Kimberly POV "B**ch!!! You could have called someone else since you were only going to joke with me Kim!" I heard no one else but Felicia voice yell making me run towards where I had heard the voice comes out from only to realize it was a video call. I must have mistakenly put a call through her while I thought I was only speaking to myself but unfortunately, I didn't know a third party has been invited into my conversation. " Christ! You should use some chill pill maybe by then you can cool down some nerves inside of you." I said while sitting up with my phone facing me. " Are you ready to open up or you are still going to have everything bolted in like you have always done?" She ask while look away from her. I wasn't even near ready to tell her anything about I and Maxwell yet cause it's complicated and would harm Maxwell if I did. Because a rich man hiding his illness from people as well as doctors, he must have a good reason to do so. And lately, I have been noticin
Kimberly POV Still seated on my bed debating either to answer who ever it is that's making a fuss on my door or placing a call through to her and apologize but then, I couldn't help but wonder who could be at the door this time around. Using the same remote to ask who was there while I increases the volume right from where I was seated so that I can ear what ever the person call his or her name but deep down, I was expecting it to scream that maid name 'jessica' but unfortunately, I heard some rumbling in there which only makes me wonder what's happening there. My mind kept on reading Maxwell might be the one there which could be the reason why I didn't eat anything. Jumping into a seating position immediately, I tapped on the open button while I began to wonder what could make him come home this early. Unlocking the door from where I was seated, his cousin head pop out of the entrance which only brought down my expectations. I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him while
Kimberly's POV Gisting and getting to know each other, in between Jessica brought snacks as I have ordered her to along with different fruit juice to quench our taste " You should go, am sure you have more to do rather than standing around here. Moreover your service is not needed. If needed, I would let you know." I said since she stood looking around everywhere whike I began to wonder what it's that she was standing around to do. " Hmm... But... I..." She started but I stopped her with just a glance from me. She knew too well to swallow up everything she has been keeping up inside of her same as whatever he was about to say. " Do you have anything else to say to me miss Jessica?" I I asked while she shook her head negatively making give her the first real smile ever. " Good girl, now you may go. If you are needed you will be called. Now leave will you?" I asked almost immediately while she bowed before existing my room using her back. " We should all have somet
Maxwell POV Even though I was marching my way down to my office, she kept thanking me till I was out of her sight and I couldn't hear her also. Checking behind me to confirm that I can't see her anymore and it did. I couldn't sight her anymore. Lately z I have been ashamed of being around ladies especially being caught alone with a lady mskes me wonder what the third person would think it's happening between us. But whenever am alone with Kimberly, it felt so right and heavenly that I wouldn't want and couldn't keep my hands to myself. They become inching all of a sudden that only by touching her could cure it. The only issue I think I have is having to confirm and tell people who she is to me. Don't get me wrong, I can say it to people that she is my fiancee but saying it with all might and proudness ti make them believe seems hard and torturing enough for me. But to people back at home, it's easy for me to say that to them with pride and joy since she is somewher
Maxwell POV I came face to face with my most hated human on earth. Staring at him as we both share that heated glance mixed with hatred in silence, I couldn't help but wonder why he had come down to this place just to deep his nose into my business which he wasn't invited to. "You can all leave now!" I yelled while everyone ran away without blinking twice. At this moment, my anger was beyond what I could condo neither can I control it. All I felt at this moment I want to have him and her neck pinned down while they beg struggling with their eyes pleading for help and mercy since their mouth has been sealed off with the way I held their neck in my hand. I want all of them pleading for mercy alone and nothing more then I can be able to decide their future with to let them live or to have them written off like they never existed to me in the past. It's so easy for me to live like they never existed to me from the past since that's how they had treated me before. " Won't you at
Maxwell POV Moment later The knock on my door brought me back to reality making me stumble upon the couch which I didn't realize I was standing beside for hours I could say. Searching for my phone where I think it could be, I finally found it laying alone on my desk which I can't even remember when I walk over there for me to place my phone there. I can't even remember placing them there not to talk of walking back to the couch just to stand beside it thinking for hours. If not for the knock on the door, am sure I would have still been there standing lost in my thoughts while punishing myself just because some strangers came int to stress me off. I don't want to ever see anyone of them again neither do I want them near my things. I had better have the security man warned most especially, the security department against allowing him in the next time. I thought putting a call through my personal assistant. "Where are you?" I asked forgetting I had sent her on an errand.
