Vivian POV

He strode in, walking past me towards my mother whose expression suddenly changed with glistening smiles. He bent down, took her hands and kissed it; a courtesy and introduction shown to elderly in-laws.

"Max Norman?" My Mom asked, her smiles brightening even more and Max nodded, suddenly acting like an innocent cute four year old baby.

"Yes Mom" He replied in a very demure polite tone that I didn't realize he had with him

"You're really handsome like they say" She complimented, shocking me even more. I didn't understand my Mom, although I know her as someone to be flexible most times, I still couldn't believe she would be this pleased to someone who she already knows wanted to divorce me; of course she knows! I told her! Then why was she acting so oblivious? Strange, entirely strange.

" Common, let's have a brief talk, can we?" My Mom suddenly chipped in and at that moment, I knew I couldn't just watch and do nothing. What is she doing?

    Vivian POV "Mom, what are you saying, I don't sleep around!" I almost screamed. I couldn't believe that what Max had been accusing me for over three years was beginning to seem like the truth. "I saw the pictures perhaps I don't have my phone any longer Vivian but it was you, laying on the bed in a five star hotel with a man old enough to be your father" My Mom said, throwing more light to my confusion. How could that be? I wasn't even the type of person that socialize with people that much so how could I suddenly sleep with someone I don't know. I turned to face Max" You have the pictures, don't you? Let me see it" I requested in a fierce demand but instead Max rolled his eyes at me, tugging his hands into his pockets and gave me a nonchalant stare. "There'll be no need for that Vivian. I don't have it and I didn't want to divorce you because of that, just bear that in mind" He answered curtly, flashing a smile at me then to my mother. "Why did you come back? You were goi

    Vivian POV I fluttered my eye lids open, taking in the hot sun that penetrated through the curtain as I quickly covered my eyes with my hands, preventing further burn from the sun but then I winced, feeling a stinging sharp pain pierce my arm; A drip was connected to it. "Thank Goodness you're awake, I'm saved" A strange unfamiliar yet familiar voice said as he walked towards me, putting on his expense white coat that made his profession stand out, I instantly recognized him as the doctor whom I had earlier rushed to seek answers the other day about who cleared for my surgery bills. "What happened Doctor Tim? Where's my my husband_ I mean Max and my Mom" I asked, not realizing when the words escaped my lips. I bit my lips in regret having revealed that piece of information because Doctor Tim might not really know that Max was my husband perhaps for the moment. "Your husband? You mean Max Norman? He almost turned down this whole hospital the moment you passed out, he almost boug

    Vivian POV "Vivian__" A familiar voice called behind me as I hurriedly hailed down a cab. I already knew it was Max but I ignored him, knowing fully well that he wouldn't let me go. "Where the hell are you going? You're not feeling__" Before he could even finish his statement, the car zoomed off immediately and I let out a long exhaustive breath. 'I just hope Doctor Tim wouldn't really reveal my baby to him or my mother' ______ It wasn't long before I arrived back at the mansion and just like I expected, Mr Norman was already dressed in his commanding attire. " You're one minute behind time dear" He said on sighting me as I walked towards where he stood, his back relaxed at the car. Taking a close look at him, I observed the similarities between him and Max; the same authoritative poise, deadly aura, dominating, and dangerous, even their features in some parts was slightly the same and I realized where Max got his muscles even when he didn't do much workout. "I'm sorry Fa

    Vivian POV As soon as we got into the building and stepped into the elevator, I marveled, especially at the extravagant beauty of the company, it was undoubtedly fabulous and mighty. The elevator was purely made of silver yet a transparent glass that show the full reception hall of the company where everyone walked to and fro with files all in their hand; truly, this wasn't a place of joke, the seriousness on everyone's face already told me that the company tolerated less of incompetence. "You must be wondering why I brought you here right?" Mr Norman said, jolting me out of my fantasizing reverie of the building. We were the only two people in the elevator and I wondered if the workers had suddenly disappeared by his presence. At least, I should see some people taking the elevator but I found none. I blinked twice, pressing my lips together and gave a curt nod at him. " I've heard a lot about you from Max" He stated, shifting his gaze towards me and I blinked again, fluttering

    Vivian POV Before I could even ask further questions, the door to the elevator opened and we stepped out. Raising my gaze to look up, I froze on the spot. A long table, containing at least twenty five men in suit sat around, each in their own prudence of power, some were tapping impatiently on the table while the rest had their feet stomping lightly on the stone- tiled floor, obviously displaying the delay in their patience. The vast screen- projector that was hung at the extreme of the wall added a more intense view of supremacy in the room and I realized that this wasn't just an ordinary conference. Perhaps, were they all shareholders in the company? They all stood up as soon as I and Mr Norman stepped in, he walked towards the other end of the table where there was two empty seats, one was the head seat and the other seemed like something a deputy would take. I followed closely behind him, titling my head down to avoid the gazes that already shot at me in a questionable mann

