“I can’t believe you’re sitting here comfortably, spilling in my face that Alex went on a date with another man?!” Mateo’s deep voice sounded on the balcony as he looked at his son who was sitting opposite him, drinking his wine slowly.

“What do you want me to do, father? She is a grown up, she has the right to make her own decisions. And I can see that she has chosen who she wants to be with, '' he sounded angrily and let out a sigh.

“No, this is hard to believe. Now, you’re letting her walk away from your life so freely?” Mateo asked in dismay.

He kept silent and gulped his drink angrily.

“Father, Alex has made her choice. I’m not the right man for her! I’m not perfect, I’m still insecure, and I guess she found someone who treats her right, someone who treats her better than I do. So, I figured out, it’s time we go our separate ways. She will bear the baby for me and leave afterwards,” he said angrily.

“And why are you in pain? I thought you never loved her?” Mateo asked as he

    Their pants could be heard as they both pulled away from each other with the duvet shielding their unclad bodies. “I’ve missed you so much,” he cried as he cuddled her in his arms “I missed you too,” she said with a smile as she caressed his bare chest with her fingers. “I’m..I’m so sorry for everything. I know I've said this countless times, but I’m truly deeply sorry,” he apologized as he looked into her face. “I’m sorry for giving you rooms for suspicion and for sleeping here at the guestroom. I was just overwhelmed and I felt really hurt about everything. I just needed a moment to myself,” she related sadly. He tightened his arms around her and kissed her forehead. “I just don’t know why I can’t take it. Seeing you around some other guy irritates me,” he confessed and she chuckled. “Or, maybe someone’s about to fall,” she said with a chuckle as she raised her head to his face. He laughed and caressed her arms. “ I’m starting to,” he said and her smile broadened. “What’s th

    Afrobeats music could be heard in the club as they both stepped in, with all eyes turned in their direction. Dressed in a long red sleeveless gown, she was looking beautiful that night with her face wearing light makeup and her long artificial hair falling on her shoulders. Beside her was Adrian who was donned in a black tuxedo and oxford shoes. The club light reflected on their faces as they walked to the large table where they could see Madison and the guys who were all seated. She caught sight of them and rushed towards them Immediately.

    With her hand holding her dress, she hurried down the stairs as her eyes stared at the men standing in the living room. “Alex,” Amos called anxiously as he saw her walk into the living room. “Where is your husband? Is he on his way already?” Ben asked as he walked towards her. “He’s on his way. He will be here in no time,” she said as she helped herself to the couch. She shut her eyes as she felt the pains again and the men gathered around her. “Alex, are you okay?” Derrick asked and she nodded. “Where are your maids? Someone is supposed to be looking after you,” Amos said with concern. “I’m..I’m fine,” she muttered. Not long, the door opened and Adrian stormed into the house with his men. "Honey.. honey!!" He called as he rushed into the house to find Alex sobbing with the men beside her. They all stood up as soon as they saw him. "Greetings, Mr Steel, " They greeted. "Amos,.. um..

    He stood in the living room pacing with one hand on his waist. Just then, he heard her footsteps from the stairs and he rushed over to the stairs immediately. “The baby’s coming!” She cried and he froze for a moment. “No..no..no..this is not happening! God, why?!” He asked. “Come over here and help me down!” She barked as she threw a big bag down the stairs. “Oh.. God.. why do I have to be the one to suffer for her pains,” he cried as he rushed up the stairs. He tried to lift her up but she hit his head violently. “Help me walk, not carry me!” She yelled. “Okay..okay..sorry,” he muttered as he held her arms and led her down the stairs slowly. “Get Sam. Tell him to get the car ready,” she said as she breathed in and out. “Who..who is Sam?” He asked as he looked up at her face. “He is the driver, for Christ's sake!” She yelled in his face and he dashed out Immediately while she moved over to the couch. She was in labor already and she needed to keep control of her emotions, sh

    He stayed beside her as she was rolled into the private ward and placed on the bed. Beside the bed was a cradle where baby Junior was sleeping peacefully. The maids were present in the room along with Amos who was sitting at an armchair opposite the bed. “He’s so handsome and took after his father,” Vivian said with a smile and Alex laughed. “Yes, my blood is stronger,” Adrian said and they all laughed. He turned to Amos who was watching them with a smile on his face. “Um, have you heard from Jason and the others?” He asked. He cleared his throat and stood up. “He called. They’re on their way to get Emilia. She happened to be the reason for the attack and I want to accompany them so we can apprehend her,” he related. “Oh, this is crazy. I can’t believe this is happening right now,” Alex said anxiously. “I will call to check on you guys later and also on Mr Thompson,” Adrian said. “Thanks a lot,” Amos said. “No, we should be thanking you. You were Alex’s hero today,” he said a

