“Hey…….all you think about is dirty things .Can you at least think about something else?” Celine sneaked out of his strong hold.Jared smirked devilishly. Oh…. how he missed those old good days when they would tease each other like little teenagers and play at the same time. If that was what was on her mind then he got her covered.“You are playing hard to get, right? I have all the day, sweetie because I know that I will get my fat reward afterwards. So don’t you worry.”Celine felt that her mood has dropped. It was as if he chose not to listen to her and it was annoying.“What! Aren’t you understanding what I am telling you? Let us go out and do something fun. Let us go and eat something nice or may be go sightseeing for the remaining hours of the day. Jared, those are the little things that I wish to build my memories with. I want to experience good things that life can offer us for free because I don’t know when next you are going to disappear from me again” she said with tears s
The waiter took their orders and went out of their way. They were busy chatting when Lexi and Dean came by. She had been informed that the couple had stepped out for lunch so she in turn called Dean and requested him to take her out to the same restaurant.Lexi knew that Dean wouldn’t refuse. That man was still heels over heads with him and she could manipulate him the way that she desired.“Jared…..”Dean called in surprise .““Baby cousin, you are here too?” Dean joked with a smile as he went to kiss Celine on the cheeks. From the back of her eyes, Celine realized that this woman by Dean’s side didn’t like her very much. The way that she looked at her brought shivers on her body. She couldn’t help but feel that she was up to no good.Celine smiled and then accepted his kiss. “Dean, do you now have a girlfriend? I thought you swore that you would never settle down? What the hell did she do to you?” Celine inquired.Dean blushed and then pinched Celine’s cheeks” Celine, her name is L
“Don’t worry, Lexi. From today onwards, I will not be Jared’s friend” He said but deep inside, he knew that he couldn’t afford to let him go. Together the three of them, they have been through a great deal and it will be such a shame to spoil it. Well….. they might fight from time to time, but they knew how to cover each other’s backs. Perhaps, if Jared hated Lexi, there was a message he was trying to send to him. Why the hell would he just come clean with him? Lexi was an innocent and pure woman, he couldn’t think of any other reason why someone might want to dislike her.“Thank you, darling. Can we order something? I am really starving and I like the thought of eating out with you. You don’t know how much I have missed you. “ she said feigning a smile. By the time that she had finished distracting the fools, the mission would have been accomplished. She could then go and collect her millions waiting for her overseas. She never really cared about the loser Dean. He was never her
“I am sorry, Jared. You know I wouldn’t have lost him intentionally. Please help me find him. I don’t like all this. I don’t want to disappoint my sister-in-law. She will hate me.”“What it is sweetie? What has happened?” Celine asked when she saw the panic in his face.“Isaac is nowhere to be found. But why did I even trust that good for nothing with my son. Enzo, you have killed me. Just for this once, why couldn’t you do things right?” “Then we will have to hurry up and look for him” Celine had no time to think. She just knew that she has got to do something as fast as possible.When Dean saw them leaving, he immediately knew that something was wrong. However, how much he said to himself that he didn’t care but he did. He will always worry about that grumpy man that calls himself Jared Walker.” Hey………..Jared where are you going in a rush?” Dean asked “Tell Ivan to meet me at the park. I have a big problem and I need you guys. Please don’t bring your girlfriend along. If I see
“Grand pa, don’t be like this. Enzo is also family and I had the best intensions when I gave him my son. Please when would you stop smoking that rubbish. It will kill you for me. would you stop?” he meant to grab it from his hands but the man burned his fingers intentionally and Jared moved back”“Yeah………I will smoke until I die . isn’t that what you guys wish for me. You want to kill my first grandchild, I will not allow it. Jared, if you want to disappear, just go and leave. Please don’t infect my Isaac with your nonsense.Why did he have two crazy grandparents and what in the name of God bewitched them with smoking? “Don’t you dare disrespect my grandson like that, you crazy old man. I am going to break your face” old Mr. Gavin shouted. Old Mr. Walker took his cigarettes and stepped on it before looking at the man with disgust. Just the person that he needed. “Who the hell do you think that you are to raise your voice at me, useless idiot. Do you even know the color of my grands
“Okay, the three of you should consider Isaac before trying to rip each other’s throat because Jared will not be lenient with you. But if you feel that you don’t have anything better to do, then just fuck off” Patrick said and then headed straight to where Celine was seated. She had cried her eyes out. unlike last time Nolan took the baby, she wasn’t worried because she knew that Nolan would never hurt the kid and the best thing was that she had leverage against him. But now things were different. she didn’t even know where to start from. She was lost.She had no clue who the hell might have taken her son. She completely lost control of everything. she wouldn’t even imagine who she had offended.“Baby…..”Patrick called and the moment she heard his voice, she ran in to his arms and cried even more” I am so sorry , I didn’t come earlier . Don’t worry, I have talked to Jared and we have put in place the best men that we have and very soon my grandson will be back home” he comforted her
With hate in his blue eyes, he nodded his head.“Yeah …I agree. Just continue searching. Right now, I can’t even face Celine. I can’t face her with empty hands. I am just going to take a short walk and when I come back, I would have found a solution for this little problem. Where is my brother?” he asked all of a sudden. “He has been sitting on the same spot ever since we found him. He doesn’t want to talk to anyone and he keeps on blaming himself on what happened. Boss, I don’t even know how to talk to him” Mason said.“Don’t worry, I will take care of him.”When Jared stood in front of Enzo, he just couldn’t get angry at him. Deep inside, he knew that it wasn’t his fault. Enzo didn’t have enemies, he was too much of a coward to even offend anyone.“Little brother, please don’t blame yourself. Isaac will be found. I am sure that whoever has taken him will not harm him because I know that they need something from me. Something that they think is more precious than him.”Enzo was dum
They soon arrived at his grave and sat down on the cold cement.“I don’t understand you, Jared. Instead of looking for Isaac, you are here speaking to this dead evil man. what is going on here?”“I can’t help it, little bro. I just have a feeling that our cousin isn’t exactly dead. I know he is somewhere watching us with his cunning head. I don’t know why he hasn’t shown up. Can you believe that I have sent my agents to go and look for him and they haven’t found anything yet. Where the hell could that asshole be?”“Stop being a comedian. You are not being funny .So, what does that have to do with us being here?” Enzo asked impatiently.“I don’t know either. I just want to relax a bit and think” he said and shrugged his shoulder.“Thinking amongst the dead? I didn’t know that you have this kind of hobby “Enzo asked but Jared ignored him.“Nolan, please help me find Isaac. I know you promised to take care of him. He was important to you the same way that he is to me. He makes me try 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
