Mateo's testimony threw the court into an uproar and she couldn't help but smile as her eyes met with her mother who was staring at her in utter dismay.

She could hear murmurings amongst the boys and she knew they must all be surprised about Mateo being hale and hearty when everyone thought he was still on his sickbed.

She looked at Amos and he pulled a surprised face like one demanding an explanation. Her eyes met with Madison and she smiled. They should wait for the bigger surprise, she said to herself as she looked away from Madison.

She could hear the prosecution lawyer requesting to bring in another witness which drew everyone's interest.

"What other witness? Isn't father the only witness we have for now?" Adrian asked in surprise, staring at her face.

"Be calm,.brother," she urged as she patted his shoulders.

"I present to you all, Mrs Alex's Steel," the prosecution lawyer announced and there was an uproar in court as everyone rose to their feet immediately.

    His jaws stiffened, seeing them locked in a warm embrace. He gritted his teeth in anger, wondering why Kelvin would show up at such a time. He watched them converse with their hands together and he couldn't bear the sight any longer. Turning around, he walked away instantly.Her face beamed with a smile seeing his handsome face staring at her face."I thought you left for good," she said with a smile as she looked deep into his eyes."I'm so sorry, Nat, I've been so busy. I was trying all my best to reach you while I was out of the country. The network over there is quite poor," Kelvin explained."Where did you go?" She asked in surprise."I traveled to Kenya for my dad's upcoming campaign. We spoke with one Mr Ajul who is a Nigerian, but lives in Kenya. He's a big fish in politics and he has promised to help my dad," he related."Oh, um..your dad's political campaign is around the corner," she said with a smile and he nodded."I'm so sorry for not keeping in touch. I arrived in Niger

    Their eyes bulged as they saw Alex walking to meet them. She was wearing a white nightie and her face beamed with a smile as she caught sight of them."Alex," they both called.She smiled and took the baby from Natasha. He was asleep already and she made him rest on her shoulder."What?" She asked as she saw the anxious look on their faces."I checked on you in your room but there was no response," she said to her."Look who wants to ruin her brother's beautiful moment," Alex said with a chuckle and they both smiled wryly."What's wrong?" She asked, looking at their nervous faces."We are planning to tell Adrian about the pregnancy tonight," Amos revealed."Opps!" She exclaimed."Whatever way, he has to know. We really need to tell him now that he is still in a happy mood. Inform the boys, and we will make it appealing to him," she added and they both nodded.Watching Alex walk to the garden, they both trailed behind her slowly. Stepping into the garden, they were welcomed by the cheer

    She watched Alex arrange the dishes on the dining table that morning with Adrian right beside her, helping her out. The house was a bit calm as everyone had dispersed for their various homes that morning."So, you actually thought it was wise to reject Amos as a mate?" Adrian asked, wiping his hand with a napkin."I can't stand him, brother, he's a coward. I'm better off alone," she said, licking her Orange."You know, it's not as easy as you thought. We both know Amos and marriage is far from his thoughts right now, and that's the reason I warned you about him," Alex said with a smile."You actually wanted me to be with him," she cut in."What!" Adrian exclaimed, turning to look at them."No..no.. you're mistaken. Come on, I wanted Kelvin out of the picture because of what he did to you, and that's the reason I wanted Amos in your life at that moment," Alex defended."A lot took place while I was abroad, right?" Adrian asked, taking his seat."I can't marry Amos, I'll raise the baby

    "This is a joke, right? You're going to marry Kelvin?!" Alex's eyes bulged as she looked at the couch where Natasha was sitting with her legs crossed stylishly."It would save me a lot, it would save my family's reputation from humiliation," she said with a sigh.Alex scoffed and placed her arms akimbo."You weren't bothered about your family's reputation when you thought of raising the baby alone; what changed now?" She asked in surprise."Alex, Kelvin's love for me is sincere," she said softly with her gaze on the floor."And your love for him?" She asked.She didn't reply and she kept on counting her fingers slowly."You love Amos, don't you?" Alex continued."I can't love a man that pushed me out with my baby! You can imagine the pain he caused me by his actions!" She cried out loud."No man is perfect! No one is perfect including you! You've made bad decisions that hurt Amos in the past and he didn't take it to be the end of the road for you both," Alex explained, walking to the c

    She sobbed silently as Alex massaged her feet with her head resting on a pillow. "It's going to be alright. You don't expect Amos to act so cool with the news at first," Alex consoled while massaging her feet gently."He never wanted the baby, did he? Now look at all the embarrassment he's caused me. I pray Adrian doesn't see the news," she cried from the bed.The door flung open instantly and Adrian showed up in the room, wearing his usual black suit and tie with his face brewing fire and brimstone."Hon..honey..," Alex cried, standing up right."I need you to explain this, Natasha!" He slammed, throwing his phone to the bed where she sat, wiping off her tears.She picked up the phone and saw the news which had bursted the internet that night about the fight at the restaurant."Honey, we can't blame Nat for this. Amos overreacted," Alex explained calmly as she took hold of Adrian's arms."And why didn't you let me in? You think situations like this could be handled trouble-free?" He

