Zina's POV

“Uncle, why are you looking like that?” I commented as I walked up to my uncle, who looked like he was just a wild animal because of how tattered, and bruised he looked. His clothes looked ruffled like he was rough handled, and also stained with blood, which I presumed was his.

I don't even know whether I'm supposed to laugh or not, but whatever I was feeling at the moment I held it in because people were giving him a questioning gaze.

I rushed to help him up, but he jerked me off. “Let go of me! I'm going to ruin everyone here! How dare they mess with me!” My uncle bragged, and I felt ashamed.

It was true that the Blackwood has influence in the country, but that was because of our legacy, the current Blackwood couldn't shake the country like before, and threatening so many influential people at once wasn't a good thing.

“Uncle, I know you are mad, but don't you think it's unreasonable to threaten so many people at once,” I warned.

He looked around with a scornful gaze, a

    Tyson's POV I watched as Zina followed her uncle out, and I felt a disturbing feeling like something was wrong with her, could I be wrong?“That's none of my business, she abandoned me, so I don't see a reason I have to care for her.” I mumbled under my breath, but I saw an ugly woman approaching me, and I hissed in frustration.“Hi, you look incredible, and…” she was saying, but I cut her off. “I'm sorry, but I'm married.”She looked shocked with my words, but I didn't care. “Married? But you don't have a ring on your finger, maybe you are trying to push me off.” She said.“You think? Then I think you are smart enough to catch on.” I said as I walked out of the ballroom leaving people to enjoy the party I organized because my plan to humiliate Luther Blackwood was successful.“Why are you coming out so early, boss?” Victor asked as he got out of the car, while opening the door for me. “That’s because the party is over. Luther Blackwood was completely humiliated.”“Wow! That means th

    Zina's POV It has been a week since I met Tyson at the gala, and my anxiety level has doubled compared to the time. I couldn't get anything done after I found out Tyson's new identity.I should be happy, but I knew his new identity would get Anna in more trouble than I actually wanted.This is so messed up!“Zina!” I heard a voice behind me, and I jolted out of my thoughts to find myself standing in front of the company's elevator with my friend, Caroline beside me and she looked worried.“Good morning, Caroline. Reporting to work?” I asked. “Yes, but why do you look so lost in thought, it's still morning.” Caroline berated, as we both walked into the elevator, and she pressed the buttons to our floors.“I know, but I have a lot of things on my mind.” “And what's that?” She asked.“Tyson is back.” I breathed, and Caroline's eyes went wide in shock. She has been my friend for the longest time, and she knew the history between Tyson, and I even though not all, but she knew enough to g

    Zina's POV I was stunned to hear that, just like everyone in the room. I knew the group was in dire need of investors for the new project, but I didn't understand why Tyson, who has so much pent anger towards our family suddenly wanted to propose a deal.No one would fall for that.“Mr. Reed, I think there must be a mistake we have..” I was talking, but my uncle cut off my words. “What did you mean when weighing options became a problem, and I said earlier that Mr. Reed has a better proposal for us.” My uncle says.I watched as the man, who followed Tyson, which I suspected to be his assistant, went around with a proposal, and he handed one to me.I gazed through the proposal, and my eyes widened when I saw the amount Tyson was investing in the project.“$100,000,000?” I screamed, and everyone in the room was equally surprised. That's a lot of money, and even though our company has amassed wealth we aren't worth more than, and I glanced at Tyson wondering why he would invest that mu

    Zina's POV I walked back to the boardroom, and I wasn't surprised that Craig was still having a meeting with my uncle, and from his gaze, I could tell that it wasn't going well.“How could you go back on your words, Mr. Blackwood? You begged me to make this investment, and..” I heard Craig say that, but my uncle cut him off.“Why are you acting as if you did that because you like me, you asked for something in return too, didn't you?” My uncle asked, as he glanced at me, and I felt disgusted.Did he ask me to take over the project because he made a deal with Craig? How messed up could he be?“Maybe you are right, but with what you just did I could already tell you aren't a good business partner, so I'm calling off the deal.” I heard Craig say, and his partners agreed.“Oh really? That's bad, but don't worry your little investment won't be missed.” He said, and Craig walked out of the boardroom angrily, but not without having a word with me.“Did you know about this?” He asked.“Do I

    Tyson's POV The drive home after I left Blackwood corporation was silent, as Victor didn't say a word even though I could tell that he had a lot of things to say.“Stop sighing already, and ask away.” I breathed out after getting enough of his constant sighs.“I'm sorry, I didn't know that my sighs got on your nerves, but I don't understand why you are investing so much in the Blackwood corporation if you want it. You can get it without investing.” He says.“And who says I'm investing?” I asked, with a smirk. The meeting with Luther Blackwood today was all a camouflage because I knew a man like himself would trust even a conman as long as money was involved. I needed to blind him with money, so his fall could be more severe. “Oh, you are not then I don't think Miss Blackwood needs to be concerned then.” He said as he resumed going through the iPad in his hands.My jaws tightened hearing Zina's name, and my mind jolted back to our interaction earlier. I didn't know what came over me