Maxwell POV The moment they left my office, I took a hard grip on the package I ask her to get for me while I hurriedly unbox it carefully not to destroy the way they package it knowing I would have to careful package it back for her not to notice I have taken a peep inside. Before I could even open it, my phone began to ring making noise into my hear. Can I just have a particular time to myself? Like doing anything I want by then? I thought taking my glancr off the phone knowing if I read the name of the caller, I might have to pick it which I don't want to. Taking another deep breath before dropping the phone making it lay on it's face,I was going to Open it again when the call came through almost immediately making me jump at the suddenly vibration of my phone against my desk. Can tye person just chill out and relax, why disturb me with uncontrollable calls. Who the hell could it be? I thought dropping the well package gife pack back to the carton bag which belongs to
Mike pov Entering through the back door like someone who was been pursued, I made sure I check gently by looking around and checking both my left and right because it's important before skipping into the visitors room in a flash. Seeing no one noticed my arrival back into the room because I had expected someone to knock on the door or having to receive a call from them asking what I would love to eat or have to munch on during my stay in here or even a call from Maxwell himself who made me change my mind on running away earlier like I had promise to do made me sigh in relief. My wound or shamefulness has been successfully covered up thanks to no one sighting me stepping into this place, else I might have to do some explanation to a maid who seems obsessed with someone I want to to kill. She would have been a nice tool to use if she isn't head over heels for her client. Who does that? Falling in love with your client? This situation alone made my mind head back to all the w
Kimberley "Mom!Mom!Mom!" I heard the boys yell while running towards me as I set to serve the family dishes. " Oh, comon, what is it again?" I asked, getting tired of the way they ran around disturbing me today. " Dad said he would take Danielle alone to ice cream date." They said simultaneously while I groan. "Okay.. so what do you want me yo do?" I asked, giving them this boring look. " mom, we want ice cream as well. Tell dad to take us along. " they both said, holding me in the hand while I roll my eyes. Why will maxwell just decide to make it this way, I thought I was frustrated already. "Maxwell!!!!" I yelled, running towards the sitting room only to see maxwell on his knees. " Happy birthday, babe." He said, bringing out a key while I wondered what key was this. But then it sleek 2022 Black Badge Rolls-Royce Cullinan, making me jump on him while I rained kisses on his face... TBcThe end
Kimberley pov" He killed our mom? Like he is the reason why I didn't get to tell her how much dad misses her? He is the reason why she couldn't see how much I have grown? He is the reason why I didn't get to hear her voice for the very last time, even if it's just her warmth?" She asked while I let the tears flow out of my eyes as I fell into the nearest seat close you me. Wasn't even scared of hitting my head but on the bare floor or hitting my head on the wall cause the secret I didn't want to let out knowing it wouldn't seat well with my sister, who knows how many month it would take for her to get herself back together. She has had enough from the hands of these wicked men aside from her husband, who stood by her, leaving out the past. I was never going to tell it to anyone if they hadn't pressured into it till I reached my dismissal, but since it was out,they could all solve the rest.I thought while I let the silence reign, letting their minds do the battle judging
Kimberley pov "Mom, but he is dad." The twin said, staring back at me in confusion while Michael and his kids as well look away, not wanting yo act like they knew about all that happened. I purposely told them that anytime something like this arise, they should act like they know nothing about it because it my battle, not theirs, to fight for me. I really want to make maxwell suffer everything I had suffered just because of him but never want his senior brother to share part of this pain because he is ready to forget past and love on. "I meant he was dead in your mom's heart as well as in her memories because this man standing right here never wanted you to be born not to talk of be called his own. I can't even go on and on telling you how I suffered in the cruel hands of this man, the arms that were meant to be comforting. They were bot and filled with evil!" I said, trying not to break down athtge thought of all I had passed through in his hand before I met my sister.
