48 - Just promise me one thing
Last Updated:
2022-01-06 16:33:47Mercedes could feel her heart still. It wasn't in the plan for Nathan to pick her at the hangar. He wasn't even supposed to be here. She was supposed to have a good time with her mom and brother. Was he breaking up with her? Was that why he sent her away?" If so then why would he entrust her with high company responsibility? It didn't make sense and also didn't add up.
"I can take anything Nat, just spit it," she said in earnestness.
Nathan didn't know where to start from but it had to be from somewhere. "You have to know that the doctors did all they could to save him." Instantly, Mercedes' mind travelled to her brother. But he said he was fine the last time they spoke a few days ago. What could have gone wrong?
"Oliver?" Her heart pleaded against it.
"No, your dad." Relief washed over Mercedes just as the understanding sank in.
"What?...No! He can't be dead. No!" All this while, she had remained strong, taking up the responsibility of fendin

"What is that?" Nathan asked seriously. If it was within his power, he would fulfil her promise. "Make sure he rots in prison for all he put me through. When he found out I was pregnant, he started acting all nice, when in actual fact, every drink he gave me was spiked with something to make me miscarry. Please let him pay. One more thing. It was the same means they used to make Sarah miscarry, thrice till she got tired and got her tubes tied. He works well with Betty." Nathan was horrified at the revelation. His father had been drinking and dining with enemies he thought were his friends but he couldn't feel pity for his dad. Rather, he felt sorry for Clarisse and Sarah. He would make Luke and Betty pay. "Thanks for telling me. I will still do as I want for you to be comfortable," he said and left. He was broken by the time he got back to the penthouse and it was getting late but he drove them to the mansion he had arranged. Having Sarah with him proved wort

It was past midnight but Nathan couldn't take his eyes off the woman lying gloriously naked beside him. Events from the first time they met flooded his mind, bringing tears to his eyes. How could he have known that this woman would become a great pillar in his life and hold the key to his happiness, bringing him out of that ice fortress he built around himself? One whose needs and wants mattered to him more than his. One who could make him travel the world or dive into the sea, just to retrieve whatever she wanted. He loved her so much, much to obsession. He had her but he still wanted her to be his, to fulfil her every desire, to give her the joy that she deserved. They finished making love barely an hour ago and she fell asleep but merely staring at her, he turned hard. He didn't want to disturb her sleep but he couldn't resist her as well. He trailed his finger through her spine gently, as if to not wake her. He began placing soft kisses on her back, his hands tra

Jane's words were so urgent, Nathan couldn't contemplate but he was certain he heard her mention his son. Instantly, he dropped his cutlery, his neck turning to Mercedes. She was calm. "You can go," she uttered without a look at him.Jane was giving Nathan the chance to see the boy she had used to torment him these two years. She hoped the truth would be revealed as Nathan went with Jane."No, you are coming with me, "Nathan yanked her before she could say no. Alexander, Betty and Sarah followed suit. For as long as Alexander and Sarah knew, something was happening to their grandson and they needed to be there for him.Nathan rode with Mercedes, while Alexander rode with Sarah. Betty with Jane. "You fool, couldn't you have just excused yourself? Why did you have to bring him along?"Betty chastised her daughter. She already lost Alexander and her only way was to use her daughter to get revenge on him. To cause them pain. The pain of keeping fr

When Nathan left Mercedes, he wanted to get Luke arrested instantly but rather went in search of Griffin. No matter how he tried, he couldn't let it slide. Griffin didn't try to get out of the hotel. He just went to the room he had booked to change when a knock sounded on the door. Somehow, he suspected Nathan but knew he had to face him one way or the other. As soon as he opened the door, a strong punch disfigured his teeth, causing his gums to bleed. "You asshole, she won't tell me but I know it's you. The surveillance cameras and CCTV with all investigations point at you. So tell me, why did you abduct my fiance?" Nathan was furious, glaring daggers at him. Griffin wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth. The pain was seething but he endured it like a man. He couldn't be upset because he deserved it. "Your fiance is also my best friend, Nathan," he was remorseful but Nathan wasn't moved. "Just that? Was that why you did what you did? The only thing h

