Diana also woke up early and got her kids prepared for school and sooner, their school bus arrived and they left for school while Diana took a day off.
Hannah was busy reminiscing on how she got trapped in and became a pawn in Jake's deadly game.
Nine years ago, Diana introduced Hannah to her fiancee, Jake. Diana and Hannah were good friends, really close that though they were in different career fields, their friendship was mutual. Hannah was in the medical field, working as gynecologist while Diana on the other hand was a business mogul with billions raining into her account per day. Everything changed for Diana when her husband showed her no seemingly form of respect, and cheated on her with Hannah, her best friend, it was then she found out it had been going on before she discovered it.
Diana was barren, but that was not what prompted Jake to cheat on her. Rather, for his selfish motives which was to gain wealth and authority even though by divorce-. Diana's barrenness however was induced that for the years she spent in the marriage with Jake, she would rarely get pregnant, and when she does, she undergoes miscarriage.
Her friend, Hannah, behind her clouds was also exerting revenge on Diana that she played to be a friend but was rather the enemy herself. As Diana trusted her so much, she would administer treatment and drugs for Diana which she obliged to taking but didn't know that those medications and treatment was what was causing her barrenness and miscarriages. Hannah seeking revenge on Diana because she married her five year old crush she usually kept as a secret. Diana didn't even know about that. She met with him on a blind date and coincidentally he was Hannah's crush. Hannah made passes at him but he didn't like her, thus he rejected her and went on with Diana. Diana married him and the relationship barely lasted for a year. The marriage was toxic, but despite Hannah knowing that..... she still wanted revenge.
The relationship for Diana was indeed a very terrible one. She got hurt and closed her heart away from love until she met Jake whom Hannah took from her. At least Hannah thought so until she discovered Jake's ulterior motive and now Jake was using their daughter 'Clara' in blackmailing her. Just when she wanted to abandon her evil life.
Diana still doesn't know the root cause of her barrenness.... but will she?
"She won't find out.....!" Hannah smirked.
"Tired of letting the guilts taunt me.... I have to get the ring and leave this hell place!" She added and darted out of the bedroom in search of Richarlison.
At Einstein Academy.....
Clara had became close friends with Stoic, she was very jovial and chatty all together.
Stoic at first got intimidated by how intelligent she is but as time went on, he got used to it and they had became close friends that Jennifer feared and got jealous that Clara was stealing her big brother. Stoic too was having an unfamiliar surge of emotions like missing someone other than her siblings or mum or Felicity.
Today, Clara got dropped off by a car, Stoic felt he had seen at the military base before, but he couldn't quite remember where and who drove it specifically but he knew it was an outsider that drove it.
Stoic, Legacy and Clara stood in front of the academy's Library having a heated argument. Jennifer was not present, she was called by her fine art teacher for some reasons best known to both of them.
Meanwhile, there are some education inspectors in the academy premises. Originally their duty is to evaluate schools to ensure that specific standards in teaching, learning, financial management and organisation are being achieved and maintained.
And their work activities presently was
Observing lessons...
Talking with teachers and students....
Assessing school organisation....
Checking students' work.....
Producing reports....
Inspectors are mostly teachers with significant experience but these education inspectors didn't seem like real teachers, the principal had his suspicion. They looked like they were there for something else, though dressed like teachers. They were all even looked too young to be education inspectors. The principal wondered why an education inspector as young as the senior among them would have a tattoo on his backhand like a mafia, it was weird for someone he claimed to be.
The professional attire or smart business dress they put on fitted them but yet something was off -
Now, it was time for them to inspect the library where their main missions were. They're some mafias' Jake hired, hired to either take a blood sample each from the triplets or strands of hair each from the kids, he didn't tell them why but obviously it was for the paternity DNA test.
He was able to track down were the kids schooled and there his plans were processing...
Stoic from afar sighted the figures, he had not seen them before thus, he thinks they're probably the school visitors. Legacy turned to look at the figures when he noticed Stoic scrutinizing them that even Clara joined the both of them.
"There they are at the librarys' entrance" one of the inspectors whispered to the one in front after he cut a glimpse of them and confirmed with his cellphone.
"Target confirmed! Processing on target" the inspectors started towards the kids that even Legacy got enveloped with a sense of fear. He didn't like the inspectors face, they radiated something very scary.
In a jiffy, they were standing in front of the boys and Clara.
"Who are you?" Legacy was the one to challenge them, the next minute he groaned in a pain when one of the inspectors forcefully cut a strand of hair from his head.
Before Stoic could process what was going on, a strand of air was cut from his head too, he initially struggled but all to no avail. Clara too was a victim. They thought she must be Jennifer thus, they cut a strand of her hair also.
The principal who had been monitoring the education inspectors move due to the fact he was suspicious something was fishy witnessed the event, that he immediately placed a call over to the police as the education inspectors darted out of the hallway and out of the school speedily.
The principal rushed towards the kids as soon as the call was made .... "Are you guys hurt?" He inquired
"I guess so..." Stoic said, panting heavily. They had just lost sight of the strangers or specifically the education inspectors.
The kids stood there as their hair was messed up as their hair was cut very roughly.
"I'm very scared....."
"Someone tried to hurt us...."
Whereas, the news of what happened had spread like wildfire through the school and many students were getting afraid and withdrawing. The school security this time had started to trail the intruders. The intruders drove past the gate very speedily. The gate was not closed, jus some rod placed vertically at a height across the entrance. That was not sufficient to stop the intruders car, it merely caused a crack on the cars windshield.
Sooner, sirens of Police cars started erupting and it got intensified.
"We're made ... Drive this car faster!" An intruder said, the driver accelerated the car more, speeding very fast to get away from the police.
Meanwhile at the principal's office, First aid treatment is being given to the kids Incase there is harm unnoticed. When Jennifer heard the news, a silver of panic crept into her. "Lord, don't let anything happen to my brothers..."
"Sister!" Stoic called as Jennifer approached then briskly. It jerked her off her thoughts.
"Thank God they're fine....." She exhaled a sigh of relief.
"Yes ..." Stoic responded as he cheerful received a warm embrace from her sister. Legacy was squatted on the corner with Jennifer was curled her body together with fear.
"But why would anyone take our hair away?" Stoic and Legacy stated in unison, they had both been thinking about it over and over again.
Due to the car pursuit by the police, the intruders lost a few strands of the hair they had cut from the kids left with a few, which coincidently belonged to Clara. In other words, they lost the strand of hair they got from the boys and was able to keep the strand they got from Clara. It was better than returning to who sent them empty hand as they narrowly escaped from the police.