    The cry of baby Junior could be heard all over the room as he walked in. Donned in a black fitted suit, he stopped for a moment and a warm smile appeared on his face while staring at his wife and mother in-law who were attending to the baby. She frowned as she saw him smiling and he laughed. “You better come over here to make him stop crying,” she said with a frown. “Oh little baby, why are you crying? Daddy is coming,” he sang as he stepped towards the bed slowly. The baby stopped crying for a while and they all looked at each other in surprise. “He really recognizes his father’s voice,” Mrs Bimpe said with a smile. “That’s my boy,” he said as he lifted the baby up from the bed. “Where have you been?” She asked as she sighed heavily. He smiled and handed the baby over to Mrs Bimpe. “I went to pick up someone from the airport,” he said and she pulled a surprised face. “Who?” She asked. “She’s here to see you,” he said. She gave him a surprised look and he pulled her up slo

    The cars stopped in front of the dilapidated four storey building. The door opened and he stepped out of the car wearing his sunglasses. He took off his sunglasses and scanned his eyes around the neighborhood where a few people could be seen carrying out their daily activities. He looked up at the roof of the building with his palm shielding his eyes from the burning sun. He let out a sigh and turned to the men who were standing beside him. “Um, I’ll go up there alone. Just be on alert in case anything should go wrong,” he said and they all nodded. He wore his sunglasses and proceeded to the stairs of the building. He could feel his heart racing fast as he climbed up the old dirty stairs which seemed to be out of use for ages. He wondered what she would be doing in such a place. The thought of seeing her again frightened him and he took a deep breath as he finally reached the rooftop. The strong breeze blew across his face as he reached the top where he could catch a perfect view o

    She sat before the mirror shelf as her hair was beautifully wrapped by Maiden who was standing behind her. Donned in a white cotton robe, she was looking so dazzling that night with her face glowing with expensive makeup. Her father in-law had thrown a party at the mansion to celebrate the arrival of baby Junior. Her friends and family were all present and her joy knew no bounds. “The most beautiful mama in the world right now,” Maiden teased and they both laughed. “Stop teasing me. Where is Bisi?” She asked. “She went out with the girls to welcome the guests. Who knows if they would find a rich handsome dude for themselves tonight,” she said with a scoff and they both laughed again. “Adrian has no friends. Only some of his business partners will be here. Everywhere is going to be filled with Mateo’s friends,'' she said with a smile. “That’s true,” Maiden acknowledged. Just then, the door opened and Natasha walked into the room. She was beautifully dressed in a long black fishne

    They broke free from the hug as they heard Adrian clearing his throat behind them."You just can't be patient," Alex said with a chuckle and they all laughed."I didn't stay all that long without you just for you to return and keep me waiting to have you," he said as he pulled her forcefully to himself. She landed on his chest and they all laughed."Maria, I want to say thank you once again. As long as I would want you to stay, I still cannot force you against your decision to go in search of Elena's father. But I want you to know that, if you ever need anything, we are just only a call away. We are your family," he said with all sincerity.She smiled broadly and nodded."Thank you," she muttered."Now go back inside and party," Alex urged."While I take this beautiful woman of mine inside," he said as he carried her up in a bridal style."Inside of where? Stop!" Alex cried as she banged his chest."Shh, we will go through the back door so you don't get disturbed again," he said and s

Mrs Bimpe cried as she and her husband locked her tightly in a warm embrace."I'm so sorry mom, I'm so sorry for not reaching out to you," she cried."Your mother almost passed away. You could have reached out!" Her father cried loudly."It's enough, father, all that matters is that she is alive. Safe and a little bit healthy," Maiden said with a smile from where she stood before them."Yes, my daughter is alive," Mrs Bimpe cried again."I'm glad we didn't conduct a burial for you. Adrian wouldn't let us conduct a burial ceremony because he believed you will one day come back to him," her father contin

    There was tension in court as the two women were dragged to the accused box where they both stood giving mean stares to each other. The courtroom was filled to the brim. Members of the press were also present to cover the event. The case happened to be one of the most discussed cases in the whole of the country as everyone was eagerly waiting to see the outcome of these vicious women who became internet sensations after their arrests concerning the murder of Alex Steel. In the audience were Natasha, Adrian and their friends who were all seated at the front row. The charges were read and the defense and prosecution lawyers swung into action as they defended their clients logically. "My lord, I've pleaded guilty. All I'm asking is for this bitch to be arrested alongside me. She committed the crime together with me and she shouldn't be exonerated!" Barbara fumed with her mean eyes tearing through Amelia. "Shut up, you bastard! You're only trying to drag me into the mess you created. H

