We are enemies Rose, isn’t that the more reason why you are supposed to stay away from me?” He arched his brow.
Rose chortled “did you just say stay away from you? Maybe you have forgotten Charles that you and I have an unfinished business, you owe me and trust me I would not, I would never stay away until I have what rightfully belongs to me.”
Charles raised his brows “aren’t you supposed to be Melanie’s best friend?”
“And aren’t you supposed to be her dear husband you backstabbing bastard!” She cursed in rage.
Charles looked away, he felt really angered by her words and forced to react but he held himself “I came to take what rightfully belongs to me Rose, I didn’t come to batter words with you, just kindly give it back and I would be on my way.”
Rose’s eyes grew wide, she looked totally confused and didn’t understand what he was talking about “w
On Rose seeing the look on his face, she nodded in continuation to what she was saying earlier “yes, I didn’t know that you are stupid, infact you are the most stupid person I have ever met all my life, wait a minute! So because I came to your house and lied to your wife that I was your sister, you have the guts to walk into my apartment and turn the story around claiming that I made a way with some property documents, the same one you have in your care and perhaps have moved it to wherever you deem fit just to get it out of my reach” she grinned “well, one thing I am so glad about is that you didn’t underestimate me Charles, you didn’t… but you see this game you are trying to pull of here, I am so sorry to disappoint you young man but it won’t work at all, not on me Charles, you have failed woefully, come up with something else cause I am definitely not backing out of the quest to have half of Melanie’s inheritance, I don&rsquo
Her eyes gradually went bloodshot has her legs have been swept off the floor, she was hanging in the air at the mercy of the man who she had built her entire world around, at the mercy of the man whom she believed was her first and her last, the man she believed she would spend the rest of her life with, the last couple of minutes have been pretty hot, both parties exchanging words arguing over a couple of documents which was really very important, Charles knew he would be doomed if he doesn’t get his hands on those documents, whatever Rose’s plans were he couldn’t tell but what if she decides to go to the police or maybe to the lawyer to tell them everything, he couldn’t afford to spend the rest of his life behind bars, he shook his head desperately at that thought believing that Rose would never do something as ugly as that, after all she once confessed love to him and she would definitely end up behind bars with him if she goes ranting about anything but w
Rose gently struggled to stand on her fe wet holding the wall behind her, finally she was standing, her eyes were clouded with tears as she gritted her teeth, what exactly was she to say to Charles, admit that she has the documents when he knows she doesn’t have it and therefore try to blackmail him with it or just tell him straight to his face that his games on her wouldn’t work, but what if he had truly lost the documents and thinks she has it in her possession since she actually came to her house today? She thought to herself without looking at Charles, she sighed “Charles I know nothing of what you are talking about, you just tried to kill me just to prove what?”Charles gasped loudly feeling very much agitated, he couldn’t understand it anymore, why was she proving stubborn? Why was she making things very much difficult for him? These were the questions he kept asking himself looking so desperate for a response “Rose enough of this mad
“Are you asking me that Charles? You tried to kill me for goodness sake now you want to me to sit here and listen to your rubbish, I have nothing to say to you, leave my apartment this minute!” She yelled.His eyes grew wider “you want to yell? You really want to yell? Good! Go ahead and yell!Let us both yell, but I am not leaving this apartment until you give me what I want!”“Oh! Yes you would Charles, what do you even take me for? A fool? You always snapped life out of me now you want us to talk, you want us to have an agreement? Why didn’t you do that earlier or you think threatening my life would make me bend?” She raised her brows.Charles bowed his head, she was right after all, Rose had every right to be angry with him, after all he almost killed her but matters most is that he didn’t, he knew how stubborn she could be especially if she’s on her right and how good she was with arguments but that
He felt really tensed, his hands and feet shaking like one who was about loosing his mind, leaving Rose’s house especially without accomplishing his mission was the last thing on his mind, he couldn’t believe Rose was that mean to dare call the cops on him, he sighed deeply knowing he would have been in big trouble if he didn’t use the exit as quickly as he could, not like he couldn’t over power her even with the knife in her hand but gush… it was pretty risky and either of them might end up badly injured which was the last thing on his mind, his face was covered in a deep frown while he walked up to his car, he could barely lift it as he fixed it on the floor counting his steps and mumbling to himself like a man who had lost his home to a strange man, he shook his head sadly, what he was feeling and experiencing at that moment was worse than a person who had lost his home to a strange, how on earth is he going to explain that he lost the documents to
