“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
Jared stopped on his tracks as the words repeated themselves in his head. Did that woman know that she was a dead meat? How dare she call him? “Who are you? I hope that you know that I will hunt you down and kill you. Just try to touch even a single hair on my son’s head.” Jared threatened without hesitation.“Jared, why are you being like that? Do you want them to kill Isaac? Come on, try to be nice, that is the least that you can do.” Enzo whispered to try and reason out with him. He couldn’t believe that he was being a jerk to the extent of placing Isaac’s life in danger.He never cared about so many things but not Isaac. He must not let anger get better of Jared.“Hey… you got to talk to her nicely” Enzo pleaded with the ice-cold man.“Well….it doesn’t matter. I have only one condition. I want you to divorce that bitch you call your wife and marry me instead. She is a slut and does not deserve to have your kid. Only then can I return your child” she ordered.“What! “Jared shout
“There is really no need to bother. I promise you that she won’t touch my kid. As for the matter of divorce, I get to decide and one thing for sure is that we are not divorcing. Did you get me well?” he asked while caressing her cheeks. His cold hands making her shiver at the sound of his voice.“Don’t do this to me. it is not easy for me either but we have to do it. You have to divorce me and I am ready. Can you reason out with me for once in your life. Sometimes, it is best to give in like a coward in order to save a life” Celine begged but the man was not going to succumb to her useless words.“Jared, what other ideas do you have? Do you want to endanger Isaac’s life?” Ivan asked “Yeah …tell us and we will give you a hand” Dean added” If you ask me, let us do a fake divorce and convince the bitch. Afterwards, we can figure out what to do with her. You know together, the three of us we make a pretty dangerous team.”Jared curved his mouth in to a smile. It was good to have his fri
“Shut the hell up, idiot. This is not the time for this. Celine, don’t listen to him. He is just talking nonsense because he is idle” Jared was desperately trying to push this matter aside but deep inside, he knew that Selena was also another crazy woman who was capable just of anything. He couldn’t stop to imagine how she pulled a prank on him the last time that she tried to get back with him. How would Celine react when she found out that he actually slept with her and kept it a secret? Would she be angry with him?But to his dismay, Celine just stayed calm. She wasn’t in a hurry to make any judgement. However, deep inside, she was hurt.“Sweetie, right now. I am not interested in reprimanding you for anything in the past. If you never told me about Selena, then it must be for a reason. As much as you won’t believe me, I am capable of waiting until all this mess is over. The most important thing now is to pursue all possibilities in finding Isaac” Celine said and Jared got even mo
“Jared, there must be something that you are not telling me. I know that you haven’t cheated on me ever since we met in Mombasa. Talk to me” she said as always with understanding. It left Jared feeling guilty for what he was about to say.“I am so sorry Celine, but I have been a coward and I didn’t want you to know for the fear of losing you. Those stupid friends of mine set me up with Selena when I was drunk and I ended up sleeping with her. I know this is not an excuse for cheating but I had warned her to leave me alone but she wouldn’t listen.”“She took a photo of us naked in bed and then threatened that if I did anything stupid, she would expose them. So, I thought that as long as I kept my mouth shut, those crazy photos won’t come out and it has been working well for all this time. I couldn’t just tell you when we were dealing with the issue of April. It was just too much for you. Celine, please find it in your heart to forgive me.” Celine felt a painful tug on her heart. Not
“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
