Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue novel Chapter 25

Jason drove to the part of the town where Nancy had alighted from his car.

He searched for her asking questions about her and describing her but no one seem to know her or have seen her.

He was getting frustrated. He realised that Nancy had lied to him about the place she lived and wondered why. Did she think that he would come and harass her if she told him exactly where she lived?

He could not believe how impossible the damn girl was being.

How was he doing to locate her now? She refused giving him her contact number and didn't also give him her real resident address. How was he going to locate her?

'Well, that is her business. I have other pressing matters and cannot afford to waste time trying to help someone who is not ready to be helped'.

He was going to get into his car and drive off when he decided to look around again, he went into the slumy part of the neighbourhood. He knew that if those who knew him were to see him, they would wonder if he was still in his senses but he had never cared about that and was not about to start.

He asked a few of the people he saw there. The place was indeed repulsive and he wondered how people could lice in such a place. The health of such inhabitants was definitely not assured.

He felt that for someone who didn't have a job and any source of sustenance, this might be the place she would live. A place where she would pay less. But it was abhorrent given her condition. Yet she was so stubborn that she didn't want any help from him that might be tagged charity.

'Foolish girl'.

one person he asked remembered seeing such a girl.

'I do not know much about her. She always keeps to herself. I believe I saw her going out this morning. But I haven't seen her since then'.

'Thanks alot'. Jason said offering the lady some money which she grabbed immediately.

Jason decided to wait for a little while longer for Nancy to assure himself that he had done all he could.

He could not believe the girl. How could she live in such a place as this? And she had refused his help too.

After about an hour waiting, he got tired. He would have to come back tomorrow to check back on her if he had the time.

He had so many other things to take care of. He just wanted to handle this himself else he would have sent some employee of his to do this for him.

He was not comfortable leaving his number with the woman who had agreed that she had seen Nancy that morning but he left her with the message that Nancy should wait for him the following day because he had news for her.

After promising to relay the message, Jason walked to where his car was parked and got in.

He had just got into his car when Nancy came back through the opposite route.

The woman was just about to go in, when she heard some noise and looking back, found that it was the girl, the gentleman had come looking for.

'Did you see him, girl?' she asked.

Nancy at first did not know that the woman had been referring to her. She was just too exhausted from the day's exertion and very hungry and she just wanted to get into her hole of a room and prepare something for herself to eat before she started feeling nauseous and faint.

'Girl, did you not hear my question?' the woman asked again.
