Arianna took Genesis home. The latter sobbed. She kept sniffling. She should have known that Richard had been having affairs with her. He asked him and he said they didn't do anything together in Spain. She sheepishly believed him. If she hadn't come over and caught him red handed, he would still deny it. Why did Richard do this to her? She loves him. She'd never cheated in relationships but her men always leave her. She's tired now, very tired. "You'll be alright, Gene, I promise you" Arianna consoled her. She felt pity for her. She looked devastated. Her bruised temple was still hurting her and now her heart was hurting her more than the bruises. Why did her brother do this to her friend? Richard doesn't look like he wasn't in love with Genesis. Until that bitch appeared. Until she came with her scheme and splitted them apart. "How can I be? I lody Analdo to another woman. Now Richard is in love with another woman and cheated on me. I don't think I will be
A strong woman Richard paused. He turned back and glanced at his parents. They are fighting, his Mom never loses her temper like this. She yelled at his dad? Oh God, what has he done? His parents are fighting now because of him. What has he done, what has he brought upon his family. First, it was Genesis. Then it became Arianna. Now his parents. He fell out with those that mattered to him. He remained at that point, staring at the coldness between them. He saw his dad, simply walked away and left. His Mom turned and watched his retreating back view as she started sobbing. She glanced at Richard and her tears ran down her cheeks. What had she done that Adrian took out his fury on her? She just wanted to relax the tense atmosphere between a father and his son. In what way had she committed an offended in doing so? Why did Adrian blame her for Richard's misbehaviour? What on earth is wrong with this son of hers? Richard came back downstairs and wanted to c
Arianna arrived at the cemetery. She saw her Dad. She alighted and walked towards him "dad" she said, beaming with smile. She's happy, they both can be left alone by themselves. "Arianna," Adrian Delmark said, standing up and pulling Arianna into a hug. He hugged her and kissed her hair before asking her to sit on the tomb, next to him. "How's my mom?" Arianna asked and Adrian smiled. She asked as if Susan was a living being, sitting by him all day. "Susan is fine I know. I've been with her since morning and I feel she's around me. I feel her presence and my pained heart seemed to get relieved. "She probably might be happy to have you around her. You're the only man she loved" Arianna said, glancing at the tomb, and running her hand over the white granite. "Probably" Adrian said and glanced at Arianna with a smile. Susan was an amazing woman to have had his daughter then. Back then she wanted a part of him in her. He gave in and made love to her and s
She smiled and went to hug him from behind. Jace and Eli were placing computer game. The both sat on the floor like two play mates. She kissed Jace's nood and went upstairs. The two didn't say anything beyond one syllable word each "welcome" they don't want to be distracted. She went in and had a shower. She came downstairs and had dinner together. Jace seemed not to be interested in saying anything to her. Few hours later, Eli nanny came, it's time for him to go to his room. He told his parents goodnight and left. It was only Arianna and Jace that was left. Jace stood up and went upstairs and Arianna did the same thing. As soon as she went in, she shut the door. "How long are you going to keep ignoring me?" Arianna demanded. Why is Jace still upset with what has happened since the previous day. "Who is ignoring you!" Jace snapped at her. He glared at her with an expressionless face. "You" Arianna said and climbed into the bed. Jace sat at the
Adrian Delmark saw the car and smiled. Why wouldn't he get himself busy, rather than trailing his car? He would give him a piece of his mind. When they arrived at Abby Santiago's mansion, it was large and beautiful. The securities came around and requested for the identity of the one who wants to get in. Adrian Delmark rolled down the glass and said "Senator Adrian Delmark" And rolled up the glasses again. They were immediately allowed passage and Arianna smiled. If it hadn't been that she's been opportuned to dine with those that matters in the society, she never would have been able to get past the gate of Abby Santiago. Adrian Delmark alighted and carried his grandson. Arianna stepped out of the car and walked over with her dad. Abby was in his bed room. He was watching the CCTV camera when he was told that Senator Adrian Delmark was there to see him. He was expecting him. The latter had told him they needed to dine together as old friends. He descen
Arianna met with her grandmother. It was an exciting moment together. The Santiago family was excited to have Arianna with them. They had dinner together and soon, Adrian Delmark announced that they were leaving. Abby Santiago gave Arianna a box of jewellery and gave Eli a golden wristwatch for kids. As Abby see them off, he asked "Arianna what do you think, your dad or I, who is actually qualified for the office of the Prime minister?" Arianna smiled, her hand intertwined with her uncle's "my dad. That is not negotiable. He had been a Senator twice and had a good record of honestly, transparency and excellent leadership skills. But you uncle Abby, you are a renowned business man. You've never been in a leadership position, we don't have an idea about your leadership skills and competency in that office. And being a business man, what else can you probably be after if it's not business. The heart of a business man is to amass a lot of net profits and get back the
Arianna squinted. She turned and glared at Richard. The latter looked away. Then she turned and glanced at Jane, who pouted her lips and stared at her son with a disapproved glance. "You invited me over for something else and not just for the sharing a breakfast with you?" Arianna asked, glancing at her stepmother. "Yes. But we'll have breakfast first" Jane Delmark replied and held her hand and they came to the dinning table together. Throughout the breakfast, Richard kept throwing glances at Arianna. Suddenly he asked "Arianna, you know our dad hasn't been home for days now, right?" Arianna dropped her cutleries and glared at Richard. "Yes, I know," she responded. She could guess where Richard was heading. "And you are spending time with him without pleading with him to return home. Mom is worried about dad and you are not concerned about mom, right?" Richard reprimanded. "On the contrary, I still talked about coming home to dad last night. He told me he
"It means you are not leaving. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. You misunderstood me Adrian. But not coming home this few days is really hurting me. Let's make up. We can't be having this misunderstanding while our kids watch us. What kind of example are we showing them. Please my love, I'm sorry for hurting you in any way possible" Jane apologised. "I am no longer hurt Jane. But I don't want to be with you and Richard for now" Adrian declared. "Are you hurting me because of Richard? It has always been you and I before Richard came. Why should you punish me because of him? You know what, Richard is just like you. Two stubborn men and I find myself in the middle. Why are you punishing me, Adrian?" Jane pleaded. She tiptoed and kissed Adrian, circling her hands around his neck. The two lovers were soon kissing each other passionately. "Fine. If you also choose not to believe me, then there's nothing I can do about it. But if you can, help me have a meet
