Mrs Wilson alighted from the car and was about climbing the veranda when a car drove into the compound, she turned to see that it was Reid driving recklessly.

"He must be crazy!" She mumbled and waited for Reid to step forward to her. The young man locked up his car and matched towards the veranda only to see her mom standing there. "I saw you here when I was driving in—and you're still here waiting for me?" His brows arched.

Even though he was done with the business board chairman, that anger still roams in him. Reminiscing about the statement Felix made about Anna's fertility, he felt like tearing him into pieces.

"Where are you coming from?" Mrs Wilson twisted her face.

He glared at her for a while and released a loud hiss before walking away from her sight. Just like he has every right to go to places without anyone's permission—no one dares interfere in his matter without permission too.

Mrs Wilson walked into the building after his son and ran ahead just to obstruct his way fr

    Hours elapsed and it was the next day. Anna got ready to leave for work with Reid who was busy pacing round the room while making calls. She grabbed her handbag and marched closer to him, then gripped his left palm."Good to go?" She furrowed her brows in excitement. He smiled and nodded, then got hold of his office box.They left the room together in their car when Lillian hurried towards them. She has been jogging since she woke up—and has been outside all this while so she will get to see Anna before she leaves."You two are already leaving without giving mother a reply to her order yesterday…" she pulled her lips into a smile, taking a glance at the couples.Anna twisted her lips, she wasn't getting what she meant by an order from her mother in law. "Any idea of what she's talking about?" He queried Reid who was seated in the car already. He shrugged his shoulders, "Just come in, let's leave!""What the heck! You can't just leave like that—I see Anna is narrow-minded of what's goi

    The manager bumped into Reid's office to see his boss stiffened at a place staring at the floor. Not just that, he noticed tears on his cheeks. "Sir…Sir, are you okay?" He shook Reid who came back to reality. He gulped and wiped his face, took hold of his cell phone and left his office immediately—he didn't bother saying a single word to his manager, and the young man was dumbfounded. Whatever it is that made his boss shed tears must be critical.Reid was driven to the hospital which was sent to him via text message, he hurried into the emergency ward where he was sure Anna must be lying."Mr Reid, you need to calm down…" the voice of a young man drew his attention. He turned to see a doctor standing two feet away from him—he rushed and clutched his collar.Tears he couldn't hold kept streaming down his cheek, it was uncontrollable. "It's all lies right? Where is she?" He screeched, staggering the doctor.The other doctors around rushed to him and pulled him away from the doctor. One

    He was still pacing round the room when his father came downstairs, he glanced at him and was about to leave when his father called him back. "I overheard a loud noise here, that's why I came down—did anything happen?" Mr Blake Wilson referred to his son. Reid shook his head, since Felix already left a few seconds after the corps took Lillian, there was no way he would find out what went on minutes ago. "Everything is fine. Just take a rest!" He muttered and faced the door."It's been a while since we discussed your wife and her company that has been merged with yours…"He glared at his father and released a loud hiss. If only he knows the feelings he was battling with at the moment—he won't bring up that matter. "Any problems with my wife? I'm in a haste, dad…" He blurted, his voice a bit deep that one would easily notice his mood, but his dad was less concerned—all he wished was to talk about Anna and her company. "Uhmm! It's about the contract. Any news about it?" Reid gritted

    A few seconds after Reid left the lawyer's office, he came in again to ask for a favor. He needs to go stay with Anna because she needs her most in that condition. "Follow them to the police custody!" He said to the young man who twisted his face on hearing that Reid will always do things in his favour especially when it has to do with something crucial.He shook his head, "I can't! They can do the work without my presence…" the lawyer stated.Reid tapped his finger on the table, "I know how stubborn Lillian is, and Felix might as well go to the DOP—but your presence will make everything go smoothly." He narrated to the lawyer, trying to make him understand things.He thought about it for a while and agreed to it. The fact that Reid is the reason he's in that position is one reason he should respect his decision. At least, the young man gives him the respect he deserves even though he was the one who put him through education and so many other things. And recalling that Felix is a di

    Five days had elapsed since Anna went into a coma. Reid had been feeling depressed, at some point he felt like his world was meaningless without. Staying at home became one difficult thing for him—and he never bothered about going to work.His priority was to see Anna wake up again. No minute passed without him sitting beside her, speaking some words that could bring back the dead just the doctor advised. “You have a visitor waiting in the guest room!” the nurse in charge of the VIP ward where Anna was staying announced. He stood up, although he wasn't expecting a visitor—but he had to go see who it was.“Look after her while I'm out.” he referred to the nurse before leaving. In the guest room was seated Lilian whose arms were folded against her chest. He walked closer to her, knowing fully well that he had gotten her arrested five days ago.“What are you doing here?” his brows furrowed.She stretched her hand out as a greeting but he ignored it. “I just asked you a question, I never

