2024-10-29 19:42:56Melanie was awake that morning, as usual she could hear the birds cawing from the roof top, she shrugged in discomfort, her body still aches from the previous day’s beating but that was the least of her worries, she was just worried on how to continue pretending that she doesn’t seem to remember whatever that happened the previous day especially now that she was aware that her best friend was having an affair with her husband, she took a deep sigh knowing it would be disastrous to let out the truth at this moment as she was still very much concerned to know why Charles has chosen to remain married to her despite hating her so much.
A man who doesn’t like a woman can’t possibly continue to live with her except their is something attached to all of it, Melanie was bound to found out, she wanted to start picking up the pieces of her life, she couldn’t leave Charles now cause she doesn’t know a thing about herself or her past, she was still in

Charles drove slowly down the road, he stopped at interval at the sign of the traffic light while he wished for the days to sweep by quickly so it would be Melanie’s twenty fifth birthday and her inheritance would be handed over to her so he can finally have them all, he called it a reward for all this years of putting up with her, he just couldn’t wait for that day to come anymore but it was only few days away. His phone started ringing, she slotted the AirPod into his ear in other to pick the call, it was Rose. She was in her apartment, relaxing with a cup of coffee on her table when she recalled that the inheritance they have all been waiting patiently for would finally arrive, she picked up her phone to call Charles. “How are you doing Rose? It’s unusual to have you calling this early” he said with his eyes steady on the road. Rose shrugged “I guess I am less important for you to call on a beautiful morning like this, unlike your numerous girlfrie

Charles couldn’t help mumbling to himself while he drove down the parking lot in his company, he wore a long face thinking deeply about Rose’s call which he found totally annoying.“She has no right to call me or ask of the inheritance, I give her what I deem fit and secondly, she doesn’t own me, it’s my life, I am Melanie’s husband and I can decide to trick her into transferring everything in my name and that would be the pay for all the years I kept her under my roof, all the years I fed and clothed her, I never wanted to marry her in the first, like… who wants to marry someone who cheated on you with your friend cause she has issues with her memory, Rose should better not get on my toes else she would be so sorry for herself” he gritted in anger.He had finally parked his car and alighted adjusting his jacket, he looked pretty smart in his black suit, blue shirt and a pair of black trousers and shoes, she shut the dri

Florence arrived few minutes later with a mug of coffee, she moved closer to Charles’s table and dropped the mug turning to leave when Charles grabbed her hand. She was surprised “is their a problem sir?” She looked worried. Charles laughed mockingly “come on Florence, enough of the drama already, I know you really want to say something about the other day, I know you still want more, I saw it in your eyes that day, you loved and enjoyed every bit if it” he stood up. Florence looked dumbfounded, lost in her own confusion as she couldn’t understand a single word of what Charles was talking about, she tried to get her hand off his grip but Charles held too tight, he stood quite close to her and this made her very uncomfortable. She was someone’s fiancée and it would be a huge mistake if her man walks in and finds her at a close range with another man especially if it’s her boss though she knew it wasn’t possible for her boyfriend to walk into Charles of

Few hours later…It was free period at the huge fabric production company where Charles and Florence worked.This was a time when workers and laborers were free to go have their lunch and get back to work in few minutes though each group of employees had in difference in a time space allowed for freedom during work.Florence sat with her hands supporting her cheeks, they had turned puce and looked faintly pale, the thoughts of Mr Charles attitude at the office was getting her even more worried with each second that swept by, though she was expecting a sack letter at any moment since she had the guts to raise her hand on him, she was also sacred that she might equally loose her relationship to this whole madness.

