When she had laid Keturah to rest, Tanya gently left the room and close the door behind her with a huge sigh of relief. Her eyelids are growing heavy at this moment but she tried her best to get a grip and walked to the living room. There, Kenneth was sitting on the sofa reading files. He lifts his head up to look at her and removed the Harry Potter doppelganger goggle he was wearing. "She's asleep?" He asked. Tanya nodded feeling awkward around him, she didn't know maybe you say she's leaving or she actually has nowhere to go. "Em.... I..." "You can't leave again for tonight, it's late, you're free to sleep over and leave tommorow" He interrupted. Tanya's heart leapt with joy, she didn't know if she should be thankful or not but a pleasant smile spread across her face. Kenneth stood up and walked towards the room beside Keturah's and opened the door. Tanya entered the room with her bags and was marvelled at the arrangement of the room. She gasped. This is when Kenneth realiz
The next morning, Celine who came around early in the morning and Keturah who was already dressed for school scratched their heads as Kenneth and Tanya stood before them. Kenneth and Tanya both had terrible looks on their faces as if they fought although the night. Tanya wore a sexy styled office outfit she had picked from Celine's dress which defined her womanly curves with precision.Kenneth scrabbled something on her writing pad and showed it to Tanya who almost shout on the girl as she read what she wrote, "What happened between you and dad?" "As your dad who never fulfills his promises" She quipped. Kenneth shot her a glance and replied with a suave tone, "Is that coming from someone that's seducing me? Huh, such a shameless woman" Keturah moved close to him and showed him the writing pad and his response was really very rude, "Ask your nanny! You asked me to bring her in, I never thought she had this so much ambitions for coming close to you" The two glared at each other
The black piece of cloth that was used to cover Tanya was removed suddenly when the car has stopped and she was brought out. Throughout the ride, she didn't bother herself to struggle with her captors as she knows it will be very useless there is only one person who could be the orchestrator of this; RYAN GRIFFIN! The dimly lit room casted a shadow in the man sitting on the chair opposite where Tanya was. He stood up gingerly and ordered the men to release her. True to her speculations, it was Ryan Griffin. He had a malicious smirk on his face immediately they looked at each other. "As expected of my blood sister who is also my sister-in-law you look very carefree" He said. Tanya was breathing heavily and not replying him. She stood there thinking of all possible ways to escape this but no Idea came to her mind."I invited you for a drink, shall we?" He asked as he threw a bottle of alcohol to her but Tanya refused to catch and let it smatch on the floor. After a while, she clea
Kenneth covered her with his coat when they got into the car. The ride was a very silent and boring one as they drove towards Kenneth's home. Kenneth didn't say anything, she was also busy trying to gather her thoughts. When they got inside, they met Keturah already asleep and a sticky note pasted on her cheeks saying, "Lovebirds, I have feed your dear daughter but she refused to sleep without her father and Miss Tan here" Tanya smiled and made to touch the girl but she jerked awake immediately. "Miss Tan, I was waiting for you" She wrote on her pad.Tanya sat down and pulled the girl in her embrace and she fell asleep almost immediately as if she had been waiting to sleep in her embrace.Kenneth offered to make dinner as the workers have retired for the night. Tanya sat there patting Keturah in the head while thinking if what Ryan said earlier. Kenneth didn't remember her, and if he eventually does, will he ever forgive her for loosing his child whine he cherished so much?As
The next morning started on a very boring note. In the corner of the dinning room, Celine watched Tanya and Keturah who were in the living room with a smile on her face. Tanya sat on the sofa while Keturah sat on the small stool and Tanya keeps packing and repacking her long hair while she was busy on her books and a headphone on her ear. Keturah was so much engrossed in her books that an onlooker would thought she was cared about the person packing her hair but Celine could notice that she stole pictures of Tanya time to time. Celine was surprised as well as the most of the servants when she arrived and realized that she had gotten closer to Kenneth and she will be living with them for a long while. After all the conversations with Kenneth the previous night, she thought she wouldn't slept well especially when she will be sleeping beside the little girl but she had woke up naturally without even a dream to break the peace. When Keturah woke up, Cecilia had greeted her
Tanya stood in daze like one in maze. Kenneth is getting his memories back? If he could remember all the love advances between them, then then he would gradually remember her one day. Celine moved to her side and whispered, "Don't you feel Brother Kenneth seems to be different today? Or something had affected his brain again?" "I think so. He's gradually retuning to the Kenneth we both know" She said absentmindedly.. Kenneth sat down on the sofa as if waiting for her to gather her thoughts. Tanya moved closer to him and asked again. "I get that you're regaining your memory, but did you have to go this far for an ordinary event?" Kenneth sighed and said aloud so that could the make up could hear, "If you're not satisfied with Jillian, shall I call another person?" Jillian Kim didn't say anything, he only stood there looking at the rhapsody with two adults. Being called when he should be travelling by someone that offered to pay double his salary, Jillian had to stay and list
