"Mother, Do you know why Desmond is hesitating to Divorce Anabel. I thought he will divorce her without second thought. She's barren and unproductive." Daniella said in disgust.
"Yes, but I think Desmond believed she is blessed with good luck. Ever since he married her, things have been going well. He have achieved so many things easier and without stress." "I thought he picked her from the slum. How could he believe it was because of her. What if it's a coincidence?" "I've tried to convince him but he's been stubborn. He loved her and I hate it. I don't know if she charmed my son." . . . "Desmond, I can't stay with that woman. I will forgive you for cheating on me but i won't tolerate you bringing her in this house." Anabel spoke up when as Desmond walked on. "The last time I checked, this is my house. I'm the man of the house and I says what happens. Daniella is staying whether you like it or not. She's carrying my child." "Then what happens to our marriage? I can't share my man with any woman. You are mine and mine alone." "I'm yours alone when you can't give me a child?" "But I'm pregnant." "Cut the crab. You are lying. I know you are scared of loosing me. You are nothing without me, I know how desperate you are but you don't need to lie. You are barren and Daniella just proved it." "If you insist of bringing her here. Then I will leave!" "Is that a threat?" "You can call it anything. If you don't send her away, I will leave." "You are ranting and that's normal. This is one thing you cannot do. Deep down, you know you cannot do it. I'm your life, I'm everything to you. Without me you are nothing. Better keep calm or I kick you out myself." He said and left the room. . . Few minutes later. Daniella saunthered into the bedroom. "Anabel, Why don't you just give up and leave. You can see that you are not wanted in this house anymore. Why are you forcing yourself where you don't belong?" "I should be the one asking you that question. I'm Desmond wife. What are you? I desperate lady who is trying to snatch a man from another woman. Are you not ashamed of yourself?" "I'm not snatching him from you. I'm only trying to rescue him from your trap. You are useless and barren. I'm here to give him what he had been wanting. You can see, I'm about to give him what you couldn't give him for two years. Besides, I hope you enjoyed the sound you heard when I picked the call. You heard when he confessed that you are disgusting." At this moment, Anabel's anger was boiling but Daniella continued. "He also said he loved me more than you. He was saying all these while fucking me hard and deep. You need to see the way he was fucking me. And Guess what? He cummed inside of me while calling you a bitch." "Stop it, Daniella! Stop it! You are the bitch here! Sleeping with someone else husband." "Oh! She's getting angry! Why don't you leave? If I'm you, I will leave. I can never be with a cheating man." "I think I'm done talking with you. Will you get out of this room. before I loose it?" "This is my room now. You are the one to leave. I wonder what your stuffs is still doing here." "You must be dreaming. You are not sleeping in this house tonight." "Let's see who is leaving then." Daniella said and slapped Anabel hard across the face, then fell down and began to yell in pain. "My baby! Please don't hurt my baby!" Richard, her mom and her sister heard Daniella's cry from outside and rushed to know what happened. "What is wrong!" Desmond rushed to help her up. "What happened to you?" "She slapped and kick me on my tummy because I told her I will bring my stuffs inside the room. I think she's jealous." "You are so wicked. Why will you kick a pregnant lady?" Bella yelled at Anabel.. "She's lying. I didn't touch her." Anabel tried to defend herself." She is the one who slapped me. She slapped me and fell on the floor." "You are still denying it, Anabel? You said I will not stay in this house and slapped me, then kick me on my tummy. I wish we have CCTV camera in this room." "Because you couldn't have a child, you want to kick her own out? How can you be so vicious?" Desmond's mother asked and turned to Desmond. "Will you still leave her? This is a valid reason to send her away. If you let her stay any longer, she's going to kill your baby." "Anabel, how could you? You are never like this. Why will you hit a pregnant woman." "Don't you believe me? I didn't do it. She's just acting. She made it up, can't you see?" Anabel tried to convince him but Desmond could not digest it. Daniella was still holding her tummy. "Daniella can't make this up. I will divorced you." "You will? Divorce her now! I kept the divorce