A Contract Marriage With The Billionaire’s Mad Son The Raging Battle Of Survival For A Bitter Wife
Eva grinned briefly, “He was expecting war I guess. He wants you to finish strong. That is why you must not give in to the fuss my sisters are pulling. Your right is your right. My father drafted the clauses in the marriage agreement to benefit you and your husband. This the time you must stand firm and stop shying away.”I hummed and sucked my teeth; when I thought my husband’s sanity, which was restored, would fetch the peace I had long desired, I never knew a fresh endless war had just begun. I wondered how I was going to cope with two toxic sisters that were ready to pour hell on me.“They feel cheated, disgruntled and rejected. They think I am stealing from them. If my husband were here I wouldn’t bother because he has been destined to be the heir.” I sniffed back tears, “indeed Brian’s absence is the reason for this war. I wonder why he would want me to finish strong. Is he not going to survive the coma? Does that sound like a farewell?”Warm tears trickled down my cheeks.She i

Salsa was serving breakfast when I walked past her and grabbed her arm, “Apologies for yelling at you the other day,” I said, a contagious smile hanging on my face.She shrugged and screwed up her face. “Directing my mouth to my business would be honorable. I hate being yelled at. You and I have come a long way in this villa. I am hurt that you of all people don’t trust me.” She scowled and continued.“I bought this for you. I guess you will like it.” I pulled out the pack from my bag and handed over to her. “I guess you will like it.”“Chocolate?” Salsa intoned and smiled gracefully before picking out a bar to lick, “How do you know that I like chocolate? Have you been stalking me?” she asked jocularly and licked more of the chocolate.We burst into brief laughter.She breathed uneasily. “Well, I just want to let you know that Fanny wants to have breakfast with you, so I would suggest you be in your best dress. You know he hates it when you look unkempt.” she paused and dimmed her ey

“Keep shut! What arrant nonsense! You are blurting out nonsense!” Fanny sprang to his feet and pointed at them, “Now listen up, Melissa can only be divorced by one person, and he is no other than Brian, her husband…”Opula yelled back, “Brian is unconscious in the hospital. He is in a coma. And we don’t know what fate awaits him. This is the third week and he is yet to wake.”At that point, I couldn’t lay low anymore. I had to put them in the box they belong to. “And it doesn’t mean he is not going to wake up!”I yelled, “Are you the giver of life? You are both senseless grownups. I pointed at them, “Why don’t you learn to keep shut and wait for my husband to wake up before the marriage annulment.”Kate chuckled mockingly at me, “Your husband?” she turned her gaze at Opula , who joined her to let a scoffing laughter at me, “Did you hear the poor little thing? Your husband? You are but an arranged wife, guided by a contract; it is only a gold digger like you that will stick around even

Kate was staring at the statement of account from the Fanny Group’s account department. And it was obvious money was being withdrawn from Brian’s current account. This had never happened before, and it called for attention.“For Christ's sake, Brian is in a coma and we don’t even know if he will survive and someone, somewhere is withdrawing from this account. Who the hell could be doing this?” she asked within herself as the initial account balance of $1 million being reduced to $800 thousand.Opula stepped into her chamber, looking anxiously skeptical. For over an hour she had been wondering who could be stealing from the account, so as soon as Kate walked into her chamber, she handed her the statement of account.“Hey Kate, do you have any clue about who could be doing this?” she asked and took the paper to have a proper look at it.Kate shook her head, “I wish I had. The person also made another withdrawal of $100 thousand today, and it is obvious it is being done with a credit car

I hadn’t been pregnant in my life until now and if you should seek my opinion I would say my pregnancy was full of throwing up. Recently I could barely leave the confines of my chamber because I didn’t want to attract suspicion from any offensive throwing up.Pregnancy was strange to me yet considered disgraceful; even when I wanted to be pregnant for Brian; a dream I had longed for since I fell for him.So on this day, I was busy throwing up the roasted fish and sauce I had just eaten, still perched in the closet , waiting for more to happen and didn’t realize Eva was already in my chamber, staring at my test result with furious anxious eyes.I wouldn’t have realized it because I was fond of playing Brian’s songs on the CD player just to let his sonorous voice fill the entire chamber to bring him closer to my heart; this had helped me avoid boredom and save myself the endless nights of tears as I looked forward to the day, Brian would wake up from the coma, sit by my side to sing his

