Kingsley took his car key immediately he ended the call and dashed out of the room in a hurry.
just when he got downstairs, he met his mom drinking juice and going through her phone.
“Kingsley, where are you going?” she demanded softly. strangely both he and his mom has been getting along for the past few days coz he rarely goes out or go clubbing like before.
“Ben said he needs my urgent help and i should come over” he replied truthfully.
“okay, but be careful please.i told you I felt some things off about that guy but since you see nothing wrong with him just be careful and always remember you are the only king of the Williams”his mom said and Kingsley smile before pecking her forehead.
“Any other Kingsley of the family is a bastard!” he yelled and his mom laughed as he went to his car and drives off to Benedict’s house.
Kingsley got to Benedict’s house and came out of the car as he walks towards his door. he knocked the door waiting for benedict to opened the door.
After few minutes of knocking without response, Kingsley turned to go but just then, the door opened and he was dragged into the dark room by a masked guy.
Kingsley turned around the room trying to process everything but before he could process anything, someone hit him hard on the head with a plank and Kingsley fell down unconsciously and his body was carried into another darker room.
PEARL’S LITTLE HOUSE
pearl prayed after waking up and taking her bath. she counted her bread and after ensuring they are complete, she carried her bread and started hawking.
pearl was just few feets away from the house when a young girl of about 16 years of age rushed to her sweating and crying at the same time.
“young lady please, any amount you can help me with I really need it” she pleaded while pearl stare at her in confusion wondering what is wrong because she didn’t look poor at all.
the cloth she is putting on is enough to feed pearl for a month not to talk of her expensive shoe or the beautiful clips on her head.
“what exactly is it? and what did you want to use the money for?” pearl asked and the girl stare at her for a while before bursting into tears.
pearl sensed something is really eating her up, dragged her to safe corner as she dropped her bread and sits her down.
“We were actually coming back from a traditional wedding of one member of our family from the village when we had an accident. I couldn’t narrate this was how it happened because I was sleeping as at the time of the accident. the only thing I could recall is when my mom woke me up and pushed me out of the window and after that the car crashed into a huge tree.
my parents were severely injured and I had to call for the help of people around and together my parents were rushed to the hospital.
The doctors have refused to start work on my parents because they said we needs to deposit money first before they can start any work and have been begging them that my parents are very rich and they are going to pay them more than triple fond of the money, they should just treat them first” the girl narrated crying profusely and pearl felt for her.
hearing the way the doctors are treating her parents is heart breaking enough to even think they are rich people but the Hospital did not wanna help.
pearl carried her bread before holding the girl’s hand.
“come show me the hospital” pearl said holding her hand tightly.
“Are you going to pay?” she asked a big smile finding his way on her face.
“No, but I will make them treat your parents” pearl replied her and the smile disappeared from her face.
“they won’t answer I swear” the girl cried and pearl chuckle.
“try me first, show me the hospital and ward and you won’t regret meeting me” pearl said and the girl grumpily led the way.
The young girl stopped in front of an hospital. MERCY CARE is bodly written there. pearl smiled before entering the hospital with the girl.
The girl showed her her parents ward and pearl’s heart bleed when she saw the critical condition her parents are in yet they are not attending to them.
pearl dropped her bread tray on the floor in the ward.
“wait here…magic will happen now trust me” pearl said flexing her muscle.
she asked for the doctor’s office and she was shown. she got to his office and pleaded with him to follow her because she have something important to show him and he followed her.
pearl got to the front of the ward and opened the ward door before turning to the doctor.
“please enter and treat them they are going to pay you after they are okay. I will stand as the guarantor and you can do anything with me if they refused to pay please” pearl pleaded trying as much as she could to sound polite.
The doctor stare at her for a while and hissed before walking away.
pearl smirked before looking around for any sharp objects and just then a nurse passed by with a tray and she smile before using her leg to hit the tray and everything on it fly up then she quickly grab the scissors and knife in the air.
“Doctor!” she yelled and immediately he turned, she threw the knife at him before he could blink and the knife went swiftly cutting the arm of his clothe then giving him a slight cut.
she opened the scissors before throwing it at his right leg giving him a not too big cut there.
Everyone around stare at her in surprise. Even the young girl that was watching everything from inside gasped in shock.
“who is she?”
“how dare she do that to a doctor?”
“she must be crazy”
people muttered but pearl cared less as she walks to the doctor.
she grabbed him by his shirt.
“pay right now and you will be treated” pearl said staring at his bleeding arm and leg.
“Doctor!!” the nurses yelled rushing towards him with treatments.
“if you dare move an inch closer if I bite you…one year to come you will still be sick” pearl glared and they shifted back in fear.
