“What do you want from me?” She asked, and her voice trembled.
“Are you married?” Mr. Williams asked.
“Yes, I am. Do you want me to wait for you for eternity?” she asked.
“I am sorry for what happened, Anna. I was young and stupid. I didn't know what I was doing. I thought my parents wanted the best for me, but my life got ruined instead. I looked for you everywhere, but I heard you moved out of the country,” he explained.
Anna broke down and began to sob. Her body shook while she sobbed. Williams sat upright and held her in his hands. “I got a scholarship. I had to travel to Korea to further my education to become a nurse.”
After a few minutes, she was calm, and Williams gathered the courage to speak, “And the child? The last time you told me you were pregnant,” he spoke.
“What do you mean?” She asked, narrowing her eyes and fixing her gaze on him.
“You said you were pregnant for me,” he spoke.
Anna was confused, and she narrowed her eyes. “Where is Elena?” she asked.
Williams narrowed his eyes, and he gave her a questioning look. “You know Elena?” he asked.
She sniffed and wiped her eyes. “I gave birth to Elena, and when I couldn't cater for her, so I dropped her at your front door,” she confessed.
Williams heart slammed hard against his chest, and his mouth was wide open. “What?” he asked.
Anna nodded her head. “Elena is your daughter.” She spoke, and tears streamed down her eyes.
Williams heart kept pounding hard. He didn't know what to say to Anna. How would he tell her that he doesn't know about Elena’s whereabouts and that he has not set his eyes on her for the past 5 years?
How does he explain to her that his life was shattered and became a living hell?
“Elena is my daughter?” he asked. “She is my blood?”
Anna nodded. “Yes, she is,” she said.
Immediately, tears dropped from Williams eyes, and Anna wiped his tears. Their eyes were loved on each other, and they both leaned in.
Williams brushed his lips softly on Anna, and they kissed intensely.
Immediately, the door was swung open, and Emily walked into the room. She was stunned to see what was in front of her. Williams kissing another woman.
“Williams?” she shouted.
They didn't know what to do. They just fixed their eyes on Emily.
“You have been acting like a nurse only to seduce my husband,” she shouted.
Anna stood up, and Emily pulled Anna by the hair, and her sleek bun loosened and fell on her shoulder. Emily’s eyes widened when she looked at Anna.
She narrowed her eyes and pointed at Anna. “Anna?” she called.
Anna walked up to her. “Yes, it is me. Remember me now? Do you remember how you took away everything from your best friend because of your selfishness? You are a scumbag, Emily.” Anna voiced out.
Emily stretched out her hands and tried to hit Anna on the cheeks when her hands were held by someone else.
“Not here,” Elena spoke as they turned to look at Elena.
Emily’s eyes widened as she turned to see Elena. She became scared and ran to the other side of the room.
“You are alive?” she asked.
“Yes, do you want me dead?” she asked. “You must be surprised, but you should know that you are going to pay for your crimes,” Elena spoke.
Immediately she heard her name, “Elena?” Anna called. Tears filled her eyes, and she stared at Elena. She walked up to her and wrapped her arms around her.
“My Elena, my baby,” she spoke.
Elena slowly pulled away; she looked at Anna strangely. She noticed her long brown hair and could see her pale skin. Her eyes were red and puffy.
“I am so sorry, my love. I shouldn't have left you,” she said.
Elena turned to Williams as she screeched her brows. “Who is a woman, and what is she talking about? she asked.
Williams watched them. tears rolled down his cheeks. “Elena. My Elena. I am sorry. I had no idea. I thought you were not mine,” Williams cried.
Elena’s facial expression was unreadable, and she was filled with confusion. She pulled away from Ann and walked to Williams.
“What are you talking about?” she asked.
“Elena, you are my biological daughter, and this woman right there is your mother,” he confessed.