    According to the instructions given by the doctor, Anna will have to spend more days in the hospital before leaving. She needs to recuperate before leaving the hospital—and Reid acceded to it. But he was drained each time he recalled everything Lillian had told him about Anna.He was finding it difficult to believe her, but at the same time could see himself longing to know about the secret. “I'll need to hear from williams or rather felix, there's no way with all this evidence and signs that im seeing ill still go ahead and doubt it…” he bit his lower lips and stood up to leave.“Reid, you're leaving?” Anna called him back. He had promised to stay with her until she sleeps off, but with the urge to know the truth about her—he has to leave. “I'll be back soonest, just hang in there for me…” he uttered without taking a glance at her before departing from the room.Anna noticed the facial expression on his face and perceived that everything isn't alright from his end. “Is it his company

    By the end of the day, Reid left Anna with no assurance of returning to the hospital. The only favor he did was to visit Mr. Grande and announce her daughter's condition and how she needs to be taken care of.“Is she not your wife any longer? You shouldn't even leave her side.” Mr Grande yelled at Reid after he complained about Anna's condition.Reid pouted his lips angrily, he didn't want to talk about what was going on with her father. Everything will be just between them and no one dares interfere. Even though it seemed like he already believed what Lillian had leaked, a part of him was still confused. He was still bothered about whether to believe Anna or not.Quite right, he heard the statement she made while with the nurse in the hospital, but he has no proof to believe her just like she doesn't have as well. Looking at what Lillian narrated about Anna's secret, there were few things he could hold firm as a proof that it was almost the truth.“It's been a while since I visited m

    Her feet stiffened at a spot as she stared at Reid, Anna couldn't believe that the man she had never had issues with would turn out to be a monster to her. She sniffed and wiped her face. “I still insist that I'm innocent, and I'm sure you won't come back acting nice when the truth unfolds.” she uttered and went back to the chair she was seating when they came in.Their presence shouldnt disrupt her work, even though it's so painful. When she was almost done with what she was doing, she took a glance at the back to see Lillian putting on her clothes—lying freely on the bed.She gulped and decided to keep calm. She was completely done with her work.Reid was standing beside the wardrobe when she shut down her PC, packed up the files she was working on and put them into her handbag. She approached Lillian who was busy playing games on her cell phone—grabbed her leg and drew her out of the bed.“What do you think you're doing?” Lillian yelled while on the floor. She stood up immediately

    EPILOGUE“It was an order for the both of you to get married, yet you sat back and watched your fellow man take Anna from you,” Lyra screamed at Richard while he was standing before her with his palms dipped into his pocket. “Now, their divorce has been terminated and they will get married soon. What are you going to do?”He scoffed and exhaled a hot breath. “I'll wish them a happy marriage, that's all. We aren't meant to be from the beginning—and there's no way I'll drag her with my brother.” Richard stated.Her eyes grew wide. “Brother? You mean, Reid is your brother?” she walked closer to him. “Are you going to leave this state with him? His father built a company for him and he will be leaving with Anna after their wedding.”“Don't you want me to follow him there? Why do you look anxious all of a sudden?” he grinned and stepped back a bit, but she came closer again and held his hands. “Don't go with him ... you already have your own business here and it's doing well.”He arched hi

    Richard was coming out of the shopping mall when he stumbled on a lady, he lifted his face and was shocked at who he was seeing. She was a total stranger to him, and her looks were scary. “I'm sorry about that..” he pleaded, there was nothing to drag when he wasn't with his men. He made a move only for him to get a terrible hit that sent him to the ground.“My name is Lyra. plan A didn't work, I think Plan B will work smoothly,” she uttered and dragged him to his car despite the looks of people. After she left Anna's residence, she visited the nearest hacker with the help of the cab driver who drove her. Anna's cell phone was hacked and she took Richard's number and then began tracking him.She must bring an end to the reunion of Reid and Anna no matter what. She drove the car herself to Richard's residence, and when his men came forward, she faked being a helper to him and would love to stay by him until he was awake. After so much contemplation, she was allowed to do so and that was