After dropping Tanya off at hall after which she left with great efforts, Keturah, Kenneth and Jillian Kim were the only occupants of the large minivan. Before she left, Tanya had felt awkward and nervous about the styling and the dresses she was wearing. Her mind and heart was in great turnout as she tried to figure out what Kenneth was thinking. 'Is he pretending not to remember me?' she wondered. When he was done, Keturah was the first to whisper into her ears "You look beautiful Miss Tan, I'm sure that dad will love it'Tanya pinched her cheeks with affection and smiled. "Your dad will love it for sure" she replied knowingly. Before standing up to look at herself in the mirror and very soon, the car pulled into a stop, Tanya checked the time! She was 10 minutes late for the event. Kenneth entered the back of the minivan through a door that connects it to the driver's seat, Tanya crossed her hand over her chest with a smirk waiting for him to talk. "How is it?" She asked f
Ryan and Bianca stands aside and watched how everyone diverts attention to her. Ryan nudged her silently, "Just stick to my side, we must end her today, Kenneth is not by her side" "We plan to Kidnap hee after leaving this event, are you telling me that I came here abd won't get Kenneth? He doesn't remember Tanya, we must change his mind to make him think I'm his wife!" Bianca became petrified and worrisome shimmered in her forehead. Ryan heaved a long sigh of anger and frustration, "Must you always prove that you're stupid? How an we do that without kidnapping her? You should be ashamed that you slept with me and also want my brother!" Without warning, Bianca kept shut.From where she was standing, Tanya's phone rang, she picked it up gingerly and answered, "Yes?""How is the place? Have you made your speech?" Tanya, even though a smile was plastered to her face, she rolled her eyes and shot back, "Will I pick your call if I'm on stage?" "If the reporters ask you any question
As the doctor dropped this bombshell, everyone went temporarily quiet. Nobody knows-maybe they should be happy or not that Mrs Linda will be dying soon.After seeing that she was okay, everyone went back home and yet no one questioned Charles Griffin.When it was up to some level, Bianca got tired of the too precarious silence that had pervaded the air since they all got back home and had dinner.Everyone was in the sitting room all bored because the talkative Mrs Linda was still at the hospital“Why is everyone so gloomy? We are all happy until this morning then what is the fuss all about now?” She asked angrily.“Bianca you can’t……” Ryan was about to stop her from talking at this serious moment bust she yanked his hand away. “Let me talk this house is being too boring, since the man that wanted us to get married called it off don’t you think we should all go back home?”“I agree with that. Dad you were the one that insisted that Sis Bianca and Bro Ryan get married, Mum said you wer
Ryan had gotten outside and was about to open his car when he saw a damsel in distress paddling towards the house with difficulty.He at first wanted to ignore it but became numb as soon as he saw the damsel clearly. It was Bianca.Ryan almost fainted from shock as he rushed to her.The blue dress didn't look that great anymore but still very much good. She was so beautiful but she looked very pale as her make-up had been smeared with the sweat."Did you wait long?" Bianca said finally spoke to him while breathing heavily"His eyes were glued at her. Seeing her with the almost damaged make-up made him very angry so he hastily brought out his handkerchief to wipe it all away."Ryan, I'm getting punished" Bianca sobbed against his chest after he had wiped it all away."What happened?" He asked gently.She was now sobbing again. "Ryan, Frank did all these. He planned all these so we won't be able to get engaged"Ryan's heart clenched and he patted her back gently. "I'm very happy to have
"What happened?" She asked the driver who obviously looked shocked."A woman just throw herself before the car as of she wants to kill herself" The driver said with shaky voice.Celine strained her neck and saw the woman lying in the middle of the road, she was surprised so she hoped out of the car since many others had stopped and walked to the woman who shouted on him immediately."Did you want to kill me for real because you're rich? Your driver just hit me!" She yelled drawing all attention to them.Bianca who was inside the car turned her attention at the tirade happening outside. The woman continued aggressively. "With your expensive car, you almost broke my legs, I will not leave here until you fix me""But I didn't hit you? I stopped the car before I could bear you" The driver defended himself but this only put petrol to the already burning fire as the woman replied."Really? Even rich people driver's lie now? What a life. Everyone see what they are doing I'm sure it must be
