🏵️ CHAPTER 95 🏵️"Are you done yet? " Denzel asked Lena who was seated by her dressing mirror and doing the final touching of decorating her ears with earrings. She gave herself the last look, more like checking herself out in the mirror to make sure she was looking good before answering,"Yep! I'm ready " She turned to see Denzel standing by the door with folded arms and raised eyebrows like he was so done with her."That took you almost half of the day " "Hey! That's how we women are. We take our time in everything. Don't you know I have to look good? Not just good, I have to look amazing. First impression matters "Denzel rolled his eyes at Lena's remark."So, tell me. How do I look? " Lena turned around for Denzel to check her out."You're looking ok, Lena " He almost groaned and Lena frowned."Just that? I'm looking ok? Is that really all you have to say? " Lena was starting to get annoyed. "I spent hours getting ready and all you have to say is that I'm ok? "
🏵️ CHAPTER 96 🏵️"Richard?! ""Lena?! ""Oh my God! Richard, is this really you? " Lena exclaimed in disbelief and the guy standing before her chuckled happily. Without even thinking it twice, they both hugged each other."Wow, I can't believe this " Lena chuckled and they both pulled out."I can't believe it either, Lena. I can't believe this is you " Richard mumbled and took her hands, making Lena laugh."It's been so long, Richard. How have you been doing and what brought you back to New City? ""I've been doing just fine, Lena. I just decided to you know, branch in a little bit. I've missed my hometown; my friends and my family so I decided to pay them a visit. And so happy you're the first person I met after coming back " "When did you come back? ""That was... there weeks ago. Almost a month approximately " Richard chuckled."So tell me, Lena. What about you? How have you been? ""I'm fine, like perfectly fine ""Yeah, I can see that. You're looking... more beautif
🏵️ CHAPTER 97 🏵️"Denzel, my son. Is that you? " Hearing his father's voice after more than decades was like an electric shock to Denzel. A shock of emotions. He couldn't even remember the last time he heard him call him 'son'. He couldn't even remember the last time he even saw his face.That would probably be after that day he found out the truth and ran away from home. The same house he was in now and standing on his two feet.Denzel stared at the almost-dying man on the bed and couldn't believe he was his father. He has changed so much, so much that he wouldn't have even recognized him if not that his mother was seated beside him.From where he was standing, Denzel could see that he has immaciated a lot from how he was the last time he saw him. His eyes were weak and he could barely keep them open. His skin looked old and saggy and his face was already decorated with wrinkles. All his hair has already fallen out with only a few barely still visible.Seeing all
🏵️ CHAPTER 98 🏵️"For years I was hurting because of what you did and even though I wanted the pain to go away, it didn't. It got to a point where I had to give up trying. I gave up trying to move on " A strand of tears finally rolled down Denzel's face but he quickly wiped it off..."I taught that hating you the more will make the pain go away or make it stop somehow but then I realized that it didn't solve anything. It only made the pain worse ""Then someone helped me realize that I was the one slowly killing myself. I was the one causing myself pain because I refused to let go of the past. It was only then did I realized that if I want to be truly happy, then I have to let go of the hatred I had for you or anyone who has ever wronged me " Denzel bit his lip and looked down."So you're wrong, Hanks. I didn't come here because I was forced or compelled to. I didn't come to see you just to fulfill all righteousness ""I came here because I want to move on. I came her
🏵️ CHAPTER 99 🏵️ By the time everyone was done celebrating the family reunion, it was already very late so they all decided to spend the night at Mr. Brenton's place. It was an amazing night for the old man, one he hadn't experienced in almost twenty years of his life. Even the maids and servants could testify that they haven't seen a night like this. Denzel left the dining table and went to the quiet and cool garden. He just wanted to have some time to himself and so he left without alerting anyone. The cold stared at space with his hands inside his pockets. His mind wandered to old memories, the last memory of this place he could remember. He couldn't believe how much things have changed. And he couldn't believe that a day like this would come. A day when he would ever forgive his father. Thinking about it now, Denzel realized it wasn't as hard as he taught it would be. Yeah, it wasn't easy but it wasn't impossible either. And now that he has finally forgiven his father, the c
🏵️CHAPTER 100 🏵️ TWO DAYS LATER The entire family stood, holding each other close as the priest did the final rite of Late Mr. Brenton. Denzel, Mrs. Brenton, Lena, Gavin, Susann, Aria, Mrs. Amelia, Mr. Thomas, and a few relatives, were all present, dressed in black and heads bowed in sadness and sobbing. Gavin held Mrs. Brenton as the old woman cried her heart out, Gavin too not being able to hold back his tears. Denzel on the other hand just stood and watched his father’s coffin being lowered to the ground of the cemetery and covered in hips of sand before his grave was branded, without even blinking an eye. The cold man was still finding it difficult to believe that he was gone. No! To him, it felt like a dream, a nightmare that he was pleading and begging to be woken up from. Why?! Why now?! Why did he leave him, of all time, now?! Why must it be now that he has finally forgiven him? Why must it be now that he has decided to finally move on? Why must it be n
🏵️ CHAPTER 101 🏵️Lena arrived home and was surprised to see that Denzel was already home. He was in the kitchen, fetching a glass of water for himself. Lena smirked to herself and tiptoed to where he was. Standing on her tiptoe, she reached out and covered Denzel's eyes from behind."Knock, knock. Guess who it is? " Denzel scoffed to himself. He held her hands and released them from his eyes. In a swift motion, he carried her and placed her on the kitchen counter before coming in between her legs. Lena giggled."It's none other than my short Pikachu " Denzel answered making Lena pout with a frown."I'm not short " She mumbled with a sad pout."Oh really? You couldn't even cover my eyes without raising your feet " "That's because you're too tall! You're the problem here not me " Lena huffed with a deep frown. Denzel smiled at how adorable she looked with her cheeks puffed up and red in anger.He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her cheeks, grazing his teeth lightly on t
🏵️ CHAPTER 102 🏵️ "This photo is lying. I didn't kiss Richard, I will never do that! Believe me, Denzel, this photo is fake. Nothing of the sort happens between me and Richard! " Lena defended immediately, her heart hammering hard against her chest. "We only hugged as old time friends. Whoever sent you this photo is trying to frame me, Denzel. He or she is lying!..." "I know, Lena! " Denzel cut Lena off immediately. "Do you think I will just believe some random photos sent to my phone from an unknown? My trust in you isn't that vulnerable! " " Listen, Lena. I know that these pictures are either photoshopped or taken from the wrong angle. And I think I know the person sending me these pictures but that's not my point " Lena let out a deep heave and her mind relax instantly. "I don't trust another man being with my wife. It's not that I don't trust you, I just don't trust that friend of yours, and neither am I going to trust any man that tries to get close to you " "My point
