Mr. Thor headed up to his room. He opened the door but was shocked that his wife wasn't in the room. He had expected her to be there waiting for him as usual but she wasn't at all.
"Where is she then?" as he got worried. He went all over the house to search for her but he couldn't find her, getting exhausted he decided to check her in Betty's room but he didn't want to disturb them so he turned back to go to His room. He heard girly giggles coming from the room.He paused in his tracks and went over to the door, he knocked but the door flew wide open and the girls fell silent. They all looked up waiting to see who it was."Noah?!" his wife stood up."I'll be back," she told the girls as she went out with Noah"Is everything OK?""No...I.." he stammered."you took too long so I decided to stay with the girls" she tried explaining"Oh...where is nix" trying to change the topic"I don't know""Hmm""Lemme ask the girls""Seems you love tMr. Thor headed up to his room.

Betty ran across the dining and she halted. Lily and nix were eating their food silently without making any move to talk to each other and the atmosphere seemed calm. They both looked up to her but lily continued with her food. Betty was stricken by Nix kept on looking at her until Betty's eyes met with nix's, they both gazed at each other for a long time until nix stood up and walked over to where Betty stood unmoving Betty felt shivers run down her spine the moment nix was an inch close to her. "Wanna join us?" she didn't say a word and went over to lily who had finished with her food and was staring at the two. Betty dragged her by the hand and went upstairs to her room."Lily what are you doing with him?" she asked seeming annoyed but lily didn't say a word and just walked over to the bed brought out her laptop and became serious with her work. Betty shook her head and went to the bathroom. When she was done she came out and began drying her wet hair after she
Betty went up to her room. She was utterly frustrated, she couldn't continue like this. She would head back to school once her parents were back which was just in two days. She felt relieved at least for a while as she lay on the sofa."Lily!" as she stood up. She hadn't seen her anywhere."Where would she be?" She went out of her room and was about to head outside again. She was lily coming out of her uncle's room. She went over to her but lily didn't say a word and just followed Betty to her room. Betty noticed that she looked weak and tired and left her to rest but her mind was bothered about what lily was doing in that room"I need to find out more," he said surprising everyone"Why? Do you like her?"He stood up."Yes I do she's perfect""But I don't think Dilan would?" nix added"He will he just needs time""What of if he doesn't?" "He must! I can't die without having an heir" he said with finality and left the room. "Wha
Betty and lily were done packing for school. "I'll miss you," Karin said. Betty felt sober she wasn't leaving mainly because of nix but because her school had resumed and transferred over here would be a waste of time since she was almost done but she couldn't help but feel emotional she knew Karin her dad wasn't the kind to express his feelings anyhow but she has seen how emotions ran through his eyes as he said it. She ran up to him and hugged him."I'll miss you more dad" clutching him tightly. They hugged for a while and he kissed her on her forehead. She hugged her mom too, they all escorted her and lily to the airport after a few hugs they departed. When Karin got home with his wife he found his brother Noah talking seriously with a group of men. Jenna got the message and left the men to be alone besides she knew Karin wouldn't hide anything from her and she trusted him too so there was no need to worry. The atmosphere seemed tensed as Karin walked up t
Betty didn't know how to react. She felt like punching him so hard that his teeth would fall off and she did but he held her hands before she could even get close to his face"Leave me alone you...""your love?""What...I don't love... leave me!""No, I won't Betty""Leave me alone nix!""Only on one condition!" he said smirkingShe glared at him and tried to free herself from his grip but his hands were too strong. She finally gave up."What?!"He smiled."Let's be friends""Okay okay we're friends" as she tried pulling away from himHe held her"Not that kind of friends"She looked at him inquisitively for a while"What Kind?""My girlfriend"She became furious but calmed down. She knew she couldn't free herself from him and it was getting late who knows what else he had on his mind."What do you want from me nix?""Am on a mission" she blinked. "So your my girlfriend from now on""yes yes!"