BEFORE FRANK AND KENNETH'S ARRIVAL (10:50am)Meanwhile, Tanya got to the venue before Kenneth. But Kenneth was just after her when he had packed his car and made to enter the place after his wife, he sighted Frank Harper coming out of the cab.Kenneth was surprised at his audacity to come to such event so he walked up to him before he could enter and asked."Why are you so shameless Frank Harper? How can you still be able to come to Bianca's engagement even after all that happened?"Frank's expression was sour. He looked at Kenneth for a long time without a word wishing he could know all that Ryan and Bianca wanted to do but he stopped it."Frank I'm talking to you. Are you that bitter or that rude?" Kenneth was angered by his reaction and silence and he hates it when someone actually looks at him this way.Sighing with his arms crossed on his chest, Frank asked, "Bianca and Tanya are my exes so why shouldn't I be at her engagement?""But still it's still not a honorable thing, what i
Celine opened it and a group of people came in. One man and two women.Celine gasped as she saw the man who came in. It was Jillian Kim, the man who came to style Tanya on the company's anniversary. Celine who was present that day was shocked that such expensive make-up artist was called again. Bianca gasped with shock, she only heard of Jillian Kim who was a celebrity make-up artist and haven't met him before. Seeing him here only make her more aghast with shock. "Hello Miss Celine, is this the bride?" Jillian Kim who was now Inside fully with his two helpers which he doesn't bring on the day he came for Tanya asked.Celine was smiling foolishly as she replied, "Yes she's my brother's wife. How have you been Jillian?" But Jillian didn't smile back it was evident that he was a gay. Jillian is a celebrity beautician in the country so it's normal that he's a gay. As long as Bianca could remember, being gay out in the open is considered a disgrace but Jillian Kim became a celebrity
“Aunt, Bianca is not from my mum and even if mum is alive, She won't be able to give her gift because she's not her real mother and Bianca won't take it" Tanya said and exited without waiting for reply. The women kept quiet for a while a s Mrs Linda's fist were clenched at Tanya's intrusion but one of the women broke the silence as she asked Sarah who was trying to avoid the conversation. "What are you planning on gifting the bride-to-be miss Sarah? I heard you're very close to Kenneth Griffin?"Sarah smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear. "Kenneth and I are not really that close we just dated for sometime in college, well I have brought an Elizabethan Jade wrist watch so I'll give her"“Oh, from which century?”“From the late 18th century.”Mrs Linda snorted, "You can't get me such thing on my birthday. Is that how much you wanted to show off?" Sarah pretended as if she didn't heard what she said, and quickly left the women's circle. She's yet to fathom what Mrs Linda was pla
Bianca's reply was defiant, "He confessed to me first. We both wanted this baby and we have decided to stop chasing what is not ours"Tanya smiled. She find it hard to believe what Bianca was saying but she beaconed Bianca to continue talking. "Sarah is Mrs Linda's cousin. The woman didn't know that Ryan has caught her so we have both decided to sabotage the engagement. Ryan hates his own mother so we... we want you and Kenneth to join hands with us"After Bianca was done, Tanya shot her a glance, she wondered what Bianca was doing. This is unlike her to be so obedient and wanted to do something for anyone she now understood what love could do. "But Ryan has already told me that we're going to reveal the truth together, so what is there t talk about and why is the afraid or shying about?" Tanya was amused. Bianca fidgeted with her fingers for awhile before replying, "Ryan wanted to work at Griffin Holdings, the company where he works will fire him soon saying he's a Griffin whose
This word was like a bombshell to the people that sitting around the dinning and of course all except Mrs Linda who smiled in approval. "When is the party so I can tell the Ryan in my class that my Uncle Ryan was getting married" Keturah's little voice interrupted the momentarily silence that pervaded the air. Tanya looked at her daughter with surprise, "Don't talk while eating Princess. Elders are talking here you should keep shut" The little girl shut her mouth immediately but Mrs Linda reached for her and patted her head, "It's this Saturday baby girl, bring anyone you want let them know you're the princess of the mighty Griffin family" Keturah scoffed without replying. Bianca was the first to after this. "But Ryan and I are cool without any engagement?" Everyone shook their head as if they approved of what she just said. Bur Charles Griffin was obstinate, "You should be happy about this and not to go against my decisions!" He said egomanially. Tanya almost scatter thier pr
Bianca walked up to them, Frank released Tanya and adjusted himself. Instead of replying, Tanya hissed and turned to leave but Bianca hel her back. "Where did you think you're going without answering my question?" Tanya rolled her eyes as if she just heard some jargon. "As you can see I rolled my eyes that's because I just heard jargon" Bianca gritted her teeth and dragged her hand, "Tanya Lewiston stop pulling my legs and stop trying to provoke me!! I was being this slow to you because of my husband you...." "Stop it! Your husband? When did you marry Ryan? Who and who were there when you exchanged the vows? This is our father-in-law did he agree to your relationship?" Frank gulped hard under the mask. Be looked at the two women he once loved arguing about another men he felt sad and cussed his luck. He cursed himself for leaving Tanya for the lowly Bianca and hated himself for not flying out of the country immediately after Bianca got pregnant. Now Bianca os preganant for him a
