After kissing for long minutes they disengaged from the kiss and Nuella caught her breath, her cheeks were red. Oliver saw how surprised she was with the sudden kiss and how her face reddened. They stared at each in silence and did not break eye contact.“I got you a driver and a bodyguard to follow you anywhere you go from today onwards” Oliver broke the silence.“A new driver?”“Yes a new driver, you can no longer leave the house alone and come back alone. I have to be sure you are in safe hands at all times'' he saidNuella nodded “After you are done, I want you to head to the family residence in the evening”“To the family residence? Is there a reason why, is grandma okay” Nuella asked in worry, Oliver will not just want her to go to the family residence just like that.“Elena will be arriving this afternoon and grandma is holding a small welcoming party for her this evening and she wants you to be there”“Are you going to be there?”“You want me to be there?” He asked her as he
“This project is going to fail” Nuella said as she used red ink to write a big “FAIL” on the front page of the project file then slammed it on the table. Everyone present looked at her in surprise.“That project has already being approved by me, what makes you think it’s going to fail?” Raymond asked, he could not understand the action of his daughter. Her grandfather had brought her here for the project signing since he has made it mandatory that her signature must be in every domestic and foreign project that the Armstrong empire is to embark on.She was only supposed to read the project and add her signature to it for approval only for her to do this?“This project took months to prepare” Raymond added when he was completely ignored by her.Celine who stood far away felt her anger growing by her action. Did she know how long it took their father to prepare this project? She gritted her teeth.The other CEO’s that were present were surprised by her action, why would a daughter reject
“Surprise!!” The moment she stepped into the house she was welcomed warmly.“Oh mine” she smiled when she saw everyone was present, her high school friends including a few other family friends were present.“Welcome back my granddaughter” Grandma May said“Grandma” Elena did not waste time to immediately hug her grandma “I have missed you”“Grandma I have missed you too” she said emotionally Nuella stood close by as she smiled at them bothElena hugged her friends one after the other before hugging some of the faces she remembered until she got close to Alex.“ Alex”“Elena”They both hugged Elena also hugged Alison and when she got close to Nuella she stood and looked at the beautiful lady.“Welcome home Elena” Nuella smiled at herEveryone stood watching including grandma May who wanted to see if Elena would like her sister in law just as they all do.After staring at her for what seemed like five minutes, Elena smiled and hugged her which took Nuella by surprise, she did not thi
For the past month, a lot has changed between them. Although Oliver has never for once told her he loved her or liked her but each passing day he showed her how much she meant to him. The past two months was what she had wished for. First, Oliver was falling for her, second she was now the vice president of the Armstrong empire, third, she was going to be a mother with this tiny angel growing in her everyday. Fourth, she had a good relationship with his grandmother and his sister.But her happiness will not be complete until she seeks justice for the death of her sisters. “I found the location of the assassin that shot then that day”“What is the location”“In a small village in the west”“I don’t want you to get involved again, leave it to me, I will make sure to handle the situation and soon you will be able to get justice for the death of your sisters. All you have to do is take care of yourself and our baby.“I want to be there the day you torture the truth out of him” “Do you
Nuella’s heart was not at ease after Celine had left, she felt there was a reason Celine had come here. Every single day she feels so angry for allowing these murderers to roam around freely. She had already told Oliver everything and even sent all the evidence including the location of the assassin. Soon Celine and her mother would not rove around freely and whatever plan they have will not succeed. Just this morning Oliver had increased the security in the estate and also the number of guards protecting her.After she was done with work in the company she headed out for her lunch date with Elena. She has heard a good relationship with Oliver’s sister that they were now very close.“Sister in law” Elena walked towards her and gave her a hug.Nuella smiled and hugged her back “Have you being waiting for long”“Yes I have, you kept me here for two hours”Nuella gasped “Oh mine, really?”Elena smiled “No I was joking”Nuella sighed in relief Elena wrapped her hands around hers “Come
Nuella watched as the car drove with full speed towards the ice cream stand.“Elena!! No!!” She screamed and cried when the car hit Elena and sent her flying to the ground. Nuella ran towards Elena who was lying lifeless on the ground.“Elena!!”She held Elena body and cried “Please stay with me Elena please, abeg you” Nuella held her close to her chest Some of the bodyguards had chased after the vehicle that ran away after hitting Elena while Pedro and Andrew immediately called the ambulance.Nuella stared at her blood on the ground, Elena’s blood had stained her hands and clothes.“Elena please don’t close your eyes, stay with me please I beg you” Nuella cried, seeing Elena like this suddenly remembered her of when her sisters were shot and their bodies laid lifeless on the ground, she would have being shot as well if not that people around had surrounded them and the assassin saw no chance to shot her.“Elena please stay with me” Tears rolled down her eyes as her forehead was fill
