"Who's there?" Olima asked, growing nervous as she walked up to the door and pulled it open to check who was there.She was still in her long red gown as she approached the huge wooden door and pulled it open.She met eyes with Leah, who smiled at her. Leah had previously come to the room door to check on Olima, but she hadn't responded."Good morning," Leah greeted Olima first, and Olima smiled at her and immediately moved away from the door, replying, "Good morning."Olima saw that Leah was carrying a tray with tea, milk, an empty teacup, and a loaf of bread. Leah said, "Madam asked me to bring this big tea here for you, so you can use it anytime you want instead of waiting for me to finish my morning chores to prepare your breakfast.""Okay, thank you," Olima replied with a smile and stood aside.She watched Leah arrange the tea and milk on the shelf in the room while Leah said, "Wait, let me go and get the electric kettle for you.""Okay, how about a toothbrush and toothpaste, so I
"You haven't said anything yet?" Olima asked Leah, and Leah smiled and replied, "Boss said I should take care of you while he's away. Come drink your tea now; it's getting cold. Here, I brought you a new toothbrush and toothpaste. I'm going out now to continue with my work.""Okay, thanks," Olima replied, forgetting that she didn't even ask Leah how old she was. She sighed as she saw that Leah had hurriedly left her room.Olima sat on the wooden chair in the room that had a leather seat on top of it, and she slowly drank her hot tea, feeling at home and at peace. She wondered how her life would resume after losing her parents.Olima blinked her tears away and slowly loosened the bread to eat it with the tea.Cutting the bread into smaller pieces, she resumed drinking her tea, chugging it down her throat.---Justin left the mansion earlier, as Jesse drove the car to the company. He knew that with his father around, he had to fully concentrate on his work and not give his family any imp
Justin stepped down of his car and walked into the shopping boutique to shop for the feminine wear and lingerie that he wanted to buy for Olima. He's so happy and he wishes he could see her testing the clothes as a happy smile curves on his face.Making his selection with the help of the saleswoman in charge of the boutique. He rounded up with his selection and watched the saleswoman take the load to his car. He paid her an extra fee for helping him carry his load and finally walked out of the shopping boutique.He entered into the back seat of his car while Jesse started the car engine and drove the car home, as the night was gradually approaching...***Olima had earlier gone into Mrs Juliet's mansion as she knew that Justin wasn't around, and his mother was the only one at home. She took permission from his mother and exited the mansion gate with Leah, as they both walked out to the estate street with their legs, and the sun was burning brightly on them."Where's your house?." Lea
Olima and Leah finally arrived at the mansion gate, and they were let into the compound by Alex who remotely locked up the gate.Olima walked up to the guesthouse, as the house was quiet, and she said to Leah and said: "Thank you for escorting me.""You're welcome" Leah replied, as she finally walked back into the main mansion, to continue with her work she couldn't believe Olima's father was truly the owner of that magnificent house.She saw her madam standing on the balcony upstairs, and watching them, as they arrived at the house and walked into the compound.Olima went to her new room to offload her box of clothes, and to fix all her clothes into her wardrobe, as she knew that the house was now her new home.Her room was big, so she took out a lovely blue top and black skirt that she would wear, as she wanted to take her bath...***Justin saw that Jesse was finally arriving at his family mansion and he said to Jesse, "Once we get in, don't bring out the load in the car trunk yet.
