Thelma, Mrs. Elena Brown informed me that her boss had arrived and instructed me to proceed to the fourth floor to see Mavin. I was nervous to see him as I had been waiting since morning. I know I should have left the company, but I still wanted to speak to him. I intended to tell him face-to-face that we couldn't date and that we should forget about the possibility of being together. I was really nervous when he started asking me questions about why I returned to work at his company. I felt like I was being interviewed all over again. Feeling scared, I tried to leave when he stood up from his seat. He caught me before I could reach the door and turned me around to face him. "Why are you running away when I haven't finished my questions?" Mavin asked, his white eyes adding to my fear. I mentioned that my father had warned me to keep my distance from him. Mavin then asked if I had ever asked my father why he said that. "No, he just warned me to stay away from you," I replied, no
Steven. Father finally dismissed his guests as they left our living room, and he finally walked up to meet me as I stood beside the dining table, checking the business news gossip magazine that I had gathered from the center table. "Steven, what happened?" Father asked me, as I squinted my eyes and read through the news written on the front pages of the gossip magazine cover. "Steven..." "Father, you know that Thelma told us lies last night," I said calmly, not wanting my father to faint. I still needed some personal explanation from him and to know why he hated LX Groups so much, to the extent that the hatred had to be transferred to MW Group as well. "About what, Steven? And why did you chase your younger sister into the house like that?" Father continued to ask me as he walked past me and sat down in the first dining seat. "Do you know that Thelma actually met with Mavin yesterday in his office, and the worst report that I am seeing trending online now is that she had an affai
Thelma's Point of View: I knew that my father and Steven would find out the truth about what had happened. I was nervous and couldn't meet their gazes. Father was angry, and he had every right to be. I didn't say anything, and Father left while Steven waited. "Thelma, what happened? You need to calm down and explain to me," Steven spoke in an alluring voice. "There's nothing to explain. Mavin is the man I met with last weekend," I said tearfully, and Steven gasped, "What?" "Could you repeat that?" Steven urged me to speak. "You mean you actually met with Mavin White the previous week? Thelma! How could you?" Steven paced about, and I finally looked up at him. "I didn't know he was Mavin White," I replied between sobs. Steven turned to look back at me, glared at me, and asked, "Then how do you explain all these new marks on your neck?" "I don't know. We just happened to do it again. I think Mavin likes me, but he looks angry about something," I said. "Shut up, Thelma! You're
Thelma. "What?" I looked at Steven in disbelief as he sat at the dining seat and stated that I had been grounded. "But my mom said that I need to go to the hospital to get Mavin's seed off me," I told Steven, and he only stared at me in silence at first, while Lady Bonnie stepped out from the kitchen and served his tea. "Thelma, I still find it hard to believe that you truly had anything to do with Mavin. Are you sure that you slept with him?" Steven asked me in utmost disbelief, and I shrugged and sat across from him at the dining table. "Mavin is handsome, and he somehow looks like you," I said as I smiled to myself at the thought of Mavin White. But as I looked at Steven's face, he hummed in silence and replied, "You cannot go out today. That's it. Later, I will visit the hospital and let Doctor Amari know about it, in case she has anything to give you to flush out Mavin's seed from your system. But, please, don't speak about Mavin to me again as we don't associate with him." "
Thelma POV: "Mom! I cannot marry Felix, and that's final! I thought you and Dad said that I'm only meeting with Felix this Saturday. After this meeting on Saturday, I will get to know whether I will marry him or not." "Who told you that lie, Thelma? You are meeting with Felix to marry him. Later, we will fix your wedding date. It's not compulsory for you to wait until the wedding date to become a couple. Get ready for your engagement party with Felix on Saturday. Your father rescheduled the meeting as an engagement ceremony. I need to go back to my room now to rest. See you later, Thelma," Mom said, then she walked out of my room and slammed the door behind her. I sighed and fell back onto my bed, crying. I didn't want to marry Felix, but what could I do? I sat up on my bed, picked up my phone, and quickly searched for Felix Ruben's photos. I gasped as I saw that he is the same man as Richard Ruben. "Is he twins?" I asked in shock, realizing that I may end up marrying the man wh
Thelma's Point of View: I stayed outside until evening, and Steven finally arrived home from work. He didn't say anything to me. I went back into the living room shortly after Steven walked inside. Dad had already taken his bath, changed into his suit, and sat on the living room couch. He called me over, and I assumed Mom had spoken to him about Felix Ruben being CEO Richard Ruben. "Thelma," Father called out. "Yes, Dad," I answered, pausing in the living room. "Is it true what you told your mother about Felix being CEO Richard Ruben?" Father asked. "Yes, Dad." "Well, if that's the case, I cannot cancel the wedding engagement as Felix already agreed to come and visit us here the day after tomorrow." "But Dad, what if he finds out the truth about me? Won't he go online to gain more recognition by revealing it?" I asked. Father remained silent. After a while, he said, "You caused all this drama, Thelma. But don't worry. Donald is my friend, and if Felix is indeed CEO Richard, h
