Chapter thirty-fourReturning his phone, she looked up and he was still staring at her, then she said, "Have it, my number is there, you can call me anytime," Saying that, she left."It's alright, thank you... I'll give you a call." He said, collected his phone and followed Mr Steven.He has delayed his conversation with Mr Steven with fake calls to monitor how things work in the company. Cindy has finished arranging her working stuff in the drawer and was waiting for Eduardo.She was tired of sitting down, so she stood up and picked up her purse from the table.Immediately she picked it up, the door opened and he walked in majestically."Sorry for keeping you waiting, one of my clients has been stressing us, but I have given them instructions on how to follow him so we can go now."Eduardo said and they both walked out of the department, the moment they stepped out of the mean door,Jerry saw them and quickly cut his conversation with the manager and rushed out, but before he reache
Chapter thirty-fiveSo seeing the picture, she called the number and the person picked up."Hello," Cindy greeted."Hi,""Who are you to him?" Cindy asked curiously."Well... I have more information for you, just squeeze out time and meet me at Wanton Garden.""My question is, who is..." Before she completed her question the person on the order side disconnected, then she tried to call back but it wasn't connecting.She wanted to know more about Eduardo because he doesn't like saying anything about his past and they have been in a relationship some months, but he refused to introduce her to his family.So now that she has gotten the person that would at least tell her who Eduardo is.Yes of course Cindy knew Wanton Garden, she has been there once, so she wouldn't miss this opportunity.Cindy did her work very fast like never before just to meet up with time and immediately after she finished, she went and took permission from one of the directors.Just like Eduardo said that she has w
Chapter thirty-sixJeffrey did what he did to let Eduardo know that he knew what was going on between the both of them and he was going to do to her what he has always done to others.He did that to remind him that he was still in the city because he knew that Eduardo was aware of his presence in the city. Even though they haven't come across each other, since Jeffrey entered the town.******Jessica has just entered the city and it was dusk already, so she went to a hotel and lodged a room.Then the following day, very early in the morning she left the hotel to her house, reaching there she noticed that her brother locked the building.As she was about to remove her phone from her pocket to call her brother Jerry, she recalled that she kept a spare key to the house under a flower vase in the middle of the compound.Then she rushed there and luckily she found the key just as she kept it, so she picked it up and went to the door.Immediately, she opened the door and entered with her b
Chapter thirty-seven"Okay, I'll give you a call when am done with it." Eduardo said and Dean rushed out of the gate, entered his car and drove straight home.The moment he opened the door, he noticed a strange movement in the house.Gently he walked into the sitting room but didn't see anyone, then he ran to the window and shifted the curtain, he saw a man that jumped out through his fence."Holy shit !!!"He uttered and not being moved by what he saw, he gently strode to Cindy's room to check on both sister and friend.Opening the door, he saw Cindy lying down on the bed while sitting on the sofa was Kate who was busy with her phone, so he robbed his palms and greeted her, "Hi,""Dean, you're back, I thought it was you who entered the house a few minutes ago but when I rushed into the sitting room, I found no one, so I've to return to the room."Kate explained and Dean smiled, pretending that nothing happened but he knew that it was Jeffrey's men."I am back now, what did you have
Chapter thirty-eightBut now that everything isn't going the way she wants, that means, it's beyond her power, so Jessica now made up his mind to help her."What did you want me to do for you?" Jessica asked."I believe that you telling your father that you don't want my son, would make things easier for both of us," Taking a deep breath she continued,"He would consider me if you're the one rejecting my son..." "Listen, Mrs Hudson, whatever you have with my father should be between you... I am no longer interested in your son anymore." Jessica said coldly."Okay... Can you help me to let your father know that you're not interested in the marriage anymore?" "Sure... You can go now." Saying that, Jessica stood up and went into her house, then Mrs Hudson raised her two arms to the sky and said, "Thank God!"Saying that she walked out of the compound, entered her car and went home.******Cindy and Kate were chatting in the room when her phone beeped Without a flash on the screen.She
Chapter thirty-nineHe creased his eyebrows, throw his sight on the graves and answered, "I came to meet them as well."Saying that he stepped closer to the graves and said, "Hi...Mr and Mrs Schneider, I came to thank you, especially for having brought such a wonderful creature into this world..." Looking at Cindy, he held her hand tenderly and gave her a gently pull, making her step closer to him, then he continued,"I'm here to make my intentions clear to you as well... I love your daughter Cindy so much and I want to marry her... I promise you that no harm will come her way and I'll always be there for her... Am I accepted as your son inlaw?"He asked and that same calm breeze blew again and both of them felt it, so they looked at each other's faces and Cindy smiled,"They accepted you as their son-in-law... Can you feel it?" She asked and of course, he felt it.Eduardo nodded and hugged her so tight, after a moment, he loosen his arms and gently he gave her a peek on her forehead
Chapter forty"Hello, Mr Eduardo... congratulations, I am happy for both of you and I wish you a successful and happy married life." Kate greeted and congratulated him."Thank you... Kate." Eduardo answered and looking at Cindy he said, "Beauty... You're going to leave in my house from now." Saying that he smirked at her and asked, "Are you ready to go now?""Of course, are you asking her,...Uh-oh! Mr CEO, when it comes to work you'll know how to issue orders but right now you're acting like staff waiting for an order from the CEO." Kate said jokingly, raising her eyebrows and four of them started laughing. Cindy was still contemplating what to say, when she heard Kate saying that, so she pouted and eyed Kate.Eduardo saw how she was eyeing Kate, and then he said, "I don't know that you have such a dangerous weapon with you..."Dean and Kate laughed and Eduardo ran his fingers through his hair and continued,"Calm down, don't hurt her, you're free to say your mind but left for me y

Then he wondered if nature was also working against him by not letting her to be killed.Being an evil person immediately he saw her, an evil thought to kidnap her came to his mind. So he turned his car and followed them.The moment he saw the building they entered he speedily drove away not knowing that someone saw him.Mrs Rose was lying down on her bed when a call came in, she lazily picked up her phone and answered, "Hello,""Madam, Mr Black was following Eduardo and Cindy this morning... I think you should let them know." The person on the other side of the phone said and disconnected.Mrs Rose chuckled and slowly she
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." Uncle Linus robbed her palms together and asked, "That's the reason why I call

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...

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
