"Yes everything is the problem, you could have discussed this with me, before bringing her over here."

"This is my house, and I don't need your consent to bring anybody here."

"It's enough you two, Ford she will start giving her the respect she deserves as your wife?"

"The day she will learn to mind her business."

"She is your wife, you don't expect her to overlook things?"

"This is my house."

"Same way it's hers."

"Oh Mother can we just stop this whole drama, I have somewhere important to be." He saw Brielle coming down the stairs. "Are you ready?" She nodded.

"I'm not done talking to you."

"This discussion isn't necessary." Brielle stands there gaping at them, Lucy glares at her. She dismissed her and stared at her new grandmother, she was the reason why all this happened, she was in the way of two lovers.

"It's nice meeting you."

"I can't say the same here." Brielle didn't know she blurted it out, this was what she had practiced in her mind to say to her when they meet, but

"What!!!? The mother and daughter chorused at the same time. "Ford you can't be serious, she was only saying her mind." "Sapphire, I won't repeat myself, leave this table. I see you didn't come here to eat, when you are to eat you can join us."

    "Ready, one, two, go." The duo jumped inside the water. They raced to the other end of the pool."Yeaaaah, I won." "Man is getting flimsy." "Let's go again." They swam back to the end again. Brielle stretched out fast before him, she watched Frederick get out of the water, to sit beside her. Something caught her eyes as he leaped to her side."What happened to your shoulder?" She watches intently."This, oh I had an accident.""When? How?""I think it's karma, nature decided to pay me a visit for killing her.""Didn't say that, when did it happen?""The day I went to see her, and for the news of her death, I was coming back, my eyes were getting murky after crying, and I drove myself that day, I didn't see the incoming vehicle and it ran into me.""So sorry, you could have covered it up.""After I recovered, I grew to like the mark.""Why?""It reminded me of her." Brielle chuckled."You are such a great lover." he giggled at her words. "Some will get surgery because they want to fo

    The duo went back to Lucy's room, the knock on the door interrupted them."Come in." "Mom, can you help me out with some cash?""I don't have enough now.""Mom!!" The two chorused"What!!?"It was just last week, what happened to the money." "I don't think I owe you two explanations on how I spend my money.""You can simply say, you don't want to give me, you were credited last week.""That was last week, this is a new week."Clifford's mood dampened, his mother was his last resort, after his father refused to give him his allowance earlier than the designated time. He knows Sapphire would not loan him cash. He strode out of the room. "I will give you some cash, if you do my bidding." He stopped at her words. "Are you being serious?""Yes.""Ok what do you want me to do, assassinate, rob the bank or buy drugs for you." "You moron, it's totally different from that. Ok here is the deal, there is a number I need you to get." "From where?""Brielle's phone." "What!! How do I get my

    "And this is all you can come up with, a fake DNA result."Sapphire gazed at her mother, she was surprised, her mother never told her anything about this, all eyes in the dining room were on Lucy. "Lucy come on, even if she wants to leech off me, why are you offended about that, that's the same thing you are doing, so why feel bad that someone wants to join you." "Ford, those are real, see the hospital stamp." "Enough!! Do you think I haven't conducted a test? I know this is fake, so please quit this drama." He clamored. Lucy clenched her jaw, she didn't know that he had conducted a test. Frederick stormed out of the dining, and Lucy hit the table making it jerk, before leaving the dining, with Sapphire trailing behind her. Only Clifford and Brielle were left at the table, they gaped at each other."You aren't going with your mother?""You aren't going with your father?" They both giggled, Brielle stuffed her mouth with food before leaving the dining room, her mind went back to w

"Not so soon.""What do we do now?""We have to come up with something fast, if she slips our hand now, we don't know when next we will see her.""That's it, do you have any plans?" "No, we have only one option now, that's our first plan." The duo looked at each other."But we don't know how to do it.""Leave it to me, just play out your role well, then we are good." Sapphire heaved a deep breath. "You have to do it during dinner.""Ok." ************************Brielle had just returned from the office with Frederick. She went to freshen up and get ready for dinner. The family sat for dinner. Everyone was eating except Sapphire."How is the food?" Everybody looked at her. "I mean I prepared the food, so how is it?"Clifford choked on the food in his mouth, Brielle and Fredrick stared at her with wide eyes."Why did you make the food?""It's my way