letter here. Sign it and give it to her so she will sign." Mrs. Elizabeth handed the divorce letter over to Desmond. "You won't do it, right? You are not signing it." Anabel asked but Desmond went on and sign. "I'm done with you, take it and sign." He stretched his hand to her. "Take it! Sign it!" Anabel hesitated and Desmond's mom yelled at her, "What are you waiting for? Take it and sign it." She took it and looked up at Desmond. "You really want to divorce me? Because of this woman? After the love and care I've shown to you? After all I've done for you? I helped you secretly to get many contracts. Your company was having a hard time when I came into your life. You are on top today because of me." "Will you shut up! You want to take credit of my son's company success? My son his hardworking and that is what payed off." Bella snorted, "Look at who is helping. Country's bumpkin. How were you of help when you are poor?" "Anabel, just sign the paper and leave. I don't want to listen to you anymore. I don't need you anymore." Desmond declared. "It's alright. I will sign it. But I assure you that You will regret this day. All of you." She said and sign the paper, then fling the paper at him. Desmond was surprised. He was expecting her to cry and beg him. She wasn't even feeling sad. "Yes! You have done what I wanted. Now you can take your bag and leave." Mrs. Elizabeth said. "I forgot to tell you that you are not leaving with any dim. All the money in the card will be freezed." "I don't even need your money. It can't solve half of my bills. You can have all of it" She said and dailed a number she have not called for a long time. "Come and take me. I'm done with him.""Who are you calling?" Desmond asked."Why are you asking me who I'm calling? I'm no longer your wife. Who I'm calling is none of your business.""She must be calling her poor friends." Bella mocked."Mind how you talk to me Bella, I'm never your mate. Though I don't blame you. I blame myself for reducing myself so low that you can talk to me anyhow you want. If not that I married your brother, you are not qualified to talk to me. People like you run errands for me.""Stop blabbing. It won't help you. You are leaving and you are not coming back." Bella waved a mocking goodbye as Anabel made her way to leave with a small bag."Don't come back begging, Anabel. I won't listen to you. You have the privilege to stay and be our house help, other than going out to perish. All of us know that you don't have anywhere to go. I'm giving you a chance." Anabel heard Desmond spoke from behind. She paused and twirled her head towards him. "The last thing I will do is to become your maid. I'm going
"Take me to the best boutique. I need some new clothes." Anabel said just as she entered the car. The driver drove off without talking. He knew the best boutique in the city. In less than twenty minutes, they were there. They parked in the parking lot and she came down. "I will go inside inside by myself. I will call if i need any help." Anabel said before walking inside. The boutique is meant for the rich. A common person cannot afford the the least collections in the boutique. Anabel got interested in one of the gowns and called the sales lady to get it from her. "The gown over there." She pointed at the gown. "I need it. Get it for me." The sales lady looked up and saw the cloth she was pointing at. It was one of the most expensive collections. She stared at Anabel and shook her head. "Are you sure you know the cloth you are pointing at?" The sales lady asked. "I'm not having an eye problem. Get the dress for me." Anabel replied. "I'm sorry, I don't want to waste m
The Next Day, Anabel logged into the Company's dashboard and Input all her details on the page of Newly employed Janitor. She didn't border to change her name or anything. None of the employees, both high or minor knew who she is. Her father have not introduced her to the public. Only the senior manager could identify her. She will be visiting the company as a Janitor in disguise. She believed she would be able to fish out some offenders as a Janitor.She entered a taxi and headed to the company. The company's main building loomed before her as she entered the main gate. She approached the entrance, took a deep breathe and stepped inside.She walked up to the female receptionist. "Good morning ma'am. My name is Anabel. I'm a new employee.""Over there. You see that lady?" The receptionist pointed at a woman at the other end. "She's the recruiter. She will take care of you.""Thank you very much." She turned and walked up to the recruiter. "Good morning, ma'am." "Good morning, dear.
