Hi my dearest readers, happy reading. Blessings
Avery knocked at Aunt Bridgette’s room but there was no response. She opened the door and walked inside. She walked to the balcony to see if she wasn’t there. She wasn’t surprised to see her there.Avery tiptoed and stood beside her quietly. Aunt Bridgette was so focused she didn’t even see Avery standing beside her. Avery was so touched when she saw the painting.The painting had soft and delicate colours and it was amazing. She was standing beside Principal Glen receiving a trophy from Chairman Taylor.Aunt Bridgette managed to capture joyful moments. The smile on Avery’s face was eye-catching. It was a beautiful day. Bridgette felt like someone was watching her. She turned her head.When she saw Avery, she stopped painting and said, “Baby, when did you come in? Please show me your trophy.” Avery smiled sweetly at her and handed her trophy and the gold medal to Aunt Bridgette.Aunt Bridgette hugged her and said smiling, “Congratulations, you did well, my beautiful Avery. I have some
Avery opened her eyes smiling and said, “I hope my wish will come true, Daddy.” Her father ruffled her hair and replied, “It will come true, Sweetheart.”Avery didn’t ask to be reconciled with her brother, but she wished for her father to be blessed with good health and to see his grandchildren.Avery’s father smiled and said, “What a lovely gift, Sweetheart. Did you thank Bridgette?” Avery smiled back at her father and replied, “Yes, I did Daddy. I thank the Lord for bringing Aunt Bridge into my life.When I saw hatred in Aiden’s eyes, I decided to give up on him. He hurt me deeply, Daddy.”Her father felt sorry for his daughter and replied, “Don’t give up on your brother yet, he is not a bad person.” Avery nodded her head and didn’t say anything.Avery told her father that Aunt Bridge was taking her out shopping the following day. Her father gave her a black card and said, “Buy whatever you like, Sweetheart.”Avery thanked her father, took the card and gave it to Aunt Bridgette. Her
On Saturday morning, the sun was bright, and the sky was clear. It was a beautiful day to go to the beach. Bridgette was standing on the balcony thanking the Lord for blessing her and her loved ones with the gift of life.She was so grateful to the Lord for His mercies upon her life. The Lord had been faithful to her, and He had answered most of her prayers.At 8 am, Bridgette called her mother and said, "Good morning, Mommy, are you well?" Her mother was overjoyed to hear her voice and replied, "Good morning, Sweetheart, we are well. Thank you. How are you doing?Our granddaughter made us proud. Your father and I are really happy for her. What time are we meeting?"Bridgette smiled and replied, "We are well; thank you. Avery made us proud indeed. Mommy, we will meet you at His Own Image Boutique at 10 am. The weather is beautiful; I want to take her to the beach as well."Her mother became excited and replied, "It's been a while since I took a stroll on the beach. We will join you as
At that moment, Mr Martins walked to the living room and said, “Elizabeth, please show me the divorce papers you told your son that I gave them to you to sign.”Elizabeth looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, but she didn’t utter a word. Then he looked at Aiden with cold eyes and asked, “Why don’t you ask your beloved mother to show you the divorce papers?”It dawned on Aiden that his mother was lying to him and asked, “Mommy, were you lying to me?”His mother looked at him and replied, “Aiden, you misunderstood Mommy. I didn’t say that your father gave me the divorce papers, but I said he asked for a divorce.”Aiden looked at his mother in a new light and replied, “Mommy, are you using me to fight with my sister?”Mrs Martins looked at him with sorrow and replied, “I am sorry my dearest son, I didn’t know that after I told you about my divorce you would confront your father.You told me that you would go to your sister’s room to apologize. I was surprised when you told me tha
A few minutes later, Uncle Martins called Bridgette and said, "Hello Bridgette, I received a call from Aunt Rose. She told me that she missed her grandchild a lot. Why don't you spend time with your mother and Aunt Rose for a few days?"Bridgette was over the moon, she missed her mother so much and replied, "That will be great, Uncle Martins. I missed my mother's food so much." Then they hung up.Bridgette was beaming with joy and told her mother the good news. Her mother was overjoyed and said, "Let's buy sets of clothes for you and my grandchild."They bought a set of clothes for Bridgette, and then they went to Sugar Lump to buy clothes for Avery. Mrs Evans also bought toiletries for her daughter and her God-granddaughter.Mrs Evans called her husband, Paul, and said, "Hubby, please come back home early today. I have a surprise for you."Paul was grinning from ear to ear and said, "My beautiful wife, tell me quickly don't keep me in suspense."Suzie giggled and replied, "My love, I
On Sunday morning, the Evans family went to church to thank the Lord for His faithfulness in their lives. Pastor Basil was over the moon when he saw Avery and said, "Congratulations my beautiful granddaughter.My heart swelled with pride when I saw you taking the first spot in the Mathematics Olympiad Competition." Avery smiled brightly and replied, "Thank you, Grandpa, I think I took after my intelligent Grandpa."Grandpa Basil was grinning from ear to ear when he heard Avery's words and said, "You have a silver tongue, my dearest Avery.Someone whispered to my ear that you will come to church today and I have prepared a gift for you." He took a velvet box from his suit jacket and handed it to Avery.Avery smiled brightly at her grandfather and opened an exquisite velvet box. Sitting on the velvet box was a platinum wedding band. Avery looked at Grandpa Basil with a confused expression.Grandpa Basil replied smiling, "My dearest Avery, this is your future husband's wedding band. Pleas