Troubled And TensedWhen Eva and I drifted to the window we saw a bizarre sight; two uniformed police men were in the sitting room with Fanny, Opula, Kate and their husbands, Ken and Frank.Eva’s husband, Tony, was seated in the sofa, arms folded, his keen green eyes watching out for what was about to happen.At the time, there was so much tension at the villa; the presence of the police officers had attracted the attention of a handful of paparazzi and journalists who hung outside the villa, with recorders ready to invade the villa of the richest man in Rio HondoThe servants had learned to face their business and be at their duty post after Fanny yelled at them the other time, so no one would want to incur the wrath of Fanny Luis, a ruthless billionaire.There was an issue here; Fanny was standing on the way of the police men who had already gained entrance into the sitting room. They were invited by Opula and Kate to do the searching.Fanny was yelling madly at them for inviting t

I could see this fear piling up in the eyes of Eva as she watched me search for the credit card under my bed, the shelves, the lockers and wardrobe.She hastened me with those bulged eyes before joining me in the search. “Where the hell did you keep it, Melissa?” she whispered to me, scouting for assurance in my sweating face, “Where did you keep it?” she whispered once more and became more tensed than I was.She had to be because she was very aware of the consequences that would befall me if the credit card was found with me.Through trembling hands I searched for a credit card I thought I kept under my bed. Right about now, ill fate was about to embrace me and I couldn’t afford to miss out of this marriage now; not now my husband was in a coma.So much thought hung over my mind now that I couldn’t figure out where I kept the credit card, but I knew it was somewhere in my chamber.“I…I …I” the stuttering became too much, perhaps because the police wouldn’t stop pounding on my door.

Opula seeing that I wasn’t going to give way soon, turned her sorry face to Fanny Luis, “Father,” she called, looking pitiable, “Could you please tell your god-damn daughter-in-law to leave the way? I must do the search with the police!” she yelled and curved her lops in fury, “She is not going to like me if I should get physical with her.”Shaking his head in disapproval, Fanny replied, “You can’t get physical with her because she is in her chamber and not yours. Besides, this time around I can’t stop my god-damn daughter-in-law. It is her prerogative right to decide who goes in …”Kate interrupted harshly, “And the villa belongs to us! This is Fanny’s property. She is nothing but a contract wife to my brother and this shouldn’t give her the guts to override us. What arrant nonsense is this? Father, you have allowed this bitch to insult you!”Fanny refuted her, “Oh keep shut, you don’t know what I wrote in my will so you can’t say who owns the villa.” He turned his gaze to Opula, “By

“Do you mean Opula Luis, the same Opula that I know is pregnant for my son all this while? Come on, Fanny Luis, I don’t like it when people pull my legs. I do understand the fact that I earnestly want Rod to choose a wife but you don’t have to joke with it.”Fanny sat up once he caught the interest in the eyes of James Benson, “I am not pulling your legs my dear friend. I have only been searching for the appropriate time to break such news to you. Don’t forget you wanted Melissa for your son, so I have been careful not to break the rules.”“What rules are you talking about?” James interrupted Fanny, “Your daughter has been pregnant for my son and you kept it away from me all this while. Oh my goose!” James stroked his hair in surprise, “To hell with Melissa . I only chose Melissa because my son loves her so much but with the current development I can tell you it is Opula that my son loves.”James chuckled, line of joy stood on his face, “Oh I see, James, why don’t you tell me?

A Contract Marriage With The Billionaire’s Mad Son I Arrested Mom
All eyes fell on me once I cheered up and sniffed heavily. Already the police men had entered the hospital and advanced towards us with an investigative countenance and scowled faces which struck us with silence and suspicion.“Why is police in my hospital?” doctor bill queried anxiously and settled his suspicious gaze on me, “I can’t recall inviting the police to my hospital. Who could have invited the police?”There was a hush of silence when the police detective surged closer and queried everyone with his scarcely familiar look which had so much gloom.“Good evening, doctor,” the detective greeted warmly and shot his dark eyes at us, “We got an urgent phone call from this hospital. The voice couldn’t speak out but we traced the phone call to this hospital. The police detective said to Doctor Bill with so much expectation for an explanation, “Perhaps you may know who did.”“I did, detective,” my voice sounded with an iota of confidence and conviction, “I made the phone call to you b

My heart thudded with danger and I had no doubt something was wrong with Brian. The color had drained from my face and I wasn’t thinking about the baby in my womb than my husband.Mom rolled her eyes at me and about to step away when Doctor Bill stepped out with a fallen countenance ; I swallowed hard when I saw those red eyes of his and dark face ; he seemed as one that escaped hell.Mom had paused to know what news doctor had to share with me.

