Doe Benz! Deo Benz! I repeated the name and if you a good listener and observer you can quickly detect the mockingly in my voice.He looked at me as if expecting me to do something. I fixed my stare at him. Well Mr. Benz you seem to know me much than l expected. You even know where l sleep. Am wondering what you want from me. I responded as my eyes looked straight into his eyes still. Dammit your eyes. He blurted forcing a deep voice but l wasn't the slightest moved. Seeing no reaction from, Benz put on his best smile l guess. Look l don't mean any harm my dear l just want to know you better. To became friends with you who knows we might even date. He commented back.Am sorry we can't be any of that.Not with someone who got my number in a scum way. I can't even date because am...... I showed him my big diamond ring on the finger without telling him that am married already. I wondered whether he didn't see the ring before or he just choose to ignore it.But what he spoke next implied t
The next few days were spent them traveling to nearby areas that we didn't visit before. And the last four days of our vacation we spent them in the resort without going anywhere. We made love mostly.And then it was time to go back home. Our flight didn't delay because we used a private jet. There were few important issues to deal with in the company. So Mr. Gavin wanted easy means.This the moment we landed he went straight to the company. I went to my parents place. I missed my lsla and parents. Even though we used to talk on video calls.Mommy!!!! Isla jumped on me happily before l could sit down. Oh my baby how are you. I asked. I missed you and dad. I cried. Isla spoke in her childish voice and felt guilty.I missed you too darling but mommy is here now. I hugged her tightly on my chest. Mommy where is dad. He doesn't want lsla anymore? She asked almost crying.Noo no my love. Dad has something really urgent to deal with at the company and as soon as he is done with it he will c
The two months were so hard for me. Apart from the known morning and evening pregnant sicknesses women suffer from, I got constant pain in belly every time. Mr. Gavin reached the extent of telling me to abort the pregnancy but l wasn't buying the idea.l knew that suffering will soon be gone and come back to normal. And l know that he needed children. One wasn't enough. We went to the hospital for the check up. Many people were lined up too so we had to wait even though we made an appointment early. Still there people who made before us. Our time soon came. Mr. Gavin helped me to lie on the bed himself because he didn't want the male gynecologist to attend to me. And the female couldn't do it alone. But this hospital doctors are very calm and did their work without complains. May be they have seen enough and alot. The female doctor whose name is Sophia calmly scanned my belly. Wow... Congs you have twins inside. She announced with a smile. Huh! Mr. Gavin jumped to have a look and
What! Who sent him? Where you guys able to get to know more information from him? I asked nervously. So this is happening again.No he committed suicide before telling us. He replied. But l know that person is in the company. Because we had sighed out a week ago the soldiers that Daphine's husband sent us. We didn't make the matter public. Now something like this happened. And the killer didn't know that l was with George in the office. Probably he had received the wrong information.George does not announce his arrival in the company. He hates public appearances. Ashina am scared this time. I feel like many people are aiming to take away my life. The competition with in the board of members is too strong. I suspect that the one who want to kill is a mong them or the ones that l forced to live the company.I even had few of them investigated last month but l didn't get the desired results. I spoke sadly.I hold his hands. Don't worry my love. We reach to the bottom of this. Don't be s
The best thing is to ensure the mother and the twins situation now. My dear parents. I had to remind them. We can even come up with the names for the little humans now. Ashina and l decided to surprise you with the news of having twins but we also discussed that it's you guys to came up with the names of the babies as a compensation. I didn't have much words to say. Ashina will soon woke up and l know she will inquire about it.l commented. We will go somewhere sit down and then come up with better names for our little angels. Mr. Warren responded as he glanced lovingly at the two little humans in the nursery. My mum agreed to his words and the three elders made the a way to the next room that is empty. It's more liking a resting room. Who would have thought that moments later when the elders came out of the room they failed to pick good names for the twins. They were arguing over the names each one picked. Looking at them l couldn't restrain my laughter. It's Okay we let the mothe
Giving birth is really tough.And it's worse when your entire mind is engraved with nervousness. There was a moment l felt that l couldn't do it.For the first months of my pregnancy except the morning sickness and may be some few emotional changes l was fine and have nothing to be scared of. Six months into it l started feeling fatigue that l spent most of my time sleeping if mr. Gavin isn't home to enlighten me with the company issues.Even when the doctor and my parents told me it isnt a good thing to sleep much, l couldn't bring myself not to give in. At eight months my belly was too big that at one point l doubted the scan's results. It was like l had more than two babies inside me. Well that what came into me. And the fear grew inside me slowly to the time of labor. Mr Gavin kept dr. Sofia at home most of the times and l was greatful for her help. Then it was time for my babies to see the world. It came a week earlier than the expected time. I was home with lsla helping her sort o
