Mysterious Night Stand With A Pimp Turned Mogul by John Rice (novel24 TXT) 📖

Chapter 40

It was dark and Ida was getting irritated by the sound of beep that kept on repeating itself on sequence. Due to this beep, she was forced to open her eyes and when she did, she turned around and realized it was the monitor.

 

She looked around the room and realized that it was an hospital and wondered how she got herself here. Suddenly, a wave of headache hit her and she remembered what had happened. She had tried to get a sit, when she began to feel dizzy.

 

The door opened and a much familiar face stepped inside with a white gown and a handbook in his hand. Ida gasped when she realized who was standing before her.

 

"Hello Ida. First of all I want to say I am sorry for allowing you pass through that stuff you did. I had one of the maid sedate your drink and that was the only way we could capture you"

 

"Capture? Did you say capture?" Ida asked confused.

 

"Ofcourse. I needed to keep you alive as a bait for i know my brother would find you and I would get to the next phase of my plan just when he shows up" Wayne laughed for a moment.

 

"Why are you doing this? Why do you chose to hurt your brother so much? He has gone through hell because of you and the family and now you still want to be a pain for him?" Ida didn't know why she was defending Ben, but she felt like it was necessary.

 

"Listen young lady, there things that you don't know and I would advise that you keep your mouth shut" Wayne warned sternly.

 

"Tell me, let me in on those things that I don't know, I want to know them. I want have a glimpse at his past" Wayne smirked, he knew that if Ida got to know about Ben's past, she could loose interest in him. But regardless, he was going to tell her everything.

 

"Ben is a murderer" Ida raised her eyebrow, not fully understanding the rationale of having to call his own twin a murderer. "Beau, Ben's child once had a mother called Amelia. She was a gorgeous woman and we used to think Ben loved her. The day she died, Ben had killed her by hitting her to the chair and she bleed to death. Beau was only but a year old back then" Ida couldn't believe what she was listening to. The entire tale didn't add up and only hoped that the truth be figured out if truly Ben would come looking for her.

 

Ben was a mess, he never imagined that the kidnap of Ida would ever happen and thus, this triggered him to send all his soliders out there to look for her. He didn't know who had done this, but he knew that once he laid hands on the person, they would be done for.

 

While thinking through the entire scene of that day, a memory flashed before his very eye. While trying to get the nurses to get her into a stretcher, he had noticed a familiar face. Ben was trying to connect all the dots together, when he realized that the nurse he had seen was Ida's sister. Thus whoever had kidnapped her, had a connection with Ida's sister.

 

"Boss, I think we got a clue" Ben turned around to see Perry standing with two soldiers by his side.

 

"What sort of clue is this clue that you have to show me?" Ben enquired, looking really agitated to hear the news.

 

"The ambulance and every nurse that day have an affliation with your twin brother" That was exactly the dots that Ben had been trying to connect. It was obvious that Ida's sister and Wayne his brother worked together to kidnap Ida and upon second thought, he became visibly angry, remembering the fact that Wayne had told him subtly in their last encounter that he would reveal his past to Ida. 

 

"Very well then, gather the men and let's get going. I think it's officially time to put an ending to this menace that Wayne is trying to create" Ben quickly grabbed his phone and head out of his mansion, with his soldiers all behind him.

Ida was about making a statement towards Wayne, when the door opened yet again and this time her sister Janie stepped foot into the room..

 

"I should have known you would be part of this conspiracy" Ida stated with so much hatred laced on her tone.

 

"Listen here Ida, we both know that you have never been my favourite person from day one. I hated you with so much passion and thus I want to cut every single thing that would bring joy into your life. Like I did with your baby and your beloved husband" Ida was visibly pissed, she felt like jumping out of the bed and shredding Jane to pieces for trying to resurrect old wounds.

 

"Here is something else you need to know that I figured out recently. The one man you slept with, that caused you to be pregnant was Ben" Ida froze for a minute, trying to understand what her sister had just said.

 

"On that fateful day, I found him outside the party and talked him into having sex with you and he fell for it. He didn't collected a single cash from me and that was how the entire situation in your life started. This means that the actual father of your dead baby is Ben" Ida felt like crying as she clearly understood why there had been some sort of connection between herself and Beau at first sight. Even though she wasn't the mother of Beau, the boy saw so many trait that a mother would possess in her and wanted her immediately.

 

Janie was about to make another statement, when the door burst open and four soldiers round up, while Wayne swiftly and rushed over to Ida's bed with gun placed on her head.

 

"I should have known you were behind this Wayne. Now I am ordering you to let her go now!" Ben was visibly angry and felt like killing his twin brother. Wayne wouldn't faze a bit and when Ben turned his face to match Ida's own, she was already in tears and this broke his heart.

 

"Listen Ida, don't listen to whatever Wayne told you. I am not a murderer, I never murdered my wife. We only had a squabble and when I tried to reconcile with her, she flinched and in that process struck her head to a wood and she died. I have been living with the guilt all my life to you came by. I am sorry I acted cold towards you. Beau really saw something in you that day and I didn't realize what it was till these past few days. You remind me of Amelia" Ida felt emotional, listening to Ben speak.