Olima woke up in her bedroom as it was a bright sunny day. She was happy as she couldn't believe that she would find favor from strangers. She knew so well that she was unrelated to Justin and his family, yet they truly cared for her like she was their family member. She felt a bit emotional, knowing that she owed them a lot, and knew that her stepmother hated her, and probably plotted to kill her silently with hunger. She wiped the tears away from the corners of her eyes, as she didn't want to soil her mood.She carefully rolls out from the bed, and goes to bath, before she steps out and dresses up in one of the new gowns that Justin has recently bought for her.Olima knew that most of her clothes were still new, as her mother usually bought the most expensive wears for her, and that made it difficult for anyone to know that she was a maid, while she was still living with her stepmother as she usually dresses expensive.Drying her wet body, and her blonde hair too, Olima took up her
"Yes sir, It's here with me" Olima replied, and Justin only continued to stare at her in silence, as he heard his father questioning her."Okay, later you show it to my wife, And when next do you think the university entrance examination starts?" Mr Emerson asked again, and Olima replied, "Next month sir.""Okay. You will register to write the exam... And do you need to be attending any tutorial classes to help you improve your studies and to as well prepare you to pass the exam?" Mr Emerson asked her, and Olima replied, "Yes sir. Thank you, sir.""You're welcome. Later, Justin's mom will guide you through all that, have you had your breakfast yet?.""No sir, " Olima replied, as she thought it best not to lie to them."Okay, come join us for breakfast and after that, you can return to your room," Mr Emerson stood up next and walked towards the dining room while Olima followed them closely from behind after she saw that they had all settled on their dining seat.Justin didn't want to st
Olima turned teary after she heard Barrister Williams read out her late father's will, and her stepmother was silent as well as Mia.Mia felt teary too, as her mother had told her before that her father hated her and he didn't leave any shares for her. As he had long told her that all his properties would be given to Olima alone.She felt sad too that her mother had lied to her and made her hate her father, for not including her in his will, whereas, she had five shares from the houses worth billions in Emerson estate."That's all that is written in the will, and it's quite unfortunate that we lost Mr. Leo before his will was read, as he had long written this well and said he would love to share all his properties when his two daughters have come of age.." Barrister Williams spoke."Thank you, Barrister, So automatically the will is still on hold until both Olima and Mia have come off age?" Mr Emerson asked, as the three landlords too arrived."Yes, but no. Yes, in the sense that Olima
Olima didn't reply to the part where Justin said that she shouldn't have any male friends or boyfriends in school and she only smiled until she heard him say, "I'm serious and they might corrupt you.""Okay. I will keep that in mind," Olima replied, and she watched Justin finally exit her room.She continued to blush as she walked back to her bed and sat on it, she thought about why Justin would mention to her not to have a boyfriend."Well.. what if I see a guy that truly loves me and wants to marry me?" Olima asked herself. But she decided not to wander too much on relationship topics.---Later the following weekend, Olima prepares to leave for school as she was leaving for school first before Justin.She knew that Justin had told her that he would be leaving and they wouldn't get to meet again until five years, and she felt quite emotional about it, that she was finally going to the university.She thanked Justin's parent, and Mrs. Juliet finally gave her good motherly advice, as t
Mrs Juliet still wanted to bond with her grandkids and she begged Olima and Justin to stay and not leave with the twins.Justin smiled and told his mother, "Mom, we are not yet leaving the house."Mrs Juliet sighed in relief and she took Mike and Henry around the mansion, she didn't want the two boys to leave her side. She called her husband on a phone call and showed him photos of the lovely two boys and also video calling with him.Mr Emerson smiled and told her that he wasn't aware and that he would book a return flight back to the country to come see his grandkids too.Olima and Justin stayed back in Justin's family house. They bonded together as a family and ate dinners at the dining table with his mother.Mrs. Juliet finally asked Olima if she had ever gone to pay a visit to her family house again since she left.Olima shook her head and replied, "No ma."They were eating on the dining table and Mrs Juliet spoke about Olima's stepmother. She told Olima that Mrs. Gina had been jai
Olima met with Mrs Juliet's gaze on her. She knew in her mind that if Mrs Juliet had another alternative, she wouldn't be in her office.Olima sighed and replied to Mrs Juliet, "I can understand your decision then ma. But Justin didn't want to."Mrs. Juliet frowned a little and met Olima's nervous gaze on her, She asked Olima, "Didn't you like my son? You made it look like it was only Justin who wanted you?."Olima's cheeks flame red in embarrassment and she replied to Mrs Juliet, "I did like Justin.. but.."Mrs Juliet stopped Olima from finishing her words, she asked Olima, "Tell me the truth. Are you now married? You look like a married woman and I am so scared of what I would tell Justin. I promised him that I would visit you and beg you on his behalf to come home Please come back home and forgive me in particular. I was just hard on you and I cannot explain why."Olima's face turned red as she almost sobbed, but she told Mrs Juliet, "I am not angry with you ma. I can never be angry
