The following morning, Old Madam Brown woke up at dawn before instructing her chauffeur to drive her to David's Villa.She had to make sure with her own eyes that indeed David had a woman in his house just like Alicia reported.It was around six in the morning when the car came to a stop at the Villa.With the help of Jonas, her chauffeur, she stepped down and headed to the house.The maids were already up and working to prepare breakfast for the family while others were cleaning the house." Old Madam!" Nancy, one of the maids who spotted the Lady first greeted.She was elated to see the old Madam so early in the morning. Ofcourse, she could already tell why the old Madam was here.Having heard Alicia gossip with Aunt Meng about informing her grandmother about the new woman in the house, she was happy that someone was finally here to put that poor bitch into her place.Nancy arrived at the Brown Villa three years ago, immediately after the death of Sandra, the late Mistress of the ho
" Hey, what's wrong Love?" David asked, pushing Sheila at arms length and observing her crying face.He was so happy a while ago that his little woman was finally taking the initiative to kiss him so what happened? What made her cry? Wiping her tears clean, he forced himself up, his back leaning on the headboard.Sheila was still straddling him, her face trained down.David did not know how to placate a crying woman. He did not have that experience.The only person he has ever placated was Lily so he was clueless how to go about it.Crashing her in his chest, he started rubbing her back in circles." Can you tell me why you are crying, huh?" He asked ever so gently but it came out as some sort of questioning.Afraid that David will be pissed off with her tears, she wiped them clean and made to sit up from his thighs.Gripping her waist tightly, David did not give Sheila the chance to escape him.He wanted to know why his little wife was crying because he was concerned." Are you in p
David did not know how to react to whatever revelation his grandmother made.Three years ago, he was coming from a business party with Sandra.He was drunk so Sandra chose to drive them home. It started raining and that's when Sandra decided to drive faster to get them home sooner.Who would have thought that the next time she went home was in a casket?Her car had lost control after the brakes failed and that's how they slammed into a tricycle.When he woke up, it was a month later and his wife was already dead and buried.His grandmother also informed him that she took care of everything and that he should concentrate on getting better and taking care of his daughter.He never bothered to inquire more about the accident because all it did was remind him about the painful memories he wanted to forget.Not a day had it passed without him blaming himself for his wife's death If he didn't drink and get tipsy in that damn party, his wife would still be alive and Lily would have her mot
Nancy walked to her room angrily making sure nobody was within the vicinity before making a call.Of all outcomes she expected, having old madam Brown acknowledge Sheila and Invite her to the house was not one of them.She was no fool to not realise what was happening.Despite Sheila's poor background, she must have been satisfied with her and that was something she was unwilling to accept.Removing her phone, she made a phone call." You better have something important to report otherwise I'll kill you with my bare hands!" Laura's voice spoke from the other side of the phone.She was obviously pissed that someone dared to disturb her beauty sleep." I don't think you should be sleeping comfortably when another woman continues to sink her claws to your man." Annoyed by Laura's bossy attitude, Nancy taunted.She could not stand how arrogant Laura was, especially when she spoke to her like she was ordering her maid.' Just so you wait. When I finally become Mrs Brown,I will make you reg
After his grandmother left, David had breakfast accompanied by Lily and Sheila who had already had theirs.He then left for the company after kissing the two women in his life goodbye.Instead of going directly to the company, he instructed his personal driver to drive him to the private burial ground bought specifically for his wife.While on the way, his mind flashed back to that fateful night he lost his wife.Flashback ( Three years ago)The collision had cleared all the alcohol in his system. He turned to look at Sandra who was trapped between the driver's chair and the steering wheel.A metal shard had pierced her abdomen and she had countless cuts on her face.He had tried struggling to free himself from the overturned car but he was unsuccessful.Even when she was in so much pain herself, all she cared about was him." David, can you hear me?" Her voice was weak, coming out as a whisper." Shhhh, don't say anything, I'll get you out of here Sandra." David consoled trying to f
Country BIn a big mansion, a man in his late twenties is seen walking to the lawn.A woman in a wheelchair sits idly, staring into space.The man approaches and squats before her, a gentle smile on his face." Mother, how have you been? I am here to visit you." He says gently but the woman still stares into space, not acknowledging him." I have found a new lead about Charlene's whereabouts. I am heading to country A to continue my search for my sister. I promised you, didn't I? That I will only rest after bringing my little sister home? I will do everything in my power to bring her back into your arms." He said with a dotting smile.The woman finally gave a reaction. A lone tear slipped past her pale white face. One look at her and you would know that she was a beauty during her youth.Seeing his mother cry, the man gently wiped her tears with her thumb before kissing her forehead." You need to take your medicine and recover your health, mother or do you want Charlene to find you t