The waitress stared at her expecting her to add something to her request but Betty didn't say anything else the waitress turned to leave but nix stopped her."Get her some chicken wings with that" and the waitress nodded and left. "Why did you add that?""Because you're my girlfriend" Betty fell speechless."And you look hungry" She felt agitated and felt like punching him but she held herself and calmed down. Soon the waitress came back with the food and juice. She served them and left. Betty decided to get some drinks while nix took the wings she didn't say anything she just drank her juice while she was busy on her phone. Nix was already full yet Betty didn't say anything he felt disappointed. He wanted to say something but he saw her look up at him like she wanted to say something that she had been holding since. He smiled widely"I'm tired nix I want to go home" and his smile vanished. He thought maybe she was pretending b
Betty slept off."Where have you been," Dilan asked.Nix didn't say anything but just headed to his room"Stay away from Betty" and Nix halted"Do you like her?" "Shut up"He smiled "She's all mine Dilan so stay away yours is on the way" and he left.Dilan understood what nix said. So his father went behind him to look for a wife. He sat down and made a call."Meet me right here right now" he ended the call as he lay back on the sofa with his eyes closed.Betty woke up pretty early to finish up her work for the day she made sure to keep herself busy to avoid nix finding out where she was. When she was done with the last thing she had to do that day she headed back home. It was already getting late, saw a man walk beside her."Hi pretty" she didn't reply"What's a pretty girl like you doing here?"She hastened her footsteps.He caught her hands."Come on pretty girl your still young you need someone to.
The atmosphere was as tense and silent as a graveyard. All eyes were on Dilan as his knuckles turned white, they were all waiting for his reply. They all couldn't blame his dad for forcing him to get married besides Mr. Noah was reaching his age limit and if he passed away with no one after Dilan his empire and all his efforts would be a waste. The Thor empire was the greatest among all companies and the most feared and respected, its enemies had always found a way to bring it down to the dust but Noah thor never gave them the chance ever since he handed it over to his son Dilan the company has soared to greater heights making the rest utterly angry and frustrated but this time they had hope. Knowing that Dilan never found interest in any woman they knew that once Noah Thor died and left Dilan all alone they had a chance to penetrate all they had to wait for now was for Noah's death. They had been attacking him severally through all many the last ones they attemp
Noah, Sajan, and Niah hugged Betty tight she felt she was going to run out of breath."Please don't kill my fiancee before our wedding" Phoenix commented. The kids and their father, Cosmo chuckled. Cosmo walked over to where Nix stood."I'm sure the kids would miss you much too especially Sajan"Nix gave a light smile."I will too""I'm sorry for what Sasha might have put you and Betty through with her vain quest"Nix just stared at him and nodded. Cosmo gave him a light pat and then walked back to the children. "Don't forget to call me if you need help with anything" Betty said."Would you fly over just because of them?" Cosmo asked."Yes" she answered with all seriousness "I still take them as mine though not biologically"Betty hugged the trio once more and then cosmo before leaving them to catch their flight. "Now back to the main business," Nix said.Betty wanted to know why her father helped Sasha forge the results."Or didn't he want her to be with Nix?" She thought aloud
Ring ring...Her phone kept buzzing but she refused to pick up. Why would Dilan be calling her so early in the morning? Though a part of her wanted to answer the call and find out why another part of her seemed to have gotten the best part of her reasoning. She watched her phone buzz repeatedly till he decided to stop calling. She breathed a heavy sigh of relief. Then a knock on her door. She felt tormented. What was all this? At first she concluded she would just stay and wait till the person left but the next thing she heard made her heart jump from her mouth. The person had broken her door down and began to look through the house. She peered from above but only caught his silhouette. She ran inside her room immediately and made to lock the door when she felt a strong hand push the door open. She fell on the floor due that action. "Charles?" She muttered."Why are you...?""Lily is missing" he answered back cutting her off. In seconds he explained everything to her. Each sentence
"Congratulations ma'am" the nurse excitedly congratulated her, her face beaming with smiles. She turned to Steve who was still starting ever lovingly at Silvia. "Please make sure she gets enough rest" the nurse repeated but this time emphasizing strictly to Steve.He nodded in affirmation promising to do so. Silvia ed is oblivious to what was happening within her. Steve held her hands and kissed her on her forehead. "Don't be scared babe I'm here for you " he told her. Silvia didn't know what to do at this moment, she was in utter confusion. This could be the end of her life and career. It would have been better if only she knew about it but then Steve found out. How on earth was she going to tell this man standing before her that she wanted to abort the baby? Not that she couldn't but he'll try to find out why.What was more terrible was knowing that she was going to be in trouble when Dilan or any member of his family gets to hear this. Speaking of Dilan..her phone rang...It w
