Chapter 2 A night with a stranger

Chapter two

The hired lady got to the doorstep, She was about to open the door when her cell phone rang, she brought it out from the bag and picked it up immediately after she saw the caller ID.

"Hello?" she said and suddenly went stunned."W-w-what happened to her?" she panicked."What hospital? I will be right there". she hung up and ran back to the bar and couldn't find Theo, she tried calling him but his number wasn't going through, she decided to let it go and rushed out.

Jayden woke up still feeling dizzy and his body began to react to the drugs, he manage to stand up and stagger to the doorstep, he opened it to get out, and he immediately caught sight of a lady walking in his direction, he had no option than to pull the lady inside the room. When he finally woke up the next morning, he wonder how he got to this room, he sat upright on the bed trying to remember what happened but his brain was blurred at that moment, he turned to the other side of the bed and found a blood stain on the bed and suddenly his brain started recollecting that he slept with someone but he doesn't know who, he picks up his clothes on the floor and worn it before he called his driver to come pick him up.

He was still pondering on it in his office when his cell phone rang, he picked it up.

"Any information?" he asked and there was a pause."I don't care how you do it, I want the information about what happened that night". he said and hung up.

Maya was seated on the bar looking lonely and paled, Mia came over to see her mood.

"Are you okay, Maya?". she asked, and Maya sighed.

" Am fine".

"You don't look fine to me, by the way, why didn't you come to the bar the other night?".

" Um, yeah, something came up and I had to go". she lied.

"Really? What happened? Is your aunt alright?". she asked tensely.

" Yeah, is nothing too serious, but it's fine". she smiles forcedly and Mia stares confusedly at her.

"You know you can't hide anything from me, tell me what is bothering you?". she asked coaxing her to talk.

Jayden was in his office checking out the mail of the day when someone knock on the door and it was his secretary.

" Sir, here are the files you requested for ". she places them on the table in front of him. " anything else sir?" she asked and he signal her with his hand for her to leave and she left with a bow.

Some minutes later, Theo and Ryan walked into Jayden's office to see him standing near the window, and was on call.

"Good, I want all the full details about that night". he hung up and turn to see his brothers sitting on the sofa, he walks up to them and sat down.

" Hey big bro, how is it going?". Ryan asked.

"Who were you talking to?".Theo asked.

" Someone I hired to get some information for me about something". he replied.

"What? Is Lucas striking again?" Ryan asked. Lucas is their family's worst enemy, Lucas's father Wyatt, and Williams happen to be best friends during their time, they both work in the mafia world and hold the highest rank in the underworld, But at times goes on, greediness and jealousy paved the way into Wyatt's heart, he wanted to be the most fearless and richest of them all, he got in connection with the bad mafia who ship in bad drugs into the country and even scamming and killing innocent people in other to take their position, When Williams finds out the dirty things Wyatt was doing, he confronted him but he didn't listen. Williams had no choice but to shut down his legal business and kill all his men, when Wyatt finds out what he had done, he decided to rain war against him after he was kicked out of the underworld, he left to start his own mafia and vow to make Williams suffer for what he did to him and even trained his son to be like him. They have tried to attack the Williams family but Jayden was always one step ahead of them in ruining their plans.

"No, is the information about what happened to me that night". he said.

" Really? Are you still on with that?"Theo said nonchalantly.

"Of course I am". he stood up quickly and wandered around for a while before his gaze landed on Theo.

" What? Why are you staring at me like that?". he asked.

"Why do I have this feeling that you are hiding something away from me? Do you guys know what happens to me that night?". he asked.

" How many times do I have to tell you that we don't know, I remember you stood up to leave that night and -- " he got interrupted.

"Really? How come I woke up the next day in the lounge and I find a blood stain on the bed sheet with me completely naked on the bed". he said.

" Maybe you slept with someone that night and took her pride". Ryan said.

"Exactly, you finally got laid". Theo giggle.

" Is not funny, if I was in the right frame of mind, you know I won't do that, I don't know how I end up in that room and why I have to get that woman to lay with me".

"That's because you were under the influence of alcohol". Theo said.

" I didn't drink that much, something is wrong, I know I wasn't myself that night immediately I..." he pauses and they stare at him.

"Do you remember now?" Ryan asked.

"Yes," he said and stare hard at Theo who gulped nervously."Theo did you add something to my drink?" he questioned.

"Don't be ridiculous, why will I add something to your drink". he said.

" Then how come I suddenly got dizzy after drinking that drink you brought for us".

"You are being dramatic, I didn't add something to your drink, you are only confused right now".

" Oh really? If I find out what happened to me has everything to do with you". he scoffs." you will be sorry". he threatened and Theo scoff.

Mia was consoling Maya after she told her what happened, they were in the staff room.

"Oh my gosh, this is so bad, do you know who he is?" Mia asked.

"No, I didn't even see his face". she sniffs.

" This is an act of rape, he needs to serve jail for it". Mia said angrily.

