Chapter one Cindy was always held in high regard by those who knew her. She had been blessed with a life of luxury and had never wanted for anything. Her parents, who cherished her deeply, were always at her side. Her generous nature and unassuming lifestyle made her a magnet for people seeking companionship. Her kindness knew no bounds and often exceeded people's expectations. However, fate took an unexpected turn when everything changed abruptly... She was widely recognized for her cheerful disposition and has recently undergone a significant change in her emotional state. Despite her previous reputation for being happy-go-lucky, Cindy is now exhibiting signs of sadness and moodiness that are quite out of character for her. This shift in demeanour has been noticeable to those who know her well, and it has left many people wondering what could be causing such a drastic transformation. While the reasons behind Cindy's newfound sorrow are not entirely clear, it is clear that sh
Chapter two Cindy thought her Uncle was joking but unfortunately, he wasn't playing around with her, he meant all that he said. Cindy went into the kitchen and prepared their breakfast quickly before she left for school. 'Her parents never allowed her to go into the kitchen, I'm sure of that, but how come she knows how to cook?' Mrs Black asked in her mind the moment she tested the meals on the table and shrugged. The following morning Cindy woke up with a splash of cooled water, she jumped down from the bed shivering, slowly she wiped water off her face and to her greatest surprise it wasn't who she had in mind. "Uncle?" Cindy whispered shockingly. "Cindy, I expected you to have finished with the cleaning of the house and maybe you will be preparing our breakfast by now... So what are you still doing on the bed?" Mr Black asked. "Uncle is just 4:30 a.m., how can I start working now? It's still very early." Cindy answered. Cindy's eyes widened and it was down on her that she h
Chapter three ****** Eduardo hopped out of the car just as the butler unlocked the main door of the mansion, he scampered into the house, he did not care if he hurt someone or not. He ran straight to his room to take his shower. "Hey...what the fuck!." Uncle Linus shouted. 'What on earth could make him run in this manner.' He stood there for some minutes gaping. A few minutes later, he didn't hear or see anything coming. He deliberately tip-toed in the direction of Eduado's room and barely opened the door to glimpse, but to find out that he was taking his shower, which made him surprised. He gently closed the door, "Huh... finish with whatever you are doing up there and come down and deal with me." He went back to the sitting room and waited for him. After some minutes he looked up and Eduardo was coming. 'Oh... my gush... Is this really Eduardo? I have never seen him looking this stunning before, I don't have to obligate him right now.' "Hello, Uncle... what's up." Eduar
Chapter four Dean stood up and walked himself out of the ward as he didn't want to bother the patient. "Hello, I received your note," Dean answered the call with an infuriated voice regardless of who he was. "Yeah." Eduardo gave attention to how he sounded and noticed that he was very angry with him, so he hesitated and took a profound breath. "Do you have any other speciality you need me to give attention to?" Dean asked and this time, he spoke calmly. "No, not really, I'll like to know if....erm." He stuttered for a moment and asked, "Are you taking off the hospital this night?" "No, I'm going nowhere, I'll stay around till she gets better. For God's sake, Eduardo, I didn't discover any information about her. Who am I leaving her for?" Dean replied offensively. "It's alright Dean..., just do whatever you think is acceptable," Eduardo said and disconnected. Dean dropped the phone and went back to the ward to look after her. Seven hours has gone and yet she was motionless
Chapter five"Okay, tell me, who's going to pick you up? Do you have anyone we can give a call?" Dean asked and was not ignorant of her reaction, immediately she heard his query, she became all moody."Cindy please say something, I know you have a lot going on in your mind right now, but you can still share it with me or are we, not friends yet?" He asked and as he was just looking at her, she replied,"I don't know why my mind is unburdened with you to share my misery with you, I trust you and I'll tell you everything." So she stood up from where she was sitting and folded her arms."I don't have anybody, my parents died in an accident years ago, but..." Saying that she hesitated and raised her head looking into the space."But what? Cindy?" He wrinkled and asked all patiently. "Yes, I have relatives who had always taken advantage of me as a maid, my uncle had never in his life taken care of me, even when people tried to help me because of my academic excellence, he warned me never