Thelma's POV: "So, what do you want me to do for you?" Doctor Amari asked again, and my mother quickly explained to her. "Hmm, Madam, you know that it's not safe to consider operating a fully grown adult who is conscious without the patient's permission. I cannot start the treatment on her unless she agrees to it," Doctor Amari said, her smile not leaving her beautiful brown face. "Why do you need her permission first, when you know she doesn't want to clean herself? She seems to like the man, but her father already has another husband for her. Please, doctor, just give me the treatment, and I will administer it to her at home," Mother said. Doctor Amari replied, "Okay, the risk is on you as you will have to sign and consent to it. Although there are not many dangers in using the treatment, you still have to agree before I can give it to you." Mother wasted no time agreeing to receive the treatment on my behalf, and she signed while my frown deepened. I couldn't believe that Mothe
Thelma's POV: I turned away, already knowing that Felix was Richard Ruben, and his father asked him, "Do you know her, Felix?". Felix scanned the faces in the living room and replied, "Yes, father. This woman, she's the same lady who spent up to four hours with Mavin in his office, engaging in intimate activities. Why didn't you ask her family for her photos first, Dad, and allow me to see the face of the lady you want me to marry?". "Calm down, Felix. I don't understand what you mean by seeing her in Mavin's office. Who is Mavin and what's going on?" Mr. Donald asked his son, and Felix only glared at me with irritation as he refused to sit down and said, "I'm out of here, Father. I cannot marry this woman, and that's final." "Shut up, Felix, and don't you dare walk out on me. Who is acting more disgracefully here, you or her? How dare you speak in such an insolent manner in front of Chief Conrad and his wife?" Mr. Donald questioned angrily. Felix stopped, but he didn't look at m
[Thelma's POV:]I stared back at the huge white door in front of me, afraid of the masculine figure that wanted to step out.Knowing that Sir Adam had told me to go into the room, I was scared and stood nervously in my long red gown.I could hear the scattering of something inside the room, and I was seriously afraid, feeling the need to pee in my pants.Before I knew it, I was taking some steps backward, as I could hear the sound of the imposing footsteps approaching the door. As I jumped back to scramble out of the room, just then, the door unlocked.A tall man in a white top and black shorts walked out. He stared at me in shock as his silver eyes met my blue orbs."Who the hell are you?" He asked, taken aback by my presence.I was struck in awe by the man's handsomeness. He was a dark-skinned man, very handsome, with silver eyes and a formidable figure.I struggled to say who I am as I stared at him in disbelief. The man held his head like he was in pain and staggered to meet me."
Mavin.Three months had past since I lastly went to Conrad Sabastain mansion. Steven didn't want to speak with me, nor to allow me into their company as their bodyguards were very mean.I went to take my bath in my bathroom as it was a bright Monday morning and I was in my bedroom on the second floor of my mansion.I had a lot of works to do in office, so I went to bath as the time was still after 7am, and the day was September 15 on the calendar.I felt a bit familiar with the date, knowing that the day seem special but I couldn't pinpoint what exactly it was as my rather was rather preoccupied with going to my company.The year was almost coming to an end again, and I had to prepare for the end of the year awards.Although I hadn't seen any new company in city B that could compete with mine so I was not even bothered.I stepped out from my bathroom as I was through with my bath. I dried my short black jet hair and also applied my body cream before I wore my black suit and set to lea
Thelma.I heard my father yelling at someone at the garage, and I rushed out to my room balcony to find out who was that?.I saw Mavin leaving, just before I could call him back. He looked so handsome In his black suit and finally got into his car and left."Mavin! Ah!" I felt my water broke, and my babies were coming out."Ah! My tummy!" I winced out again, and my older brother immediately rushed upstairs to my room, Like he heard my voice."Thelma, are you alright?" Steven asked me, as he looked worried, rushing up to meet me, and at the same time angry."My babies, They are coming out Steven" I told Steven, and he assisted me, while we went downstairs to his carI was taken to the hospital, crying as I really wanted to know what happened earlier.Why did my father sent Mavin White away?"Thelma you have to push your babies out now," My mother said to me, and I was crying seriously."No, Mom, I want to see Mavin, why did father send him away?" I inquired from my mother."Come on, The
