Danna caressed his face and smiled “I love you son, but I am afraid that I haven’t been a very good example to you, it is time to choose the direction of your life. I want you to live a good life and be someone that I can be proud of. I have decide that I no longer wants people to see me as a useless mother, it is never too late to right my wrongs.”“For you, I will try my best. Please don’t be sad, don’t you know that I am capable of changing. Cheer up, you are going to look ugly with a frown on your face. Or why do you think that I have been following you around? Of course you are the most beautiful woman on this world “He said on a light note and it brought a smile on Danna’s face.“What would I do without you?” Oscar observed the people remaining in the room and then he muttered” I have nothing else to say to you. I should be taking my leave” just like he came abruptly, he left and the air around the office felt bearable . His dark aura was gone with him and the Walker’s managed
“Jared, we finally meet. Don’t worry my son, you will be fine. I will kill each one of them who laid their filthy hands on you starting with that useless Nolan. I warned him personally and he still looked me straight in the eyes when he knew very well that he was the master mind of everything.Even though he could hear his voice well, Jared looked lost” I am sorry but I don’t have a Dad, may be you are confusing things. I was lucky to have a mother who is crazy and I am certainly sure that she is happy now that I am no longer in her life to torture her.” He then chuckled with pain written on his battered face.” I never had the opportunity to speak the magic words “mother and father” when I was a toddler. They abandoned me like a used garbage. Honestly, I have suffered so much that I don’t even hurt anymore. So I am sorry, don’t play mind games with me.”Oscar felt a void deep inside his heart. But there was nothing he could do about it. He was powerless, this was his own flesh and bl
Really…why is this man talking about Walker Corporation with passion like that? Now that he was looking at him closely, Jared remembered that he had met the guy sometimes back. The memories were now coming back on his head but he wondered why he never told him that he was his father, why now?“You are the main shareholder at Walker Corporation? I am trying to figure out why you didn’t tell me your real identity” Jared asked coldly.“Would you have accepted me with open arms? I know you and I have always seen myself in you. The thing was that I was comfortable watching you from a distance than telling you and receiving your rejection. No father should experience that, it is the worst emotion that anyone could feel. So obviously I was afraid.” Oscar explained.Okay…things didn’t add up and he must tell him how he offended his mother.“What did you do to Danna? Why does she hate you that much? Do you know that I spent my whole life paying for your sins? Now tell me, are you worth forgivi
“Our guys were all killed. That man said that he had spared my life so that I can deliver a message to you” the driver of the van was still shivering since the incidence. She kept on reminiscing the way the men were tortured, that man was the devil. He was just lucky to be alive.“I didn’t hear you well, what was the man’s name?” “He said that he was Oscar Gavin and that he is coming after you .He said that you shouldn’t have messed with him. Who the hell is that man?”“Shut the hell up and get lost before I blow your head, you useless idiot. How dare you let Jared escape? That man is really getting under my nerves, every time that I think that I have found him, then things just go wrong.“ While he was still ranting and yelling, the man quickly sneaked out of the house and left.With a sweaty and shaking hands, Nolan began to think about what he was going to do. That man made sure to warn him over and over that if he ever get out, he is a dead man. Who was going to help him?
“And how should I treat someone who killed my first child and is planning on killing my second child” Celine asked and suddenly she was overwhelmed within nauseous. She didn’t mean it but it came abruptly. It was like her child could bear to hear Nolan’s voice. Unintentionally she vomited and it all went on his clothes. With a pungent smell and soiled clothes, Nolan became angry. He didn’t know what he had come to do in this house in the first place.Celine went to the sink and washed her mouth. A smiled couldn’t help curving on her lips on seeing how Nolan turned pale all over a sudden. She then shrugged her shoulders and muttered with a lazy attitude” sorry, my child doesn’t like you.”She wasn’t even remorseful. She was enjoying every bit of what Nolan was going through.If his day had been bad, then this was worst. “Céline, that wasn’t proper of you, you just soiled my clothes. What am I going to wear?”Celine covered her mouth as another bout of vomit started coming out. Nola
She heard them talking” don’t waste your time knocking, don’t you remember that Jared gave us a set of spare keys so that if anything happened to him, we would still take care of Celine” Dean said as he pulled the keys from his pocket.“Yeah…I know” Ivan replied. The door was unlocked to Celine’s surprise, this men were very cheeky. How can they get in to her house as if it belonged to them? Seeing her standing on the middle of the house with her hands akimbo, the two men got startled.“Cousin….”Dean called.“Sister in in law” Ivan whispered while looking at her with concern. Huh….the aloof man used to look at her darkly, she wondered what changed his heart. At that moment, she couldn’t help but remember how this man hurled insults at her and pushed Lina down the stairs at his office entrance .What a strange world? Did he ever sit down and start to rewind things?As for Dean, she can understand the sudden change because he was family and blood was thicker than water.Thinking too mu
