Be Careful With My Heart For Kevin
The next day, Jamie was feeding little Kevin milk when she heard a loud noise downstairs. She, at first, thought she'd misheard but then again the noise became louder. It seemed that people were quarreling.Strapping Kevin on her arms she hurried down the stairs. She stopped with immediate effect upon seeing Milton and two police officers. Jake was straightening his shirt while the policemen held a furious Milton away from him.Mrs Bryan stood in a corner crying her eyes out."Get your hands off me!" Milton yelled and the policemen agreed. He walked to where Jamie stood, he reached for her arms. Kevin giggled on seeing his play buddy, not aware of what was going on."J-jamie, are you okay? I'm so sorry I'd delayed that night. Tell me, did he..did he hurt you?" Jake came from behind and pushed Milton away from Jamie, she gasped."Don't touch my wife,"Milton retaliated by grabbing his collar and sending him to the floor with a punch. The policemen were quick to come to his rescue."Tha
Be Careful With My Heart I want a divorce
Jake knocked on Jamie's door after the incident however a voice responded casually,"Get lost," she paused and added "I don't want to see your face."Jake was not fazed by her attitude. He grabbed the spare key from his mother and unlocked the door. He met Jamie sitting at the foot of the bed. Kevin was playing happily in his crib."I said I don't want to see your face," she repeated indifferently as she glared at him. Her hair was slightly scattered over her head and Jake closed the door behind them."When would you stop being furious?" Jake's hands went into his pants pockets "I have apologized for my mistakes, I'm a changed man. Why are you being difficult?""What? You're feeling important simply because I didn't rat you out to the police??" she said with acute disgust "Kevin is the only reason I am still with your sorry ass, you know you don't deserve it!"Jake clenched his fists in his pockets. "For how long will this last?" he demanded calmly "You don't plan on raising our son w
Be Careful With My Heart The end is near
Jake narrowed his eyes."What?" he stomped towards her "What did you say??""You heard me clearly," Jamie sounded aloof with no single fear in her. She had totally lost any respect she had left for this man "I want a divorce and I'm gonna get it.""If I let you." he smirked before grabbing her hair. He walked towards the bed and grabbed her phone. "Son-of-a-bitch, let go!" Jamie screamed and this time Kevin's cry became more louder but he was left unattended to. At that moment, Mrs Bryan began to knock on the door."Jamie, you will regret this." he said before he smashed the phone against the floor. His boot did the last damage by scrunching it to pieces."Jake, what's going on?! Get this door open now." Mrs Bryan shouted from outside.Dragging Jamie along, he walked towards the door and opened it. Mrs Bryan was shocked to see Jamie in this state. She could also see the red marks on her neck. However she wasn't as shocked as seeing Jake who had said he is a changed man."Jake, what i
Be Careful With My Heart A blessing in disguise

He was still mad at her and for this reason, did not respond to any of her mails.Right now, he'd given up hope on finding out who worked in cohorts with the Don to murder Lilian.

"Hello, Don. We meet again." Stephanie stepped into the room and took a seat opposite the Don. "And who's this? I've never seen him around here" she asked while casting a suspicious gaze on Mike."Welcome, Stephanie" Don Anderson returned the pleasantry "That there is my right hand man.""He seems familiar. You must trust him enough for him to be here in the academy." she commentedThe Don chuckled as he filled his wine."I do," he answered "What brings you to France, Stephanie?""I understand you trust your right hand man but I need privacy, Don. Just you and me." Stephanie requested"You can leave now, Mike. Your work here's done." Mike hesitated and only moved when the Don shot him another look. He bowed and began to walk away. He thought that Stephanie was having a hard time recognizing him but he knew her the moment she had stepped through that door.Before Lilian's change of attitude and lifestyle, he remembered her speaking of Stephanie who wanted Diana to fulfill a deal.

Stephanie had gotten the Don to give her what she asked for before letting him collapse on the bed.She walked into the bath and cleaned herself up, although her legs wobbled unsteadily."Stupid Don," she cursed as she shut the bathroom door with a loud thud. She came out thirty minutes later and got dressed as fast as she could. However, her phone began to ring very loudly."Shut that thing up and get out of here," the Don groaned in his sleep.Stephanie immediately took her phone and stepped out of the room. It was Ryan. Her heart leaped as she answered the call."Stephanie!" he screamed into the phone "Thank you very much!"She didn't understand, "What are you saying, Ryan? Are you alright?" The sound of racing cars and bullets firing into the air answered her question and made her gasp."This is thanks to you, Steph." he repeated"I'm very sorry, Ryan. I didn't mean to-""Just shut up," he ordered "I don't know who's going to make it out alive here and even if I die, either Edwar

"Mother, mother.." Beverly called out the moment she set her eyes on her mother whom she'd been looking for few minutes ago.She held her arm, "Mum, come with me immediately.""Beverly, I'm busy-" she paid no attention as she continued to give orders to the maids on how things should be arranged. "Mom it's important!!" Beverly yelled and then Layla stared at her. She saw that Beverly was serious so she placed a head maid in charge and followed her daughter upstairs.Beverly banged the door closed."Beverly, what is it?""Mrs Anderson just received a letter from a doctor.""And so?" Layla didn't seem to understand"Mum, what if she took samples from my child to give to the doctor when I was unconscious??""That is not possible. I was here with you the whole time."Beverly shook her head "I remember that the man knocked me unconscious. God knows what would have happened before you came in. Besides, the attack this time was not to rape me. If not I wouldn't have been knocked unconscious.

Since it was still early in the morning, only few cars were on the road but the men in battle didn't care.Edward was hot on Ryan's trail. He did not stop shooting at his car but he was careful not to hit the screens because of Diana. Still, Ryan did not stop. He shot at Edward's car mercilessly and although he was lucky to have missed the bullets, the windscreen of his car was beyond damage.As the car trail became heated, Edward managed to swerve to the left where he hit the acceleration and drove up to Ryan's car. The latter gave him a deadly look."You're gonna die!" he screamed at him but Edward was looking at someone else. Diana had lifted her eyes to the window when she heard Ryan cursing.
