2023-10-22 17:30:43“Chief” Ben and Ed called to Daniel once everyone settled down in the old Manor house.
“Why don’t you stay the night? It’s already too late.” Daniel asked looking at their tired faces.
“Chief we will come back and deal with the mess.”
“I am not worried about the mess.” Daniel shook his head.
“Chief, he is running off to the hospital.” Tyrell smirked.
“Oh… yes…yes…” Daniel rubbed his forehead “How could I forget? Go... go…”
“I am leaving Jefferson in your heads.” Ben looked at Tyrell “Are you heading back tonight?”
“Nope. I will crash here. And don’t worry... Jefferson is in safe hands.” Tyrell raised his eyebrows playfully rubbing his hands.
“Don’t worry about me…. as long as there is a bed and a bathroom, I am fine.” Jefferson smiled looki

Dana woke up 5 hours after Steve left. Ed had just stepped out to get them some coffee and lunch. Dana opened her eyes lazily but shocked to see an unfamiliar ceiling and environment; She sat up in fear but relaxed when she heard Lara’s shriek- “You’re awake?” Lara ran up to Dana and hugged her without care “You scared the living daylights out of me.” “Why are you being so exaggerated? Are these theatrics to make me feel guilty for oversleeping?” Dana rolled her eyes but frowned as she saw the IV line on her hand and realized that she was in a hospital. Lara took in her reactions and sighed “I wish… my dear Dana… I really wish you were oversleeping.” She turned to Dana with a sly smile “Next time you want to oversleep just tell me…. I promise not to nag or lecture…. Don’t use this method ever again.” “What’s wrong with me?” Dana asked in a whisper. “You had a high fever and were in coma for three days.” Lara hugged Dana “I have never been so scared.” Dana smiled sheepishly with

Dana stirred calling out to Ben in a whisper “Ben...”“Baby, I am here… Baby wake up…” Ben gently coaxed.Dana opened her eyes to see Ben looking at her with a face full of concern; Contrary to the first time Dana woke up from coma, this time she was aware of the nightmare she had previously tucked away the memories as a coping strategy. She jumped into his embrace hugging him and cried “I … I thought I would never see you again…. I ….”“It’s all over. I am here.” Ben gently caressed her back holding her in his embrace and coaxing her gently. It took Dana awhile to calm her emotions, but she refused to come out of Ben’s embrace. She laid nestled in his embrace listening to his powerful heartbeats, the only sound that would calm the worries from her nightmare.“Are you hungry?”“No” Dana refused hugging Ben tighter however her tummy refused to comply with her lie “Gggghrrhhhh”“How about we eat something first? I bought some chicken soup.” Ben gently sat her up against the bed and fed

Sarah sat in a pile of clothes in Dana’s bedroom watching Lara rummage through Dana’s cupboards.“I am not wearing a dress, its way too cold for me.” Dana sat resentfully on the other side.“This one.” Lara pulled a casual yet smart suit.“The sleeves are short. I will be cold.” Dana pouted. While most women would prefer style, Dana preferred comfort. Alexa watched with a curious expression from the dark. ‘This woman never behaved according to commonsense.’“We will be indoors, and the temperature adjusted.” Sarah tried to be the peacemaker.Dana twisted her lips eyeing Sarah suspiciously.“That settles it.” Lara placed the set on the bed.“Are you sure you can’t come?” Sarah looked imploringly at Lara.“Positive unless you guys want Cheryl to take my head in a plate to the advertisers.” Lara pouted “I have taken a week off at short notice, that woman would have a heart attack.”Cheryl came to pick Lara up while Dana was in the shower. She looked curiously at Sarah who was half lying

Chelsey was over the moon. She only expected to raise enough to start the foundation. But now they had more than enough to complete the entire project and fund the administration for 1 year.She squeezed Carrie hands “We did it.”Carrie and Tempest were no different, they were overwhelmed with emotions. They just finished transferring all the funds to the construction company with an agreement to start construction tomorrow. The previous agreement was for the foundation to start once they pay an initial deposit with whatever they raised today; the construction company would start work as goodwill and they could pay in installments. However, the collection today was more than enough to pay the amount in full. Arthur contacted the construction company as soon as they reached the threshold and was further surprised with their generosity of giving a 20% discount. They agreed to sign and pay on the spot.“My dear patrons.” Chelsey calmed her emotions and walked back on stage with a balance

Alexa hurried to the car and called in an enquiring manner “Madam??”“Holy cross hospital”Alexa reached the hospital in minutes breaking at least 10 traffic rules and several honking cars.Dana whispered the way to Steve’s room.“Steve” Dana called weakly as they entered. Steve raised his head to see a mortified Sarah and a bleeding Dana.“What the ….”“Sew me up first.” Dana smiled weakly “Let's swear later.”Steve frowned looking at the wound and got to work quickly. Luckily the wound was superficial.“Steve, take a look at Alexa. She’s hurt too.” Dana sat up once Steve had bandaged the wound.“I am fine.” Alexa pursed her lips. She was not used to people fussing about her. This was just a small wound. All she needed was a bottle of alcohol and forceps and she would be good as new. ‘This stupid woman was almost killed, and she has time to worry about everyone else’. Alexa shivered at the thought of if she was a minute late or if the shard had pierced a little deeper.“Young lady, t