Maxwell pov Staring down at both jc them, I was lost and short of words because I couldn't really tell if I was dreaming ofgghis is actually my reality cause with the one in my arms, it felt very real. I am the one who prepared my tea myself this morning, I bought the pack yesterday myself at the supermarket, so it's not possible to be dreaming or creating this in my head. I thought only to feel the pull on my trousers again, making me take my glance back at the little kid pulling on my trousers leg to gain my attention. " Put my brother down. He didn't do anything wrong." He said again, almost at the blink of tears making my heart ache a little, but then, I quickly composed myself before I got controlled by their emotions. " Fine, I will, but on one condition, you will tell me what you came here for and who you came here with." I said suddenly interested in these two cuties, which I couldn't stop touching over and over. I even went ahead to pat their head continuously
Maxwell pov Waking up from my smorgasbord little sleep, I took a quick look at my bedside alarm, which reminded me ofbtgebtime before starting at my bedside with a sadden face. Not even a woman to wake me up with all kisses and smile or someone to bring breakfast in bed after kimberley has left,I thought with a little tear dropping from my eye before blinking them off. I shouldn't be doing this. It's a brand new day. Remember, you have an important meeting to host. My inner mind reminded me before kicking out the thought of me staying back in bed thinking as usual. Doing a quick prayer, I made my way down to my bathroom before doing the usual while I headed downstairs aiming to make tea and some toast bread for breakfast, at least. Walking down the lonely stairs, I could hear my breathing, and my heart beat loud and clear in the empty house. Every where looks boring and less lively. After everything that had happened, I made sure to chase out everyone, leaving
Kimberley pov Seating backwards while I watched my kids move around playing with their cousin, I couldn't help but chuckle. They all look so happy together, smiling warmly. I wish I can enjoy this moment as well when I was little with my sister. Lost in the scene in front of me, I didn't realise the couple who went to make ouf are approaching laughing wholeheartedly. That immiss, my sister smiling. I guess the few days we have just used here, she has made her life full of Michael, who is also all over her likeza pest. I can't say I have her around me for five hours without Michael stealing her away from me for hours. " The kids are great together. This should have been like this since a long time ago. They look great as an extended family. " Michael said, making me jolt from my long no blinking stare while my sister handed me a chill champagne. With my mouth forming a quiet, mouthful thanks while I took a slip from it, savouring the different flavours in it while
Kimberley pov After a long ride,we finally reached the home he had prepared for us. My kids were already awake, and they have been all around giggling about our relocation. While I unbox everything I brought from Nigeria putting them where they belong to. I did this for longer hours than I expected because my boss wouldn't stop coming to disturb me about one or two, which they just learnt about while I groan internally most of the time while throwing them fake smile as well as engaging in one or two conversations because of them. Finally, I ran a quick yet body calming shower after a long period of arranging before heading downstairs where they were seated waiting for me. " This building is nice, i must say." J commented while he nodded the same as my sis who giggled beside him, but then, none of the kids were present, which made me wonder where they were. " they are over there trying to look into the toy box I gifted them." He said while I used my eyes in search of t
Kimberley pov Today is the day I would be heading back home, where I originate from. It has been three years and months, and I wonder how my kids would feel once they get there. What if the cold will be too much for them? What if they end up shck on getting there? They were born and brought up in Nigeria for three good years and some month. Is this the right decision to make this time around?Different thoughts have been running through my head, but what can I do? I have to sacrifice one thing for my sis happiness as well since she did for me. This is what I signed up for the moment I agreed to the contract. Although I have mo thought of agreeing to it, she wouldn't let me sleep a wink without reminding me. I lost count of times she do remind me daily about the before I decided to leave today. Although she would have loved for me to leave three days ago but I had to make sure there's nothing left for me and my children here. " Mom, are you done cause Damien is already
Kimberley pov " You have enough on your table already, Your children need you, but you left them for me. I shouldn't bother you with my issue as well. You should stop worrying about me. I would be fine. You should be with your family because they needed you the most, not me, who dragged you into this messy life now mine." I said, still in her arms crying while she patted my back. " You were there for them when I was away. You were the one who taught them most things a mother would while I was away. You covered the space I left open in their heart So why shouldn't I be here for you? Mom left both of us to be our brother's keeper, not the other way round. " she said, rubbing my back while I nodded still in her arms. " it's not your responsibility to do most of it, if I had not met him, I bet my children would have a father we can all ho out together not me trying to hide that fact of running away from their father. I wonder how the kids at school would treat my kids i
