When Nina closed from work she didn’t go home, she drove straight to Cody’s office. She walked haggardly to the elevator and punched in his floor number. Nobody bothered to question her as they knew who she was, though she barely ever showed up at the office. When she got to Cody’s office his secretary got up to stop her from budging into the office. “Ma’am I have to inform mr. Whyte before you go in” She stared at her from head to toe, she was a fairly young woman maybe younger than Cody. Her insecurities got the better of her right at that moment.“Since when did you start working here?” She asked.“About three months ago” the lady replied.“Good let me tell you something, you either transfer to another department or I get you fired, understood?” Nina yelled and burst into Cody’s office before the lady could stop her. The door banged shut behind her startling the secretary.Cody was on the phone when Nina burst in. He was surprised to see her.“Let me call you back” he said and h
Eileen sat calmly at the studio trying to compose her thoughts and sing. Louie stared at her angrily as he watched her fumble with the song. He asked the producer to stop the beat then went inside. He took the headphones off her ears and sighed.“Eileen, can you get over your f**king problems and sing the damn song? When you get into the studio you’re not Eileen you’re silver stars… you’re silver stars till you leave the studio” Louie barked.Eileen sat down quietly as tears flowed down her cheeks. She wiped her tears and snatched the headset back. Just then she snapped back to life and started to sing and dance. Louie smiled and returned to his post. After hours of recording Eileen stepped out of the studio and just left not saying a word to anybody.When they got home a delivery was made to their door Eileen happily went to grab the pack and went to the dining table. Louie just stood there staring at her, that was the first time he was seeing her smile the whole day. He walked up to
Benjy tried to push the car but the paramedics arrived on time. Just in time for him to pretend he was trying to help Cody out of the car.“Fuck!” He yelled and pretended to pass out. Mrs. Whyte was trying out her new thread mill when Cara rushed in. “Mum, turn on the tv!” She yelled and run past her to the living room.Mrs. Whyte frowned and gently got off her thread mill and made for the living room. “What the hell’s going on?” She asked when she got there. Cara was in tears and pointing to the t.v.“Cody! Cody was in an accident…” she said in tears.Mrs. Whyte turned to tv and screamed “oh God my baby, oh God my baby!” She run out of the house with Cara tagging after her. Nina stepped into the mansion that she and Cody called home and sniffed the air. She smiled and walked in Rosario saw her from upstairs and the old woman was conflicted as to whether to hide or just go about her business. Since Cody had reinstated them after she sacked them they thought hell would break loose i
Benjy opened his eyes on the hospital bed and his eyes immediately met Rosa’s. He sat up slowly.“I checked your vitals you seem okay for someone who was involved in an accident, but you’d have to lay here for a while I need to examine you a bit longer” she instructed.“Where’s Cody?” Benjy asked almost immediately. Rosa stared at him confused, she wondered if he had lost his mind from the collision.“Who’s Cody?” Rosa asked.“Cody Whyte, I don’t know why I’m asking you, but I was in an accident with him, I don’t have insurance I can’t cover the cost involved in his repairs and hospital bills…” he ranted.“Wait, you were in an accident with Cody? Who caused it?” She asked suddenly remembering how Cody dumped her“It was obviously my fault if the family finds out it’s my fault I can’t cover the cost involved please allow me to get out of this” he said made a dash for the window and jumped out of it.“Hey wait!” Rosa yelled she sat on her desk with a thud. Did she just hear that Cody ha
Rosa got closer and whispered in his ear.“Unlike some people, I don’t wish you dead, I want you to live paralyzed, so I can torture you anyhow I want! You’ll be at the mercy of everyone you have wronged”She got up quickly when she heard approaching footsteps. Soon the door flew open, Tia and Mr. Whyte walked in. Tia burst into tears upon seeing Cody and rushed to his side she covered her mouth with her hands.“I’ll advise that you don’t startle him with too much noise” Rosa cautioned and Mr. Whyte stared at her suspiciously.“I’ll take my leave then” she said and left the room before Mr. Whyte could ask her anything. “Who allowed this woman to attend to Cody?” Mr. Whyte muttered to himself.“Mr. Whyte, do you think he’ll be okay, he doesn’t look good, is he going to die?” Tia cried.Mr. Whyte remained silent, he didn’t know if Cody was going to survive the crash, but if he did it was going to be a very painful journey for him. He thought about all the surgeries he’d have to go thr
Nina stood at the window sill of the bedroom that used to be Cody’s. She looked out the window and saw Mr. Whyte and Cara stealing out of the house, she wondered why they were going at the time of the night. It began to dawn on her that it had something to do with Cody, she grabbed her coat and was about to leave her room when Mrs. Whyte stepped in holding some medication.“Hey… are you stepping out?” She asked her smile fading into worry.“I just wanted to take some fresh air” she responded trying to not mention anything about Cody’s dad and sister.“It’s too cold outside what if you catch a cold, please don’t do that, don’t you like us? Don’t you like it here?”“Oh no Mrs. Whyte on the contrary I do” she answered and Mrs. Whyte smiled.“I’m glad you do, see I brought you something” she handed her the medicine. Nina took it and examined it.“Folic acid?” She asked.“Yeah very good for pregnant women, helps you deliver healthy babies”“Thanks a lot for this” Nina said with a smile.