Grandma May stood outside the intensive care unit watching over Elena who was battling with her life. There is a transparent glass that enables her to see Elena who was laying on the bed in the intensive care unit with a machine connected to her.Grandma May placed her hand on the glass mirror as tears rolled down her eyes “Elena” she called her name and wiped her tears.Matilda looked at the young miss who is struggling for her life “Please get well soon young miss” she murmured. Who would have thought that Miss Elena would be in this situation just two months after she returned to the country.Standing a little distance away was Mr Armstrong, after visiting his granddaughter who is yet to wake up from the trauma. He was about to leave the hospital when he was reminded about Oliver’s sister who was run over by the car instead of his granddaughter. When he found out that his granddaughter was the target instead of this young lady battling with her life in the intensive care unit, he h
In the outskirt of the city, in an old abandoned warehouse, there are five underground levels in the warehouse. To the outside world this is just an abandoned warehouse but unknown to them there is a five level underground base below. This is one of the numerous places Oliver brings his offenders and tortures them to their death.In a dark room on the fourth underground level, Oliver stood in the middle of the room and in front of him was a long table with different kinds of tools and weapons, like axes, different shapes of knives, different sizes of guns and other useful tools for torture.Oliver carefully choosed his next tool, he decides to go for a knife that is usually used in butchering. After accessing his chosen tool, his cold gaze went to the person whose hand is tied on the roof with a rope around his neck and his foot standing on a stool.The young man winced in pain, he is being tortured continuously and is still being tortured. He stared at the man in front of him in ho
5 Years LaterNuella was still in bed sleeping when she felt someone get into the bed and rolled towards her. The person kissed her on the cheek with his tiny lips and played with her hair with his tiny hands.Nuella smiled because she already knew who it was. She opened her eyes and was greeted with his cute little face.“Wakey Wakey mummy” he said with his tiny voice Nuella wrapped her hand around him and gave him kisses all over his face “My cute little prince”Logan giggled as his mummy tickled him“You came to wake mummy?”Logan nodded “Daddy asked me to come wake you, he said that the others will soon arrive” he said with his tiny voice that was like music to Nuella’s ears.Nuell laughed inwardly, not Oliver sending his son to come wake her after he had kept her awake all night.Just a year after their official wedding, Logan came as a blessing to them. She did not think she was going to get pregnant again but the heavens blessed her and Oliver with this cuteness in front of he
One thing she was glad about is that Cassandra’s blood wasn’t in her hands, even though that was what she had wanted from the beginning.Nuella returned from her thoughts and smiled at herself again in the mirror.“What were you thinking about, you spaced out for a long time?” Jena asked“Everything I have been through to get to this moment” she saidJena smiled “I can imagine, I’m glad you overcame everything and made it to this precious day of yours”Nuella nodded with a smileAlicia came into the large closet where the two friends were laughing happily “Wow mummy you look so beautiful!!” Alicia, who was already dressed, walked round her mother to have a good look at her.Nuella was in awe when she saw her beautiful her princess was in that dress of hers, she had this little white princess ball gown on her.“And you look even more beautiful princess?” “Thank you mummy but you are more beautiful, I spoke to daddy a few minutes ago and he said I should be a good daughter and come ass
4 Months LaterNuella smiled and giggled in her sleep, she was having the most beautiful dream she has ever had in her life. After having a lot of life challenges, for the first time after years she could have such a beautiful sleep while having such a dream. She had slept with so much excitement and joy in her heart that it felt like her heart was going to boost as a result of so much excitement.She was busy enjoying living in her dreams while rolling like a child in the bed when her beautiful sleep was suddenly interrupted.“Wakey Wakey, it's time to get up Nuella. Although I can see that you are living in dreamland in your sleep but you have to get up now because today is your big day” Jena said and could not help but laugh when she saw Nuella frown in her sleep.Nuella slowly opened her eyes and rolled her eyes at Jena “Can't you just let me be”“I wish I can but if you don't get up now, you will be late for your wedding”Nuella smiled when she remembered that it was her wedding
