The Billionaire Secret Admirer

Chapter 45



They handcuffed the guy, I pointed at the place that his gun fell. The cops retrieved the gun and lead the guy outside.

Ohio carried me to the sitting room, he placed me gently on the cushion. He called the paramedic to come immediately.

I was angry with him for arriving late with the cops.

“It took you and the cops forever to get here. Is over 30minutes I informed you about the intruders. What if they had succeeded in killing me or taking me away before you guys finally gets here? It was an emergency and needed quick responds, every second that passes was dangerous. They broke down my door and came in to attack me and could have succeeded in getting me killed or in kidnapped me as they intended. Who knows what they plan to do with me….

I was crying while scolding him.

Ohio cuddled me up to himself, apologizing for no reason.

I knew it was not his fault or the police fault, his house to this place was more than an hour drive and for him to get down within 35minutes, it means that he also risks his life on the high way just to get to me in time.

The medics came and attended to me. They were able to remove the knife from the arrested intruder’s stomach. He passed out due to excess bleeding but was resuscitated. The cops asked me few question and I answered them.

The only person I suspected that will send the thug is Jojo, and she also came to threatened me few weeks ago after she was duped by her supposed lover, Silas. I told the cops everything.

They asked me why didn’t I report to them after the threat, even Ohio was surprise when he heard that Jojo came threatening me. He asked me why I never said anything all this while. She could have being apprehended before now. I told them I did not take any of her words serious, but I understand now that she meant every one of it.

The cops said they will arrest everyone involved in the case and will also find out who really sent the thugs to my house.

I told them is no other than Jojo and I will like to go with them to her house, just to give her one resounding slap before her arrest.

I had a black eyes, broken lip, bruises on my neck and other part of my body, swollen face and ankle which I sustained from the hired thug but no internal injury or serious organ damage.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

I feel pain all over and my headache even after I was given some drugs by the medics.

The estate security revealed the armed men drove in within the day and said they were plumbers, that they were called to come and fix something in a particular house.

The estate security told the police that the men most have hanged around the estate until night came and they decided to carry out their operation.

Ohio said that I needed an urgent treatment in the hospital, following the police to arrest Jojo wasn’t necessary.

We drove to the hospital that morning and was there till noon. The news of Jojo and the second armed man’s arrest came and I felt relieved. My parents rushed down to the hospital immediately the news got to them.

Ohio stayed with me in the hospital until the following day. On the second day I was at the police station.

Jojo was in handcuffed and put in cell, I saw the second man’s face and it was strange, I have never seen him before either.

Jojo was tortured a little but she kept denying that she has nothing to do with the hired men. Jojo only agreed that she threatened me but she wasn’t the one that sent the men to come and attack me.

The men has refused to confess who really sent them, they were ready to die with the truth. Despite I still did not believe Jojo, I also suspected another person, which was Richard. And in no time Richard was also brought to the station.

He looks shock after the cops told him that he was a suspect in the attack that took place at my place. He told the cops that he has no hand in such and will never do anything like that.

Richard sound sincere and I felt he was saying the truth. If is not Jojo and Richard then who sent the men? Jojo and Richard have both denied having a hand in the attack.

Richard remained in cell but not in a handcuffs like Jojo.

Jojo was the main suspect even as investigation was still going on.

It was after more torture by the cops that one of the intruders confessed who really sent them.

It was really a shocking confession as he also stated how much they were paid which was huge amount to kidnap me and not just that. The plans was to torture me until I give up on life. The person that hired them wanted me to die slow but steady.

I was surprise, even Ohio was very shock when the man mentioned Cherry’s name. Ohio’s office secretary was behind whole thing.

He couldn’t think of a reason why Cherry will do such evil. It was unbelievable. Cherry was a sweet beautiful lady with an envious shape. She flows very well with Ohio and also with me. She was recently at my birthday party where Ohio proposed to me. Why will she want to hurt me or Ohio, it makes absolute no sense.

I just couldn’t believe it. The cops asked Ohio if he once had an intimate relationship with her before or promised her something which he did not keep.

Ohio replied that Cherry was only his secretary and she was mostly on official duty with him. She was also like a friend and he never had anything intimate to do with her. Everything about him and cherry was official except when he invited her over to the birthday and engagement party or when she decided to be extra nice to him by getting him gifts during his birthday and will always call to check him up whenever he was outside the country.

She probably made some amorous moves on him but he waves things like that off and do not give it a second thought. He was never interested in dating her or turning his office into romantic palace.

Ohio also had doubt that Cherry was behind the whole saga. He said Cherry was not capable of such evil and does not have such mind to hurt him or anyone close to him.

She was too jovial and classic to get involved in such bloody act.

The cops were out to get Cherry but she was nowhere to be found.

They released Jojo and Richard after they have written and signed an undertaking to keep their distance from me.

It was already two weeks of driving in and out of the station, hoping to get news concerning Cherry.

She was later apprehended and arrested too.

I and Ohio were at the station within hours. I was so much interested to know why Cherry of all people will want to harm me.

After listening to Cherry’s confession, I was left speechless. Who could have thought that Cherry of all people will want be dead because she was in love with Ohio and hates the fact that he proposed to me.

Cherry said she has been with Ohio for long as his secretary, and had tried to make her feeling known to him but he hardly pick interest or notice her. It was not just about being his secretary or working with him, she was also attracted to him and wanted him for herself. Her hope was that someday Ohio will be hers.

The pain, disappointment and hurt that she felt when Ohio picked interest in me couldn’t be define with words. But she was hopeful that our relationship will crash along the way.

Then Ohio decided to propose to me. That was the last straw that break the Carmel back. She couldn’t watch another woman take over Ohio who she was seriously crushing on.

That was what led her into the plan of kidnapping me. She wanted the men to torture me until I die slowly. With that she will have an edge on Ohio and be there to console him and care for him when I’m gone. Through that Ohio may decide to notice her and even see her more than his office secretary.

Cherry said she never knew that the men she hired and paid handsomely just to accomplish the task will mess the whole job up. She thought the men were professional and will do a clean job without notice.

Ohio was shock to realize what Cherry was capable of doing because of jealousy, strife and envy. Cherry said it will be hard for her to live and watch him get married to another woman.

When we were back to the house, Ohio was quiet and couldn’t utter much word for days. I have to leave him and went back to my parent’s house.
