2024-10-29 19:42:56Raymond stepped out of the car, he reached out his hand to help the little woman with him to get out. She was dressed in a knee level blue gown with different drawings of flowers which made her cute and beautiful. Raymond as usual was dressed in a navy blue suit. Morris also got down from the car but he didn't follow them inside the big mansion.
An elderly beautiful woman walked out to meet them at the door, she was smiling so beautifully. This was the first time her grandson brought a woman home and a beautiful one at that. She hugged her grandson "little Ray, it's been so long" she smiled at the girl beside him "how are you my darling."Felicity smiled shyly before mumbling "I'm fine."Raymond frowned when his grandmother called him little Ray but he can't shun her in Felicity's presence so he decided to swallow it at the moment "how are you grandma?""Oh I'm fine" Hana waved him off as she led them inside where Desmond was already waiting, his eyes shun when he noticeRelated chapters

Felicity's eyes narrowed and she looked down immediately, seeing her reaction, Hana guessed what could have happened and looked at Raymond who confirmed her thoughts "oh my darling. I am so sorry about that, I didn't know" Hana apologized immediately."It's okay. You wouldn't have known if I didn't tell you. They died when I was six years old and aunty Katy raised me all alone that's why I will do anything to make her happy.""Aw, so sorry dear. I will like to meet this your aunty Katy" Hana said.Felicity nodded "okay, I will tell her.""Sure do okay?" Hana smiled."Which school did you attend Felicity?" Desmond asked."I didn't go to school" she answered and Desmond and Hana looked at each other shocked "aunty Katy hired a tutor to teach me at home" Felicity continued "although she didn't tell me but I heard from other people that I'm sick and can't go to school like every other kids.""You are sick? What type of sickness my dear?" Hana asked.Felicity

Felicity smiled happily "thank you grandpa" she said and Desmond felt like he was in cloud nine being called grandpa from such a beautiful girl.Hana looked sad as she looked at Felicity again "you have called him grandpa twice now but not me."Felicity looked at her sad face and patted her head full of white hair gently like a child "don't cry, I will you grandma as many times as you want, don't cry okay. Grandma, grandma, grandma, grandma, see? I called you four times but I only called him grandpa twice."Hana laughed, oh she is going to love this girl to the moon "thank you my darling" she kissed Felicity's hand that had been patting her head.Desmond sucked "I'm jealous now."Felicity looked at him "don't be grandpa. I will be here for both of you okay?"Desmond smiled when he heard her call him grandpa again while Raymond rolled his eyes while watching his grandparents act like a child with her, he should have known better, of course they will like her."So

Katherine looked at Felicity who was dressed in a sweet ball wedding gown, her eyes teared up and she dabbed at her eyes with her handkerchief gently to avoid ruining her makeup. Felicity stared at herself in the mirror and was stunned to see the beautiful... Woman."She looks so beautiful" Mercy commented and Katherine nodded with a sniff."She really is" she agreed. The door opened and a young girl about Felicity's age entered, she was dressed in a long peach colored gown, she has a dark brown hair and light brown eyes."The car is here" she said and looked at Felicity "my God Feli, you look...angelic" she complimented."Thank you Grace. You helped achieved it by choosing this gown" Felicity smiled before she looked at her aunt with a frown "aunty Katy, I still can't walk in these" she pointed at her heels and the three ladies chuckled."Come on my dear, just like you have been practicing. It aren't so hard" Katherine smiled and made her sit down before putting the

Felicity was so happy that she opened the car door and got down, she picked her gown in her hands and started running towards the church. Katherine and Mercy's car just arrived and she saw Felicity running to the church, she jumped down from the car immediately "Felicity!" But she didn't hear her, she looked to see Grace just standing without doing anything "Grace stop her!"Grace seemed to be called into presence and she shouted to Felicity "wait Felicity, stop running" due to being a little bit closer to her, Felicity heard her and stopped, she turned around and saw Katherine running towards her and she ran to her."Aunty Katy" she shouted as she ran to Katherine, her face sparkling with her joy, she looked so angelic running with her wedding gown. Her ankle twisted due to her heels and she wobbled, thankfully, Katherine was already close to her and so she caught her. Even though Felicity almost fell, it didn't change her mood "aunty Katy look, little Ray made my wish come t

