Gemita slowly raised her hand to her head, holding it in an attempt to steady the pounding. It felt like a bomb had gone off inside it and it was so damn heavy, hurting like hell. She groaned, gently opening her eyes. “Damn you Cognac." She cursed under her breath. She finally raised herself up after much struggle and realized she's completely naked. That's when memories of what happened earlier popped into her head and she immediately turned to the other side of the bed but didn't see Joel there. She sighed, getting down from the bed and walking towards the mirror. Her breasts were still red and her nipples swollen from all the sucking. “Bastard couldn't even stay till my wake." She scoffed, rolling her eyes. She walked out of the room still butt naked, heading towards the dinning room to grab a cold drink when she heard a male voice coming from the living room. “Huh?" Gemita muttered feeling a bit perplexed. The voice sounded like that of Joel and she thought he had left. She imme
Charles gulped down the second glass of tequila, staring at the test results in disbelief. He has been drinking for three days straight since Yasmine last paid him a visit with this news. This was indeed a bombshell. The least of what he had expected to happen.How can he suddenly be a father? He hasn't thought about settling down yet and now this? It's obvious Yasmine is keeping the baby or she would have gotten rid of it since. What does he even know about parenting? Yes he's a gentleman and all that but he knows nothing about raising a kid. “Sucks to be you Freeman." He chuckled, filling the shot glass again before gulping it down. Is drinking really the solution? It won't take away the fact that Yasmine is carrying his child. This news has just shattered all hopes of being with Chloe. He thought Harry was his only worry because he had assumed Harry had interest in her as well but now, it's hopeless. She'll never accept to be with him knowing that her friend is pregnant with his ch
Gemila opened the door reluctantly as she wasn't looking forward to anything right now. It's obviously going to be the same thing, Yasmine snubbing her all day and now it's going to be unbearable with her staying at home all day tomorrow. She can't take this anymore, she can't keep watching her friend look so miserable and what's worst? She's fucking pregnant! Gemila grabbed the door knob again pulling the door close. She turned around and headed for the streets. She had parked her car across the road so she had to go get it. She will drive straight to Charles home and talk sense into him. The moment she strapped her seatbelt on, she started the engine, driving off immediately. When she came across the traffic light which was already signalling stop, she pulled over and that's when it hit her that she doesn't know his house. She's only been to Harry's house not Charles. “Damnit!" She hit her hand on the steering wheel. How could she not have remembered that before now? So where exac
Gemila shut the door close, a smile plastered on her face. She had spent the night talking with Mia and she's a fun person. She ended up sleeping at the hospital and after making sure the surgery had been set for today, she left Mia and decided to come home. She would have stayed at the hospital with her since she had noticed else to do but she still needs to care for Yasmine. Even though she's still not talking to her much, she still needs to be around just incase anything goes wrong.She paused by the stair case when she heard voices coming from the ground floor guest room. She immediately headed there only to find Yasmine on the bed and doctor Stewart was having a chat with her. Did something happen while she was gone?“Doctor Stewart? What happened? Yasmine are you okay?" Gemila panicked immediately, rushing to her side. Yasmine rolled her eyes, focusing her attention at the window.“Where were you last night? I thought I told you to keep an eye on her?" Stewart asked. He had a sc
Gemila handed the cup of tea to Yasmine as she was beginning to feel a bit cold. She sat on the chair next to her, watching her sip from the cup. Yasmine smiled as the hot water touch her tongue. Just what she needed to calm her nerves and warm up her insides.“Feel better?" Gemila asked with a slight smile. She could already see the satisfied expression on Yasmine's face. Yasmine looked up from the cup at Gemila and bounced her head.“Thank you." She muttered, sipping from the cup again.“Yasmine I really don't like the fact that we've been arguing a lot these days. I'm really sorry for leaving you alone last night and I assure you it wasn't to go to a strip club, I just some how ended up there and there was a young lady I had to help. I would never want anything bad to happen to you or your baby." Gemila rushed her words. She didn't want Yasmine to interrupt her again over a misinterpreted word.“I'm sorry too. I haven't been making things easy for you." Yasmine muttered.Gemila smi
Nicole exhaled before stepping into the building. She knew she was taking a big risk but she had to try, one last time. She can't just betrayal Harry like this, not after he took care of her for two years until he eventually left the mafia. He thought her everything she knows now about survival, she isn't as perfect as him but she can defend herself when necessary. The only reason she has let herself be taken by Linus men is because he had threatened her with Harry while he was at the hospital. If they were to come at her unannounced, she is sure she would beat the crap out of them.“Goodmorning ma'am." The lady at the front desk greeted on seeing Nicole.“Is Harry in?" Nicole asked, snubbing her greeting as usual.“Yes ma'am he just arrived." The lady replied, trying to keep her cool. She hates Nicole but the fact that Nicole is friends with the boss, she's trying her best to stay calm to avoid getting into trouble.“Good." Nicole said plainly, walking straight for the elevator. She s
