Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her

Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along

Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and

Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili

Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus

Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli

MARKI was still reeling from the shock of what Brent told me. A part of me was relieved because it meant that I would never have to deal with Donald Shell ever again.But another part of me was...curious.“Who could have killed him?” I asked Brent just before we got to the apartment where Gina was hiding.We hadn’t said much after we left the penthouse, and that was because my head was going round in thoughts. Brent knew better than to start a conversation.I would have berated him for making the announcement in front of Alexa, knowing that the news would leave her troubled, but then again, all three of us had no idea that she had come out of the nursery.Noelle and I thought that she was sleeping.“Investigations are still ongoing, but for now, they haven’t found anything,” Brent responded.But it still didn’t make any sense to me.“How can that be possible?” I asked. “Donald has securities and helps. Didn’t they see anything or anyone?” I questioned further.Brent would know most o

ALEXA Mark didn’t know this, but I knew that he had been standing right there in the nursery for heaven knows how long, staring at me and our daughter. After he left with Noelle, I had tried to get some sleep, but I just wasn’t feeling it, and then I decided to join Noelle and Mark, only for me to hear Brent say what I never expected to hear. Mark left with Brent some minutes ago and Noelle had shoved me back to bed, but then, Ophelia started crying, so Noelle had to help me put her back to sleep. In a few minutes, she returned. “She has finally slept off,” Noelle said with a warm smile. “She is such a troublesome princess. I don’t know if she got that from you or Mark...or the both of you combined,” she added with a chuckle. Noelle was acting as though we hadn’t heard about Donald Shell’s demise. My heart was still beating very fast, and even though I knew that Mark wouldn’t hide anything from me, I still wished that he and Brent had had every conversation here, and not just l

MARKWatching Alexa and our daughter, Ophelia, sleep so peacefully and beautifully made my heart swell with love and pride.“They are yours, Mark, yours,” a voice whispered into my head.I named her Ophelia because it was Alexa’s mother’s name and I wanted us to cherish her memory. I didn’t have much memories of my mother because she died when I was a baby, but Alexa still had hers even until when she became a teenager.And I knew that she would love it. I wasn’t wrong.“I will spend the rest of my life protecting you two,” I vowed to myself and I meant every word of it.“You can’t stop staring at them, can you?” Noelle asked in a very low voice as she tiptoed and stood beside me.She was trying to be as noiseless as possible.“I am afraid not, Noelle. These are the women in my life and I never thought I would be this blessed,” I responded with a low voice as well.My heart kept swelling with pride and joy.“I think we should let them sleep,” Noelle suggested.“Yes, that’s right,” I a

IVY“Ivy, Ivy, Ivy!”That sounded like Drew yelling out my name. I opened my eyes slowly.“Are you okay?” He asked me.Drew was towering over me and trying to get me off the floor.“Wait, I am not dead?” I asked when I realized that I wasn’t feeling any form of pain.Then my eyes quickly checked around me and there were no signs of blood.“No, you are not,” Drew said.Then he chuckled lightly.“I was worried for a minute that you had died of shock,” he added lightly.I did pass out because I thought that Donald Shell was going to kill me, only that I didn’t know how long I had been on the floor,Speaking of Donald Shell and that gun he had pointed at me...“What are you doing here, Drew?” I asked, struggling to rise to my feet.Drew helped me up, and that was when I saw everything right in front of me before Drew could even answer the question I asked.Donald Shell was on the floor, in his own pool of blood, his brains spluttered on the expensive tiles, and his gun held tightly to his

ALEXAI opened my eyes and the first person I saw was Mark, staring at me with the warmest smile I had ever seen.There was something else in his eyes that made my toes curl in a loving manner.“Hey, honey,” Mark said in a gentle whisper.Then he used his palm to caress my forehead. I felt the warmth of it instantly.“Mark,” I responded in the same whisper.Then Mark’s eyes were filled with tears, almost so suddenly that I wondered if they had been there when I opened my eyes but didn’t notice them.“Are you crying?” I asked him.“We have a daughter now, Alexa,” Mark said in the most gentle manner that any man could ever muster.Then, I recalled that a while back, I had heard the doctor saying something about having the baby today. Then suddenly, I realized that I wasn’t feeling as heavy as I had felt.It was as though a heavy weight had been lifted from me.I couldn’t help the light laughter that escaped my lips. Mark was still shedding tears, but it was obviously tears of joy. I was

IVYI stood, shell-shocked for a moment, and my heart racing very fast. The document almost fell from my hand, but somewhere in my subconscious, my fingers held on tightly to it.Lina Barry was supposed to alert me in case Donald Shell showed up unexpectedly, but she didn’t.It only dawned on me what seemed to be going on, especially with how they were standing side by side each other.“Lina, did you betray me?” That was the first question that came out of my mouth.And then a sly smile slowly appeared on her lips.“What do you think, Ivy?” Lina Barry questioned me in return.I staggered back in utter shock as my eyes darted towards Donald Shell’s gun.“Lina, maybe you should tell your little friend what happened,” Donald Shell said slyly.Then he waited for Lina Barry to reveal everything to me, and Lina Barry was more than willing to do just that.“You see, after Drew brought me here, Donald and I had a conversation,” Lina Barry started.Then she tenderly rubbed her palm up and down
