He turned her to face him and saw tears in her eyes, he cleaned her tears and kissed her forehead.“Why are you stopping me?”“Because you are not allowed to go in there”“Why I’m are not allowed, you promised to bring me to them”“Yes which is why you are here, you are only allowed to view them from the monitor and watch them being tortured”“No, I want to go inside and torture them as well, they killed my sisters and it is only right that I vent my anger and pain” tears rolled down her eyes. Oliver more than anyone else should know how she is feeling.“No” Oliver stood his ground“Please” tears rolled down her eyes one after the other but that did not make him change his mind.“I will not let your hands to be stained with blood” he said as he kissed both of her hands “They should remain pour, there is no way in this world I will let you stain your hands. You are not like them and you should not be like us. You grandfather will tortured them on behave of you and him, all I will be al
“AFTER ALL THE EVIDENCE SHOWN, I SENTENCE YOU BOTH, BRENDA ARMSTRONG AND CELINE ARMSTRONG TO LIFE IN PRISONMENT FOR MULTIPLE CHARGES INCLUDING MANSLAUGHTER “ The Judge hit his stamp“COURT RISE!!” Everyone rose from their seat before the jugde leftNuella sighed in relief, finally she was able to put them behind bars and not only that, she was able to let the whole world know of what they did. She casted her gaze towards Brenda and Celine who were being dragged out of the court through the back door and suddenly she had a bad feeling when she saw a smirk on Brenda's face.“What’s wrong?” Oliver, who was standing close to her, asked when he saw the worried look on her face.Nuella looked at him with a smile on her face “Nothing” I’m relieve that everything went well now my sisters and my mother can rest in peace”Oliver gazed at her for a while before nodding, he felt there was something else but did not want to push further.Present in the courtroom was also Raymond who sat at the ba
They were both shocked to see the people who came to see them. Celine looked at Oliver who had an unreadable look on his face. Even after the situation she presently is in, her heart still beats for this man.Nuella looked at their appearance and it looked so different from what they looked before, they were so unrecognizable. In the middle of the room was a glass separating them. Nuella stood up and walked to the chair close to the glass. She sat down and picked the telephone.Oliver sat on the couch behind watching all that was going on.Celine and Brenda picked up their telephone as well.“How does it feel to be in here?” She asked both of them but there was no response. “Doesn’t feel good right?You both will be here for the rest of your lives for all the crimes you have committed against me and my family”“Brenda” Nuella called Brenda who looked at her “You will regret ever stepping into my family’s life and destroying it. I will make sure you remain here” Nuella said with her wh
3 YEARS LATERThere were a number of hundred directors in the large meeting room and seated in the head chair was the almighty Oliver Haywood, the most strict and no nonsense boss in the whole of H city. No one made a single sound as they all fixed their gaze to the screen in front. The only voice that could be heard was that of the person giving a presentation. Even as the person is given a presentation, he tries not to be too loud but audible enough for others to hear.This is because before the meeting had started the cold hearted boss had warned everyone not to disturb the little miss Haywood that was sleeping on his shoulder.Who brings a three year old to a crucial meeting like this?Oliver Haywood doesWho fires and prevents employees from getting a job elsewhere when they make a tiny mistake of waking his precious daughter?Oliver Haywood doesThe director wiped the sweat in his forehead and sighed in silence before proceeding with the presentation. Even with the air condition
Nuella looked outside the window as the plane landed slowly to the ground. She smiled and felt so happy to be back home, due to work she has been away for three weeks and it was so hard since she had to leave her child and her angry husband who was pissed that she had traveled so far and long. She was sure that now that she is back he will not let her travel so far again because of business.Nuella felt like laughing when she remembered how his face was when they were doing a video call yesterday. She had jokingly told him she would not be able to return today and he became angry that she had to immediately rephrase her statement. Still he was pissed and had to show her Cia who was sleeping on their bed, according to him she had refused to sleep in her room because she didn’t want home to be lonely, indirectly telling her that he was lonely.That made her giggle She did not wish to be away from them, she has been really busy since she took over as the president of Armstrong group, sh
The teacher held little Cia’s hand who jumped as they walked towards the car park where parents are waiting in their cars to pick up their kids from school. Unlike other kids who at least one of their parent comes to pick them up, Cia is always picked up from school by her nanny and two bodyguards, this is due to the busy schedule of her parents and the whole school knows who are parents are and why they are not able to pick her from school themselves.Her school teacher, Mrs Margaret who is middle aged walked her to the familiar car that always comes to pick her up from school.The car door open and Cia and her teacher expected to see the nanny step out of the car but to her greatest surprise her mother stepped out of the car instead.Cia’s eyes widened in surprise and she let go of her teachers hand and ran towards her mother.Nuella benth down and widened her hands to hug her child.“Mommy!!”Nuella hugged her tight and kissed her check “Happy to see mommy?”Cia nodded and jumped i
Elena spent a year and 6 months in coma and went through therapy to recover fully, no after an extra year and months her life has been back to normal as she is no longerthat girl that loves to overspend and was irresponsible. After the accident and being in coma for that long she has completely changed that now she now holds a position in the family company and has been handed her inheritance by Oliver who noticed how much she has changed.Elena stepped into the house and was greeted by Matilda.“Welcome young miss Elena” Matilda bowed her head to show respect.“Thank you Matilda, do we have visitors? she asked since there were noises coming from the dining area.“Yes, it’s your sister in law and niece that came to visit”“Sister in law is back?”Matilda nodded Elena headed to the dining area with a smile on her face.She got to the dining and saw the three on the table having a late lunch. Little Cia was busy stuffing her mouth with chicken.Elena smiled at her cuteness, she loves c
