My Angel Chapter 54: Something is not right
"Jacqueline, what is it?" he asked realizing she wasn't her usual self."Nothing just woke up sick," she replied and Ethan looked at her questioningly. "Hangover?" he asked "I guess," she replied shrugging her shoulder She excused herself and headed for her room, leaving Ethan in the corridor. Ethan was happy she was not throwing her usual advances and seductive actions at him today but it seemed like too abrupt an end."Did someone say something to her?" he wondered looking in the direction of her door She exited her room after a few minutes and walked towards him looking down. She wore a loose crop top and a flared skirt which was long enough to cover her knees. Noting like her usual body-con outfits which were always ten inches above her knees yet she still looked beautiful. They both headed for the restaurant and had their breakfast in silence. Ethan noticed she was unusually quiet. It was the third day of their second conference and even though he was happy she was not bothe

"How is Camilla not answering her phone connected to something I did years ago," he asked with a frown"Your daughter is trying to do something for herself. That is your job," he yelled at him surprising him."What are you talking about?" Mr Garcia questioned her wondering how Camila's phone being off is connected to him sleeping with a maid years ago when Camila was not even born. "It is your fault, Matthew. I am a mother and I can feel within me Camila is in trouble. And if my motherly instinct is right, whatever happens to Camila is your fault," Mrs Garcia whined "Eva, I think I have condoned you blaming me for years for one mistake I committed which you played a role in. For how long must I apologize for that?" he blurted out "Until my soul is appeased," she said facing him squarely "Eva, I accept I acted foolishly under the influence of alcohol but I would be in my bed sleeping and would not have drunk myself to stupidity if you had not sent me away from my home because of y
My Angel Chapter 56: Camila is in Danger
"He is about to fall into another trap?" he reported "What do you mean?" he asked "My first encounter with Mr Green was at a conference in California," he began as they both sat down in the small office. "He seems like a nice person. We talked about business and he suggested a partnership which did sound like a good idea after telling me what he said he was into. I had an idea for an entrepreneur training centre. I decided we can go fifty-fifty on that but I visited him unannounced and found out something shocking," Mr Carter narrated. "What did you find out?" Andrews asked "He is a con artist. That is how he earned his wealth," he replied "He was giving instructions to someone on the phone and he didn't know I was there. His security man allowed me in because it wasn't my first time coming over to his apartment. And his guards didn't bother about me either. I left the same way I had come in. I suspect he may have seen me," Mr Carter narrated "Why didn't you call the police on h

"You are the worst thing that happened to me. I am sure you will soon add Jonathan to the list of people who have to pay for your stupid mistake," she added looking at him behind the wheel.Mr Garcia remained silent behind the wheel as he drove towards home."You are a disgrace. I regret the day I stood on the altar and said I do to you. My life would have been better off without you. I wish you never fathered Jonathan and Camila. You good for nothing piece of shit," she cursed, yelling at him at the top of her voice."I am sure your parents are turning in their graves cursing the day you were born," she said and the car came to an abrupt stop almost throwing her off if not for the seat belt."Enough woman. Nineteen years and you still throw the same thing up my face. How long are you going to bring that up anytime something bad happens? Camila pooped in her diaper and it was because I slept with the maid, Jonathan broke his leg at a football game and is my fault because I slept with
My Angel Chapter 58: Rescue Mission - Part 2
Isabella tried calling Camila's phone one more time on her way to the station and this time it went through. She found a place and parked the car waiting for the phone to be answered "Hello Camila," she said as soon as the call was answered. "Hmm," came the voice from the other end of the phone."Camila, are you alright? Your parents are worried sick about you. They even went to the police station to file a missing person's report. Where are you?" she said and the call was disconnected. "Camila," she called her name but heard the disconnection tone.She tried calling again and it went through but no answer. She tried again and it went to voicemail. "Why will Camila do that?" she thought and put the car into motion heading for the police station Mrs Garcia had mentioned to her. At the police station, Mr. and Mrs. Garcia were with Inspector Davis answering some questions about their daughter"Okay, just to make sure I have everything here to begin the search. You said the last time
