Naya arrived at the Rose Garden, feeling desperate to see who this urgent client was. She's gotten her official outfit ready and ensured her make up was spotless just for this meetup. When she walked into the garden with a positive glamor, she ordered her guards to stand at the garden entrance and wait for her. This was unlike her since she was always cautious of people after her.

“Are you sure?” Her body guard asked.

“Have I never been sure of something?” She answered a question with a question. He let her be and ordered his other men to stay in position. “Good.” She smirked before walking further into the garden. There was a nice tent which had a nice dinner area. But she caught sight of no one. Who the hell was this guest who wanted to see Naya and why was she late? Naya bit her lips in anger since she hated her time being wasted.

“Naya,” Brett's voice said as he walked towards the tent to join her. Her eyes widened in shock. She stood up from where she sat immediately and tried

    “Exam is in an hour!” One of the teachers announced to the students as he entered Hailey’s class. “Make sure you revise what you have been taught and ace this.”Hailey gave him a cold stare as he began to narrate the rules guiding the students. “No examination malpractice. Any form of malpractice will lead to an expulsion!” The teacher warned. “When you are done blabbering, could you leave?” Hailey asked him rudely with confidence. The other student mumbled among themselves with surprise. The teacher frowned. He wanted to scold Hailey so bad, but he knew he had no permission to. The principal had specifically warned every teacher to let Hailey be. She is facing a crisis at home, he said. She needs time to adjust. Adjust his foot! Hailey was showing no freaking sign to change. “Take you time,” the teacher said eventually before walking out. Hailey rolled her eyes and called someone with her phone, as she walked out of the class. “Meet me at the back,” a deep voice said. She nodded

    The Fashion Show started later in the afternoon of that weekend. As usual, Lovelyn made a promise she wouldn’t keep. “I am going to be there for you dear,” Lovelyn promised with a friendly tone. Hailey took it as mere words. Lovelyn wasn’t going to be there. The lady was never there for her and might never be there for her. The person she instead saw was her father who waved at her from the seat she sat. It’s been a week since she saw him and his cute childish smile hadn’t left yet. Hailey felt excited by his sight even though she showed a serious face upfront. “Thank you for coming,” she said in her head before walking to the session for the students. “You look beautiful, my date,” Ryan complimented her long silver gown. She felt a bit disgusted and gazed around to be sure no one heard. “Don’t tell me that!” She snapped, as she gazed around in embarrassment. “You’re making me feel uncomfortable.” “I am sorry,” he apologized, turning away from her. “But you do look very lovely th

    “Keep it low, Naya,” he advised her. “Those times were different. You acted crazy and I thought you wanted to kidnap her from me!” Brett defended.“How could I have kidnapped her? She is my freaking daughter!” Naya defended. “She was my life and my mother had died that time.” “I am sorry about your mother,” he apologized. “I supported your aunt in burying her.” Naya felt her heart shatter. She turned back to her side of the seat trying to blink back her tears. “I couldn’t even bury my own mother,” she thought. “I don't think anyone will understand all I have been through all my life.” “I am really sorry about this, Naya,” he said with a soft tone and drew her for a hug. She unconsciously hugged him back, since she needed someone to confide in. Hailey caught sight of them and fumed more. She clenched her fist in anger.“Your father and Naya know each other?” Ryan was being nosy. “I do not want to talk about it,” she brushed off the topic.The time came for the fashion queen to be

    Naya gestured to Brett to be calm but he wasn’t. “Why would you talk to your mother that way?! She freaking shot someone just for you! Is this how you would repay her?!”Hailey was surprised. “She shot someone? What do you mean?” Hailey asked. “When you were three years old, some robbers came to our house and tried to kill you. Hailey risked her life to save yours. That’s one of the reasons she went to jail!” Brett informed her, causing Hailey confusion. “What?! She did that?” Hailey couldn’t hide her shock. “Did you really do that?” Naya nodded in reluctance. Hailey got deeply disappointed in Lovelyn. “All Lovelyn does is lie to you, Hailey,” Brett informed her. “She doesn’t love you. Do not believe any word she says. Believe us instead. Stay with us. We will make you happy. We care about you more than you can imagine.”Hailey gazed at them one last time before walking out on them. ***“Let me guess, you didn’t win the most fashionable for this session,” Lovelyn said to her as