A few days later, after the Collins family heard the news of Mia's pregnancy, they went to Australia. Mia's mother and her mother-in-law were fussing over her. They treated her as a treasure.Mr Shelton Senior had asked his wife several times to go back to their home to no avail. She stated that she didn't want to leave her precious daughter-in-law with the helpers.What if something happened to her grandchildren? She was taking care of her daughter-in-law herself.In the blink of an eye, the Parker family had been in Australia for almost a month and they were reluctant to go back, especially Edwin; he was scared of his sister, Elizabeth. His sister wanted to destroy his family.Brad had offered to open the company for him in Australia to manage but he turned him down. He loved his country and his sister. He was praying that his evil sister didn't harm anyone in his absence.The time had arrived for the Parker family and the Collins family to go back home to South Africa. Mia hugged h
August looked at his wife with a hint of mockery in his eyes and asked, "How does it feel to be ignored by your beloved brother?" Elizabeth looked at her husband with eyes full of hatred, but she didn't utter a word.Edwin walked to the living room with his wife and his daughter laughing. Elizabeth felt that they were mocking her, she couldn't breathe. She felt suffocated.At that moment, the helpers informed them that food was being served. They washed their hands, and then they walked to the dining room. Butler Bruce was standing beside Mr Martins.Edwin looked at him and asked, "Butler Bruce, where is Aunt Rose?" Butler Bruce looked at Mrs Martins with disdain in his eyes and replied, "Mr Parker, please ask your sister."Edwin raised his eyes slightly at his sister, but Elizabeth ignored him. She started putting food on her plate. Edwin's face darkened and asked, "What happened, Elizabeth?"The atmosphere in the dining room became awkward. August decided to intervene and said, "Bro
After work, Siyabonga went to Avery's apartment to see her. He was overwhelmed with anger and resentment towards Jordan. Why did he choose to dump Avery on her birthday? Jordan was inhuman.His boss opened the door for him. Siyabonga greeted Mr Martins with respect and asked, "How is she?" Mr Martins told him that she was shutting herself in her room.Siyabonga looked at his boss and said, "I will never forgive Jordan for the pain he put my sister through. Since he has been dating Tiffany for three months, why did he choose my sister's birthday to break up with her?"Mr Martins replied, "I think my family is involved in this matter. I find out that Tiffany is my niece, Lily's best friend. I think my wife and Lily used Tiffany to seduce Jordan. I wonder what they promised her because Bennet Group is bankrupt."Siyabonga was dumbfounded and said, "When Tiffany finds out that her beloved fiancé is poor, she will dump him. I don't see Tiffany marrying a pauper. I want Jordan to feel the p
A few minutes after Mrs Bennet left, Mr Martins heard someone knocking on the door. His face darkened. He thought it was Mrs Bennet again. He was going to give her the piece of his mind.When he opened the door, he smiled brightly when he saw the Evans couple. Paul looked at August and said, "How are you, my friend? My wife wanted to come last night, but I told her to give my God granddaughter a space."August smiled and replied, "My daughter is in her bedroom with her best friend, Gabriella. She didn't sleep a wink. She was crying the whole night."Paul looked at August and replied, "This is a blessing in disguise, my God granddaughter would have a miserable life if she married Jordan. He is arrogant, and he doesn't deserve my God-granddaughter."Suzie nodded her head and replied, "I am glad that Jordan is no longer in my God granddaughter's life. She deserves better."Mrs Evans woke up early in the morning and cooked a lot of comfort food for her God granddaughter. Mr Martins thanke
Jordan stayed in his car outside Avery's apartment for two hours. He wasn't brave enough to face Mr Martins again. His phone was ringing nonstop. He took his phone from his suit jacket and put the phone on vibration.He was surprised to see twenty missed calls. All the calls were from Tiffany. He didn't know what to say to her. He decided to ignore her calls. He had lost everything.He drove his car to his family mansion. His parents were in the living room watching the news. His mother was over the moon when he saw her son. She looked at him and said, "What is the matter, my dearest Son?"Tears streamed down Jordan's face. His mother was so shocked she hugged her son and asked, "Who made you angry? Tell Mom I will fight for you." Jordan wiped his tears and replied, "I lost everything, Mom."Mr Bennet looked at his son and said, "What are you talking about Jordan?" Jordan looked at his mother and said, "Mom, do you remember that girl who approached us at the Celebration Party?"Her mo