Two months passed after Olima and Justin reunited back as lovers, and they became a family even though they hadn't gotten married.Olima hadn't gone to Justin's house was beside hers, to see his house's interior decoration, as she was mostly staying in her own house.She has a lot of entertaining spots in her home, and they usually spend time together whenever Justin visits.They swim in her swimming pool and their twins get used to seeing them together.Mike and Henry already accepted Justin as their father, and Justin now looks healthy and has recovered from his previous slim looks. Unlike the last time that he looks unhealthy.****Jesse has not yet seen the lady of the house that Justin usually visits and even sleeps in her home every day.He only saw the maid of the house and he couldn't ask the maid any questions.One day, Justin's mother called him to return home and she thought to inform him that she had been searching for Olima and she hadn't seen Olima.Mrs. Juliet was not ha
Justin looked up at Olima's face and smiled. He replied, "Yes, I have. I owned the estate.""What?? But I didn't get to see your name there" Olima looked stunned, that she was running away from Justin's family, and she still ended up with him again."I know. I didn't put my name there, but your name is on the document and in my registry too. How about your dad's company? Don't you usually go there, or how do you cope staying here?."Olima smiled and replied, "I go there only once in a while. Mr. Luke gives me an update about the company and he's very trustworthy too. So I don't have to be there always or visit there.""Mm, I hope that you don't run away from this house before I should go to work and return. Or I shouldn't even leave at all, as I don't want you to run away from me again?" Justin asked, taking more steps to meet Olima, while their two sons kept staring at the two of them.Olima smiled and replied, "No, I won't. Where am I going to run away to?.""Do I know? Anywhere of
The following morning, Olima woke up feeling a small hand tapping on her shoulder as she and Justin were still sleeping on the bed "Mummy!" Mike screamed out as he looked shocked to see a man on his mummy's bed.Olima and Justin startled awake and woke up on the bed as they stare at the pair of blue eyes that was staring at them too."My goodness Mike! What are you doing here?" Olima asked in surprise and had totally forgotten that her two kids usually comes to her room every morning to wake her up early in the morning and she didn't usually lock up her room door too..Mike didn't responded, as he sat on the bed beside Olima on her left side and staring intently and suspiciously at Justin's face, as Mike hadn't seen Justin before, and seeing him for the first time, The little boy was wondering who Justin is?.The bedroom door pushed open again and Henry also walked into the bedroom as he wore similar white pyjamas like Mike's own.."Mom!" Henry exclaimed in shocked too as he walked i
Justin replied, "No, I am not... I am not angry with you. I am happy to see you and to be a father, and meet with you again. If there is anyone I should be angry with, Is my mother and not you."Olima frowned and Justin told her, "You shouldn't be feeling any pity for my mother, she doesn't want our happiness.""No, don't tell me that. She's your mom, she carried you for nine months and raised you all by herself. So you shouldn't be mad at her, She would have her reason, I don't know..""Hmm, You are kind" Justin smiled and walked up to meet Olima.He pulled her into a hug again to his chest as she was barely reaching his shoulder height.He said, "I know that is because you're a mother now that's why you're advising me not to be angry with my mother, but is alright, I won't, so long she doesn't come in between us again."Olima frowned a little knowing that Justin's mother didn't truly like her.Justin kissed her cheeks and said, "I do not hate my mom. I am just angry about everything.
Olima feels guilty and not being able to hear that Justin is there. She fears that he might also want to sleep there at her gate.She finally told her security man, "Is okay, Let me go out to see him. Or no, Just let him inside."Olima was worried that someone else who knew her might go out to inform Justin's mother and if truly he was the one, then there was no how he wouldn't have Jesse with him..The security man went outside to meet Justin.Justin looked at the man as he was typing on his phone and chatting with a client.The security man was older than Justin and probably Jesse's age group.He said to Justin, "Madam ask you to come in and see her.".."She has? I knew she was lying to you before., thank you "Justin stepped into the compound and saw Olima standing there in the center of the compound she stared away to her garage not wanting to stare at him as he walked up to meet her...Justin could see that she looked very maturely like a married woman.Even as the night sky had f
Olima was restless after she ran into her sitting room.She has a very strong feeling that the tall dark man that she saw earlier was Justin Robert."How is he the one that's living in the next compound? Justin? Are you sure he is the one?." Olima was worried as she knew that if truly that man that she saw was Justin, then she would be in trouble as he would find out the whole truth about her."What am I going to do now?" Olima had sent her two kids away to go and meet with Lady Eve downstairs, and though her two sons didn't want to leave her side, she had to call on their nanny to come and carry them away.Olima heard the loud knocking sound on her house gate at first, and with each passing second, she knew that the tall man was already at her house gate to confirm his suspicions and he was Justin too"Oh! What am I going to do now? Should I send Lady Eve to go and pretend that she's me and attended to him on my behalf? But Lady Eve is a black woman. Should I send Amara? But Amara i
Justin was stunned as he was standing outside in his garage and speaking to Jesse. He wanted to leave for his new company, which he had recently built, as his company was a fine art company, where he decided to try out his drawing skills and also meet with other top fine artists that were in their city.He was more into entertainment and though he still hadn't forgotten about Olima and wished to meet with her someday, no matter how many times he had gone to her company, and hired a spy to know when she secretly arrived.He was told that she hadn't visited the company for a long time now.Justin hasn't given up hope. He focused on his business and warned his mother never to speak to him about marriage and that she should adopt a grandson if she needed one.He stopped going home, after seeing that his mother wasn't yet ready to listen to him.She called him and told him that she would visit him, but he told her not to, to avoid them getting any further problems.His mother wouldn't stop
