Chapter 6

Meanwhile, Rhoda and Jeff's mom, Rosa, are seen sitting together in Mikealson’s mansion, laughing.  They looked so happy.

“I'm glad I finally got rid of Hannah for good. My son just wouldn't want to leave her alone. Even though he knows she's cursed and she eats her kids, that's why all the children she gave birth to died. Witch like her. Who knew she was going to end up being barren” Rosa said in a disgusting tone making Rhoda smile. 

Rosa knew she was the one behind what Hannah had gone through. Only she and the nurse she paid knew about what she has done.

“Hannah is cursed. She killed her mother when she was a child. That’s why she had no relative or family members” Rhoda said and Rosa opened her eyes wide.

“Oh my goodness!! I knew it!! She killed her mother and she lied she had cancer and died. I wonder where Jeff picked her from. I’m glad she’s gone for good, now you can be my daughter in law. And I’m glad you gonna give me an heir, finally “ Rosa muttered and Rhoda giggled happily and just then she frowned. 

“Hey, what’s wrong? Why are you frowning? Aren’t you happy she’s out of our lives for good?” Rosa asked 

“No no, of course I’m happy. It’s just that Jeff still seems to care about her. He’s out there searching for her” Rhoda said with a sad face. 

“It’s up to you not to make him forget about Hannah for good. You seduced him in the first place, so I’m sure you know what to do next. I’ll do my part” Rosa said and Rhoda smiled. 

She stared around and noticed it was only she and Rosa in the room and the maids who were busy passing by. 

“Oh, my stomach , it hurts!” Rhoda yelled and Rosa rushed towards her. 

“Oh my goodness!! Someone call the doctor and help me take her upstairs“ Rosa yelled and the maids came running in. 

They helped carry Rhoda to Jeff’s room upstairs. Rosa quickly picked up her phone and called Jeff.

“Hello Jeff, Rhoda came to find you at home today, she suddenly started having an abdominal pain. Im scared she’s going to loose her baby” Rosa said sounding so tensed. 

“I’ll be there in a jiffy “ Jeff said and ended the call immediately.

Rosa smiled and went upstairs to Jeff’s room where she met Rhoda lying on the bed.

“I called him already, he’s on his way here” Rosa said and suddenly they heard Jeff’s voice from downstairs. 

“He’s here. This means he wasn’t far from home” Rosa said and Rhoda quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. 

Just then the door burst open revealing Jeff. 

“Mom, how’s she? How’s the baby? Have you called the doctor?” Jeff asked as he walked in. 

“Calm down son. I called the doctor, he just left not quite long. She and the baby is fine. The doctor said she’s just stressed and just needs enough rest and she will be fine” Rosa said and Jeff gave out a breath of relief. 

If there was one thing he didn’t want, he didn’t want Rhoda to loose the baby. All he wanted was just a child , it would make him the most happiest man on earth. 

He’s willing to do anything for Rhoda just to make sure she gives birth sound and safety.

“Have you found Hannah yet?” Rosa asked . She knew Jeff had left home to go find Hannah and she began to wonder if he had found her yet.

“No,  I tried looking for her but I don’t think she’s in Atlanta. I heard a woman came with a black car and took her away. I tried to find out the identity of this woman but I just couldn’t. I checked all the hospitals but she isn’t in anyone of them” Jeff said and Rosa sighed softly. 

“Then you should forget about her and focus on Rhoda. Besides she’s pregnant and she needs you by her side. You should take care of her and forget Hannah. You had wanted to get rid of her a long time ago now is finally the time” Rosa said and Jeff swallowed hard. 

He truly had wanted to get rid of Hannah . He wanted an heir but she just couldn’t give him an heir. The doctor had declared her barren, All he wanted was to divorce her and still give her fifty percent of the things he had. 

He knew Hannah had no one or any family to go to. He began to wonder where she is or maybe she’s probably dead. 

But on a second thought, he thinks everything is for the best. He should just get married to Rhoda and forget about Hannah. 

