TIME JUMP TWO WEEKSAnette's wedding was in two days and Leslie had not found any opportunity to carry out her plan she had taken time to plan. She had diclofenac that would cause her daughter to bleed out the baby. She was going to do all within her power to ensure that the wedding did not hold, there was no way her daughter would marry that man. Leslie stood at Anette's door and stared intently at the drugs in her hand. "This is all for you my dear daughter" she murmured looking down before raising her head with a sinister smile lining her face. She knocked and pushed the door open, Anette was sitting on the bed with a happy smile across her phone as her eyes darted from one end of the phone to the other. "Anette?" Leslie said trying to catch her daughter's attention."Oh Mom, I did not hear you come in," Anette said pressing the power button of her phone to shut it off before she placed it on the bed and shifted in her seat. She rubbed her belly lightly, in a few days she would s
Hello Everyone I am not a medical practitioner so I don't know the way these things work. I have only written from my research and experience. Thank you for reading (Inserts Heart emoji) Andrew was pacing up and down outside the emergency room, the doctors had told him to excuse them while they tried to save his sister. His mom was nowhere to be seen as she did not come with them to the hospital. His mind roamed back to what she said when he asked her to call an ambulance. She refused with a violent head shake and stood back watching her daughter groan in pain while she bled away. When the ambulance arrived she had refused to get in and he could not help but suspect that she had something to do with what was happening to Anette. He wanted to dig into it but he had to make sure his sister was okay first. It had been well over an hour and yet he had not heard anything from the doctors. He was hoping she and the baby were fine. "Where is she?" Richard asked storming in. Andrew ha
"Why are you apologizing?" Richard asked as he approached her as she sobbed in the bed. She was shaky so uncontrollably. Richard reached out to her and wrapped his arms around her her body now lost in his. "I did this, how was I so careless?" she said in between sobs. The baby was one of the most important things to her at the moment and she could not believe she had somehow managed to allow it to slip out her hand. "You did not do anything, I am sure we will get to the bottom of this soon" he said trying to console her. He was distraught but he was sure it could be nothing compared to how she felt at that time. He turned back to see that Andrew had left the room. "Hello Dad" Andrew mumbled over the phone. After seeing his mom's reaction he knew the only thing he could do was to call his Dad. "Hey bud, what brings you to call me" "It's about Anette, she is in the hospital after she lost her baby and I think mom has something to do with it" "To do with what?" Brian asked feeli
"Can you explain everything you witnessed?" Andrew raised his head as he dragged his hands along his trousers. He wanted to speak with his mom first but Richard was not having any excuses. The cops were going to interrogate him first before they went on to do the same for both Anette and Leslie. "Please in detail" the cop added. Andrew angled his neck back a bit to see his father standing there. He motioned to encourage him to talk. Andrew took a large gulp before nodding. "So I got back home from work and I noticed that something was being cooked but as soon as I entered the kitchen I realised that it was already done. It was strange to me because no one had cooked anything in that house in the past three weeks?" "And why is that?" the cop asked cutting him off from saying anything further. The man wanted to get a clear picture of the situation. "That's a private family matter that is irrelevant to the case" Andrew jumped to defend his family, he would not be the one to air his f
Leslie paced around her room, why did her son have to come right on time? If he had not come then her plan would have been complete. She wondered what the situation was at the hospital. She bit off her fingers as she thought about if it would be a good idea to call them to check on her. She took a deep breath as she thought of the expression on her children's faces when she refused to help. "Andrew must be on to something" she whispered to herself as she looked at herself in the mirror. If she was being honest with herself she was a shell of what her life had always been. She could barely recognize the person in the mirror. "I am only like this because of Jessica" she muttered as she pounded her fist into her palm. She thought of the possibility of Andrew showing up with the police. "I have to leave this place" she let out with a sinister laugh. " I can't afford them to catch me" she added before taking down a hand luggage. She pushed her way to the closet and she began to
Leslie was going to deny till the end. There was no evidence of her giving the drug to her daughter and if she denied it long enough she was sure to get out of the situation quickly. Although she wished she was not in it in the first place."So are you saying you made the meal?" "Of course, we have had a strained relationship for such a long time that I thought bonding over the pancakes would be a good time for us" Leslie answered. Her feet were sweating so bad but she could not show them her nervousness or else they would get on to and she would be doomed. "And why was your relationship strained?" "Excuse me officer you have been asking these same questions over and over again and I have answered you every single time. I don't think I need to answer you again" she said slapping the table.Someone came in and whispered something to the cop, he nodded and then turned back to face her. "I am sure since you are giving the police your full cooperation you would also not mind allowing
"What do you possibly mean by that?" Jessica asked. She has been arguing in front of the courthouse over the phone for the last ten minutes. Today was her wedding day. She and her high school sweetheart Burke were supposed to meet up here by ten thirty am to have their wedding. "Burke it is ten forty-five am, where are you?" she asked her voice shaky. "Jessica I won't be coming today," Burke said. "What do you mean by that? We are to get married today" she said again. This time she felt something got trickling down her eyes. She sniffled to drive away the tears so her makeup doesn't get ruined. "Jessica I don't think I love you enough to want to get married to you and live together in the same house," he said. She felt her heart sank. They had been planning the wedding together ever since he popped the question. He knew of her dream to get married and live in a house that had a yard for the kids to play in. He had no house with a yard but they planned to get one. "I won't force
"I thought you said she would be here on time?" Xavier shouted over the phone to his assistant Brian. The doctors had told him that his grandfather had barely two weeks left. Xavier had lied to his grandfather that he had a girlfriend. His grandfather had said that the girlfriend be wedded and presented to him before he dies so he transfer the company out of a management specialist to his name. His grandfather knew what a responsible man Xavier was but he feared that if he left the world Xavier would be all alone and later the company will leave the Delgado household. Dawson (Xavier's grandfather) decides that instead of Xavier giving up the company in the long run, he would be the one to leave the company in the hands of those who can manage. It would make him roll on his grave if Xavier gives up on his hard work and sweat. He rather does it for himself. Xavier knew he owed it to his grandfather. When his parents died in a ghastly motor accident that claimed their life, he had b
