Lily Shawn Chapter 138: Missing Father's Love
Rose realizing, she acted out of jealousy, was now feeling very bad about Luis's decision. Since their misunderstanding which led to the unpleasant reaction, Luis had never stepped foot inside the four corners of Lily's ward. Luis will drop her off and leave. When he comes to pick her up, he will sit and wait in the car. He would not even mention Lily's name. She had tried multiple times to even get Luis to mention Lily's name even if once, but he wouldn't. He was avoiding Lily and it was all just to make her happy. Rose lowered her head and shifted her gaze to the window feeling very terrible inside for what she made Luis do to Lily.The rest of the journey to the house was awkwardly silent. While Luis was thinking about how to get undeniable evidence to complete his work of clearing Derry and Lily's names, Rose was thinking about how to fix the friendship between Luis and Lily which she had destroyed with her unnecessary jealousy.Knowing Luis, Rose was very much aware Luis would do

Luis slowly removed Rose's hand from his chest and turned around to face her. He put her hands together and brought them to his lips dropping kisses on her hand. He lifted his gaze and stared into her eyes and he could see her guilt evident in her eyes."Please my love," Rose begged and Luis stared at her for a while."Okay, I will think about it," Luis replied. "Let me take a shower first and we can talk about it," he added and Rose nodded. Luis let go of Rose's hand and headed for the bathroom. Rose looked on as he entered the bathroom and closed the door. She went to lie on the bed in total resignation. In the bathroom, Luis stood under the shower putting his thoughts together. "Women are very complicated. First, she had a problem with me around Lily, and now she wants me to go see her," Luis thought but immediately corrected him."Wait she overheard my confession. Okay now that is different," Luis thought and he opened the tap and allowed the water to run over his body. He was

The court process was over and Luis was very confident in the defence he put up for Lily. With all the evidence submitted unless the judge is trying to pretend he didn't see them, there is no one he will lose the case. From the court he went home to get Rose and together, they left for the hospital to see Lily.After driving for half an hour, they soon arrived at the hospital. Rose was first to get out of the car and waited for Luis as he found a place to park the car. Luis soon joined Rose and they both walked into the hospital. As they were regular visitors to the hospital, they were able to skip the formalities and proceeded to Lily's ward. In the elevator, Rose looked at Luis and smiled. She reached out and held his hand. Luis turned to look at her briefly and smiled back while giving Rose's hand a gentle squeeze. "Why are you smiling," Luis asked after smiling back at her."Thanks for doing this for me," Rose said squeezing Luis's hand affectionately. "You don't have to thank m

Luis smiled and left the courthouse.The judge had ruled in favour of Lily clearing her name of all accusations levelled against her. Luis left the court in triumph, going back to his house. He knew there was still more to be done. He shared the good news with Rose as soon as he got home."You have never lost a case so I knew you would come home with good news," Rose praised and they both walked towards the living room hand in hand. "So, it's over now?" she asked with a smile. "No, it is not," Luis replied picking up the remote to turn on the TV."You mean there are more people out there who want to harm Lily?" Rose inquired. "Yes, Sheila was working with some people and those people are still out there. She may be gone but Jennifer is her mother and she is still around. I never trusted those two when they surrendered to the police," Luis explained. "Lily would not be free from attacks until we know the motive behind the attacks and all those involved arrested," he added."I see. So

The servant covered her mouth in shock at the same time Luis and Rose walked in.Luis cleared his throat to alert Derry and Lily that they were no longer alone. Derry snapped out of the moment immediately feeling embarrassed. For that split moment, he had forgotten about the servant's presence and now Luis and Rose were also there."Hi," Derry said awkwardly. "Dad, you are here, Aunt Nora," Lily shouted in excitement.Lily walked towards Luis and Rose. She hugged them together. Derry walked towards the window and leaned against it still feeling embarrassed but somewhere in his heart, he hoped Luis and Rose would not judge him. "Yeah, looks like you are going home today," Luis said noticing she was no longer in the medical dress and her stuff was all packed. "Yes, and I convinced Derrick to let me stay with him," Lily said smiling. "That is nice but you know that is wrong. You are not married to him yet so you can't just go stay with him," Luis pointed out and Lily frowned."So, yo
Last Updated : 2023-04-28Lily Shawn Chapter 143: I Will Not Accept This
Luis stared at Derry not sure how to react to his statement knowing he was also still in love with Lily. She is a woman every man will want.