It's 10 pm and Oliver is not yet back, Nuella tried his number twice but he did not pick. That was new because Oliver would pick her call at the first ring, she remembered him saying he will hang out with Alex and David so she decided to give David a call and after the first ring David picked.“Nuella”“Hey David, is Oliver with you, he is not picking”David who was standing outside the office of Alison looked towards Oliver, how is he to tell Nuella that Oliver fought Alex? that they had to take Alex to the hospital because of it.“He is fine and will be ho………” He was not able to finish his statement when Alison collected the phone from his ear.“Alison did not say anything to her…….”Alison gave him a cold look before walking away to go speak to Nuella.“Hello, hello David are you there? '' she was starting to feel something was wrong.“Hey Nuella, it’s me Alison”“Alison did something happen”“Yes, something happened” Alison sounded piseed Nuella stood up from the couch “What’s
15 Days LaterIn the past 15 days a lot has happenedFirst, Jenna has given birth to a beautiful baby boy Secondly, Cassandra was already in prisonThirdly, Everyone who was a victim of Cassandra has press chargesFourthly, Mariana has woken up from her coma but is still in the hospital recovering.Oliver has put some restrictions on Nuella, for the past 15 days the only place Nuella was permitted to go was the hospital to see Mariana, his mother. 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
Cassandra headed to the location after meeting with her men. She did not know what Nuella had planned so she had to bring back up, a good number of her men were following her to that place.Unknown to her, Claudia had hidden herself in one of the vans.At the location, Nuella had already prepared herself, she had prepared a lot for Cassandra, the whole world was going to witness a part of what was going to happen today. Cassandra was not going to escape all this. About an hour later, Cassandra and her men arrived at the place.Their cars were packed in the side of the express and through the directions she was given they were supposed to enter the woods.Why will Nuella bring her to the middle of nowhere, is her plan to kill her and feed her to the wild animals?Cassandra could not tell what her plan was but she was glad she was prepared. It is either she kills Nuella or Nuella kills her, both of them can not live here alive.A call came and it was Nuella “Hello Nuella” she said onc
“H…how?” Nuella smiled “You thought I was inside?”Cassandra's eyes widened “How did you know?” she clenched her fist.“Don't worry I will tell you when you get here. It will take you few hours to get here and while you are coming please come with you add-ons or lifejackets cause I promise you that I will not miss like you did, I will make sure you die by my hands?”“And if I don't”Nuella smiled “You won't dare, I have a lot on you already Cassandra. You have to face me whether you like it or not, it is either you die or I die Cassandra”“You are right, it’s either you die or die” Cassandra said“I will send you the location, you already had a plan on how to get rid of me before the car accident which didn't work so now that it didn't work I want you to bring on your A game cause you won't imagine what I have waiting for you” Nuella hang up the call and sighed in relief.Cassandra can choose not to be here but she is smart enough. Cassandra was still shocked, it is beginning to see
Hours Earlier Cassandra stayed in a car close by waiting for the car Nuella was inside to catch in flames. She had sent her people to plant a mini device that would lead to the car crashing and going in flames. This will enable Nuella to die or have severe injuries.Right in front of her eyes the car from miles away driving at full speed caught in flames.In the early hours of the morning she had used a burner phone to call Nuella which she picked.“I think we should finally come face to face, don't you agree?” she had said to Nuella.Nuella smiled because she has been expecting this call “I agree, it's about time we settle our scores. You do understand that it is either I die or you die in this battle”“Yes I do, and I can't wait to come out victorious”This conversation took place at around 5am.When the call ended, Nuella informed Matthew and Israel about the call. Mathew and Israel left their hideout to the place where Nuella was going to meet Cassandra.Nuella informed her grand
Just as she had suspected, Oliver had come to the nightclub late hours of the night. She was in her vvip section close to his and waited patiently. Thinking he will be here alone, surprisingly Alex and David also came along after ten minutes.There was no way for her to listen to their conversation since the private rooms were sound proof. In order for her to know what they were saying she paid the server that served drinks for them to listen to their conversation.After 10 minutes of waiting the female server returned and told her all they spoke about.“So they are all still in support of Nuella? She scoffed Cassandra was here for two hours until Alex left and now it was just David who she is sure must be convincing him to go back home.She is sure Oliver will refuse and at that time David will leave. Oliver does not need protection since he had his bodyguards in every single inch of the club. True as she said David left after failing to convince him, so now came her opportunity.S
The person that called Nuella next was Elena. Elena asked her what was going on and what she plans on doing to clear her name and that if Oliver sees this he will be really angry most especially since what happened between his father and mother is yet forgotten.Nuella felt at ease that Elena did not outrightly accuse her of doing what the media said she did.“Has grandma seen it?”“No, I have warned you that no one will show her the news today. Seeing such a thing will make her distressed and will remind her of what happened between her son and Mariana. She had planned on visiting Mariana at the hospital today but I had to convince her to postpone it since reporters will be outside the hospital premises.Nuella felt at ease knowing that Grandma May hasn't seen the news yet “Thank you Mariana for making sure she doesn’t see it and also for trusting in me”“Have you spoken to Oliver yet?”“Yes and he is really angry”“Oliver should know that you won't do such a thing.