    The next evening, she grabbed hold of her school bag and jogged down the stairs. Even though it was a Sunday evening, and everyone was at rest, she chose to formulate a lie about study lessons which she hoped her mum would believe. “Hey, mum! I am off to Priscilla’s place for some lessons. She has some old notes I will love to borrow from her,” Hailey lied. “Sure, of course. As long as it is Priscilla I do not mind. Come home before 8pm,” Lovelyn ordered. Hailey nodded and left the house. She got into the car and rolled up the car’s windows hoping not to see her mum’s face.When the car drove halfway into town, she tapped him on the shoulder with a smile. “Could you help me, Frank?” Hailey asked. “I am going to a friend’s place and I do not want my mother to know about it. Could you not tell my . mum about this?”Frank was a nice person so he didn’t mind complying at all.“Is it a guy?” He asked with a smile. “It is just a friend. But he is a fun one. I just hope to have a bit of

    The dinner was so fun that Hailey didn’t realize so much time had gone. She immediately hurried out to meet Frank who was waiting for her on the car. “Wait!” Ryan stopped her. She turned back to him as she was about to open his car door. “Thank you for coming today.” “Thank you too,” she smiled. “You showed what a healthy family looks like.” He smiled and nodded. “It’s fine. Your family can be healthy too. You’ve just got to recognize those who deeply love you,” he advised. “At this point, I am okay by myself. I do not think I can trust anyone at this point. Everyone in my life seems to be lying to me…except you,” Hailey informed him. “I know it can be tough,” he advised as he took her hands in his. “But you’ve got to recognize those to trust. Believe me, it’s not everyone who is lying to you. Some people really care about you. You’ve just got to recognize them.” She thanked him and gazed into his eyes for a while before leaning to peck him on the cheek. “Thank you for tonight

    “How does seeing your daughter hate you make you feel?” Naya’s therapist asked as she sat before her contemplating Hailey’s coldness towards her. “It reminds me of how much I hated my father,” Naya confessed. “I used to treat him the same way because of how much he abused my mother. I even did worse than Hailey is doing right now. I spat in his food, applied graffiti on his car on a Monday morning before he went to work, I spoke out loud during his business calls.” “Do you think this is karma teaching you a lesson?” The therapist asked. Naya laughed. “I do not regret any of those actions. Hailey’s situation is different. I didn’t do anything to harm her. I am the one who is wronged here, but she doesn’t understand. My father wronged me. He was abusive towards my mother and normalized toxicity. That was just too painful to watch. I had to do something about it. I didn’t know how else to react to such a cruel man.” Naya explained. The therapist nodded. “Alright, I understand,” she

    Hailey paced around her room wondering why it took so long for them to take her. She called her father hoping for an explanation but he wasn’t picking her call. “What happened? Why is no one answering me?” She thought. The door opened eventually and standing before her was Naya who looked emotional to see her. Hailey felt disgusted by herself and looked around for her father. Without any warning, Naya pulled her for a hug and Hailey rolled her eyes in frustration. “I really missed you,” Naya said, tightening the hug. Hailey said nothing. She waited for the hug to be broken before looking around for her father. “Where is my dad?” She asked. “He is coming up now to carry your bags,” Naya said, clearing the tears that flowed down her cheeks. “I am really so happy to see you.” “Whatever,” Hailey was an ingrate. She walked out of her and jogged down the stairs to see her father. On seeing her, she wrapped her arm around him for a hug. “You had to keep me there all morning,” Hailey n