Alexander Legend and his wife had a wedding anniversary and also renewed their vows. Their marriage has been rekindled and their love grew stronger. Sarah wasn't able to have a child of her own but she was happy because she was going to have a grandchild. Griffin and Angie got married three months after Nathan and Mercedes did. Penelope stayed in the marriage with Mr Hayes, vowing to be a good wife and enduring her thirty seconds with a grateful heart. Lanre and Clarisse went to visit Luke in prison after they got married two months after Nathan and Mercedes did. Luke was exasperated. He seemed to be the type of man who only saw value in something, only after he lost it. Clarrise seemed to be blooming, which could only be attributed to her peaceful and loving marriage. Luke was in his orange prison uniform, bringing out of him a humbling look in contrast to his usual arrogant self. He sat opposite Lanre and Clarisse in the inmates' visitors room. "I see you m

Author’s Note: Thank you for reading up to this point. The continuation will focus on Oliver Winters, with occasional appearances by Mercedes and Nathan. They are no longer the main characters from this point on.Chapter 55 – Blind Date"Nat, what are you doing here?" Mercedes asked, surprised, as Nathan strolled into her office and approached her desk. They arrived at the company together and since there was not a problem demanding both their attention, Mercedes did not expect to see him before lunch.For as long as they were in the company together, they had lunch together. Despite all the stress they had endured together, they still turned heads as the most attractive couple wherever they went."Do I need permission to come see my wife?" Nathan asked possessively, as he enveloped her in his arms and planted a kiss on her lips. Moving behind her, he brushed strands of hair to the side of her shoulder.Mercedes's body always reacted quickly to him, but this time, she felt something co

At NL Towers, Oliver was in the middle of a meeting with his managers when his phone rang. Thinking it was one of the other business partners, he checked the caller ID, prepared to excuse his secretary, Paul, to answer it.Just like Nathan, Oliver never had a female secretary, and his only focus was moving the Company forward. When he saw the call was from Nathan, he cleared his throat and instantly answered it.He could never be too busy to speak to Nathan or Mercedes. “Nathan.”As all the managers heard the name, they understood the reason why the president had to answer the call. Nathan was the chairman of NL Towers.Oliver never thought that his mentor and brother-in-law would have time to propose something so ridiculous like a blind date. It was farfetched and unlike him. “What?”Oliver expressed his shock as Nathan answered from the end of the line. “Please don’t blame me. Your sister is very worried about you. Just one blind date, and I will never poke my nose into your romanti

“You must be so dumb to think you are entitled to anything. Those vows I exchanged with you were not from my heart, and the name on the marriage certificate was Linda, not Lily. From how I see it, you were just a stand-in bride,” Oliver said heartlessly.Tears rolled down Lily’s cheeks. Indeed, her brain was not smart enough to think in that direction.“But it’s my picture. You are just lying and will never find Linda.”“I already did,” Oliver said with a smile. “How did I know your real name then? Did you think about that?” Oliver asked with a menacing glare. Lily was heartbroken.“But I wanted you.”Now Randy was getting upset and chipped in. “It was just for the money.”“Shut up, Randy. It's your fault. How could you lose track of her?” She asked bitterly. Oliver shook his head.If no

Earlier, Lily received a call from Randy. “Lily, I need to see you urgently.”“What is the matter? Where is Linda?” She asked, wondering why Randy was still calling her. Shouldn't he have slept with her sister like she told him already?“Lily, I can’t talk on the phone,” Randy said seriously, “I’m coming to see you.”“What about Linda? Who will give her the next dosage? Besides, Oliver’s security men would not let you inside the house,” Lily asked and said worriedly, afraid that her sister would regain her memory when she hadn’t made any headway with Oliver.“I’m coming,” Randy said and ended the call. Lily was so disturbed and could not sleep until the security informed her.“Are you expecting any Ruby?”Lily was confused for a moment before it occurred to her what was happening,

“Doesn’t this look familiar, Linda?” Oliver asked, but Linda was feeling strange and confused as she stood at the door, looking at the man in the suit.She could not understand the reason for the romantic setup when her manager had said that the man in this room wanted to see her.“I’m Chloe,” she corrected, not understanding why he kept addressing her as Linda. Perhaps he was mistaking her for somebody else.Oliver rose from the bed, walking to her as he held her by the hand, leading her to the table. It was the same setup as their first time, as he hoped it would remind her of something.The touch of his hand on hers caused a strange fire to spark inside of her, making her wonder who exactly he was.“Who are your parents?” Oliver asked as he pulled the chair for her. Linda pressed her hand against her forehead, feeling dizzy all of a sudden.&