Katherine smiled "thank you Mrs. Baldwin, I couldn't ask for anything more.""Please, call me Hana. Felicity is like a granddaughter to me now so I have to make sure she is happy.""Thank you so much Hana.""You are welcome" Hana said and squeezed Felicity's hand, she smiled lovingly to her before retreating to stand beside her husband. Katherine wiped away Felicity's tears and together, they all took a picture."Em Felicity, aren't you forgetting something?" Grace asked as her eyes darted to Raymond shyly.Felicity grasped her hand and dragged her to Raymond "little Ray, meet Grace, my best friend."Raymond frowned when she addressed him as little Ray but decided not to shun her in the presence of her friend, he smiled and shook Grace's hand "nice to meet you Grace, she has told me a lot about you."Grace darted her eyelids shyly and she chuckled in a flirting manner "too bad she never said a word about you to me but I'm happy she let you know of me" she

Felicity stepped out of the car, she stared with her eyes wild opened at the big house in front of her. She couldn't believe that this is little Ray's house and it's also going to be her home from now on. She looked at Raymond who was beside her now, he looked tired and a little bit tipsy since he received a lot of toast from people at the reception party "you live here?""Uh huh" Raymond replied with a nod, he loosened up his tie and removed his suit jacket, he folded it on his arm before looking at her "you want to go in or you want to stay here?""I want to go in" she rushed to answer, she had always been afraid of the dark and it's so dark and late now. Raymond nodded and started walking inside while felicity followed behind. They should have been home a long time ago but Raymond chose to chat with friends since he wouldn't be having a wedding night and he can't call someone over since it was his wedding night. He groaned softly as he stepped into the house and searched fo

Raymond just finished taking a shower and laid on the bed to finally close his eyes when he heard a heart wrenching scream, he jumped up from the bed immediately and rushed out through the door. He threw opened Felicity's room door but he couldn't see her in the room "Felicity?" He called but all he could hear where silent sobs coming from the bathroom, he walked over in quick strides and threw open the door, Felicity looked up then and their eyes met, there were tears in her eyes and he felt his heart ache "what is it?""Hot, it's too hot" she replied while shaking in tears.Raymond looked at the hot tap and sighed "it's okay, just turn off the tap.""I don't know which one and everywhere is slippery, can you help me? I feel like my body is going to peel from the hotness."Raymond pinched the bridge of his nose "fine" he saw all the water and foams on the floor and knew he had to walk carefully, he got to the tap and leaned forward to turn on the tap but his sli

Raymond stepped out of the bathroom, he dried his body with a towel and reached up to dry his hair when his door was thrown open. He used the towel to cover his lower part immediately as he glared at the door to see the intruder.Felicity walked over to the bed and sat down not noticing the murderous way the man in the room was looking at her, "good morning little Ray" she beamed but there was a tinge of shyness to her normal cheerful ways which Raymond didn't fail to notice and he knew the reason but he is just not in the mood to think about that now."Felicity, what are you doing here?" He asked as he tried to wrap the towel round his waist without revealing his nakedness to her. The reason he is fighting against that? He had no idea. He has always been a man who appreciates his body and don't fail to use any opportunity to show off in front of a woman, so he can't understand why he felt the urge of covering himself in her presence."I'm I no longer welcomed in your

Three months later, Raymond pulled over in the driveway, he got down just as the door was opened and two children ran out shouting, "daddy!"He squatted and opened his arms for them and they slammed into him, he kissed both their cheeks, "how are you?""I'm fine" they both said excitedly."So, are you ready for a fun day?" He asked and they nodded vigorously. He smiled and kissed their head each. He looked up at the lady who was watching them, at his gaze, she turned and shut the door before approaching them."Now that we are set, let's give some rules, one, no running off, stay close where I can see you, two, no rough play and three, don't lose each other.