Lyla's eyes widened upon hearing Derry's statement. She stood there for a while, unsure how to react to Derry's words."I see. So it is like that, huh," Lyla said and a tear rolled down her cheeks.Lyla turned and walked away after making her statement which was met with silence from Derry. Derry was surprised. He had never seen Lyla cry. Many times, he had tried to win her over she never gave in, she only gives in anytime he wants to be intimate with her but she never loved him back so what is her problem now? Why the tears? These thoughts ran through his head as he rubbed Lily's shoulders gently."Ivy, leaves here?" Lily asked breaking the silence after Lyla left."Who is Ivy?" Derry thought. "Wait, does it mean Derrick had a woman called Ivy?" he thought.He decided on a better answer to give to her question."She had an accident so I let her stay here so I can be sure she is following the doctor's instructions," Derry explained sounding honest."Oh mine, that is terrible, glad she

"Oh my God, where has she gone to?" Derry said feeling tensed.Derry searched the whole apartment going into rooms and still no sign of Lily. He began to panic, wondering what he would do if something bad happened to her."Please Lily be safe," he prayed silently in his heart.He went down the stairs and decided to go look for her outside the house because she was not inside the house. He went down to the garage using the elevator. He first checked the entire garage and there was no sign of her. He went out of the garage to the main compound, the garden and went round the house but still no sign of Lily."Did she go out of the compound?" he thought worried about her safety.He drove out of the compound and drove down the street with the hope of finding her walking around. After driving for a while, he saw a lady sitting on a bench with her head lowered."Lily," he exclaimed and quickly parked the car and got out of the car.He ran to the bench and tapped the lady on her shoulder thinki

Lily Shawn Chapter 181: Grand Celebration
Derrick went silent and lowered his head shocked by the news of his father's death."I was informed yesterday but I knew you were out on a date and I didn't want to spoil your evening with such news," Luis added and Derrick just nodded."I will be returning to Florida, later today. Just let me know if you need anything," Luis said and got up to leave.Derrick got up and escorted Luis to the door without saying anything but just nodding to whatever Luis was saying. He closed the door after Luis had left and out of anger punched the wall so hard, that he got injured in the process. As if he could not feel the pain, he gave the wall another punch. He turned and pressed his back to the wall and sank to the ground.Luis walked to his car and called Isabel."Hello Isabel, are you busy?" he asked."No, what's up?" replied Isabel."Kindly come over to Derrick's place. He is not alright. I just told him about his father," replied Luis."Okay, I will be there in 10 minutes," Isabel replied."Gr
Lily Shawn Chapter 180: Gone
Derrick lowered his head, disappointed. He did not know how to react to the news he had just received. It was his father all along. All the problems he and Lily went through were because of his father. Technically, Lily never had a moment of peace because of him. He recalled what Lily had said about having months of peace since he was out of her life. She was right after all. "When did you find out?" Derrick directed his question to Luis."Err, things become clearer the day you left Florida. I had always had my suspicion though," replied Luis."Why didn't you say something to me?" Derrick queried."Would you have believed me then without the undeniable evidence?" Luis asked advancing towards him.Derrick went silent and Luis patted him on the shoulder."I am truly sorry about your father. I wish he didn't do what he did," Luis consoled and left the two standing there."And you," Derrick said shifting his attention to Isabel who was still standing with him. "Did you ever love me or was
Lily Shawn Chapter 179: Mr Adrian Mingle's Trial
Luis, knowing what was going to happen, had already taken the first flight to Washington to defend Derrick.Arriving at Washington Central police station, Derrick saw on the TV screen what had transpired the night before, while he was in bed hugging Lily's dress. He was shocked to see what was showing on the screen."So that is why he got arrested?" Derrick thought as he was sent to the withholding cell.Derrick knew his father could do the unthinkable like when his father killed his friend and made him lose his memory but that was a long time ago. He thought he had changed."Drug and weapon trafficking?" Derrick thought. "When did he start doing such business?" he continued in his thought. "But why? As the head of Homeland Security, he earned good money, so why would he do this?" he thought. "Or did someone set him up?" he frowned while trying to understand why his father would do such a thing."Lucky you. Your lawyer is already here," came the voice of an officer interrupting Derric

