Chapter 25
The man went straight to the confinement area and found the door locked. He brought out a master key from his waist purse and opened the door.
He walked in and saw Aurora laid on the floor unconscious. He carried her across his shoulder and came out. He quietly locked the door. He went through the back gate and slipped away without anyone knowing.
At the back gate a car was waiting for them. As soon as he laid Aurora in the back seat, Eli Rowan sighed and took his seat beside Mario and the latter stepped on the accelerator and zoomed off.
Meanwhile the whole prison was left in darkness. The head of the security groped in the darkness as he tried to reach the switch. He had to raise an alarm to keep the securities at alert in case of a prison break.
The Jailer who was busy enjoying the meal that Eve Diego brought stopped when there was a Sudden power outage. She groped through the darkness towards the door. Why was there a Sudden power failure? This has never happened in years.
Soon the light came on again as everyone sighed in relief. It was less than thirty minutes but the police unit had been informed.
The Security accompanied the jailer to check on the prisoners and found they were all in their cell. The prisoners started yelling at them calling them incompetent scum. But no one remembers that there’s another prisoner to be checked on at the confinement.
Mario drove Eli Rowan and the unconscious Aurora back to the hotel room. Eli placed Aurora on the bed and transferred some money to Mario.
Mario glanced at his phone asi chirped and was amazed at Mr Eli ‘s generosity. He had transferred into his account over a 1million dollars against the half a million he had promised. He was happy and bowed his head in appreciation.
“No one else must know about what happened tonight. Otherwise you will lose your family and replace her in jail” Eli threatened the man.
“I’ve never met you sir, what are you talking about?” Mario replied. How was he Supposed to blow his own cover? If this incident is exposed, he only will go down because this man is rich and he’s not from this country. He could easily return to his country.
Eli was pleased with Mario’s reply. He gave a slight nod with no expression on his face. “I need a nurse, how can I get one with sealed lips?”. Mario smiled and said he could get him one in a couple of minutes. As for whether she can be trusted, he need not worry because the nurse is his wife.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Eve Diego was taken to the hospital. The ceremony ended when she tripped. She was admitted, because her ankle was swollen and hurting her.
When the swollen ankle was X-rayed, it showed a minor fracture. She looked ugly with her slightly swollen nose. Her complexion has turned red as tears run down her cheeks.
She was advised by the sales girl at the boutique to choose another gown that the one she had chosen was too long for her. But how can she let go of the latest dress made by Dave. She must wear it, after all she can hold it stylishly while walking.
Now her engagement was ruined. After all she had put in place to get Aurora out of the way and Santiago willingly agreed to the engagement. Will Santiago be willing to reschedule the engagement after her recovery?.
Eve Diego’s parents were by her side. They had just returned from seeing Palmer and grandpa Axel off. They were sorry about what happened and apologized on behalf of Santiago’s nonchalant attitude.
Santiago simply walked away leaving Tola Diego and her daughter at the mercy of the reporters. Without giving the reporters a chance to throw questions at him he went to his car and the ever ready Jasper Milo simply handled the steering and drove him off.
It was obvious to everyone present that President Axel was only fulfilling an obligation and not celebrating .
The Diego’s cannot express how disappointed they were. The few people present made some unpleasant comments which all featured Caden Diego wanting to force his daughter on a man that had no feelings for her.