"I don't think the whole thing was his fault, I could smell alcohol in his mouth that night".

" And so? if he knows he can't handle himself when drunk, why does he have to drink". she sighs sadly." we need to find him and make him pay for what he did to you, he took advantage of you".

"How do we find him? I can only recognize him by his voice and touch" she said.

"Really? That is a good start, how about we check the CCTV to see if we can find anything".

" You think so?"

"yeah, let's see if we can find anything". she helps her up and they walk away. a few minutes later, they came out of the CCTV room looking paled." this is strange, what do we do now? I guess he erased everything that night". she said, and Maya sigh tiredly."don't worry, I know he will come back".They walk away.

The next morning, Jayden enter his office with his secretary walking behind him and she read his schedule for him.

"Anything else sir?" she asked.

"No, you can go". he said, and she bow to him and left. just then his cell phone rang and he picked up." did you find anything?" he asked and there was a pause." send it to my email now"he hung up, and soon his phone beeped and he glance through it and play a video of the clip of his brother taking him to the room, he grunts sadly and hit his hand on the table."Damn you Theo!".

Theo enter his car and order his driver to take him to his company, just then his phone rang, and he noticed the caller was the girl he hired that night.

"Hey, what happened to you? Have been trying to call you". he said on the phone and the lady's voice came through the other end.

" Am sorry mr William, I was very busy".

"Is ok, anyway congratulation on a job well done". he said smiling.

" How do you mean sir?" she asked confusedly

"I am talking about that night with my brother".

" Oh, am sorry Mr. William, but it didn't happen, something came up that night and I had to rush back home,".she said, and Theo went surprised.

"I don't understand, do you mean to tell me you didn't meet with my brother that night?"

"Yes sir, I came back to the bar to look for you but you were already gone, that's why I am calling to ask you for another chance". she said.

" Oh my, if she isn't the girl Jayden was with that night, then who?" he questioned himself

"Sir, are you still there?"

"yes, you know what, I will get back to you". he hung up and was staring into spaces, his phone rang, and he noticed the caller ID and froze in shock." Jayden? Why is he calling me? Did he maybe find out what happened to him?" he asked and then refused to pick up, then he makes a phone call across Ryan." meet me at that bar, right now". he hung up and asked the driver to drive to the bar. A few minutes later they arrived at the bar along with Ryan who drove in a while ago.

"What happened? Why are we here?". Ryan asked as they went inside.

" Something came up and I think I am going to be dead before tomorrow". he said and Ryan was confused, soon they met the manager and he walk them to the CCTV room.

"What are you talking about?".

" I guess Jayden find out about the other night and guess what, the girl I hired wasn't the one Jayden lay with that night". he explained.

"What? Are you serious?".

" yes, we need to find out who the girl was before Jayden does". he said and turn to the security guy in charge." did you get rid of that video the other night?" he asked.

"Not really sir, you asked me to wait for your signal before I can get rid of it". he replied.

" Ok, did anyone come here to ask for the video of that night?"Theo asked and the security guy hesitate for a while.

"Yes sir". he answered and they went surprised.

" Oh no, it must be big bro". Ryan said.

"Who was it?" he asked.

"it was two people actually, the first was a guy, but I told him the CCTV cameras were faulty that day, and we had to turn it off". he said.

"Good, who was the other person?".

" It was two girls actually, they are staff". he said.

"Really? Why will they be looking for the CCTV cameras?". Ryan asked confusedly and Theo sighed tiredly.

" You know what, play the video". he orders and the guy plays the video clip of that night on how they took Jayden to the room and how the girl he hired rushed off after getting a call, and then a moment later, it shows a lady along the hallway and was being dragged into the room by Jayden.

"Oh my, who is that girl?". Ryan asked confusedly.

" Take it back and Zoom the girl's face for me ". he said and the security did as he was told, he zooms the picture. " Do you know her?" He asked the security guy

"Yes sir, she works here". he replied and they sighs confusedly.

" Gosh, we are doomed". Ryan said."what is going to happen if Big Bro finds out the girl he had that night was just a common waitress here". he added.

"Get rid of the video now ". he order and it was deleted immediately. " Good". he left with Ryan.

"What do we do now?" Ryan asked and then his phone rang, he saw the caller ID."big bro is calling".

"Pick it up".

" Ok," he picks up the call and Jayden's voice came up angrily.

"Where the hell are you? Is Theo there with you?". he asked.

" Um, no-- he got interrupted.

"Don't you dare lie to me!" he yelled and Theo drag the phone from him and answered it.

"Hey, Bro, what's up?".

" Theo, you are going to get paid for what you did".

"I know, but I didn't do anything wrong". he answered.

" I will get you, where the hell are you?". he asked.

"At home with Mom and Dad". he hung up and handed over the phone back to Ryan." let's go home, Mom and Dad are the only people that can save us from his wrath".he said they enter their cars, and they drove off.