Iris was worried too but honestly Celine hadn’t figured what she felt for her .She was still confused and so that was another matter to take care of another time. It might be she wasn’t willing to replace Alma, but how could that be? After talking on the phone for some time, one particular person had been getting her worried. She hasn’t heard from her for a long time. She should have been here with her during her darkest moment, that was what she used to do back then. When she saw her oncoming call, her heart danced with joy. Talk about the devil and she will appear. “Lina, my friend. Oh… Lina. Where did you run to?” She asked anxiously.“First of all, are you alright bestie? I am sorry but I left the country hurriedly. I got an offer to study and being that it was a good opportunity, I accepted. You had so much on your plate that I didn’t want to bother you.”“Why on earth did you leave me alone, Lina? We are supposed to be sisters and I have so much to tell you. Please come
The same effect that Celine had on him before was still there. Even in her absence, she could still manage to change his foul moods. Since the last time he talked to his supposed father, he has locked himself in his room. He didn’t want to be disturbed, all he wanted was to think about her beautiful smile and face.“Celine…..I will come back to you, sweetheart “she whispered before the door to his room was opened.“Mr. Gavin…” a guard called disruptive his thoughts. He got icy as he looked at the guard who was waiting at the door.” My name is Mr. Walker. Please consider yourself dead the next time you call me by that name. Make sure to convey this information to the others because I do not like to repeat myself.” His voice was husky but stern.The guard recoiled back in fright. If they thought that Oscar was deadly then his son was something else. But he didn’t know that it was wrong to call him by his family name. “I am sorry sir. I would never repeat it again. I would make sure to
“Watch your words, idiot. I love weddings and not all the marriages go wrong. I believe in Lina and me. Alright …. shut up already “Ivan scolded.Jared grinned at the two with a triumphant face.“I am just kidding. Anyway, I am happy for the both of you. Make this lovely woman happy. “Jared said and then left to say hello to Alexis and Jason. He hasn’t found time to visit them and so he was glad to catch up with them.Back at the other corner, the boys were chatting when they saw two beautiful women entering inside the hall. They knew that they were Lina’s recently found cousins. She introduced them when they went on one of their evenings out on which the boys and the girls were present.Nolan grabbed Rita’s hands and pulled her aside. He hasn’t stopped to fantasize about her. Ever since he saw her, she was all that he could think about day and night . He knew that if he didn’t do something ASAP, he was going to lose his second chance at finding love. He wanted to settle down and have
“Of course, this is a fucking yes. Let us make another baby. May be, she will be a girl so that your grandmother can tell me her name.” Celine said with affectionShe had grown to love Old Madam Walker so much and she wanted to please her. She was the only grandmother that she has.“Or maybe he will be another boy and my grandmother won’t hesitate to kick your ass” Jared joked as Celine wrapped her hands around his neck. ” Anyway, you could have simply asked me to tell you her name. You are just being silly, sweetie.” Jared whispered in her ears while nibbling on them. She so fucking liked the excitement that she was getting from the simple gesture.“Okay, wherever …a child is a child and as long as he/she will be yours, it doesn’t matter the gender. Anyway, I wanted grandma to tell me her name herself. Can we get to the business because I am ovulating and this is the best time to conceive?“Huh……” he hummed and then started kissing her furiously. Before they knew it, they were lyin
After the incidence, Celine didn’t go out much. She would spend her time at home taking care of Isaac. It was a good thing that Alma was still around and she was helping with the management of the N.C Corporation in Mombasa. Ever since Alma came to Mombasa, Celine’s uncle, Lucas Nelson found his way to manage the Nairobi branch. Finally, he got his hands on his late brother’s company the moment Alma left.Alma said that she was too old to fight with him so she gave up to raise her grandchildren. Nothing was more important than Isaac and Celine. She would give up just anything for their sake and she would sacrifice her career for them.In the evening, Jared came back from work. He was looking at her funnily and she didn’t know what he had in his crazy mind.“Sweetheart, spill it. I almost died the other day you know “up to now, she was still traumatized at the thought of April and her mother getting to them. She had thought that the two had learned their lesson but apparently, they de
