MARRIED TO THE CONFUSED BILLIONAIRE 15. The Intruder
For that reason, our relations refused to accompany him to the girl's parents for proper marriage, as required by the native law and custom. Such legalization of marriage would have accorded him the ownership of the children.On the other hand, the girl's parents were not willing to welcome him either. The truth about the matter was that the parents of Chika, the mistress, had given her out in marriage to Mr. Eric Adibe, the son of Mr. Adibe her father’s bosom friend who was based in the United States of America. As at the time she moved into my father's house, it had been six years since Eric left. No one had neither seen him nor heard from him, and there were speculations that he had married a white lady, or he was dead. To cap it up, Chika had been an unhappy and a lonely lady. No man was willing to marry her, even though it was no secret that her husband, was nowhere to be found. Despite her beauty and age, she was very much willing to marry anyone who was willing to take her

“You did not tell me you were already in town when you called this morning. I told you I will get back to you. I never said you were welcomed to my house.”My husband remarked with disdain.“I came to town yesterday and went to your office. The gate man refused to let me in.”“Yesterday was Sunday. How do you expect that I should be at work?”Evans inquired, but, he ignored his question and continued with his explanation, without any iota of remorse."He said that if you were expecting me, you would have left instructions with him. Then, I hung around until he gave me your number and directed me on how to get to the quarters.” One would think that we owed him anything or that we had a good rapport. At that point, he looked like a fish deprived of water. The look on Evan’s face showed that he remembered vividly how he made life unbearable for us when we were about to get married. 'Should I ask him to go back?'He thought. Looking at the time, it was late for him to travel back to t

Mama shouted as she attempted to ask many questions at the same time. Now, we just realized that she was back, and were startled by her voice, so we rushed to the scene. Meanwhile, Evans and I were thinking of how to salvage the situation, but we were only trying to turn Mama into a killer with our sluggishness in acknowledging the degree of our mistakes.Now, Mama, who was too nervous and angry, began to yell abuses at him while Beck abused her too. In that game, one cannot compare Mama with Mr. Beck Aaron when it comes to the use of abusive and vulgar languages. He had been a troublemaker right from his mother’s womb. He talked and fought like a silly woman, and he became worst as he got older and dejected.“Are you the only one who is entitled to visit her? Is she not my daughter too? Did you buy her from the market?” Mr. Aaron asked simultaneously, not minding how she would feel. Now, he got off the bed and stood in a manner that said. 'If Mama felt like fighting him, he was u

He paused and looked at the gob smacked Mr. Aaron, hoping that he had anything to say, but he only gazed at him. Then he proceeded.“As for the issue of male or female children. I don't have any problem with that. Both genders are very useful to me.”Chief Phil Ikenna, Fredrick Ikenna's father, was a Business Icon and a Community Ruler in his place. A well-respected man who can buy Mr. Beck Aaron's entire life over and again said after listening to himChief Ikenna was the father of three children. His wife had delayed conception before conceiving after six years of marriage. The children were well-trained and lovely. He often advised them, especially the two sons, to marry a woman who they would love and respect, for those were the elements that sustained his marriage during their waiting days.The words of Fredrick's father humiliated Beck so much before his guests that he did not even dare to glimpse at him.Now, Uju, who was already tearing up due to her father's shameless hate sp

While in the kitchen, she lit the gas cooker and got the frying pan, emptied the three liters of vegetable oil into it and allowed it to heat. While she watched the oil heat up, she muttered.'I have endured enough, Mr. Beck Aaron, it is time for you to endure too.’When the vegetable oil was hot to her satisfaction, she carried it gently with a pad and headed towards the guest room. Then, she pushed the door gently with her elbow and tiptoed into the room. Although, the lights were off, but she could see her prey on the bed with the rays of the light from the security lights outside. Then, she walked on. For the first time, she hated the size of the room because she needed to take a good number of steps before she could get to the bed. Now, the heat from the oil was not helping matters, either. She was worried that the oil may get cold, or the heat reduced, thereby not allowing her to achieve her aim. Meanwhile, Beck had stopped snoring. Mama also stopped suddenly and observed her

Although, all his family members were entitled to medical care, but the General Manager revoked that privilege. As the Medical Director, he could take the initiative to treat the patients there and wait for the reaction of Mr. Angus, but he chose not to create more problems for Mr. Owens.Meanwhile, Dr. Dixon had a private hospital and when he got a distressed call from Evans, he went along with an ambulance and that eased the trouble of transporting the victims. Then, Mr. Beck and Sarah were taken to the Intensive Care Unit of the Promise Land Clinic. On entering the hospital, the atmosphere changed. The staff on duty were all shocked to behold the face of Beck, but the only person who was composed was his assistant, whom he went to the house with. Then, some workers thought that Beck was dead because his face was beyond recognition. The flesh had shrank and the blisters were broken on their own, and his breathing was shallow. After their admission, Evans, who had accompanied them t

Now, George's and Lilian's response with wide smiles on their faces, brought a great relief to Frank The youngsters were aware that with him around, there would not be any dull moment for them. On Sarah and her husband's return, they had to announce the doctor's suggestions. Therefore, while they were at the dining table, Sarah quickly reported.“The doctor suggested that papa should be flown to India for a surgery as soon as possible.”“Ind…what? Do you mean the India that is in his village?”Ada asked sarcastically, “Ind… Village. Yes, the India that is in his village. If he must be flown to India, he should provide the money, period.”Uju suggested with finality.“In my opinion, if the money is there, we should give it a try. I am not convinced that sending him abroad will be too much on all of us. In my opinion, we should not be responsible for his death. No matter what, he is your father. We can't fold our hands and do nothing.”Now, Mama's words made them to view the matter f

Nevertheless, Sarah was resting at home with her family the next day, and Mrs. Eze was the last person she had hoped to see. Sarah had never visited her house, and she had carefully avoided anything that would bring her to her house either. When she returned from the hospital the previous day, her staff members had visited and encouraged her. They saw her sisters and commented on their semblance, and they were careful not to ask too many questions about her father and she liked it so, but to her surprise, Mrs. Eze was not in the team because she would like to visit her personally.Now, the much dreaded staff member showed up, and she was lost of what to do. “She did not ask me to have the problem that would bring her to my house.”Sarah mumbled. Having kept her away on many occasions with the excuse that she would not be at home. That day, she was aware that Sarah was ill and must be at home. Furthermore, She was aware that her father was at the hospital on admission and above all, t
