78 HE ALREADY KNOWS 1

Seeing the recognition dawning in the mans eyes Ayanna released a little of her aura.

Yeah! its me, don't look away and you don't need to ask, right from the beginning I knew, or do you want me to tell you how long I knew? Ayanna asked Sankey.

What are you even referring to madam? knew what?

Sankey feigned surprise as if he didn't understand what she was talking about, meanwhile he was calculating what story to spin to clear up the reason he had been in every environment she had been in since that last few months.

Wondering why I haven't gotten you arrested or involved my people in doing something about you since that day I saw you on that roof top opposite the hotel we were lodged? ehm? she asked.

Pick your food let's go, Ayanna commanded looking at her there was no room for argument, please relax I mean you no harm yet, since you have directly not harmed me or mine, Ayanna said, seeing as the man was a bit jittery.

Sankey could feel a strong aura from this beautiful woman, he was wondering why one looking so beautiful and fragile could have such a suppressive aura, what now?

He was sure something untoward would happen to him if he did not cooperate, so he followed her, his lunch in his hand.

They walked up to the table where the others were sitting she ushered him into a sit then she also sat down, seeing questioning gazes of her friends Ayanna ignored them and faced the man.

Am assuming you know a lot about me already, at least that which I want people like you to know but I know notting about you, can you tell me about yourself? don't let me introduce you to yourself, remember we are still friends even at this point.

Sankey laughed hesitantly, and trusted his gut feelings to not cross this lady and choose to narrate everything about himself and why he was following her.

You are a seasoned investigative reporter yet you choose to do this dirty job any particular reason why?

Because my mother in presently admitted in a hospital and needs Hugh amount of money to maintain her bills monthly my office job couldn't meet up and she is the only one I have now she is just too young to allow this sickness to win.

Okay you said someone sent you, who sent you? you are yet to give me a name, Ayanna said.

After listening to the man for a while Ijey and Ken were appalled at what they were hearing so someone hired this guy to follow Ayanna?

Ken became upset and the smile on his face disappeared, picking up his phone he dialed a number and presses the record button but he didn't say anything and dropped the phone on the table casually.

Ken was silently beating himself up, how can this be? he was a great martial artist with strong perceptions forget his playful front he should have known .....ah! how come? no! anyway he was going to fix this,.... his boss was just too much she can really handle her self anytime. Ken scanned their present environment to be sure that the reporter didn't come here with other minions but he couldn't sight anyone out of the ordinary.

You see each time I gave her a report she will get so upset but still ask me to still follow you and report back to her anything no matter what it is, I can't say particularly that this is the information she actually needs, but I know she will always say you are too small to take her man a way, that the three of them were friends long before you came along.

At this stage the man listening in on this discussion and Ayanna already knew who was responsible for the spying.

Huh! Karti!

Okay I get it Ayanna cut in hmmm! I know who she is already. How much are you being paid for this job?

Sankey looked sheepish, turning his head this way and that yet said nothing.

Let me be clear you will still be working for her but I get the upper hand in any information you have to share too I want you to get me everything, ....I mean every and any information you can get about her, send it to me fort with also listen up I will double whatever she is paying you!

Sankey's head did a 360 turn, you said? he asked again to be sure he heard right.

You heard me the first time, my personal assistant here will get your details and payment will be made don't even think of playing me for I promise you, you will fail woefully.

No madam! I will give you all the information you need I promise with your money my mother will get the best care she needs, thank you! Sankey responded.

You know what? we are leaving shortly, now presently directly tell her I am heading to my fiance office to give him lunch, let me know the card she wishes to play understand? Ayanna instructed Sankey.

Yes I understand! Sankey replied.

Ken! give him the number to call once he has any information for us.

Okay boss, I will handle it. Ken acknowledged.

You can leave first. Ayanna dismissed him.

Sankey stood up and bowed in a respectful manner, thank you madam, at least you speak with decorum unlike that vicious woman, who has no respect what so ever for anyone.

Ken followed him out to get the details he needed.

Ayanna how did you know you were being followed? Ijey asked.

Hmmm! its one of the things I inherited from my great, great grand mother Idia as long as am being targeted I will senses it and I can pick the culprit out through something that I can describe as body heat.

You know if I even give it a little energy and fix my concentration from the point of the said body heat, every other person in that area disappears and only the culprit will be revealed to my view and lock on to them and as long as they are within my perimeter, I will definitely know what they are up to.

Its good you have such an ability, can you imagine being spied on like that and for what? a man that doesn't even love you? are you going to let the Prince know what his friend has been up to? Ijey asked.

Tsk! I have this gut feeling that he already knows, am if am correct he will do something to correct this, but in have a way of putting this disgusting woman in her place.

Their orders came and already packed for take away.

Hey girl! let's go see how this drama plays out.