No matter what l tried l couldn't get off the feeling that something isn't right with mr. Gavin. So when he went to work this early morning l went to have a look in his study. There was nothing in particular is suspicious of. I wondered what was the cause of his abnormalities for this while. Just as l existed the study, George cropped up in the living room. He was dressed in a black business suit and seemed to be going somewhere for business related matters. Hi Ashina is everything okay l want to talk to mum before going. He greeted and stated his reasons for coming. Am good George. Business trip? I responded. Yeah. Something transpired in GM branch in Europe and am going to find out. He says. Oh l see.l said softly. Something transpired? Does it have anything to do with my husband's behavior?, Are there going to be other serious losses? . Oh dear God don't allow it my man will break down for sure.l prayed. Do you have few minutes to spare me. I have some thing to ask of you and
Ashina what's wrong with you why there is blood in your hands? My mum's voice snapped me out of the daze that l was in for the moment. I looked at the left pieces of glass in my hands and l got confused. I don't remember how the glass broke.I then rushed to my babies that were struggling in Edina and Eric's arms. The babies cries were too loud to be ignored. Isla wasn't any better since she awas the first that started crying.She broke free from Mrs. Maina' s lap and dashed towards my direction. What was going on? I summoned Jane over to check the twins diapers first. They sometimes burst into tears when they pee or wee into them. I attended to lsla. Baby why are you crying? I asked her. I want dad mummy l want dad. She muttered looking at me pitifully. Dad is on his way back home dear. He will be here soon. I coarsed her but she seemed not to be believe me. Isla run away all of the suddenly from the gardens where the party was to the house calling dad,dad....l immediately run after h
Alec recorded a video himself where he saidGoodmorning every one. My name is Alec Thomas. Some of you may know me and others don't. Am the current ceo of Thomas group. And am here to clarify the rumors spread about my wife.My wife and l met two years ago and fellow in love with each other. At that time neither of the two of us where married or had any partner.So it's ridiculous for miss Linda to call my wife a mistress when she clearly knows every thing. Miss Linda and l were married for two years but divorced due to her betrayal as you can see in the video below this one. Please don't abuse my wife and family more because of this matter otherwise l will be forced to give a lawyers letter. Thank you for your time. Alec's clarification was belief. After his video another played. In the video two people appeared. One man and the other woman. They were in a hotel room. Have you got the document l told you from Alec, the man asked. I got everything in my bag. I even found something
You being a rich sometimes feels you are guilty of many things. And people treat you are you no human. That you have to give in to all their demands. Take Linda for example. She is a greed person and always want more even though she knows it's out of her reach. Mrs. Thomas said.Back then her father was a royal servant of my husband. He was a good mannered man and also keep others safe. As a reward for his hardworker, my husband arranged a marriage between the two families and also sent Linda abroad to study further. My husband died and in that very year my oldest son disappeared. So Alec had to marry Linda. Anyway there wasn't any choice made who should marry her when the arrangements were made. And that time Alec needed a wife for business.He treated her well and she never lacked anything. But she was deceived by others to betray her husband and the family. Now she keeps on pestering us as we owe her. She is just shameless. She added.So that what happened. I thought inwardly. I di
The kids were still asleep but with the help of their nannies, every thing became easy. Few minutes later we stood at the entrance of a gigantic door. It was not inside the mansion but attached to it in the sides. The door slowly opened on its own. A sharp lingering sweetness of incense filled my nostrils. Am not a fun of incense but this was too mouth watering. I inhaled it from time to time as we entered the hall. Like the dinning hall and other important halls in the mansion, the ancestral hall was also cathedral ceiled. It's just a free space with only a red carpet. No chairs. When you just enter you are faced with the alter on which many pictures of old people are displayed.Most of the elders and other youths were present. Old man also the family's only grandpa left on earth took lris from me. He also called the other three kids to go to the alter. He then knelt down and said in a loud voice: "Our dear great ancestors both paternatal and maternal ones l greet you all l present
