Sarah stepped out of the bathtub, her body very wet. She stretched out her hand to collect a towel on the towel rack but unfortunately, her wet feet slipped over the glistening tiles and she fell backwards.

Just when Sarah's back was about to hit the bathtub, Richard opened the bathroom door and saw what was going on. He swiftly dived towards Sarah, propped her up with his hands and brought her to his chest. Sarah's eyes poked out in panic and her lips shivered uncontrollably.

On instinct, Sarah raised her hands up and hugged Richard's neck tightly, her body naturally snuggling up to him. Richard held her firmer, staring deeply into her round sexy eyes that were soaked with fear.

Sarah stared back at him, her face covered in guilt.

He was always there when she needed him the most. But she had behaved badly towards him recently. She reasoned.

Their bodies naturally warmed up to each other following their closeness and meaningful gaze at each other just like before. Before they knew

    Mrs. Harriet made sure that Richard's boot was stocked with different gifts when they were ready to leave the old house. Some for Sarah while the rest were for the unborn child. Sarah stared with absolute astonishment as the guards carried the gifts to the car. "Mom, I don't think that these are necessary yet. I'm only three weeks pregnant. It's way too early for…" "What's too early? I bought gifts for both your husband and Kate before conceiving them. According to tradition, this helps attract children from the spirit world to a woman's womb and also wards off any spirit that tries to steal the child away from the woman's womb. So, I bought these gifts for your child long before now too. You can see the result now," Mrs. Harriet explained, looking very serious. Sarah laughed out loud at this superstition. "Mom, you don't believe this fallacy, do you?" Sarah asked in the middle of laughter. "Does it matter if I believe in it or not? We just need to fol

    Towards the evening time, Sarah went to the garden to enjoy the cool natural breeze. Two servants were waiting on her, some guards standing not far from them. Sarah was sitting before a plate of fruit salad and slowly chewing the succulent fruits. Her phone rang and she picked it up to see who the caller was. It was Daisy. Sarah had not seen Daisy for a long time now though they spoke on phone at times. She had planned to invite her over this weekend since Richard had permitted her to receive visitors and move around if she had the strength to. Her face lit up and she quickly picked the call. "Just when will your husband forgive you and permit you to go out? So many things have happened recently and I need to share them with you," Daisy cried out over the phone. "Richard reversed his decision yesterday. I can go out now and have visitors too but I wasn't feeling too strong earlier today so I couldn't come to see you," Sarah explained. "You're not feeling

    Having sat outside for almost an hour now, Sarah felt chilly. She threw her hands across her shoulders to protect herself from the uncomfortable weather. Richard noticed this and pulled out his jacket immediately. He wrapped his jacket around Sarah's shoulders. "Let's go," he said as he stood up. Sarah was still pouting and sulking so she didn't say anything to him nor stand up to follow him. Richard bent down and carried her from the chair then went inside. The servants all looked down at once, not daring to take a second glance at the lovey-dovey couple. Because they were all super single, such sight wasn't good to behold. Since Sarah wanted to relax in the living room, Richard went upstairs to get a blanket for her. He covered Sarah up before going back upstairs to freshen up. The aroma of porridge plantain garnished with smoked fish and fresh vegetables wafted from the kitchen and filled the entire living room. Nanny Vera had instructed Clara to prepare porridge planta

    In the afternoon, Richard came to the mall to see Sarah. The customer service representative quickly came to inform Sarah that the CEO requested her presence in his office but saw Sarah attending to a customer so she went straight to her supervisor and relayed the message to her. The blond-haired lady widened her eyes in shock, raising her eyebrows high as she did this. Although most of them didn't know who the CEO of the Wilson industry was, from what they heard, he was as cold as an iceberg and very ruthless too. She wondered if Mr. Wilson had gotten wind of Sarah's regular absence from work and had decided to deal with her himself. Then Sarah was done for! This was something that the manager could handle, so if he had come here himself, then he surely had something bigger for Sarah. Else, why would he be here and asking for her? She reasoned.She quickly instructed someone to take over from Sarah while Sarah went up to see the CEO. As Sarah left, the cashiers began to speculate

    Sarah came down an hour later. Because she had taken her lunch already, she didn't plan to take a break any longer. The cashiers who were on morning shift had signed out from their computers in readiness for a break by the time that Sarah came back. Usually, every staff member on the morning shift had a particular time for their break but since Sarah had told the manager that she was on medication, she was permitted to take her break any time she liked. As Sarah got back to her section, the cashiers all gazed at her quizzically. When Sarah didn't give them the impression that she would say anything, they tactfully gathered around her, determined to find out what happened upstairs, maybe from her facial expressions if she refuses to talk.However, Sarah's expression was the same as before and even had a hint of happiness in it so they couldn't make head or tail of what happened upstairs. Sarah looked at them and realized what they were thinking immediately. "What did the CEO