But the police were on their trail shooting from all directions. They tried but they couldn’t match up to the number of the police that was sent to pursue them.Buy accident the tires busted after being hit by the bullet and before they knew it, they were thrown in to the man-made lake on the side of the tarmac road. The police surrounded the lake from all sides to prevent them from escaping and by the time that the car had been pulled out, the both of them were already dead.Joel was hit on the chest and was unconscious when he was found and taken to the hospital When he woke up, Patrick was by his side and he couldn’t believe the state that he was in. He was no longer the babbly and healthy Joel that he used to know. He was thin and pale. He looked like he had aged a bit and Patrick couldn’t bear to look at him.“Oh…. Joel. what have you done to yourself? I told you that it wouldn’t end up well for you. Those two were snakes. I lived with them and I knew them very well. why didn’t
“Daddy, life is too short to keep on having unnecessary beef. Look at what happened to Jared, he has forgiven Nolan and his mother. It was like they were never the people that he hated with his life. He is now at peace with himself. I wish you could see him today. He is not the Jared we used to know. Always angry and sad. Please just hear him out, he might be having something important to tell you.” Celine begged.She always had a way of reaching out to him. Patrick felt sad suddenly. Celine was right in a way. All this time, it has been eating him up like hell. He wouldn’t be at peace knowing that his only brother was suffering while he enjoyed life and had such a wonderful family.Perhaps it was time to hear him out once and for all.As if on a cue, Joel called again and this time, he picked it up.“Joel, what do you want?” he asked emotionlessly.“Listen, I don’t have much time to talk or explain things but your life and Celine’s s life is in danger. Your car is being followed an
After a few days, Celine went to visit her dad. It has been long since she saw him. Patrick Rowan was happy nowadays. Together with Iris, they were trying to build the pieces of their life back together and she couldn’t help but admire their spirit.It was admirable. Finally, life had granted the two of them another chance to experience good days. Gone are the days that her father would be insulted like a little kid. Gone are the days that she would look at his loneliness and wished that she could take his place.“Daddy…” She called as soon as she saw him.“Baby” Patrick hasn’t forgotten how he used to call her and he had maintained it to the end. Iris only smiled loving the way the two loved each other. She knew that she could never match up to them but as long as Celine was happy, then she had nothing to worry about.“Mum, how are you?” She asked as she kissed her cheeks.“I am great dear. I am happy to hear the good news that Jared reconciled with his family. Now you are going to
“Why not my sweet little daughter in law. I love you and remember that we are only focusing on the future. No more dramas or immature behavior from me, I want to be a good mother and a grandmother, okay. You made my son happy and that is why I will have you as my daughter in law. Thank you.”“No…. Thank you for giving me such a good man as my husband. “Celine smiled as she looked at Jared and his father.“Oscar, congratulations on your wedding. I never came to the ceremony.” Celine cracked a joke and the family laughed about it.“No, it was a quick one and I am glad that I made that decision. You should have seen how my wife was aggressive with me but who is smiling now? I want her to know that despite what has happened between us, I am glad that she gave me a beautiful family. I never even dreamt that I will one day become a grandfather. Thank you, darling, I love you from the bottom of my heart.“I love you right back “Danna smiled“No need to talk anymore. I want to celebrate with
Enzo gladly went and together they hugged their mother consuming her in to an embrace that stole her soul all over again.“Enzo, baby. I love you so much. You two are my life right now. ” Danna muttered as she kissed Enzo on the cheeks. The man chuckled as he replied “ I love you too Mommy and I love that we can now be a normal family with Jared . Oh…I waited for this day for so long, damn it . I wanted to tell my brother that I didn’t mean to cause him trouble in the past. All that I wanted was for him to notice me and consider me as his brother but he was so full of hate that I didn’t know how to reach out to him. ““I am so sorry for my behavior in the past. I am the one who should be asking for forgiveness. I was jealous for the love that our mother gave you. You have to understand that I watched you have everything that I didn’t. so, I found myself hating you even when I knew that you were innocent but it won’t happen again because I will never break up my family. I couldn’t
“Come here, sweetie.” Old Mr. Gavin called. Did she hear it right? was this arrogant man calling her sweetie? When did he start to grow fond of her? wonders shall never end. Danna was now being pampered by the very people who loathed her in the past.“Mmh….are you calling Oscar? “She asked dumbfound.“No….it is you, Danna. Why should I call that bastard that denied me a chance to be with my grandkids like an idiot? Does he even deserve for me to pamper him?” the man snarled. “Dad, you are being unfair and you know it. I also suffered, why must you complain and blame me for everything bad in our lives? “Oscar complained.“I love you son , but sometimes you let me down. I am just going to bear with you because Jared has finally come to me. I can feel it that he has decided to come home, something that should have happened earlier if not for your incompetence. Listen, I know that you haven’t been a good mother to him but the most important thing is that you are trying to make it up t