It was on a Monday morning and the father and daughter duo were already settled at the dining table ready for breakfast. However, someone was missing.Just when David was about to open his mouth and inquire about Sheila's whereabouts, she emerged from within the kitchen.She carried a bowl of something steaming as she walked towards the table.David broke into a sweet smile seeing his little woman had taken the initiative to cook for him.His daughter however snorted upon seeing his father smile.' Just you wait. I will wipe the smile of your face' she swore Inwardly.Sheila walked to the table and placed the bowl of noodles and fried eggs before Lily before taking her seat." Sorry baby, I had to make sure the noodles were well seasoned so it took some time." She apologised." It is okay, beautiful sister. It is worth the wait." Lily said sweetly, her eyes travelling to her father's face suggestively.Sheila turned to look at David and the smile on her face fell." This looks so deli
The day went well with Sheila working on some files she needed to submit to David.When she took over, the financial records had been messy with a lot of money disappearing without being accounted on.As a result, David tasked her with reviewing the company's finances for the last five years.She has been working diligently, identifying all the loopholes on the records and noting them down.David had filed an embezzlement case with the help of his lawyer against his previous auditor.He was never one to allow others to step on him and not retaliate.Sheila was about to finish documenting a file when the landline in her office rang.With her attention still on the file at hand, she picked up the call." Hello, how may I help you?" She said immediately the call went through but the other side said nothing.The heavy breathing from the other side told Sheila who was calling.With a smile on her face, she placed the documents on the table and leaned on her swivel chair, assuming a comfort
One year later" Darling, I think that dress is too tight." David persuaded as he caressed his wife's growing tummy." What do you know? I'm the one wearing the dress and not you." Sheila retorted, glaring at David.Her pregnancy was in her second trimester and was getting bigger." I'm just looking out for you." David said with a pout. Actually, the design she was wearing was showing too much skin at the back and he was displeased about that.Today was Alicia and Caleb's wedding day and his wife was among the bridesmaids." Alicia designed this dress for me and I'm sure she knew I was pregnant. You might as well say that you don't like the design rather than give me some baseless excuses." Sheila exposed David's thoughts, glaring at the man.First, he got her pregnant barely a year after they reunited, now, he wants to dictate what she will wear?" Okay, you can wear it but promise me to cover your back. I don't like others looking at your fair skin. Only I have the right to look at
" Don't you remember us anymore?" Lily asked Sheila, blinking her eyes expectantly. She was no fool. She could tell that something was wrong with her mommy.She was never the one to ignore others or pretend so the only explanation was : her mother forgot about them.Sheila shook her head. Something about how the girl was looking at her made her heart bleed." The man from earlier, who is he?" Sheila asked." He's our father and your husband." Lily honestly replied." Husband? I have a husband?" Sheila's brows were furrowed. Nobody told her that she was married with a family.Why did they hide the truth from her? She could tell that the girl before her was not lying to her. Why would she? She didn't have a reason to do that." The ring on your necklace, where did you get it from?" Lily asked. It was obviously the same ring her father gave her at their wedding." This?" Sheila asked, touching the ring attached to her necklace." My brother told me that it was given to me by Amelia's fat
" You tell him, he always listens to him." Lily said, pushing his brother Aiden towards their father who was seated on his office chair going through some files.The two had asked their driver to purposely drive them to their father's company because they had something to discuss with him." Why should I be the one to talk to him? You are the elder sister." Aiden complained. He could not understand why his sister was pushing him to speak to their father about the trip when she was the one who won the voucher." What's the matter?" David, who was aware of his children's presence in his office, asked." Lily has something to tell you."" Aiden wants to tell you something."The two said simultaneously, making David lift his head to look at them with raised brows." Come here," he beckoned the two who walked to his side.Pulling them each into his arms, he kissed their cheeks.His two children have been the reason he is still strong even after losing his wife.When he found Aiden left beh