“Oh…” Dana covered her neck and stood up to run for cover. Ben pulled her back into arms “Baby, you really think that such a silly lie would suffice?” He narrowed his eyes as he stared into her eyes. Dana blushed and pushed him out of embarrassment “You broke your promise.” She pouted childishly. “I didn’t… Hur… hur…. hur…” Ben laughed “Let’s talk later.” “Hymph!” Dana turned her head but winced with pain. “Baby…” Ben frowned “Shall we go to the hospital?” “No” “But this seems to be bleeding.” Lara got up and checked to see what the status was … “That’s it. Let’s go.” She pulled Dana with a frown. “No.” Dana childishly held on to Ben. “Mr Adalase, you better get your sorry ass up or I will kick you out.” Lara spoke furiously. Her voice wavered as she was scared. Ben pursed his lips; He didn’t want to contradict Dana; he was also taken back by Lara’s words. No one had ever spoken to him in that tone. He looked down at Dana’s neck and realized the reason behind Lara’s reckles

“Do you want to talk about it?” Dana raised her head to look at Ben and added “Later” as she saw his taut expression. “I don’t have any secrets from these guys… it’s just that I don’t know much.” “Tell me what you know.” “Nothing much. Just that she seems to have a problem with people from different ethnicity.” Ben’s frown deepened. “That’s a relief.” Dana sighed. “Huh?” Lara and Sarah looked at Dana with confusion. “At least it’s just not me.” Dana smiled mischievously. “Actually, other than this one flaw, she is a very sweet person.” Frank added “It is sometimes hard to believe it’s the same person.” “What do you mean?” Dana sat forward in interest. Ben scowled as he pulled her back into his embrace “I will tell you.” “Hur… hur…hur…” Ed and Frank laughed. Dana glared at Ben before turning back to Frank “I am really curious.” But she stayed nestled in Ben embrace. It was a picturesque scene; the three most powerful men in the country sat like ordinary men with their woman

Samantha walked out of the store and her face contorted into an ugly expression. She hated having to lower her head to that bitch. But there was nothing she could do. They were warned not to attract to much attention with the big event nearing after the incident at the luncheon. Luckily it didn’t create any news. This was of course credit to Irene’s involvement. Samantha walked towards the café where she had organized to meet with Amber lost in thought. She couldn’t understand why anyone would choose Dana over her. Amber waved towards Samantha as walked in. “Auntie Stacey” Samantha smiled stiffly as she walked towards Amber. Ever since Gail told her about Amber’s true intentions she felt revolted every time she was called ‘Auntie’. She wondered if this was Amber’s way of telling her that she was too old to compete with her for a man. “What’s wrong?” Amber asked in concern. “I just met an eyesore.” Samantha pursed her lips as she sat down. She called Amber to clarify whether Gail m

“That is not up to you.” Marken, one of the high counsellors disdained. Adalases was not Ben’s to stake at will; There were other Adalases who could refute this stake.Sherman knew Marken’s ambition was no less than Herten, but he also knew that unlike Herten, Marken would never betray his country and was in a good mood for watching a show although he knew what decision he would ultimately make.“That is a fair point.” Sherman nodded thoughtfully before saying “If the entire Adalase can be staked on this man, then I agree.” Sherman chuckled “With resources greater than the reserve bank, it won’t be hard to rebuild our facilities even if we are compromised.”No one could refute this point.“The Weldons won’t shy away from responsibility either.” Frank didn’t know why the commander had changed his colors, but he stood shoulder to shoulder with his brother.Shadow didn’t have anything to offer, but he stood beside Ben. His expression unwavering.Tyrell slowly got up from his chair and wal