Chapter six"Oh come on..., you already know how bad it is, this house can automatically hide someone for eternity, Dean," He couldn't suppress his laughter anymore after hearing her banter, so he let it out.She heard his laughter and was gripped with anger, but she controlled her emotions and asked, "How was your day?""It was good..., anyways I'm on my way to see my boss and after that, I'll be coming home straight away." He knew that everything she needed was in the house, so he only needed to get ice cream and chips for her.She also felt like demanding for ice cream when she heard him say that he would be home very soon, 'Should I request for ice cream from him? No..., he must be very tired by now, let him just come back and rest, it's night.' then giving it a second thought she decided not to request for ice cream, so it was then she came out of her thought and she remembered that he was driving so she asked, "Aren't you driving?" "Of cause I am." He uttered and she said," Jus
Chapter seven "Yeah, I do..., I want to be great in life, I want to be like you, to live a better life, to work in a company or have my own company if possible and make cool money." Hearing her response, he stood up from where he was sitting and held her hand and asked. "So, why not go for it?" "What?" She asked all excited. "Yes, I said go for it, I'm gonna provide whatever you need for that, Okay?" he asked and squeezed her hands gently. "Like seriously..., you're going to do that for me?" She asked still after and tears started streaming down her cheeks. She hugged him and both of them hugged each other tightly, gulping his spit he said, "Yes of cause I'll do that for you Cindy, you don't have to cry, it's nothing, okay?" He asked and patted her back. He released his grip and cleaned her tears with the handkerchief he removed from his pocket and both of them sat down on the same sofa. Playfully he ran his finger through her hair, so she felt so relaxed and didn't know wh

Chapter sixty-nine"You're welcome," Eduardo uttered and left the sitting room.When Jeffrey saw him leaving, he lazily stood up from the sofa and said, "Nancy, it's a red wine... Be careful so that you'll not get yourself drunk."Saying that he walked through the same entrance Eduardo followed.******"What kept you guys since?" Uncle Linus asked."I needed to handle something..." Eduardo answered and Jeffrey walked in immediately."Okay, Eduardo, your cousin might not open up to you, but I am sure he needs your assistance... Check within yourself and choose any of the construction companies, make him the manager and guide him through." Saying that he cleared his throat, looked at Jeffrey and continued,"Jeff, I am excited that you have finally come back to your senses... And I believe that with your Cousin's help, you'll make a good husband and a good manager, take care of that innocent-looking girl."

Saying that he walked in the direction of a room as Eduardo was pointing in that direction.And the moment he entered, his feet halted seeing Cindy, "Cindy! Oh my God, I can't believe this... So am celebrating my big Sister and my newborn baby," Dean ran his fingers through his hair and quickly went and gave her a gentle hug, "Dean, how are you?" Cindy asked with a low voice as she was still lacking strength."Am fine... Cindy, am so happy to see you, I missed you so much," Dean said.Slowly, he loosened his arms around her and walked to t
Chapter sixty-sevenUncle Linus was taking his bath, so the moment he came out, he noticed that it was Eduardo's call he missed, he called back and he picked up."Hi, Uncle," Eduardo greeted."Hello, Eduardo is everything alright?" Uncle Linus asked."Yeah... Uncle, there's good news," Eduardo answered and he sounded so happy."Eduardo, what's happening? It has been a long time since I heard you talk in this manner.""Uncle, it's Cindy... She has finally woken up from the coma." Eduardo explained."Oh my God... Are you serious about what you just said?" Uncle Linus asked."Uncle, why would I joke around with something like this? I mean every single word that came out of my mouth."Eduardo said assuredly and Uncle Linus was silent for some minutes before he disconnected the call.Overwhelmed with joy and excitement, Eduardo quickly checked on Kate and her baby before heading to see the Doctor in his office.As he knocked on the door, he couldn't wait for the response and pushed it open