Alicia and Caleb pulled away, each panting heavily. Caleb smiled at her, he didn't want to imagine that he just said yes to her proposal.Other men pride themselves when they confess to the woman they like, yet to him, he was confessed to by the woman he loved.He felt happy and special. He was not thinking of his status and wealth, for at this moment, it was her that was in his arms. He was not thinking of their background, or the people who would probably think he's after her for her wealth, it was just him and her, together, forever." Thanks everyone for being here to witness the beautiful start of our Love journey." Alicia said to the people, bowing slightly.Turning to Caleb, she pulled him impossibly close to her body, " don't you think we need some alone time together?" She whispered into his ears and watched how his face burned with embarrassment.Taking his hand, she led him to the elevator. The door to the elevator opened and together, they stepped Inside.After pressing on
Outside the elegant design shop, Caleb stood waiting with a bouquet of flowers at hand.Today, his best friend for the past five years invited him to a date.Clad in blue jeans and a white button up shirt, he was looking elegant and Charismatic.Five years had passed since he decided to face reality and be a better person for himself. Throughout the journey of discovering himself, a certain amazing woman stayed by his side. She corrected him when he went astray, encouraged him when he was on the verge of giving up and sympathised with him when things didn't go as planned.Today is the day he finally mustered his courage to ask her out only to have her beat him to the task. He was getting off the office where he worked when he received a call instructing him to pick her up at her shop so that they could have dinner together.It wasn't the first time they would be having dinner together but something about her voice told him that things might be different from tbe friendly dinners they
" Email? What email?" David asked with a frown." The madam, they have news about the madam." Jordan replied. He could not believe that they chose to use an email to contact his president.David immediately snatched the iPad in Jordans eyes before reading the email on display." My daughter, your wife is fine with me. I know your daughter needs surgery, that's why I have sent back your son to you. Hotel DAVOON , room 398. Be there, he will be waiting for you."The email was short but the contents made David's stomach churn violently." Prepare the car, we are leaving." David announced before making his way to the door." I want the sender of that email traced. I have to find my wife ." He ordered as he raced to the elevator." Sir, it's an encrypted email, I don't think we can trace it." Jordan protested." Just do it." David growled.He needed to get to the hotel ASAP and check the room, there could be a clue to lead him to his wife.Twenty minutes later, the car pulled off at the pa
David was sitting in his office when Jordan entered with a sombre expression on his face." Did you get something from her?" He asked and Jordan regretfully shook his head." We didn't find anything helpful to find Madam. She is saying crazy things. They don't make sense at all." Jordan replied.David closed his eyes, leaned on his chair and let out a tired sigh.It's been eight months and he has been looking for Sheila everywhere yet he hasn't been able to find her. It's like she vanished into thin air." Jordan, tell me , do you think my wife will come back to me?" David asked and Jordan pressed his lips together. He didn't know what to say to his president.Ever since the Madam left, he has watched his president turn into a shell of his former self.She left without saying a word. According to the president, there were no issues between the two of them. They have exhausted all means Just to find her but nothing seems to work." Everyday, I don't Know what to tell my daughter when
It was early evening when Sheila and David arrived home. David had managed to convince Sheila to not head to work since it was already dark." Why don't we do something more interesting than working?" David suggested, pulling Sheila to sit on his laps. They were now Inside their bedroom with David seated at the edge of the bed."Like what?" Sheila asked, wiggling her hips so that her bottom brushed his crotch."I don't know... anything. You name it." David replied, his lips twitched with anticipation.Sheila stared at her husband in surprise. It had been a while since they had sex, but it wasn't because they were no longer in love. It was just that they both had too much work to do and now with Sheila being pregnant, David didn't want to put much stress on her."So you're up for it?" Sheila asked, her hands instinctively moving to her stomach as it was starting to show the little bump."Well, let's see what your body says," David replied, grinning at Sheila.David reached out and unbu
" What do you think about this one?" Sheila asked, showcasing her green backless dress. The two of them were preparing to attend the launching of the new jewelry by Blake Shelton's company." Too revealing " David stated plainly, his eyes narrowing at Sheila's exposed Milky skin at the back." Too revealing? Are you kidding me? This is a backless dress and this is its design." Sheila complained." What's wrong with you? You seem to have a problem with everything I wear." This was the ninth dress and still, David had something negative to say about it." If you want me to walk naked, you might as well tell me." She complained.She was getting tired, not to mention the event was going to start in less than an hour. As one of the invited guests and Blake's junior, how could she afford to be late?But with David's actions of refusing each and every dress she tried, they were surely going to be late.Without a word, David walked to the wardrobe and retrieved a purple maternity dress. He th
