The moment I met you (Chapter 279)

By Nightengale Ben-Onyeukwu 




‘We were sent by…’one of them began to speak.                                           

‘By who?’Felix’s eyes darkened, as he asked coldly. ‘Who sent you?’

‘Her last name is Nnaji and she is rich and from a powerful home, that’s all I can say,’ the man said, biting his lips for spilling the beans.                                                                                                                                             

‘Why should I believe you?’Felix asked coldly.                                   

‘Because that’s the truth.’

‘Oh, I see, it must be Jessica,’Felix muttered. ‘But why would she send men to go after Chioma.’ Before Felix left, he turned and said to them, ‘There is, however one thing I can promise you people, you’ll not leave this place until the culprit is caught!’                                                           

The men were shocked. What does Felix mean? Does he not really have the intention to set them free? Is this some kind of joke? They will be set free only when the culprit was caught? Jessica was from a formidable background. It will be difficult to drag her to the station. They couldn’t just betray her by giving information about her to Felix or to the police. There are so many Nnajis in the country, and finding the real mastermind out of the hundreds of people bearing that name would be impossible.  But then, Felix was a man with multiple connections. It was possible to find anyone he wanted to find.                                  

Felix coldly left the detention cell. Just as he stepped out of the side door, he spotted Andrew speaking to a police officer.                                  

When Andrew saw Felix he went to him. He was exceptionally grateful for what Felix had done, ‘Thank you Sir for making sure those mobsters were caught.’                                                                  

Felix’s eyes slightly twitched as he let out a smirk, ‘Young man, did you think I will let anyone bully my woman?’ He went to his sports car, opening the door; he turned to Andrew and said, ‘Get in.’