"Who do you even think you are? For Your information, Desmond was informed to come today for the final agreement and signing. You think you are a big deal? And you better watch your mouth. I can tell the senior manager to fire you." Daniella threatened."As if you a qualified to tell the senior manager what to do. Know your boundaries before you pit your to trouble. For you, Desmond, you are far, very far from getting the contract.""Anabel, the supervisor is waiting." The young lady alerted her."Anyway, I don't even have your time. I need to go and start my work." Anabel said and followed the lady."This will be your first and last day of working here." Anabel heard Daniella ranting behind her back and ignored. "Lets forget about her and go. People are already looking at you." Desmond cautioned Daniella and pulled her to follow him."I will tell the senior manager to fire her. Who do she think she is." Daniella mumbled."Calm down. Lets go." Desmond managed to pet her down.Daniell
"Yes." The senior manager answered. "The CEO will be involved. I can't change the policy without his approval. The CEO will review the contract and determine the best course of action.""How long will this take?""I will schedule a meeting with the CEO. I can't tell when you will receive a response.""This is becoming complicating. All because of Anabel?""I understand your concern, Desmond, but we must follow protocol. I will keep you informed."With that, the meeting concluded, leaving Desmond and Daniella uncertain about the contract.As they left the office, Desmond mumbled, "I wonder the kind of connection Anabel have with the senior manager. Why must he require Anabel's signature. I'm confused.""What else, if not that she's sleeping with him. She must have used her body to bag the contract for you. Can't you see it?" Daniella said."Are you sure of what you are saying?" Desmond asked."Are you doubting me? What else could she do if not to please him on bed.""Stop saying that.
"I can see you delive joy in bullying others. what if I report you to the senior manager?" Anabel said."Ohh! I'm scared! She wants to report me to the senior manger!" She mocked her. "Reporting to the manager won't change anything. It will only get you into trouble. So don't even think of threatening me with that. I will deny you infront of the senior manger and file for false accusation. You know what it means.""We have CCTV camera here. It will expose you." Anabel pointed out.."Don't be stupid. I control the CCTV camera. None of these camera's is working. You are new here, so I'm not surprised."At this time, the older woman had finished cleaniing"So I think it's time to know if you really need this job, because I can see that you are stubborn." The HR continued. "My shoe is dirty, kneel down and clean it.""Clean your shoe? Really?" Anabel asked, surprised at her odd request."Yes, Kneel down and clean my shoe. I won't repeat myself again." The HR warned."Cleaning your shoe is
"Wow, Manager. What bring you here?" The HR asked."I heard your voice and decided to check what is happening. What is going on here?" The manager asked."Manager, Thank God you are here. You just in time. I'm going to expose the HR to you even though she's going to be fired by the end of today." Anabel said."Expose? Getting fired?" The manager asked. "What do you want to expose?" "The HR is insulting and bullying us. This is not acceptable. She's abusing her powers as if she's a God over us. I think you should do something about it. Though she will be fired by the end of today but now that you are here, maybe you should confront and fire her now.""Abuse of powers? Insult staff? How dare you say that to your HR!" The manager slapped her across the face. "The HR is a good lady who is doing her job perfectly. And you.......a janitor... is saying is abusing her powers? You even said she's going to be fired.""Sir, did you Just slapped me. I just reporting a serious issue and you slapp