    "Bella, show us the pictures you saw on the internet so we can all see him too. Many of us were on morning shift the day he was shown on television during the industry's ownership saga and didn't even see him," Bella gave her a mocking look. "Are you even in this country? Do you think that Mr. Wilson's pictures will still be on the internet by now? Of course they were all deleted from every platform within a few minutes that they were shared. As for the live broadcast of him, it's very unfortunate that you weren't there to watch him yourself," Bella said proudly as if she had just discovered that she was many poles ahead of them. Yes, she hadn't seen Richard physically just like some of them but at least, she had seen him on TV and the internet as well. This was enough to give her an edge over them. "I envy Petra and the old staff who had seen him here on some occasions. I should have submitted my application letter at the same time as them. How am I even sure

    Since they hadn't seen each other for a while now, Frank suggested that they chill out in a restaurant located within the same compound as the supermarket. Sarah agreed to it instantly and they both headed towards the restaurant. After all, Richard wouldn't be back until around 10pm or 11pm and going back to the villa now would only result in loneliness. Nanny Vera was always very busy, supervising the servants and making sure that everything was in order and was usually unavailable to keep Sarah company. Frank grabbed Sarah's hand as they chatted along and walked into the restaurant. Sarah felt something like light flash across their faces immediately they entered the restaurant. She looked around but only saw some couples dining together and so engrossed in their own worlds that they didn't pay any attention to the people who had just entered. Maybe it was just her imagination or one of the signs of pregnancy at an early stage. They walked to a vacant table and sat down. Frank

    Richard jerked the car door open, put Sarah on the passenger's seat then walked around to the driver's side. Sarah looked out of the car window and at the entrance of the restaurant. Two bodyguards dressed in black suits, white dress shirts and black ties, stepped out of the restaurant, dragging Frank to a car parked outside. They roughly threw him into the backseat of the car and entered the car too. More bodyguards came out from the inside of the restaurant and entered their different cars then drove away. Richard leaned over Sarah and fastened her seat belt as Sarah was so carried away, staring outside that she forgot to wear her seat belt. "Where are they taking him to?" Sarah queried with a trembling voice, her hands so white now. Her face was covered with fright and her eyes filled with painful agitation. Richard didn't say anything. It was as if Sarah wasn't talking to him. He turned the key in the ignition switch, pressed the accelerator and whizzed away. Sarah clen

    Two months later, Richard was in his study, flipping through his files absent-mindedly when Frank entered. Richard hadn't gone to his office since Sarah left. He looked up, pursing his lips. His sunken eyes had lost the energy and brightness in them before and he looked haggard too. "I learnt you haven't been eating nor sleeping well lately. You need to stay alive first if you hope to see Sarah again," said Frank. He had gone back to his apartment immediately after Sarah left. Sarah had called Lucy and quickly employed her to take special care of her friend before leaving the country.Richard didn't say anything. "It has been two months, man. You need to brace up and discuss with your wife," "I can't, Frank. Sarah avoided me throughout my three weeks stay in London. She wouldn't even let me talk to her. I have had several interviews with different media to exonerate myself but it seems she has deleted me from her memory and doesn't even listen to any news

    Sarah didn't care if she died or lived. She beat the traffic lights and didn't step on the break until she got to the clubhouse. She took an elevator and in no distant time, she was standing at the passage that led to Richard's private room here. Sarah didn't know whether to enter or just stand there.She knew that this would break her completely if it happened to be true that Richard was here with a woman. She really hoped that Kim was lying. Richard's personal bodyguards approached Sarah. They had been standing there even when Sarah walked in but Sarah was just too emotional to notice them. Her eyes reddened and her lips trembled when she saw them. This was actually true! He even instructed his guards to wait outside while…" Sarah broke into tears again. Some minutes later, she wiped her tears away and was determined to see Richard himself before leaving. The guards tried to stop her but couldn't. They didn't know what their master was doing with another lady inside but they knew

    Richard was in a meeting when his phone rang, he picked up the phone and saw the caller's ID. He ignored the call but the caller wouldn't stop calling so he blocked the line instantly.A few minutes after the meeting, his phone rang again. It was a new number so he picked the call and listened. "You don't have to block my lines, we're not enemies. I only wanted us to talk for the last time," Richard recognized the voice immediately. "There's nothing to talk about, Kimara. I'm a married man now, remember?" Richard said, his voice very cold. "If you continue to treat me like an enemy, I might as well kill myself. I can't lose my childhood friend simply because he's married. Don't you care about how I'll feel if you cut me off abruptly?" "You'll surely get a good man that will genuinely love you, Kimara," said Richard. "I know that, okay? All I ask is just to speak to my friend for the last time. I heard your wedding ceremony is coming up in