    Brett sat in the sitting room feeling uncomfortable by the silence of the house. But his wife made her choice, he had to accept it. Hailey came by that morning, giving him a stone look. She silently helped her mum in carrying her things even though she knew in her mind that she had a lot to say. “Will you be able to care for the children by yourself?” Hailey asked her mum as she walked her to the car.“I will be fine, my love,” Naya laughed. I am more gallant than you think.” “I don’t think this is fair on dad’s part?” Hailey gazed back at Brett who watched from the door. “It was mutual agreement between me and your father. We agreed that I leave this nonsense…” “No! It was your choice,” Brett defended. “I don't know why you cannot trust me on this. I have tried so hard to comply with you. I have tried hard to explain all this to you…” “Enough daddy!” Hailey lashed, unable to control her temper anymore. “Just stop! You aren’t helping this matter.”“You ought to be supporting me h

    Herald made up his mind to lead Brett. He wasn’t sure what sort of fool Brett was, or why Brett would trust him. But it wasn’t his own business anymore. He would throw Brett off and he would do it in such a way that the guy would never notice. He accepts the gun from Brett's hands trying to maintain an innocent stare. “I will help you,” he said with a sincere gaze. “That’s very good,” Brett laughed. “I knew I could trust you. I had no clue who else I could call. You are the only one that came to my mind, unfortunately.”Herald let out a weak chuckle. Brett focused on one of his helpers and ordered her to get Herald some wine. “Would you like some wine?” Brett asked with a smirk. “Sure, why not,” Herald eyes brightened due to the thought of wine. “This is a moment to celebrate! We are gonna work together!” Brett smiled and got him the wine. Brett took the glass of wine from him and they both had a toast. As he gulped down his whole cup, Brett felt reluctant to drink his.“I can’t

    When Herald got the invite from Brett, he knew all wasn’t good. Unfortunately, Brett wasn’t dumb. Brett knew who he suspected, and was fond of getting into the matter of things. Herald couldn’t relax in his home. His eyes kept moving to his phone hoping for feedback concerning his flight. “Sorry, all flights have been closed due to the weather,” one of the agents informed him. Gerald frowned. “So you're telling me that I can’t get an emergency flight or what?!” He sounded harsh. His house girl gazed at him from the dining table she cleaned. She’s never seen him so angry before. In fact, his sudden outburst was rare. Herald was a cheerful dude. He was never angry… like ever. Herald’s phone rang again. It was Brett trying to remind him to visit. Gerald shivered. “It’s not my damn fault,” he quivered. “Do not blame me for this…please.” The house girl stared at him again. This time, he was mumbling words to himself and that was absurd. “Sir, are you fine?” She asked. “You are trembl

    Herald couldn’t hide his confusion due to what happened. He knew he did as his father ordered, but what he least expected was the explosion which shook the earth. He hurriedly got into his car to drive Brett’s home. He needed to check up on the family and confirm how they were doing. He needed to know what the police knew. As he drew closer to the location, his phone rang, throwing him slightly off guard. It was his father, feeling proud of what he had done. “Keep this up,” his father said to him. “You have done very well.”“Dad, what the hell are you talking about? The Hazards just faced a huge disaster and…”His father began to laugh heartily. This made him confused for a moment until he eventually realized what was going on. “Dad, did you do this?” He asked in confusion.“I told you that I will always repay evil for evil,” the man wasn’t remorseful at all. Herald couldn’t believe his father would do such a thing. I mean, he knew how cruel his father was, but that amount of wicked

    The Mafia Lord heard of the approaching wedding and frowned as he gazed at the E-invitation card with a frown. Of course he hadn’t been invited. But Brett was stupid enough to keep his enemies closer. Unfortunately, one of Brett’s office colleagues got invited. And that was his son, Herald. The Mafia Lord kept Herald away from the mafia business for a long time, seeing him as a golden child. There was no way he wanted his favorite to get into trouble. It seems that won’t last for long. As long as Brett worked with his son, and his son Herald was an easy way to get across to Brett, he had no issue with that. Things seem to fall in place…right? If only the Mafia Lord was in the same country with Brett to watch him and his family die slowly. The thought was really eating him slowly. Well, since his son was working with Brett, things should be easier. “I see you are friends with Mr Brett Hazard,” the Mafia Lord said to his son over a phone call. “You never told me you were close to th

