Every crime has to have a motive behind it and the motive she came up with was not strong enough. After thinking it through, she decided not to ask him since it would affect their friendship if she does. She remembered how she felt when the red-haired accused her and she did not want to do the same thing to a friend. She shook her head and concluding that there was no reason why he would do that for her.

Jace saw her conflicted look and decided to help her with it. "DO you have something to say to me?" he asked seriously wishing she was willing to be his girlfriend. He told them in school that they were dating but Anna had not said anything against it and it gave him hope that she really wanted to be his girlfriend.

"Did you kidnap Claire?" she blurted out closing her as she regretted asking him that question immediately. "Don't border to answer. There is no reason why you would. I am sorry," she apologized and left his car immediately when she opened her eyes to see the foreign expression she had never seen on Jace's face since they met each other. He looked both disappointed and surprised.

"Hhmm," Jace had to sigh at his destroyed confession. He actually thought she wanted to confess to him but she suspected him of kidnapping a girl he knew nothing about. He wondered why fate was so cruel. He watched her walk into her house knowing very well that she was truly sorry. This was the first time Anna showed him her sincere emotion.

He smiled despite the negative emotions he felt earlier. He now had a card against her. She must be feeling really guilty at this moment and he was willing to use her guilt to make do what he wants. He rubbed his hand on his chest smiling dreamingly. "Anna, I will make you my girlfriend soon.

The following day was spent doing girly stuff. The girls were supposed to feel good and have fun but the mood Anna and Rose were in also spoilt Debby's mood. She frowned at the girls who were messing up her Sunday. "What the hell is going on with you two?" she asked blowing on her fingers she just painted.

"Nothing," Anna answered sharply staring at the nail polish she smeared on the back of her hand due to her absent mindedness.

Rose glanced at Debby and her sister and returned her attention to the nude color nail polish she had being trying very hard to apply on her fingers properly. "I can't do this. I told you to let us to do it at the spa," Rose complained with a fake natural look as though her mind had truly being on trying to paint her nails.

"I thought you guys did not want to go out."

"I want to go out," Anna answered immediately running into her closet to get dressed to go out.

Rose did not want to go out at all she was regretting talking right now. Since her encounter with her late mother's friend, she felt scared of going out. She was scared to meet someone else that would recognize her.

She tried all the means she could come up to avoid going out but Anna and Debby dragged her to the spa. She was scared of getting shot by a hit man or kidnapped.

Anna avoided Jace on Monday morning as she was feeling really guilty but Jace cornered her in the cafeteria. "Who is Claire," he asked seriously.

"The girl I hit. She went missing," she told him truthfully feeling no need to hide it since he had her cornered.

Jace nodded his head. If he was his brother, the girl might have gone missing because of him but he was Jace and he had never hit anyone in his entire life even when he was still an orphan. "I did not kidnap her but I can help you find her."

Anna looked at him surprised that he was willing to help. "Why will you help me?"

"I am sure you will not be the only person suspecting me right now. It is best we find her."

"Thank you," Anna appreciated.

"Who told you she was missing?"

"A red-haired in my class."

"I will start by asking him. You should not concern yourself with it again it might not be as simple as it seems."

"I have a feeling it is connected to my case. It seemed someone who knows me did it. It is just a hunch."

"I will put that into consideration when investigating it." Jace was jubilating in his heart as he entered the restroom. Seeing it empty, he began a victory dance. Anna actually shared her thoughts and feelings with him. That was a very great progress and also an opportunity to get closer to her.

Rose was slowly become paranoid that she could get killed at any point. She was a powerless and defenseless. If Anna could get kidnapped easily, it won't be too different for her to get killed. She practiced all she was taught for self-defense till her muscles became sore. She practiced so hard to be ready for any type of close combat attack but what if she gets shot to death?

"Hey Rose, are you okay?" Jace asked joining Rose at her seat when he entered the class and noticed the solemn look she wore.

She smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I am," she replied.

"You don't look too good," he told her his observation. He watched her closely for any detail that could possibly give him a hint. He remembered since Saturday she had not being herself. It must be connected to the encounter she made with the woman. He was worried about her and searched for the woman's identity.

The woman was the queen's sister and the late queen's best friend. He was tempted to tell his brother about it and when he went to tell his brother that he suspects Rose had gotten her memory back, he discovered his brother was already aware of it.

"What took you so long?" his brother had asked him with his usual expressionless face and overbearing aura.

"I . . . I wanted to confirm," he replied and his brother nodded waving him off. He was not sure his brother believed him but he was glad his brother did not punish him for delaying. Later he found out his father had stationed a few more guards around her.

"I had a little fever yesterday but I am fine now," she replied still smiling. Yesterday was hell when she got back from the spa. She had fever throughout the night and could barely sleep.

"That's a relief," he told her with sincere concern. She was his sister-in-law and from what he saw, his father valued her life a lot. He sat down on the chair in front of her and wriggled his brow.

Rose brow twitched when she saw the teasing look on his face. "What is wrong? Is there something on my face?" she asked patting her cheeks.

"Have you ever seen my brother?" he asked watching her closely.

"No. I did once on the internet. He is popular," was her direct answer.

"My brother is single," he told with his smile hinting something she could not pin point.

She was puzzled and watched him closely too to understand the meaning behind what he just said because everyone knew the first son of the Hart family was still single.

"And you are single too," he said finally making her understand and wriggled his brow again with a wink.

Was he trying to set her up with his brother? She laughed and dropped her gaze from his handsome face. In the whole school, Jace was the one with the best looks and style. He was an ideal boyfriend but his brother was way better and was hot with a dependable appearance like the perfect knight in shining amour to save a damsel in distress.

She had thought of what it would be to have the Hart family as her backer through her journey but she could not see any reason why she could trust them with her secret and trust them not to take away her inheritance because they helped her. "I know I am single," she replied still playing the ignorant card. She got up to avoid going on with the conversation.

"I want you to be with my brother," he told her very bluntly that she could not stop the heat that crawled up her face causing her to blush at the thought of being with the most powerful young man in the world. Some said it was because of his family but he still welded that power after proofing to be capable of holding the position he held in his father's cooperation.

"I can't," she also gave him a blunt answer to fit his blunt suggestion and sat down since he had already said what he wanted.