Chapter sixty-sixMr. Black arrived at Desmond's place. He went straight to his door and knocked but no one answered.He was already on his way out of the building when he saw a young woman enter the premises, so he called out, "Young lady, excuse me," The lady stopped and he asked, "Do you know the way about this young man that stays here and his family... I mean your neighbour, Mr. Desmond?" Mr Black asked pointing at his door.Immediately, the woman shook her head and answered, "No, Sir." Mr . Black nodded and said, "It's alright, thank you, Dear." Then the woman walked into her apartment without looking back. That night they noticed that it was Mr. Black that visited them, Desmond became restless, the moment Desmond closed the door and they went into their room, he remembered what the receptionist told him when he returned the key to the hotel after they rented an apartment."Congratulations, Mr. Desmond... Some guy came looking for you and based on what they told me, I thought
Chapter sixty-fiveThinking it might be one of their neighbours who needed their help or something else, Tina went and opened the door.Immediately she did that, her eyes widened seeing who was at the door.'How come this man found out that we stay here?' Tina asked inwardly, her forehead wrinkled showing how shocked she was.Mr. Black noticed how shocked she was and gave out a devilish laugh.Hearing his voice, Desmond quickly walked to the door, gently removed Tina's hand from the door and closed it, doing that he said,"Tina, you don't have to waste any time with him just close the door, let's go to the room," Desmond ordered.They walked into their room ignoring his father who was outside, standing in front of their door.Mr Black was humiliated, so he annoyingly left the place, entered his car and went straight home.******Immediately, Eduardo arrived at the company, he saw Jeffrey standing in the middle of the company.Eduardo matched the break and gently stepped down from his
Chapter sixty-fourSo he couldn't say those things he wanted to say again. Jeffrey has never stuck to any lady for a long time except his x girl and that was why it pained him so much when he caught her and Eduardo in the act.He patiently waited for the Doctor to finish the surgery.******Eduardo left his mother's ward and went straight to the surgery room where Cindy was, reaching there he saw Doctor Elvis coming out from the surgery room."Hi, Doctor," He greeted."Eduardo, what are you doing here?" Doctor Elvis asked. "Doctor, can I stay in there with her..." Eduardo asked gently.Doctor Elvis knew who Eduardo was and the moment he heard his request he lifted his head and looked at him.Doctor Elvis didn't know who she was to him but, he saw so many things in his eye which made him accept his request and it was against the rules of the hospital.The rule stated that no one is to be allowed to enter the surgery room but they're free to see the person through the glasses that surr
Chapter sixty-threeOne of those guys said and Mr Black was surprised to hear that no one was in the room, he didn't say anything and there was silence between them, so after some minutes, the guy took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Black, we are leaving the hotel now... Next time, make sure you check very well before sending men out for work.The guy said, disconnected the call and left the hotel with his friend and that was how Desmond and his family were saved.Immediately he dropped the call, he looked for their pictures on air but didn't find anyone.Mr. Black continued looking for them all over the city but couldn't find them. He was the only one looking for them, so it was difficult for him.He doesn't have any of their pictures so there's no way someone who did not know them would help him in looking for them without their pictures. ******He didn't want his mother to see him looking bloody, so Immediately he came back from the hotel, he went straight to Doctor Elvis's office a

But I want someone who would stay around and take care of my mother till I return.""Don't worry, the security in the hospital is now strong, Look at that guy sitting over there, did you recognize him?" Dean asked and pointed at the seat kept for patients who were waiting for Doctors to attend to them.Eduardo looked in that direction and nodded, "I know that face." Eduardo answered shortly and asked, "What's he doing here?""He? It's not only him... We have more of them around, so feel comfortable with whatever you want to do." Dean answered assuring him that his mother and Cindy would be safe.Eduardo nodded and left, Reaching the surgery room, he saw three Doctors trying their possible best to see that Cindy was fine.He didn't know if Cindy was going to make it or not, but he was going to leave them in the hospital for Dean
