Chapter 22 - 22. Robinah discovered her father's family organization

Robinah came back home feeling down. She had remembered what she suffered at the hands of the Gray family in her previous life. Her life had been cut shot by those people. Although they Gray corporation had gone bankrupt. She still felt it wasn't enough.

" Why are you sad?" Alex asked noticing her mood.

" I just want to finish them." She said

" Don't worry, I will help push them to the most miserable life ." They were not worth her killing them.

" By the way I need your help. I noticed you know hypnosis."

" I know, what to you need my help with?" He rarely asked her for anything.

" I need you to hypnotize someone for me. I need to find out who killed my mother." He had been looking for evidence but everything had been tampered with.

" Okay find an opportunity for me to hypnotize the person." She could do anything for him.

The following days were peaceful. The Gray family had sold their villa and rented a two bedroom apartment. They fought daily. Mr. Gray had become a gambler and a drunkard. Jessica became a prostitute while Mrs. Gray stayed home taking care of her granddaughter. They didn't even know who they had wronged.

The Luke family was also failing by the day. Samson had failed in his leadership and management. Old Mr. Luke was regretting it now . They tried contacting Alex to no avail. He was busy with his own business.

Robinah had been busy with her new business and collecting clues about her father. She already knew they run a black organization that used children as samples to stay young and change faces. Their new research was centred on transferring brains. They were nameless and faceless so far. The police force had been trying to track them down.

Before long several months had passed. Grace gave birth to a girl. Robinah had helped during the labour. Jason's sister, Joyce came back to the county to see them. She stayed for only a week before leaving. Grace was happy. She was radiating maternal love .

Their business had grown big and they were making a lot of money. Grace had decided to join the team. Robinah discussed with Alex and gave them shares. They were now partners.

" I can't wait for your birthday." Alex said one evening holding her . He had been suffering and taking cold showers since they started sharing a room.

" I almost forgot about it. It's just a week away. Are you that impatient?" He had waited for three years what was a week.

" You will not understand." She was too innocent.

" Try me."

" The things I feel like doing to you. The places I have wanted to touch but I can't because you are still young." He said hugging her tightly. " You don't how much I have been suffering." He said breathlessly. He couldn't get enough of her.

" What are you talking about." She was lost.

" You will understand soon."

" If you say so. I found a location I think should be the hide out of those creeps. I think they want my brain. My mother must have been a genius but they needed a young brain so they impregnated her to go after her child. Luckily for her, she found out but managed to save her child only to be killed."

" I have a team ready to help. They are dangerous. You can't handle them on your own." He couldn't risk loosing her. He had already made arrangements for shadow guards who had been following her and protecting her. Those creeps were making some moves.

" I will let you know when I take action." She promised knowing he was worried about her.

" The Luke family wants to partner with us. Their businesses have been failing lately. They need a strong partner to navigate through the situation." Alex let her in on what the Luke family was up to .

" I saw their emails on the platform. I don't know what their reaction will be if they find out you are the one they are trying desparately to cooperate with." It will be amusing.

" They brought everything that is happening to themselves. The Luke's have always been the number one family in Nine city. Now other small families are beginning to look down on them." Alex told her about the history of the Luke's family. Their ancestors made a fortune in mining before they started their business and went into different fields.

" Now their descendants are destroying their hard work." Robinah marvelled at how such intelligent ancestors could give birth to useless descendants who keep fighting among themselves instead of helping each other to prosper.

" I had tolerated them and worked hard while they just sat home and received dividends. They still tried to kill me just to take over. Now that they are in charge, they still can't do anything."

" Is that why your childhood sweetheart came looking for me today?"

" Who are you talking about?" He didn't remember any childhood friend not to talk of sweetheart.

" Am talking about Linda. She threatened to destroy my life if I didn't allow you to go back to the Luke family . She believes I have charmed you." Such threats didn't work on her. She just wanted to make Alex aware of what happened .

" I had her family is planning to marry her off to Samson. I guess she came here in frustration."

" Well, I wanted to beat her up and sent her back but I pitied her and let her go. She cannot do anything to me anyway." She looked less glamorous than the last time at the Luke residence.

" She tried drugging me several times but your antidote came in handy. She even tried kidnapping me." He had kept quiet just so that Robinah won't worry too much.

" Why didn't you tell me? To think that I pitied her. Next time I will deal with her." She puffed up angrily.

They had just been discussing some business matters when Robinah received a call from unknown number.

" Hello , who is this?"

" They are coming for you. You are our only hope. Your grandfather said you are the chosen one who will change our fates."

" Who are you?" The information was unsettling.

" I am..." The call went off before she could get a response.

" Who was it?" Alex had been paying attention and noticed her nervousness.

" I don't know but he just gave me a warning."

" What kind of warning?"

" He said they are finally coming for me. Something like am the chosen one. I just think he was trying to pass some information."

" It can only mean the organization has sent people to hunt you down. You have to be careful."

" I think so too. This morning I hacked their system and retrieved some information. It's all related to missing people for the past twenty years. They seem to have been taken by the organization."

" I will inform the police chief, it will be easier to annihilate them." They had communicated with the police chief and he had promised to work with them.

" Okay I will keep digging deep."

It seemed like she had to save not only herself but also others trapped in the organization.