Thelma.I couldn't believe what Mavin told me,that he really missed me, and wanted me back in his life."Hmm, " I was unable to speak as I contemplated to tell Mavin that I am pregnant with him."But you know that my.father won't accept to our affair. What are we going to do now?" I asked, as I was calm now speaking to Mavin on the phone call."Not to worry. I will come to see your family soon," Mavin assured me, and I asked him, "Will you be able to come here? I mean, do you know my family house address?""Of course, I will come to see you soon. Not to worry," Mavin assured me, and I sighed. "Okay, good night then," I said."Yes, You too," Mavin replied and the phone call with him finally ended.I kept looking at my phone screen for a while, even after my phone call with Mavin White ended.I don't know if to believe him or not . On what he said about coming to see my family. But I really wanted to believe him that he would visit us.I finally stood up from my bed, and went to locked
THELMA:'Is this a dream?' - I had asked myself, as I couldn't believe that Mavin would really messaged me."No, Is not a dream" I said, and typed my response to him - "I am fine and you?.*Good* - Mavin replied. He didn't even waited a single second and I wonder what he's up too?.Is he missing me like I missed him too?.Does he want to speak with me?.I was afraid but at the same time curious to know.I got a message notification popup from him, and he asked - *How about your family?.*I frowned and wondered if Mavin also knew about the fact that Steven and him were brothers, Yet he slept with me and pretended like he knew nothing about it.I didn't replied and felt sadder. I remember the day that Mavin had sent me away from his office tooHe had s*X with me in his office. Yet he was so bold to throw me out and not even glancing at me again.The anger in his eyes on that very day was enough to show to me, how much of disgust that he had for meI kept staring at my phone screen in si
MAVIN:I went to inspect the new company as it's a working Monday morning. So far Grandpa hadn't been disturbing me about marrying anyone again, even as it is a brand new year.I was still contemplating on my decision in going to Thelma's father mansion and to ask for her hand in marriage.I closed at my office at 5pm, and I stood up to leave for home. I only arrived at the company to inspect the progress levels of the new companies that I visited and to save the records on my computer and sign out for the day.I wore a black trouser and ash grey shirt with my suit jacket rested on my right arm while I left the company building and went outside to my carI got into my car, as I had a hectic day.I started my car engine and drove homeArriving home, I saw Grandpa seated at the garden while I parked my car and locked it up before walking up to meet him there.The sun had gone down, and Grandpa smiled as he watch me approaching him."Good evening Grandpa" - I greeted and he smiled."Welc
Thelma Sabastain:I finished drinking my tea in the dinning room and watched Steven stood up from the dinning seat across to me."I am already leaving now to work" - Steven informed me. I replied - "Okay brother."I sighed after Steven left our mansion as since when mother and father had gone upstairs, After father angrily walked away from the living room. I was left alone and I stood up from the dinning chair and walked towards the living room staircase before I climbed on it and went upstairs my bedroom.I was still a little worried now knowing that Mavin and Steven were related and half brothers.I sighed - "Hmm" and pushed my room door opened, before I walked into my bedroom.I approached the headboard where I kept my phone the previous day, I took my phone and decided to switched it on, as I hadn't charged it since, nor caring to know what was happening in the outside world.I switched on my phone and searched about Mavin White. I want to see his face again and felt like I had si
Thelma.I didn't want to know what Steven wanted, so I ignored greeting him as I couldn't believe that he would supported father, in not informing Mavin that I'm pregnant for him."Sister." - Steven spoke, as he walked up to my bed to meet me.My room was very wide, and by bed was positioned in the centre of my bedroom."What do you want?, just leave me alone and leave my room too" - I said, still wanting Steven to leave and not looking at his face."I know that you're angry with me sister, But I think Father made the best decision so that you don't have anything doing with Mavin again.."I didn't said anything. That had always been Steven words, so if he didn't have anything important to say to me, He can as well walk out from my room, just as he walked inside now."Thelma, So you have no idea why Father doesn't want you to marry Mavin?" - Steven questioned, and I replied - "No. Mavin doesn't want me, So why should I be bothered if father want me to marry Mavin or not.. My point is w
Mavin White:"Empty threat.. Come on Grandpa, I have told you that I still don't like women, I want Thelma, And seeing Steven today at the event centre.. I just feel guilty for not asking him of Thelma., is not like I don't know the family circle that surround us now, but I still want Thelma back, I miss her."Grandpa shook his head in pity and said - "Conrad will never approved of you both relationship Mavin.. The earliest you look for another woman and forget about Thelma. It doesn't seem right and you should see her like your sisiter, as her father and your father were best friends before in the past, more like brothers. If not Julie that left Conrad and her little son to have an affair with your father..""Hmm, Do you think I'm not dad's son truly, with the way Father kept calling me a bastard?" - I asked Grandpa sadly, and knowing that Grandpa had raised me alone, while my father rejected me, and my mother, I couldn't speak of her now, after seeing that she's pregnant at her age.
