Imashe smiled as she looked up from the oven seeing the Sarah clean and looking a lot better than she was. Picking up three glasses and pours the finest red wine she had, before finishing off the dinner she had prepared.  

"Je le connais très bien, Sarah. Viens t'asseoir et mange pendant que j'organise une visite de Billy" picking up the plates for Sarah and AB, then  walked over to the table and sets them down. 

She headed down the passage to phone, her mind was filled with just contacting her friend billy.  Hand began to tremble as she dialed in the number and waited for him to answer. 

Billy picked up the phone on the second ring. "Hello?" As soon as he recognized the voice on the other end he smiled.

"Tell me you've got her with you." The confirmation said it all and he banged his hand on his desk as he grinned broadly.

"Good work Imashe, Antonio too! If you two can bring her back to my house, I will be greatly appreciative of that!"

He looked toward the door as his daughter tapped on her wrist to indicate the time. He shook his head.

"Don't worry about the late hour either, bring her by tonight. I want to get her fed and in a comfortable bed for once in her adult life."

With that he hung up the phone.

She smiled as she rubbed her ribs "Yes billy, I have got her and bathed as well as eating her meal right now" hearing his cheerful voice on the other end of the phone. 

"Thank you, Boss, it was nothing but it did get a little risky escaping the fucking guards" she winced as she looked down seeing a small amount of blood on her shirt. Knowing she pulled the stitch from a deep cut.

"We will get her there to you before midnight"  she hung up and headed to the bathroom to clean up before AB saw the blood.

Billy waited, he had sent all the children to bed, the nighttime guards were the only ones still awake when a car pulled up to the gate and then to the front of the house. The three who got out, Imashe, AntonioBrown, and Sarah were unmistakeable. Mostly because he already knew Imashe and Antonio, and Sarah? Well her daughter certainly had some of her mother in her, that was for sure.

"Come in won't you? I can't tell you how grateful I am to see Sarah outside of the ugliness of the place. Imashe, you said there were problems with the guards, I need you to tell me all about it."

He sat on the recliner in the living room and gestured for the others to take a seat.

"If you're thirsty, the bar is stocked, help yourself."

Without further invite, Sarah stepped up to the cabinet and threw it open. She pulled out a sparkling Prosecco and poured herself some before sitting back down and looking to her rescuers.

"Yeah I knew there was something wrong when most of her file was missing,. I asked for the  rest and the guy that was attending Sarah got fidget, I got told that he was drugging her to keep calm. Billy the.place was a nightmare and I had to get her out of there"

She sat down upon the couch and sighed softly, knowi g that she wasn't fully recovered from her attack only weeks before. Looking up at her boss "I that nk we have more trouble heading our way boss.  Billy I need you to hold onto something for me as I think  my step father victor is up to god know what and these files of mine will be safe in your safe . can you watch them for me.

Billy nodded. "Of course I can, anything for you." He took the files from Imashe and placed them on the side table, leaving his hand on them for the moment so she knew he wasn't going to just leave them out of sight.

"If your step father worries you, we should talk about that when my wife gets home. For now, I think we should consider getting you to a safe place and to a bed huh? Do you want to stay here, or head home? I'll keep Sarah here, she can stay in her daughter's room tonight and we will go from there."

He smiled to Sarah who simply shrugged.

Rubbing her eyes as she couldn't  face travelling  this late at night. "If its OK with you I would  stay  and leave in the morning . I can't stay in one place too long as Victor has his thugs or Pi's looking for me always"

Imashe  r7bbed her temples as she felt the strain upon her eye's "billy, I have a sneaky suspicion that he had something to do with Sarah ending up in that  rat infested dump. I really need to take this bastard down but I know I need to get up my strength first"

Billy nodded.

"Of course you can stay Imashe, there is a guest room. I'll make sure you're all set up there, how's that?"

He stood and made his way toward the kitchen.

"For now though, are you two hungry?"

"Yes please, I could eat a little something right now. Do you have any pain relief as well! My ribs are killing  me still" she got up and headed into the kitchen behind Billy.

Leaning against the counter as she supported her one side "can you check around for information for me please? I think I have been followed  but I can't be too sure"

She sighed as a shiver ran down her spine slightly.