"Why not visit the HR today and remind him?" Anabel suggested and just then, the older woman received a call."Your mother's health is at risk. You need to pay up for the surgery or you will have Your to blame." A feminine voice spoke from the other side of the phone. The older woman was about to say something and the call went off."I just recieved a call from the hospital. They said my mother's health have changed and needed to undergo surgery immediately. I will visit the HR once I'm done cleaning." Anabel could see how scared and sore she look."Yes, you need to. Tell her it's urgent."...(Few hours later..The older woman stepped into the the HR office. She was done with her cleaning routine. The manager was talking with the HR romantically when she walked in."Hey! What are you doing here!" She scolded her. "Can't you see I'm with someone.""I'm sorry Ma'am, but it's urgent. I received a call that my mother's health have worsen. Please I need the health benefit card for the
"I think Sylvester is right. This company needs the best man and I think it will be nice if we take Mr. Max." Anabel said."But what about Mr. Jenkins, the current head of the IT department?" The Manager asked. "Will you fire him?""I understand your concerns, Mr. Mike," Anabel said with a gentle voice gentle. "But I have to think about what's best for the company. And right now, I think Max is the best person for the job."Mr. Jenkins' face fell, and he looked like he was going to cry. "But what about me?" He asked with a voice which was barely above a whisper. "What am I supposed to do?"Anabel felt a pang of sympathy for the older man, but she knew that she couldn't let sentiment cloud her judgment. She turned to Jenkins with a thoughtful expression on her face. "I won't let you go. No, I won't fire you. I want to offer you a chance to stay with the company. You can work under Max, and I'm sure both of you can work together and lift the company to the next level."Jenkins' face li
Anabel smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "Thank you, Sylvester. I really appreciate it." Twenty minutes later, a tall, lanky guy with a messy beard and a mop of curly hair walked into Anabel's office. He was dressed in a pair of ripped jeans and a faded t-shirt, and he looked like he had just rolled out of bed. "Hey, sorry I'm late," he said, extending a hand to Anabel. "I'm Max." Anabel shook his hand, trying not to stare at his disheveled appearance. He doesn't look like a professional. He looked like an indoor hacker who couldn't bag a job. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Max. Thank you for coming." Max nodded and turned to Sylvester. "What is the problem?" "Mr. Jenkins will tell you everything." Sylvester said and Jenkins explained everything to him. When Jenkins finished, Max nodded. "I think I can resolve it. Can you show me the system?" Mr. Jenkins led Max to the server room, and Anabel followed, curious to see what Max would do. For the next few thirty minutes, M
"I don't think it's necessary. If you are here to talk about love, then we have to call it a day." Anabel said. "It's okay. But can we be friends? I will like to be a friend. We can get to work in future. Like collaboration or something like that." Sylvester said and Anabel stared at him. He looked rich and smart, qualified to have her personal number. "I will give you my number, but don't disturb me. I'm a busy person." Anabel said and gave him her number. Sylvester smiled, he have taken a step to get Anabel. He knew he won't fail. Days passed and he began to send love messages. Anabel would read and ignore. She didn't want to give him any chance. . . A week later, Anabel's father handed one of his company to her. "You will become the acting CEO. If you survive, you will have the company." It was an automobile company. An electric car which was working with an advanced driver's assistant system, just like Zacklid group. She was happy and ready to move it to another level.
