Meanwhile, Hannah had gotten to the company. She parked her car at the underground parking lot before climbing out of the car.

She walked inside the company and went straight to her office. Immediately she entered her office, she switched on her computer and began work immediately.

It wasn’t quite long when a call came in on the landline. She answered the phone and a man’s voice rang from the other side of the phone.

“The board meeting is starting in the next three minutes, I want you to be there now” Brandon stated and the call ended.

Hannah paused for some seconds, she didn’t know there would be a board meeting. There weren’t supposed to be any meetings today, so why the hell is Brandon holding a meeting? Hannah wondered as she stood up, picked up her phone, and walked towards the board room.

Immediately she entered, there were just two people inside the room. The head of the financial team, Mrs Smith, and the head of the committee, Mr Brown.

Immediately Mrs Smith saw Hannah, she r

    Brandon grabbed her hands at once. She paused and then turned to him before looking away. “Let go of me,” Hannah said and Brandon sighed and walked towards her standing in front of her. “I didn’t mean to blame you or raise my voice at you. It wasn’t your fault. I only reacted the way I did because something similar had happened in the past. I signed off some of those machines to the field not knowing it was having fault, then it blew up and killed everyone on the field, including my brother, Lucas” Brandon said and Hannah opened her mouth slightly. “You had a brother” Hannah asked and Brandon nodded in response, trying his best not to look emotional. “I didn’t know you had a brother, no one has spoken about him before,” Hannah who was surprised said out loud. “No one talked about him because of the way he died,” Brandon said and Hannah sighed softly, while she moved away from him.“I’ll make some calls and……”“It’s fine, I already asked them to take the machines to the warehous

She sighed and then stood for some seconds, just then she saw David sitting at the corner of the school, looking sad. She walked towards him. “David” Hannah called and the little boy raised his head and stared at Hannah in surprise. “Hello, ma’am. Are you looking for the octuplets because their daddy came to pick them up just now” David said and Hannah smiled at her. “I know. Why are you sitting here all alone?” Hannah asked as she sat beside him.“I am waiting for my grandma to come to pick me up,” David said and Hannah nodded as she stared at the kids. The kid didn’t look happy at all.Just then Hannah saw Rosa’s car drive inside the school compound.She then brought out a card that had her number written on it and gave it to David.“Anytime you need my help or someone to talk to, you c

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   They are my kids

    Hannah had just gotten home thinking Brandon was at home with the kids but to her surprise, they weren’t at home. She wondered where Brandon had taken them. She brought out her phone and dialed Brandon’s number but he didn’t pick up. On second thought, she wasn’t worried. She knew the kids were safe with Brandon, probably because she trusted him. Why would I even trust him? Hannah!! You need not trust anybody!! She thought and just then the front door burst open.Hannah thought it was Brandon and the kids but it wasn’t them. It was Jessica instead. She looked so sad as she walked inside the house.“Hey, are you alright?” Hannah asked and Jessica sighed and went to sit on the couch, beside Hannah. “Yeah,” she said as she stared into nothing and Hannah nodded. They were both quiet as no one spoke.“She said it was an accident, she slipped and fell on the fireplace,” Jessica said, breaking the silence between them.“Oh, I hope she’s okay now?” Hannah asked “I believe she will,” Jessi

    Hannah walked inside the children’s room and helped them take their baths, after which she helped them put on their nightwear and tucked them in their beds. “Mommy, we had so much fun today, you can come with us when next we go out,” Audrey said and Hannah nodded.Just then the door to the door opened and Brandon walked in. Hannah turned to him and wondered what he was doing in their room.“Mommy, the school event is tomorrow,” Aubrey said and Hannah bit her lips as she had already forgotten. She didn’t even get the matching clothes, for her and Brandon.“Oh, sure honey but is it compulsory I and your daddy wear matching clothes, because I didn’t get any clothes for us” Hannah said “Daddy already got it when we went shopping,” Jamie said and Hannah nodded in response.“Ok now go to sleep,” Hannah said as she stood up from where she was sitting.“Hey sweethearts, sweet dreams,” Brandon said as he kissed the kids on their forehead. And it didn’t take long, they closed their eyes and dr

    "Now I can have a good night sleep,” Brandon said with a smile on his face.Meanwhile, Hannah angrily lifted her head to glare at him. “This man derives so much pleasure in taking advantage of me,” Hannah thought wondering what Brandon was always thinking because he seems to always have dirty thoughts on his mind."Just leave!" She shoved him hard and turned around to walk into her room.Thereafter, she slammed the door shut after her.At that moment, her heart started beating uncontrollably and she could still taste him on her lips.However, she couldn't understand her feelings. What's going on with me?! I don't seem to despise it and surprisingly it feels totally enjoyable?!Hannah seemed to be in a trance and she quickly forced herself to eliminate the thoughts in her mind. After that, she removed her clothes and went to take a shower.While she was in the shower, all she could think about was Brandon. “Oh god! What is wrong with me” she thought to herself.