My Angel Chapter 59: We found your Daughter
The man spoke to his wife and left the house with the officers. They sat in his car and they headed for the destination, where he had dropped Camila off four days ago.Meanwhile, Jonathan with the help of some connected friends has also found the location where Camila was dropped off and was already on his way there. He arrived at the location and parked his car a distance away from the apartment which was very visible from where he was. He studied the environment for a while. The environment was serene and aside from one small house sitting on a vast land with a very short fence, all the other houses were far away."Looks like someone bought this land for a project and maybe decided to put this small house on it," he thought and planned on how to go inside without being noticed. There were some planted bushes around the huge compound almost the same height as the fence. Jonathan after slowly getting close to the fence lay down on his belly and and hid himself behind the bushes. He
My Angel Chapter 60: Ethan Returns
Dr Chloe typed a message;[You know what to do with the guard outside]She sent it and smiled at the acknowledgement. She drove away from the location.At the hospital, Jonathan and Camila were both sent to the ER. Jonathan was the first to come out with a plaster on his nose bridge. His parents arrived at the hospital and he frowned seeing them."Jonathan, please let's talk about this later. Let's take care of your sister first," Mr Garcia said seeing Jonathan was about to leave the moment they walked in.He stood there with his father holding him but said nothing. He shifted his gaze to his unusually silent mother. "I will wait in the car," he said and headed for the exit."Inspector Davis," Mr Garcia said when he saw Davis walking towards him."Did you find the one who had my daughter?" he asked. "There was no one there. It looks as if they knew we were coming and ran off. The call made by her friend alerted them. But not to worry, we will keep investigating until we find who was
My Angel Chapter 61: Mr Carter find's out about Camila's pregnancy
"Perfect. Finally, I will get what I want," she said with a smile as she hugged Ethan and Jacqueline later. She didn't know what Mr Green had in mind for her. "So how was the conference?" Mrs Carter asked once they were all seated in the living room. Jacqueline was sitting next to Ethan with both hands stretched over the back of the sofa. Mrs Carter sat on the sofa adjacent to them. "It was great. Ethan was just amazing. The people learnt a lot from his presentations and they asked good questions indicating they were listening to everything he was saying and were ready to put them to action," Jacqueline replied with a smile while Ethan just stared at her side profile. "Was it all work or was there time to tour the city?" she asked to find out if they were able to spend some time alone. "The schedule was very tight but we had the chance to visit one of their amazing restaurants before returning to New York," Ethan replied and Jacqueline smiled. "Well, it is good to be back hom

My Angel Chapter 148: Forgiveness repairs Relationships
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
My Angel Chapter 147: An Opportunity to Make Amends
At Mr Garcia's home, later in the day, Mr Garcia heard a knock on his door and he went to answer it. It was Mr Carter and a young lady. He invited them in and ushered them to the living room. "You are welcome," Mr Garcia said and Olivia stood to her feet looking at Mr Garcia.Mr Garcia looked at the young lady wondering what she was doing."Daddy," Olivia said and Mr Garcia stared at her."Olivia?" Mr Garcia said."Yes," Olivia replied."How? I saw the image, I.....I....," Mr Garcia said alternating his gaze between the lady before her and Mr Carter. "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. Olivia got emotional too and hugged him."Forgive me, my daughter. I didn't protect you as a father. I abandoned you and watched while people treated you badly. I don't deserve you. I am so sorry," Mr Garcia said while hugging Olivia."It is okay, Dad. I
My Angel Chapter 146: Reconciliation Day
