Aaron Samuel

"At this point, I will keep apologizing to everyone for all that I've done in the past. I'm truly sorry for everything and I know, I've done a lot of things, especially to you Mr. Steve" I turned to face Sophia's uncle as I said. "I know there's no amount of words coming out from my mouth that would make y'all believe me but, I want y'all to know that I'm now a changed person."

On a normal day, I wouldn't do all of these. Not because I didn't regret my actions but because my ego won't let me. But now, I'm glad I didn't let that get to me at this moment.

"Aaron, that's enough," Charlotte said. "You know, I believe you and I'm no longer upset at you. At first, I was so mad at you. Even though I know it was because of her you end up losing your memory making you not have any memory of her left, I couldn't control my anger the day you sent those divorce papers to her. But, I've come to realize that, non of what has happened is your fault."

    Charlotte CensatioImmediately those words came out from the doctor's mouth, I knew no one can save Sophia except Ivy. Only she can save my poor child at this point. Once he left, I asked for my phone and it was given to me. Without thinking about anything, I call her phone. Fortunately, she picked up the call on the first ring. "And, to what do I owe this pleasant call from you, Mrs. Censatio?" I could hear the irritating and mocking tone in her voice. "Ivy, you need to get here right now. You need to save Sophia" I said, breathlessly. She scoffs. "you must be crazy to ask me to come over there to save that useless daughter of yours. What business do you think, I have had with her? Whether she's poisoned or not, I don't care! Go ask the doctor to save her and not me, idiot!" "Wait, what?! You knew that she was poisoned? H.. how did you... how did you know about it?" I asked, stunned."I told you, didn't I? I'm always going to keep my eyes on you. Of course, I know about everythin

    Aaron SamuelHours LaterWe all saw the doctor walk straight toward us and I jumped up from where I was seating. "Where's my wife? How is she feeling now?" I asked him. "Well, we can save her all thanks to the blood Mrs. Gilbert gave but, unfortunately, she lost a lot of blood. The circulation of the blood was too thick and it affected her womb, I'm sorry. This might be really hard for you but, it will be hard for her to conceive again. But at the moment, her health is stable" "What?!!""I'm sorry" he said again."Are you telling me now that Sophia can't bear children?"Well, we still can not say hut for now, it will be hard considering the damage it has caused to her system. We only need to carry out one last test on her to fully know the status of her health. I think from there, we can proceed and find a way of it will be possible." "Why not do it now?""No, Mr. Samuel, this can only commence after she has fully recovered""And my daughter, she's fine, right? She's okay now?" Cha

    Sophia CensatioOh.. my... goodness! I can't believe this! He's.. he's here? I can't believe what I'm seeing right now. I can't believe that Aaron is here! Is he here for me? Is he worried about me and that's why he came all the way here to see me? Or, did Nathan call him and told about what has happened to me? I can't help it, I want to know the reason why he's here because I could still remember my last conversation with Nathan. He hasn't regained his memory yet so, it's hard for me to believe that he's here for me. Even though my head is telling me right now that he's here for me, my heart keeps saying otherwise. I want to believe it. I want to believe that he's here for me because the look and the expression on his face were so different from the ones I have come to see for the past few months since the very day he lost his memory. They all walked in and sauntered closer to where I was sitting on the bed. I'm still weak and it's hard to stand up. Again, I shifted my gaze to hi

    Sophia Censatio"You crazy girl! Who has asked you to speak" my uncle smacked Amanda's arm, as he said that. "Ouch! Dad! That was painful!" She exclaimed with a glare ok her face. I'm not bothered about that for now. I just need to understand what exactly is she trying to tell me, and, no one else wants her to say a word I look at my mom.. "mummy, what is going on here?" I asked. "Hey, my baby. You have to bother yourself over nothing. Nothing is going on. Of course, you know how your sister can be at times" "No, Sophia! A lot is wrong. Come on guys, we can't keep hiding the truth from her. Sophia, the doctor just confirmed to us that you are poisoned and, it has dangerously affected you. Sophia, you need to tell us, who was the last person you saw and talked to earlier this morning before you end up in such a state" she said, looking at me intensely."Wait, what?! Did you just say, poisoned?!! I... I can't believe that she tried to poison me! I had thought she was sincere with

