Melanie nodded, this what she actually wanted, discovering the truth about herself and trying to set her life straight, she turned the door handle, she could feel her nerves going cold, she all of a sudden felt nervous, perhaps because she didn’t know what to expect from the doctor or what might become the outcome of the visit, she pushed the door open slowly walking in with few steps, she shut the door behind and was dazzled by the beauty of the office, very neat, beautiful and it had pictures of various organs in the body hanging carefully on the walls, the doctor looked up at her, he was middle aged and sitting comfortably opposite where she stood, he looked up at her and smiled exposing his white set of teeth “you didn’t change much Melanie Clifford, you have really grown” he said grinning.
Melanie didn’t know what to say, she didn’t know if she should smile back or maybe say thank you after all it was more like a compliment, she rather
“It’s obvious that your health have progressed unlike when you were found, you see… years back a man and a woman who happened to Mr and Mrs Clifford, same people that adopted you had gone on a boat trip when they found your body floating on the ocean, you had this heavy scare on your head and you were unconscious, at first when they brought you in here, we doubted that you would survive but you did though you had a fractured brain which actually affected your memory, you couldn’t remember your name, what happened to you, who you were or where you came from, we also found out that you were pregnant with twins, you should be between the age or sixteen or seventeen then” he informed.Melanie gasped looking away “pregnant??” She repeated, she couldn’t believe this, does that mean that Charles isn’t actually Brenda’s father? How come the doctor said she was pregnant with twins but she only has one child with her “d
Rose have been at home all day thinking of the best and possible way to stop Charles from doing what he has decided to do, she couldn’t afford to sit with her fingers crossed and watch him rip her off everything she believed she worked hard for, she insists over and over again that she was the only reason why Melanie’s parents ever trusted him, she was the reason why Melanie also agreed to get married to him and here he is, finally when what they have been watering for years is ready for harvest, he wants to divert it all to himself, a thought had clocked her mind that afternoon when she was enjoying her lunch in the living room, she was scrolling through her phone as well and bumped into Charles’s contact, she thought of calling and maybe a conversation or two between them would smooth out their differences as they have not been talking since the last time Charles left her house but on remembering Charles last words to her and how he looked determined, it was cert
Rose ate in silence, she couldn’t get her mind off the thought that Charles was smart enough to remove the documents from the house knowing fully well that she would come for it, she was glad that he didn’t underestimate her capabilities but he was wondering where he might have kept it, if it wasn’t in his room then where else could it be? She munched slowly on the food Melanie had served her sipping the glass of juice in front of her at intervals, Melanie sat opposite her, eating slowly as well while she thought about Rose and her evil motives, she just couldn’t wait to have her leave already as she was tired of watching her boss her around claiming to be her husband’s sister, well she couldn’t act otherwise else she would be in big trouble, she just needs to keep playing the dumb Melanie everyone knows, in few minutes Rose was done with her food, she moved quietly to the couch and sat there, she just couldn’t believe that she was unable to
Melanie was sure that Charles had gone to Rose’s house, well whatever the case might be, she didn’t seem to care, she just couldn’t wait to watch them fight each other especially now neither of them trust each other, she brushed her hairs behind her ear fling the rest which have crippled out from her roughly packed her, it scoffed feeling relieved that her plans were truly falling in place and just sooner or later, both Charles and Rose would find themselves behind bars where they truly belong, well her birthday wasn’t far from near which means Charles would do anything and everything to get the papers from Rose cause it was impossible for him to believe that she doesn’t have, who else would have been smart enough to take them after all?Melanie was all smiles, twisting the end of her dress slowly while she climbed the staircase to her room to check out the gadgets Mr James had helped her purchase, she got into her room and locked the door, she rem
Carmella beamed with smiles glaring at Melanie beneath her growl while waiting for her to take a sip from the glass of wine, Melanie quietly held on to the glass cup rubbing her left hand over and over again on her forehead, Carmella stood in front of her, she was getting pretty very nervous and anxious at the same time to see Melanie drink from the cup, she stood right in front of her bearing her glass cup in her hand with her gaze fixed on her, Melanie didn’t notice she was staring at her that way, she just couldn’t explain what was going on with her, she could feel an unusual burning sensation in her head, it was more like it was being ripped apart, she kept on seeing flashes of a girl pushing another girl off a cliff and the other girl falling helplessly into a big river landing her head on a large stone, she shook the flashes off over and over again hoping it would stop, she just couldn’t explain it and didn’t know if she should talk to Carmella about it
Charles bit bitterly on his lips while he drove down the road, he could feel his blood boiling in his veins and his heart pumping blood really very fast, his eyes had turned blood shot and he was scared that he might do something terrible to Rose, it was so obvious that his temper was beyond control, he rapped his hands around the steering making his grip even more tighter than he previously was, he was careful not to bypass traffic to avoid attracting the police or any other security personnel’s as the outcome might even be more disastrous cause he wouldn’t stop even when they have asked him too, he kept his eyes glued to the road and gnashed his teeth at interval, he couldn’t wait to get his hands on Rose and make her pay dearly for what she has done, of everything Charles expected her to do, he did not for once imagine that Rose would go this far not to talk of making away with the documents which proves he has legal rights to Melanie’s inheritance though
Finally he parked his car in front of her apartment, he huffed and puffed loudly, he ran his hands under his jaw and grinned softly at himself, he knew that he wasn’t the nice guy most people thought that he was, he is rather everyone’s nightmare just like he is about to become a horrible night mere to Rose. He sat there in his car rubbing his palm over and over again, he took a deep breath and finally stepped down from the car adjusting his clothes.Earlier…Rose had arrived home looking very upset, her face boiling with rage, she just couldn’t explain how she felt but she didn’t feel good at all, she had driven into the compound roughly, she felt exhausted and at the same time disappointed, her plans failed, her plans of stealing the documents from Charles house and paralyzing him failed woefully, she had so much confidence that her plan would definitely, she was so sure that the documents were in that room, she moved over to her bar an
Rose was forced out of her sleep when the knock came over and over again, at first she was startled, she gasped realizing that she had fallen asleep, she took a quick glance around without realizing that someone have been at the door knocking for a couple of minutes, though she vomited most of the whiskey she took, some of it still found it’s way down to her body system which ended up weakening her muscles, she sighed running her hand across her forehead, she felt an unbearable headache for her moment and winced in pain.Then their came the knock, it sounded pretty louder than the one that woke her up previously, she struggled to stand wondering who was knocking, as a matter of fact she wasn’t expecting anyone so she only wondered who might be at her door, She moved slowly towards it feeling totally reluctant, standing in front of the door without asking who it was, she unlocked it and pulled it open, she gasped at the sight of Charles, he was the last person she