    It was the first time Lyra met with Anna, and she hated it. There was nothing good about seeing the woman that made Reid stay away from her all these years, she wanted to snap her neck, but that wouldn't help, instead, it would cause more issues. She heard everything about Reid and decided to visit his father thinking that he would help out—at least, Reid should take the national company for himself ...but it looked like Anna came for the same reason as well because she overheard a little of their conversations. Now, the bitter part of it isn't that Anna visited for the same reason, she's scared that Anna will make the old man love her again and want her back to Reid and that she wouldn't want. “They are already divorced, so there's much to think about—still I'm scared that they may come back together. Anna is wealthy and famous, she has a company and can easily build Reid again...then I'll be the loser because I offered nothing.” she let out a hot breath. Her eyes caught with the c

    After Anna ended her conversation with the lawyer, she decided to go visit Mr Wilson like she had said. Since the distance was a bit far and it was running late, she booked an urgent flight which took her to their town, and then she boarded a taxi that drove her to their compound.She wished not to see Mrs Wilson, the sight of her still irritates her especially when she recalls that the elderly woman had never loved her. “Greetings Sir!'' She greeted Mr Wilson who was standing at the veranda taking a look around. It's nice to see him stand on his feet without quivering, he was improving faster.“Anna!” he was shocked to see her. He threw his arms around her in an embrace. “It's been a while, how have you been?”She smiled widely. That was unexpected. “Im okay Sir…”“Come on, drop the formalities. Let's go in.” he led the way into the sitting room and offered her a seat. He also ordered the chef to prepare something for her to take which she didn't reject. It's been a while, so everyth

    Anna visited Richard, knowing that her son had been there and Richard would never let her take him back, she decided to see how he was fairing. At least, she was glad that Reid was released, that way she wouldn't feel guilty anytime she recalled him. She didn't want to drive, so her driver took the car key and they drove off. Immediately she arrived at Richard’s residence and stepped into the building, Drake ran towards him like he knew she was coming. She glanced around but Richard wasn't in the sitting room—Drake was the only one in there watching the cartoon that was playing.“Where's uncle?” she asked him and he pointed towards the stairs. “In his room, he only came down once and fed me, then he went back to his room saying that he had a lot to do. He was deaf when I talked about going home to see you.” Drake narrated.She pinched her lips. “Your uncle isn't deaf, he is busy and I already told him that i'll be coming that's why.” she cautioned him and he nodded.She walked upsta

    Reid hugged Anna and bid her goodbye, he went into the car and his lawyer drove off. They were heading to see his parents, that was the only way to know if what they read online was true or just a rumor. His heart wasn't in a place, he wished that it would be all a lie. Not that being their adopted child is a crime or because he feels leaving the company will be the end of his life—but the relationship is what he does not wish to see end.If this is true, then he won't have a family again, no one to talk to or call a family.His parents were having dinner when he arrived at home. They headed to meet them there. Even if they will lose their appetite because of the issue, then there's no issue.“Dad!” He hugged him from behind but he didn't respond. He wasn't shocked, that was also a way of knowing if everything was true or not. He took a seat and signaled the lawyer to do as well. “I am out because I'm innocent,” he uttered only to get a heavy glare from his mother.“Who asked you and

    “No one should mention my name until I get this file.” he barked at one of his men through the phone. His mother already left, and he aimed to find the adoption file and take it to the orphanage that his mother had directed him to. He wants to do this because he believes that it's the only way for him to put down his brother and get everything to himself. “Once the adoption is dissolved, you'll have no right over my father's properties again.” he grinned.The sound of the door made him turn to face his father, he released a loud annoying hiss and went back searching for it again.“Can't you just give up? This is getting out of hand and I hate it….” his father complained. He glared at him and continued, there was no time to reply to his father, all he wanted was to see the file, yet after searching almost all the files he had come across—it was yet to be found. “Just tell me where it is. I'm trying to avoid anything that will bring you down through that bastard.” he screeched at his fa

    It's been five days since Anna was hospitalized yet there was no response from her. Reid had pleaded to go visit her in the hospital, and the DOP allowed him to go with the sergeants, he was bittered when he saw Anna still lying lifeless on the hospital bed, the tears that gathered in his eyes were uncontrollable.He knelt beside the bed and held her palm, staring at her face. “You have to wake up Anna, you've slept a lot. You need to wake up so I won't be life imprisoned, you're the only witness that I have now—so open your eyes and spare me these accusations,” he muttered, hoping to get a reply from her, but he heard nothing, not even her finger moved.The electrocardiogram began making sounds that attracted the attention of everyone in the room, he rushed out of the hospital and alerted the doctor who rushed in with other doctors to check on her.“Conduct CPR!” the senior doctor ordered and one of them began it immediately. It looked like nothing was done, the vital signs were beco