    Sophia Censatio"My baby, what I'm about to tell you right now might make you hate me forever but please, you just have to listen to me, okay?" "You have to believe me, there's no way I would want to separate you from your biological mother but, everything was not my fault. I was led into this" mom said as she stared at me, intensely. "Can you just tell me what's going on already and stop beating round the bush, mom? I don't understand anything you're saying! You what me to accept the fact that this woman standing right in front of us here is my mom while the truth is, she's Cynthia's mother, mom! There's no way she's ever going to be my mom!" "Sophia, you need to stop saying those words out of your mouth, you're hurting me more with your words. You have to believe me, you're my biological daughter. I... I have proof that you're my child and here it's" she passed me an envelope as tears streamed down her cheeks. I look at her suspiciously before taking the paper from her. I do not

    Sophia Censatio"My husband asked who the baby was in his arms and he said it was his wife, Ivy. He brought you to me. Thomas also wanted me to feel like a mother and instead, I was asked to raise you. I initially refused because... It doesn't make sense but at the same time, I missed my daughter so much that I know I can ask for custody of my daughter but, when he said Ivy was close to her and looked around she truly cared because Cynthia was attached to her, I stopped all attempts."“I asked him if Ivy knew about the whole thing and he said no. He said it was planned with the doctor to make her think you were dead. Believe me, I didn't want to take you away from your mother, but I had no other choice. Sorry, Sophia." She said and burst into tears. I don't know if that's true because everything he says, makes no sense.I can't believe all of this. I can't believe her daughter is Ivy, and Ivy's daughter is with my mom.This all makes no sense!!!"Crazy woman! How dare you do this to m

    Sophia Censatio"I can't believe y'all are here." I said again with a smile on my face. "Yes. We were very concerned about what happened to you. Are you fine now?" Asked, Chloe."I'm fine, you all don't have to worry about anything." I tried to pretend I was strong. Before, they gave me short hugs one by one and kissed me on the cheek."Well... I'm still here" Aaron said, rolling his eyes."Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here." Lexy said jokingly, while all my friends burst into laughter."Did Leonard know you visited Joshua a week ago?" Aaron smiled and asked her. "You! Don't you dare say a word to him or I'll skin you alive!!" He smirked at her as she said that.No one can understand these two. Especially Aaron, who threatens her at every little opportunity that comes his way.“Well, if you say nice things to me. He laughed as he took his phone out of his pocket."Aaron!!! Don't dare! Alright! I'm sorry, you're the nicest person on the planet. I promise I'll never look down

Eight months ago, Aaron did his best in making it up to him and I must say that, he really tried his best. I almost had a misunderstanding with him because of that so called girl Alissa. He begged me and told me it was all a mistake. Everything happened when he lost his memory and he regretted his actions. I forgave him though and my parents, both my mom, I did forgive them also. Weeks later, I have no idea of what Cynthia was thinking, she came to me and apologized to my husband and I. Not only that, I also reconciled with my sister, Bianca and brother, Joseph too.

    Sophia CensatioThe doctor, who I assumed was a friend of Aaron's, checked my arm for a few minutes before looking up at him and telling Aaron that everything would be fine. She prescribed me medications and told me to take them constantly without missing them. She leaves the room and Aaron follows. I swear, I saw the look she gave my husband. A loving and seductive look. My whole body suddenly heated up with jealousy. I get up from Aaron's bed and follow them in silence without them noticing. I saw her cross her hand over her chest and give Aaron a seductive look. I knew it! I knew something was wrong when she bit her lip before leaving the room prematurely. "What are you doing Alissa?" Aaron asked her as she suddenly approached him and put her hand on his chest. I was very calm not to be noticed, even though I'm seething with rage right now. “Stop your stupid trick, idiot, tell her to stop touching you like that and you're my man. make her understand, idiot" I wanted to come out

    Sophia Censatio"Hmm," I mumbled. " What the hell ! How dare she?" he shouted angrily."He saved me from her, thanks to Jonathan who was there when she attacked me."“Damn it! I can't believe she's here to show her face and do this to you.” Saying that, he hissed.“Can we forget that for a moment? My right arm hurts Aaron." i cried for him.Before I knew what he was doing, he grabbed me, picked me up in a bridal style. "Aaron!!! What are you doing?" I asked him."Aaron, where are you taking me?" I asked again as he left my room. "That's up to me to know and up to you to find out." he says as he kisses my cheek."Okay, I don't know where you're taking me, but can you at least drop me off? I don't want people to see us like this," I said."Why? You are my wife. As much as I can proudly show you to the world, I don't care what other people think." He kissed my cheek again as he said that.Well, this person is no longer acting normal. I'm still surprised he wasn't totally upset after see