    Hannah and Brandon turned only to see eight little cute innocent eyes staring at them. Hannah felt her cheeks flush in embarrassment.“Mommy and I will go get dressed, so we can all go to the school party together,” Brandon said with a smile on his face. Hannah then stood up and walked upstairs to her room. Immediately, she left, Brandon had asked the maid to clear the table while he went to give Hannah the clothes he bought for her yesterday. Hannah, who had entered her room, closed the door and put her hands on her chest. She felt her cheeks turn red immediately at the thought of what Brandon had just done. While the children were watching them, she wondered what the kids were thinking while staring at them as she didn't want to give them the wrong impression.She wondered why Brandon was acting this way towards her and always teasing her. Can't he just let me be? She thought as she sat on the bed and just then the door opened revealing Brandon, he held a shopping bag in his han

    “Mommy, Daddy, you both look so perfect” The kid's lips curled into a wide smile. They were so happy.If there was anything Hannah needed in this world it was for her kids to be happy. “Let’s go, you don’t want to be late,” Hannah said and the kids nodded in response before rushing outside to the car. Hannah then turned to Brandon who kept staring at her. “I’m only doing this for my kids,” Hannah said and with that, she walked away from him. After they had gotten to the school, there were a lot of parents and children in the school. The kids rushed out of the car and went to their classes. Hannah and Brandon alighted the car. The moment they came out of the car, all eyes were on them. “Oh my god! Is that the octuplet's parents?” One of the teachers asked. “They look so cute together. No wonder the octuplets are so fine” Another teacher said “They look so much like a power couple,” another teacher said while smiling.“Of course, they are a power couple, they are so rich. That is

    A Black car came to a stop in front of the Colby’s Mansion. The kids alighted the car, same as Hannah and Brandon. Throughout the ride, Hannah didn’t say a word. It was only Brandon and the kids who kept talking about the event. They all walked inside the house and Brandon asked the kids to go to their room. They nodded obediently and went to their room. Hannah was about to leave and Brandon turned to her. “We need to talk,” he said and Hannah turned to him, staring at him with anger written all over her face. She hated the fact that Brandon had stopped her from killing Rosa. “Why would you do that? Why would you get into a fight?” Brandon asked and Hannah scoffed and was about walking away when Brandon spoke. “Don’t you dare walk out on me” he said and Hannah rolled her eyes and turned to him. “What are you gonna do if I walk away?” Hannah asked and Brandon stared at the petite woman. She was challenging him.“Try me and see,” Brandon said and Hannah walked away from him and we

    Lucas had left the room to make some calls, leaving Hannah and Teresa alone in the dimly lit space. The air between them was thick with unspoken thoughts, with grief and frustration too heavy to voice.Teresa watched Hannah closely. She looked hollow—her eyes distant, her shoulders sagging under a weight no one could carry for her.“You okay?” Teresa finally asked.Hannah blinked and turned her head, forcing a weak smile. “Yeah.”Teresa hummed in response, clearly unconvinced. She reached into her pocket, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it with a practiced ease. Smoke curled in the air between them.“Do you smoke?” she asked, offering one toward Hannah.Hannah shook her head. “No. I never have.”Teresa chuckled, taking a long drag before exhaling. “Figures.”Silence stretched between them, but it wasn’t uncomfortable. It was the silence of two women who understood each other—different, yet bound by shared pain.“My mother-in-law used to hate me too,” Teresa murmured suddenly, he

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   Ghost of the past

    Teresa sat in the back of a dimly lit bar, the scent of cigarette smoke and aged whiskey thick in the air. The place was quiet, the kind of underground haunt where no one asked questions, where secrets were currency, and where a person could disappear if they weren’t careful.She checked the time on her phone. Her contact was late.Across the table, Hannah fidgeted with the glass of water in front of her, her expression distant, lost in thoughts she wasn’t ready to speak out loud. Lucas sat beside her, his gaze locked on the entrance, his tension palpable.When the door finally creaked open, Teresa’s eyes narrowed as a tall, wiry man entered, his leather jacket scuffed and his face shadowed with stubble. He scanned the room before spotting her and sauntering over.“You’re late, Marco,” Teresa said, her voice edged with impatience.The man—Marco Ruiz—grinned as he slid into the seat across from her. “Good to see you too, Provenzano. You know how it is—hard to stay alive in this busines

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   The hunt for Brandon

    Hannah stood in the dimly lit warehouse, her fingers clenched into fists at her sides. The stale scent of dust and oil filled the air, mingling with the cold fear settling deep in her stomach. The warehouse was one of many they had searched in the last twenty-four hours, but this one felt different. The moment she stepped inside, a weird sensation crawled over her skin, like a presence lingering just out of sight.Lucas moved beside her, scanning the rows of crates stacked high against the walls. His jaw was tight, his frustration barely concealed beneath his calm exterior. Teresa stood a few steps ahead, gun in hand, her eyes sharp as she surveyed their surroundings. They had all hoped—desperately—that this search would yield something more than dead ends and half-truths. But as the minutes ticked by, that hope was slipping.Brandon had vanished without a trace.Every lead they had followed led to nothing. Every whisper, every clue, every trail had been a carefully crafted illus

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   The Vanishing Ghost - Brandon is gone!