Six months later we traveled to edini city. Mrs Thomas suggested that since we had named the baby with Thomas family name, she had to be presented to the ancestral hall in the mansion. She claimed that the baby will be blessed and protected. Neither l nor Alec argued about it. In addition to that, Tonny Alec's personal assistant'wedding was around the corner. It was planned to take place in Edini city. Thus this journey was inevitable. It was Saturday night when we landed. Unlike the past visits to Thomas mansion, this time it was filled with people of different ages every where. Is the Thomas family very big? I couldn't help but ask Alec. Yes there are so many people who live in different cities. They normally gather here when some thing important came up. He explained. I nodded. Most of these people ain't easy to deal with and they are greed for healthy in this main branch. We have to be cautious of every one here. Although l dealt with the person who staged the original Alec's p
Ashina's point of viewThe situation was already stagnant but Leyla was still stubborn. She dared to plot something like that to my daughter and thought that she will go scot free. What mind does she have?Ain't you going to apologize Leyla Anthony? I asked but Leyla only scoffed. In you dreams. She uttered without any fear. Very well then. I replied with a smile. At that time Leyla was being held by two body guards. I signaled to them and they got a hint. In the next seconds Leyla was forced to drop on the floor kneeling infront of me. She gasped in pain. I kept my smile as l saw her angry face.You bitch how dare you... Paa.... I slapped her so hard that my palm hurt. Whom did she call a bitch? I hate people to look down on me the most.You think you got it all that you are stepping on me. Bitch am telling that if you are to do something on me just do it otherwise you will... PAA...... Another slap..... Apparently she doesn't know that the word bitch is the reason why she is having
Leyla's point of view Ashina Warren thought that l was her friend few years back. Little did she know that she was the person l hated most in this world. At school she always took my spotlight. Even after school she shone brighter than any of the other girls in school with her wealthy family. And later she married Gavin Maina the guy l had eyes for and my father was in support of me. If l had married Gavin, our family would have been in top five in the country. The Maina family has alot of influence in Rabadan and country Z at large. I didn't expect that she will be a stabbing block in my way. I approached George who thought that l was madly in love with him. But all l wanted was his elder brother. Gavin was smart, outstanding and handsome despite the fact that he had aged. That bitch Ashina ruined our plans by marrying him. How could we just sit and let something that we planned for a long time just go to waste like that. We did everything but never succeeded. Her dad despite the
Ashina's point of viewI had stopped going to work. Every thing that needed my signature had to be done online. However after my pregnancy was in the second trimester, l couldn't even sit on the chair to do work for more than two hours. My head was ever buzzing and am dizzy for minutes. Alec had to take over my roles even though he did not want to get involved in the company anymore. I was sick every day. No every second that at the beginning of the third trimester l thought that l was going to die. My family couldn't do anything but just sit in the living room waiting for what is next.And the kids would just ask me when am going to play with them again. And that would make me sad. However thinking about the other baby in my womb, l had to fight hard to keep my emotions at bay. Surprising the last month l didnt get any sickness and was relieved that am going to give birth happily.l would even walk around in the garden and play with my kids. Who would have imagined that Leyla Anthony
Alec's point of view. It was there, l mean that sense of contentment when l entered the white villa after a long period of time. That is the thing l dont feel when am at the Thomas mansion in Edini city. Here it feels home. It's where l do belong but at the moment l wasnt enjoying it when my Ashina was suffering for our baby. I just finished the last meeting and decided to let her know that l was coming back. But Jane her secretary was the one who answered and informed me that she was in the hospital. Don't get confused. Ashina has two Janes . The one who is the kids' nanny and the other is the secretary at work. While rushing to the car to go to the airport, l asked her what happened. Ashina had informed me yesterday about her stomach discomforts and insisted that she was better. I stupidly believed her but apparently l made a grave mistake. I shouldn't have listened to her and call the doctor right away. Am not sure sir what. really happened to her. I called her several times a
Moments later the dizziness was gone. I helped myself on the railing and l went to my room. Climbing all the stairs almost took my life. I was breathing heavily when l made it to the room. My lips were dry to the extent that there was blood in the middle of my lower lip. I drank a bottle of water that was on table besides my bed.I lay on bed flat.My tummy's discomforts were back again and this it was serious. I tossed on the bed. Curved into a ball few times but nothing was helping. The discomforts turned into unbearable pain.At this time l regretted not allowing Alec to call a doctor.l tried to get my phone to ring the doctor myself and only to remember that l have left the phone down stairs. Luckily someone opened the door. I heard tinny footsteps. I could only imagine that lsla was the one that came in before l blanked out.When l came back to my sense, l was welcomed by a white ceiling and the smell of disinfectants. I knew that l was in the hospital right away.But still l fel
