Chapter I think we have a problem
Chapter
87
Hannah and Brandon were about to leave the house when the door burst open revealing Jessica, holding a lot of shopping bags.
She had gone shopping with her friends and they made her buy a lot of things. In as much as she was still angry at the octuplets. She still bought them something. It was some set of clothes she saw, they looked so beautiful and classy that she couldn't take her eyes off them. She had to buy them.
"Where are you guys going in a haste?" Jessica asked but no one answered her. She wondered what was wrong because Hannah was looking so tense.
Just then she saw the Butler, Alexander. The butler was about to go back inside when he saw Jessica but then Jessica called his name making him stop. She dropped her shopping bags on the floor and walked towards him. "Alex," she called and Alex turned to her.
"I know we had our past but I believe it would be best if we put everything behind us and just be friends. Please " Jessica said and Alex hummed.
"We do not need to avoid each other, besides I have a boyfriend already," Jessica said
"Oh, congratulations, " Alex said in response.
Just then Jessica heard her phone ring. It was a call from her boyfriend, Jefferson.
She smiled and then answered the phone call.
"Babe, I'm almost dressed, I promise not to be late," Jessica said happily, thinking Jefferson had wanted to ask her if she was ready.
"No, Jessica. I wanted to tell you I won't be available today. I have some work to do. It's an emergency " Jefferson said and Jessica sighed sadly. "Okay then," she said and ended the call.
"What's wrong?" Alex asked
"My boyfriend, we were supposed to go out today but he canceled saying it's an emergency," Jessica said and Alex muttered an "oh" with a cold look on his face.
Jessica quickly shook off the sadness. She would just hang out with him another day since he's busy, she thought.
"Mind telling me what's happening in this house and where my brother and his wife are rushing to? Where's the octuplets and where are the maids" Jessica asked, looking around.
"The octuplets are missing and I was asked to dismiss all the house help which I did. I was only following orders!" Alex said
"The octuplets are missing? What? What about grandma, have you seen her?" Jessica asked
"No," Alex responded
"Any idea where she went?" she asked
She was the one who tried killing Hannah before, what if she's the one behind this too, Jessica thought as she brought out her phone to call her but sadly it was entering voicemail. "Hello Grandma, immediately you get this voicemail, I want you to call me back," Jessica said and then turned to Alex.
"I have work to do, I need to go," Alex said and Jessica sighed softly.
Meanwhile, a black car with tinted glass came to a stop close to the courthouse. Hannah and Brandon were both in the car.
Just then, they saw Jeff standing in front of the court house pacing to and fro while checking his time.
Just then he picked up his phone and dialed Hannah's number.
"He's calling me?" Hannah said to Brandon as her phone rang.
"Answer the phone call and tell him you are close," Brandon said and Hannah answered the phone call. "I'm on my way, I'll be there in a few minutes, " Hannah said and with that, she ended the call.
They could see Jeff sigh in relief when Hannah said she was on her way.
"When are we going to meet him?" Hannah asked
"When Liam calls that the children are safe and with him," Brandon said as they both remained in the car.
Brandon turned to Hannah and noticed she was looking so nervous while staring through the glass of the car.
He sighed softly and then placed his hands on hers, Hannah then turned to him at once. She felt a cold feeling immediately after Brandon's hands came in contact with hers. They both stared at each other with a peculiar look on their faces.
"You don't have to be scared, I'm here for you and everything is going to be fine," he said and Hannah who was almost becoming lost while staring at Brandon couldn't say a word. Just then Brandon's phone vibrated, it was a text message from Liam. They both looked away from each other.
"It's Liam, he's got the kids and is taking them home," Brandon said and Hannah gave out a breath of relief, she felt like a huge burden had been lifted off her.
She then climbed out of the car and walked towards Jeff.
"Oh you are here already," Jeff said with a smile on his face but Hannah did the unexpected.
He slapped him so hard on his face. Jeff's face turned red immediately.
"That is for hurting me in the past and betraying me," she said and then slapped him again on his face twice

"That is for asking your mom to throw me out on the street so I could get raped" She paused as tears slipped down her cheeks. She then slapped him again four times on his face. "That is for kidnapping my kids and making them suffer" she yelled and Jeff who was now furious held her hands.
"How dare you hit me. I would only spare you because you are getting married to me, now come with me to the courthouse" Jeff said but then a voice spoke making Jeff pause.
"Let her go" Brandon spoke, his voice filled with so much authority. Fear ran through Jeff's spine. He remembered the day Brandon had given him a broken arm, this made him more scared.
"I thought I told you to come alone, and you brought him. I could make some calls and your kids would be dead, remember I have them in my custody. You would better come with me Hannah" Jeff said as Hannah pulled her hands away from his grip.
"You are a fool to think that we would come here knowing fully well, you had the kids. You think I trust you and what you say.
Those times I was talking to you on the phone, my beloved husband here was busy tracking down your location.
He sent some men over and now they've gotten the kids and they are on their way home" Hannah said and Jeff stared at them in disbelief.
"You are lying. You think I would fall for ur lies or believe anything you say" Jeff said and suddenly Brandon brought out his phone and showed him a video of the kids.
"You.... bastard.." Jeff said with gritted teeth and the next thing Brandon gave him a punch in his mouth making him stagger backward.
"You don't mess with my family," Brandon said and suddenly the police arrived at the scene and took him away.
"I'm going to make you pay for this Hannah, I'll make you all pay" Jeff yelled as the police handcuffed him and took him away.
"Your hands seem to be better now," Brandon said and Hannah laughed.
Just then Brandon heard his phone ring, it was a call from Liam. He quickly answered the phone call.
"I think we have a problem"
