Painful seduction

” Will you stop staring and come help me here?” Cindy asked, beckoning to Nelly who sat comfortably on a cushion.

Nelly got up in a flare, and walked towards Cindy . She held her hands immediately she got to her and asked,

“Who are you?”

” Is that really important now? He’s going to die if you don’t call the ambulance.” Cindy tried to protest.

” Forget about him and answer my question.”

” Who do I look like?”

” You can’t be Cathy? Cathy left here two hours ago and this birthmark, it’s only on Cindy.”

What was she saying? Has Cathy really gone to meet her? But why couldn’t she find her?

” Did Cathy really come out to meet me?” Cindy asked again, this time not certain she heard Nelly right the first time.

” Meet you? What are you talking about?”

” No…she went to see Alexia…are you…? She stopped halfway after realizing it wasn’t possible.

“I will answer all your questions when we get him to the hospital.”

“I don’t know?”

” Have he suffered from this before?”

” No…I don’t know. He’s Mr. Anderson, Cathy’s Father-in-law.”

That’s Axl’s father, shs muttered to herself.

He was the same man who had taken her to the fake orphanage and had paid the woman to take care of her. She couldn’t believe the same person who had tried to hurt her was now the same person who was lying in front of her. Honestly, she had questions but those questions could wait.

She brought out her phone to call an ambulance but then they required an address, she wasn’t sure of the address so she handed the phone to Nelly.

” Speak to them! Tell them the address!” She ordered, Nelly obeyed and returned the phone to her afterwards.

” You need to tell me who you are. ”

“Easy Nelly. Once we get to the hospital.”

“How do you know my name?”

“I’ve seen you before. That reminds me, I can’t find Cathy anywhere. Where’s she?”

” Cathy isn’t around, she has gone to see a friend.”

” When did she leave, we were supposed to meet at a coffee shop.”

” She left more than two hours ago and what’s the talk about both of you seeing?

“I called Cathy this morning to meet up with her.”

“But she said it was Alexia.”

” My name is Cindy and I don’t remember know who Alexia is.” She lied.

She didn’t want to talk about the truth until she saw Cathy, she made up her mind to tell Cathy the truth only after that she could tell the others.

Nelly went into one of the rooms while Cindy continually tapped her phone screen in an anxious manner, she didn’t know what to do about Mr. Anderson and Nelly didn’t seem to care, plus the ambulance was taking long to get here.

Did Nelly even give them the correct address?

Meanwhile as Nelly went inside, she watched from a distance to check if the lookalike of Cindy had any evil intentions and she also came to the room to get her phone to call Cathy.

Only when Cathy comes will she find out what was really going in, she thought.

She dialed the number and it was switched off, that was really strange. All through the time she lived with Cathy her phone has never been switched off. She tried again and it was the same thing then sge began to worry. Nelly walked back to where Cathy was and requested her phone,

” What for?”

” To call Cathy.”

” It’s switched off already, I told you we were to meet in a coffee shop, I got there and waited patiently for two hours for her arrival but she failed.

Hearing Cindy’s explanation made her more scared. She didn’t want to believe that anything happened to her cousin, Cathy.

” When were you supposed to see her?”

” We arranged for 8am, I got there by 7:30 am and it’s 11 am already.”

“That’s impossible. Hold on I will call the office.”

” Chester’s Enterprise. How can we help you?”

” This is Nelly. Cousin to Cathy Chester.”

” Ma’am, we are really sorry.”

” Forget the formalities, Have you seen Cathy?”

” No ma’am. She hasn’t been to the office.”

” Are you sure about this?”

” I won’t lie to you ma’am. I’m more certain.”

She ended the call just in time, they heard the siren from the ambulance. Cindy was glad but Nelly didn’t look bothered by whatever happened. The doctors and nurses entered with a stretcher and carried Me. Anderson.

” You will have to come with us to the hospital for his health information.”

” We are right behind you. I will drive because I can’t stand a patient undergoing treatment.” Cindy answered.

They rolled the stretcher away and Cindy followed but she was surprised when she didn’t hear Nelly’s footsteps. She turned back and found her still standing there.

” What afd you still doing? I don’t know anything about him.”

” I have to find Cathy. She might be in danger.”

“Can you at least fill the information in the hospital and I’m sure Cathy is fine.”

” I’m sure you’re responsible for her disappearance and also for Mr. Anderson’s heart attack.”

” Really? I didn’t tell him to have a heart attack and why didn’t you get a heart attack. You haven’t seen me too.”

” Don’t play smart with me.”

” I’m not playing smart. I’m just telling you the truth.”

” Who are you?”

” You still don’t know? I’m Cindy Chester, the daughter of Chester.” She uttered with boldness that scared Nelly.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

” Let’s go now. Once we ensure that Mr. Anderson is fine then we can look for Cathy.”

Nelly said nothing, she had no option than to accept Cindy’s request. Just like Cathy, Mr. Anderson’s life was also important to her.

” I’m not with my car keys.”

” I have my car. Pick up whatever and we can go.”

She picked up her purse after ensuring there were notes and her credit card. She left the house after Instructing the maid to give her a call once Cathy showed up at home. Before they came out the ambulance had already left but a nurse was sitting outside waiting for them.

Both ladies apologized for making the nurse wait, they both entered the car with the nurse in the back seat. Cindy started the Car and drive off with the nurse giving her instructions.

” Your reckless driving reminds me of so someone.”

” Cathy?”

” No, Axl. He’s Cathy’s husband.” Nelly answered.

Her face became dull immediately.