    The Land cruiser jeep could be seen slowing down as it moved along the untarred road which was covered with portholes. From the black Acura where they leaned, they could see the Land cruiser approaching and they both stood up right with their hands in their pockets as they stood gallantly waiting for the car to stop. The car stopped a few meters away from them. The door opened and Amelia stepped out of the car, dressed gallantly in black biker jacket and jeans. She took off her dark glasses as she walked towards the women who were waiting impatiently for her. "Oh, such a lovely wonderful morning. It's not even up to seven o'clock yet. Are we good?" She asked as opened her arms wide with a smirk appearing on her face. "What did you do?" Barbara asked as she gave her a mean look. "What did I do? I saw your pictures all over the internet last night. I should be asking you, what did you do?" She asked with a smirk as she brought out a stick of cigarette which she placed in between he

    Police sirens could be heard as the vehicles sped into the mansion which was all lit up that night. He jumped out of the car as soon as it came to a halt and the heavily armed policemen could be seen running behind him as they all stormed into the building. His heavy breathing could be heard as he burst through the door which was left unlocked. "Search around the rooms down here, I will go upstairs with the rest of the men," he ordered as he proceeded to the stairs with some of the men marching behind him. His heart began to race as he stepped into the master bedroom and found the whole place empty. He let out a sigh of frustration and stormed out of the room angrily. He could see some of the policemen walking towards him from the other side of the passage. "All clear," the officers reported. "Fuck!" He cursed as he hurried down the stairs with the men. "Mr Steel, I'm afraid, they've escaped," the officer in charge revealed and his face pulled into a frown. "With my last breat

    Looking outside the car window, she could see her walking to the car, dressed smartly in a navy blue kimono dress and black heels. The door opened and she stepped into the car with the door shutting behind her. The window glass rolled up and she took off her sunglasses and heaved a sigh. "What is the reason you called me here?" She asked as she watched her take off her glasses. "My sister is plotting to kill you," she spilled with her eyes looking forward. Silence fell in for a moment and her brows gathered deeply as she stared at the side of her face. "And why are you telling me this?" She asked thoughtfully. "Because I don't want it to get bloody any more. Enough of the killings. I didn't come all the way here from Mexico to spill blood. I need you to be careful," she warned in a low tone. She kept silent and heaved a sigh as she looked away from her face. "I know she will try to prove smart again. She loves proving to be the smart one," she said with a smirk as she let out a

    With the heavy breeze blowing across his face, he walked along the sandy shore, barefooted with his eyes fixed on the water where he could see several boats and fishermen mending their nets. "Baby J, we are here," he said as he kissed the baby's cheek and dropped him on the sand. He chuckled as he watched Junior play excitedly on the sand while making squeaky sounds followed by giggles. He heaved a sigh and unbuttoned the first two buttons of his blue vintage short sleeve shirt as he sat on the sand, staring into the water. "Come over here, J," he called as he pulled the baby to himself and made him sit in between his legs. They both stayed that way, staring into the water as people walked past them. "I've always believed that one day, the water will bring your mommy back to me," he said with a chuckle. "I still have that hope. Alex will come back to me," he said as his eyes began to well up with tears. ** Settled in a boat far at a distance from the shore where he sat, she re

    She hurried out of the passage and climbed onto the balcony where she stood, pacing around. She could have been caught by Amelia, thank God for the tea story, she thought as she gave a sigh. She reached for her phone and looked around carefully before dialing the number. "Alex, it's Nat. I found a drawer which is tightly locked and I can't find the key to it. I have a strong feeling that what we are looking for is right in there," she said in whispers. "Did you search all the nooks and crannies?" She asked from the phone. "Yes I did and she almost bumped into me in the act," she related anxiously. "Search her bags, her personal bag. The one she moves with often. It's got to be in there," she assured. "Um, okay," she muttered uneasily. "Nat, you need to be fast. Since she almost caught you in the act there is no way she won't have her suspicions. You need to act quickly to lay your hand on that envelope before she moves it out of its place," she said. "Um..I'm thinking of a way t

    PRESENT "That is the story of how I survived. And right now, Maria and I are making plans on how to get back at those people. I need to make them suffer and pay dearly for all they did to me. That's the reason I reached out to Natasha. I believe she will be able to help us out," she related as she sniffed and wiped the tears that trickled down her cheek. "I'm glad you reached out to me too, I've been wearing myself out, mourning you day and night," Madison said with empathy. "I'm sorry I had to stay hidden for so long. It took me months to be healed from the traumas of that horrible night. It took me a lot to recover fully," she explained. "I get it perfectly, Alex. And I promise you will get justice. Right now, we need to do all we can to protect Junior," she said. "Junior will be fine. Barbara would never come near him," Maria assured. "But how did you do it, I mean, how did you both brainwash that little girl into believing Barbara was her mother and Adrian her father?" Madiso
