Isabella got into her car and drove behind Angelo as he led the way to where his sister was. Isabella thought that Angelo wanted them to party and have a happy occasion since she had won against Hamzat and his sister had survived her sickness.Meanwhile, back at the hospital, Angelo's sister was celebrating the fact that she had stopped Angelo from going to help Isabella and she must have lost her hospital to Hamzat. This was definitely going to affect their relationship and a few more misunderstandings later, they were sure to part ways.Her happiness was short-lived when she received Hamzat's call. Hamzat was so upset with her and said, "I regret ever listening to you. You deceived me, you witch. You made me plot to take Isabella's hospital when you knew it wasn't possible. If you had told me that she was already married, I would not have ended up the way I have, today. You used me for your own gain and I hope you get what's coming."When Hamzat hung up, she stared at her phone in s
Angelo asked the officers to take Christy away. She tried to run around him and out of the room but the officers caught her before she could get to the door.As she was being dragged out of the room, she screamed, "please Angelo, don't let them take me away. I love you so much, I love you more than Isabella ever would. Please, Angelo, I will do anything for you."Angelo and Isabella stared at Christy as she kept screaming hysterically until she was taken outside. He heaved a sigh of relief and stared at Isabella who was still surprised by everything that had just happened.Angelo pulled her closer and hugged her, "I'm sorry for all the pain you went through because of Christy. I promise that I will never again let even her shadow cast over you."Isabella smiled, "thank you so much, Angelo. As long as I have you in my life, I know that I do not have to worry about anyone else trying to harm me.""Come with me," Angelo said. "I have a surprise for you." Isabella was suddenly very excite
Angelo began to take off his clothes while Isabella stared at him. She felt so overwhelmed that when he turned his back on her, she quickly hugged him from behind, "Angelo, I just realized that I never got to say thank you."Angelo turned and stared at her with a smile on his face. He cupped her cheeks and asked, "my love, why do you feel the need to thank me? I love you more than anything else in this world so I should be the one thanking you for filling my life with colors."A tear slipped from one of her eyes but Angelo wiped it off with his thumb while Isabella said, "I can still remember the first time I saw you, Angelo. It was back in Panama and you came to my dad's ward at Mato Hospital. I hated you so much and would have ripped your heart out if I could.When I got married to you at the marriage court, I gave up hope on ever experiencing a marriage of love. I thought I will never be happy. I thought I would be miserable for the rest of my life especially when you made me belie
Angelo and Isabella left the cabin and went to Isabella's house early so they could move her things to Angelo's house. Mirabella was so excited to see them. She had spent the night with her grandparents who were also happy to see that Isabella finally had a complete family.Isabella's parents said they were leaving the next day so they stayed back in Isabella's house while Isabella and Mirabella moved their luggage to Angelo's house.Angelo had decorated the house with scented color candles and love-shaped balloons. Both Isabella and Mirabella were so excited when they saw it. Angelo hung up an inscription on the wall that read, "welcome home, princesses."After showing Mirabella to her room, Angelo helped both mother and daughter settle in before taking them out for lunch. After having lunch, Isabella insisted that she wanted to go to the hospital but Angelo said, "no, I think you should rest today and go after a few days. Remember that we are on our honeymoon."Mirabella looked at A
Angelo kept chasing after Hamzat but there were a few cars between them. He realized that Hamzat was driving to his house and drove there as well.When Hamzat parked his car, he quickly opened the door and let Isabella out. She happily held on to his arm while he said, "I just need you to sign a few documents for me, okay?"Isabella nodded and hugged him right in front of his house. He took out his keys from his pocket and was about to open the door when she held his face and began to kiss him.Angelo's car arrived at this time and he was shocked at the scene before him. Mirabella had also woken up from sleep and was surprised when she saw her mum kissing Hamzat.Hamzat heard the sound of Angelo's car and quickly ended the kiss. He fumbled with the keys as he tried to select the right one to unlock the door while Angelo who had come out of the car ran toward him.Isabella couldn't be bothered with Angelo and kept staring at Hamzat. He finally unlocked the door and held Isabella's hand
Angelo opened his eyes and saw Isabella's parents standing in front of him with Mirabella in Mrs. Monte's arms. Her eyes were red from crying and Angelo felt his heart break as he saw the dried-up tears on her face because he knew she must have gotten a big fright.As he sat upright on the bed, he felt a slight pain on the back of his head but ignored it and took Mirabella from her granny's arms as she moved closer to him. Mirabella stared at Angelo without a word while he hugged her and kissed her cheeks, "I told you not to cry anymore, baby. Your daddy is strong and so is your mummy and we both love you very much."He smiled at his inlaws and asked, "where is my wife?"Mr. Monte sat on a chair beside Angelo and sighed in relief. They had been so worried when both Isabella and Angelo lay unconscious in different wards. It had been incredibly difficult getting Mirabella to quiet down and stop crying but now that Angelo was up, they both felt relieved."Isabella is still lying unconsci