    Stepping out of the building, he bumped into Natasha who was at the doorpost. They both stopped for a moment, and she tried to avoid his gaze which was piercing all over her body."You know, I'm not going to pester you any further. It's your life, your choice. Do what makes you happy," he said.Before she could say a word, he walked away and she kept on staring at him as he proceeded to his car.Driving out of the mansion, he felt satisfied with Adrian's advice. He had seen the look on Natasha's face when he promised not to pester her any longer. He would give her a little space to see if she'll run back to him, he thought as a smirk appeared on his face.TWO WEEKS LATER.Inside the beautiful garden at the Thompson's mansion, afrobeats music buzzed all over the place as people danced and vibe to the jiggling music.It was the night of Madison's remarriage to Jason and a small party was thrown to celebrate the couple."I haven't seen Natasha, she is not coming?" He asked Alex who was at

    He sat at the bar, taking a shot from his glass. Sinking deep in thought, he couldn't stop thinking about Natasha getting married to Kelvin. He was running out of patience and he needed to act fast, he thought."Look who we have here," he heard a familiar voice and he turned to see Kemi dressed erotically in black fishnet dress, showing her undies and bra. He gulped as she pushed back her black long braids and sat beside him at the bar."Amos," she called, caressing his shoulder. "Are you okay?" She asked."I'm.. I'm fine. Where the hell have you been?" He asked, looking at her face.She smacked her black lips and smiled."I've been out of the country with my boo," she said, caressing his neck."You have a new boo?" He asked and she chuckled."Hmm," she mumbled, with her hand resting on her chin."You both went out on a vacation?" He asked."Nah, we traveled out for business to Kenya," she replied."Kenya?" He asked thoughtfully."Yes," she answered."And when did you return?" He aske

    He kept on staring at Natasha as he thought of his encounter with Kelvin last night. No doubt, Kelvin was the one behind the attack, he thought as he tried to connect the scenes; but he isn't going to spill the beans for the respect he has for Natasha. He'll wait till they're alone and he'll let her know the kind of man she was about to marry."I..I don't know the person behind the attack. But I know someone sent those men after me and the truth will come out soon," he said."And..how did you escape?" Natasha asked."I was rescued by the soldiers living in the area. They heard the gunshot and came out from their houses. They shot back at the men who fled the scene immediately they saw the soldiers," he related."God spared your life," Alex said with a smile."He's giving you a second chance to repent from your debauched way of life," Chelsea added and they all laughed."We're glad Natasha and Alex are here. We'll be taking our leave now," Madison said, picking up her bag."I'm going w

    He smiled, looking at his handsome self in the mirror. He was donned handsomely in a royal blue suit and black bowtie which suited him perfectly."Have you heard from the ladies?" He asked the boys who were dressing up in the room."Oh, yes. I called Chelsea, and Natasha is almost ready," Ben replied as he helped hang the wristwatch around his wrist."We don't wanna be late, everyone, hurry up!" Derrick urged, clapping his hands.The door opened and Mrs Eno stepped into the room, fully dressed in her blue traditional George fabric."Nosa, you don't want to keep the bride waiting," she snapped from the door."I'm almost done," he said."Your father's kinsmen are in Lagos already. We need to hurry up because I'll be going to the reception hall to welcome them just after we leave the court," she replied."I'm done," he said, looking at his wristwatch and it was 7:55 am. The boys began to hail him as they all walked out of the room and they danced towards the beautifully decorated cars in

    Walking out of the boardroom, his face was all smiles as he shook hands with the men and women at the door."Congrats, sir. And another big congratulations for your wedding tomorrow," some of the men said to him as they all shook hands with him firmly.He couldn't believe he'll one day stand in front of nobles, men and women whom he couldn't even say 'hi' to in the past.He smiled warmly, seeing his former colleagues staring at him from a distance. He is their boss now, not just their boss, but the CEO of the company. He could see Daren and Marvin turning away to walk into their offices and he knew they were probably feeling timid because of his new position in the company."Hey," he called, walking to meet them.They both stopped and looked at him in surprise."Why are you guys avoiding me?" He asked with a smile."No, we..um.. you're our boss now and you demand a high level of respect," Daren said to him."You think I'm going to change because of my elevated level?" He asked but they

    "I had my doubts when Amos claimed to be attacked by you at the night when he caught you with Kemi at the club. But I never wanted to believe that you're still cheating on me with Kemi," she said with a sad smile."You know, if you had cheated with someone else, it wouldn't have hurt this deep. You cheated and plotted with the same woman I called my best friend!" She yelled and Amos urged her to be calm."That same day you invited me to your hotel room, on my way out, I saw Kemi's car leaving the hotel premises. She was there with you, Kelvin! She was there!" She yelled."Baby, be calm," Amos urged while patting her shoulders.She sniffed and shook her head in disbelief."Nat.. I'm sorry," Kelvin cried."No, you'll never be sorry!" She snapped.She gulped and waved back her hair."On my way home, I got lost in thoughts, you know, I was beginning to sink into a mental depression and then the accident happened. I wasn't hurt nor did I even attain a scratch because my car was so protecti

