Chapter 41 ...Saul... The next day, Keith was still horribly sick which got me even more restless, the Doctor had said she would be better but all I saw was her getting worse and I couldn't be more worried about her, I stared at her pale face as she laid in bed while I held her hand tightly, 'I hope you get better soon' I whispered even though I knew she wouldn't hear me, Just then, my phone vibrated on the bed and I reached for it, A frown formed on my face when I saw Sara was calling, It was Just 10am, what the hell did she want now?, I wondered, I decided to ignore the phone and turned it off, A few minutes later, I could hear the landline ringing downstairs and rushed there before it woke Keith up, of course I already knew who was calling and for the sake of shutting her up, I decided to answer the call "Saul where are you?" Sara asked immediately I answered "What's wrong?" I asked back "I asked where you are, am at the office and your sister just told me you haven't bee
Chapter 42 ...Sofia... "Dad why did you call me here?" I asked as I made my way into his study, "Wait patiently for your brother to come?" I rolled my eyes at that "I don't think he will even come, he won't leave Keith even for a second" I stated "What has really come over Saul and this woman huh?" "I don't know, its like he is obsessed" I harshed out "Then we need to move to the next part of our plan as soon as we can, Saul needs to propose to Sara" "Good luck with that, Sara on the other hand is smitten, your son is just being difficult for no reason", both of us breathed out in frustration, Saul was seriously getting on our nerves, I couldn't forget what he told me a few weeks ago about how he wasn't planning on staying away from keith and I better deal with it, Its like he woke up one morning and was obsessed all of a sudden which was soo unlike my brother, if I didn't know better, I would have thought Keith did something to him and speaking of which, I felt soo much res
Chapter 43 ...KEITH... Even though I was feeling sick, I cried for a long time after Sofia left, I cried about the so called pregnancy and what I was going to do about it especially since I had no idea how it happened, Saul boldly told me he had not slept with me that night and besides, I was going to feel some difference if he Had. My mind was exploding with the what happened question, this wasn't just possible, as soon as I felt better, I was going to go and get a pregnancy test myself just to confirm again, It all sounded like a joke to me and to make it worse, after Sofia came, I was feeling more horrible, she thought i was pretending to be sick as if I even wanted to be stuck in bed and be at Saul's place. It hurt that she misunderstood me that much, it seemed like she was a whole different person and no longer my best friend, I quickly dried up my tears when I heard some footsteps fast approach my room, the nurse had already gone off for the day and max was already sleepin
Chapter 44 ...Keith... "Saul are you going anywhere today?" I asked as he taught Max how to play a certain video game in the play room "Yes, I will be leaving shortly in the afternoon to take care of some business", I bit my lower lip hard wondering how I would ask him not to go, at least not today,, "What's wrong, you don't want me to leave?" He asked when he stole a glance at me "No" "Why" this time he turned to look at me for more than a second "I just feel like spending time with you and max today" I said truthfully "Come here" he pulled me on his lap and kissed my check "Daddy, play the game!" Max yelled while I quickly stood up so I couldn't distract him anymore "You know, Am happy to hear that from you" Saul said smiling, I left the play room and went upstairs to Saul's room which was also my room, To be honest, I felt like I was already married to him, I realized I had feelings for him and with each passing day, they were growing strong, I began to wonder if at all
Chapter 45 ...Keith... I got home around 4pm amd found Saul outside waiting for me with max, Immediately I got down from the car, he walked over "What the hell where you still doing, you have been gone for hours" he began to scold me, That moment, I found no words to tell him as I broke down and began to cry and ran into the house, Saul followed me calling my name over and over again but I did not respond to him, I went straight to Max's room and locked myself in, I sat behind the door and began to cry, "Keith, what happened?" I heard him ask as he banged on the door demanding I open it for him, I did not respond to him "Keith, please open the door" he said, "Keith, did something happen?" He continued to ask, eventually after long minutes, Saul finally gave up and left, I carried my already heavy body and went to the bathroom as I felt nauseous, I stayed in the bathroom for what seemed like forever feeling more sick than ever, I managed to crawl on the bed and slept. Whe
Chapter 46 ...Keith... I opened my heavy eyes and looked around the room, The room was unfamiliar but after focusing my vision, I realized I was in a hospital room, "You are awake" I heard Saul's voice say and turned to the direction of the voice. At the sight of him, I remembered exactly what had happened "Where is Max?" I asked hopefull that Saul had him by now, my heart broke when I Saul stared on the floor his head held low, I got out of bed and went to kneel in front of him "Saul please, where is my son?" I asked almost crying "I don't know, Dad has him" I instantly stood up and paced around the room, "Why, why does he have my son, why is he keeping him away from me?" I asked "I don't know, I, I, tried to convince him to bring him back but he refused, we will just have to give him some time keith" "Some time?!, Saul am sick and tired of this place, am tired of your family doing this, my son is innocent, he does not deserve this, just because he is your son doesn't mean
Chapter 47 ...Saul... That Evening, I could not sleep no matter how much I tried, I was currently in a hotel room where I planned to spend the night. I was worried about where max was and if at all he was being well taken care of, I worried about keith, I couldn't imagine what she was going through at the moment and to top it all, Max was gone, 2am, I reached for my phone and anxiously called Bruno, I needed to know how Keith's health was at the moment. "Sir" Bruno answered in what sounded like a sleepy voice "Where are you?" I asked "Am by the penthouse sir, just like you ordered", "How is Keith, she is sick, you have to check up on her" "She went to sleep immediately she arrived", I frowned as I didn't know Keith had not been home, "Where was she and what time did she come?" I fired questions at him, Bruno briefly explained to me and I couldn't help worrying more about her, if I guessed right, she might have gone to see Sofia and right now, I felt Sofia was too dangerous t
Chapter 48 ....keith... Five days, it has been exactly five days since max was taken away from me, five days since I left this house, five days since I last saw Saul and five days since I realized I was imprisoned here. I felt suffocated, I could not eat or sleep for days in a roll, I had tried to call Saul a number of times but each time my call was never answered, it became clear to me that he was ignoring me.. Today as usual, I tried to convince Bruno to let me out like I did each morning for the past few days, the man wouldn't let me step foot out of the house, I was angry at Saul for doing this while ignoring me, he wanted me Safe yet he didn't have the balls to pick up his phone whenever I called. I went back inside the house dejected "Miss, have breakfast..." "Fuck you and that breakfast" I cursed at Bruno without much care, I sat in the living room as I called Rose, I had been talking to her on a regular basis the past few days, she was to come today and I couldn't wa
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?"

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
