The ringing of the phone jolted him from sleep. He opened his eyes slowly and rubbed his palm over his face tiredly. Looking at the caller ID, he became curious as he saw Alex."Hey," he called grumpily on picking the call."Amos, where are you?" Her anxious voice sounded from the phone.He sat up right on hearing her anxious teary voice. There was noise all over the phone and he couldn't hear her clearly any longer."Alex.. Alex, what's going on?" He asked immediately."Amos, Nat was involved in an accident!" Alex cried from the phone."What!!" He exclaimed, springing up from the bed."No..no..this is not happening!" He cried with his body trembling visibly."You need to come right to the hospital where I birthed Junior," she said and hung up immediately.The phone dropped slowly from his hands and landed on the bed. He stood transfixed for a moment with his eyes staring at space."Noo!!!" He screamed vigorously.**Rushing into the hospital lobby, he was directed to the emergency ro
They all rushed into the hospital building and proceeded to the private ward in which she was kept. He could feel his heart pounding underneath his dress as they stopped before the doctor who was stepping out of the ward."Doc, can we all go in now?" Adrian asked nervously."Yes, Mr Adrian, but I'll like to speak with you about something important," the doctor said sadly."Um, okay, doctor, I'll see you in the office but I'll have to see her first," he said and the doctor nodded and walked away.They all rushed into the ward and they walked slowly to the bed where they could see her lying with her eyes wearing a bandage.His heart flinched on seeing the bandage around her eyes and he could see the confusion on Alex and Adrian's face as they both stopped beside the bed."Nat," Alex called anxiously as she sat on the bed and took her hands slowly."Al.. Alex..is that you?" She called slowly.He smiled on hearing her voice and he watched her conversing excitedly with Adrian and Alex. He
He could hear his phone ringing on the desk as he typed on his computer. He raised his eyes to look at the caller ID and he wondered why Jason was calling."Hey Jas," he answered."Madison called, Nat is home now. We can drop by in the evening to pay her a visit," he said."Oh," he muttered. "Thanks for this, I'll round up immediately so I can go check on her," he said.He typed a few words into his computer and shut it down before grabbing his suit jacket hung around the swivel chair.He arranged some files into his desk and walked out of the office. On stepping out of the office, he bumped into Lucy in the lobby."And where are you heading?" She asked with a frown."None of your business, I'm done for today," he said."Tell that to my father when you receive your sack letter," she snapped and walked away from him."You know me too well to be scared of your father," he said with a smirk and walked away.Driving along the road, he thought of Lucy's words and scoffed. She's been a bitt
After eating, he made her head lie on his chest as he caressed her bumps softly. She giggled and he smiled broadly as he felt the baby's movements."He really needs daddy," she said with a smile as she wrapped her arms around him slowly."I told you, baby boy knows what he wants," he said with a smile of satisfaction and stroked her hair.They both kept silent for a while, feeling the baby's movements."So, what are your plans?" He whispered."My plans?" She asked in surprise."Yes, um..I mean..your plans with Kelvin?" He asked."Hmm," she mumbled."You still want to marry him?" He asked calmly."I can't tell for now, I'm awaiting his response," she said."His response?" He asked, trying to conceal his aggression."Yes, I mean..if he wants to go ahead with the wedding, it's fine, but I don't think so," she said sadly.He gulped and nodded."I don't think so either," he said."You don't think so, or you don't want it to happen?" She asked, raising her head from his chest."Both," he sa
With her legs curled on the bed, she licked her mango fruit as Alex arranged her luggage on the bed.The door opened and Adrian walked into the room."All set?" He asked with one hand in his chinos pocket."Almost," Alex said with a smile."Brother, has father been informed about the wedding preparations?" She asked from the bed."Um,.yeah..I told him about it yesterday. He wants to speak with you but I told him you're still recovering from the accident," he said."He still doesn't know I'm blind," she said with a scoff."You're not blind, Natasha! You'll regain your sight as soon as you give birth," he reproved her and she kept silent."Come on, darling, Kelvin will be here anytime soon," Alex urged, taking her hand."How do I look in the dress?" She asked.Alex looked at her husband whose face pulled into a frown."You look beautiful..," she remarked."I don't like the dress," Adrian whispered to her and she pinched him."What?" Natasha asked, holding the long blue maxi dress."Nothi
"Hello, beautiful, you must be the future Mrs Kelvin," she continued with her fake tiny voice."Nat, meet my cousin," Kelvin said with a smirk, standing up to meet Kemi who giggled like a child."Oh..um..you came earlier than expected," Natasha said with a smile."Yeah, I wanna take good care of you and your man," she said with a giggle as she placed her arms around Kelvin's shoulder while he pressed her bum from behind.She held back her giggle and placed her arms around Kelvin's shoulder as he pressed her bum softly."That's great. He said you're a wedding planner?" Natasha asked, sipping her tea innocently."Yeah, and I've got you covered, madam," she said with a smirk as Kelvin planted kisses on her neck."Um, Kelvin, where are you?" Natasha asked, feeling the table with her hands."I'm..I'm..here..," he stammered, pulling away from Kemi whose arms were around his neck."I was just sorting out the things she bought," he said with a smile as he winked at Kemi and walked over to Nat
He bumped into Kemi who was in the passage, pacing angrily."What took you so long?!" She asked in her normal voice as she stood angrily in front of him."I'm.. I'm sorry, she asked me to stay beside her till she fell asleep. You know, I need to be careful about things like these. She's blind and can also be sensitive," he explained calmly."Cut that crap, Kelvin! Natasha is the most stupid woman on earth and don't even think she'll suspect a thing about us!" She snapped."You're right, but we still need to be careful," he said.She smiled and placed her arms around his shoulder."Now that she's asleep, let's continue from where we stopped. The fire in me is still burning, I wanna have you," she cried on his shoulder."Babe, you should be preparing her meal so she'll have something to eat when she wakes up," he said."What! I didn't stay up waiting for sex just for you to tell me this?!" She yelled in his face."Shh," he hushed her with his finger placed on her lips."You expect me to
"No, we can't deal with her pregnancy right now. Her brother may suspect a thing; you know, I feel he's in support of Amos," he refuted."Come on, stop being a coward. That baby needs to be terminated. It's as revenge to Amos for dumping me," she said with a sinister smile."Kems, don't ruin things for me, please! Now that she has asked you to leave, we need to be more careful so as not to make her suspect your presence in the house," he said in whispers."So, I'll be a prisoner in my own house?" She asked angrily."For a while," he said with a grin, touching her chin."Hurry up with the food so she doesn't starve," he said."Kelvin, I can't believe you're doing this!" She snapped."For us," he said with a smile as he pecked her cheek and hurried out of the kitchen.Walking to the dining table, he saw her drinking a glass of juice which he had kept in front of her."Babe, the food is getting ready," he said with a smile as he walked towards her."Um, I need fresh air. We can take a st
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