    The hall turned into chaos as Adrian and Kelvin fought on the floor while the men tried to separate them."Natasha!!" Madison and Alex exclaimed in unison as they ran to the floor where she was seated, gasping for breath.They helped her up from the floor as the chaos continues and Mr Ajebade and his kinsmen could be seen, pleading with Mateo Steel."Are you alright? Take a deep breath," Alex said, patting her shoulders tenderly."Yes.. I'm alright..," she panted with her hand holding her chest.Just then, Amos and the boys could be seen, rushing into the hall like mad people. Without looking in her direction, he surged towards Kelvin who was trying to break free from Adrian's grips and he began to deal him with blows on the floor."They're killing my son!!" Mrs Ajebade cried as she rushed towards them.Adrian stood up immediately and turned his vicious bloodshot eyes towards her."And you," he said sinisterly and she began to retreat backwards immediately.Before he could speak, she

    The music kept on playing and Natasha and the women moved slowly to the stage while the pandemonium continued."Sola, don't do this to us!" Mrs Eno cried as the men pushed her away violently."Don't touch my mother! Don't touch my mother!" Amos yelled, pushing the men vigorously and they landed him on the floor while his friends tried to fight back.He stood up from the floor immediately and tried to run past the men blocking their paths from the stage."Natasha!!" He cried out loud.She heard his voice and she stopped one more time."Keep going, don't let him be a distraction to you!" Madison snapped and she kept on walking slowly in the midst of the women.Adrian and his men rushed to the scene and he could see the heavily built men engaging Amos and his family."Stop!" He yelled at the men and they all retreated.He began to pant heavily and his angry eyes turned to Amos and his friends who were panting heavily in front of him."How dare you, Amos? How dare you bring your family to

    At the entrance of the glamorous splendidly designed reception hall, a pandemonium could be seen heating up between Amos and his family who were trying to find their way past the entrance but were stopped by the heavily built Bouncers."I didn't come here for any nonsense party! I want to see Sola and my grandchild!" Mrs Eno barked while tying her cloth firmly around her waist.Her two daughters could be seen, trying to make her calm but all to no avail."You guys know who we are to the bride?! How dare you stop us from gaining entrance?!" Amos barked, taking his transparent glasses off."Mr man, this is an order from above! Besides, you weren't granted a pass. You all have to leave before we handle with you mercilessly!" One of the men growled in front of him."Deal with my son?! Deal with who?!" Mrs Eno yelled, rushing towards them but her son pulled her back.Just then, Jason and his friends were seen, walking towards them."What's going on?" They all asked in confusion."They've r

    Her finger caressed the sharp blade of the flint knife she was holding as she sat on the bed with her gloomy face looking down at the floor in despair.She had been a tool in the hands of Kelvin and his family and she couldn't believe this was the same man who would soon become her baby's daddy. She sniffed and wiped the tears that trickled down her cheek. She won't let him know of the pregnancy, and by the time she is done with him, she'll travel out to a distant country and then inform his family about their grandchild and how she had murdered their son. By then, it would have been too late to get hold of her, she thought with a smirk.Now she understands what it means to be betrayed by the people you love. This was the same way Natasha had felt when she had betrayed her trust by sleeping with Kelvin. It's too late to turn back now, she thought as she let out a sigh and stood up from the bed.She heard a knock on the door and she knew he was right there at the door. She hid the flin

    "Ouch, Kelvin you're so sweet," she cried in ecstasy as he pulled away from her and fell to the other side of the bed.She smiled broadly as she dragged the duvet over their unclad sweaty bodies and he spread his arms across her shoulders."How do we keep having sex after the wedding?" He asked amidst pants."There is no way I'm coming here with Natasha around here. The last experience was terrible; I almost broke a limb," she complained and he laughed."We're going to meet in a private hotel room. You know, after the wedding, we've got to be careful so her family doesn't hear about our affair," he said."Hmm, I just can't wait for this to be over so we'll travel out of the country together," she said with pouty lips."Babe, you know, my mother was so happy to know that Natasha agreed to a traditional wedding. The divorce is going to be so easy, no paper binding us together by law," he said with a smirk and she chuckled."But I still prefer we get rid of her because her family would be

    ADRIAN'S MANSION."Aww.. this dress is breathtaking!" Madison gushed as she touched the emerald green expensive beaded George fabric made in a buba style dress. Natasha smiled wryly, swaying back and front as the female designers adjusted the dress on her body which suited her perfectly."It's gorgeous," Alex complimented from the bed where she sat, arranging the coral beads on the bed."Is Jason done with Kelvin's attire?" Natasha asked."I think so. It'll be delivered the day after tomorrow," Madison replied. "You can take it off now, she's done with the fitting. Thank you ladies for a job well done," Alex said to the ladies."I'm so exhausted right now," Natasha lamented as the ladies took off the dress and she sat on the bed while rubbing her tummy."He's almost due," she said to Alex and Madison as soon as the ladies were out of the room."Did you hear from Amos?" Madison asked, packing up the expensive jewelry on the bed."Not really. He hasn't called since the last time we we