Desmond rang the bell and the door was answered by Mercy.She was surprised to see them and she doesn't know if she should let them in or not, but at the end, she smiled and shifted aside for them to enter, "please come in."They walked in to first hear the voice of a little girl whining, "you said you will give me your cake.""You eat too much, very soon you will become fat" a little boy's voice reprimanded her."Alright hush you two, you mustn't fight all the time" a lady's voice was heard, they had made their way to the living room then to see the kids surrounding a woman who was placing two plates of c

Darryl tossed and turned on his bed, he couldn't get himself to sleep. He kept thinking of the gray eyes he saw today, the gray eyes that looked so much like his own. He has never been attracted to all those men that wants to see his mom like he was to the one he saw today. He wants to see him again. And after hearing his mom and aunt fight, he knew his instinct is right, that man is his father. Even though neither his aunt nor his nanny wanted to admit it, but he knew.He climbed out of his bed and approached his sister own, he gently climbed into it and gazed at her sleeping face, after what felt like minutes passed, he gently tapped her shoulder, "Sofie, wake up Sofie.""Mm, leave me alone" she pushed his hand away and flipped on the bed."Come on Sofie wake up, I need to tell you something.""Tell me tomorrow" she mumbled.Darryl pouted, "if you wake up, I will give you my cake in the morning."Sofia's eyes snapped open immediately, "you will give me your cake?

Katherine entered the house to see Felicity standing beside the sofa with her arms crossed on her chest, she sighed and knew she would be getting some questioning, "little Lee.""Don't call me that!" Felicity warned.Katherine heaved a sigh, "Felicity, I understand you are angry but, this is expected. You can't hide them forever.""I don't want him to know about them. For goodness sake aunt Katy, I don't want to have anything to do with him in my life again.""But you know that's not possible. No matter how bad you want to take him out of your life, you can't. As long as you still have the children, he is tied to you with them.""Not if he doesn't know about them. I want him out of my life and out of theirs. He doesn't deserve to be with them, he doesn't deserve to have them!""That's like saying it's not his blood that runs in their veins.""If I say it's not, its not."Katherine sighed, "Felicity...""Aunty Katy please" she raised her hand to stop her, "

Felicity and Katherine looked at each other before looking at him again, "why would you say that?" Katherine asked."Because I want to see my daddy. All my friends in school use to talk about how their daddy thought them how to throw ball and builds snowmen with them. I want my daddy to teach me too and build snowmen with me" as if that wasn't enough, he looked at his little sister, "don't you want to meet daddy Sofie?"The little glutton sitting on her Mommy's lap immediately nodded continuously, "yes, I want to meet daddy. Daddy will take me to amusement park and buy me ice cream and cake."Darryl rolled his eyes, "glutton, all you think about is food.""Mom, Darryl called me glutton again" she whined."Darryl, don't call your sister glutton again" Felicity looked at her daughter "but mommy use to take you to amusement park and buy you cake and ice cream.""Yes but daddy will carry me on his shoulder and spin.

Desmond shouted "what is the nonsense I hear?"Raymond sighed, if his grandfather called him Raymond, then he must be really angry with him, "grandpa, I don't know what you are talking about.""What nonsense!" Desmond slammed his hand on the table causing everyone to jump including Raymond, "don't you dare act ignorant with me" he warned."Grandpa, why don't you calm down and let's talk in my office. Maybe you can tell me what have you infuriated this much.""Don't tell me to calm down. How could you break your grandmother's heart like this?"Raymond need no soothsayer to tell him wha

Raymond lifted his glass to his lips again, "bottom's up" he murmured and down his throat it all went. He dropped the glass with a thud on the table before picking up his whisky to fill it up again.Ha, he can't believe this, he has suddenly become a drunkard and he knows not the reason.Oh shit, he knows the reason, he just doesn't want to admit it.