“So with the interrogations why are they not doing it tonight?” Eileen asked in order to be sure they hadn’t already started the investigation process.“Most of the paramedics that rescued Cody have another emergency tonight, so the investigators are on standby” Cecily responded as they made their way to Cody’s ward. Eileen immediately stopped in her tracks, Cecily turns to look at her.“What’s wrong?” She asked.“Is my crush in a very bad condition?” Eileen asked and Cecily chuckled.“Didn’t you already consider that before stepping in here to visit?” Cecily asked. “Well we’re almost there you’ll see for yourself”Eileen followed her to the ward, when the door opened her jaw dropped at the amount of tubes and machines strapped to his body. She began to feel like a monster, what on earth have I done to another human being. Someone’s only son, someone’s husband, the father of her child. She covered her mouth and ran out of the ward.Cecily chased after her but stopped midway and watche
Eileen sized Nina from head to toe before extending her hand to receive the handshake Nina had offered. She quickly withdrew her hand and faked a smile and Nina found her behavior rather strange and so did Cecily. To Eileen, Nina was a plain Jane, too plain to be married to someone as charming as Cody. The only make up she had on was her lip gloss, she was naturally good looking though, she had to give her credit for that. “Does mum, know you’re in here?” Cecily asked breaking the silence.“No, please don’t tell her else she’ll kill me” Nina replied.The conversation piqued Eileen’s interest, did Cody’s mother not like Nina? She really hoped so but what she heard next watered her down. “Nina she’s doing this for your own good, you know how much she cares for you” Cecily said. “I really wanted to see him, it hasn’t affected me in anyway and being with him now has lifted my spirits” Cecily smiled and went to hug her and Nina seized the opportunity to whisper in her ears.“Cody held
Meanwhile, back at Golden Springs Cody had left an amount of money in Myra’s account and made her a permanent staff at the C.P. corporation. She had moved in with Tia and Cecil because Cody made her Cecil’s guardian in his will. Tia and Monica dressed Myra up for her graduation Cecil ran around telling Myra how good she looked in her dress.“I wish Mr. Whyte was here to see me graduate,” Myra said as tears welled up in her eyes.“Don’t cry, don’t ruin the special moment Mr. Whyte would want you to smile today” Monica consoled her.“But I miss him… I miss him today more than ever” Myra said fighting back tears.“I miss him too Myra, I cried so much last night, he was like a son to me,” Tia said as a tear dropped down her cheeks Myra hugged her as they cried and consoled each other.“Stop it, ladies! Myra, you’re ruining your makeup!” Monica cautioned them. Cecil ran across the hall shouting “Mama! Uncle Seth is here!” “You see? Now you’re going to be late because you ruined all the m
After Myra gave her account she was allowed to go but Nina was still in police custody. She stepped out of the station and saw Dylan, she walked up to him and exchanged pleasantries with him.“I saw you here yesterday and a few days ago, is Nina your friend?” She asked.Dylan stared at her from head to toe before nodding to her question. “I don’t think it’s a good idea to keep Nina there any longer, she doesn’t look good” Myra stated.Dylan was surprised by her outburst, how did she know he was there for Nina?“There’s nothing we can do about it, she’s in there for arson” Dylan replied.“I was locked up with her all morning and she told me she was in an asylum once, can’t we use that to help her get out?” Myra said. Dylan’s eyes lit up he didn’t know who Myra was but he was thankful to her. He had no idea Nina had been in an asylum but hearing it now filled him with hope to get Nina out.Eileen stayed in the trailer trying several times to locate Benjy. On the night of the murder, C
Cody’s family swarmed into the investigation room Detective Ruger called for Jamal to bring Nina in. They both came in in a few minutes and sat down, Nina had puffy eyes and so did Mrs. Whyte. She was surprised to see Nina brought in all along she was expecting Myra.“Why is Nina being held in here?” She asked immediately.“She set fire to Cody’s property” Jamal answered.“You? You Nina? You wanted Cody dead?” Mrs. Whyte exclaimed.“Calm down, Cindy” Mr. Whyte patted her on the back.“But I didn’t kill Cody, someone else must have done it and it’s not me” Nina answered crying her eyes out.“Right so I told you about two key witnesses that would help us with this case, I’m bringing one of them in now,” Detective Ruger said and spoke into a small mouthpiece. Soon Dylan came in looking haggard with bloodshot eyes.“Dylan?” Nina exclaimed in shock when she saw him.He looked pitifully at Nina who looked pitifully back at him, he also took a seat in a solemn mood.“The people who killed m
