“Mason take him to the usual place and lock him up until he learns to mind his own business.” Jared ordered with an emotionless face.The dungeon was the worst place that anybody would want to stay in. The place was so dark and lonely and if there was something the guy didn’t like was to be alone. Jared knew that whenever he locks him up in the place, he will take some time before snooping in his business again.However he knew that his mother will soon come looking for him and he will be there waiting for her.As Mason grabbed his shirt and started dragging him to the car he couldn’t stop shouting for help.“Big brother, please don’t take me there. I don’t want to be alone. I need my mommy” He screamed until the car left.In one of the most popular restaurant in Nairobi sat a woman sipping a glass of water. It has been a while since she saw her boyfriend and now she was eagerly waiting for him. Alex was honestly the man of her dreams and she loved him so much.The problem is that he
Suddenly her phone rang and when she saw who was calling, her sad eyes danced with joy. She thought her friend will never look for her after she found herself a wealthy Billionaire.Lina was really envious that her life turned out well but all the same she missed her so much and she was glad that she was the one calling.“Celine, you are such a bad friend?”“I am sorry bestie, it is just that I have been through a lot and I almost forgot about you.”“Likewise, there are so many things I need to let out and I don’t know how?Celine knew immediately that it got to do with that jerk Alex. She had warned Lina several times that the man wasn’t good for her and she should just let him go.Celine was never impressed by the numerous times that he had to let her down for the pretense of taking care of his step sister. She hated his guts and never wanted to see him.“Oh….Lina I bet it’s that bastard again. What did he do now?” Celine asked with a concerned voice.“Don’t call him like that, you
“I don’t know but it sounds like bad ideas for you to have left the opportunity pass for a person like Alex who doesn’t care about you. Until you are sure that you are completely over him then you can move over to Mombasa and I will always support you with everything that I have got.“Celine, I don’t think the employer can accept me back.”“You won’t know if you haven’t tried talking to them, may be the position is still vacant or they can simply refer you somewhere else. Don’t lose hope, do something good for yourself for once. You are always thinking about others and forgetting about yourself. It is high time you start to treat yourself better.”“Thank you bestie, I think that is what I will do.”Then her cell phone rang and when Celine saw that it was Jared, her heat almost skipped a beat. Her sad eyes now sparkled on the brightly lit room. From her facial expression Lina knew with certainty that it was Jared. Just by looking at her she automatically became thrilled and forgot abou
“What a boring man. You are so grumpy. Why don’t you pick a girl yourself and let all those hormones lose. You know you can have any one of them, you just have to say the words.” The man gave him a death stare and muttered.“Ivan, I think you are the one who needs a woman. Why don’t you go and pick one. In fact look over there the red haired woman has taken an interest in you. Can you just go and give her what she wants and leave me the hell alone.” Jared growled.“Okay, our mouths are shut. We won’t talk to you again. As it nears the big day you become even worse. That girl must have surely wrapped you in her finger.” Dean muttered.The quietness in the room became so much heavy that the temperature of the room started becoming warmer. It was so boring even the time seemed to be dragging behind.They wondered why the hell they came all the way here just to stare at each other without saying a single thing. It was supposed to be the time he tells them which woman and which family he h
“I would like to be right there too, but you know I can’t come back. I still have a lot of business to take care of over here. Today I just wanted to see your beautiful face so that I can sleep dreaming of you.”At the back of his mind he couldn’t dare mention the reason why he was still held back in Mombasa. He didn’t have the courage but what he knew is that when this is all over he will still go back to her and love her the way she deserved.“Alright sweetheart you can take all the time that you want as long as you don’t replace me .That will hurt me so much .It is a feeling I never want to go through again. I will die of depression.”At that instance he really felt so bad, he couldn’t help but remember the first day he met her in that club and how she was so daring. She was innocent but hurting inside and he couldn’t bear to see her go through that again.“Okay take care of yourself we will talk again tomorrow.”The following day was good and the work went smoothly at the company.
“You are going overboard here cousin. Why are you insulting my late father? He was always good to you and treated you well. What wrong did he ever do to both of you?” Celine couldn’t believe that the little adorable girl has turned in to a scheming and calculating person.“Oh please your father was very stupid for allowing something like this to happen”“Uncle Lucas, you just sit there and let her insult me like this? If you have anything against me just say it, but as long as I can remember I have never wronged any one of you. So I start to wonder if there is something more for this animosity.“Why should I not insult her? What I just said is the truth.” Ann refused to give up.“Ann what is all this? Can you two tell me what is going on?” Celine started suspecting that something was off but she couldn’t get her head on what it was .She was very sure that it had to do with the two people standing in front of her and what they knew about her.”“Ha….ha…ha…..Ann laughed” Dad do you think
Celine didn’t even realize that it was her birthday and no one has come forth to wish her birthday. She couldn’t blame Jared because she didn’t have enough time to tell him about it before he left for Mombasa. All the same she knew that he would have spoiled her a lot.“Yes my girl, let me continue and I have one favour to ask of you”“What is it?” Celine asked with interest.“Don’t interrupt me please, this story is one of the most difficult for me to narrate. You will soon understand why.” Alma seemed to be struggling to choose her words wisely. She didn’t want to say anything that will worsen the situation than it already was.“Alright”“The worst happened that day”“What happened?”“Honey, I said don’t interrupt me”“I am sorry mum, I will listen to you this time and my mouth is sealed” Celine finally promised but deep inside she wasn’t sure if she will be able to keep her word.Then Alma looked at her for a while with a very sad face and decided to continue with the story. It was
“Don’t talk like that, he claims he regrets what he did and wants to make things right by accepting you back as one of his own. However what I fear most is his wife. She is the worst kind of them all and destroys whatever crosses her path. I bet she won’t be happy to see you, after all she did everything in her power to break your parents apart.”“I don’t think I feel like meeting him at all.”“Do not pay them back at what they did. What happened belongs in the past. Just calm down and think very carefully what you want to do with your life from here onwards. I would advise that you go meet with him and figure out what he wants with you.”He caressed her pretty face as she said with thoughtful expression.“Whatever you decide honey, I will always support you. Right now you deserve to know where you came from and meet your father’s people.”The emotions were too much for her and she felt that the only family she knew was Alma and it will stay like that even if her so called father appe
“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