    Brielle was dressed in an evening black silk gown Frederick sent for her with a set of jewelry, and black heels. The driver was already waiting for her. He took her to the venue, Frederick was waiting for her. It was a nice restaurant. "Welcome to Peak Grandeu, do you have a reservation?""Yes, Mr. Davis.""Oh, this way." "You look amazing." "Thanks." They sipped on their wine as they waited for their order to arrive. "How was work today?""I won't say it's the same, you didn't come today. You spoilt Nate, he has been quibbling about his work today." Brille giggled. The waiter arrived with their meal, and they started eating. "What's your plan after the six months?""According to our deal, I will quit working for him, and he is bound to get another employment for me in another company." "Oh, that's a nice one. Are you still considering that?""Why not.""I was thinking, maybe when the contract is over, you can move here." "That's nice, but I can't leave Nana." "Not at all, yo

The mother and daughter played out their role so well. "Lucy, come sit, you need rest." She sat near her husband with a fulfilled heart, the discussion with the Doctor was a success. "Brielle you didn't travel again?"Before she could reply to her, the doctor came in."Mr. Davis, can I speak to you for a minute?" They went to the end of the room. "I'm sorry, I don't think you are vital enough to donate blood." "Why?""Any markdown in your blood will affect you.""How bad can it be?""I will say, sixty-thirty." Frederick peered over his son, and back at the doctor. "Do it.""What?""I said you should do it." "Sir, I understand that you want to save your son, but you are endangering yourself. There are so many options.""What are the options?""Your daughter can be a good match." They looked

    The door creaked and Anastasia peered into the office. "Lucy." She called out, but got no response. She closed the door behind her and left. "But the nurse said she came here, where could she have gone to? My poor baby, she must be drained with this." "That was a close catch." The duo came out from behind the cabinet."Your mother in law must still love you so much still." "Clinton it's time for you to go, and please take care of the doctor, he knows more than he should." "I know baby, that's what I'm doing.""And don't ever call me your baby.""I know you like the name, has Ford ever used such endearment for you."She rolled her eyes at him, and stormed out. "Be careful on your way out, you might run into Anastasia or worse still, Ford."Lucy faked her expression before walking into Clifford's ward. The two pairs of eyes in the room turned and looked at her. "Where have you been, I went looking for you." Anastasia queried when Lucy got in."I went outside for a brief time.""Com

Brielle stood certified on her spot, she never expected him to be here so soon. “George.” She called out not knowing what to do at that moment, whether to jump on him, she was excited seeing him after such a long time, but she tried to hold her excitement because the situation didn't call for it.He walked over to her standing a foot away from her, they could feel each other breath.“Let's go inside.” She blurted when they stood there for some time, before she could comprehend what was happening, he drew her closer to his chest and hugged her.“I missed you.” He said as he ran his finger on her back, Brielle was lost in his scent and wished not to be separated from him again. But it eventually had to come to an end, he detached from her and held her hand leading her inside.“Hi, Dad.” She greeted when she saw her Dad sitting in the living room. “How was your date?” He asked trying to get a reaction from George, and he su

    Brielle was surprised at how she anticipated seeing him.“Does this mean that I missed him?” She asked herself. “No, I didn't” She pinched her cheeks, her phone rang bringing her out of her thinking, and her stomach slipped immediately after seeing the caller.“Hi.” She said when she picked up the call.“How are you?” “I'm fine.”“I got your test.” She sent him a ‘thank you’ test for allowing her to stay in his place and that she would be staying in her father’s house.She hesitated before she answered.“Yeah.”“Elle, can we meet up today?” She gave it a thought, not knowing what to say, what if George arrives while she is out to meet him?“I'm still here.”“Huh, sorry about that, yeah we can meet.” She said before she could even give it another thought.“Ok, I will pick you up in the next few minutes.”“Yeah, ok bye.” The call disconnected, and she stared at herself in the mirror, she never planned on seeing him so soon, until she got her life together and solved things out with Ge

    “Elle, please listen to me.” George let out immediately as she picked up the call. The other side went quiet at his words. “I'm really sorry for the way everything is playing, all I'm asking is that we meet, I want to tell you everything, I want you to see the truth in all of this, which will be better if we meet.”She didn't reply and disconnected the call, she stared at her phone like it was a foreign object, before dropping it and going into the bathroom not before making a mental note to call Nana when she comes out.She stepped out of the bathroom a few minutes later and picked up her phone to call Nana. “Nana.” She called out immediately the call line connected.“Elle, you scared me.”“I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking right and left.”“I understand, but try to kill this old woman before her time, she has a lot to do.” Brielle giggles at her words.“Nana, you are old, what else do you plan to do?”“Witness you walk down the aisle and then carry your baby.” Brielle ran her fingers a