The young man walked into the house after she had opened the door and got to work immediately installing the cameras at every corner Melanie had asked him to, Melanie couldn’t deny the fact that she was fidgeting, scared of the fact that Charles might come home sooner or later and her game would finally be up, she was sure that so far she have been doing a good job but screwing it up was the last thing she ever wanted to do, she knew she needed to make both Charles and Rose pay for all they have done to her but this means she also needs to be smarter than they are and prove to them that she was never going to remain dumb for the rest of her life just like they had hoped, she watched as the man installed it all and when he was finally done, she grinned and thanked him, she escorted him to the door and asked him to thank Mr James for her, he nodded with a bold smile and left with his tool bag.Though Brenda was stuck writing her homework, she still noticed their wer
The sky was gradually getting dark, Melanie stood in front of her room watching the birds fly in groups to their various nests, the atmosphere looked a lot busy with the sounds of their wings clapping in the air and their whistling making the night look even more busier than it should, she folded her hands across her chest rubbing them gently, the weather was a little chilly though it made her feel cold but she loved the feeling, she smiled at intervals at the thought of all she have been achieve that day, she felt super proud of herself and the fact that she didn’t let anything stop her, she was glad she took the bull by the horn but on a second thought, she wondered why she didn’t recover all these years, she sighed deeply and ran her hand across her forehead acknowledging the fact that everything does happen for a reason, maybe if Charles and Rose had made sure she was taking her drugs and going for medical checkups, she would have gotten better all these while, she b
Brenda turned to her and shook her head “I am looking for nothing mother, I am rather looking for a person.”Melanie arched her brow dropping the napkin on a table “something like what?”“I overheard you talking to someone just before I knocked, where is the person? Who were you talking to?” She inquired looking really ready to ask more questions.Melanie took a quick glance around the house and chortled “you and I have been the only ones at home since you got back from school, your father isn’t back and who do you think would be in my room at this hour, come on… I am so sure you heard wrongly.”Brenda stared at her, she couldn’t understand it, something seemed off and unusual about her mother, though she couldn’t press her finger on what it was exactly but she was so sure that something wasn’t right “but who were you talking to mum?”She shook her head &ldqu
Carmella left the room angrily, she walked into her room and met Leonna cleaning it, she went straight to her and grabbed her by the hair "you little bitch, you really want to reap where you did not sow huh?"Leonna groaned in pain totally unaware of what Carmella was talking about "what have I done?" She cried out."You want to become queen huh? You want me to bow at your feet?" She yelled pushing her to the wall.Leonna hit her head on the wall turning around slowly with her forehead bleeding slightly, their were equally blood stains on the wall, she could feel heavy headache on her head too, Carmella cared less about that her bleeding forehead "it would be over my dead body that I would allow you marry Terry, listen to me, you won't and would never marry him, he belongs to me and me alone, I have always been the one he loved, not some low life like you" she said wagging her finger at her.She shook her head sadly, she just couldn't believe that all the yelling was just because of T
The day was gradually coming to an end, Terry retired to his room, he had actually started occupying Joshua's chambers, he had sent for Leonna who arrived few minutes later standing by the door."Come in and shut the door..." He said on seeing her.Leonna was scared, she just didn't want to come anywhere close to him, never have she imagined that Terry was evil but today she witnessed him treat a wolf who have loved him like a brother like an enemy and that was something she wouldn't forget in a hurry, she shut the door and stood by it with her hands properly folded."Please sit,I want us to talk" he said."I don't want to, whatever you want to say, please say it now, I was busy before you sent for me" she said looking away.Terry sighed walking closer to her, he knew that she was angry with him, he cleared his throat "we have always liked each other alot and because of the rules guarding the palace, we couldn't show our feelings properly nor have a good relationship, when I said that