Derry stared at Luis not sure how to react to the information."Does your wife know?" Derry inquired."No," Luis said and turned to face Derry. "When I found Derrick, I sent Isabel to his location to monitor him. Well, I didn't give her so many details aside from telling her I want her to monitor Derrick and report his activities to me and also to keep an eye on his father, Mr Mingle. I had found out the two were living together. Isabel got herself employed in Derrick's new company, Armani or something. Some weird name, I don't know how he comes up with company names. Anyway, Isabel got close to him and he found solace in her. I am not sure what happened. Isabel is very professional in her dealings but she yielded so I let them be," he explained."So Derrick doesn't know," Derry said."No, he doesn't. Isabel is a CID, but now she is in love with Derrick and she will come clean after our operation. She is a strong woman; she can handle rejection if things don't go well," Luis said raisi
Lily Shawn Chapter 177: Live Streaming - Part 1
Derrick spent some time with his children before leaving for his apartment. He decided to stay around for a while before going back to Washington. Derrick was back in his apartment, he stood in the living room recalling memories of himself and Lily. His eyes shifted to the dining area and he remembered the first time he had cooked for Lily. He recalled all the good times they had together. He went up to the bedroom. He opened the door and the familiar fragrance that used to greet him when Lily was in the room was no longer there. He scanned the room and the dressing table still had Lily's stuff on it. He opened the closet and her clothes were still in there. Neither Lily nor he returned to the apartment after Lily was rushed to the hospital. He removed one of Lily's dresses from the hanger and hugged it. It did carry traces of her scent. He walked to the bed and lay down on the bed hugging Lily's dress feeling regretful. His phone rang interrupting the moment. He searched for it and c

Derry left and Lily turned to face Derrick. There was silence in the room for 10 minutes but it felt like a whole day for Lily. Derrick cleared his throat and got up to sit next to Lily but she stopped him."Please, just sit where you are," Lily said with a straight face and Derrick sat back on his seat."I am sorry about that," Derrick said."Okay. Why do you want to see me?" Lily asked going straight to the point and Derrick exhaled deeply."Lily, I came here to apologize. No matter my explanation it doesn't change the fact that I abandoned you when you needed me most," Derrick began and Lily looked on with a straight face, constantly reminding herself Derry was just in the living room to keep herself calm."So, why did you leave? All I remember was you apologizing," Lily asked and Derrick remembered that day.He had spoken to his father and he left the hospital after. He recalled Lily's state when he left. Derrick narrated their entire life together as a couple and explained he didn
Lily Shawn Chapter 175: Clearing things up - Part 2
Derry felt Lily needed to know the truth and that would help her make a decision she would not regret. If Derrick's reasons were justified, she could go back to the man she had once loved. She hated him now because she didn't know why he left.He turned to look at Lily, she was asleep but the expression on her face said she was not happy even in her sleep. He got out of bed and went to the washroom and stood under the cold shower. The weather was that cold yet he took a cold shower. He returned to the bedroom to see Derrick had replied indicating he wasn't asleep himself. He sighed and left the bedroom for his study. He dialled Luis's number and he picked up after two rings."Hey men, do you have something against marriage fun?" queried Luis as soon as the call connected."Sorry to disturb you, I just needed someone to talk to," replied Derry sounding sad.Luis looked at Rose who was still sleeping and he went to the balcony."Hey, you don't sound okay, what happened? Is Lily aright?"
Lily Shawn Chapter 174: Clearing things up - Part 1
Derry joined his third and last meeting for the day. In the meeting, he was a bit distracted. He felt content in his heart, having adopted the children but was still afraid to advance his relationship with Lily, especially now that Derrick was back in Town."Will Lily go back to him?" Derry thought recalling Luis's several warnings."Sir, what do you think of the idea?" asked one of the board members.Derry sat at the head of the table surrounded by 6 board members, 3 on each side of the table. He could see their lips moving and images flashing on the projector screen but nothing they were saying was registering on his mind."Sir, Mr McClean?" the board member sitting closest to him called out to him."Yes," Derry responded snapping out of his thoughts."I just wanted to know what you thought of the idea for the project," the board member who had done the presentation asked again."Send it to my email, I want to go through it again and decide," Derry replied. "Is that the last idea pre

"Perfect," Luis said and Rose looked at him wondering what was on his phone that he was smiling about but he said nothing and continued driving."What is it?" Rose asked curiously."Just work," Luis replied and rubbed her chin with his thumb gently before putting both hands on the steering."Okay," Rose replied and kept her eyes on the road.As soon as they got home, Luis kissed Rose on the cheeks and quickly proceeded to his basement. Rose immediately knew the notification; he received in the car was probably a lead on the investigation. Meaning he had found something on Mr Mingle. She smiled and went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water and after she started preparing some tea for Luis.In the basement, Luis turned on the light and put all his machines on."My babies, Dad needs you to do something really fun for him," Luis said while opening some apps on the machines and waiting for other machines to fully boot.He connected the headset to the machine and put it on. He pulled a se
