Hi my dearest readers, happy reading. Blessings
When Xavier arrived at the hospital, Dr Lambert was waiting for him in his office with the Oncologist, Dr Smith.He shook Xavier’s hand and said, “President Taylor, I decided to bring Dr Smith, the Oncologist, to answer your questions should you need some clarity.Your wife is in the final stage of stomach cancer. I would advise you to reconsider and terminate the pregnancy. Your wife won’t be able to live long. Also, when I told your wife that there was something wrong with her stomach, she was not shocked. She led me to believe that she had known for a long time that she was sick.”President Taylor looked at Dr Lambert puzzled and asked, “Didn’t you tell my wife that she was in the final stage of her stomach cancer?”Dr Lambert shook his head and replied, “President Taylor, I am not an Oncologist. I wouldn’t be able to diagnose your wife without conducting a thorough examination and also by testing her blood. Why are you asking?”President Taylor told him what his wife told him. Dr
Initially, Edwin and his wife, Cathy, wanted to go for their sixteenth anniversary holiday after Lily finished her June exams, but Lily had been giving them silent treatment since her birthday.Her mother didn't want to leave while her daughter wasn't on speaking terms with them. They tried to reason with her to no avail.Lily told her father that she wanted a private jet as well. Her father indicated to his daughter that they were not as rich as the Martins family, but he promised to buy her a luxury car.Lily was fuming and replied, "I don't want a useless father like you. I want to stay with Aunt Elizabeth. Why don't you ask her to buy me a private jet? Why is Avery so lucky to have everything while I have nothing?She stole my Godmother, and she was given lots of cars and houses, but I didn't get anything. I will never speak to you again until you buy me a private jet."Her father was livid; he went to his daughter's bedroom and started packing her clothes in the suitcases and bags
Someone knocked on her door before Avery responded. She smiled and stopped Aunt Bridgette from opening the door. She put on a gown on top of her pajamas, and then she walked to the door.She opened the door slightly and asked, “May I help you?” Her mother pushed her daughter hard. Avery staggered back for a few steps.Aunt Bridgette held her before she fell down. She looked at Elizabeth coldly as if she was giving her a warning.Mrs Martins was livid, “Didn’t I tell you to move your clothes to your nanny’s bedroom?”Avery smiled but it didn’t reach her eyes and asked, “In which capacity are you ordering me to leave my bedroom and move to my mother’s bedroom?”Her mother was taken aback when she heard Avery’s words. She glanced at Bridgette and said, “Is Lily not the daughter of your beloved uncle? How would he feel when he heard that you failed to treat her only daughter well?”Avery laughed out loud and said, “Mrs Martins, you have to practice what you preach. I have never seen you t
Lily was envious and jealous of Avery for having riches and being surrounded by people who loved her. She rolled her eyes and said mockingly, “You are so pathetic Avery.Are you trying to replace your mother with your nanny because your mother doesn’t love you? So, you are trying to buy your nanny’s love with food. I wonder who is the servant between the two of you.”Avery looked at Lily coldly and replied, “Miss Parker, you are nothing but a guest in my house. Whether your aunt loves me or not is none of your business. Is there a problem if I buy my Godmother's love with food?”Hope chuckled and said, “Don’t be mad, Miss Avery. She is jealous because the Martins family is richer than the Parker family.I heard that she ran away from home because her parents couldn’t afford to buy her a private jet. She has parents who love her the most, but she doesn’t appreciate them.”Lily looked at Hope, rolled her eyes, and replied, “I wasn’t speaking to the servant, who asked you to speak? Know y
At that moment, Butler Bruce walked to the kitchen. He looked at Lily and asked, “Miss Parker, where is everyone?” Lily indicated that they had gone back to their bedrooms.The aroma of smokiness and sweetness was still lingering in the air. He looked at the oven, but he couldn’t find the oven grill pan.Lily smiled faintly at him and said, “Do you mind preparing lunch for me? I didn’t eat breakfast.” Butler Bruce replied, “Who is to blame for that? Make it yourself.” Then he left the kitchen and went outside.Lily had never been in the kitchen before; she didn’t even know how to boil an egg. She was blaming her mother for failing to teach her how to cook. She felt inferior to Avery in every aspect.Mr Martins told Butler Bruce that he had ordered food from His Mercy restaurant to celebrate Youth Day. During dinner, everyone was wearing the school uniform except Mrs Martins and Lily. The atmosphere was more lively than usual.Mr Martins looked at Lily and asked, “Young lady, have you
Hope didn't sleep a wink, she was tossing and turning. Lily had opened the old wounds that were buried deep in her heart. Her pillows were wet with tears.She used to believe that time would heal a broken heart, but why was her heart still hurting?When she was young, she used to ask herself why her parents abandoned her. Hope was very pretty but no one adopted her until Mr Martins took her away from the orphanage when she was sixteen years old.The following day during breakfast, Mrs Martins looked at Lily and said, "Apologize." Lily looked at her aunt aggrieved and said, "I am sorry." Everyone looked at her, but they didn't utter a word.The atmosphere was tense. Mrs Martins looked at her husband and said, "August, I would like to apologize on behalf of my niece. She is still a child. Please forgive her."August sneered, "Elizabeth, I am sorry you are apologizing to the wrong person. She didn't hurt me."Elizabeth looked at her niece and said, "Sweetheart, you have to apologize to Ho
In the blink of an eye, it was time to go back home for Edwin and his wife. Paris was beautiful; they visited so many places and tasted different delicious food. However, there is no place like home.Edwin took his beautiful wife in his arms and said, "Sweetheart, I will treasure our beautiful memories deep in my heart. Thank you for being my wife and I love you so much. Thank you for not giving up on me when I wasn't a good husband to you."Cathy had tears in her eyes and replied, "I am so grateful to the Lord for allowing you to choose me to be your wife. You are such a beautiful soul, and I don't have a doubt in my mind that you are my destiny.I love you more, my handsome husband." She hugged her husband tightly.Her husband looked at her and asked, "What is the matter, my love?" Cathy smiled and replied, "I can't shake the feeling that something bad is going to happen. However, I will be happy to enter the pearly gates with you beside me."Her husband hugged her tightly and replie
At 16:55 pm, the flight attendant asked the passengers to put their phones in airplane mode.A few minutes later, their flight departed from the airport. When they were approaching Africa, the fog was so thick, the pilot couldn't see clearly. The visibility was poor.At that moment, the pilot saw another flight coming straight towards them. He tried to descend but it was too late. The two airplanes collided in the mid-air. Four hundred passengers and the crew lost their lives.At 3 am, Mr Martins was still working in his study room. He saw the news headlines indicating that Air SA from Paris to South Africa had collided with another flight in mid-air.He was so shocked, he tried to use the phone, but it slipped.