    Sophia Censatio"Sofia! Are you okay?" he asked again concerned. I look at him and sneered at him, I can't believe you had the courage to show me his face after everything he did to me. "Jonathan, what do you think you're doing here?"" how did you get into my room? who told you I was here?" I ask him questions.“Sofia, can you at least let me explain? You didn't let me explain and you're so upset at me for what-""Wait a minute, did you say upset?" I'm running out of patience now. “If I was upset at you, I would have told Aaron to put you in jail a long time ago. Listen, I have nothing to tell you. Get out of my room for now. I don't want to talk to you and I don't have to listen to you. Stay away and never come back. ""But Sofia, you...""I said you need to leave." I raised my hand to stop him from saying another word. My hands, shaking again. Now I can actually feel the pain behind my arm. I can't believe I hurt this arm badly earlier. "You're still the same, so stubborn," he sa

    Sophia Censatio"Oh! How did I forget you're not close and I can totally understand what that means. Your mean mother, Ivy, has made my life unbearable ever since my father died. Not only did she made my life miserable, but she made me her tool. A tool to extract money from the rich.""What are you talking about ?!!""Why?! Why are you so surprised? Didn't you see how she almost made me take everything from Aaron? I was about to reach my goal when I found out that Aaron had signed all of his properties in your name. And now you think... I will allow you and that miserable mother to ever be happy? It has to be ruined, just like she ruined mine."“You know, I still feel weird about the whole thing because I can't believe we had the same father. And my biological mother has always been good to you and Ivy couldn't do that to me. My mother took care of you and Ivy makes my life miserable every day. Well, it looks like someone is in danger." Her face suddenly smells of danger.“Cynthia, do

    Sophia CensatioWeek laterA week has passed since the incident. I heard from Aaron that Susan had left the country. She's in Greece now. But I wonder what she was doing there and how he knew where she was. She left without telling anyone... Kate, on the other hand, was very worried about her and her parents. But Aaron wanted nothing more than to catch her and make her pay for what she did to me.Even if she pays for what she did to me, it won't change anything for now. And Kate, she took such good care of her I think. I mean, I was told that. She sees her as the daughter she lost a year ago.Come back to me.Where do you think I live now? I am staying at one of the Aaron hotels. He wanted to take me home but I still can't. We had several conversations about staying in a hotel at the moment, which was very hard to convince. He told me he would only allow me to stay at his hotel.And I'm glad he understood that I want to be alone for now. I take the time to think clearly. And mom, I pi

    Sophia Censatio"Don't touch me! I deserve to know the whole truth...and now that I know it, the woman I loved so much, the woman I would give my life for, the woman I would sacrifice my happiness for, ain't nothing like a liar. She ain't nothing but a cheat! She's a kidnapper!" I got mad and spat on her. I don't know what's wrong with me or why I'm so mean to her all of a sudden, but I have to tell her everything I'm thinking right now. It's too much for me to bear. I may seem strong, but I'm in deep pain with myself right now. "Sophia!!! How dare you call me a kidnapper?!" She demanded angrily and she stopped midway to hit me. My eyes widened in horror, but she stopped as she slowly withdrew her hand."Come on, hit me! Do it! Come on, hit me! After all, I'm not your biological daughter. I'm not yours, so hit me! Come on, hit me. Hit me all you want!" I took her hand and kept hitting my face with it.She tried to pull her hand away from mine, but mine was gripped so tightly. I wasn'

    Sophia Censatio"Hello Alvira." I heard a voice, I mean, we all heard his voice behind us, me and my friends. Needless to say whose voice it was, of course it was Ivy.I wonder what this woman is doing here right now. She is the last person I want to see right now."Hi girls." She greets my friends. I can't take my eyes off her for a second. She was now a person who behaves like a good person. I can't believe she's the same Ivy I used to know. The ivy I knew was cruel, disrespectful, and ruthless, with no regard for the feelings of others. The ivy I see now is different from the ivy I knew before. The Ivy who doesn't care and act random but I know why the act all of a sudden. Well, nothing will change my mind just because of her sudden change in attitude."Hi, Ivy," Janet greeted her with a small smile on her face."Hello." Beth said."Hello Ivy. Good morning."

I asked Nathan."Okay, I haven't heard from her since the accident, she's been missing since yesterday.""So now, you're saying no one knows where she is?""I called David and I think his call will come in now." Nathan said. Time passed and my phone rang. I took it out of my pocket and kept it. "Yes David?""Boss, we found her whereabouts. She's in Greece."" Greece? ! What the hell is she doing there without paying for her sin?" I wasn't talking to anyone in particular, more likely to myself."Good. Please send me all information on her whereabouts immediately.""Okay boss, Roger that." he said. "Boss…" he reminded me before I hung up. "What is it, David?""I have something important to share with you."“Look David, whatever you want to tell me can wait…I'm sure it doesn't matter as much my wife's. if it's not about my wife, set everything aside for now.""Exactly, boss.