The day before, Linda woke up in a strange room with a man sitting beside her. “Where am I?” she asked, confused as she couldn't recall anything.The man smiled. “You are in your room. You weren't feeling well, so I came to check on you.”“Who are you?” she asked. The man smiled.“You don’t remember me? I’m your boyfriend,” he said. Linda frowned imperceptibly. Though she couldn't remember a thing, she felt no attraction to the man.“What’s your name?”“Seriously? Randy. Come on, you have to go to work,” he said. Linda was at a loss.“Work? Where?”“You work as a waiter at the hotel. I already took permission for you, so don’t be late.”Linda felt a pang of a headache coming on as she tried to remember something but everything seemed blurry to her.
Mr President's Wild Obsession 71 - Linda has a sister?
Gwen hoped it was another surprise for her best friend and would do it even without Oliver’s help with her brother."With what? Did she not like the honeymoon surprise? You wouldn’t be here if she did," Gwen said worriedly, forgetting her own troubles.She was hoping that this night would be the best for Linda but due to the news about her brother, she wasn’t thinking straight.Oliver was more convinced that she did not know but decided to test her, just in case."The woman I married isn’t your best friend, true or false?"Gwen gasped, shock lacing her voice. "Honestly, I’m confused."For all she knew. Linda was the one she prepared for the wedding but then, was that the reason for Oliver’s strange behavior?She never met
Mr President's Wild Obsession 70 – If you help me
Earlier that night, the middle-aged couple were startled by a knock on their door around midnight.It was Linda and Lily’s father, Stephen Ross, who went to answer the door, annoyed that his sleep was disrupted.Upon seeing their eldest daughter, he furrowed his brow, still groggy from sleep. “Lily, why aren’t you sleeping?” he asked, sounding annoyed.Everyone was eager to rest before the big day, and the unexpected visit was unwelcome.However, Lily was determined to carry out her plan.“Dad, Linda is unconscious, and she won’t wake up for another twenty-four hours. Even then, she won’t remember anything,” Lily revealed, feigning concern, but her father sensed something was amiss.This news was troubling, and he was not prepared fo
Mr President's Wild Obsession 69 – How it all happened
The night of the wedding.“Linda, every girl must have a bridal shower,” Lily suggested, but Linda was not interested, knowing how much of a beast Oliver was in bed.She would rather have her beauty rest and save enough energy for their honeymoon.“No. I’m not in the mood,” she politely rejected the idea.She didn’t have friends, so even if she wanted to have a bridal shower, it would just be with pretentious people trying to worm their way into her life because her status changed for the better.Unfortunately for her, Lily was not willing to give up on getting her to have that bridal shower.All her plans had failed so far, and if this also failed, then she would lose her chances of having Oliver like she wanted.As such, she thought of a way of making Linda more comfortable. Gwen was supposed to come very early in the morning because the weddin
Mr President's Wild Obsession 68 – Not feeling the special bond
“Did you forget that we have to hang out after work?” Andrew let down his guard for the sake of Linda and asked, disappointment lacing his tone.There was so much he wanted to discuss with Oliver but also had to come to terms with the fact that things were slowly beginning to change.Oliver was unregretful as he explained, “Sorry. My woman comes first. You should go spend time with your woman too.”Andrew looked gloomy at the mention of his woman but did not respond. It would have been easier to explain if Linda wasn’t there, but since she was, he had to wait for another day, which he could not see happening.In two weeks, Oliver was going to get married and would go for a week honeymoon.Surely, all his free time would belong to his wife after that, so Andrew did not have a part in the life of his best friend anymore.They were both very busy, and Friday nights
Mr President's Wild Obsession 67 - I have all the patience in the world
Linda was slightly uncomfortable with the change in his demeanor but knew one thing for sure. “You are my fiancé.”This man proposed to her unexpectedly, also making a public declaration of how much he loved her over the phone to her peers, in spite of his status in the corporate world.Her response removed all the worry he felt when he pulled over, as a smile replaced the frown from before.He then thought of another way to send the message he wanted to give her across.“And I also like to enjoy the fruit of my labor. I dreamed of that special day ever since I met you and with all the people invited, everything has to be top-notch.”Linda, as much as she felt like he was spending too much, understood the silent message that there were levels of life that prevented the likes of Oliver to come down to her level of expenditure.All she had to do was climb his high
