At Derrick's Residence, Derrick got out of the car and the driver drove the car into the garage to park. He made his way to the front door still thinking about the conversation he had had with Derry earlier. He was getting excited knowing something was about to change. Just before he could open the door, he remembered the DNA test results that said he was the father of the child Lyla was carrying."There is no way that could be tempered with, she didn't even know I was going to do that," Derrick thought, and his expression turned cold.He entered the house, changed his shoes, and proceeded to his study. His hand was on the doorknob about to open it when he heard a voice from behind him."Hey, you are back," came Lily's joyful voice.Derrick quickly snapped out of his thoughts and changed his cold expression to a happy one. He turned to face Lily with a smile."Hey, yeah, just getting in," Derrick announced with a smile."What is wrong?" Lily asked not fooled by the fake smile on Derric
Lily Shawn Chapter 97: Total Chaos
Lyla and her aunt stood in the living room looking at the scene before them.Derrick checked the date on the marriage certificate. It was the same day he had accompanied Lyla to the hospital for her antenatal. So how could they have gotten married if they were both at the hospital? Lily's voice interrupted his thoughts"Derrick, when were you going to let me in on all of this?" Lily questioned in tears."Believe me, Lily, I know nothing about this. I didn't sign this. I was never there," Derrick defended in one breath still standing, but his gaze was on Lily."Okay, the date on the certificate, was last Tuesday. That day I remember you left home early. I know you didn't go to the office because Marcus was here to pick you up. Where did you go?" Lily questioned, trying to hold back her tears.Lyla and her aunty made themselves comfortable watching the two argue about the marriage certificate."I took Lyla to the hospital for her checkup. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to hurt y
Lily Shawn Chapter 98: Derry finds out about Lyla's Pregnancy
Derrick started his story starting from what happened in California."Well, I decided to take my love, Lily, on a vacation. She had an accident and was recuperating. We figured a change of environment would help a lot. We went to California. On one of our outings, I ran into Lyla. This is where it all started," Derrick narrated half drunk."Lyla?" Derry repeated the name recalling the woman he had fallen in love with also called Lyla. " The woman I love is called Lyla. I met her in California. Are we talking about the same person?" Derry asked surprised."Yes. It is the same person we are talking about. Lyla, that daughter of Jezebel. She is out to destroy me," Derrick confirmed for Derry almost in tears as he had Luis had already told him about Lyla and Derry. "If I were you, I wouldn't give my heart to that monster," he said with an angry expression. She would put it in a blend and grind it. She is obsessed with me," he added."Calm down. You are drunk." Derry tried to calm Derrick
Lily Shawn Chapter 99: Derry gets Disappointed
The rest of the journey was done in silence as Derry processed what Derrick said and Derrick thought of how to prove his innocence to Lily and what to do with two pregnant women in his apartment."I need to see Luis and find out the latest update on the investigation," Derrick thought.He made a decision and broke the long silence in the car."Derry, I would need you to drop me off at a friend's place," Derrick requested and Derry instructed the driver to turn around as Derrick gave him Luis's house address.Derrick pulled his phone out of his pocket and first called Marcus to inform him he would not be coming to the office and after he called Rosy and equally informed her, he wouldn't come to the office. Rosy suggested to Derrick to come over to her house later in the day, so they talk, to which Derrick agreed.Derry dropped Derrick at Luis's and drove off. He was still thinking about everything Derrick had told him in the car earlier. He asked the driver to stop the car, which the dr
Lily Shawn Chapter 100: Had an Accident
Derry stared at her, not blinking for a while. He got up from his seat and joined hers. Lyla moved away from him putting a distance between them, but he drew closer, and she kept moving away, as he kept drawing closer until the armsrest of the sofa stopped her from moving any further."Wait, what are you trying to do?" Lyla asked realizing she couldn't move any further."Lyla," Derry mentioned her name seductively staring into her eyes. "I don't care if this baby is mine or not," he paused, put some space between them and shifted his gaze to the centre table.He had hoped the child was his. Then he could have used that as an excuse to be with her."I love you, Lyla. I love you," Derry said in a muffled voice looking down.Lyla stared at him for a while unable to blink. His words echoed in her head."You love me?" Lyla asked in bewilderment.No one had ever said those words to her before. Her crush has always been Derrick, since her school days, but he had never paid her any attention a
Lily Shawn Chapter 101: I Remembered Something
Lyla came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe and a towel on her head to dry her hair. Her phone rang and she dropped the towel at the back of the study chair and searched her bag for her phone as her hair flowed down her shoulder partly dried.She checked the screen, and it was Derry calling. She stared at his name flashing on her phone screen and she sat on her bed in frustration. She rubbed her temple and covered half of her face with her palm. The call dropped but before she could toss the phone away it started ringing again. It was Derry. She rolled her eyes and decided to answer the call."What do you want?" she said impatiently."Hey, love, slow down. What happened?" Derry asked with concern."Nothing, it's just that, this can't continue," Lyla retorted."First things first, I called to find out if you are safely home. You wouldn't let my driver drop you," Derry said with concern."Yes, that is because I don't want anyone to know I was with you," Lyla retorted."You want our

Derrick responded with a "hmm" and kissed the top of Lily's head."It will be good to go to the hospital first," Derrick said in a low voice and Lily nodded.Derrick got up from the seat and went to his desk to retrieve his phone. Lily was left sitting on the sofa in a daze still thinking about Aunt Nora and if she was okay. Derrick made a call to the hospital and quickly booked an appointment for 3 p.m. It was an hour away. Lily lay on the sofa resting her head on her hand. Looking at the time, Derrick decided to get some work done before they set off for the hospital.Back at home, Lyla decided to take a walk around the house and also make a call."Hello," Lyla said as soon as the call connected."Hi, how are you?" came Mr Mingle's voice."I am not okay. It appears whatever we are doing is not having an impact on Derrick and Lily. The idea is for me to have Derrick but currently, I feel like one of the decorations in the house," Lyla complained."That is because you are not playing y
Lily Shawn Chapter 103: Lyla had really changed
"Step 1, come clean drama complete," she thought smiling ear to ear about how things turned out."Now all I need to do is butter it up," she said and lay flat on the bed with a big smile plastered on her face.Inside the bedroom, Derrick sat on the chair behind a table working on some documents while Lily still slept. It was 10 a.m. when Lily eventually woke up and Derrick called the servants to bring her breakfast. He sat with her as she ate and went back to continue with his work as Lily went to take a shower. After dressing up, she returned from the bathroom and joined him to get some office work done as she did not want to sit idly.Lyla on the other hand, went to the kitchen and the servants were surprised she was not rude to them and even requested if she could help with the cooking. They were all shocked and neither of them could react for a long time."Hey, I just want to help," Lyla said sounding honest but they were still surprised. "I know I have been very mean to all of you
