Dan was in slight disbelief that Bruce didn't make it hard for him. He stuttered a little, "Y-yes. That's all. Once you do that then you can have her,” He managed to continue with his act without being shocked as he snickered with a sly smile on his lips.

"No problem. Come to my company tomorrow with the papers for a meeting with the board of directors and then I will sign them once we all have come to a conclusion,” Bruce instructed.

"But..”

"No buts. Come over if you need it. And stay back if you don't.” Turning to Stacy who stood timidly with her head bowed beside him. "Here is a pen. Sign it then you and Cherry will be driven home by Charles,” Bruce smiled and Stacy managed to raise her head, returning the smile with lots of thoughts running through her mind.

How could she ever thank her Boss enough for his help? What would have happened if he hadn't been there to save her from the traumatizing future her dad was pushing her into? Was Bruce Yates making a wrong decision b

    "Yes, Daddy! I'm going to be a good girl!” Cherry felt happy to finally have Aunt Stacy as her new Mummy. Bruce smiled, pinching Cherry on her cheeks and she let out a giggle. "Naughty Daddy,” She laughed, and Mr. Yates chuckled. "Daddy is a naughty lad when he is sweet right?” "Yes, he is,” Cherry giggled even louder, "He is a naughty sweet boy,” Cherry muttered, playing with Daisy’s fur with one hand as Daisy rested on her lap. Daisy barked at Bruce happily. "You see? Daisy agrees with me, haha,” She laughed. "Yeah yeah. You both have such a weird relationship. I wonder how you know what she says sometimes,” Bruce chortled as he shook his head. "By the way, I'm off to work and I'll be back very early today for my princess's sake. Remember your promise. Don't disturb mummy, okay?” "I won't disturb mummy. You don't have to repeat it to me. I have perfectly functioning ears,” Cherry rolled her eyes. Her Dad could be so bothersome at times.

    Daisy ran after them, barking with her little pink tongue out as chased them from behind. She seemed to also be thrilled. Cherry pressed a button on the side of the door and pressed her fingerprint on the sensor then a beeped sound was heard from the door as it slid open. Stacy was left feeling overwhelmed by the interior’s beauty. "Mr. Yates is very capable of owning this and it shouldn't be shocking to me but why am I feeling awestruck and stunned about it? Is it perhaps because it's beyond my expectations? Damn Stacy! You need not be surprised,” "Come let me show you to your room and then the kitchen,” Cherry didn't give Stacy a chance to breathe and pulled her up the glass stairs but suddenly halted. A slender figure leaned effortlessly on the wall at the top of the staircase. His eyelids closed, his dark long dreadlocks were damp over his forehead and his hands crossed over his chest. "Where are you heading to with that thing, little brat?” He drawled tiredly wit

    "Granny! Stop pulling my mummy’s hair! Stop it, granny!” Cherry pleaded as she tried hard to pull her granny’s hand from Stacy’s hair but her granny was way too strong for her little hand. "Edward,” She called through gritted teeth. " Take Cherry into her room and lock her up in there,” Cherry’s granny instructed. Edward with a satisfactory smile grabbed Cherry’s little form and threw her over his shoulder effortlessly as he walked away. Daisy stood her ground in the center of the sitting room, barking fiercely at Edward to release her beloved friend, Cherry. Anxious for Cherry's safety, Daisy's concern was evident, yet she hesitated to approach the menacing Edward, fearing the consequences of crossing paths with such an individual. She knew all too well that getting too close to him could result in becoming his next meal and dinner for the night. She wasn't willing to take that risk when Cherry wasn't around to save her. "And you,” She pointed at Stacy’s delicate face

    The thunder rumbled and a silver lightning struck across the sky above her weak form reflecting on her wet glass skin. At the terrace of the luxurious glass mansion, Edward and his mother stood there, grinning from ear to ear in satisfaction, relaxing on the railings as they watched the heavy downpour of rain hitting the delicate, fragile lady they had thrown outside the estate as she trembled under the rain. "Come inside, son. It's getting really cold out here. I won't like it if you catch a cold,” She smiled lovingly at her son, urging him to go inside in concern for his health. Edward let out a chuckle. "You can go in first. I'll follow soon,” Edward said and his mother let out a sigh. "Fine then. But don't stay out here too long,” "Rest assured momma,” He smirked as he brushed his dreads backward away from his face. Once his mom was inside he turned his icy gaze to the woman outside who was shivering under the heavy downpour of rain. The satisfactory smile on hi

    "What?!” Olivia snapped her dark gaze at the massively intimidating man before her. "Olivia! Olivia! Olivia!!! What the hell do you want from me, Bruce?! Do I have your kidney with me or something?” "I spoke to you and Edward not to do anything stupid. Not to mistreat Cherry’s new mother but you proceeded to go against me. You did the complete opposite of our agreement, Olivia. Do my words mean nothing to you guys?” "And so?” Oliver scoffed, rolling her eyes unbotheredly. "And so what if we agreed on some stupid deal? The dirty low-class thing you brought here…I don't like it. So I told the bodyguard to trash it away outside the estate and also clean up the misfortune it spilled in here. I can't live in the same house with a bag of trash,” "If you can't live in the same house with her then I suggest you pack your things and leave. You were never wanted here in the first place and the doors have always been wide open for you to take your luggage and leave my residence,” "How