    She heard a knock on her door, and she took in a deep breath before going to open the door, knowing who was behind it.“Just hear me out, please.” She blurted immediately she opened the door and saw him standing there.“I'm so sorry the way things turned between us, I never wished it happened this way.” It was like she couldn't remember all the have practiced to tell him, nothing was coming out of her mouth again. She stood rooted at her spot gaping at him.“I understand, I also wish my heart didn't have to make such a decision, I'm sorry for allowing you to get in my head.” Brielle felt bad at his words, she was all ready to give him a try but with her present situation, it would be impossible.“Noah please don't say it like that, I wish this was another circumstance I would have accepted you, but with my present condition I can't.”“Brielle I knew of your condition before pouring my heart to you.” “No, you don't about it, how would it make you feel if I accepted your request while

    “This Is Brielle.”“Oh.”“Is Noah with you?”“Yes.”“Could you please give him the phone?”“He is sleeping right now, after going on and on about how you are avoiding him because he confessed to you about how he feels.”“I wasn't avoiding him, I was only trying to get my shit life together and face him.”“You should tell him that when he returns.”“When is he coming back?”“I don't know, but he thinks leaving the house will give you the space you want and make you move freely.”Brielle felt bad instantly at his words.“Please when he gets up, tell him to call me, I want to speak with him.”“I will do just that.” She disconnected the call immediately and slumped in her bed.Everything seemed to be happening so fast, she taking the risk to confess her love to George, only to walk in on the most unimaginable news, and then Noah, she didn’t know why he chose to do this at this vulnerable time, her stomach churned to remind of another problem she was facing, she felt nauseous and ran to th

    Brielle was perplexed after last night's event, she never expected Noah to go about the whole situation in that manner, he didn't allow her to say anything, asking her to think about it. She stayed awake the whole of the night trying to digest the whole situation happenings in her life. She was overwhelmed by her growing feelings for him, but her heart still aches whenever she remembers George.“I wish things didn't go this way.” She held her hair tightly, groaning.“I can't even look him straight in the eyes.” She stayed in bed most of the morning lamenting the way things turned out.The knock on her door brought her back from reverie. She walked reluctantly to the door, knowing the person behind it. “You should come down and eat, you have been up all night.”“Huh.” She let out, surprised how he knew. “I will be down in a few minutes.” She shut the door immediately and leaned her back against it. “Shit he knew, but how.” She smirked at nobody before dashing into the bathroom to ge

    “Have you been able to reach out to her yet?” Michael asked George who sat behind his desk working on his system.“I think I will give her a little time to get over all the drama.” He replied.“Do you know where she is now?” “She flew out of the country, probably she is with her father.” “I think you should try to reach out to her now.”“I would like to do this the way I wish.”“Anything that goes well for you.” Michael left his office with that. George decided to give Brielle a space after he found out last night that she left the country. Maybe it will help her to calm down. ***************“It's been two days, won't you ask why I'm here?” Brielle asked Noah as they had their dinner. “I believe you tell me when you are comfortable.” She shrugged it off and continued with her food, she was surprised by his action, she expected him to throw questions at her, but he kept his calm and didn't bother her. She wanted him to ask her what the problem was, she wanted to see him care, but

    “I'm here to see George.” “And who are you?” The Secretary sized Sapphire, “And any appointment with him?”She glared at him and walked towards the office.“No no, you can't just go to his office.” He ran from his desk to stop her, but before he could get to her, she sprinted and ran into the office. “What the hell are you doing here?” George half yelled when Sapphire burst into his office.“I'm sorry sir.” The secretary apologized. “And you let her pass you, I don't think you need this job anymore if you can't handle an intruder.”“I'm so sorry sir.” he apologized again with his head bowed, scared to stare at him in the eyes. “I think you should face me, not him.”“And what the hell do you think you are doing in my office?”“Ohh, I knew it, I was a fool to be nothing to your promises.” The secretary took that as his cue to leave.“Just leave now, we will sought everything out later.”“No no, I ain't going anywhere, we will talk here and now, and I demand answers to my questions,

    Brielle woke up all sore, she felt a heavy hand draped around her waist, she noticed George stir, and she closed her eyes again. She missed his touch the seconds he removed his hand from her waist, but she refused to open her eyes. “When will you be tired of pretending?” She closed her eyes tight, she felt him peck her on her lips, he lingered on her lips for quite a time.“Get off me.” She jerked up from the bed, pushing his chest.“I thought that's what you wanted.” He smirked, and she rolled her eyes at him. She tried to get down from the bed, but her legs betrayed her, and her thighs were hurting. She knew she needed his help to get to the toilet, but she was hesitant to ask him.“Do you need my help?”“You wish, I could get there by myself.”“Are you sure, 'cause I thought I heard you hiss?”“Quite well, thanks.”He turned and continued working with his laptop. “I thought you wanted to leave the room.”“You want me gone?”“No, yes.” She answered confused, as she couldn't bear t