Nicole yanked her hand off Harry's hold, glaring at him. This is the second time he's embarrassing her. Why would he be defending such a low life?Harry didn't say a word, he simply turned to Gemila, taking the coffee from her hand and returning back to his desk. Gemila bowed her hand slightly and made to leave but Nicole pulled her back.“You have not seen the last of me you little witch." Nicole hissed.“Is that a threat? Because so far someone has been trying to hurt me and if I report this to the corps, you could be arrested as a suspect." Gemila said with a straight face. She's not scared of this woman, why should she be? Wether or not she has something going on with Harry, it gives her no right to maltreat her in any form and she wouldn't think twice about fighting back if that should come to the case.“Nicole it's time for you to leave." Harry's hoarse voice echoed in the office and they both faced him. Gemila in shock and Nicole in anger.“Are you sending me away because of th
That single out of hers was enough to break Harry's walls. The moment she brought out her now wet buttom lip, Harry lost it. He began closing the space between them but Gemila kept taking steps backwards until her back hit the door. Harry placed his hand on the door knob, his eyes were on her as he searched for the key and finally turned it twice, locking the door.Gemila looked up at him immediately with a slight frown.“What are you doing?" She asked even though she knew exactly what he wants to do. A part of her was excited while the other was extremely confused. He made it clear the other night that it's just sex, why would he want to do it again? Does he think she's a cheap whore or something? No, she won't give that easily.Harry's eyes lingered on her cleavage. Their closeness now made him about to see them as he is taller than herself so it's giving him the upper view of her body. He slowly raised his hand to her shoulder, placing them on the red jacket she's wearing. He was
“Is she ever going to wake up?" Yasmine asked worriedly.“She's not dead, just asleep." Gemita chuckled as they watched Gemila's sleeping face.She finally stirred, a frown on her face as she held her head.“She's finally waking up." Yasmine sighed.Gemila groaned as she held her head. It felt so heavy and ached really bad.“Make it stop." She groaned holding her head.“Does your head hurt?" Gemita asked placing a hand on her head.“Make it stop." Gemila repeated. “I'll go make her tea or coffee." Gemita said and left the room immediately.Yasmine kept watching her until she finally opened her eyes.Gemila kept her eyes open as her vision was blurry at first. Soon it began clearing up and she saw Yasmine's smiling face.“How do you feel?" Yasmine asked with a smile.“Like my head is about to explode." Gemila groaned and began scrutinizing her environment. She furrowed her brows as she couldn't recognize the room. “Where am I?" She asked with a frown.“Your room of course." Yasmine s
Charles swiftly parked infront of the building, coming out immediately to open the door for his wife Yasmine.Yasmine smiled lovingly at him as she alighted the vehicle, placing a hand on her baby bump.The backdoor opened and a ten year old Lucas ran out of the car straight to the front door of the building.“Lucas slow down or you might fall!" Yasmine called out but Lucas didn't stop until he got to the door, ringing the doorbell severally.“That kid would be the death of me." Yasmine chuckled as they both walked to the front door.The moment the door creaked open, Lucas smiled brightly before jumping into Gemila's arms.“Aunt Mila!" He exclaimed, hugging her tight.“Lucas! Oh good heavens how you've grown." Gemila smiled brightly, hugging him tight. They finally broke the hug and her gaze fell on the couple behind Lucas.“Yasmine." Gemila smiled as she hugged Yasmine gently though because of her big bump.“Oh how I've missed you." Yasmine smiled before breaking the hug.“Nice seein
It's been three weeks now and Charles is finally getting discharged. Yasmine had left the hospital to get the baby stroller Gemila had bought months ago when they went baby shopping. She returned to the hospital to meet Charles at the waiting room. “Hey." She smiled brightly as she walked closer to him, placing a soft kiss on his cheek.“I'm guessing that's for Lucas." Charles smiled as he looked at the stroller.“Is there any other baby you have that I don't know of?" Yasmine asked jokingly and they both laughed.The nurse finally brought Lucas, perfectly healthy now to his parents. Yasmine smiled brightly as she carried her baby for the first time since she woke up from her coma.Her eyes became wet and this time she allowed the tears flow freely.“Hey there little guy. I'm your mummy." She sniffed. She raised her head to look at Charles and he had that same bright smile.“Let's go home." Charles said and Yasmine bounced her head before placing Lucas in the stroller.“I wish Gemila
