"Stacy! Stacy!" Jerome blinked a finger at Stacy, jotting her out of her thoughts.Tears streamed down her eyes and Jerome was worried."Why are you crying, sweetie?" He asked in a soft melodic voice as his soft hands reached out to her face and gently wiped her tears away."It's nothing," Stacy muttered, blinking her eyes so the tears could stop.Jerome fixed his gaze at her, as he used two of his hands to hold his face."Stacy, I don't know what suddenly changed between your parents, but they are still your parents no matter what. And I believe Kelly will reach out to you soon." Jerome said comforting her and she nodded, wiped the remaining tears from her eyes, and smiled."Bingo! That's what I love seeing. Your smile." Jerome winked at her, his eyes filled with happiness.A message popped on his phone, getting his attention."Ahmm, let me check this," Jerome said and swiped to unlock his phone and it was a message from the board."We urgently need you at the company." That was the
"And what's so funny?" Uncle Moses annoyingly asked, his brow furrowed and his arms crossed, his eyes squinting in disapproval."First of all, it was my idea to get married to Debbie and now it's my choice to call it off which I already did. Secondly, Uncle Moses, come on, I'm not a kid anymore. You can go ahead and demote me from the CEO's position, I would love to see you try, and I will gladly file a suit against you and make sure I sue you for every single penny. I promise you, I will make this company go bankrupt if you dare!" Jerome stated, stressing the words with so much seriousness and his words brought some level of calmness in the board room as everyone kept mute, scared of Jerome's threat because they knew he was right."So go ahead, why don't you just do it right now? Do it, come on, demote me, do it!" Jerome yelled but everyone looked away scratching their heads."Exactly what I thought!" Jerome said.Mr Moses stood up angrily and came closer to Jerome."This is not the
Kelly was reluctant, as she doesn't know how to face Stacy, but the warm smile she saw on Stacy's face gave her the confidence and ran into her arms.They hugged tightly and Kelly checked Stacy all over, with tears in her eyes."Sister, what happened to you? Are you okay?" She asked, her hands holding her chin."I'm fine Kelly, I'm fine." Stacy answered, and Kelly exhaled deeply and embraced Stacy again.Jerome stared at them with a relief mind that everything went out well."I was so worried about you. God forbid if something had happened to you, I would have never forgiven myself, ever." Kelly exclaimed.Stacy beamed and wiped Kelly's tears."You don't need to worry, I'm fine and in good hands." Stacy replied.Kelly shakes her head and gulped down a numb in her throat.She wiped her tears with happy face and that was how she noticed Jerome standing."I'm sorry, I didn't notice you. Hey. I believed you called me, right?" Kelly asked and Jerome came forward for a handshake."Yeah, nic
Kelly's phone rang and she sighed frustrated."Who is that? You don't intend to pick up?"Stacy asked and Kelly massaged her forehead stress fully."It's Mom, gosh I would rather not speak with her right now." Kelly answered."She is your Mom, don't do this to her. Now listen to me, you going to answer this, okay?"Stacy said, urging Kelly to answer."Fine!" Kelly scoffed and stood up, holding the phone in her hand and went outside.She slid the answer button and answered."Mom! I'm busy." Kelly groaned."Busy doing what? Kelly, where the hell did you went to? I figured out you travel when you clearly know that you have a meeting with the new investors! Do you know how your stupidity had affected us? Don't you know how I struggled for you to become the CEO?" Her mom yelled over the phone.Kelly removed the phone from her ears and the yelling from her Mom is causing her headache."Can you calm down! Mom! Oh my gosh, I went over to do something okay?" Kelly replied."Something more impo
Stacy yawned and stretched her body as the sun reflected on her face.Jerome kept his face in both of his hands as he admired her.She finally opened her eyes and was welcomed by the most beautiful sight, the sight she always loved to see."Good morning sleepy head." Jerome teased."Good morning!" Stacy replied, rubbing her eyes."How could you still be looking beautiful even though you are just waking up? You look like an Angel." Jerome flattered, making her cheeks red."How did I end up here? I mean, last time I remembered was climbing your back at the park." Stacy stated, pointing at her brain funnily."Oh, you slept off." Jerome replied."I'm sorry, I stressed your back." Stacy muttered."Nah, you didn't. My back is always at your service." Jerome winked at her.The doctor interrupted their conversation and entered holding Stacy's file.He did some check-ups on her while ticking a space in the file which only God knows what. Lol."How are you feeling, Stacy?" The doctor asked.Sta
Stacy's face glowed with a soft blush, her eyes shining with happiness as he complemented her.Her emotions swirled in a mix of delight, surprise, and wonder, leaving her feeling loved and adored."Thank you for having a good first impression on me." Stacy beamed."No, thank you for proving to me that you worth everything I thought about you." Jerome replied and tears were threatening to fell from his eyes."If crying will make you feel better, you should let the tears fall." Stacy urged, and he opened his mouth, trying to stop the tears, but they got the better of him and fell."Marriage was never in my plans Stacy, but I'm glad through my unfortunate situation, I met you, and I'm happy I chose you but…" Jerome sniffed and wiped his tears."I wasn't hurt by the fact that Katrina plotted against me and defamed me, I was hurt by finding out who sponsored her to ruin my life and career." Jerome exclaimed."Who are they, Jerome?" Stacy asked, staring at him.His lips creeped into a painf