(Few Days Later. In a Conference meeting)As Anabel was giving her Speech, Sylvester, a medium profile business man was sitting at the the back of the auditorium, with his arms crossed. The Conference had drawn in some of the most brilliant minds from the state and Anabel was one of them. His eyes was fixed on the stage, watching Anabel's speech. She was taking the podium with a confident stride. Sylvester found himself captivated with her excellent command in speech. Not just by her ideas, but by her very presence. There was a certain spark in her, an undeniable energy that commands attention. Ever since she witnessed Anabel's action on Zacklid group launching day, he had been looking forward to meet her, which was the main reason he came to the conference meeting. He had made research about her and had gotten all the information he needed. HER REAL IDENTITY. Thanks to his boys that worked it out without wasting time.When the event came to an end, Sylvester made his way to the fro
"Well, you are bold. I will give you that. But I'm not the type of man you think I am. I will appreciate if you leave my sight." Desmond said and continued with his drink."Stop talking as if you often gets a hot woman like me chatting you up." She said and Desmond chuckled. He couldn't tell if she was joking or if she actually thought she was something special."As old as you are, you are still feeling yourself as if you are anything special. I think you have the wrong idea about who you are talking with.""No, you are the one who is mistaken. All I know is that at the end, you and me will be leaving together. We are going to know each other very well. I mean..,.very well. And by that. I mean we are going to my place, get naked and have sex, lots of it.""I... I... what?" Desmond stammered, shaking his head. He was lost of words. He was baffled. Was she joking or what? Was she pranking him? How could an old woman like her presume that a handsome rich guy like him would cheat on his
"I'm not a public food. I'm reserved for rich men like you. I'm sure I'm more endowed than the woman in your house. Men like you eat fresh and not bones.""I'm still not interested.""You don't know what you are about to miss.""I'm not missing anything. I have a pregnant woman in my house. You want me to cheat on her? Will it be fair? Remember she's a woman like you." Desmond said, trying to Play emotional counter strategy."It's not a big deal. Men cheats on their pregnant wife. I once had sex with a man who's wife was about to deliver. He was speaking with her on the phone while I was busy riding him. So you won't be the first.""And you think it's normal? They probably don't love their wife. I won't try that.""I can see you are not a real man. Real men cheats on their wife. They have fun with multiple women, something they won't get from their wives. I will leave you and wait for real men. Your loss." She said and stood up, then saunter off, swaying her immaculate ass from side t
Desmond couldn't believe he was about to sleep without sex. He have never been in that situation. He was angry but he couldn't do anything. He don't want to force her and he can't possibly fix the wedding because she was denying him her body.Daniella was expecting him to dance to her tune but he turned, facing his back at her. Daniella was disappointed. She thought he will fix the wedding date if she denied him sex but it failed.Desmond didn't say anything again, leaving Daniella unsettled. She wanted to change her mind and resolve with Desmond but she couldn't. At this point, she needed to maintain her sneeze.Both slept off afterwards. The next day, Desmond woke up and got prepared. He didn't even talked to her. As he was about to leave, He heard Daniella's voice from the back, "You are leaving without even talking to me?""Why will I talk to you? Can you let me be? Can you?""Is it about last night? I....I'm sorry. I....I over reacted and I'm sorry.""I don't have time for you n
"She never talk about wedding. Why did she suddenly bring it up and even wants it urgently?" Desmond asked himself when Daniella left. His mind was telling him she was up to something but he couldn't tell her exact motive. They were together because of his family and her pregnancy, and things have never been same ever since Anabel left.Though he believed with time, he will start loving Daniella, but her recent character was not something he can just ignore. She blocked her sister and his mother in his phone. And why would she talking about wedding when the coast was not clear enough. He was loosing contracts, coupled with the fact that his mother was sick. ...At night when they got ready for bed, Desmond couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration. He had been looking forward to a romantic evening with Daniella, but now it seemed like that was not going to happen.As they lay in bed, Desmond reached out to Daniella, hoping to rekindle the spark that had been missing that evenin
"Are we going home now?" Daniella said to Desmond when she approached him."Home? When I've not spoken with my mother?" Desmond replied."I thought you are angry at them." She said, looking up at him."I may be angry but that doesn't mean I will leave without talking with my mom.""But she's not awake.""I know. I will wait till he wakes up." Daniella left, leaving Desmond in the hospital. Desmond waited till evening but she didn't wake up. He gave Bella some cash and credited her account."When mother wakes up, tell her that I came. Take good care of her." Desmond said before leaving....Desmond walked into the room and dropped the car key onto the counter, then proceed to remove his cloths. As he reached for the hem of his shirt, he heard Daniella's voice behind him."So honey, when are we going to fix our wedding. You know, it's the only thing remaining for us to be officially together." "Wedding?" Desmond asked and turned to her. "How will you be taking about wedding when my