About an hour later, Angelo had a conference meeting with the specialist as well as the doctor who sat beside him. The specialist said, "well, I'm sorry, Mr. Flores but your wife's condition is indeed a very serious one. Yes, there are a few cases where patients have been able to come out from such deadly hypnotism but they are very rare. However, as the doctor may have already told you, whoever put your wife under his control has to be the one to calm her down so, you probably have to get in touch with him one way or another and let him remind her that you are her husband as well as everything else. For now, we can start from there."Angelo shook his head, "there's no way I am letting my wife go near that bastard. I am definitely going to kill him.""That would be a mistake," the specialist replied. "We do not know the effect his death would have on her, she might end up harming herself if she learns of his death so you need to tread with caution because right now, he is the only o
Angelo waited for Hamzat to be made conscious before going to stand in front of him again. As he stared at Angelo, Hamzat spat out blood from his mouth and began to laugh at him, "go ahead and kill me, Mr. Flores. No matter what you do, it will not change the fact that only I can control Isabella now. There's no need for you to be so sad or feel hopeless, I can order her to love you if you so desire."Angelo gritted his teeth in anger and balled his fist as he listened to Hamzat's words. Seeing how angry Angelo was with his one eye that wasn't covered in blood, made Hamzat laugh even harder, "no matter how upset you get, Angelo, you can't kill me. All I ask for is the hospital, it is nothing compared to how much money you have. You can also add some money for my stress.Mr. Flores, you both forced my hand otherwise, I would not have gone this far. It would be in your best interest to treat me well because Isabella will only do what I tell her and I can even order her to be your slave
Paige stared at the people in the audience, observing the different expressions on their faces. Some felt pity for her, some laughed at her, while others booed and gestured with their thumbs down. As tears streamed down her face, the other girls continued to sing, and no one waited for her. After Candy; the fourth person, finished singing, the first girl resumed. Paige's microphone had already been rolled away from where she stood. Unable to bear the shame any longer, she turned around and ran away from the stage. Candy smiled, feeling victorious, and said inwardly, "Now let me see how you will be among the top two."Paige did not stop running until she reached outside. Fearing that people might notice her and start pointing fingers at her, she searched for a quiet and hidden spot, finding solace leaning on a pillar. She covered her face with her hands and continued to cry, recalling how she had assured Mr. Zachary that she would not fail him. She felt even more disappointed in her
For Paige, everything seemed to be happening so fast. Just this morning, she was being called a thief and kicked out of her house. And now, she was going to be performing on a show tonight. She pinched herself to be sure she wasn't dreaming, and Jessica, who was staring at her, smiled, "Come on, let's go change your wardrobe.""Thank you very much, Sir," Paige said, wiping the joyous tears which had formed in her eyes."Don't worry about that. Just get ready to perform." Zach said.As Paige walked out, Zach stared at her, recalling his old days. His story seemed similar to hers as he had also been given a chance by someone he never expected. While they went shopping, Jessica asked Paige, "Are you related to Mr. Zach? I mean, he did say you're someone who belonged to him."Paige didn't know Jessica's relationship with Zach, so she didn't want to speak too much. She only said, "He's just helping me.""Come on, Mr. Zach doesn't help people just like that. I mean, everyone knows who he i
Paige sang for Zachary while he stood in awe, mesmerized by her performance. As she sang, she became so immersed that she closed her eyes and continued to pour her heart out. Zachary walked over to the bed, sat down, and kept his gaze fixed on her. When she finished singing, he exclaimed, "Wow! That was phenomenal.""Thank you, sir," Paige replied with a smile."I'm curious, how did you become such a talented singer? Don't worry, you can share it with me," he added, noticing her hesitation.Paige sighed and began her story, "Well, my mom was a gifted singer too. When she was young, her dream was to become a pop artist and her voice was perfect. However, her father, who was a billionaire, wanted her to take over the family business instead since she was his only child. She had to make a difficult choice between her passion and her responsibilities. Eventually, she took over my grandfather's company: Blanco Industries, but she never gave up singing. She recorded songs for herself but
