CHAPTER EIGHTY _ SIX

The house workers heard Maria scream and rushed to her room. On getting there, it was locked from inside. One of them immediately dailed Clifford's number and informed him about what happened at home.

"Let Henry pray to his stars that nothing happens to my daughter because he was the last person to leave my house today," Clifford threatened and hung up.

He quickly reached out to engineers to rush over to his house and break down the door to Maria's room before leaving the church premises with his wife.

Immediately Clifford got home, he rushed straight to his daughter's room with Faith following behind. They had just opened the door, and the male workers were still trying to lift Maria up.

"Let go of her," Clifford ordered. He walked twoards her and lifted her from the ground with so much ease. He carried her over his shoulder to the car, and Faith also got into the car while they drove to the hospital.

    CHAPTER EIGHTY _ SEVENHenry lay in bed. It was getting late, and he could hear everyone clearly going around their usual duties. He heard fulani asking his grandma about Mary. He had missed his mom and wanted to see her. Henry smiled. It was tough trying to convince Dylan that Mary was his mom, and making the kid warm up to his mom took another extra hour and extra time. It was really difficult for them to get to this point. He never knew Dylan would get to bond with Mary and his grandma this easily. He remembered the price he had to pay to get to this point, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately. He turned around on the bed and sighed. He heard a little grumble km his stomach, and it was then he remembered that he hadn't even had breakfast yet. He stood up from the bed reluctantly and dragged his feet towards the door. He opened the door and walked out of the room. He walked straight to the kitchen and met Mercy there. He greeted her, and she didn't respond. "Good e

"Good afternoon Father," Mary greeted, her eyes darting around the house. "How are you my daughter?" Clifford asked. "I am not fine," she replied bluntly. Clifford sighed and adjusted on his seat.

Did you not hear about the accident? I mean it was all over the news and you never showed up in the hospital for ones. Your twin sister is still there battling with pains and all you care about is some stupid inheritance? How selfish!" Faith scolded. Mary stood up to he

    CHAPTER EIGHTY _ NINE Mary left the house fuming in anger. She got into her car and drove straight home. Getting home, she walked straight to her room. Luckily, the sitting room was empty, so their was no one to question why she was looking so messed up. She walked into her room and took off her wig, hung it on the line, and undressed herself. She walked into the bathroom and soaked herself in the bath. She let the water from the shower pour down her head, and at some point she would gasp for air, take out her head and catch her breathe for a while before putting her head back in the water. She stayed in the shower for almost an hour, and when she was exhausted, she climbed out of the shower and walked back to her room. She lay in bed and slept off within a few seconds. Mary woke up the next morning with a severe headache. She walked straight to her drawer and took some painkillers. She ignored the annoying smell from the pills and just went ahead to swallow it all in. She picke

Smell of burning wire filled her nose, and she quickly covered her nose to stop the smell from irritating her the more. She could see smoke coming out from a particular part of the car engine. She tried to touch a few wires in the part where the smoke was coming from, but withdrew her hand immediately, she placed it there. She used her lips to fan her fingers for a while, and the frown on her face grew even deeper. "What have I done to deserve this so early on a Wednesday morning?" She asked and hissed. She shut the engine and returned to her car. Sitting on the drivers seat, she brought out her phone and dailed the mechanic's number. It was unreachable. The network in the area she was was really bad. She hung up, and her eyes caught Henry's number, which was clearly saved as Henry with a heart emoji. A smile formed on her lips but disappea

    CHAPTER NINETY _ TWO Mary stood up from the bed and dressed into something light. She stepped out of her room and met Mercy standing in the sitting room. The television set was on, and pictures of Henry and Maria were all over the screen.Their were also videos of the police and reporters at the accident scene. The car was empty, but Maria's blood was all over. Crowd gathered around the car, and some police officers penned down words in their books while observing the place. Mary picked up the television remote and turned the television off. "Mom, you shouldn't be watching things like this. You are only getting yourself worked up for no reason. I do not like it."Mercy sank in the couch and rested her head on the back of the sofa. She let her tears fall freely and tightened her eyes and lips. "Mom," Mary called, and sat beside her mom. She folded her fist in a blow as she thought about Henry and Maria. Her mom was obviously crying because of the both of them. She didn't like see

