Chapter Thirty Three

2024-10-29 19:42:56Lillian's eyes became blurry for a moment as she heard someone calling her name repeatedly. She felt a hand touch her and she jerked back to reality. She met Nathaniel's eyes and was surprised to see him alright. She moved her eyes to the floor where he had collapsed earlier and around the room, nothing was out of place.
She had just imagined that. How possible? What happened? How come? Nevertheless, she was grateful it was just her imagination. She would have never forgiven herself if anything should happen to him because of her. She had better kept quiet about everything. It was for the best.
"Why are you so out of it? Is everything okay?" Nathaniel asked.
Lillian forced a smile. "I don't know. I am sorry."

"Nath, I can explain everything to you. Please, just calm down. You really don't need this shock. Please, calm down." She gestured with her hand as tears welled up in her eyes."Calm down? Oh, my God! Did you just tell me to calm down? You lied to me, Lillian. You have been deceiving me and making me believe that you are not the one. You fooled me!" He shouted and a tear fell from his eye.She started weeping. "I am sorry. I am so..so sorry. I never meant to hurt you, I swear. I just wanted you to be happy. I never…""How long have you known?

The surgery had just gone six hours out of its twelve hours. Lillian had kept praying and crying non stop. Her phone started ringing and she excused herself from the waiting area to pick up the call from her personal assistant. "Hi, Jones. Yes, I am fine, thank you. My mum has told you? No problem, then. I bet you'll be fine with the works? Alright, thanks. No, everything is alright. Okay, bye." She hung up and looked up at the sky. It was past midnight and she was tired. She needed to sleep, but she wasn't even drowsy.Not when Nathaniel was in there, fighting for his life.She turned around and started walking back to the waiting area in front of the theater. She got there and noticed an older woman crying while Nest

Nathaniel's mother screamed and sat on the floor, weeping on top of her lungs. "I am doomed. I have no other reason to keep living. Nathaniel is my whole world," she cried.Lillian shook her head. "Doctor, he isn't dead. Please, go back in there and do something. Please. I can feel it. He is alive."Nester frowned as she wiped her tears. "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you deaf?" She covered her face out of frustration and cried."No, no, he's still alive. I don't believe what you're saying. He can't just leave like that. I still have a lot of things to say to him. So, he can't be dead. He is alive, doctor," L

"Lillian, I think you should go home and freshen up. You've been here since yesterday and you've not taken anything," Nathaniel's mother suggested as she went to meet her where she was standing by the ward Nathaniel was in and looking at him through the transparent glass on the door.The doctor had said they could not visit him yet and it would take them a while, until he was more stabilized and responding more to their treatments. So, they could only see him through the door. He had a breathing mask on his nose and Lillian could see the rapid rise and fall of his chest.She turned around and looked at his mother who had a swollen face. That made her wonder how bad hers would be. She shook her head at what she said

"Please, stay in the car. I'll be back in no time. I just need to get some of Nath's stuff," Lillian said to her best friend who had insisted on following her to the hospital. She smiled as Dorcas nodded and then alighted from the car and into Nath's house.She got in and went straight up the stairs to look for his bedroom and luckily, she found it on time, but it was occupied."Hey, hi," Linda said to her.Lillian paused her steps. "Hi, Li..llian" she replied,stressing the name intentionally. "What are you doing in his room? I don't want to say that you are here looking for something that Nester asked you to find."&nbs
HIDDEN PASSION Chapter Thirty Nine
Lillian decided there was no point in trying to fight for her life when she would die in a few minutes. One would think she truly would not be able to die that easily as she had bragged.But, wait a minute! Why was she breathing perfectly well and normal when she was being strangled? Strangled? There was not even a hint of pressure against her neck. What was going on? What was she doing, then? She looked at her, but her eyes were fixed on the door to the room."Linda!" Linda heard her name for the third time and she knew who that voice belonged to. She had no choice but to do what she was doing. "Let's go to the hospital. Nath's awake and he needs to see you first so we could introduce you to him," she heard.&nbs
HIDDEN PASSION Chapter Forty
Nester stood in akimbo as the doctor talked to her and Nathaniel's mother about Nath's quick recovery and how amazing it was for all the doctors who did the surgery. "It is really miraculous that someone would become conscious after that kind of surgery. It's all thanks to God," the doctor said. "During this recovery period, please do not talk to him about something that can unnerve or shock him. You can do this after he is fully recovered.""Thank you so much, doctor. Can he recognize faces now?" His mother asked, eager to know if her son's illness had been cured.The doctor nodded and smiled. "He will start recognizing faces that he sees now. You don't have to worry about that. He needs a whole lot of rest, so we won
HIDDEN PASSION Chapter Forty One
Nathaniel sat up on his hospital bed and looked at the sheet of paper in his hand. It was neatly folded but had been rumpled when it was pushed into his hand earlier by Linda as she held his hand. He did not know what was there, but he knew he should not have opened it in anyone's presence if she had to secretly give it to him.He opened the paper and read, "I know you're not in the right state of mind, but this is urgent. Come with the police to the address below. Warn the police, no sirens."What was that all about? He should go with the police? To do what? He felt the urge to ignore the missive and sleep since he was drowsy, but decided against it as she remembered something.

Nathaniel offered to drive the ladies home in Lillian's car that was brought to the place by the men. Nester had been taken away by the police to be investigated, but he still found it very hard to believe all what Linda explained to him about her. Nester was a loyal assistant to him, so he could not understand what could prompt her into killing.Lillian could not help but keep asking if he was okay and even begged Linda to drive instead of Nath which she gladly accepted and had Dorcas sit beside her while Lillian and Nathaniel sat behind them in the backseat. "Are you sure you're okay?" Lillian asked as he laced their fingers together. He kept smiling, but she could not lay a finger on the exact thing that could be making him smile.
