"We are going to work together to get the trash out of my son's house. This is why I am here," Mrs Carter said and they all nodded in agreement

"Great, looks like we are all aligned on this one," Mrs Garcia acknowledged

"I have one problem,' Mrs Carter began

"Is this place a safe place to talk?" she asked

"Yes, it is. That stupid girl knows better not to eavesdrop," Camila said

"Great, I have one problem and that is my heart. The trash has won my heart and listens to nothing as an objection," Mrs Carter said and both Camila and Mrs Garcia were confused

"Ah, I get you now," Mrs Garcia said when she completed her statement

"Get the Cardiologists to turn it into a vegetable," Mrs Garcia suggested and Camila was still confused about what the two ladies were talking about.

"I'm mostly scared of surgeries and so I never request for them," Mrs Carter said

"Don't worry, leave that to me. There is a reason I am still the queen of my empire, I can help you with that," Mrs Garcia

Olivia asked because it didn't look like a creamer. "Yeah, you can even tell from the smell," she said and intentionally dropped the cup to the ground "Oh, I am so sorry," she apologizes "Don't worry about it," Olivia said and called out to Derby "Please help me clean this up," she requested and Derby acknowledged She exited and returned in a few minutes to clean the broken pieces up while Camila continue to apologize to Olivia "I think we can go to the poolside," Isabella suggested "Yes, and Camila don't worry about the cup.

Back at Carter's apartment, Mrs Carter was entering the living room from the dining room after having her supper alone when her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and smiled seeing the strange number. In her mind, she already knew what the call was about."It has happened," she thought and answered the call"Hello, is this Mrs Carter?" asked the caller"Yes, who is this?" she replied "My name is Yvonne. I am a receptionist at the General Hospital, there has been a terrible accident involving your husband and son," she reported Mrs Carter's smile vanished immediately from her face."My son was involved in an accident? How did it happen?" she asked wondering how Ethan got involved. "I don't have the details but your husband and son are both here," the receptionist repeated thinking she probably did he

She had driver her husband out of the bedroom since she found out Olivia was the chosen bride and not her daughter. She took a shower and picked an off-white straight dress with gathers at the waist level from the closet. She put it on and adorned her neck with some jewellery before stepping out of the bedroom heading for the staircase."Mum, have you heard anything concerning Ethan?" Camila asked seeing her mother descending the staircase"Sssh, stop asking about Ethan alone like he is your husband," she shut her and held her by the arms ensuring no one else was around.She drags her back to her bedroom making sure Mr Garcia or Jonathan were still nowhere in sight. She pushed her into the room and closed the door behind her."Look, there were two people involved in the accident. Stop acting like you only care about Ethan. Remember

The last information I got said you went to pick her up, to bring her over to the hospital to see my son," she enquired "Yes but I didn't know which hospital so we were moving from hospital to hospital looking for Ethan," replied Jeremy Mrs Carter replied with a 'huh' and pushed the door to the ward open without saying another. word. Jeremy and Olivia followed her and right after she entered the ward, Jeremy entered and so did Olivia in that order. "Great you are here. I tried calling you but I was..."

    "Olivia, how long have you been standing there?' Camila asked "What was she doing with her hands under her dressing leaning against the wall," Olivia thought looking at her."It is not what you think," she said walking towards Olivia who appeared to be glued to her spot staring at her with confusion written all over her face. "I was just, erm...." she tried to explain but realize she didn't owe her any explanation and secondly explaining would only create a superior authority in her and even complicate things. "You know what, forget about what you saw. What is important here is what Ethan had gone through. As a good wife, you have to make him happy," she said"Yes, you are right. What do you suggest?" Olivia enquired"A get-together will not be a bad idea," she said placing a hand on Olivia's shoulders"A party?" she asked "Yes, find out when he will be discharged and let's put a welcome party together," she suggested"Okay," Olivia replied and Camila pulled her towards the direct

When Mrs Carter returned to the ward it was fifteen minutes to 5 pm. She stood at the entrance and watched Ethan and Olivia sharing a bed. She frowned and went out of the ward. She called one of the doctors and requested Ethan is given a sedative to help him sleep "He has been restless all night," she informed the doctor "I don't think it is necessary but well it wouldn't have any negative effect," he replied and instructed the nurse to give Ethan a sedative. The nurse walked in and saw Olivia and Ethan sharing the hospital bed. She tapped Olivia's leg gently and she opened her eyes. Her movement made Ethan open his eyes too. "I am here to give you your medications," the nurse informed him and he nodded Olivia got down from the bed and moved away intending to give the nurse some space t

