Its okay mum. Remember big bro told you not to cry again because of him. Doris told her mum.
Yes l shouldn't cry because he had already moved on. Perhaps these are tears of joy. Mrs Maina responded.
Mr. Maina was interviewed by the reporters but l didnt hear most of it. May attention was now on sobbing mother in law.
Its all because of you Ashina. She added smiling at the same time clearing tears in her eyes.
I looked at her confused. Yes ever since you came into my son's life, everything is going on smoothly now. Thank you Ashina. For along time l saw my son smile again. She emotionally said.
I stood up and approached the sofa she sat in. Kneeling down, l hugged her. You dont need to thank me mum. I may not be his first love nor he my first one but am just sure of one thing. We were made for each other. I will love him unconditionally. I countered back still in her warm motherly embrace.
Oh Ashina how l wished he met you earlier
The door bell rang nosooner had we started to descend the stairs . I think everyone is here. Dorris stated. I think so too. I said in response Lets go mum is about to send a maid for us. She added. I smiled admiring how she understands her mum. And jealous at her at the moment because mine doesnt even answer my calls. I wonder when my parents' anger subsidies because l do miss them alot. I sighed heavily. It took a century for you girls to finish preparing. Come lets welcome the guests. Mrs. Maina said waving at us. We are ladies of course mum we need to take our time so as to look more beautiful. Dorris voiced. Okay madam l got it. Ashina put this on. Mrs Maina handed me a red small box rectangular in shape. This mum? I asked some how confused. Its a gift my dear check it out and l could prefer that you wear it today. She responded with a smile. I thanked her and took the box from her. I
But their efforts went to vail since there is nothing about him . The only photo of him on the net are the current ones the media houses posted when he was signing as the the ceo of the GM company.I lived a wonderful week at the mansion with my in laws. No one spoke bout mr. Gavin's wife nor the kids. It was like am the only treasure they know in this world.They treat me too good. Everyone try to please at their best.I should have been happy if am the only woman in his life. But am not. l think l shouldnt be as long as his first wife and him have not divorced. He is not going there at their home anymore. I only wonder why they havent divorced.Are you done Ash? Dorris's voice that came ourside the door of my and mr. Gavin's room snapped me from my thoughts.l finished wearing clothes along time ago and sat on bed where l started to play with my phone. We are going shopping today. I suggested it to mr. Gavin since tomorrow is
Thats me. Ashina Warren you bitch! Were in the world have you been. She screamed.Her voice was too loud that it attracted the attention of the people around.Hence they glanced at us. But the girl didnt even care about it.Well l have been hiding in the house . What about you? I answered forcing her to give me a silly look. I quickly pulled her into a hug. Oh girlfriend l missed you so much. Its good to see you again. I said excitedly.I missed you too babes. How have you been all of these years. She asked. I have been perfectly fine you know! I told her confidently.Good to hear that. I just have to say thst you are well taken care of. See how you are glowing. She voiced back. I have been doing great too.. Leyla added.Thats impressive love.. These are my two sisters in law. I sounded turning to look at both Daphine and Dorris. The two ladies gave us a smile.Don't tell me that you are already married girl frie
Look am not going into details. I only heard few of it recently. My dad and mr. Gavin are best friends. I hope he already told you what you need to know. She added and l nodded. Even though the answer is no, l couldnt bring myself to tell her. Her words confirmed every thing that has been going on in my head. Now l can love the poor guy with one heart without any worries. Leyla's phone rang. I must go now Ash. I left my cousin in the men's saloon. He must be done. Lets exchange contacts. She said. Oh sure. I took out my phpne and and we exchanged our numbers. Alright then girlfriend l gotta be somewhere else. See you tomorrow the soon mrs Maina. Leyla joked. Ok love l will be waiting for you we have alot to talk about. He returned. Yeah l know right. She replied standing up. I was left alone on the table. But it didnt talke long before Daphine and Dorris came up with bags of clothes. Leyla left already? Asked
I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. I took a bath and went out. Mr. Gavin wasnt in the room. I wondered where he gone. I sat on the dressing mirror table and begun to doll my face. I decided on a nude makeup. It didn't take me a century to finish. I was intending to pick up a dress from the closet when the bedroom door pushed open. Mr. Gavin came in holding two cloth bags in his hands. I hurried run to him to help but he just;no dear they are too heavy for you. He placed them on the bed. Good morning my dearest sugar baby. He greeted with a smile. Good morning my darling daddy. You must be tired from all the work last night. I replied sitting on his lap. No l wasnt tired. Not when you were sleeping near me. It was all worth it. Knowing that someone is there and willing to keep you company in every situation is the most beautiful thing in this world. Its even better than money. He responded. He was so emotional that l f
Mr. Gavin's povThese past months have been the best ever since l became a grown up man. To love and to be loved is something that can make a person live with out any worries. Even if you dont have anything to eat the following day, one can still live well because of that one person that makes living blissful.A beautiful, loving, a kind, a trustworthy and determined woman is every man's dream. And that is my sugar baby Ashina. The moon that shows me the way in the dark at night and the sun that brights my day.Ashina Warren! This girl came into my life at the right time. The more l tried to avoid what l feel for her the more l find my self drown into her sweet charms.No woman has ever did something like seducing me and l fall into the seduction. But she did. She first appeared when l needed help the most.She saved my life. The second time she also came to me when l was about to give up on life.Now here we are. A person like me is able to see throu
Ashina's povCouple of the year. I must say you two are stunning today. And Ash am jealous of those perfect curves. Dorris said.Well if l dont know you l would have thought that you are interested in my woman Dora. Mr. Gavin replied with a teasing smile.Big bro you! What are you saying? Am hundred percent sure that am straight in love. Dorris responded embrassed.Hmm its okay my dear Dorris and thanks for the compliments. I spoke easing the atmosphere.We greeted each other and and the two sisters led us in the garden. Many dinning tables and chairs were well placed and few of them are occupied by the people.Everyone seems to be in a good and party mood. My darling princess is finally here. Mrs. Maina said giving me a tight hug. You are so beautiful my child. She added.Thank you mum but why are you crying? I replied with concern.Its nothing my dear l just remembered something dont mind
My dear l dont interfere in how you should run your relationship or marriage with my son. I dont want to be the baddest mother in law out there. My mother in law never did the same so l wont do it either. I just wish you only the best. Thats all. Mrs. Maina commented back. I didnt say anything other than tightening a hug with her. We will definitely be happy mum you will see. I added. Yes you will with the Grace of the Lord. She whispered in my ear. I must say that l am loving this woman day by day. She is easy going and loving. And am happy that she has been there for me when l needed a motherly figure. Am really grateful. What are you two talking about? Mr. Gavin's voice settled the both of us.We split from the hug. Nothing much. Just mother to daughter conversation. My in laws please sit down for a cup of coffee. Mrs. Maina replied her son and then suggested coffee to my parents. Sure thanks mrs. Maina for the hospitality. My mu
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
