Chapter 29 .....Sofia.... The way Saul and Keith where holding each other, no way on earth would they lie nothing was going on between them, I felt betrayed yet again by the two most important people in my life, why did they do this to me all the time? "Sofia, you are finally here" Keith stood up and tried to hug me but I pushed her off "You promised you would stay away from him" I said, I was hurt she couldbt keep to her promise already "Sophie nothing is going on between your brother and me, we were just talking about max and I ended up feeling bad and had a break down", I could see her eyes where red and puffy indicating she wasn't lying but... "Where is max?" I asked "Dad, took him" Saul began and explained everything that happened, I was dumbfounded as I listened on, Dad was planning on something and he was trying to use max to control Saul, Saul might not be aware but Dad always has his was way with me, whatever it was Dad wanted, I needed to speak to him as soon as I c
Chapter 30 ...Sofia... In thirty minutes, I had arrived at the Madison mansion, The first person I ran into was Maria, She was at the Dinner table having her supper alone "Sweetheart, thank God you are here, please join me, its boring having Dinner alone" she said when she noticed me, I was starving but I needed to see father right away "I will eat later, where is Dad?" I asked "He stepped out" "And Max?" "He went with the little boy, he couldn't stop crying, that kid is quite troublesome" I went and took a seat at the Dinner table and joined Maria eating while waiting for them to return "What do you expect when he refuses to let him stay with his mother?" I commented "So, how did your date go that day?" Maria asked as she ate her food "Date?" I asked, I had not told Maria anything about Garvin, I even remembered refusing to admit I had bought that dress for a date "Come on Sofia, am not stupid, I know you went on a date that day and am assuming it went well as I don't see
Chapter 31....Keith...It was Sofia's car that had just arrived and I couldn't stop the tears flowing down my face when she got out with my max, i quickly ran to hug them both before I carried my son and kissed him all over his face"Max, my baby I missed you soo much" I said as I looked at his cute face, he had a smile on his face as well "Where you crying?" I asked looking at his red eyes"I wanted mommy and Daddy" he said, I hugged him even more tight when he said that, for a second, I had thought I lost my son last night now, he was back and in my arms and it felt like heaven."He is fine keith, you worry too much, I spend the night with him and he slept like an angel except the time he woke up for his milk, he really takes after his Dad", Saul and Rose walked up to us"Daddy!" Max exclaimed as Saul carried him in his arms"Did grandpa hurt you?" Saul asked as he inspected his body"No, he bought me ice cream and told me he would take me to mummy if I stopped crying" little max
Chapter 32...Keith..."What is it Rose?" I asked"You know he wont be able to work with you if you go back to New york, I was hoping you would come with me to my place in the meantime while you work out a deal with him", Honestly, that was unexpected and I found myself tongue tied, Rose didn't leave in this city which would be a good thing since I would be far away from the Madisons, but then, I missed home so very much,I missed my parents and sisters a lot, I couldn't even wait to see them"Keith, this is a once in a life time opportunity, do you even know who this friend of mine is?" Rose asked, I had not actually been told who the man was but since These where billionaires, I figured it was someone who was important in the industry"Who is it?" I asked anxiously"J.j Mathews" my eyes widened when I heard that name"Rose!" I said holding both her hands"Are you serious, thee J.J Mathews!?" I exclaimed"Yes, the world's best artist and he thinks you have magical hands", I throw my
Chapter 33...Keith...Saul's face instantly turned Red as he stood up and slapped the girl"Saul!" I screamed when he attempted to slap her again"Stay out of this Keith" he said looking at her with eyes full of fury"Saul you said you loved me, you lied to me and used me, you promised me we would be together" the girl said as she began to cry, honestly I felt bad for her,She was only a little girl, whatever the hell Saul was thinking when He gave false hopes To her."I told you, I don't want anything to do with you or your mother, the next time you disturb and embarrass me like this again, I swear you will regret it", the girl turned to look at me and at a fast pace, she jumped at me and scratched my neck,Saul quickly caught her and pinned her to the ground as a few of his guards walked over"You hoe, you took him away from me, you dirty hoe, am going to make sure I kill you, Saul is mine!!" She continued to scream as the guards dragged her away,Saul was already touching my blee
Chapter 34...Saul...My mind was in a mess, things where going from Bad to worse, it had been three days and Dad refused to show up at the office or even talk to me, he was furious and though his anger was justified, I couldnt understand why he puting the blame on me.I missed Max terribly, it had been three days since he had left with Keith and Mom,I missed them all, I couldnt help noticing how the house was now quite, I missed mom's baking and even missed arguing with Keith,I had called Mom to ask about Keith and Max and how they were settling down,I had known that once Keith returned back to new york, I would rarely have time to spend with my son thats why I had asked in a favor from my Mom's old friend JJ Mathews, he did like Keith's painting but didnt have an empty spot in his gallery, luckily, he was pretty close with mom so it wasn't difficult to ask for a favor from him and at the end of the day, I would always have time to see my son anytime I wanted, it was only a few ho