"What... What did you just say Azora?" Zara asked standing to her feet.Azora laughed "you haven't told them yet? How you were so jealous of your kid sister cause she married the man of your dreams and you decided to end her life just to have him all to yourself yet it took you so many years to get married to him, did you also tell them how you asked me for powers to get rid of her when she found out that she was still alive, how you went to poison her but ended up poisoning yourself, how you went the second time but disgraced yourself and showed your real face cause you always take the form of her human husband's personal assistant's face? She never eloped with a human just like she always claims, Diana is a survival of attempted murder by her own sister! and did you also tell them that you have pushed her off the cliff the second time? poor girl.. I doubt if she would survive this time around.""I survived...." Diana said walking into the throne room, her hands were dripping of blo
By the time he got to the palace, what he saw was what he didn't expect, someone else was sitting on her mother's throne and Terry sitting on his, could this be a dream or what?" He thought "what are you doing Terry? Why are you sitting on my throne?" 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?" She yelled in anger."He has equal rights as your so called husband does and therefore deserves this throne better" Azora said with a proud smirk on her face.Joshua was shocked "and what is that supposed to mean? 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
Zara left her house at once without saying another word to Joshua, Leonna followed her at once,the king looked totally speechless, he turned to Diana "stay here, I would be right back."Diana shook her head in disapproval "I can't, I must go with you.""But it might be dangerous" he explained."I don't care, I am going with you" she said sadly grabbing his hand.The king sighed, it was truly obvious that he had no other choice but to allow her follow him just like she wants, few minutes after they left the palace, Joshua was feeling really pressed, so he asked Diana to wait for him under a tree while he goes to ease himself, while he was doing so Carmella crept from behind, she was actually on her way to her mother's house when she saw the king walking side by side with Diana holding her hands, he didn't notice her presence as he was backing her, Carmella grabbed a log of wood which was lying on the floor and hit it behind his head, Joshua fell on the floor and passed out at once, she
She arrived the palace and fear gripped everyone at once but before the guards in the palace could attack her, she bewitched them and made them bow at her feet while she grinned with so much delight feeling so fulfilled. Leonna was just done massaging Carmella's leg and had walked out of her room in tears when she noticed something awkward going on in front of the palace, she noticed a strange woman on a black rope chanting some words and making everyone bow at her feet, fear took grip of her and she fled at once to the back of the house running as fast as she could to inform the king of what was going on since she had seen him leave earlier and was so sure he had gone to see Diana and her mother.Carmella noticed a weird kind of silence and walked out of her room looking at each corner of the palace in fright, she could tell that something was wrong, she walked into the throne room and saw Azora standing there,she gasped and at the same time smiled walking majestically to stand in fr
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
Few hours later, they arrived the village and the palace in particular, the wedding ceremony have been conducted as people could be seen dancing and eating, Zara whose face was covered with sadness was about leaving the palace when she sighted Diana in the company of Terry, she gasped in shock “Diana!” She called out in a loud tone.That instant every where was silent, the music stopped, everyone turned around staring at Diana who looked totally confused, a palace guard ran into the palace building, the king, queen and Carmela were in the throne room when he came to inform them of the latest development, Carmella was the first to run out of the throne room to confirm what the guard had said, on stepping out she saw Diana standing beside Terry, it was obvious that he was the one that brought her back home “I knew it that he would do whatsoever it takes to ensure that my happiness is completely snatched away from me” she muttered feeling so upset, the queen and the king were soon outsid
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. The doctor smiled at her in response as they both stepped outside few minutes later to have a conversation after she was done checking on Brenda who was still very much asleep.Melanie cleared her voice “so when can we go home doctor?” She asked politely.“You’re free to go today, she’s okay, the least you can do is bring her twice ever