Lara delivered a baby girl as her heart’s desire. She only saw her bundle of joy for a minute before her vision blurred. She also saw the joy in her man’s eyes. These were the two things she remembered before she fainted. She didn’t know if she would wake up again or whether this was eternal sleep, but she was gratified.The Evans and Burton elders had just returned when Amy came out holding the bundle of joy. They didn’t have time to process everything before they were handed the little bundle.“She is so sweet.” Megan smiled as looked over Marjorie shoulders.“My daughter-in-law is indeed pretty.” Dana laughed. She knew the minds of the elders were not calm. She was trying to lighten their moods.No one knew when Ben, Frank and Shadow appeared behind their women.“How can it be so easy to snatch my granddaughter?” Marjorie retorted proudly.“Yes…. yes…yes...” Abigail laughed happily as she let the little one hold her finger tightly. Dana’s retort had pulled the elders mind back to th
Destined to love My little girl is strong…. Nothing will happen!
Ben and Dana’s days were filled with love and tranquility. Ben felt like he was in a dream; his life was everything he dreamed of; his beloved woman was his wife; she would cook and wait for him; his house was filled with the laughter of the precious treasures his wife had given him. He was truly grateful to the heavens.Ed’s days were getting hectic. Between the challenges of his official duty and a pregnant wife, he was almost ready to retire. He wanted to spend more time with his wife and child. Seeing Ben’s cute little babies, he couldn’t wait to have his own little treasure.Frank and Sarah didn’t know whether to laugh or cry; their little Lu would run almost every day to see his little wife, especially now that she was becoming prettier. The babies were becoming chubbier with fair skin and rosy cheeks. Their features were becoming more prominent and dashing, melting the hearts of everyone around them.Dan and Don were like a mother hen defending their younger siblings from everyo
Destined to love She can still sleep?
The next day, the Williamses landed and rushed to the hospital. Dana had rested well and regained most of her vigor.Ben was changing nappies while Dana was sleeping peacefully when they arrived.“She can still sleep?” Dana’s younger sister asked in surprise as Ben gestured for them to lower their volume. He handed one baby each to the stunned Mr and Mrs Williams and led all of them to the adjacent room.“Sorry… Dana has just rested.” Ben apologized sincerely for his rudeness.Mrs Williams shook head, her eyes were misty. She was truly grateful to the heavens for her daughter’s fortune to have met such a man. Even though he was rich and powerful, he loved and doted on her without bounds…. This was truly her fortune. It would be a lie to say that they were not worried. On the way back after the wedding they had met a lady who was crying pitifully. Mrs Williams didn’t feel comfortable and lend her a shoulder to lean on; She didn’t know who they were and told them that she was fleeing fro
Destined to love He wouldn’t have a clue.
Ben sat next to Dana urging her to wake up. He was scared out of his wits as he had seen the amount of blood that she lost during the delivery… he feared that she wouldn’t wake up and all his happiness would disappear in the blink of an eye even though Steve repeatedly reassured him that she was fine and just sleeping from exhaustion. He sat next to her telling her how much he missed her.He told her how he felt that a portion of him was missing without her by his side; He told her how much he loved her…. He begged her to wake up… He sat by her side never taking his eyes of her pale face… holding her hand … and begging her to wake up….He started to tell her their story from his perspective. He told her how she disturbed him from their first encounter. How he thought that she had approached him with a purpose, He told her how he shamelessly wanted to see her even if he knew that she had approached him with a purpose.He told her how he used to follow her like a shadow just to feel her
Destined to love What about mine???
Ben was on edge now that Dana was full term. He kept following her nervously like a shadow. One evening just as they finished dinner and were heading upstairs to retire, Dana stood still on the stairs and called weakly “Ben….”“What is it?” Ben looked affectionately at his wife who had stopped walking and became stiff.“I…. my …. I think my water broke.” Dana barely managed to mumble as she held on tightly to Ben.“You…. you….” Ben froze.Alexa was the first to react. She ran downstairs to alert Shadow and Mrs Bentley before running back upstairs to get the baby bag that Dana had prepared beforehand.“CEO” Alexa called out helplessly as she saw a frozen Ben.“Huh?” Ben looked at the panic-stricken Dana and came to his senses. He carried her and ran downstairs carefully. Alexa informed him that Shadow was waiting downstairs with the car. Shadow had informed Steve as soon as Alexa came running downstairs. Everything at the hospital would be set by Steve.Shadow sped towards the hospital;
Destined to love Shouldn’t you at least wait for the lady to agree?
Shadow had been getting along fabulously with Ruth and decided that he wanted to get married watching Ben’s bliss. He had decided on Ruth, then what was the point in delaying… but the problem was he had no idea how to…. he was also worried if Ruth didn’t have the same intention… then wouldn’t he be making a fool of himself?Shadow walked around with a constipated expression. He would have asked Dana’s help if his boss wasn’t so petty…. But what could he do… his boss was!“What’s wrong?” Dana finally asked as she couldn’t bear to watch his miserable face.“I …” Shadow suddenly felt tongue tied. He was waiting for Dana to ask…. But when she did, he didn’t know how to vocalize his problem. He lowered his head with a frown on his lips.“He wants to propose to Ruth but doesn’t know how to.” Ben didn’t give Shadow any face when he mercilessly pierced through his wall.“Oh….” Dana nodded perceptively “You are worried that she doesn’t have that intention and she will reject?”Shadow nodded alt

The ladies went shopping happily without realizing that none of their actions were missed by their men.Dana wanted to see how Ruth was going so she decided to stop by her shop. However, she changed her mind when she got to Ruth’s shop and pulled the others and ran. Granger was at the store pestering Ruth. It was most certainly a crime to stop someone’s fortune and she didn’t want her husband to have another enemy…..hehe…hehe… she was quite clever!“What are you laughing like a fool for?” Lara asked looking at Dana’s silly smile.Dana shrugged keeping her silly smile but didn’t enlighten the two.“Sister-in-law...” A sweet sound called from behind as the ladies were immersed in their world of freedom.The three turned in unison but Dana’s face darkened as she saw Lizzie walking towards her smiling like a flower. She had almost forgotten her promise to Bertie.“When did I become your sister-in-law?” Dana folded her hands looking arrogantly at Lizzie.“Soon… soon we will be family.” Lizz

His father was his pride. He looked up to his father but now…. looking at all the shameful things his father had done, he didn’t want any part in it.