Chapter 35....Saul...I went out to a certain bar I was fond of going in the past except the past month when I was too busy,I needed to get the stress out of me and what other best way to do this than at a place like this,I took a seat and ordered a drink and soon, different types of women made their way to my table trying to strike up a conversation with me, of course i brushed them off, I wasn't yet ready for that until I got my fill with drinking,The bar wasn't very crowded in the VIP room so the moment Sara Crown walked in, I saw her and immediately recognized her.I Watched her every step keenly wondering what the hell she was doing in a place like this, from what I heard from my father, she was a well trained person from the military and barely had a life of her own, despite her father being a very rich well known person, she was quite reserved and only a few people had heard about her.Sara walked over to an empty Table and ordered her beer,For a strange reason, I felt my
Chapter 36 ....Keith.... New place, and it seemed I was leaving a new life, I finally started working on my painting two days ago, its been a week since I started working and I must admit it was a very good week, JJ mathews was very nice and friendly and usually corrected me in some errors, I knew I was going to do well with him being my mentor. Max stayed home with his grandma and usually went to her bakery with her, I missed him most of the time but I was already getting used to working away from home, Sofia and I kept in contact most of the time and Saul, today was the day he was supposed to visit, I was working half day and couldnt wait to go home already, Just as I got busy with the painting, my phone began to ring and I reached for it, "Saul" I said a smiling forming on my lips "Keith, are you at the studio?" "Yes, I will be knocking off in an hour" I said looking at my wrist watch "Good, am on my way to pick you up" he said and immediately hang up, I rushed into the
Chapter 144...Last chapter...KEITHI woke up late today, not that I could blame myself though, I was already heavily pregnant.Today was the day finally, the day I had been waiting for the past few months, now that it was here,I couldn't think of a time I was more happier than now, I was marrying the love of life, the father of son and the baby in my stomach,All this still felt like a dream, I had never thought I would live to see this day come,"Here" I turned to the door only to realize Sofia and Risa where standing there"How is the new bride in town doing?" Risa asked"Horrible, am so anxious and I feel like this baby just wants to come out" I complained"Well, he still has a month until he comes so he better hang in there" sofia laughed"Your brother is just impossible, we should have waited until I give birth I wanted" Saul had insisted that the baby should be born when we were already married,I couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed with the way the baby bump was big,
Chapter 143 ...Keith... Saul, Rose, Risa and I had gotten to the private jet with Saul driving, Rose had thought Sofia since she was just recently married, Sofia had refused but we all insisted that she remained. We reached in the afternoon and immediately rushed to the hospital, Max was still laying the same position I had left him in, I touched his cold fingers before I turned to Gorge and Lisa "How is he?" I asked, "In the same condition, where is his father, I feel like we are wasting time" "He is talking with the Doctor" Rose replied "Rose, Risa, this is Gorge and Lisa," I then turned to gorge and Risa "This is Saul's mom and my young sister Risa", Rose went to max's side holding his hand "My little boy, how long has he been like this?" She asked "Almost a week now" she shook her head as she began to cry "Am so sorry Keith" I hugged her in comfort "There is no way you would have known, I begged and pleaded with Mr Madison to let Saul come here but he refused" I s
Chapter 142...AUTHOR'S NARRATIVE..."Surprise!" Maria yelled practically looking like a mad woman"What are you doing here looking like that?" Mr Madison asked with a grinFor someone who had a gun pointed at him, he didn't look scared in the slightest"Get into your car slowly and start driving" she said now standing just an itch from him,Mr Madison got into the car with Maria, she gave him the directions on where to go,When they arrived there which was her house, she led him upstairs to her room,She had asked all the maids to leave before going to the church, she had actually planned on killing him there and then but decided against it.She tied Mr Madison on the bed and surprising enough, he didnt put up any fight, maybe it was because he knew he had come to his end."My Dear beautiful wife, tell me why you didn't just kill me at the church, you didnt have to go through all the trouble of bringing me all the way to your dirty little nest" Mr Madison said with a smirk on his fac

She asked"Don't be so hard on me honey, I love you and I only wants best for you" Sara was getting tired of hearing those words, she could not understand how something that made her so unhappy could be what was best for her"I brought you this, it was your mother's, she wore it on her wedding day, she looked as beautiful as you" he said as he put the neck around her neck,"There you go, now the look is complete, your mother would be so proud of you right now" she doubted out though."Let's go, the church ceremony has probably began" he said,He led Sara outside where the bridesmaids who were some people her father hired her,They got into th

Rose asked"He is supposed to undergo an operation but unfortunately, his mother wasn't a match and the only way to save him is to jabe his father here", Rose, Sofia and Risa was still confused unable to understand what the was going"Gorge please explain everything that is happening there" and so he explained that had happened from the time Keith had come,Sofia finally, hang up the call and dialed Saul's name but his slime wasn't going through,"What should we do mother, Saul is the only way to save Max

Lisa asked, she looked as sad as I was"We are doing a transplant today, he will be fine, he will wake up and be well again" I said either teary eyes,"Am so sorry honey, no mother should ever go through something like this, am really sorry" lisa said as she pulled me in a hug"Don't worry, he will be fine, he