    The next day, Sarah prepared to leave for work, this time, she wasn't in a hurry. She was the director of this company now and so, she wasn't answerable to any person except the chairman of the company who happened to be her husband too. Every other person receives orders from her now. Sarah first went to the first floor to see Frank. After making sure that he was well taken care of, she left the villa in her new Ferrari.She drove into the parking lot and parked her car. When she alighted from the car, she saw some customers who parked their cars in the same parking space as hers, staring at her, awestruck. Sarah wondered why they were all staring at her. She thought briefly and realized that her car was the latest model and more expensive than every other car parked there.Sarah pretended she didn't notice their obvious gaze and walked into the mall. Sarah would have gone to her office which was located on the same floor as the CEO'S, through the private elevator but decided to se

    Sarah was a bit tired now so Richard supported her as they alighted from the car. What she initially thought to be a mere interview later turned out to be so fun. She was truly happy to see all the people that came to the office today. It was more like a social gathering of family and friends than ordinary refreshment.Mrs. Harriet and Kate were solidly behind her and gave Sarah their full support. This mattered to Sarah the most. Initially, she thought that they would not like the idea of Richard making her his director instead of choosing his only sibling, Kate and that this might cause a rift within their family. Now, she realized how wrong she was. They were not only happy that she was chosen but even came to give her their full support. She was just so lucky to be a member of this wonderful family. Sarah was all smiles as they headed inside. There was a huge object covered with a tarpaulin before them. Sarah looked up and saw this. Two bodyguards walked towards the object and c

    There was a little surprising event after the media interviews. Sarah didn't know that Richard invited his family over including Carson and Daisy. She was surprised when she saw them enter the conference hall, their faces beaming with smiles. Sarah was too surprised for words. She just stared at them, not knowing what to say. Sarah looked at Richard who was standing beside her and saw him smiling.Everyone of them had a congratulatory package for her. They approached Sarah and gave her warm hugs one after the other then handed the presents to her. "Today is not yet my wedding day, why do you all have so many gifts?" Sarah uttered when she found her tongue. "Silly, must we get you presents only on your wedding day? It's good enough that you both have decided to act mature and make your marriage public. At least, I can proudly introduce you to all and sundry now," Mrs. Harriet said happily. Bella, Ava and some other female employees that were on morning shift were ca

    Inside Richard's office, Sarah was sitting on a swivel chair while Richard sat opposite her. Sarah seldomly wore heels and usually felt uncomfortable whenever she did. So immediately they entered Richard's office, she kicked her heels away so her feet could feel the fresh air inside the room. Richard brought her feet to his thighs and gently massaged them. Sarah wanted to stop him but Richard wouldn't listen to her. "I have told you before, you don't have to wear this if you feel uncomfortable in them," Richard reminded her. Sarah pouted her lips and said, "How can a woman not wear heels from time to time? Every great woman that ever existed on this planet wore heels at least, throughout their youthful age and on occasions like this. I just have to wear them more often so I can get used to them," Richard stared at Sarah as if he had just seen an idiot and gave her a light knock on the head. Sarah grimaced, holding the spot and giving him a belligerent look.

    An information was sent to the news media from the Wilson's public relations officer that Mr. Wilson was going to speak on his new stock, make a special announcement and also reveal the new director of his personal companies which comprised about 15 large malls, 8 hotels and so many other assets. The formal public statement would be made in two days' time. On D-Day, Sarah walked into the mall, hand in hand with Richard. She was dressed in a scarlet sleeveless short gown and a grey colored fluffy jacket then pencil black heels, her hair smoothly combed into a ponytail. Her face stood out like a painting, her eyes looking so bright and charming. Sarah looked completely stunning.The young polished man beside Sarah was a perfect description of a demigod. His face was extremely attractive, his lips so sexy and inviting. His deep sea blue eyes were a sight to behold. He was dressed in a well ironed grey suit with no single wrinkle on it, a white dress shirt inside then grey and striped ti

    It had been a week now since Sarah was discharged from the hospital. She was much stronger now and could walk around. Sarah was 7 weeks and three days gone now. Since she came back from the hospital, she hadn't experienced the morning sickness again. Sarah was happily knitting a bobble hat in the garden, Richard sitting a few inches away from her and going through his laptop when Kate drove into the compound. Richard looked up and saw Kate, dressed in a white evening gown with a black handbag between her fingers as she made towards them. Sarah followed his line of sight and was surprised to see Kate. She didn't inform them that she was coming today. It was indeed a surprise visit. Sarah stood up immediately to receive her. "Look at you, you look so beautiful and healthy now, Sarah!" Kate exclaimed. She hadn't seen Sarah since she was discharged from the hospital. She only came back from Dubai two days ago. Although Sarah always told her that she was fine whenever she calle