Oliver laid on one side of the bed while staring at the beauty in front of him. She was sleeping so peacefully and looked so beautiful that he could not get his eyes off her. I loved this woman so much with every being in him, he never thought he could love someone this much, he never thought he would one day love Nuella this much.He remembered the first time he met her, she had worked into his study room quietly and the only way he noticed someone’s presence was when he perceived her scent. He was busy going through some documents and did not even give her a glance even after noticing her presence.He had waited for her to say something, but he was only greeted by her with silence. That made him furrow his brow because others who came in before her all did one or two stupid things just to get his attention and make him look at them.He had asked himself “Didn’t she come here voluntarily to be his wife, then why was she acting so hard to get?” His own question made him pissed because
Soon they got to the airport and after checking in, they boarded the private jet. “Mommy, daddy” Alicia rushed to hug her parents when she saw them.Nuella picked her up even if she was starting to get heavy. She gave her a kiss on the cheek and on the forehead. “What is you and daddy hidden from me?” She asked her daughter but the 5 years old Alicia laughed.“So you both are keeping secrets now” Nuella said jokingly“It’s a surprise for you mummy, you are going to love it, trust me”“It’s our little secret, father and daughter secret” Oliver said.Nuella rolled her eyes but was still happy, seeing how excited her daughter was made her know that it will certainly be something she will love and would not expect.Soon they settle down in private jet and jetted to the location that Nuella is not aware of yet.About 30 minutes into the flight, Nuella laid in Oliver's body and slept off.Oliver stared at his beautiful wife who was sleeping and then at his daughter. This made him smile. T

She was restricted from going anywhere else.She had a company to run but could only stay home to do it. She has been a full house wife for the past 15 days. One thing she enjoyed about this punishment that she was given was that she could spend a lot of time with Alicia who was so happy that her mommy was home with her.She did dancing, singing, drawing, swimming and other fun stuff with her daughter in these 15 days. She also spent time talking to Jenna on phone and video calling to see her god son since they could not return back yet.Ol
Nuella was shocked, she looked at the body that blocked hers and was shocked to see that it was Claudia, Cassandra’s mother.Cassandra screams “Nooooo!!! Nooo!!!! Mother!!!” She dropped the gun and immediately rushed towards her mother whose body was held by Nuella.She knelt down and shook her mother’s body for her to wake up “Mother place wake up!!”Oliver dragged Nuella up to allow Cassandra to hold her mother instead. Nuella who has been in a dice, stared at Oliver.“Oliver, how….?” She was surprised as to how he was here.Romulo and the others who had seen what had happened, immediately left the base that was not far from where they were and rushed there immediately.“Why would you plan all this without my knowledge?”“I’m sorry, knowing you, you would have done things more rashly” Nuella said Oliver sighed “All the anger he had for her immediately disappeared now that he was holding her in his arms.Oliver hugged her and sighed in relief, he was glad she was not hurt. After a
Seeing that David was about to be strangled to death by him, Oliver freed him. David gasped for air, and became pissed, he immediately stood with all his strength and gave Oliver a punch.Oliver, who was not expecting it, staggered back but regained his composure. Before he could retaliate, David gave him a second punch that landed him on the ground.He was shocked, he was always the one punching but this time David had retaliated which he did not expect.“I always do everything for you and tolerate your nonsense but where I draw the line is where you try to strangle me to death. “From today onwards we are not friends, I do not see any reason why I should abandon my own business to always be with you and help you.David was panting in anger “As much as I want to help Nuella in this situation I will be leaving” David got in his car and drove off.Oliver, who already got up from the floor, stood and watched as he drove off. All his men stood a few distance away and could not do anythi
“That’s my granddaughter” Romulo was so happy like he was watching a wrestling match.Matthew and Israel were relieved that Nuella was not the one that was knocked down instead.“Now is time to move to the next stage” Romulo grinned.Back to the ladiesNuella benth down and stared at the unconscious Cassandra on the ground. This was just the beginning.She had hit Cassandra so much that she looked a little bit unrecognizable.Soon, some of her grandfather's men rushed to where she was after they had finished fighting off the men that came with Cassandra.“Ma’am are you oka……” one of the men was about to ask but stopped what he was going to say when he saw that the person on the ground was Cassandra and that the madam was fine with no single crash in her body. They sighed in relief.“What do you want us to do with her ma’am?”“Carry her and bring her along” Nuella said Nuella started walking to the next location and the men followed along while carrying Cassandra.The men Cassandra ha