Jessica Wells asked the photography team to follow her to the Construction site. Fortunately, the Bennet Group construction workers were still there. They didn't leave when the Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs, asked them to go back home.When they saw the reporter, they were over the moon. Jessica approached them and said, "Good morning, I am Jessica Wells reporting live at the stadium construction site.The Construction site is deserted and there is no Construction Machinery. I see a handful of the Bennet Group employees waiting for the management to address them. Please tell us what happened?"One of the construction workers looked at her and replied, "We don't have any idea. When we arrived at 5 am, the construction site was like this.Our colleagues told us that they belonged to the Martins Group and their CEO wanted them back. They also indicated that the Construction Machinery belonged to the Martins Group."Jessica was shocked to hear that and asked, "Are you waiting for the Be
The following day, at 5 am, the construction workers started arriving at the construction site. When the Bennet Group employees saw the deserted construction site, they couldn't believe their eyes.The Construction Machinery was gone. They were so scared they thought they had been robbed.They quickly called their Team Leaders, but their calls didn't go through. Then they called their colleagues. They were shocked to hear that their colleagues were on a month's vacation leave.They were not aware that their colleagues didn't belong to the Bennet Group. They decided to call President Bennet's Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs, to ask him about their leave."Mr Gibbs, we want to complain. Why are some of our colleagues on a month's vacation leave, but we are not? Also, what happened to the Construction Machinery?"Henry was dumbfounded. According to his knowledge, every worker was supposed to be at work. President Bennet told them to finish the stadium before the deadline. Who permitted t
Mia had tears in her eyes; her husband hugged her and asked, "What happened, my love?" Mia wiped her tears and replied, "Our Goddaughter has been hurt by Jordan.He cheated on her and dumped her in front of his new girlfriend. Our Goddaughter needs us, my love."The Shelton couple told their sons that they were going to South Africa to spend time with their sister. They told him that their sister had been hurt by Jordan. Logan wanted to go with his parents, but his father didn't allow him.Ethan's heart was aching for his sister. He vowed that he would avenge his sister. He excused himself and went to his bedroom. He took his phone and dialed his sister's phone number.When it was connected, he said, "Big sis, I am sorry. Jordan will pay for hurting you." Avery smiled with tears in her eyes and replied, "Thank you, my handsome brother.I am asking the Lord to take the pain away. Jordan used me as his stepping stone. I appreciate you, my handsome brother." Then they hung up.Mr Martins
Jordan looked guilty but the lady beside him pinched him hard. He looked at Avery with cold eyes and said, "You are late, we have been waiting here for ten minutes. Time is money."Avery looked at the man in front of her. She froze, she couldn't breathe. She didn't know how she sat down. Her mind went blank.Jordan was holding a glass of wine in his hand and said, "Avery, I want to introduce someone important in my life, my fiancée, Tiffany Spencer. Let's break up. I have never loved you, but I pitied you because your mother didn't love you.I am tired of pretending. I have wasted so many years with you. I never knew what love was before I met the love of my life, Tiffany Spencer. Please move on with your life and forget about me."Then he kissed his fiancée on the lips in front of Avery. She was so shocked; she couldn't believe her ears. She felt like a knife was ruthlessly stabbing her fragile heart.She was dumped by her beloved boyfriend in front of his new girlfriend. He cheated o
It was the fifth anniversary of Avery and Jordan. Also, it was Avery's birthday. She was looking forward to spending quality time with her boyfriend.She even applied for special leave on that day. Jordan had never taken her out for dinner for the past five years.He had never introduced her to his friends or his family. She had never received any gift from him. Sometimes she felt that she was in a one-sided relationship.He always told her that he was busy with the company. She was hoping that today he would propose to her.Her father called her early in the morning and said, "Happy birthday my Sweetheart, Daddy loves you so much. May the Lord give you the desires of your heart.May He remove people who are not supposed to be in your life today on your birthday and bless you with wisdom."Avery giggled when she heard her father's words. She thanked her father, and then they hung up.Then her best friend, Gabriella Stone called her and said, "Happy birthday my dearest friend. May the L
At 4 am, Avery received a call from Dr Lambert. He indicated that one of the businessmen in the city was involved in a car accident. His car was found on the cliff. He asked her to come to the hospital urgently.Avery quickly took a shower and wore her blue jeans and white t-shirt and left. Outside her apartment, she found one of the doctors waiting for her. Even though it was a five-minute walk to the hospital, it wasn't safe for a girl to walk alone.Elsewhere, around 8 am, Siyabonga submitted the tender proposal, then he went to work. He was praying in his heart for the Martins Group to be awarded the Spaghetti Junction tender.At 10 am, Jordan dialed Avery's phone, but it went straight to voicemail. He was overwhelmed with anger. He asked his Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs, to look for Avery at the hospital.When Henry arrived at the hospital, he was told that Dr Martins had been in the theatre since 4 am. Jordan told him to wait in the hospital. Avery went out of the operating r