“Make arrangements for I and Rhoda’s wedding. I’m getting married to her” Jeff said and Rosa smiled. 

“That’s the son I raised” she thought as she stared at Jeff. She known Jeff to have anger issues and when he gets angry he can kill her even though she was his mother but there was one thing Rosa was so sure of, her son loves her so much and would do anything she tells him to. 

“I found this. Someone who saw the woman take Hannah said it fell from Hannah” Jeff said as he brought out a bracelet from his pocket and gave it to her mother.

His mother took the bracelet and starred at it disgustingly. She didn’t want anything to do with Hannah at all. 

Just then Jeff heard his phone ring and then walked out of the room.

Meanwhile, Rhoda who was lying on the bed pretending to be asleep, smiled inwardly, she’s finally going to be Jeff’s wife. She could not believe. She felt so happy that she had wanted to scream but she had to pretend she was asleep. 

Now, she’s finally going to enjoy all the riches and wealth Hannah had been enjoying all those years. 

She opened her eyes and stared at Rosa who was staring at the bracelet. 

“I’m going to dump this” Rosa said and Rhoda quickly took it from her. 

“No, I’ll keep it. This looks so expensive “ Rhoda said and Rosa rolled her eyes at her. 

“We better start making arrangements for your wedding”

***********

Hannah is seen walking down the stairs looking so beautiful. She had wore the gown Arianna had told her to wear.

Arianna who was sitting at the dinning table smiled as she saw how beautiful Hannah was looking. She truly look so much like her daughter, Cinderella. 

“You look beautiful Cinderella” Arianna said and Hannah smiled and sat on a vacant chair close to her.

“Thank you ma’am “ Hannah said and Arianna smiled. 

“I think it’s high time you start addressing me as mom” Arianna said and Hannah joined her lips together, she glanced at Arianna for some seconds and then nodded. 

“Thank you mom” she said and Arianna smiled. She just love this lady Hannah so much. She didn’t know why but she just love everything about her. 

Just then Arianna heard her phone vibrate. It was a text message from her personal investigator in Atlanta. She frowned as she read the message.

“Is everything alright?” Hannah asked as she noticed the look on her face.

“It’s Jeff, he’s getting married to Rhoda next tomorrow” Arianna said and Hannah blinked twice as she felt like a sharp knife has been pierced into her heart. 

Despite the fact that Jeff had ruined her life, she was supposed to hate him but truth is , she still love him. And she haven’t been gone for up to a week and he’s already planning his wedding with her best friend. 

Hannah felt so hurt. Arianna noticed the look on her face. She shouldn’t have told her about it, she could see Hannah was deeply hurt and it pained her heart. 

“You should forget about them for now. When the time comes you’ll get the revenge you ever wanted” Arianna said and placed her hands on top Hannah’s. 

Hannah smiled at her. 

“I’ll be attending a party tomorrow. Prominent men and women of New York City would be there, I’m going to introduce them to you as my daughter. So first thing tomorrow, you’ll be going for shopping with me” Arianna said and Hannah smiled at her and nodded in response. 

“And I have a company here in new York. I’ll be making you the new CEO, so you will  resume anytime you feel like” Arianna said and Hannah stared at her speechlessly. 

“Why are you doing all this for me? You barely know me” Hannah said 

“I just want to help you Hannah. You deserve the best Hannah” Arianna said and Hannah nodded. 

Just then a maid arrived holding a package in her hands. 

“Ma’am the package you ordered for has arrived” the maid said with her head bowed. 

“Oh! Thank you” Arianna said and took it from the maid and then gave it to Hannah, who collected it immediately.

“What’s inside?” Hannah asked 

“See for yourself” Arianna said and Hannah gave her one glance before opening the package and to her surprise she saw a phone, and a laptop. An expensive wrist watch too and some other gadgets she could barely recognize and know the use. 

“It’s all yours” Arianna said as she noticed the surprise look on Hannah’s face. 

“Isn’t this too much? All this are so expensive “ Hannah said and Arianna smiled. 