    Zina's POV I was dragged to the bar after a long day at work by Carolina, even though I wanted to back out, but she didn't take a no for an answer.“I don't understand why we have to be here when we have to go back to work early tomorrow.” I said as I took a seat, not without the drunk men gawking at my friend, and I.“That's the point girl, you need to have a hangover so you don't get hung over at work.” She said with a wink, and I shook my head at her crazy utterance.We ordered drinks, and not long enough we were drowning ourselves in liquor, but I made sure to drink little because my uncle would flip if I missed work because of a hangover.“So, tell me, how do you feel seeing Tyson again?” Carolina asked.I paused with her question, but I quickly masked my expression. “Nothing, it was great seeing him again.” I lied.When I saw him after a long time, I thought my heart was going to burst because of excitement, and I was scared too. Scared that my uncle was going to tear him apart

    Zina's POVTyson dragged me to the bar entrance, but I tried to get back in because I was scared that the man might be really dead. What if he got locked?“Are you crazy? We should go back in to check if he is alive?” I said, but he hissed in frustration.“Are you kidding me, right now? I just saved you, and you wanted to give back in?” He asked. “Yes, I just can't leave a man to bleed to death! I have to help him.”“You have to help him? Did I misunderstand the situation?” He blurted.“What did you mean?” I asked.“Maybe the man wasn't harassing you after all. What are you now? A slut that sells her body after..” Tyson said, but I cut him off with a slap.“What? A slut? You have really lost your mind? How dare you…you should know that I'm not that kind of person, but what do I know, you aren't the Tyson I knew.” I heaved.“And so? Are you also the Zina I knew? Definitely not because you are just a pathetic liar? Everything about you was a lie!” He screamed, and I saw hurt in his eyes

    Zina's POV I smiled awkwardly as I stared at Tyson, who was prying to see who I was hiding behind her, but I couldn't let that happen.“Hello, Mr. Reed, nice running into you.” I flushed.“You didn't run into me, but I came here to meet you, so can you answer my questions now?” He asked, and I nodded my head.I cracked my head on what you said, but I knew there was no way I would admit that Anna was our child together.“She is Carolina's daughter, you know her, right?” I said, still hiding her behind me.Carolina, I apologize, but I really need to save myself, I mulled in my head, but I noticed that Tyson didn't buy the story.“Really? Then where is that Carolina?” He asked, and I bit my lips knowing that he would find it suspicious that I was babysitting my friend's daughter so early in the morning.“That's because she slept at my place last night.” I blurted.I was so stunned at how smooth my lies were, but I wasn't planning to back down. While I was looking for Tyson, I thought he

    Zina's POV I lost myself in the kiss as his lips touched mine, I felt a jolt of electricity run through my entire body. His mouth was warm and gentle, and I couldn't help but melt into the kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss, and felt his hands slide around my waist, pulling me closer. The world around us faded away, leaving only the two of us, lost at the moment. His touch, kiss was just the way I remembered..soft yet passionate.“Mhmm mhmm,” I moaned into the kiss as Tyson's tongue wagged in my mouth.“Ahh!” I heard a scream behind us, and that jerked me away from Tyson as I broke the kiss, and I turned around to see Carolina gaping at us with her mouth wide open.“Carolina..it's not like that,” I tried to explain, but it looked like I already traumatized the girl.“No, don't explain it's my fault. I should have knocked before I entered, maybe I would have saved myself from such a premium X-rated show.” She said, and fled out of the room.“Carolina, it's..s

    Zina's POV The past few days have been eventful, but I could be bothered because Anna, and Tyson were currently in the surgery room for the bone marrow transplant surgery.“Everything will be fine, Zina.” Carolina consoled me as we both got our eyes fixed on the surgery room door, and the sign which indicated the surgery was still in progress.“Why don't you sit down? You have been standing for a long time?” Sister Mary asked, but I shook my head.“No, Anna is in there fighting for her life, what kind of mother will be if I can't even do this much.” I replied, and we all stood in silence.I wasn't a prayer person, but I prayed so hard, hoping that God wouldn't forsake me, and he didn't.“Zina!” Carolina called as the doctor walked out of the surgery, and my eyes glistened with tears seeing Anna wheeled out of the surgery room.“Oh my baby!” I mumbled, as I got closer, but the nurses prevented me from getting close.“You can't see her yet, Miss Blackwood, we still need to monitor her.

    Tyson's POV Flashback After I left the hospital that night, I was informed that some of my men were attacked in our warehouse, and when I got there the condition wasn't friendly. Some of my men were lying on the floor in pain.Who dare attack me?“What's going on here!” Victor screamed, but I used that opportunity to check the condition of the warehouse. Of course, I felt some presence which meant that whoever attacked my man was nearby or still around.“I will check the boss,” Victor said, but I joined him. “Are you okay?” I asked my men, and they all replied while they crawled up from the floor. I couldn't ask them what happened because I was sure that they wouldn't know.They were probably attacked before they could even react.“Take the injured out of here, and I will handle the rest,” I ordered Victor, and even though he looked as if he had another opinion he went along. The injured men were escorted out of the warehouse, and my other men stood guard.“That's enough hide and s