"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir," Paige said. "Please, I want to ask for a favor.""What is it?" Zach asked."I will like to see you, please." She replied.Zach stared at all the men who were sitting in front of him and said, "Okay, I'll be right there."Getting up, he continued, "I think we've pretty much said everything that needed to be said at this meeting. I approve of your findings and now, I need implementation and results. Excuse me."After leaving the meeting room, Zach said to Luke, "Let's go back to the hospital."His assistant was surprised; Zach wasn't acting like himself. No one knew why he was being so kind and accommodating towards this girl. When they arrived at the hospital, he went in to see her. The moment Zach entered the room, Paige jumped off the bed in surprise and stared at him as her hands began to tremble. She instantly recognized him and who wouldn't? He was one of the wealthiest men in London and everyone said he was very ruthless. How could it be that thi
Zachary Fletcher stepped out of his palatial villa which was a stunning testament to his success and refined taste. Nestled in a picturesque location; Zach Estate, Mayfair was one of the most luxurious estates in London. His domestic staff lavished Zach with greetings but he merely nodded curtly and approached his Bugatti without noticing that his housekeeper and chef were staring at him longingly through the windows. His chauffeur, Tony, quickly ran and opened the back of his car, and after Zach sat down, Tony got into the front and began driving to Zachary Fletcher Conglomerate. On his way to the company, Zach made a phone call to his assistant, Luke, and asked, "Are you at the office?""Yes, sir," Luke replied."Good," Zach said and hung up.The moment he stepped out of his car, he began to make his way into the iconic skyscraper building. The CEO's personal office was on the highest floor. It was the only office on that floor and the most spacious in the building; offering panor
Paige Summers busied herself as she moved about, trying to ensure that all the guests were well cared for.She had been working since morning to make sure everything was perfect. It was the eighth-anniversary party of her father and stepmother. She wanted to be anywhere but there, but her father had warned that if she did not stay behind to take care of his guests, there would be dire consequences. As she moved around, serving the guests, they kept calling her here and there, and some even mistook her for the maid of the house. When she thought it was finally time for her to rest, her stepsister, Candy came out dressed in a beautiful, red, Valentino gown. One would think that it was her anniversary party judging by how much time she took to doll herself up.Once Candy was out, Paige began to hear different voices saying, "Wow! She looks like an angel!" "She's the daughter of Mr. Summers." "I heard she's a singer; one of the spark girls." "Have you seen her gown? it's from a top br
"How is it possible that each time I close my eyes, your face is the only thing I see? How do I tell you that when you are not with me, I get lovesick? How do I tell you that every second of my life is filled with thoughts of you? How do I tell you, Mr. Zach, that I have fallen head over heels in love with you?" - Paige ~~~~~~~ "From the moment I saw you, you became my reason for breathing. Even when darkness engulfs me, I only have to take one look at you and my world becomes bright again. I cannot live in a world without you in it. I love you, My Little Sunshine." - Zach. ~~~~~~~ They all said Zachary Fletcher was proud, ruthless, and callous but when eighteen years old Paige Summers was accused, disgraced, and left to die in the cold, Zach took her home and promised, "I will make you a star!" From that moment, she became his world. STORY TITLE; MY LITTLE SUNSHINE
NOVAEverything that was happening was like a big dream. My life's dream was coming true, and I felt so happy in a way I had never been before. Ella wouldn't understand how I was feeling, and to be honest, I regretted reconciling her with my dad. Her parents were together, and if I were in her shoes and trying to come between her mother and father, she would have made a big deal out of it and probably let the whole world know about it. So she ought to understand that I wanted my family to be together.I'd seen my dad suffer for years, from when I was a child to when I grew up and understood what was happening. He had mourned the loss of my mom for such a long time. Now that she was back, they had to rekindle whatever they had in the past, and probably he would get married to her, and we'd be one big family. This was what I wanted, but Ella wanted to ruin it. However, I put her in her place. My dad didn't disappoint me also. He was the best father in the world. He had been so amazing i
ELLAAfter listening to Nova's mother's phone conversation, I quickly ran to my car and drove out of the compound. I didn't know if she heard me drive out or if she realized that I had eavesdropped on her conversation, but one thing was sure: I needed to do something fast. I went to school and saw Nova. I stared at her, and it occurred to me to tell her about what I had heard, but then I changed my mind. There was no way she would take me seriously, considering the fact that she rolled her eyes at me when I looked at her, and she completely ignored me. When Aiden saw our interactions, he walked up to me and asked, "Are you and Nova fighting or something?" I shook my head, "No, we're cool. Thanks, Aiden." After that, I focused on what I had to do in school. Then after school, I left.I first went to a bar, which was strange, because I went alone. I had a bottle of alcohol. I needed it somehow; it was going to boost my morale for what I wanted to do. After drinking, I drove straigh