He woke up his wife and said, "Elizabeth, there was an accident." Elizabeth thought that her

Caia is my gift from the Lord."John ushered him to the living room and asked, "Have you eaten breakfast, August?" He indicated that he had breakfast with Pastor Basil.Caroline approached him, smiling and said, "Thank you for putting a smile on my parents' faces. They are over the moon." Then August kissed her sister-in-law on both cheeks.Xavier and Avery wanted to be there when their father fetched Aunt Caia. Unfortunately, Avery had surgery in the morning. She hugged Aunt Caia and wished her all the best.A few minutes later, Caia approached him in a stunning custom-made Haute Couture long white dress, showcasing her curvy body.

When it was connected, she said, "Hello Mom, how are you doing?" Her mother was beaming with joy when she heard her beloved daughter's voice. She told her that everything was well with them.Caia switched to video call and asked, "Mommy, where is Daddy? I have good news to tell you." Her mother was overjoyed and replied, "Your father is in the study room with Reece. Let me go to them."A few minutes later, her mother was in the study room with her husband and her son, Reece. Her husband smiled broadly at his wife and asked, "Are you looking for me, my dearest wife?"His wife smiled brightly and replied, "Caia wants to talk to us." Then she sat on the sofa.

On Sunday morning, Mr Martins took his daughter and son-in-law to church. Grandpa Basil was overjoyed to see them.After church, they approached him. Avery smiled brightly at him and said, "Grandpa, we will be having a housewarming party at Daddy's new mansion on Saturday. I would be happy if you could grace us with your presence."Grandpa Basil looked at his granddaughter, smiling and replied, "I will surely be there, my lovely granddaughter."Her father had invited Grandpa Basil to the mansion to perform a blessing. He said he would fetch him later because he had a special guest. Caia had agreed to have lunch at the Martins residence.Xavier and his wife didn't return to the Martins mansion because they didn't want to be a third wheel. Avery was craving a dessert. So, her husband took her to the mall to buy her favourite cake.At the Taylor mansion, Caia was nervous and excited at the same time. She nearly dropped her phone when she heard August's voice.

On Sunday evening, Lily was in her bedroom with a glass of red wine in her hand. She was looking at her group presentation with satisfaction.Since she didn't do well on her first semester test, she worked hard on their group presentation to improve her module marks. She contributed more information than the other group members.The group presentation counted 20% towards her DP. She was hopeful that she would be able to sit in the examination for that module. She couldn't afford to repeat a semester.At that moment, she received a text message from one of her group members, Edward Locke.When Edward was coming from the church with his family he saw the digital billboard jewelry advert. He decided to warn his fellow group members about the possibility of heavy traffic the following day.His parents parked their car beside the road and watched the advert.