    "So don't dare lay your hand on Daisy or else I'll cry my eyeballs out and no one would have rest in this house till I have my Daisy back!” Cherry threatened in a serious tone, pouting her little lips as her face wrinkled into a deep frown which made Edward and Olivia chuckle! "Such a spoiled little bratty,” Edward tried to pinch her cheeks but Cherry stepped away from his touch. "Don't touch me. I don't like you and Granny at all! You hurt my new mummy and now she's gone missing. I won't forgive the both of you if she ends up not returning back home!” Cherry screamed and ran up the stairs in tears. It took a lot of persuasion and plea to make her Dad accept her request for a new mummy but now her own granny and uncle had chased her new mummy away even before they could spend quality time together. She felt hurt cause she was unable to do anything to help her mother and feared that Stacy might not return back home. **** "What are we going to do with her?” a man asked,

    Mathews's brows wrinkled when he noticed the tiny droplets of sweat forming on Stacy’s pale skin. "Why is she sweating? There's so much cold due to the rain but yet she's sweating? Is she sick or something?“ Mathew wondered aloud. He pressed the back of his palm on Stacy’s forehead and suddenly exclaimed in a shocked tone. "Her head is so hot, could she have caught a fever under the rain?” He didn't expect her to catch a cold cause he and Ray were there watching from the side of the empty street in the estate when one of the Yates's bodyguards threw her out and they only waited for a few minutes to make sure no one was watching before they carried her way. "Let's sell her off before she dies here. We don't have any reserved money to spend on her treatment. It's best we contact Mr. Smith now so she can be sold and then we get paid,” "Okay," Mathew nodded, reaching for his small, barely functioning button phone and dialing Mr. Smith's number. "Good afternoon Mr. Smith! It's

    A bedspread was flung over Stacy’s body, covering up her revealing skin. Ray was yet to wrap his head around what just happened when he let out a screeching cry, his cry high pitch in comparison with the thunder sounds. "Ahh!! Jesus! Please please please you're going to break it if you don't stop,” his fingers cracked back looking horrifying and hideous by the way his fingers were dislocated and broken into two and he was also flung across the room effortlessly like he weighed nothing. "Who the hell are you?” Ray croaked in a pained tone and before his eyes lightning flashed across the room. The lighting highlighted the penetrating gaze of the intruder. His gaze was terrifying and dangerous at the same time like he was ready to kill and rip off every head from the shoulder of anyone who wronged him with no atom of remorse. Tremors of fear ran through Ray’s body. Recognizing the massive and deadly airs oozing from the figure before him, Ray could not help but stutter as he stu

    Stacy just glared at him. "What? it's not like I believed him, did I?" Bruce defended then moved his gaze around the sitting room. "And why isn't Eddie around here?" He asked, suspecting that she might be up to something. "I told the guards to throw her out of the estates. She's doing too much and I can't accept it any longer. I've taken more than I can chew," Stacy snorted, twitching the side of her lips as she folded her arms over her chest. Bruce walked over to Stacy in slow and calculated steps that Stacy had to look up at him, wondering what he wanted to do. " Wh_what?" She stuttered and Bruce swiftly wrapped his hand around her waist, pulling her closer to his chest. "You did a good job by taking out the trash, little birdie," He smirked, leaning closer to her ear. Vanessa glared at the couple romancing before her, her eyes full of hate and jealousy. He had taken everything from her and now he was about to imprison her on top of that? Who does that?!

    "Bring her In,” Bruce commanded. One of the police who didn't handcuff anyone went outside and informed his team using a hand sign then he returned to the sitting room. "She is coming,” He informed with a bow. Stacy saw Bruce nodding and soon she saw someone getting pulled into the sitting room by another police officer like she was some sort of criminal and her jaw dropped to the ground! Exact features, exact eyes, exact hair color, and style! The only difference was that the clothes she had on were worn out and looked ragged. Edward's feet staggard back in disbelief. "This can't be true. There's no way she would be the one I fell in love with. She can't be the one,” He whispered to himself, his gaze fixed on her as he shook his head. Edward refused to believe cause the girl he knew back in school didn't look this ragged. She was well-kept and was a good girl who was barely noticed but he did the moment he bumped into her in the hallway when she was in tears. How

    Everyone listened to it attentively. * "Bruce, I can't live on like this. I love you. I've always loved you from the beginning! That's why I decided to date Edward, at least that way I'll get a chance to speak to you once at least because I never had a chance to speak to you," CShe confessed, her breath coming out shakily. "I have always loved you right from when we were little but I am just a girl no one took notice of. Just a girl behind the wall and when someone finally did, I did not. I do not Love Edward Yates. I love you, Bruce. It's you I want and love. I can do anything to make you believe me. I can strip myself right before you if that's what you need to see before you believe me, Bruce Yates," her voice begged desperately and for some seconds there wasn't anyone responding to her "I do not love you neither would I do so after you strip yourself. I love someone else and it's only her that I will keep loving," Bruce told her to her face genuinely."You should have some