Elena’s POV:My heart slammed hard against my chest as I stared at everybody. I was filled with confusion, and I tried to understand what I had just heard. “What- what?” I stuttered with tears forming in my eyes. What are these people saying?“What do you mean, Mr. Williams?”Anna walked up to Elena with tears rolling down her cheeks. “Yes, Elena. Please forgive me,” she cried out, holding Elena, but Elena pushed her away.“Let go of me. Mr. Williams, what is she talking about?” I asked."That is the truth, Anna. I am your biological father, and Anna is your biological mother,” he confessed. “You both are liars. Leave me alone,” I spoke and ran outside. Sarah and Zoey stood in the doorway with their eyes widened. I ran past them into the hallway. Zoey ran after her and called my name as she tried to catch up with me. “Elena! Elena, please wait,” Zoey caught up with me and she squatted and wrapped her arms around me. I cried so hard that my body was shaking. I couldn't take it anym
Elena's POV:“Nicklaus!” I called as I ran with the nurses and the doctors inside the emergency. “Nicklaus please. Nicklaus, please,” I pleased. They ran into the theatre, and I was stopped at the doorway.“Madam, you have to wait here. We will do all out best to revive him,” one of the nurses said to me. I stood there in confusion. I couldn't think or do anything. I just wish the ground would open right now and swallow me up. Why is Nicklaus here? He is badly injured.I broke down in tears. Zoey ran to me and consoled me. My body was shaking with sobbing, and I couldn't breathe properly. Just now that I have decided to give Nicklaus a chance, all of this is happening to me. I cried so hard that I didn't take it anymore. It was too much to bear. The doctors were taking so long. They had been operating him all night long.Everything felt so overwhelming. That was when Nicklaus and all of his family arrived. His father, cousins, uncles, and aunties. Nicklaus Butler was with them. Im
Elena’s POV:He started the car, and we left for the hospital. We arrived after a short while, and I decided to go see Nicklaus first. I slowly opened the door to see Nicklaus up and active, even though he looked pale.He smiled warmly when he set my eyes on me.“How are you doing today?” I asked, leaning to kiss him on the forehead. “You gave us a scare.”“I am doing just fine,” he said, and we kissed again when Sarah opened the door. “So this is what you both had been doing in my back? You are a social climber, Elena. “Sarah, not now. I had already signed the divorce papers. You have to play your own part,” Nicklaus spoke.She walked up to me and gave me a daring look. “You are a scumbag,” she spoke and turned to Nicklaus. “I will make sure you pay for it,” she warned and walked out of the room.“I have to go be with my dad right now. I will see you later,” I said and walked out of the room. I walked to my father’s room to see my father lying weakly on the bed. I ran to him, “Fat
Sarah‘s POV:I ran out of the hospital as fast as I could before the security would catch up with me. I got into my car and zoomed off. I was breathing very hard as I drove with tears in my eyes.Elena really hurt me, and blood was coming out of my lips. She punched me really hard. I drank off as I wiped my lips. I wish I had completed my mission in killing Nicklaus. I planned to run away with his money and go far away. It would have been a silent deal, and he would have shut up for like. But right now, I am in trouble. He would not keep quiet. He would expose me and tell the world everything that he had found out.I have to go far away. Very far away, where nobody would be able to find me. I will make sure I execute my plans there. After what felt like forever, I arrived at the house and broke into Nicklaus safe. I carried all of his diamond jewellery and some bundles of dollars. My eyes fell on a pistol, and I picked it up. “This would be enough to get me to terminate him and El
Elena’s POV: I stayed up all night with my father and Nicklaus. Nicklaus’s bodyguards surrounded his room together with the police as he gave his statement. I also have my statement, and I felt relieved that he is now guarded. Alex, Zoey, and Jason arrived and stayed with me all night long. Jason had refused to sleep. He played with my father; I watched them as I smiled. They looked so happy. They laughed and joked until they both fell asleep.I had a little sleep on the couch. Zoey and Alex went home to rest. It was morning, and I blinked, my eyes opened. The police stopped by my father’s ward as they searched for Sarah. She had been on the run since last night, and we have not heard from her. When my father woke up to hear the news of Sarah’s crimes and her disappearance last night, he became weak. I noticed his mood, and I tried to cheer him on. I walked up to him, “Who was that?” he asked.I exhaled deeply, “Father, it's the police. Unfortunately, Sarah is wanted,” I spoke.
I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home. I want to wait here. I know Sarah will come back here,” I said. “It's fin
Nicklaus lay on the hospital bed, but he was feeling uneasy about the whole situation. Anna saw him by the doorway as he struggled; she helped him out, “Nicklaus, you can't leave. You haven't fully recovered,”Nicklaus father arrived and was surprised to see Nicklaus leave. “I have to go help Elena. I want to be by her side,” Nicklaus spoke.“I am tired of being told what to do. Please get me out of here.”Mr. Coleman and the nurse agreed; they threw Nicklaus out of the hospital in a wheelchair. They got into the car, and after what felt like forever, they arrived at the penthouse.“Nicklaus walked in to see Zoey and Alex pacing around without Elena. He looked around, hoping to see her come out, but she didn't.“Where is Elena?”“She left with Sarah. I am still trying to track her location,” Alex said. Immediately, Nicklaus reached for one of my keys and rushed out of the penthouse. He reached for my car and zoomed off. He took his car tracker and tracked Sarah’s location.Alex, An
Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was