    Tyson's POV I ran to the hospital like a crazy person, not minding what people think of me, but my steps skipped when I saw a familiar figure standing frozen at the entrance of the emergency unit.“Zina?” I called, as I walked closer, and my lips broke into a smile when she turned.“Tyson? Is that you?” She asked running towards me, and before I could understand what was going on, she engulfed me into a hug.“Oh my goodness, you are alive!” She screamed hugging me tightly, and I relaxed into her hug. The past few days had been crazy, and I couldn't believe I could see her again after all what that has happened.“I was so worried, where have you been!” Zina muffled as she hit my back, but I winced in pain when she hit a sore spot.“What's that sound? Are you okay?” she asked. “Yes, I'm fine.” I replied as we disengaged from the hug. We stayed silently for a while, just gazing into each other's eyes, and I noticed that she looked tired to the last time we saw. I could already tell wha

    Zina's POV“Why is this connecting!” I flared in anger, and I almost threw my phone away. It has been 2 days, and Tyson hasn't shown up at the hospital nor has he returned my calls. I didn't know what to think of that.“Are you still on this?” Sister Mary asked, taking a seat beside me in the hallway, and I sighed.“Tyson hasn't returned any of my calls, aunt, what if something bad has happened to him?” I blurted running my hands through my hair in frustration.I couldn't help but have bad thoughts about things that could go wrong. Anna's surgery date has already been scheduled, Tyson hasn't shown up for days, and I couldn't help but lose my mind.“Maybe he is busy.” Sister Mary said, but I shook my head.“That's not possible, you know Tyson isn't that responsible, or perhaps he travelled for business and..” I gave a lot of excuses, neglecting the sick thought that was creeping in.The day passed quickly, and it was already evening with no sign of Tyson, I ran out of excuses, so I ju

    Zina's POV It has been a week since we found out that Tyson is a match to be a bone marrow donor for Anna, and it has also been a week since the daughter, and father duo has started bonding. Even though I haven't told Anna about Tyson's identity, she was strangely close with him, but I thought I was just being paranoid.“Why are you so deep in thought?” Sister Mary asked as she took a seat beside me on the bend in the hospital's playground for children while we watched Tyson play with Anna.“Nothing.” I replied.“They look so lovely together!” Sister Mary gushed over Tyson, and Anna's interaction, and I couldn't help but admit it. They indeed looked great together, and I couldn't help but feel bad that I deprived both of them of netting earlier. And also with the situation that we were in I felt even more guilty.“And don't beat yourself up too much, it's not because of you that things turned out like this, you tried your best.” She said, patting my shoulder, and I felt comforted.

    Luther's POV “That sly fox!” I screamed as I threw things around the room. I couldn't believe that I just got fooled by my niece.Zina has always been the only person I gave absolute control over due to her weakness, but I couldn't believe she could keep the information about Tyson Reed from me.“How could I have missed that!” I hollered, and punched the table. My study room was already a mess, but I didn't care. I have more things to worry about, and Tyson Reed was on the top of my priority list.“Dad, what's going on here?” Ethan asked, as he stepped into the room. “Are you this mad because Zina left home amidst her engagement? Don't worry I will talk to..”“Shut up! I can't believe that I have to listen to your nonsense right now!” I berated him.I raised a fool as a son, which was why I needed more power to sustain the group. If he were capable enough, the group wouldn't have been in a chokehold.“I'm sorry, dad, but what's going on?”I explained what I found out after visiting

    Tyson's POV My men searched around the hospital, but we couldn't find Anna. Zina was already losing her kindness as she ranged every kid she came across even when they didn't look 4 years old. “Calm down, Zina, I'm sure she is still in the hospital.” I said, but she didn't listen as she rushed to the pediatrics ward. I have strong convictions that she was still in the building because the CCTV footage wasn't tampered with, and it showed Anna leaving the room herself so she has to be somewhere. I went back to her ward floor, and I searched around even though maybe we missed something, but my gut told me to enter the room. I looked around the room, and when I didn't find Anna I decided to walk out, but a sniff sound hit my attention.“Is anyone there?” I hollered, and no response, so I was prompted to look under the bed, and there she was.A frail-looking girl, squatted under the hospital bed, with the most innocent looking eyes that looked like mine, my daughter, Anna was hiding un

    Zina's POV I watched as Tyson walked away, and I felt my heart break so hard. I knew what I did to him, I needed to protect Anna, so I couldn't do that. “Maybe you should have told him.” I heard a voice behind me, and I jerked in fear.“Sister Mary, can you please be making sounds!” I screamed, as I looked at the middle-aged woman, who looks like she has had it out for me.“Perhaps you wouldn't look this spaced out if you have been up to something good,” she says.I couldn't blame her for being sarcastic, she has already asked me to tell Tyson about Anna, but I felt that I could take care of my daughter myself.“I know you have a lot to say sister Mary, but Anna needs you, I will be joining you soon after I wiped my face in the restroom.” “Ok, don't be long Anna is suspecting that she might be sick, and you know when she catches up on things she doesn't let go.” she says, and I nod my head.I gave birth to smartypants.“Ok, I won't be long.” I said, and she left.