    Vivian POVThe financial account department manager walked in with his system, I was surprised, I wasn't expecting it to be such an old man, he seemed upright and oblivious to everything; and yes, I could easily tell through people's mind." Please have a seat" I said, pulling out the seat from where I sat earlier towards him, Mr Norman was stunned as well as everyone, only if they knew I was yet to begin."Stanley, do we also have a computer analyst in this company, someone that could break through servers?" I inquired again but before Stanley could reply, one of the men cut in."It's not needed, since the financial account manager is here, there'll be no need for a computer analyst because it's too risky for a third party to go through the company's vendetta"I smiled at his response, knowing fully well they were trying to hinder me from uncovering something."It's not a third party, I need one from the company itself perhaps, such a big enterprise does not have one?" I queried with

    Vivian~I walked towards where Chris stood and the laptop placed in front of the table as his hands worked magnificently on the keyboard."Let me have a look"I said and he instantly shifted the laptop towards me. I watched as the video displayed, everyone going on their usual business.Damn! I didn't find anything suspicious! Was my guts wrong this time? It has never been like this.I grabbed the laptop and zoomed in, this time around I blocked out anything that could serve as a distraction, only focusing intently on the video displaying and just then, I found out something; this was an edited video that was used as a replacement for the main video. It was either the CCTV was hacked or the edited video was wired to display for a particular day thereby replacing the real one from showing at the headquarters."Chris, hack into the hospital CCTV in France on 1st July" I ordered but just then, one of the men slammed his hands on the table."We will not accept this, as a shareholder in thi

    Vivian POV"Do you want to share?" I asked but she shook her head in denial, flashing a warning smile at me."No, not now Vee" She replied, her gaze shifted to her fingers as she fiddled with them. I studied her for a moment, realizing that all these while I had wished to be like Sofia had been a terrible wish because it wasn't actually well with her.Truly, Don't judge a book by its cover. Even as an established woman, a renowned lawyer in the city, Sofia still seemed like someone who was a shadow of herself but always put on a facade that made it look like everything was perfect for her."You know, I would press further if you don't feel okay telling me, I'll wait. I know you also have your reasons" I said in a reassuring tone, not wanting to make her feel bad."And lest I forget Sofia" I called and she turned to look at me again " You said something about my Mom and Mr Norman, can you tell me what it is, the relationship they hold and also how do you even know all these despite the

The cut in sharply before I could finish. "It's no coincidence in the same car, and to talk of the fact they were friends!" She continued."Have you asked your Mom if she's ever been in contact with Max's Father?" Sofia asked and in that moment, I feared that everything she was saying might actually turn out to be the truth."And why do you ask that?""Because your Mom knows a lot Vivian, I think

    VIVIAN POV"Daniel Browns?" I called in shock as I stared at the woman beside him none other than my best friend Sofia." Vivian?" Sofia called, shock evident in her face. So Sofia's secret husband all these while had been Daniel Browns? Was that why he seemed casual with me at the hospital? This was a devastating surprise indeed! Countless times, I had asked Sofia to reveal her husband maybe a picture would do but she was keen and Stern on showing his identity, saying that it was better left unknown to me and I wondered why she had said that."Daniel Browns is your husband? The hide and seek all these while is him Sofia?" I couldn't help but ask. She shrugged, pressing her lips thinly to each other as if suddenly wanting to hide."Wow Sofia! Just wow!" I exclaimed, shaking my head in light wonder."Vivian, I can explain okay. We should go over there and I'll tell you the reason" She said, her expression riling with guilt as she looked down, unable to meet my own gaze."What is there

"I have been too lenient on everyone, they won't know what hit them by the time I'm done" She muttered under her breath and sighed. A thought crossed her mind.

He had blatantly refused me, the Max who wouldn't bear to see me get hurt was slowly slipping away from my hands and I watched it happen.The sound of the cracking opening of the door jolted me up from my fleet of thoughts. Hannah came in and walked towards me with a smile." What news?" I questioned closely."Don't worry my dear, you'll soon have Max in your hands." She replied as she sat down on the bed." I do not trust your words lightly Hannah, it's either you help me have Max or I'll tell. You know my lips are always open" I said with a hinge of threat in my tone."Are you threatening me now Ruth? I am helping you and you should be grateful for it!" She barked back."Then be sure that help would come out positively, if not, I'll tell the world the truth about you and Daniel" I replied and leaned closer to her face " How would it feel when the world learns of your deceit?

    Vivian POVMax drove into the left corner of a road that seemed not so crowded with people and pulled to a stop.He brought out cell phone and dialed number "Frank, where are you? Trace my location right now and come down this instant" He ordered and cut off the line and immediately pushed the door open and came down to my side." Vivian, I would need you to go in there and wait" He said, pointing towards a luxury store at the end of the opposite road as he pulled open the car for me and I stepped down, my eyes filled with horror."What's going on Max?

Here Vivian, you're forgetting it already" He called behind me as he handed over the diamond Stoned necklace to me as we strode out of the hospital.