“Welcome to the land of wealth and riches , honey. Nothing is too expensive when money is involved”

While I think this could be a really great story, it needs a great deal of work to even make it readable. The flow of the story, the character monologs, it needs an editor who is competent in the English language. It could be really great! It just needs some love and attention!

    Chapter 7“Welcome to the land of wealth and riches, honey. Nothing is too expensive when money is involved”******************************Two weeks later Hannah is seen climbing down the stairs, all dressed, ready to resume the MacKenzie company as the new CEO. Just then she saw Arianna, walking out of the kitchen putting on a white long robe making her look so sexy. She was holding a cup of coffee in her hands. She could swear that nobody would believe that this woman was in her 50s but she looked so young and sexy. A lot of people would probably think they are sisters. “Good morning mom” Hannah muttered as she moved towards her and kissed her on the cheeks.“Good morning honey. I can see you are all set for work” Arianna said with a smile plastered on her face, as she examined Hannah’s dress. “It’s your first day as CEO, remember what I told you. You are now Cinderella Mackenzie, you should never let anyone intimidate you, heads high, walk majestically. And if anyone dares

    Chapter 8“Congratulations, your daughter has just given birth to Octuplets. Four boys and four girls” the doctor said and Arianna opened her eyes wide in shock. “Octuplets!!” Arianna said, almost yelling. Hannah’s stomach was so big, she had always thought there were more than one baby inside, probably triplets or quadruplets, but the fact that it was octuplets was so shocking. “Can I see her now?” Arianna asked“Yeah, sure after the nurse finishes cleaning the babies and the mother then you can see them,” the doctor said and Arianna nodded in response.After The nurse had finished cleaning the babies, Hannah.

    Chapter 9Hannah walked inside her kid's room and met them playing with their toys. With the way they were looking so calm, one would think they weren't the ones turning the whole house upside down some minutes ago. “Mommy” Addison called as she saw Hannah walk inside the room. She dropped her toy and went to hug her mommy, while the rest of the kids did the same. Hannah smiled and sat on the ground while the kids surrounded her. “Mommy, do you want to tell us a story?” Audrey asked happily. “No honey, I'm here to tell you, guys, something else,” Hannah said and the kids raised their eyebrows staring at her, waiting for her to speak.“Sweethearts, we are leaving New York City, “ Hannah said and the kids opened their eyes wide in shock. “We are leaving?” Jaxon asked and Hannah nodded in response.“Why mommy,” Allison asked“Why are we leaving mommy?” Jasper asked curiously “And where are we going?” Aubrey asked and Hannah smiled.

All she wanted to do at this moment was just to kill her.“Y-you are still alive” Rhoda stuttered. She didn’t know why but she suddenly started feeling scared as she saw Hannah.“Of course, I’m not alive.

    Chapter 13Hannah’s Car screeched to a halt in front of Brandon’s company. She put on a long jacket to cover up herself. She didn’t want anyone to know she was dressed that way. She walked inside the company and walked inside the elevator to Brandon’s office. Immediately, the elevator stopped at the last floor, she took a deep breath before walking towards Brandon’s office. She planted a soft knock on the door but there was no response. She then creaked the door opened and peeped in. There she met Brandon standing close to the window of his office staring outside the building. He looked so lost in thought that he barely noticed she was inside the office. He seems to love the outside view of his company because she had seen him standing at the same spot yesterday while staring outside, Hannah thought. She then dropped her on the chair and removed her jacket. She shortened her gown and took a deep breath before walking towards Brandon. She stood behind him wanting to touch him but

You barely know me and I barely know you and you want us to get married. You must be joking “ Hannah said and scoffed. She stared at Brandon and chuckled, he's unbelievable, she thought. Just because she asked him for help doesn’t mean he should start asking for marriage, who does that? she thought. “I know. That’s why I’m asking you to be my wife and you're gonna say yes because I do not take no for an answer” Brandon said coldly. “Are you trying to force me into marrying you?

  • Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets   We will find him

    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

    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

    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