    The night was thick with silence, the kind that felt like a living, breathing thing, pressing in on them as they stood at the edge of the abandoned docks. The stench of salt and rust filled the air, mixing with something darker—the unmistakable scent of blood.Teresa’s fingers curled around the handle of her gun as she scanned the area, her pulse drumming hard against her ribs. Her father was dead. That chapter of her life was over. But this? This wasn’t over. Not until she had him.Not until she had Brandon and brought him back to his family.“We should’ve heard something by now,” Hannah whispered, her voice tight with restrained panic.Teresa didn’t answer. She was thinking the same thing.The lead had been solid. Brandon had been held here—multiple sources confirmed it. The docks had been his prison. But as they stood here, surrounded by crates and shadows, the truth settled like ice in her veins.Brandon wasn’t here.And the blood on the floor was still fresh.Teresa crouched do

    Teresa barely had a second to react before the door to her office swung open. The moment her eyes landed on the man standing there, a cold shiver ran down her spine. Her father.Bernardo Provenzano. The man she had once idolized. The man she had spent her entire life trying to please.And now, the man she had just betrayed.He stepped inside with a slow, deliberate pace, shutting the door behind him. The soft click of the lock sent her heart into overdrive.“Oh, my little princess,” he murmured, his voice filled with mock tenderness. But his eyes… they were filled with nothing but hatred.Teresa’s hands gripped the arms of her chair, knuckles turning white. Fear slithered through her veins, but she refused to let it show.“How disappointing,” he continued, shaking his head as if she were a child who had misbehaved. “I thought you were different. Better. Not like your mother.”Teresa inhaled sharply.His mother.For years, she had believed the lie—that her mother had been killed by a r

    The beeping of machines was the only sound filling the hospital room. Jessica lay on the hospital bed, her skin deathly pale, her chest barely rising under the weight of the oxygen mask secured over her face. Wires and tubes connected her to the machines, keeping her alive, but just barely.Hannah stood frozen in the doorway, unable to move. The doctor’s words still rang in her ears, cutting deeper than any wound ever could.“She has a five percent chance of survival,” the doctor had said, his voice clinical, detached. “She lost too much blood, and the delay in medical care worsened her condition. We’re doing everything we can, but you need to prepare for the worst.”The worst.Hannah clenched her fists, nails digging into her palms. This was her fault. If she hadn’t suggested they escape… if she had just listened, just stayed put, Jessica wouldn’t be lying here, fighting for her life.And Brandon…A fresh wave of pain hit her. He was gone. Taken. She had watched him surrender himsel

    The river had given them a chance, but it hadn’t given them freedom.Brandon collapsed onto the muddy shore, gasping for air. His limbs ached from the relentless current, but he didn’t have time to recover. Jessica.Lucas dragged her up the embankment, his breathing ragged. She was completely unconscious now, her body limp in his arms. The river had sapped whatever strength she had left. Her wound was bad—too bad. If they didn’t get her help soon…No. He couldn’t think like that.“Teresa,” Brandon barked, snapping back into survival mode. “Where’s the nearest hospital?”Teresa, still soaking wet, flipped open her laptop with shaking hands. Water dripped onto the screen, but she didn’t stop. “There’s one about six miles south,” she said breathlessly. “But there’s a problem.”Brandon exhaled sharply. “There’s always a problem.”Teresa gave him a grim look. “Bernardo’s men will have every major road blocked. They’re already watching the airspace. If we head to that hospital, they’ll find

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   The Final stand

    The cave was damp and cold, the scent of moss and river water clinging to the air. Shadows stretched across the rocky walls, their flickering shapes cast by the distant glow of searchlights cutting through the trees outside. They had barely made it out alive.But they weren’t safe.Brandon pressed his back against the jagged rock, listening. Boots crunched against gravel just beyond the entrance. The soldiers were closing in. They had minutes—maybe seconds—before the cave was compromised.Lucas sat against the far wall, pressing his hand against Jessica’s wound. She was slipping fast, her skin pale, her lips trembling.“I can stop the bleeding, but not for long,” Teresa said, her voice tight with urgency. “But she needs real help, Brandon.”Brandon looked at Jessica’s barely conscious form, then at Hannah, who was up beside Teresa, shaking from the cold,she looked so pale. He had promised to protect her. He had promised to protect all of them.He clenched his fists. Promises meant not

    The night was supposed to be theirs. They had escaped, survived impossible odds, and left Bernardo bleeding on the cold ground. But fate had other plans.They wondered how come he was alive. They had witnessed him go on his knees, blood all over him.The deafening roar of helicopter blades grew louder, sending shockwaves through Brandon’s chest. The floodlights cut through the dense trees, slicing through the shadows that had once been their cover. The tracker beneath the seat blinked like a taunting heartbeat—steady, unrelenting, and damning.Teresa’s fingers flew over her laptop, her breath ragged. “I need time,” she muttered, panic lacing her voice.“We don’t have time,” Lucas growled, yanking a rifle from the back. “They’re here.”Jessica shifted, barely conscious, her breathing uneven. Hannah took a deep breathe while having a second thoughts.Maybe she should just surrender herself to Bernardo and all this would be over. But Brandon here would rather die than watch her go back