Kelly was sad, angry, devastated and disappointed at herself for letting Angela go.Angela had loved her so much and even traveled from the United Kingdom to Canada just to meet her.She decided that was enough and this has to come to an end.Having an idea in mind, she confidently got off the VIP seat and headed to her car, knowing exactly what to do.*Kelly arrived at her Mansion in the state where her family live. She was shocked to see her Mom and Dad back from the business trip so early."Kelly!" Her mom exclaimed, rejoicing as she pulled her into her arms.Kelly stood still, not reiterating the hug."I missed you so much my daughter." Her Mom said smiling widely at her.Kelly rolled her eyes and moved a bit back from her."You guys are back early. Welcome back Dad." Kelly said and hugged her Dad, who is also Stacy's Dad, Mr Sky."Thank you, Kelly." Mr Sky replied and kissed her forehead."You don't seem excited that we returned earlier?" Mrs Sky asked."Yeah, whatever." Kelly s
Jerome returned to the ward and Stacy was chewing a strawberry."Mm, yummy." Jerome teased her before seating."Yeah of course, yummy." Stacy beamed."Good news." Jerome said."Really? What?" Stacy asked."Guess." Jerome answered."Not good at guessing, just tell me , please."Stacy pouted, playing with her fingers.Jerome smiled as he found her childishness very adorable."Okay, your cute little eyes won, so the good news is that, the police were able to trace the color of the car that ran into you. It was a hitman." Jerome said."What!" Stacy replied and sat up, facing Jerome."Why would someone want to kill me?" She asked."Okay, don't freak out okay. And yes, let's not talk about this. I have something fun for us to do at the hospital Garden." Jerome answered."Really? What do you want us to do?" Stacy asked."Come on, why don't you see them yourself."Jerome answered and spread his hands open for her, and she crawled to his arms.He kissed her forehead before carrying her in his
Season Finale *four days later*It was the wedding day of Jerome and Debbie, and Debbie couldn't hide her excitement. The event hall was decorated to her taste and it was just like she had dreamed of, the talk of the town wedding.Reporters, and celebrities from all around the world, Africa, and Asia were in attendance, and food was served in different ways.Indeed, the wedding was screaming luxury.It was already time and Jerome was nowhere to be found. Debbie was getting worried and tried calling his phone but he hasn't been answering.In no time, the guest already started murmuring as she was seated next to the priest waiting for Jerome to say their vows.She was getting tensed, the heat of embarrassment building up in the atmosphere.She looked around nervously searching for Jerome and after all the stress, he finally arrived, but to everyone's surprise, he came with lots of policemen.Debbie stood up, shocked and so did her parents."Hey, Debbie." Jerome giggled and walked to th
Semi-final Jerome walked out of the boardroom and Stacy thrilled behind him."Jerome." She called and he paused. This will be the first time she is coming face to face with him since after the separation."Thank you, so much for what you did to me. I won't ask you how you knew about it but after all I did, I don't deserve your kindness." Stacy exclaimed."It's nothing, Stacy. After all, you are not my enemy, I loved you and I cannot watch your life crumble when I could do something to help out. So, consider it as nothing." Jerome replied."Thank you so much," Stacy said and he smiled at her."Take care, I have something to take care of," Jerome stated."Oh, by the way, congratulations on your engagement. I'm sorry I couldn't do it on time." Stacy said and instead of replying, he nodded his head and left.Stacy stared at him until his shadow disappeared and retired to the boardroom where she met her family waiting for her.*Jerome was once again emotional seeing Stacy, he headed to h
Stacy walked out of the restaurant and tried calling a cab when she sighted someone she knew."Alex!" She called and waved at him."Oh, Stacy," Alex replied and went over to her."What are you doing here? It's a pleasure to meet you." Stacy excitedly said as they exchanged a handshake."Just came over for lunch. What are you doing outside, alone?" Alex inquired and Stacy beamed sadly."I was on a date but I guess, that was a terrible idea. Anyways, it was nice meeting you, I will go ahead." Stacy replied."No, I'm not having anything important. I can give you a ride." Alex said."No, no, it's okay, I'm fine. I will just wait for my cab and...""No, Stacy, I insist and yes, you cannot refuse me. So, please, let's go already." Alex said and took her purse.She smiled awkwardly and followed his lead as he walked to where his car was parked.He opened the car for her and she entered.He was skeptical to tell her that he was with Jerome and he left because he saw her with Liam."So, how is
