Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Presently at a restaurant…..

Mark and Diana were having the best of their time, enjoying the breakfast and chit chatting. After Mark paid the bills, they left and immediately they exited they bar, Clancy bumped into them. She was carried away by what she was doing on her phone.

“Hey! Look where you’re going!!-” Mark initially heard himself say out loudly and it ended quietly and gently.

“Clancy? The lady she left at the alter?” He thought he must be seeing things but the again she had come back to Sterling City as a reputable powerful attorney and eventually Diana hired her to help her with the case of her children.

“Hi!” Diana greeted Clancy who was equally shocked as Mark. Her face trying to regain composure but the crystal clear images from that night wouldn’t easily let it.

“Hi???” Clancy stuttered, trying to respond to Diana.

Diana being quite a sensitive lady could actually discern something was bothering her at the moment thus she offered, “Anything the issue? Are you fine? Mind if I help – ?”

“Salute!” An officer came over and saluted, his salute disrupted what Diana was going to say. The officer was obviously Mark’s driver.

Clancy remembered….”oh yea, he is the president general now! Over time she had always checked up on the news feed about Mark as she missed him alot.”

Diana ignoring the fact an officer had just interrupted her vocal offer request, she moved closer to Clancy whose face is burying too many emotions.

“No no no!” Clancy said and walked out. Diana could see tears dripping down her cheeks as she walked out.

For a moment, Mark was momentarily stunned. It took him few minutes to regain back his composure.

“Yea, yea…” He stammered… And started of towards the parking lot. Diana followed behind closely wondering what it’s.. “do they know each other?”

Sooner they were back at the military base…Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As Mark stepped out of the car, Richarlison walked up to him immediately, it seemed he has been waiting for him already.

With no hesitation he broke out, “I think Danny might still be living….”

Mark looked at him coldly. The fact he was not in good mood was a partial explanation. The scars of the guilty of leaving a lady abandoned at the alter had started to bleed like fresh wounds again.

“Danny? Tell me that later…. Not in a good mood!” Mark explained and Richarlison nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, the triads had reposted a mail inviting the president general over. The last mail they posted was not honoured and they deemed it fit to repost another one to him. “Maybe it skipped him…”

Mark was in his room when he received the message, alongside was a warning notice that he must show up the day they requested for the meeting to be held.

Diana was at home patiently waiting for her kids, it already passed their closing time, yet they were not home. Every single mother or parents would change their children’s school considering what happened few weeks back, some mafias’ came into the school and made away with the strands of hair from the kids and hurt them, but Diana was different. She didn’t change their school since it was the only school that can handle her kids intellect.

However , the schools security had been stepped up drastically.

Presently, Diana was worried, since her kids had a driver, there were no need for her to go all the way to go pick them up and they ought to have returned back from school by this time. “What was keeping the driver?” She wondered as her heart began to skip fearfully.

She walked up to her resident house entrance and was looking at the road that led there hoping to get a glimpse of the car, she would obviously recognize the car and by seeing it she would be free from her worries.

Exactly about three minutes later of her standing and looking down the road that led to her abode, she finally caught a glimpse of the car and he was plying at high speeds, even in the military base? Why would anyone be moving at high speed in the military base? And the speed is probably too unsafe for her kids inside. Like a drunk racing driver or like he was being car-chased, the driver zoomed closer and upon seeing Diana he matched the brake with all his possible strength and the car screeched before coming a halt. The engines roared, smokes from the exhaust were much and the car was obviously radiating heat as it’s been on a rigorous work.

The driver, Officer Luke stepped out of the car immediately.

“General, General Diana…. Your kids are nowhere to be found. I got to their school and was told some men who proved they were from the military base and was sent by president general, came to pick them up….” He said tirelessly as he walked towards Diana with his sweaty face.

“And I think they have been kidnapped… I placed a call over to the president general to confirm and Richarlison said nothing of such happened!” Officer Luke added.

“What are you saying? Are you drunk? ” Diana tried to shout but the strength to shout had suddenly varnished. She thought, “yes I was out with the president general for breakfast and we spent a good time together. When did he requested? Oh no? My kids have been kidnapped! She exclaimed, her heart skipping fearfully.

In the next moment, a maybach Mercedes Benz zoomed into the entrance as well and two men alighted. They were both tall and handsome, only that one was taller than the other and that was Mark. Mark an Richarlison had just arrived. They didn’t send anyone to go pick up the kids from school and they already confirmed some men came in the pretence that they were sent by the president general and picked the kids from school. Such skilled men that had their ID’s confirmed.

The school principal didn’t bother placing a call over to check if truly the president general sent them since the men clouded in full military gears were too real to be fake.

Once Diana saw Mark and Richarlison she cried out at once, she has been trying to hold back her tears convincing herself that she was merely dreaming.

“Sir! My kids are missing- do you know where they’re? Tell me you sent those men?”

“I don’t-” Mark replied coldly with a blank facial expression. He looked at officer Luke who was afraid for his life and on need not be a genius to know the kids has indeed been kidnapped by someone.