    CHAPTER NINETY _ THREE "The police are here, and so? When did that become an issue we discussed?" Mary asked Henry. She wondered within herself why they returned to the house. They had already shown up at the house earlier to pick Henry up for questioning. What changed? Why did they come back? Perhaps they didn't get the information they needed the first time. Or better still, they were not able to question him at all. She hoped he didn't escape the first time, and now he had come for her to help hide him in her room. "They are not here for me this time Mary, they are rather here for you," Henry informed her. The veins in her neck throbbed, and she gulped down saliva. She felt her heart skip a beat, and then it went back to the usual beating rate."What do you mean by that?" Mary asked, trying to sound firm and though. "I don't know what you are thinking, but I do know that they are here for you. By the way, why would they want to tell em the reason when we do not have any busi

He tried to close the door when she tried to walk out, but he was late. She pushed the door roughly and stormed out of the house."You can not arrest me! You can not arrest me."Mary's voice could be heard loudly all over the house. Henry hit his forehead hard with his right hand and lowered himself to a squatting position. "Stop! Please stop," Mercy shouted as she rushed towards the officers. She ran to Faith and held her dress from behind. Faith turned to her with a deadly look, forcing her to swallow hard as she took her hand from Faith's dress almost immediately. Faith stared at the spot where Mercy had touched her, and then she took her gaze to Mercy's face. She looked her from her face down to her toe and from her toe to her head. Faith stared at Mercy with so much detest and irritation. She hated Mercy so much, and eve

"I am so sorry, dad."Henry's voice sounded as though he was going to cry. "It was my fault that we ended up this way. I should have let you choose your life and your wife.""No, father.

"What are you doing here?" Mercy asked again coldly. "My parents were going to sell me off and send me to florida. I needed somewhere to hide pending the time they would change their mind." "And you think that this is the best place to hide? Is this the best way to behave when your sister is rotting behind bars? Why are you so inconsiderate Maria? Or you want your parents to come here and gundown everyone because of you? I guess that is the only time you would learn."Maria shook her head continously, as her mom spoke.

Henry called them Mr and Mrs Clifford. They said they wanted to be sure that he wasn't hiding Maria here." "Shit!" Maria exclaimed. She pulled the girl by the hand and walked straight to the kitchen with the girl following steady behind her. They got into the kitchen, and Maria locked the door. "What did you say to them?"

    CHAPTER NINETY _ EIGHT Henry lay in bed thinking about Mary. He once loved her and still did, although not romantically anymore. He wished there was something he could do about her, but there was absolutely nothing. She was guilty of the case charged, and although Maria hadn't pressed charges yet, she would as soon as Faith succeeded in convincing her. Henry was so worried for Mary's safety. It was so early in the morning, and Henry hadn't had any sleep yet. The wall clock that hung on the wall facing him read the time to his face. And it displayed 5am.Henry sighed, as he remembered Mercy, Dylan and granny. The three were in Dylan's school camp. He felt bad for the kid, none of his parents could attend the camp with him.

Everyone was exhausted and just retired to their rooms to sleep. Maria lay in bed with her eyes closed as thoughts flew freely in and out of her mind. Tears rolled down her left eyes, dropping on the sheets. She heard a light knock on the door and wiped her face immediately. "Come in," she managed to say and sat up in bed. She was too tired to stand to her feet and thanked her stars she didn't lock the door yet. She saw her mom walk into her room with a sad smile on her face. She sat on the bed beside Maria and held her jaw up. Maria understood that her mom was only trying to make her happy. She didn't like that all her life revolved around a man who was married to her own sister and wished that she could help. This was her best way of helping Maria move on from Henry, but she didn't want to. She couldn't forget the l

"Maybe you would just come over to the house so we would plan the wedding properly," Clifford's voice sounded. She felt betrayed that her dad was part of the plan. Why would he? She thought he was on her side and would help her achieve whatever she wanted. Why would he switch sides all of a sudden? She sighed sadly and returned to her room.
