Baby you look happier, you do. I knew one day you'd fall for someone new.

In Sienna's car, she was driving her parents home and telling them about Somto and Chisom's kidnapping. She didn't tell them about her going to see Jaws though.

"This sounds terrible but," Amaka said hesitantly, "I think you should stay away from this case. The connection between you and Jaws is too much."

"I can't back out now mom, I am determined to see this to the end" Sienna said firmly. Amaka and Edafe looked at each other in worry.

In the usual bar, Sienna sat with Ethan, Tamara and Eric. "Somto isn't going to help us anymore. He is too scared to endanger his daughter's life" Tamara said.

"I think it's best we don't involve him in our plans for now. It's best" Ethan said.

"We have sent people to follow Mr. Isime but they keep failing. This is getting difficult, we only have 3-4 days left" Eric said concerned.

"Make that two days" Sienna interrupted, "I heard from a friend that Mr. Isime's lawyer will have the papers by next tomorrow."

"What?! It's too soon" Ethan said alarmed.

"I know" Sienna crossed her arms. "what can we do?". The team looked troubled over what course of action to take. They left the bar to double their efforts.

Sienna and Ethan arrived home together and Sienna went to her apartment. She furrowed her brows upon noticing something.

"What is it?" Ethan asked, as he was about to leave.

"Something is wrong here..." Sienna said and hesitantly opened the door. She walked in and gasped in shock. Ethan followed her worried.

"What happened-oh my God" Ethan said shocked.

Sienna's apartment was destroyed; broken glasses were on the floor, the furniture was ripped and turned upside down, the walls were painted red with a message 'I am coming for you.'

Sienna walked around carefully and picked up an old picture of her and Thad. Her eyes were poked out. She saw another photo of her and Ethan and Ethan's face was crossed out and red paint on it. She hid that picture.

"Who do you think did this?" Ethan asked worried as he looked around. "how did the person even get in?"

"It must have been Jaws. He must know where I leave if he followed me" Sienna said annoyed and Ethan looked horrified.

"That means he could break in anytime. We can let that happen" Ethan said alarmed. "you can't stay here, stay with me at my apartment."

"But don't you live with Michael?" Sienna asked.

"Yes but Michael has been out of town for a while" Ethan answered quickly. "you can stay with me for a while and maybe both of us can move out of this building. What if he comes again, when we are both home?"

Sienna looked thoughtful, "I understand. Let me pack my things."

"I'll help you" Ethan said and they went inside the rooms.

The next day at the firm, Sienna did not come to work and Mr. Olayinka called Ethan in to explain. "Sienna's house was a mess when we got there. Someone broke in and we suspect it was Jaws" Ethan said.

"Broke in?! That's bad, Sienna can't stay there anymore. Where is she now?" Mr. Olayinka asked concerned.

"She is staying in my apartment for now. She decided not to go to work so she can clean up the place" Ethan replied and Mr. Olayinka nodded pleased.
