Because her mood had been sour for the past few days, her morning sickness seemed to have returned. She constantly felt weak and most times, it seemed as if the earth was spinning before her. Sarah tried to stand up again but felt something like a fog covering her eyes before she fell back on the bed, her head pounding very loudly. She became feverish as her body shivered uncontrollably. Fortunately, Daisy arrived home in no distant time. When she entered the bedroom, she saw Sarah sprawled on the bed, her lips shivering and rushed to her. Daisy palpated her body and discovered that Sarah's body was as hot as a boiled water. "Oh my God! You have a fever,"Daisy didn't know what to do. She quickly picked up her phone to call Mr. Wilson. She scrolled her phone up until she saw the name, "Iceberg knight" While she was thinking of a befitting name to save his number with the other day, Daisy remembered an account name on facebook and knew that it was a perfect name for a man as
Sarah arrived at the office earlier than most of her colleagues. She walked into the females' canteen and found only a few people there. Of course Petra and her friends were always the first set of people to come to work. This was because they always used the extra hours before the given time to gossip. They were tucked away in the corner eating their breakfast and gisting happily when Sarah walked in. To avoid their side talking, Sarah tried to make herself as inconspicuous as she could and quietly walked to a table farthest from the group. Because Sarah didn't want to be late to the meeting, she didn't take her breakfast at home. Since she still had about 21 minutes before the meeting began, she quickly opened her lunchbox to eat first.Immediately Sarah began to eat, she saw the group looking her way and muttering something among themselves then laughing quietly. She didn't pay any attention to them and continued to eat her food. Sarah secretly wished that Lucy was there so she w
"Mr. Wilson might be smittened with that her face and will not look our ways if she attends the meeting. Girls with such faces as Sarah's are vixens and know how to seduce men too," said Petra. "That's right. What do you suggest we do?" Angela asked. "Didn't she feel uncomfortable when she breathed in the smell of my perfume? What happens if it goes directly into her system?" Petra asked, looking at Sarah's food devishly. Angela followed her line of sight and understood what she meant. Petra hurriedly opened her handbag and Angela picked the perfume from the bag and poured a large amount of it into the tomatoe stew in Sarah's lunchbox then stirred it until it blended with the oil before she smiled victoriously and put the perfume back into the handbag. As they were about to go up, Angela thought of something. "Wait. What if she doesn't eat the food again when she enters? Let's lock her up here," she suggested and Petra agreed to it. They quickly lock
"Didn't you say that Mr. Wilson is here? Where is he then?" Angela asked When she saw the vacant swivel chair at the forefront of the hall. The manager's seat was very close to his while every other person sat around the large conference table. Because it was a general meeting of all the company's employees in this particular mall, there wasn't enough space around the table to accommodate all of them so some of them sat at the back of others but made sure that they were close enough to the table. The hall was equally very large and even had extra space left after they all sat down. "Use your brain, Angela. Will the manager bring his seat out if he isn't here? He's probably in his office and will come in, in no distant time. Maybe the reason that manager told the supervisors that Mr. Wilson is already here was so they could hurry up before he enters," said Petra. Angela nodded in agreement. Petra was actually right. Because the CEO was around, Leonard made sure that
"Where's one of your staff, Sarah?" Richard asked when Leonard sat down. Only Leonard heard what he said. Leonard panicked when Richard asked this question. He had heard the rumor that Mr. Wilson gave Sarah three weeks probation. 'Has he come to sack her in the presence of everyone? No wonder he's here. This will be too humiliating for Sarah,' Leonard reasoned. He racked his brain for an excuse to give to Richard so as to buy more time and use this opportunity to call Mrs. Vera. Maybe, her pleas might soften Mr. Wilson's heart and stop him from embarrassing Sarah publicly. Richard's cold gaze didn't allow Leonard to come up with any reasonable excuse. "Sarah...she...she's in the canteen. One of the girls told me some minutes ago that she's sick. She's eating so she can take her pills before joining us. She said that she will be here soon," Leonard garnished his words in order to attract Mr. Wilson's sympathy and maybe make him reconsider his decision. The truth w
Petra and Angela dragged their feet backwards as they tried to avoid everyone's gaze. Lucy suddenly thought of something. She looked up, her eyes widened by the realization that just hit her. These two were actually so evil! Lucy gave them a hostile look before saying, "I don't think we need to search for too long," she fixed her scorching eyes at Petra and Angela as if she wanted to dry them up with them. Everyone followed her line of sight and channeled their gaze at the duo. Petra's heart missed a bit. She had never been this humiliated all her life. She wished she had wings so she could fly out of this place. Angela couldn't bring herself to lift her head up anymore. She lowered her head and tightened her grips on the hem of her black jean trousers. "A few minutes before the meeting began, I went downstairs to fetch my purse that I forgot in the canteen. These two were the only people that I saw when I got there. They both locked the door to the canteen and whe
Like a lightning in a heavy rainfall, Richard drove into the large compound and parked his Black Ferrari at the foot of the hospital building. Richard had participated in car racing in the past, during his study abroad. Although he only did this for fun then, it came in really handy now. Since he left abroad, he had not participated in car racing again as he was too busy to pursue such inconsequential fun. He had so many things demanding his attention now. Kelly was nowhere near Mr. Wilson when it came to driving. Richard had driven Kelly out of the driver's seat when he came downstairs with Sarah in his arms. Kelly jumped out of the car immediately Richard pulled the car over beside the tall building and rushed to open the door for him. Richard carried Sarah out of the car and ran into the hospital, Sarah's limbs dangling lifelessly. A nurse rushed to him with a gurney and Richard carefully lay Sarah on it. Kelly had called the hospital while they were on their way so the staff we
Around 8pm, Kelly entered the private ward with a stainless canister. Sarah had finished taking the infusion and had been moved into a private ward that looked like a suite. This ward was different from the one that she had stayed in the first time that she came here for a test. It was so large and beautifully decorated that it didn't look like a hospital. The restroom looked very big too.Richard hadn't eaten anything since morning but didn't seem to care. He was still sitting by Sarah's bedside, maintaining the same posture as before. The nurses and doctors kept wondering if Mr. Wilson was a normal human being whenever they entered the ward to check on Sarah and still found him maintaining the same position and posture. "Sir, you need to eat something," Kelly said, pushing the folding table in the private ward towards Richard. "Take the food away," Richard said. He looked so worn out now and his usual sharp eyes appeared to have lost their brightness. "
