Kimberly POV Stepping into my room after a long tour around the house with no one bit that little witch ruining my day, I thought going back to bed and rest my worked up brain maybe by then, I will be able to find sleep and get my brain rested including those things she had said out of my head but unfortunately,I couldn't even blink my eyes not to talk of sleep of find peace on Maxwell bed. Since I couldn't find peace within his room abd bed, I took nothing from the room not even my slippers before hurrying out of the room heading straight to my room who knows if I would be able to sleep where It's mine or am familiar to, I thought before locking his room with the code he has given me to open them and close them anytime it's that am in need of them. Entering my room bare footed, I headed straight for the bathroom where I ran myself a quick bath hoping I can wash off all my stress and the blunt abuse the little girl gave me especially the part sge had called me stink. I couldn
Kimberly POV Opening my eyes, I let out a loud yarn while stretching with my arms and legs spread apart out with my eyes getting watery just because of the yarn I let out not long. I can't believe I really slept off for this long, I thought due to how I was sweating same goes to my wet bed spreed and duvet cover I was feeling both under me and on me. Seating up from my bed, I began to look for my phone cause I already lost count of both time and seconds who knows if I have missed my lunch and dinner already. Most especially Maxwell promise to call me as well as for shopping knowing it would be so Interesting to hang out with him for the very first time and this I don't want to ruin it at all, who knows if this would be the only chance with him and also, this would be the first time stepping out since ages that I wouldn't want to lose it not to talk of joke with what feelings it would always be with me forever, I thought smiling to myself as I began to look for my phone.
Kimberly POV Did she just refer to me as an harlot? I thought making my eyes ball stretch and became bigger like they were going to fall out any moment from now as I stare at her in disgust. I couldn't even believe my ears at all for the kind of words coming out from her mouth. Hoe old is she again? I thought searching through my brain to remember if I have been told how old she is and hopefully, I found the memory of Mike telling me they are both six years old which means it's just six years ago he has three their Mom out since he couldn't give her love which she was looking for. " I understand you ate pained that I got to stay instead of your Mom who might have been thrown out of the house. Girl listen up, I didn't for him to fall in love with me you can go ask him if you want to but you see your uncle, I have nothing to do with him okay! You dad might have call him over to watch over me till he is back which is why he was here the other day and of you have been in thi
Maxwell POV Driving through the tunnel that lead to where I had hid my brother away from those who had attack him the first time, who knows what they will do if they had known he isn't dead like they had thought he is,they might have come back again doing it over and over again. Main reason why it's oy two people aside me who knows where he is not even his children or his ex wife, I had him protected like my life deeply depends on it which is so. He loses his, I lose mine also which is why I am here trying all my possible best to have him live if not me, then foe his children. Those little children of his must have really missed him which is why they have decided to stay in isolation or spend their time was in the play house they had turn my garage store Into. Even at school, I heard they weren't talking and Jovia as they were before. Instead they spend their time alone while the others who tried to engage them into doing one or two, they tend to lock away from them including
Maxwell POV Maybe this is a dream or I was just making up what they had said up same as my brother's heart beat sounds cause this was the same chest I had placed my head on crying for minutes I guess that I didn't realize It has a sound. Why is it now that I replace my ear on his chest is when it's ringing out loud? I thought placing my ear right back there and it really make a slow shallow beat filling my bitterness with happiness immediately. All my worries disappear like it hasn't been a minute I had thought about him leaving me here to be with grandma in heaven. Thank goodness it didn't happen who knows? I wouldn't have thought twice before having the doctor hung already having him shaking and struggling for his life till he finally let go and give up the ghost. But thankfully, nothing happened to him from my hand before I realize what exactly happened here if not for the Nanny, I might have been blaming myself already if she didn't speak up early, I thought seating in
Maxwell personal assistant POV Getting into the water already, It took some minutes before I was able to see what exactly was happening down here. Looking around like twice, I was able to sight a figure seating at the far end of the pool with her eyes closed while she sat like she was meditating. I wasn't going to take her out or disturb her in the first time but seeing and remembering how people were crying and shouting out there, what if she is unconscious already? These thoughts ran into my head making me remember how Maxwell would be and feel like if something should go wrong with his fiance. This is the main reason I took that huge step of jumping into the river without thinking of what would be happening the water or what was happening in the waters not until I had dipped my head inside to have my eye on what was going on deep in the pool. Diving into it deeper to where she was, I use my eyes trying to check if there's something holding her down but then, I found n
Anna's pov All I could think of was me having to kill someone with this lips of mine. Something dad has warned me against doing. What if he wakes up today and learn what I had done? Will he be happy with what I had done? Even if he end up dead would his dead body be happy to learn what I have done? These thoughts were busy roaming around my head like it was going to explode as we all yell and cry out out heart staring at the clam water but no one could see what's below clearly side her figure in there. We shouldn't have been yelling and crying our eyes out, someone should have entered like the lady who save the day did. I can't believe no one thought so also as much as we were over there. I thought staring at the lady who have her eyes closed while resting on the couch. The thought of who she could be for her to have the access into my uncle's home wouldn't stop disturbing my mind. What if she is her senior sister? What if she went upstairs to send some kind of message
Maxwell POV After the little chat with both the doctor and the Nanny, I decided to open my phone checking the call logs to see alot of people back from home had called already including my personal assistant making me wonder what could have happened back at home for them including maids to call me. Something none of them has ever done, have warned them against putting a call through me even if they sees my miss calls, they dear not to put a call through back which is why none of the dare to put a call through me to ask of suggest anything, they dare not cause they have already signed in their agreement also not to ever do so. But none of those who had called me has ever thought of these rules and also my warnings before putting a call through to me. LoL, these people are testing my patience but thanks to the good news I receive today, they aren't going to receive their punishment today, I won't let that ruin my day which is why I would let today pass and let them be till t
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