Myra and Tia were in town, Tia had offered to take Myra out to show her around Witting to which the latter readily agreed. Tia really went out of her way to cheer Myra up, she had grown fond of the girl after realizing how innocent she was and how lovely she could be. She really wished Cody hadn’t done what he did to her and this was her way of apologizing to her, when it was getting dark they made their way back to the apartment. Myra they were in the kitchen happily chatting and cooking when Cody came in, no one said a word to him.Myra wasn’t ready to forgive him and Cody didn’t know whether to plead with her or just let her be. In the end, he just joined them in the kitchen trying to get Myra to talk to him.“Myra, do you have lectures anytime soon?” He asked.“Why are you talking to me? I asked you why you were leaving your wife, and you gave me no reply why should we continue talking if you won’t answer my questions don’t ask me questions too” she snapped at him.“Myra, the rea
They had just arrived and they were leaving already Myra was annoyed.“Where are you taking us again Cody?” She demanded a response impatiently.“Myra, calm down we’re going to my other residence then we can talk fully about everything” Cody explained gently.“Why can’t we talk in your house?” Myra inquired angrily.“Because my ex-wife is going there and she’s going to cause a scene if she sees you” Cody explained.Myra fumed angrily “Ex-wife? Cody why didn’t you tell me about all this, she’s not even your ex-wife you liar”Tia reached out and patted Myra on the back since she was seated in the passenger seat behind her.“Myra, can you please calm down for me till we get to our destination?” He pleaded with her.Myra swallowed hard like she had a lump in her throat. She couldn’t believe she had followed Seth all the way to Witting to listen to the explanation of a man who had lied to her. “Myra! What were you thinking?” She asked herself over and over till they got to corn street an
Eileen contacted some of her men to help her get Benjy out of prison. Benjy had broken out of prison before he can do it again with a little push, she thought. At night she sat in an abandoned trailer waiting for Benjy’s escape. This had always been Benjy’s hideout when he had a lot of missions to accomplish so when he finally broke out of jail he headed for the trailer. He was happy when he got to the trailer and Eileen was there waiting for him.“Benjy!” She exclaimed and ran to hug him. He melted in her embrace, it was nice to have Eileen hugging him if only he had been bold enough to tell her how he felt about her, maybe they wouldn’t have been in the mess they were in right now.“Cody is suing me, I thought Rosa’s death would end everything but I was wrong, we were too late he already has all the evidence,” Eileen said.“Is he suing only you or both of us?” Benjy asked.“He sued me, he took advantage of the fact that you were in prison and sued me naming you as my accomplice” E
The phone beeped and Cody answered it. Immediately he did Mr. Story informed him about the death of Rosa.“It happened a few minutes ago but they were able to save the baby girl, guess who was arrested for the shooting?” “Eileen?” Cody asked.“Her bodyguard, I guess you should’ve hurried with your investigations,” he said.“Don’t worry I have all the documents now, the court will summon her, Mr. Story there’s something I need to tell you?” Cody said solemnly.“Go ahead” “I’ve just filed for a divorce from Nina, I’ve thought long and hard about it and I’ve concluded that she doesn’t deserve all I’ve done to her,” Cody said.Mr. Story was silent, he wanted Cody to leave Nina a long time ago but kept his thoughts to himself. Now was not the time to leave Nina, she was having a mental breakdown and he was afraid she would lose it if Cody left her.“Cody, do you think this is the right time? Nina isn’t in her right mind…”“Which is all my fault, the longer I stay with her the more I dam
Alas! Benjy had been able to spot Rosa, she was on her way back from her private antenatal appointment, she was heavily pregnant and dragging herself to a car that had a door opened. Dylan appeared from behind her and rushed to her side then helped her into the car. When the car left he called Eileen.“Guess who I just found… Rosa”“Did you kill her?” Eileen asked immediately she heard Rosa’s name.“That wouldn’t have been possible she was in public and she’s heavily pregnant” Benjy replied.“I don’t care if she’s 80 years pregnant just shoot her and you better do that now” Eileen yelled at him.Without any further thought, he followed the car. Dylan had dropped Rosa at home and was on his way back to the office, the birth of his daughter was a few weeks away and he anticipated the day when he was going to finally hold her in his arms. Meanwhile, Benjy had knocked the security guard out and put on his uniform then made straight for Rosa’s residence. She was looking at some baby clot
A few weeks at the private asylum and Nina had aged, she had refused to eat or sleep and had to be put on medication and a drip. Amaya had cried her eyes out when she saw Nina in that state, now that it was the dawn of her birthday she lay quietly. Thinking back to 5 years ago when she had finally decided to Cody go. The twins, that was the day she found out about their conception, that was the door she went crawling back into a marriage that wasn’t meant to be. She looked at Amaya who sat beside her throughout all the time she was losing it and tried to be there for her. She had cried through the ordeal and even broke down than Nina’s birth parents.“Happy birthday Nina” Amaya whispered.“Thank you… did Cody come?” She asked calmly.Tears welled up in Amaya’s eyes as she shook her head slowly.“But if you relax he might show up” she answered with a forced smile on her face.“How are the twins?” Nina asked again.“They’re doing well at their grandparent's place” Amaya answered.