Silvia glared at the piece of paper in their hand, she crumpled it and threw it into the bin. She got into her car and drove home, she began to ponder"a month pregnant?!!!" she yelled."I can't be. This can't be possible. She parked the car by the side of the road and began to do some "calculations""But we were protected and I never skipped my morning pills" She thought so hard her forehead began to hurt. A memory flashed into her brain, she remembered the time she had stayed indoors with Steve all through. She was too lost in the moment she forgot herself. She yelled and screamed and finally sobbed. This was a bad turn for her, she knew she could not even blame it on Dilan who not for once even gave her a handshake. "Steve!!!" She drove to her house in annoyance. She threw her purse on the couch and began to think of a solution"If I tell him....he might want us to get married" she concluded. With the way steve professed his love for her over and over again she knew that telling
Cosmo walked up to Betty and knelt to face Sajan "Am your father" The man told the boy. The boy blinked repeatedly and looked at Nix."Come" Cosmo put his hand forward to take the boy. Nix dragged the boy to himself. Nix fell short of words too even though it had been his wish for all of this to vanish into thin air or for someone to just pop out of nowhere and claim Sajan. But he didn't think he might feel the way he felt now. He had gotten used to having Sajan as his son a part of him felt excited about having him."What do you mean?" Betty asked Cosmo. He smiles embarrassingly but answered her question truthfully, not wanting her to doubt him. "It's a long story" She cocked her head to the side in wonder. "Let's go home then" Betty suggested. Sasha got into Cosmo's car while Nix, Betty, Sajan, and the twins got into the car leading the way for Cosmo. Nix called Noah Thor who advised him to drive to his house including that he would call Doctor Darrel. The car came to a hal
Arriving at the dining hall, the couple and the trio were given a private room. The elevated radiant ceilings and the orthodox scenery embellished an astonishing ambiance. The interior area appeared friendly and alluring with the flowers on each table and relieving piano music that float in the restaurant. The decibels weren't very high, the soundness was quiet and superficial. Nix discovered that Betty had been silent since they entered."You order I'll be in the bathroom," Betty said with a smile. He nodded and sat down with the children all cornered around him. Betty went into the washroom, she wiped the tears that were about to fall, making sure that she was alright she went back to her date. Phoenix had set up a kind of "family reunion" but it was more like a reunion between him and Betty.Betty sat on her seat which was directly opposite nix, giving him the perfect opportunity to stare at her as long as he wanted. They were served lobster balls and tofu "Simple?" Betty asked"
...Betty found it hard to sleep all through the night. She kept on reminiscing about the events that occurred between her and nix. The surprise kisses ran chills through her spine anytime she thought of it.Matt was right she missed nix but more now she thought of him. After a long thought, she stood up to go and meet Alicia but she paused in her tracks when she thought she might interrupt something.Just then she heard a knock."Wanna talk?" Alicia asked.Betty smiled to herself."Nix you have four days left to bring my son back to me" Sasha texted nix.Nix laughed at seeing the message."Any problem dad?" Sajan asked as he joined Nix on the couch."Your mom misses you"Sajan frowned"Why?""You don't hate her do you?""A little""she's still your mom and you shouldn't feel that way toward her" Nix explained to Sajan.Sajan was about to reply when they got interrupted by a knock on the door followed by the swinging open of the door."Matt?""Phoenix... it been long," Matt said giving
"Betty, why did you even attempt that?" Ashely patted Betty on the back while she sobbed heavily."No matter where I go I'll still feel the same way about him....I'll still love him and i"ll still want to be with him. I can still feel him he's like everywhere. But I can't forget what he did. He lied to me he deceived me" she cried."But he loves you that am sure of" Betty didn't say a word after...after a few minutes she fell into a deep slumber."Phoenix?" Matt asked as he sat beside Alicia.Alicia nodded."So how long is she going to stay here?" "As long as she wants" Alica replied curtly "Why the attitude?" Matt asked with a smile"Why the smile?" she asked back"Get serious Alicia....stop fooling around and help your friend""Matt" Alicia screamed his name and rushed towards him. She blew a punch on his stomach and he "groaned" in pain and began to laugh."That hurts babe," he said hugging Alicia tightly "Leave me you twitch""No" Matt disagreed and kissed her."Your lips tast
Nix and the kids had left that early morning leaving Betty alone in the house. She decided to take a walk before she finally left to "find herself".She just couldn't stop thinking of the happenings of yesterday, especially the surprise kisses she had gotten from Nix. Her lips itched to get more but she was relieved her senses were still in control and had stopped her from what might have led to another thing and now she had her chance to run away from him she wouldn't let it go.She decided to take a cab to anywhere her heart finds solace."Going where ma'am" "Just taking a drive""Okay to where ma'am?""Don't worry I'll take a cab""No ma'am just let me" the driver pleaded.Betty didn't want to argue so she agreedThey drove far away from their hometown, she didn't want to see or hear anyone she knew. She was already aware of the "I love you's, why did do that" coming from her friend Alicia and Nix. But she neither hear any of it. Driving down to the beach several miles away. She s
