" That's impossible. She is such a nice girl, how can she do that?" Old madam Brown was shocked by the revelation made my David. If David wasn't his grandson, he would doubt that he was making things up. David was the person she trusted most, she knew there will nevedyve a day he will lie to her. Despite that, it was hard for her to accept the fact that the Sweet girl Laura she loved and adored was the same person who orchestrated the accident that claimed Sandra's life." Grandma, even with the evidence at hand, you still want to deny the truth? " David asked, his voice plain. He had anticipated that reaction from his grandmother, after all, Laura had managed to fool her into believing that she was a good girl. " It's just unbelievable, I thought… "" Well she had you fooled. She is an evil and conniving woman. She tried harming my wife during a party. Luckily, My wife fought back or I don't know what would have happened." David informed." She did what?" Grandma's eyes widbedtin su
" Congratulations girl, I can't believe you are now pregnant." Vanessa gushed, hugging Sheila tightly.It was over the weekend and the two couples had arranged to go out to the beach." Thanks dear but I'm really worried." Sheila replied, looking at David who was walking along the beach with Gabriel. The two seemed to be in a serious conversation." Come on dear, you know that he loves you." Vanessa advised. She knew about Sheila's plan of using the child in her belly to save Lily." Keeping the truth from him is like betraying him, Vanessa. Everytime, I feel like I'm carrying a heavy load and it's suffocating me. " Sheila spoke. She didn't doubt David's love for her but regardless, she knew that her betrayal would hurt him.She would be hurt too if David kept something so serious from her.She would have a hard time forgiving him. What Sheila didn't know was that David kept an even bigger secret from her." If you can't bear it anymore, just tell him the truth, girlfriend. They say
Gabriel pushed Vanessa against the door before claiming her lips with his own. He kissed her with such passion that Vanessa was taken aback.As they made out, Vanessa had her arms around his neck, her fingers running through his short black hair.Gabriel pulled away, his head resting on her neck as he inhaled her scent." Honey, when are we having a child or our own?" He murmured into her ears making Vanessa smile.So, he was this passionate after hearing about the news of Sheila's pregnancy." You want us to have a baby?" she purred and Gabriel nodded immediately. He has always Loved having children but restrained himself from bringing the matter up. His previous relationship ended because his girlfriend not only cheated on him and didn't want anything to do with children.He has always desired to be a father but his desire did not exceed his want to keep Vanessa around. Ofcourse, if she wasn't ready, he would understand and give her the time until she was ready to make him a father.
" What you are saying is, you want to invite me to your new product launching?" Sheila asked, just to be sure. " Well yes, don't you want to come? " Blake replied." Of course I want to come. I feel honoured to be invited. I'll be there for sure. " Sheila acknowledged." Alright then, I'll send a formal invitation to your husband. '' Blake informed her. After chatting for some time, they bid goodbye to each other.Today was the day Vanessa was leaving country A with Gabriel. They were flying to country B, Gabriel's home country to visit his parents. As her friend was taking such a big step in her life, Sheila decided to see her off at the airport to wish her good luck.David, who had become extra caring ever since she became pregnant, insisted on tagging along. Sheila could only agree reluctantly. She loved David but his degree of overprotectiveness was starting to get on her nerves." I'll Just send her off, you don't need to accompany me everywhere." She had said to David, hoping
" 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
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
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
" 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
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
