Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Alas, Mark couldn’t…. He turned and left unnoticed.

He walked straight back to his office and instructed one of the officers to inform Diana to make it to his office in the next three minutes…. He sounded very serious when he instructed the officer.

As expected, the officer did as he was told.

Diana was standing opposite Otani when the officer arrived. She was having it difficult to tell Otani the truth, that the one night led to three kids? How would she present it to him? How would he react when he finds out? Will he accept them? it aroused curiosity and speculations within her.

And now, an officer just informed her the president general wants to see her in his office immediately.

Diana speculated on why?… Still, she can’t disobey. He is the president general…

So, she left in a hurry, leaving Otani curious and – the way Diana left and walked in a graceful way, which usually made people turn their heads to watch her go by got Otani as well.

On her way, Stoic barged into her unexpectedly. They were on holidays so they had the privilege of walking around the military base freely but Diana had instructed them not to leave the house due to the danger Jake was imposing.

“H… he… hey, mummy!” Stoic said in shock. He was not expecting to bump into his mum. He had gone out in search of an hibiscus flower for her sister. Jennifer dared her to.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“Oops! What are you doing outside?!” Diana said angrily as she put a hand out to steady him. She always hated being disobeyed.

“Momma, I’m sorry!” Stoic immediately started to apologize, his tone indicating a sincere apology.

Diana went silent momentarily. She had her memories now and something about being called “momma” tickled her. Her parents left Sterling City since her 18th birthday. They sort of disowned her for a reason, but however she built Investment companies and big companies like Diana oils company that Jake took away from her through their divorce.

“Momma please… I won’t disobey your orders again…” Stoic stretched her apologies further. Up close Stoic could see how tired his mother looked. There were dark half-moons under her eyes, and her lids were pearly with sleeplessness. “I hope she is been sleeping? Didn’t she slept last night? Something is probably bothering her?” Stoic discerned. And of a truth, she didn’t sleep the last night. She had been thinking of a way through to Otani, about her kids…

“Okay fine. Go back home and don’t leave without my permission again!..” Diana said which means, she already forgave her.

“Okay mum, I promise!” Stoic responded and then he was gone, with a funny apologetic duck of the head.

Afterwards, Diana continued hastily to the president generals office as the bitter memories of why her parents disowned her came flowing and settling down in her memory.

“But it was not my fault he died!” Diana tried to push the thoughts off but she couldn’t as she entered the elevator leading to the 85th floor, where Mark’s office was.

In a blink of an eye, she was standing before the office door. The pennon attached on it was the President General Office! The way the door alone was made and designed exuded that only someone of his rank can assume such office.

After she heaved a sigh to clear her head of the many thoughts, she twisted the door knob and let herself in.

Mark was standing before the window, staring at the most powerful and luxurious military base that ever existed.

His jacket was off. Wearing just a regular white top that matched his black trousers.

“Sir!” She saluted at once.

After freeing herself she added, “You sent for me!”

Mark still kept quiet and didn’t even bother to turn to see who it was that saluted him. Though, he already knew who it was, he smelled her presence the moment she stepped into the office and somehow it refreshed him from the awful thoughts he was having against Otani.

“It better not be true that he is the father of those kids!” And infact, he already informed Richarlison to dig out more about Otani and it reminded him of Danny. Danny was always the one he asked for such important information digging but he was still reportedly missing. Richarlison still hasn’t been able to pin point his whereabout, dead or alive? He didn’t know. So, Mark urged him to take finding Danny serious!

After waiting for over a minute, Mark finally turned…

“I have an assignment for you!” He broke the silence.

“An assignment? Since her arrival at Sterling military base, she had never be assigned to any task, even if, definitely not by the president general!…. But, why all of a sudden?”

“Okay!” Diana responded, paying attention the more..

“Uhmm.. since you’re less busy.. I’d like you to inspect the junior officers for the rest of the day and as well come join in my villa, you’re becoming my vice personal assistant…” Mark detailed, as he stared at Diana who was dumbstruck.

It’d be a dream come through for many officers, being the president general vice personal assistant, it’d give them more opportunities to get closer to him. But it was a hell no for Diana. She didn’t wanted to get closer to Mark, infact that was the reason she has decided to make friends with Otani for a substitution, perhaps marry him, since he is her kids father. Getting close to someone like Mark would only bring her and her kids trouble in a way.

If it were about the inspection, she would immediately agree. She loved inspecting the junior officers especially, just that it’d be extremely stressful and she won’t get time to talk with Otani afterwards – that was what Mark wanted. Preoccupy her with so much workloads that she wouldn’t have time for Otani.

“I take your silence for Yes!, So, get to work….!” Mark said plainly. He knew Diana was completely hesitant but he had to force it on her.

Just then, the door to the office opened. Richarlison walked in majestically with a poster in his hand. A picture of Danny was on it, the poster proclaimed “Wanted”.

“Sir!” Richarlison saluted.

“Yes!”

“I need permission to disburse of the posters!” Richarlison reported with a requesting tone.

“Okay go on!” Mark gave out his go ahead.

It was at that moment Diana who was thinking of declining being the president general vice personal assistant turned to behold the sight of the poster.

“Wanted?”

“Hey!” She called out to Richarlison who was about turning at once and he stopped.

“What?”

“I have seen him before… The man on the poster! And his name is not Danny! His name is Wakins, Felicity’s new personal assistant!” Diana detailed at once. She knew if she didn’t, they may not believe her.

“Stop joking around woman! He was my classmate and a very good friend, not until he went missing! His name is Danny!” Mark cut her off immediately thinking she must have mistook someone else for Danny. Afterall people can have look alikes.

“No sir, I mean it! I saw him at Delta city. He is Felicity’s personal assistant. The friend I told you must know about the whereabouts of the silver ring!” Diana retorted..

“I mean it. I’m sure of it!” She added.

Mark glanced at Richarlison who in turn glanced at her.

“Was she telling the truth?” They both wondered.

“Bring him before me!” Mark ordered. With a salute, Richarlison left after he collected the necessary information from Diana.

“See you at my villa immediately you’re done with the inspection!” Mark said after Diana was set to leave. She felt she could stall the two options left for her – accept or decline- by just leaving the office immediately.

After she left, Mark checked his drawer, in search of a file. A file that contained the a paper; a paper that had the mark of an overlapping circle inscribed on it. He was beginning to suspect something fishy.

Mark then scrutinized the mark further. It was indeed familiar, just like the mark on Hannah’s thigh… Same mark he thought he had seen on Diana’s thigh, the day he saw her Naked!

Just then an officer walked into the office.

He had also called for him.

“Sir!” He saluted… He was the officer Mark assigned to fish out those people that helped Hannah escape.

“The soldiers sent over to apprehend the officers and Jack and Jill were found dead with a paper conveying a message!” The officer quickly reported.

“What?” Mark exclaimed in extreme surprise.

“Here is the paper!!” The officer brought out the paper and gave it to Mark.

Mark quickly collected it and unfolded it, the words were written with a blood ink. Obviously, was signed by the god of War of mega Island. He was the only one who had the signature attached.

The message on if read “WAR!”..

“It seem they’re asking for war… Get the officers ready for an impromptu war!” Mark roared to life immediately.

Meanwhile , Hannah had just successfully got to Jake’s hideout and was given just five minutes to meet with her daughter….

They were going to take her daughter, Clara away from her since she failed her mission.
