CHAPTER 5

  "I'm sorry sir, but here in country G we have a speed limit and I can't go past that speed,"the driver said.

  "Stop the car!!" Justin ordered.

  "But sir we're not there yet and...."

  "I said stop the car," Justin ordered.

  "But Justin...."Ana was interrupted by Justin.

  "Stop the car or I'll seize your license," Justin threatened the driver and the driver stopped the car.

  "Get out!!" Justin ordered as he got out of the passengers seat.

  "But Justin you..."

  "Ana, shut up!!" Justin said. He pulled the driver out of the car and threw some money at him."Take that and go home," Justin said.

  "Thank you sir,"the driver said and left.

  "But Justin, you..." Justin started the car at maximum speed limit.

  "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah,"Ana screamed as she swung from left to right in the car.

  "Use your seatbelt, that's what it's for," Justin said not reducing the speed limit.

  "Yes,"Ana stuttered, she quickly put on her seatbelt and sighed of relief. She looked at the mirror in the car and saw that her hair was now a mess."Oh geez"

  "We're here," Justin said and the car came to a halt.

  "We...we are here?"Ana stuttered. She was definitely scared of getting back into the house.

  Justin got out of the driver's seat and opened the door for Ana.

  "Justin, I don't think it'll be a good idea for me to come with you"Ana said trying to avoid going into the house.

  "Ana, don't be scared. I'm here for you" Justin said and extended his hand.

  Ana sighed before taking his hands and coming out of the car.

  "It'll be alright, say it," Justin said as they walked into the house.

  "It'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright,"Ana chanted as they walked into the house.

  "Sonya!!"Alex yelled.

  "Sir!!"Sonya replied as she came down.

  "Can you tell me why you did what you did?"Alex asked furiously.

  "Do...do what?"Sonya asked scared.

  "You ask me what?"Alex asked and gave her a slap which made her cry."You went behind my back and got that woman released?"

  "I.... I didn't do anything sir. I didn't, I promise,"Sonya lied crying.

  "You foolish woman, you..."Alex said and made to hit her.

  "You hit her, you die!!" Justin walked in.

  Alex turned to see who had the guts to threaten him.

  "You?"Alex asked turning to Justin.

  "Yes, me. If you hit her, I'll have the martinis arrest you and seize everything you own," Justin said

  "Wow wow wow. Finally, I knew this day would come." he turned to Ana."So you finally brought your lover home to threaten me."

  "Alex I..."Ana tried to defend herself

  "Keep quiet!!!"Alex yelled."Did you think I'll believe he's from the martinis?"

  "But...He is from the martinis and..."Ana tried to say.

  "Well then, have you ever seen his ID card? Because if you have, I'd like to see it too"Alex said.

  "I don't have to show you my ID card," Justin said.

  ''then it means you're a fake. If you were real, you'd show me your ID card,"Alex said not blinking.

  "Ok then, . ." he brought out his card."Here you go" he showed Alex.

  Alex was shocked. He didn't believe that Justin Balor was really from the martinis, a high ranking one at that. Now he knew he'd fked up. What would Justin do to him now? He knew Justin could seize all his wealth and put him behind bars for all he'd done with just a single phone call. Now he was scared.

  "What's wrong Alex? Are you shocked that I'm real? Now you know what I can do to you" Justin smirked and put his ID card where it belonged.

  "Please, I'm sorry Ana. I'm sorry. Will you forgive me? I don't know what came over me?"Alex begged and went to kneel in front of her.

  "Alex, what are you doing? Move away,"Ana asked, moving away from him.

  "That's not gonna save you Alex. The police will be here soon and they will be taking you away," Justin said looking at him with disgust.

  "Please Ana, I beg you to forgive me,"Alex said still on his knees.

  Ana looked at Justin and gave him the,"should I? He looks sorry,"look.

  Justin then replied him with a,"do as you please, it's your life,"look.

  "Mr Balor, we're here,"an officer and his team walked in.

  "Good!!Arrest this man on the basis of violence and murder of an innocent baby," Justin said pointing at Alex.

  Immediately Justin said that, memories of the past flashed in. Her innocent baby, he died because of this monster. Now she felt disgusted.

  "And who's baby has he murdered?"The officer asked.

  Alex looked at Ana and smiled, sure that his emotional drama had worked and he would go free

  "Mine. He has murdered my baby and assaulted me physically countless times,"Ana said.

  Alex looked at Ana, shocked. This woman now had guts.

  "They are lying sir, I have done nothing of that such,"Alex said hoping the police would believe him.

  "Sir, it's true. He always assaults anyone he comes across,"Sonya said and Alex was dumbfounded.

  He never knew that a day would come when the tables would turn on him.

  "Did you hear that? There are a lot of witnesses. Nothing can save you now, "the officer said and handcuffed him."Let's go" he said and his team took Alex away.

  Ana thought of everything that has just happened and ran up crying.

  "Ana," Justin called and went after her.

  "Ana," Justin called and went after her.

  "Don't follow me,"Ana cried and ran into her room while Justin followed her.

  "Ana?" Justin called before locking the door and going to sit beside her on the bed."Are you sad,"

  "Justin!!" she put her head on his chest and embraced him tightly which made tendrils of her hair to fall on his face.

  "Why are you crying?" Justin asked rubbing her back.

  "I'm a terrible person Justin, I am" she cried.

  Justin just admired her. He inhaled her scent and was dazzled."How can someone smell so nice despite coming out from a lock up?" he asked himself.

  "Tell me, am I such a terrible person?" she asked. Tears welled up in her eyes, causing those ocean blue eyes to glisten.

  "No Ana, you're not." Justin said. Her hair had now covered some part of her face so Justin tucked her hair behind her ear so he could get a better view of her beautiful face.

  Ana kept on saying things that Justin couldn't hear. Not because she wasn't loud enough, but because he was mesmerized by her beauty.

  "Justin, Justin,"Ana said but Justin was still lost in her beauty."are you listening to me?" she said and snapped her fingers.

  "Yes?" Justin asked.

  "Are you even listening to me?" she asked and wiped her tears.

  "Yes, yes. I was," Justin lied.