    "I will," Camila acknowledged "If we feed her with more of the pill her body will naturally prevent her from getting pregnant," she thought remembering something she learnt in a science class. In the dining area, while they were all sitting around the table having dinner. Mrs Garcia decided to break the long silence."Camila would be going to leave with Olivia for a while. The poor girl is feeling lonely living in that big house," she said looking at her husband and he knew better not to question why the decision. He made a mistake and it has become a price to pay forever. He has lost his authority as a man in the house as his wife constantly reminds him of his mistake the least chance she gets and how it almost cost her her life, and that she could no longer work.

It was 6 am when his mother woke up from her sleep by the entering of the medical doctor. "Good morning," he greeted holding a file in his hand Ethan lay on his right side, his back facing the doctor who was standing in the middle of the room. "Good morning," responded Mrs Carter "Mr Carter, are you still sleeping?" he asked and walked towards the feet of the bed to see his face. He realized his eyes were open. He was just staring at the monitoring machine which was off. "Mr Carter, you don't look happy. Anything the matter?" the doctor asked and Ethan's gaze shifted to the doctor who was almost stretching to see his face. He sat on the bed with a cold expression. His mother looked at him knowing very well why he was loo

    Ethan knocked and entered Camila's room and closed the door. The moment he closed the door, Camila came to him and kissed him. Ethan froze and for a moment didn't know what to do. She was heavily pregnant and pushing her felt like a terrible option. Opening the door was also not a good idea, what if Olivia sees them? She might misunderstand the situation. Ethan held Camila's shoulder and held her at arm's length pulling away from her. "Get a hold of yourself. I am neither your boyfriend nor husband. Do you go about kissing every man you are attracted to on the street? Have some dignity and respect for yourself. You make yourself too cheap and that is why you never attracted me and with this attitude, you will not attract any good man out there," Ethan said in one breath to Camila looking very angry. "You think I am cheap?" Camila said almost on the verge of tears. "It was one thing to be cheap and another to act like one. You are not cheap, you just present yourself as one," Ethan

"Mr Carter found me and saved me," Olivia replied and Mr Garcia instantly became emotional.Mr Garcia covered his mouth with his hand and uncontrolled tears began to fall from his eyes.

Mrs Carter asked proceeding to the provided seat."Hello, I am a representative of Mr Carter. He asked me to give you this," the lawyer said and Mrs Carter smiled."Aww, my handsome hubby.

I failed to put my feet down as a man and allowed all this to happen," Mr Garcia thought unable to get up from his seat. He watched as they took his wife away to begin her jail sentence. "What does this mean?" Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "I don't have to do anything. The properties will come back to Ethan," Mr Carter said. "Jeremy, you and Ethan have come a long way. I know you had your difference from college but I beg you to be a better person than my son is. Aside from honouring a great woman, he did something great for me, I chose Olivia for Ethan because I believe, that with Olivia, Ethan would be a better person.

    Ethan thanked the servant and left for his room. In his room, he sat on the sofa in deep thought of everything his father had told him. Ethan realized when it comes to life and living it, he fails to think on his behalf. He rather allows close relatives to think of him. In his anger, he never gives the one who offended him a chance to at least explain. Ethan lay in bed recalling lots of things that had happened in his life and how he handled them. Unable to sleep, he got down from his bed and exited his room. He wanted to go to Olivia but looking at the time he decided not to disturb Olivia. He heads for the balcony. The light on the balcony was off and the city light was the only light providing some visibility to the balcony. He entered the balcony and found Olivia sitting on the chair. He sat next to her and took her hand in his. "Olivia, I am sorry for how I treated you when we were married. I never protected and never listened to you. I caused you more pain than I claimed to lo

"Ethan, please stay and work with me," Jeremy requests and Ethan obliges.Ethan put aside his resentment towards Jeremy and they did a great job at the company together. All the guards Mr Martin brought on board to monitor everyone were sent away. The guards were unhappy but since they didn't have any contract with the company and the one whom they had a contract with had been arrested, they had no option then to leave. The operations of the company were placed back in the previous working system. Employees who were terminated by Mr Martin were all called back and compensated for the injustice done to them. While Ethan and Jeremy handled restoring the operations of the company, Olivia was tasked with handling the new client's request.It was soon 6 p.m. and Ethan asked Olivia to call it a day while he stayed back with Jeremy t
