Chapter 54: Chapter 54

Alexia pulled from Bernard, she noticed that she had created a dent in his uniform with her tears.

Oh, I am sorry, I just soil your wears.

It's nothing, are you done crying soldier? Alexia smiled and hit him slightly.

Stop teasing me before I tell everyone as well that you are crying.

I surrender. Bernard said raising her hand and Alexia Titter.

You are something else. She goes mute as Bernard made her sit as she faces the sky the sun is no longer producing heat, it's just something that the skin needs.

How did it go? Bernard asked, Alexia had told him earlier that she is visiting the prison and everything about Xander, so he is aware that, the outcome is what is troubling Alexia.

He said he killed her.

What? Bernard exclaimed then close his lips.

Yes, but he has no idea, about the dead body, he only said that he dump the body Somewhere and that the body disappeared before he returns to get her back, there is this possibility that she might still be alive, probable rescue by someone and that someone is taking care of her.

It might be true or false, the body should be what we should focus on looking for, finding her, that will give solution to all our problems.

Bernard tries not to discourage her nor give her hope that Leah might still be alive, if he filled her heart with the possibility that someone might have rescued Leah and that she is fine and well, she will becomes heartbroken if, in the end, the results is the opposite, he doesn't want that to happen to him.

Perfect, I got the perfect plan to look for Leah faster. Alexia screamed as she pick herself up from the floor.

What are you going to do? Bernard asked.

The field Marshall, he could help me, father said, he is effective and faster when it comes to searching for things, perfect he could help me.

She run, she didn't wait for Bernard's words, thinking of the probability that her worry will come to an end, she need to see Field Marshall, it might be difficult for them to let her in, she will try and get in touch with him.

Fortunately, the soldiers at the door didn't stop her, she just make her way into the office, field Marshall was surprised to see her, and she greeted him.

Hey dear, is there any problem? Field Marshall asked.

I am sorry for disturbing you sir but the thing is, I need your help, my dad said, your search team is the best, and that you were able to locate us when we got missing faster because of your team, so please, I need help searching for someone, my cousin, she goes by the name Leah, I...

Go to Beck. Field Marshall's voice interrupt her, she look at him all shocked and ogled at him like she didn't get it right. Yes, Beck, if you want a faster response, he is the perfect one for this, apart from being a soldier he is the best hacker, just give him the details of everything, and he will be of great help to me.

Alexia bit the lower part of her lips, and the possibility that Beck doesn't want to have anything to do with her will make him refuse her request, Field Marshall could tell from her countenance that is in hesitated to go to Beck.

Although he would had help her Beck will make things faster, apart from the fact that Beck could make it faster, he wants both of them to always be alone so he could get the boldness to confess his feelings to her.

Alright, sir, I appreciate it. She salute and then walked out, field Marshall smiled at how fast his brain seemed to be working, and how much he wish to see his grandson, ice's heart melted because of this girl.

All this time, he had pressured his grandson to get married and one time he had arranged a blind date for him but the young man had stood the date and the young lady was very bitter and wouldn't go on any date with Beck. Field Marshall just give up on his grandson because he doesn't want to offend another of his friend if he was to stage another blind date for him.

Beck had never referred to any girl as beautiful, when Jesse blurt the word that, the first word that came out from Beck, when he came consciousness was beauty, he felt his grandson might want this one.

Yet, the boy is doing everything possible to keep his feelings in check, he can't seem to pinpoint the reason why he is not saying a word about his feelings to her.

****

Jesse had waited for night to fall before he bought the young lady into his unit, his unit is on the same block as Beck, and he had no idea how he is going to keep the girl in his unit without anyone finding out, especially May, even if Beck had found out, a little explanation from him to him, will put an end to this curiosity and investigation will be carried out but May, she will nag him till he admits that he likes her or she is his girlfriend, even when they are not dating.

Come on in. Jesse said, at first he didn't want to bring her here but he had no choice but to.

Why are you bringing me in here, this late?

It's simple, I don't want people to start saying I brought a new girl here.

Hm! So you always bring girls here? Jesse look at her, she was sounding all innocent and calm at the hospital, he never thought, she could even ask him a question.

I am a man and I got blood running in my system. Jesse said nonchalantly and pulled the door to the other room. You can stay here for a while, till I try to fix your memory, so for now, you are my new housemate, you should shower while I fixed something for us.

The young lady didn't say anything, she walked slowly into the washroom, after taking her bath, she wear her pajamas but she doesn't feel comfortable in them, she had no idea if she doesn't like wearing that before now but she knows she is not comfortable with it.

Joining Jesse in the living room, the young man had fixed a very nice meal, it's not Jesse's thing to cook for a woman, he only did it because she is his guest and to him, she is sick.

After dinner, none of them say a word to each other, and they both retire to their room, it's a good thing, that is unit has two rooms, so she could spend the night.

The young lady, look at the stuff on the bed, she didn't see that a while ago, it only means, that Jesse had ordered then for her.

Undies, nice wear, and some more pajamas.

Why is he buying many of these pajamas, is he afraid that I will rape him? The silly girl thought, smiling at her own silly words, she thought of telling thanks for the stuff.

Do you need anything? Jesse's voice bit her in halt, she hasn't approached him yet, he knows she is behind him.

Sorry, I didn't mean to creep on you. Jesse pinned his lips and turned to her.

I am not mad at you, sorry if my voice was a bit louder.

It's okay, I only want to say thanks.

You're welcome, I have no idea if it will suit you perfectly. Jesse comments. She just heaved a sign and then turned to leave, going back to her, her first step, had made her come in contact with her fear

Ah! She screamed.
