The scream
“That might not be his real name but that’s the name he told us” Audrey added and Hannah nodded in response.
“You all should rest, I’ll ask the maid to prepare something for you guys, you don’t have to worry, I will find Jayden, alright,” Hannah said and the kids nodded in response.
“Brandon asked the Butler to dismiss all the house help. I will help them prepare something, ” Jessica said and Hannah nodded in response and muttered a thank you before walking out of the children’s room to the living room.
She found out Brandon was no longer there, she decided to call him and he said he was coming.
Not quite long, Brandon arrived and Hannah stared at him for some seconds before speaking.
“It’s Jayden, he’s missing. I think someone else took him. And the kids said the person who took him goes by the name Jones” Hannah said
“We can’t just go out there and start searching for someone with the name Jones. There are a lot of people who go by the name Jones” Brandon said
“What do we do now?” Hannah asked worriedly.
“If they can remember what the man looks like, I can call someone so they can give a proper description of Jones’s looks, so he can draw out their description. We could find out who the Jones is” Brandon said and Hannah sighed softly.
She was trying to keep calm. But she’s a woman and a mother, she can’t just keep calm knowing her son is out there and might be feeling hurt.
“The kids are tired and they need rest, it’s late already, we can do that tomorrow right?” Hannah asked and Brandon went dead silent.
He wondered who had taken Jayden.
“Sure, you should rest too,” Brandon said and Hannah burst into tears. Brandon moved towards her and pulled her into a warm hug.
“We are going to find him alright? He’s going to be fine” Brandon said and pulled away from the hug and held Hannah’s hand taking her to her room.
He helped Hannah sit on the bed.
“I know you must be hungry, I will go prepare something for you,” Brandon said and with that, he walked out of the room to the kitchen.
There he met Jessica cooking. He stood for some seconds and stared at her before walking fully inside the kitchen.
Jessica turned and saw her brother opening the fridge.
“You can’t continue to avoid me forever,” Jessica said to Brandon and he didn’t say a word.
“I apologized a million times already, what else do you want me to do? I am sorry” Jessica said and then Brandon turned to her.
“This is not the right time for this, Jessica,” he said and Jessica sighed softly.
“No time is always the right time,” Jessica said and rolled her eyes at him.
Just then Brandon heard his phone ring, it was a call from Liam. He answered the phone call and spoke.
“I will be there in a jiffy,” he said and ended the call and then turned to Jessica.
“Can you please help me put up one or two things together for Hannah to eat, I have something to attend to” he said and Jessica rolled her eyes but then she nodded in agreement.
Brandon then walked out of the kitchen. Jessica prepared the meal and made sure the kids were well-fed, before putting them to sleep. It wasn’t that difficult because they had already taken their bath and felt sleepy.
She then took a plate of food to Hannah’s room, where she met Hannah already asleep. She sighed softly as she stared at her.
She dropped the food on the table and covered her properly with the duvet.
Just then she saw Hannah’s phone ring. It was a call from her mom. She had wanted to answer the phone call but she decided not to.
She then walked out of the room, closing the door behind her. She sighed softly and just then she saw Brandon and Liam walk inside Brandon’s study room, with a strange guy (Michael Adams).
They looked so busy. She just hopes they find Jayden in time and that he isn’t hurt.

Meanwhile, David is seen in his room trying to plug his phone so it would charge, so he can be able to call Jayden’s parents.
He was so worried about them and hoped they were okay. Just then his door burst open and his grandma walked in making him shocked, the phone in his hands fell on the ground making it break.
“What are you doing David? I thought I asked you to go to bed” Rosa said as she entered the room and saw David’s phone on the ground.
She picked it up and saw it was already broken.
She had wanted to shout at him but she sighed softly as she noticed David was looking at her with fear in his eyes.
“Your daddy isn’t home yet, you should rest alright. I have been trying to call him but he hasn’t been answering his phone call. I hope he’s okay” Rosa thought and helped David lay on the bed.
She covered him properly with the blanket and pat his head.
“Grandma” David called
“Yes David” she responded.
“I miss my mommy. I wish I could see her one more time. I hope she’s fine wherever she is”

It was morning and a brand new day, Rhoda had woken up so early and went to the lab to get the test results.
She opened it and to her surprise, it stated Brandon was the biological father of Jayden, which means he’s the father of the octuplets.
What the heck?!, this means only one thing, Hannah was the woman Brandon had raped years ago and the octuplets were the result of it.
she thought and then decided to go back home. On getting home she met Liam walking out of her house. He was leaving.
She felt so nervous and scared the moment she saw him.
“I came just now and I didn’t see you at home, where did you go to?” Liam asked and Rhoda stared at him looking nervous.
“What are you doing here?” Rhoda asked rudely.
“I came to collect some files I forgot here the other day and I was just about to leave, don’t eat me raw” Liam said as he notice the look on Rhoda’s face.
He wondered what was wrong with her, she looks like she was trying to hide something. He wondered what it was, he thought but then he quickly shook off the thoughts.
He hopped inside his car and started going through the files to see if it was complete. He needed to make sure everything in the office was in place, he couldn’t afford for words to go out that Brandon’s stepson is missing.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
It’s going to raise a big scandal and their investors might begin to call and say if he can not protect his family, how would he be able to protect his business?
Brandon had asked him to go to the company and made sure everything was in place, while they looked for Jayden.
He then noticed the files were not complete, meaning he must have left the rest in Rhoda’s sitting room.
He climbed out of the car and then walked inside the sitting room when he suddenly heard a scream.
