Ellis arrived home, his mood was scary and his eyes were red. He gave out a cold aura and when Leah saw him, she knew something had gone wrong, somewhere. "Are you alright, Ellis!" Leah asked, coming over and placing her hands on his shoulders. She turned him to glare at her and stared into his eyes. "What's the matter, Ellis? You can talk to me, I am here to listen" Leah said, caressing her husband's face, trying to calm his tense mood. Ellis just stared at Leah. She could act so well. He didn't know he had married and lived with a drama queen all these years. She chose to be mean and evil towards her own son and in extension to Pamela. Directly or indirectly, he is just realising that she's a terrible mother and unfilial friend. If what he heard about his wife came from an opponent,a rival, he would contend with such a one and sue him for defamation. But it's Romeo. Louis' own assistant. He even assured him that he could investigate and asked his wife
Clarion's eyes went moist but she held back her tears. Tarvan's disrespect for her has gone wild. It's a matter of minutes and the entire Middletown City would know that the King humiliated the queen. "Grand nanny. I don't know what to do again. Tarvan Johnson is different from the man I used to know. He is different, he wanted an heir but had always been silent as if he didn't care about my inability to have another conception after Alice. I worked hard and because I knew a day would come when he would want an heir,I went after Alice's daughter and brought her home. I feel she would take the place of Alice in our hearts. She looked very much like her mother, Alice Johnson of the past. I was glad when he inculcated her into the royal family. But I was wrong. Only I love Pamela, Tarvan never did. He was putting up a pretence, waiting for the day of his coronation where he can take more wives. He called me barren, grand nanny, Tarvan called me so. He said I
Hadn't she bargained for what she cannot buy? She had bitten more than she could chew. She glared at Miranda Alvan,this woman had possessed Louis. Leah was furious and wanted to slap Miranda Alvan but the latter intercepted her hand and held it tight in mid air. She bent her hand backwards suddenly and yelled into her ears "what were you thinking, are you crazy or you are being stupid?" She threw her hand off violently and Leah almost tripped over for lack of balance. Her hand pained her and she glared at Miranda Alvan in dismay. "Don't ever think of raising your hand on me next time. Because if you do,I will break your bones. I will pretend that you didn't come here and didn't talk nonsense. If you turn around and leave. But if you try to ruin my relationship with your son, I will destroy you and turn Louis into a complete maniac. He will deteriorate and make him end up in a mental asylum. I won't have him and you won't either. He will become useless
Miranda Alvan couldn't help but wear a broad smile. To hide her excitement,she crashed into Louis' chest and buried her head there. So this is how to deal with terrible women like Leah Hayden. This is sweet. She willingly agreed to her accusations simply because she is trying to protect her son from going mad. This sweetens her belly. Yeah, this is what she wanted. Leah Hayden is now at her call and beckon. She's now the one to decide whatever happens on the deal. She's taking the shot now and she's in charge of the wheel. Wherever she drives Leah Hayden towards, she would simply follow and nod sheepishly. "How can you not think about my happiness mom? You want to separate me from the woman that I love. If Miranda hadn't held on, what would have been the case now? Please stop it. Henceforth I don't want you anywhere close to my pregnant fiance before and after the child is born. Stay away from us" Louis declared. "Louis, she said she would hurt my bab
His eyes, welled up in tears. He appeared normal like he used to be. His long sleeve shirt had been folded up to his elbow. The tuck of his shirt had been removed and his belt was unbuckled. His hair was rough,a typical difference to the well treated,combed into style type of hair he used to wear. Ellis, Romeo and the doctor looked in the direction of the lounge where Louis stood, at its doorway. His tall handsome figure was still intact but everything else was out of place. At that moment, the doctor regretted his actions. He shouldn't have accepted Miranda Alvan's bargain. He shouldn't have reduced such a charming man to what he is at the moment. Louis Hayden is a great guy. Loved and admired by many. Cute and handsome, charming and the desire of many women. But the fellow standing at the doorway doesn't look anything like him besides the similarities in facial expression. He is a shadow of his former self. "No, you are not. You can never depreciat
At lunch, Romeo made it a time with Pamela as he promised. He arrived at the restaurant and saw Pamela seated at the extreme end, waiting for him. She smiled when she saw Romeo. She beckoned to him to walk over and he did, taking his seat before her. "Thank you for honouring my invitation" Pamela appreciated, the waiter came and they made their orders. When they've eaten and filled, Pamela began: "I am really worried about my fiance, Romeo. More than anyone else,I want him to recover fast and come back to us. I missed him very much and the kids will not cease to ask me about their father. I decided to do research and I communicated with a renowned psychiatric doctor. I successfully got his attention and I paid a certain fee. I will send you a series of dates that I was offered to pick from as my slot and let's think about a particular date that you will be able to lure Louis to go and see the doctor. That's the major reason that I have invited you ove
Miranda's eyes were moist. She hugged Louis. Yes, only she loves him the most. "I'll be right back" she declared and kissed his chin before dashing upstairs. Ellis eventually returned to the office. He saw Leah standing,her eyes red and puffy. She saw her husband and rushed quickly to him. "Ellis, how is Louis? He hadn't gone crazy right? Where is he now? Is he fine or in the hospital? Which hospital did you take him to? I called you several times but you wouldn't answer your phone. Where is our son? What has happened to him? Can I see him…" Leah was asking question upon question when Ellis interrupted her. "Calm down, Leah," Ellis said, placing his hands on her shoulders and giving her a soft massage. "I am calm, Ellis. I just want to know if Louis is alright now?" She asked again, raising her chin and glancing up at her husband. "Louis is fine. But who told you about him?" Ellis asked, squinting. Not him and definitely not Romeo because the latter is unhap
His eyes fixed on her as if he was x-raying her heart through her eyes. He was furious and Clarion is testing his patience. "You are testing my patience Clarion! What is your business with my concubines? Didn't I serve you well when you were at their age? Is that why you deny me your rightful duty, simply because I have concubines? At least two of them are pregnant, which shows the result of my hard work. I will invite you tonight, again. I dare you to refuse my invitation. You will feel my wrath. You will see a side of me that you have never seen. I will act as the King and not as your husband!" He bellowed. Clarion forcefully pulled her hand off and snorted "I am not interested in you anymore. I despise you, Tarvan. I will advise that you take any of the concubines and not wait for my old tired body" "I have them at my fingertips and at my call and beckon. I will choose them if I want, I don't need your advice on that. You are my wife, my first woman and