    Brett stepped out of his car in his well ironed suit. The ceremony was about to start and everyone ran helter skelter to see what pending tasks were left. Brett wasn’t bothered. He seemed a bit at ease for a new groom, and kept his hands tucked in his pocket maintaining his composure.“The ceremony is about to start. Do you know where your wife is yet?” His mother asked as she cuddled Damian who was asleep on her shoulder. “She will be here soon,” Brett said with a smile. “Let her take her time.”“Are you serious?” His mother looked unimpressed. “We have a freaking time limit here! You can’t just tell us to be patient with the wedding. The priest is already here.”“Trust me. Hailey knows what she is doing,” Brett said to his mother. “You spoil that woman a lot,” his mother hissed before walking out. When she left, Brett shut his eyes and took a deep breath. It was still difficult to believe it was the damn D day. If someone told him, he would never believe it. “Congrats man!” A gro

    Hailey hurried up the stairs in her pajamas carrying a bouquet as the rest of the servants raced behind her.“Please tell me the band is here,” Hailey pleaded as she walked down the well lit hallway. The house was busy that weekend and everyone couldn’t hold back from the noise. There was a huge celebration happening at the Hazards apparently and everyone had their eyes on Hailey. “Why aren’t you ready yet?” Zara asked in shock as she walked out Hailey’s room with a jewelry box. “Do not be upset, I am just busy,” Hailey waved her off. “There is so much going on and we have to make this day a success.” “You need to calm down,” Zara calmed her down. “The marriage will happen anyway. Just calm down.”“No, I can't calm down. The band isn’t at the venue yet. The meals are still pending. What do you want me to do? Everything is a total mess,” Hailey nagged. “Hailey, you cannot get things done with a panicked mood,” Zara rolled her eyes. “You need to think clearly if you wish to plan som

    Few months later, as Naya got Damian ready for daycare, she heard a loud scream from the highway and hurried to look. It was poor Hailey, getting scared for no reason at all…or maybe there was a reason. “What’s wrong?” Naya asked. “Relax, dear.”“Someone has kidnapped Ryan!” Naya cried. “What?!” Naya was shocked. “Why?! How?!” “I don’t know. He asked me to come to this address, we need to go,” Hailey showed her an address on her phone. It was a remote location Naya didn’t have faith in. “Let us go with the police. I do not trust this place,” Naya informed her with a doubtful stare. “No, mum, you do not understand. They will hurt him,” Hailey cried. “We have no other choice,” Naya advised her. “We need to involve the police, if not, they will do something to us.” Hailey couldn’t argue with her mum. In a few minutes, they were on their way to the location with the police. It was an abandoned location with an odd looking warehouse which hadn't been used in years. “Won’t you guys

    Later that night, Naya had submerged her feet in the swimming pool watching the full moon. Brett joined her with two glasses of wine. They cheered and took sips. “Why does the air feel different?” He asked Naya who couldn’t agree more. “We are at a new era in our lives. A live where all our enemies have been put in their place,” Naya told him and took another sip of the drink. “Funny enough, we do not have to do anything. It just falls into place, you know,” Brett boasted. “I love when things fall on our laps. Damn! Let them all be coming, and let’s be showing them where they belong. It feels good to be evil,” Naya smirked. “Your soft heart is incapable of white, unfortunately,” Brett mocked and took the drink from her. He dropped it on the tiles beside the pool and jumped in. “Come on!” He called her out. “Let’s have fun in the pool.” Naya nodded and got in carefully. She swam towards him and poured a handful of water at him, which he retaliated. They swam around like childre