The doctor spoke so loudly, obviously making a noise to attract attention and Opula gestured at him to bring down the tone of his voice.“You know someone could be listening to us,” Opula whispered, “Please, take things calmly. You must not make a noise about it. But I have told you the forty percent is not going to be possible. Why would you demand I pay you forty percent of a contract you know nothing about…”Doctor Bernard burst into a mocking laughter and grinned afterward, “Oh do you think I know nothing about it? Is that what you think? I am going to tell you what I know about it. The Bensons want Melissa as an arranged wife but your greed wouldn’t rest, you forced yourself on your ex-boyfriend, Rod thinking he will get you pregnant but unfortunately this pregnancy belongs to Ken,”Kate was still eavesdropping at the door at the time, Doctor Bernard made that statement.

A Contract Marriage With The Billionaire’s Mad Son Earnest Struggle
At the time ambulance came to pick up Opula who was still coughing out blood, Salsa was peeping from the kitchen where she prepared lunch. She smiled evilly and gritted her teeth as she shook her head in vengeance. She hoped the abortion would happen this time around; she couldn’t wait to hear news of Opula losing the pregnancy; only then would her joy be full.From the kitchen, she peeped out to the ambulance personnel attending to Opula, and she could recall how she did it;Opula had requested for a fresh orange juice a while ago and Salsa prepared it for her with mixture of her poisonous herbs that would abort the pregnancy. Salsa was responsible for the bloody cough Opula was experiencing and if Opula should cough out blood for a longer time she could lose the pregnancy.“Until the teeth of my vengeance bite you, I shall know no rest. Opula, you are going to suffer in my hands until you lose that pregnancy. I will not remain alive and watch you get pregnant for a man I love so muc

When Kate barged in on Opula, she met her sobbing and weeping in her palms. She was red on the face and the color drained from her face; it was obvious Opula had been weeping all night.“Oh my goose!” Kate exclaimed and paced to the side of Opula and clutched her teary chin, “What happened to you again? Why are you all tears? The day is too early for this, Opula,” Kate petted her and caught sight of the picture on the bed and when she picked it up, it was rod’s picture, “Is it because of Rod Benson? What did he say to you again?”Opula swallowed hard, sobbed even greatly and managed to say, “He has refused to pick my phone calls ever since he rejected the pregnancy. The most annoying thing is that Rod wants me to abort the pregnancy. Can you imagine? Does he hate you that much?”“What!” Kate snapped and snorted, “Is he sick in the brain? How could he suggest such a thing? Oh my God!” Kate raised her gaze in frustration and asked yet further, “Did you show him the paternity test result

“MELISSA!” she called, her body shivering, the fierceness of her face threatening as she molded her fist, “What are you doing here? Are you supposed to be here at this time?” she asked, her hands trembling.I hummed and quoted, “Because the bird has learnt to fly without perching, the hunters have learnt to shoot without missing. I knew you were up to ruin. A leopard cannot lose its spot. So this is it mom. You demanded to know the ON and OFF knob so that you could sneak in and turn off the oxygen machine and suffocate Brian? Your evil has caught up with you.”Mom’s jaw sagged as she fumed, “You rotten maggot. I am only doing you a favor. I really want to have you back as my daughter but you must be set free from this evil marriage. He has to die.”I advanced forward and replied her, “You got to be bluffing, huh. My husband?

Promptly I flinched from sleep; it was a dream.“Oh my God,” I whispered and wiped my face of the nervous sweat that trickled down. “Brian cannot die. What sort of dream is this? Something must be happening to my husband,” I said to myself, gasped, stroked my hair confusedly and picked up my phone to call the doctor…***Seated in front of the police detective were Fanny, Opula and Kate. While they spoke, the police scribbled down vital information on a paper, with keenness in his eyes.“The total sum of money is one million dollars,” Fanny said in a baritone voice, “I believe the money is somewhere in my villa, obviously in one or two chambers. I really want you and your boys to fish out and punish anyone found guilty of stealing the money.”The police detective winked after scribbling down some more information from Fanny, “Um, Mr. Fanny, this one million dollars in question was it stolen from your company, the Fanny Group or from the villa? Because you made mention of the money was
