Grayson's mansion
Morning
6:33am
Camilla's point of view
I stretched and got down from bed with a yawn walking towards the bathroom,I really need to pee right now.Yeah,I can now walk well without limping, All thanks to Doctor Duncan for always being here treating me.
I went into the bathroom and did my business before returning back to my room.I picked up my phone from the table and laid down on my bed with a loud sigh.
"Okay.... let's see What's popping online"I muttererd and presser the power button,But the phone was off.
"Sh*t, who the hell turned it off??" I muttered and quickly turned it on.
Immedialy I turned on the phone, messages started coming in.
"I knew that this was going to happen"I muttered with a groan.I saw a message from Royce.and i quickly opened the message.
*Hey Cami....If you see this message,Please call me back,I have something urgent to tell you.I've been trying to reach you but your number has been unreachable.*
Royce, had left home since the day before yesterday evening,Saying that he wants to be alone for some days.
I had asked him if I could tag along but he had said no.
I quickly dialed his number,Wondering what he wants to tell me and he picked up at the second ring,
"Hey,Cami,How was your night?? "
"It was great,Goodmorning"
"Yeah Morning,Why was your phone switched off yesterday???"
"I didn't know that it was switched off,Immediately I had dinner,I went straight to bed"
"Oh.. Ok,Urrrm Cami??? "
"Yes Royce,Whats it?? "
"It's about Alicia"
"What about Alicia,Royce??"
"So I Urrm.....got a call from my private investigator, Whom I told to find out everything about Riele,And he told me something I think might be connected to Riele"
"Really??,What did he say??"
"He said she had ran away from home 7 years ago because she was being forced into an arranged marriage and he also said that Her brother brought get some 2 Years later and they are sad list some of jet memories" He said.
"What??,Royce??"I called hurriedly.
"Yes... What's it?? "He asked.
"Remember When we went to New York City for a baseball game. When I asked Alicia during the Truth and dare game we were playing in Ricky's mother house,if she has ever been forced into doing something she hated ,Do you remember her reply???"
"Oh... Yeah, She had said she was almost forced into an arranged marriage" Royce said.
"This is starting to make sense,You also remember that she doesn't sometimes react to her name Alicia??,When I asked her why she sometimes forget her name do you know what her reply was???"I asked.
"What wasn't her reply?? "
"She has said *Maybe i love my other name more*,When I asked her what is her other name??,She had refused to tell me"I said.
"What??, Why didn't you tell me that?"He asked.
"Well, I forgot"I replied and bit my lips.
"Do you know know what made me have a strong feeling that she's my Alicia??"Royce asked.
"What?? "
"The private investigator said that,a maid in the Benedict's mansion tops him that....Whenever Riele is asleep,she'll always be mentioning a name is her sleep"Royce said making me wonder which name it is.
*He said its *my knight*",He said and I gasped immediately,That was the name that Alicia call Royce.
"It's her Royce,Its definitely her"I said and smiled.
"Yeah,She is"He replied and sigh out.
"But if it's her....then who did we bury??? "I asked.
"That was what I was thinking too, something is messed up somewhere"Royce said.
"Royce,The doctor"I said
"Doctor...What are you trying to to say??"He asked.
"The doctor that had told us that Alicia is dead"
"Yes... "He stressed obviously not understanding what I'm trying to say.
"Remember I told you that he was acting weird,and I didn't tell you this but I saw Baby and him talking at the hallway"I said.
"And remember when we asked the doctor if we could see her body, but he had vehemently refused,Saying that her body was way too bruised"I said.
"Yes, he had said that,He was acting weird how?? "Royce asked.
"He seemed scared of something or should I say someone.Whenever we ask him any question about Alicia's health,He wouldn't want to answer us,He would just say that she's getting better"I said and sigh out.
"I Wonder what Baby and his were discussing"I muttered.
"Well,You don't have to worry about that because I'm going back to they hospital, I'll book a flight to Australia,I'm going to find out whatever Baby and him were discussing"He said.
"Come over to my penthouse later, I'm going to call Jordan and Ricky to meet me here too,We need to talk to somebody stuffs"He said.
" Urrm....okay, sure"I said.
"See you later then Cami",He said and hung up.
I checked the time to see that it was already 7:22am,I can't believe that Royce and I have been talking for close to an hour.
I droped my phone on the bed and went into the bathroom to brush my teeth.

Riele's office
Riele's point of view
I was already in my office,working seriously on some files,when my phone began to ring.I checked and saw that it was an unknown number.
I signed and picked up the call placing the phone on my left ear.
"Hello"I heard a femine voice said.
"Yes, Hello,Please who's on the line??"I asked.
"It's me....Bianca"She said.
"Bianca???"I asked trying to remember who Bianca is.
"Royce's mom"she added.
"Oh... Ma'am Bianca,Good morning"I said with a smile.
"Yeah,morning Riele, How are you and the kids doing??"She asked.
"We're all fine,They are in school right now while I'm there then office.What of you and your kids??"I asked.
"They are fine too"she replied.
"How's Camilla's leg now??"I asked.
"It's okay now, she can even walk now"she replied.
"That's great to hear"I said.
"Yeah,Urrrm....are you busy right now??"She asked.
"Busy??, Why?? "I asked wondering why she is asking.
"Well, I want to have lunch with you,that's why I'm asking.Are you very busy at the office??"She asked.
"I'm busy but it's okay,Where do you want us to meet??"I asked.
"There's a popular restaurants down town,I'll send you the address"She said.
"Okay"
"Okay then see you in the next thirty minutes, I'll hung up now"She said and hung up.
I sighed and dropped the phone.I called my secretary and told her that... I'll be going to have lunch with someone and I won't be back early.
I picked up my handbag and my car keys walking out of the room,heading for the garage.
I took the elevator and immediately I came out of the elevator I was welcomed with lots of "goodmorning Boss",I managed to reply their greeting.
I found my car and entered starting the engine,Drake is going to get mad at me if he finds out that I'm the one driving.
I heard a beep from my phone and checked to see that she has texted me the address.
I drove for 28 minutes before I got to the restaurant.I entered and believe me when I say it was really classics and screamed money.But I noticed that they were no customers in the restaurant.
I was ushered in by a waitress who took me to the table which ma'am Bianca was.
I muttered a thanks to the waiter and sat down properly droping my bag on an empty chair.
" Goodafternoon ma'am"I greeted since it was now afternoon.
"Afternoon dear,How was the ride here??"She asked.
"It was smooth,Thanks.Hope I didn't keep you waiting??"I said with a smile.
"No dear"
"So.... Let's dig in before the food gets cold"She said and picked up a spoon.
"Sure ma'am Bianca"I said and picked up my Spoon too.
"I've told you to stop adding ma'am to my name,just call me Bianca only"She said with a smile which I returned.
"Okay....Bianca"I said and she smiled immediately.
"That it"She said and continued eating.
"So... I heard that You were the one that designed the dresses on the last edition of NNNA??"She asked.
"Yes"I replied.
"Those dresses were really beautiful"She said and I couldn't help but blush.
"Thank you"I said.
"I was really surprised when I saw that you are the CEO of NNNA"She said.
"I must recommend your works, They're really beautiful"She said.
"Thanks,yours are beautiful too"I said.
"Thanks...who knows...maybe we might work together In future"She said and I couldn't help but smile widely.
"That would be great"I replied.
"Tommorow is Saturday and I was thinking if you could bring the kids over to my house,So that we can hang out and maybe We can talk about some things"She said.
"Oh,Ok.... I'll bring them over, They'll be so happy if I tell them this"I said main get smile.
