Kate had spent the night with Doctor Bernard and was speeding back to the office when she got a phone call from her husband. Quickly, she stepped on the brake and brought the car to a halt.She shut her eyes and gazed upon the phone which had started ringing repeatedly. She turned around, thinking Frank had seen her leave the hotel, but she was sure nobody saw her.Little did she know that Salsa had placed an eye on her and each time she visited Doctor Bernard at the Continental Hotel. Salsa had often lurked by the corner to peep at her. Although Salsa was yet to know who she was visiting, she knew Kate was cheating on Frank.Kate clenched her teeth, “Oh why is he calling repeatedly? I hope he hasn’t seen me. What could be the problem now?” she glanced around and didn’t see Frank. She dared to pick the phone call but held back after a second thought.She shrugged, turned on the engine and sped back to the office with so much guilt hanging in her mind.Once she pulled up into the compo
James was unperturbed and could barely stay at a spot at the hospital. Thi time he was pacing up and down at another time he was peeping at the labor room looking out for Opula.Lady Zara wasn’t as disturbed as James she kept her cool and only got herself busy with her phone. Although Opula’s delivery was induced, Lady Zara knew it was the appointed time for her to deliver the baby.Only one prayer had been on going in the mind of lady Zara. The opposite of such prayer was also ongoing in the mind of James. Whereas James wanted the baby to survive, Lady Zara wanted the bay dead at delivery; because she knew she was going to have problems convincing James not to make the baby heir.A few nights ago James had told lady Zara about his intention to make his grandchild heir to his empire, since Rod had cut ties with him. This was not just one of the ways he wanted to get back at Rod, also he wanted to fulfill essence and satisfaction in that his mind would be at peace when he was no more,
James Benson never knew distraction was going to come from Opula. It was Monday morning and he had work up his sleeves. Opula had taken a compulsory maternity leave off work since she was due to give birth in few days.Often than not, James had told Opula to keep the maids around and monitor her movement because her labor could strike at any given time. The doctor had often told Opula about her expected date of delivery and she must stay out of trouble too.At noon James was dumbfounded when his secretary appeared at the door and told him, “Boss , your daughter-in-law, Opula is here.”If not for one thing, James would have screamed at the top of his voice. He screwed up his face and waited for Opula to walk in, just to clarify his doubt.What the hell are you doing her, Opula? And who told you to come to the office? Are you supposed to be here now? I guess you don’t know what time your pregnancy is,” James fumed at her and was hugely disturbed about the sudden appearance of Lady Zara
Rod’s car pulled over and once Stella heard the noise she came out to inform him that I and the twins were deep asleep. Like she expected, Rod didn’t just alight and walked straight. Rather, he advanced towards the trunk of his car and brought out package items with flowers.Stella smiled from ear to ear and mumbled, “What a man. I see no reason Melissa shouldn’t marry him. Brian is dead, so what is she waiting for?”Stella’s smile was still held and when Rod locked gaze with her, she blushed, putting herself in my shoes, and wished men treated her the way Rod did to me. But inwardly Stella had agreed she was going to ensure things worked out between Rod and I.“Hi,” Stella greeted and hasted to assist him with the gifts, “You are welcome,” she added and stole a glance to see a ton of gifts were still in the trunk, “Hey you are back with this gifts spree,” Stella intoned and chuckled.Rod chuckled and shrugged. He would have accepted it as compliment but he often declared his love fo
When Doctor Bill walked into the sitting room , he met Eva looking all moody and stolen. Once he tossed his briefcase at the sofa, he took out his hand from behind and handed a flower over to her.“Happy workers day,” he said and smiled from ear to ear , “We are celebrating our staff week and it is mandatory we buy a gift for that special person in our lives, so I decided to buy you this.”Eva had been admiring the colorful, sweet-smiling flower and she couldn’t help to chuckle and stroke the colorful piece.“This is beautiful, Doctor Bill. Receiving a gift form you is the least thing I expected.”Doctor Bill noticed the grimace on her face disappear into contagious smile, “I am glad you like it. I thought you weren’t going to accept it. Most importantly, it adds smile on your face.”Eva placed the flower close to her bust, “This is very dear to my heart. I can’t recall the last time I got a gift from a man after my divorce. This is precious and priceless to me. I am grateful Doctor B
Brian was staring at my photo which he had gripped all this while in the music studio. Most times he endeared to sing without a picture of me interrupting him in the thought. And when he thought he could fight off the thought, he only realized that he couldn’t.Once he took off his ear pod, he sat down and fed his eyes with my photo. He knew if Eva was around she would have quarreled with him. Eva had come to believe that I had moved on with life.And there was no two ways about it. Brian didn’t realize when Eva stepped into the studio not only had Brian gotten drowned in thought about me, he was also humming a song which he dedicated to me.Although he was yet to develop the song, yet he found it alluring to hum it for his pleasure. He had too many reasons to believe he wasn’t going to see me again even Eva had reminded him severally.He just had only one problem right now and it was the problem of loving another woman. The other day Eva told him to focus on his career first and fate