The next day, a Saturday, the news channels were hit with shocking news of Mr Carter being alive. Mr Garcia was sitting behind his TV when he saw the news of Mr Carter being alive. His eyes widened. "Isabella, come quick," Mr Garcia shouted from the living room."What happened?" Isabella asked as she descended the staircase into the living room."Look," Mr Garcia replied with his eyes fixated on the television set as he pointed to the screen."Mr Carter is alive?" Isabella asked in shock."So who did we bury?" Isabella asked and Mr Garcia shrugged his shoulders.Isabella sat down and Mr Garcia increased the volume to listen to what the reporter was saying."The city of New York woke up to an interesting news about Mr Carter the well-known billionaire whose burial service we held at the church a couple of months ago and later sent to the grave to be buried to be very much alive. As you can see behind him, he was supported this morning by one reporter when he was exiting the courthouse
My Angel Chapter 145: Mrs Carter's Freedom for Change
At the prison, Mrs Carter was told he had a visitor. She was so happy. She left the prison yard teasing Mrs Garcia and Jacqueline."You see when you marry the right man. Everything works in your favour," Mrs Carter said and left knowing Mr Carter had come to get her out. Mrs Carter entered a room and frowned seeing the person who had come to see her."Who are you and what do you want with me?" 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 know he would always come through for me," Mrs Carter said and took the envelope from the man as she sat on the seat opposite the man.She quickly opened it to see the content. A white sheet came out and she frowned seeing the title on the sheet. DIVORCE. "I would advise you not to give him a hard time but just sign your part and you will be promised a peaceful day in prison," the lawyer said offering Mrs
My Angel Chapter 144: Mrs Carter's Promised Freedom
Mr Garcia was immediately shuttered. His wife will be in prison for 15 years. "This is all my fault. 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. Just forgive him and let's move on as a family. I appreciate what you did. Standing for what is right despite family relationship," Mr Carter said to Jeremy."It wasn't a difficult decision to take. Growing up, I heard some stories about my uncle even though I didn't kn
My Angel Chapter 143: The Judge's Verdict
"Do you have any other anything else you would like to present in defence of your client?" the judge "That will be all my lord," Mrs Carter's lawyer said. "Okay, this case is adjourned till late afternoon," the judge said.The judge left and the courtroom became noisy. Mr Carter stepped out followed by Ethan, Olivia and Jeremy. "With the way things are going how do think this would end," Jeremy asked Mr Carter. "Well, at least the side of Mr Martin and Mr Green is clear. My wife and Mrs Garcia may go down together. They worked together on this," Mr Carter replied "Will you reveal your identity and testify against your wife like you earlier planned?" Jeremy asked. "It may not be necessary with the way things are progressing but if anything changes, I will," Mr Carter replied.Just a distance away from Jeremy and Mr Carter, Ethan was also engaging Olivia in a conversation."I am so sorry for everything you went through," Ethan apologized. "It is in the past now. Let's just move o
My Angel Chapter 142: Lawyers Battle Out In Court
"Mrs Carter found out that Mrs Garcia had filed the case against her and Mrs Carter decided to teach Mrs Garcia a lesson. The kidnap was on the stage and Mrs Garcia was framed. The documents here prove, that all the payments made from Mrs Garcia's account were false. Exhibit D shows Mrs Garcia's statement from the bank. The two documents were printed days and you can see, in one document, the numbers were manipulated to make Mrs Garcia look guilty," Mr Wilson said.The judge looked at all the documents presented. "Council, what do you have to say in defence of your client?" the judge asked"My lord, thank you. My colleague presented a lot of facts with evidence to prove his point. I must say he presented a convincing story but here are the questions; Mrs Carter and Mrs Garcia had conversations on the phone had always been about the welfare of their children. It was true Mrs Garcia misunderstood the late Mr Carter's choice of a bride for his son and assumed it was her daughter, Ms C
My Angel Chapter 141: The Court Processing - Part 3
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
My Angel Chapter 140: The Court Proceedings - Part 2
"Ethan, I am sorry for all the trouble I caused you during our college days. They were not deliberately done," Jeremy apologised and the two hugged each other. "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