    * * * * After dropping Cherry off at school, it was already noon and she needed to pick her up before the bell rang for closing. Stacy headed upstairs to get her purse as she made a call to Bruce's line for God knows how many times now with no answer from him. She kept calling every time and now she was about to pick Cherry up from school but he was yet to answer his calls. "What's wrong? Why hasn't he been picking up?" Stacy's face was wrinkled as she glared at the screen of her phone. She was bothered about his whereabouts and worried about his well-being. "He should at least pick up and let me know that he is doing good rather than getting me so worked up!" Stacy grumbled, making another call to his which was yet ignored again with no answer. "Pick up the damned phone, Bruce!" Stacy yelled out at the screen, venting her anger and worry on the phone by the way she angrily held it. She climbed up the final stairs and was about to make a right turn when she b

    "Where did he go? Wasn’t he here last night?” Stacy gasped, wondering why he wasn't on the bed and it was still very early in the morning. A knock on the door caught her attention and she moved her gaze to the door. "Mummy? Daddy? I've been knocking, why aren't you guys answering the door?” Cherry’s little voice caught Stacy’s ears as Cherry kept knocking on the door, outside the room. She immediately got down from the bed and was about to answer the door when she noticed how rough her hair was the moment her gaze brushed past the mirror. The rough night Bruce had with her replayed harshly in her mind. How could Bruce have left the room just like that without saying anything to her? Or was she thinking too much about it? She blinked her eyes three times, moving the memory and everything concerning Bruce to the back of her mind for the time being, and quickly combed through her hair, fixing the out-of-place strands of her hair. "Mummy?!” Cherry screamed and banged h

    "I_i...I do," Her voice came out shakily that she couldn't tell him that she didn't want him. Or perhaps she did. She did miss him, his breath against her sensitive skin, his touch, the way his tongue played on her skin. She missed him a lot in these few hours while he was away, spending his time with Eddie. She just wished she could find out the reason why he was hurting her so much. He hurt her at first and now he was getting close to her like nothing happened before. Why should she let him her close to her again after what he did? He should pay for it. He must pay for it! "You do, huh?" Bruce smirked and slammed the door next to them shut with one of his hands, then twisted the key till it got locked as his gaze remained on Stacy, keeping her in place. "Then why bother to pull away from me when you know you want the same from me? Isn't that being inconsiderate? Being selfish when you know I need you? and miss you so badly? huh?" Bruce confessed as he whispered again aga

    "What? How can cockroaches be in here?" Bruce frowned. Eddie hid behind him instantly. "Don't ask me those damned questions! How would I know? First, it was ants, and now cockroaches? What the heck is up with your room?” Eddie asked. “I don't know. It's never been like this,” "What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say all these insects started coming Into your room ever since I came here? Huh?” Eddie asked, glaring at Bruce. "I didn't say anything like that but if you take it that way, it might be true,” Bruce shrugged his shoulders. "I will call the guard to come and clean up the room so you can have some sleep. I might also have to hire another maid to clean up-” "Sleep where? So another type of insect can climb up my body? I can't sleep here, Bruce. I won't sleep in this scary room filled with all sorts of insects!” Eddie suddenly screamed when she felt a cockroach crawl up her feet. "Kill it! Kill it! Kill it!” She screamed but Bruce was confused about what h

    An unknown knock was heard on their door and Bruce moved his gaze to the transparent door but could not see who was outside his room due to the way the glass was built. Eddie looked at him and then at the door, she knew that there were only two people who could come to Bruce's room by this time, knocking on his door. "Those witches won't let me enjoy my time here," She whispered under her breath, her eyes full of annoyance. Bruce was about to get up from the bed when she beat him to it. "I will check," She said you him gently and Bruce relaxed back. "Who is at the door?" Eddie asked as she walked to the door and opened it. There was no one before her till she moved her gaze downwards and saw the blonde-haired girl she had expected. She frowned her face at the sight of her before throwing questions at Cherry's face. "What do you want?" Eddie asked but the moment Cherry opened her mouth to answer her questions, she threw another."Shouldn't you be sleeping in your room

    Eddie froze midway through her facade as she frowned and pouted her lips at Bruce. "Such a grumpy man. He can't even feed a pregnant lady who is in pain," She complained with a sneer on her lips. "I know that I am not pregnant but what if I was pregnant for him?! Could this have been the way he would have ignored me like I am a nobody all in the name of he is sleepy and tired?" Eddie rolled her eyes. "Douchebag!" She cussed him and sighed. "Goodness! I have to think of something really quick." She thought as she averted her gaze to his broad back that was faced against her. A few moments later_ "Oww!!" A loud cry erupted In the room. "I need water, please. My belly is hurting so bad! Our baby is in danger," The annoying cry pierced into Bruce's ears and he grumbled. "The heck is she up to now?" He almost yelled out. Shutting his eyes tightly, he remembered that damned man who forced him to do this.