“I have got to go use the restroom, I would be right back” she walked away before Maggie could say another word.Maggie sighed, she looked away reluctantly and there came Mr Charles walking out of his office with his suitcase in his hand.She stood up and bowed in greeting.“Where is Florence?” He asked.“She went to the restroom” Maggie answered innocently.“I’m going home, I’m not feeling too well, so I would see you all tomorrow, make sure you tell her that” he walked away.Maggie shrugged “something weird is really going on around here and Florence is definitely telling me what it is.”Florence got to the rest room and sat on the toilet seat, she knew she wasn’t coming out at any moment, she just wanted to excuse herself from Maggie and perhaps think about herself and everything going on at that moment, secondly she was afraid of telling Maggie what was

Florence still sitting on the toilet bowel in the enclosed door bowed her head in discomfort mumbling over the recent behavior of Mr Charles and how horrible it would be for her to start telling Maggie about it who might end up thinking that she is crazy for calling their boss a liar, she already did enough by hitting him, talking to other staffs about it might end up getting her even into more trouble cause no one would surely take sides with her, after all what lady in her right senses wouldn’t want to have something to do with the boss who is rich and possibly guarantee her a promotion? Well Florence is one lady who would never fall for anything material cause she loved her relationship more than any other thing in the world.She have been dating her boyfriend for the past two years after she had a terrible heartbreak from her ex who broke up with her few days to her wedding for no reasonable reason, she could recall how embarrassed and ashamed she was of herself dur

Melanie had Brenda eat lunch and escorted her to her room to rest, in few minutes the little girl was fast asleep.She crept out of the room looking a little worried, she went straight to her matrimonial room which she had moved out of leaving it all to Charles, ever since she notice she was getting well, she knew it was wise to secure some privacy for herself.Quickly she unlocked the door to the room and got in closing the door behind, she took a deep breath, her eyes searching desperately around the room not like she had a particular thing she was looking for but she felt the need to look for something.Slowly she started searching, from drawer to drawer, down to the wardrobe when she suddenly stumbled upon a blue file with a red ribbon on it, she picked it up at once and moved over to the bed where she sat, quickly she opened it and took glances from pages to pages, this were more like documents to different properties, she rubbed her eyes over and over agai

Charles turned to her and gasped “and why are you standing there? Won’t I eat? What is wrong with you?” He yelled in rage. The thought of what happened in the office was still eating him up especially for the fact that his employee like he loves to call the staffs there raised her hand on him.Well the company actually does not belong to him, infact it has a manager and other people who are above him but because he is aware that the company is one of Melanie’s inheritance, he was sure that soon all legal rights of ownership would state that it belongs to him.“I’m sorry…” Melanie said looking very frightened.She hurried off to the kitchen and started dishing out his lunch while Charles relaxed on the couch with his suitcase and jacket lying carelessly on the floor, she looked like the shadow of himself thinking of the best way to handle Florence, he had the right to fire her since she was working directly under h

He asked turning to see his mother, the queen, Zara,Maria and Leonna sitting on the floor."I don't get this Azora, this is not our agreement, why the hell would you ask a servant to sit on my husband's throne?"

Would you get off that throne this minute!" He yelled at Joshua trying to grab him."If you dare touch me, trust me brother you wouldn't like what I would do to you, I have every right to be on this throne and if you're still so confused, maybe you should ask your beloved mother here" Terry said pointing at pointing at

At once he left his room to meet his mother and Carmella in the throne room, he tried greeting her to release him but she bluntly refused, for the first time he witnessed his mother swear over and over again to deal with Terry, she stood up pointing fiercely at her son “he brought that woman into this palace, she is not and will not be accepted here, I might spare her life and pardon her for what she did to the royal family, after all we have her elder sister here with us now to take her place but I would never accept her into this palace.”The king chortled “then get ready to loose your son and the king of this land” he said walking out on them.Queen Emma gasped in confusion.Carmella stood up and ran straight to her room shutting the door behind, she looked so upset, she turned the mirror and started summoning Azora and in no time she could see her image in the mirror , with so much bitterness behind her voice she told her all that was happening at that moment and Azora told her wh

Melanie had slept off in the hospital after having a good time with her daughter the previous day, she actually spent the night on the couch pondering over what Joshua had told her that evening especially about the wedding, she felt irritated and upset and wondered how many more evil people existed in the world if her own sister could go as far as wanting to marry her husband, her eyes gently went open when she heard footsteps approaching the ward, she felt really weak and her body ached a lot, she looked up and there stood the female doctor who have been taking care of her daughter, she smiled at her “good morning…” she greeted almost in a faint tone.
