They were still talking when Desmond walked in with Daniella, holding hands like couples.
"Wow! My son and my potential daughter inlaw is here already! They look like a perfect match from heaven." Desmond's mother stepped forward and embraces her son. "Desmond!" Anabel called. "How can you cheat on me." He turned his attention to Anabel. "I don't understand. What are you talking about." "Do you want to deny it? Don't even try to. I called you this afternoon to share a good news to you, only to find out that you are cheating on me. I guess the husband snatcher picked the call and left it so I can listen to her sick moans." "I've warned you to deceit from calling my potential daughter inlaw a husband snatcher!" Desmond's mother intervened. "What good news do you have for him other than telling him that you found another sex style that will make you pregnant." "Son." She turned to Desmond. "You don't have to be hiding it from her. You are doing the right thing. Daniella is perfect for you. You two look good together." "I'm still waiting for your answer, Desmond." Anabel alerted. "Why are you disturbing me? Even if I cheated, It's not my fault. For two years, you have not giving me a child. Not even a miscarriage." "But it's not my fault..I'm perfectly okay." "Oh! It's my son's fault? Is that what you are trying to say? You mean son is impotent?" Desmond mother asked. "I didn't day that." "Anyway, Even if it's what she mean." Daniella spoke up. "I have an evidence to prove that Desmond is perfectly okay. Yesterday, I got my test result. I'm 2 months pregnant for Desmond." "Wow! This is a great news! You are pregnant with my son's child?" "You didn't tell me." Desmond said. "I want it to be a surprise, and i think that this is the right time. To prove that you are a real man." She dipped her hand in her handbag and slot out the test result. "Here is the test result." "Wow! This is great! I'm going to be a father" Desmond hugged her. "Yes, very soon. what gender do you wish? A boy or a girl" Daniella asked. "Any gender. I don't care if it's a boy or a girl. What matters is that you are pregnant and I'm going to be a father soon." Desomd replied and gave her another hug. "Now! I think it's time for you to sign the divorce letter. It's now obvious that you are barren." Mrs. Elizabeth turned to Desmond. "I think you will support me this time and divorce her for good. You can confirm that she's barren. You had been wasting your money and strength on her. Divorce her immediately." "What if I'm pregnant?" Anabel countered and the room went silent, then Bella burst out of laughter. "You? pregnant? No way! So Because Daniella is pregnant, you too wants to claim to be pregnant as well. Brother, don't listen to her. She's lying." "You pathetic lair." Desmond's mother sneered at her "You were never pregnant for two whole years. Now you have become pregnant all of a sudden. Do you take us as fools?" "But I'm telling the truth. That is the good news i was talking about." "Anabel, Why are you lying." Daniella spoke up. "I know you don't want to loose Desmond because of his money but it shouldn't make you to lie. Just accept the fact that you are barren. You cannot be pregnant." "How could you? You think I will fell for your cheap lies?" Desmond asked. "I'm not lying. I'm with the test result." She picked it out of her handbag and stretched out her hand to give it to Desmond and Daniella snatched it from her." She scanned through it and shook her head in disgust. "This must be a fake test result. I won't let Desmond fall for this." She teared the paper into pieces and threw it at Anabel. "Why will you tear that report. It's regit and not fake." "Just shut up! I can't believe you can do this. So you have become so desperate to the point of forging a fake pregnancy report." Desmond asked. "You all have to believe me. The test result is not fake." "Desmond, Will you stand there and listen to this pathetic lair? This is the perfect time to divorce her. Daniella is the perfect wife for you. You can see that she's pregnant for you." The mother said. "What if the child she's carrying is not his own?" Anabel question and Desmond turned to her in anger. "How dare you!" Desmond slapped her hard across the face and she losed balance and fell on the floor. "How can you accuse my future wife of infidelity? I can tolerate any other thing but not this." "Can you stop this drama and divorce her?" Mrs. Elizabeth couldn't wait for Desmond to divorce her. "I don't think it's good. Let her stay. She don't have anywhere to go." Desmond replied. "What are you saying?" "Let her stay. She will be good as a house help." The word pierced into Anabel like an arrow. She couldn't believe he just called her a maid. Daniella frowned her face and held his arm. "But I don't need a maid. She can poison me out of jealousy. You know she's angry you are bringing me in. "Don't say that about her." Desmond cautioned her. "Anabel is not like that." "Are you defending Anabel?" Bella asked "Daniella is right. Send Anabel away. She's a parasite." "Anabel, get back to the room. We will talk letter." Desmond said and Anabel hesitated before leaving. She knew she was free to go back to her father's house, but she doesn't want to loose Desmond, even after the humiliations. "So you are going to let get stay?" Daniella asked just as Anabel went out of view. "She's my wife. I can't let her go. She don't have anyway to go. She will be here, just like our maid. If you are afraid she will poison you, then be incharge of cooking." He said and left to meet Anabel."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 m
"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