Alex and Jerome finally arrived at the restaurant and were already seated while waiting for their orders.And they talked about businesses, and the autonomous cars productions that had become universally wanted."Why is this wait taking so much time." Jerome groaned and stood up to check when his eyes caught a sight that kept his eyes ball fixed in that direction."What are you looking at?" Alex asked and when Jerome did not respond, he stood up and saw Stacy and Liam, coming into the restaurant, with all smiles.*After Jerome's engagement last night, Liam had been begging Stacy to go out with him and despite refusing to accept, he showed up at her office and she had no option but to accept and go out with him.Jerome stared at Liam pulls her a chair and his heart was arching."Let's go, Alex," Jerome said blinking his eyes. It was as if he would burst into tears at any moment."But the lunch and..." Alex was not able to complete his statement, Jerome stormed out, and Alex ran after
Jerome was relieved that Stacy was better and blamed himself for being the cause of all her problems.While leaving the hospital, he suddenly remembered the old lady who was leaving her ward. Remember her?He decided to visit her and thank her for being a motivation to him in his most trying moment.He got to her ward and it was empty too. So he thought she had gone out of her ward again, without the Nurse's knowledge.He went out and met with a nurse, the same nurse who was in charge of taking care of the old Lady."Hey." Jerome waved at her."Mr Jerome. Long time, no see. Miss Mercy had been asking for you all the time, even the day we lost her." The Nurse exclaimed and Jerome looked at her."What do you mean until we lost her?" Jerome asked, looking shocked."Unfortunately, her cancer had reached its last state, and even chemotherapy couldn't save her. We lost her to the cold hands of death." The Nurse answered."Oh no," Jerome said, his back touching the wall."She asked for you,
Jerome and Debbie returned to their seats as the event had already commenced."About earlier, he was just asking for the restroom," Debbie said."Oh, I see," Jerome replied. And it was time for them to exchange rings.Jerome took the ring and looked towards Stacy's direction but he saw her hurriedly leaving.His attention was driven to her yet again."Did she perhaps feel bad? Does she still love me? Or maybe she wasn't feeling too well?" Jerome wondered and he was wondering why the doctor would let her out of the hospital to attend such a crowded occasion.He decided to go see the doctor the next day and reprimand him for being careless with Stacy's health knowing the risks associated with her health and pregnancy.Debbie was getting pissed as he stood frozen and everyone's eyes were on him waiting for him to put the ring on her finger."What are you doing, Jerome!" Debbie half yelled and that got his attention, dragging him back to reality."Oh, I'm sorry," Jerome replied and with h
*The Engagement party*It was the day of the engagement.Despite Stacy's sadness, she dressed up so elegantly and wore a red fitted gown that gave justice to her well-endowed body.Her belly had begun protruding and the pregnancy was looking good on her, adding an extra glow to the already existing goddess look she had.Stacy stood in front of the mirror, panting.She had been rehearsing how to act normal and pretend everything was well but she couldn't stop getting nervous.She felt like she would not be able to control her emotions when she saw Jerome.Kelly joined her in the room."Okay, I had missed seeing this side of my elegant sister. You are looking so beautiful tonight, Sissy." Kelly exclaimed."Looking at myself in the mirror, I just realized how much I had let loose of myself," Stacy replied and faced Kelly.Kelly picked a lipgloss and put a little on Stacy's lips as her lips were chapped."Thank you." Stacy smiled."You are welcome. You are scared, aren't you? Your hands a
*The Next day*Stacy was done giving a speech at the board meeting, and it ended in a absolute applaud.They were glad to have her back and her ideas are always top notched.On her way back to the office, while she was exchanging pleasantries, her assistant came to call her."Good day, Miss Stacy. You have a guest." She announced."Oh, a guest. Um…" Stacy paused and turned to the board member she was speaking with."I will catch up with you later sir." She said."Sure, go ahead, Ma'am. You did an excellent presentation. Looking forward to more from you." The Man said with a handshake and left."Shall we?" Stacy asked."Sure." The assistant answered and took the lead, while Stacy followed her.They arrived at the waiting room close to her office and she was shocked to see the guest."Liam!" She muttered and looked at her assistant."He is the guest?" Stacy asked, looking surprised.The assistant was scared.."Yes Ma'am, is there any problem?" She asked and Stacy looked at Liam, he flas
Kelly and Stacy alighted at the ice cream shop.It has been their favorite ice cream shop since childhood and of course, Kelly insisted on driving the brand new Lamborghini Mr Sky got for Stacy.They sat down, and the waiter joined them shortly."Good day Ma'am. Would you like to place your order?" The waiter asked with a sweet smile."Um, my sister is pregnant." Kelly giggled and Stacy opened her mouth."Wow, congratulations, I'm happy for you." The waiter beamed."Yeah, that means she will love to taste all the flavors, so bring all the flavors you have." Kelly said firmly and refused to laugh."Sure, right away." The waiter said, flashed them a smile and left to get their orders ready."You are insane, Kelly, hope you know that!" Stacy groaned."Yeah, insane because I told the waiter you are pregnant? Girl, I need the world to know I'm soon going to become an aunt, and if that happens, I'm gonna shut down the whole city, huhooo." Kelly exclaimed and Stacy just shrugged at her silli