Gemila smiled the moment she entered their living room. It was very spacious, just the way she liked it and the walls were painted white, making it look like some heavenly home. The white sofas adorned the area along with the beautiful glass center table and the white flower vest housing beautiful rose flowers.She diverted her gaze to the artistic paintings on the wall and a smile plastered on her face. This house is even more beautiful than that of New York that got burnt down.“Where is father?" Gemita suddenly asked, bringing Gemila's attention to the present.“He is napping. Should I get you something to eat or drink?" Madam Frida asked.“Sisy would you like anything?" Gemita asked Gemila.“No, I'm fine. I just can't wait to meet dad." Gemila smiled and Gemita faced Joel.“What about you honey?" She asked him and Joel smiled lovingly at her.“Yes, I'll have any cold beverage." He said and Madam Frida bounced her head before leaving them.“She's a really nice lady." Gemila compli
Gemila zipped her box after packing few clothes she'll be needing. She sighed as she looked around her room. A lot has happened within this past months and she's happy things are finally getting better.“Gemila are you done?" Gemita called from downstairs.“Yes I'm coming down now." Gemila replied and carried her box out of the room. Gemita was waiting with Joel.“Alright let's hit the road." Gemita said with a smile and they all left the house to the hospital. Gemila wanted to say her goodbyes to Yasmine first before leaving.“I'm really going to miss this city." Gemita chuckled.“You can always come visit, its not like you're leaving forever." Gemila said with a smile.They got to the hospital and Gemila and Gemita went in since Joel decided to wait for them in the car.Yasmine was already out of bed when they got to her room.“Where did she go?" Gemila frowned and immediately went to the nurse to ask for Yasmine's whereabouts.“Oh, miss Lopez went to see her baby." The nurse replie
They immediately took him back to their suite, tying him to a chair.Zina brought out her gun, strapping it behind her just incase he tries anything funny while Cheng packed up their stuff. There wasn't any need staying since they had already accomplished what they came here for.“How said that our honeymoon got caught short." Cheng chuckled before standing up with the bag.“We can always go on a vacation next time." Zina smiled facing Linus.“You have been pretty busy this year Linus. What's your last name anyways?" Zina asked but Linus didn't say anything.“What? You're not going to talk? It's over already. All your men are in prison and so will you the moment we leave this place so I suggest you start talking." Zina said with a frown but Linus still kept quiet. He was actually secretly trying to free himself with a little razor. He was slowly cutting the rope from behind.“He's gonna talk one way or the other. Let's get out of here." Cheng said bringing out the handcuffs to cuff L
The moment the elevator doors opened, a scowl plastered on Zina's face. There were so many rooms in the neverending hallway.“How on earth are we supposed to find him in this place?" Zina asked still carrying the scowl on her face.“Do you think I brought us here to fail? All we need to do is plant cameras in every hallway and monitor it to see which room he's staying at." Cheng replied with a smile, stretching his arm for Zina.“How smart of you." Zina smiled taking his hand and led her out of the elevator and into the hallways to search for their room. They finally found it and settled in, awaiting nightfall....Gemila sighed as she walked into the court building again for Harry's second trial. She wanted to skip it as she didn't want to hear more of his crimes but she had no choice than to go as she still needed to pled to the judge to let the company stay open.“Here goes nothing." She muttered before opening the double doors, revealing the court room. As usual it was already
Zina chuckled as she watched the security footage being shown to her by detective Cheng. It was a footage of Linus checking into a private hotel.“I don't get it. Why would he check into a hotel knowing fully well that we are after him?" Zina asked with furrowed brows.“I guess he had no other choice. After all we did capture all his clan members plus he's injured. Going to a hospital for treatment wasn't an option for him." Cheng said as he covered the laptop.“So what now? Do we get a SWART team or something?" Zina asked impatiently.“We would do that but we first need to confirm if this is a trap. We'll go in alone." Cheng said with a smile.“It's a private hotel. Do you think they'll let two police detectives in?" Zina frowned.“Who said anything about going in as police officers?" Cheng winked at her but Zina was still confused. “Can you please enlighten me on the plan?" She asked with a slight frown.“We call the swart team to stand by and then we go in as couples checking in.
Gemila reluctantly got out of the car and entered into the building. Others may call her crazy and maybe they are right. She's indeed crazy. Falling for him was her first mistake and now she's trying to save his company. Love does make people do stupid things.“Good day ma'am." One of the prison guards greeted the moment she entered the building. He had a name tag like everyone else so it wasn't necessary to ask for his name.“Good day Louis, I'm here to see a prisoner." Gemila said politely.“Everyone comes here to see the prisoners." Louis chuckled, removing his hat.“Whom might that be?" “Harry Robinson." Gemila replied immediately. The man furrowed his brows at her but still ordered another guard to take her to Harry. “Follow me ma'am." The second guard with a name tag Donk said to her as he led her to Harry's prison. Gemila felt uneasy as they went further into the passage. Several prison bars could be seen, each housing one or two prisoner. She tried her best to avoid eye c
