Chapter 18Gina’s POV“Get to your room this minute, go.” I raised my voice at them and their countenance changed into sadness.I really didn’t mean to yell at my cute kids but I wanted them to give up the trip already, I don’t want them to go to Florida, it is for their good, If they need a father badly, I can remarry, maybe I should go on some date with some guys and find someone, what am I even saying, I don’t have time for that.I took a bottle of wine from the fridge and locked myself in my room drinking directly from the bottle. I plan to get drunk and forget about the pain I am feeling right now.The next morning I woke up feeling so tired, it’s the weekend so I will be spending time at home with my kids, I am sure they are going to love it.I stepped out of my room after having a cool bath to prepare breakfast for them but I noticed they were not out yet.I knocked at their room and they refused to answer me, I tried to open the door but it was locked, “My cuties, open the do
Chapter 19Gina’s POV“Kids don’t go, when do we start arranging our things to travel down to Florida?” They all stopped and Theresa who always got the gut of her father said to me, “Mom are you trying to buy yourself more time so we could eat with you? It’s not working Mom.”“I am not playing with you guys at all, I pinky swear kids.” I let out a smile with my finger out and Teddy rushed to jump on my body and kissed my cheek saying, “Mom, you are the best, I love you.”“I love you too, son.”“We love you so much, mom.” The rest kids said clingy to me and I felt happy again.“So are we going to have dinner together now?” I asked.“Yes, Mom and we all will assist you in the kitchen this time around.”“That’s good to hear but before then let's visit the supermarket to get a few things,” I said to them and they were excited about it.“I want ice cream mom.” Teddy said and I caressed his hair saying, “That’s not a problem at all, who else wants ice cream?”“Me..” They all raised their h
Chapter 20Gina’s POV“Grandpa Leo they said died seven years ago.”“WHAT??” Hot tears left my eyes immediately and I couldn’t breathe.“I am so sorry, assuming you told me you wanted to see Sir Leo Williams, I could have told you about it, it was all over the news seven years ago, are you close to him?” She added.“He is the only family I have after my parents died in an accident.”“It took you seven whole years to find out, so sorry for the loss.”“Take me to any place to cool off,” I said to her and she nodded her head.While she was driving I remembered the past when I came in newly, and after high school, I became an orphan. I cried at the funeral when everyone came to pay their last respect to my family and there was Grandpa Leo, he never left, he sat down with me even if I didn’t talk to him.“Hey little one, accept my condolences, your parents are the nicest people I have worked with you know, too bad death claimed them but I promise you I will be your family from today.”“Yo
Chapter 21*Seven Years Earlier*Liam’s POV“Won’t you regret it, I mean she is kind and loving, couples usually have their ups and downs but divorcing each other is not the way out and I don’t want you to make a mistake that will turn out to regret tomorrow.”“I will not regret it and my decision will never end up as a mistake, you can go,” I replied coldly and she left. I will never regret letting her go, never. The next day I had a little talk with Mariam, “So I would let you stay with me for some time and when you get better you can leave, I will give you any amount you need, case close.” I said to her with no smile at all.“You must be joking right? You slept with me, got me pregnant and I lost my baby because you couldn’t protect me from that bitch and now you are telling me to get better and leave? You ruined me, Liam.” She added and I got pissed.“Okay, what exactly do you want? Name what you so desire and I will make it happen.”“It’s very simple, marry me if you truly want
Chapter 22 Liam’s POV “Daniel, let’s take him to the hospital, Grandpa please hold on tight, I can’t lose you now please.” The other securities joined Daniel to carry Grandpa to the car. “Babe, let me come with you.” I glared at her with fury, “I am not your babe and all this is your fault.” A few moments later we were already at the hospital and the doctor had to take over immediately. “Did you and Grandpa fight?” Daniel threw the question at me. “Yes we did, he found out about the divorce.” “I knew this would happen, I just hope nothing happens to Grandpa because if anything happens to him, you are the one to be blamed.” He said walking away and I hit the wall angrily. Grandpa please don’t die, who will call me meathead, spoilt brat and all those names hum? I need you grandpa, you are the only one I have who truly understands me. “Mr Liam.” The doctor called. “Yes doctor, how is my grandpa? Hope he is okay?” I asked with a panicking voice. “Yes he is fine now and he is re
Chapter 23Liam’s POV“I saw the destination she was heading to when she left, Teresi Hotel.”I finally got some hope, “Mrs Sarah, are you certain about what you saw?” I asked again just to be sure.“Yes, Master Liam.”“Okay good, thank you for the information, I will go there right away.”“Okay sir, do you need me to do any task for you?”“Not at all, just continue with the house duties,” I said to her and she took her leave immediately.I texted Daniel saying I knew where Gina was at the moment and he replied, “Don’t be harsh with words when you see her okay, if not she will not come with you.” He warned.“Oh stop lecturing me, it’s her duty to come afterall Grandpa was like family to her so she has to be there.”“You are a nutjob .” He replied and sent some crazy emoji, now who is the nutjob here, I scoff.“Going somewhere?” I heard Mariam’s voice.“Yes I am and can you stop coming to my room without you knocking?”“I am sorry but you have to be used to it you know, anyway where ar
Chapter 24Liam’s POV“Okay but let me get one thing straight, are you searching for Gina because Grandpa needs to see her or do you miss her and need her as well?”“Do what I asked you to do,” I replied walking away.* I waited for a response about the whereabouts of Gina and I was not getting anything at all. I never knew she would be this hard to get and my grandpa is refusing to even eat his food, he keeps saying he wants to see Gina.What am I going to do now? This is not helping at all. I got a call from Daniel and he sounded like someone crying over the phone, “Daniel did you find her?”“No, we are still looking for her.”“Okay but why are you sounding bittered, what is going on.”“Liam, I am so sorry, you need to be strong.”I hope it’s not what I am thinking at all, “Talk to me what is going on? You know what save it, I am coming to the hospital now.” I ended the call and rushed out wearing my house slippers with my pyjamas.I arrived at the hospital and I saw Mariam crying
Chapter 25Liam’s POVI didn’t know the time I slept off in Gina’s room with the letter in my hands and I dreamt about her again.I woke up and got out of the room with the diary walking directly to my room to have my bath and leave for the office, I know Mariam was very much asleep.I got ready to leave the house when I opened some pages in the diary where I saw Gina write about the time she had to wake up very early to make sure she prepared food for me before going to work so I wouldn’t go on an empty stomach. How can someone read me like a book this way? I’m impressed.I stepped out and turned to the dining room, “Liam, breakfast is ready, have some before going to work.”I walked to the dining and she started acting too kind and I yelled hitting the table, “Are you crazy? Can’t I have a peaceful dinner without you ruining it? Do I look like a kid to you?”“I am sorry, I am just trying..”“Quiet, I don’t want you to try at all, stop trying and let me be, you disgust me a lot, I th
