I thought about everything, and the words they said made me feel like I can achieve so many more if I dont depend on John’s black card.“I am in with you” I said my voice firm, Mr Albert smiled and exchanged pleasantries with me, he collected my phone number and promised to get in touch with me.As I stepped down from his car, I breathe well and stretched my body feeling the air. I stepped into the car and Victoria was already sleeping, I drove the car and packed into the mansion. Victoria suddenly woke up and was glad that we had reached home, “I am so exhausted” she said as she stepped down from the car, we both walked into the mansion and saw Louis playing with Nina, Victoria also joined them, seeing them happy makes me feel great and thought it was a good idea I accepted such offer. BACK AT JOHN’S MANSIONJohn stormed into the mansion, he walked back into the bedroom and threw away everything on Mirabel’s mirror in anger, Annie walked in and exclaimed “What have you done?” sh
After Annie had successfully manipulated John, she wa very happy and she felt relieved that everything was going accordingly. Suddenly they heard a knock on the door, it was Diana, she walked in and and Saw Annie sitting at the edge of the bed.Diana's face twisted in frustration, her voice rising to a shout. "Just because you're pregnant for your boss, no I shoudnt put it that way, just because you slept with a married man, doesn't give you the right to just act anyhow! Get out." she spat, her anger palpable.Annie's eyes flashed with anger, but she bit back her retort. Instead, she slowly rose from her chair, her movements deliberate and controlled. She walked out of the room, leaving Diana's angry words hanging in the air.John gazed after her, wondering why she had come to his room in the first place. He turned back to Diana, who was still fuming."You slept with your maid and now you have no shame," she said, her voice dripping with venom.John's face reddened, his eyes dropping
I drove back to the mansion, I couldn’t wait to tell Victoria everything that happened, I stormed into the mansion without packing the stuffs I bought, they both seemed shock with my sudden arrival.“You wont expect what happened to me today” I said my voice barely above a whisper. Victoria rushed to me and collapsed on the chair, “I bought something worth over $0 thousand but a young man whom I knew nothing about paid for everything” I saidVictoria gasped “Are you for real? He payed for everything and you dont know him?” she askedI nodded “You know me too well, I dont have any Male friends or anybody, I am seriously surprised about what happened” I saidLouis cleared her throat “I dont know If you are thinking it the way I am, but my best advice for you is stay away men not even now when John is planning to file for the custody of Nina, he is going to try his possible best to win this case” he saidI and Victoria gasped, we did not even think it that way “oh my goodness, I didnt ev
The doctor was attending to her, while she was outside praying as she gazed up, she saw John and Annie walking out of he doctors office, I knew she came for a check up or antenatal, she wanted to storm at him but Victoria stopped me and told me to calm down.“Well-done John” Mirabel said her voice trembling“What are you doing here?” He askedMirabel glared at him for a while without a response but then the doctor came out and told her that her daughter’s condition is now stable“What is wrong?” he asked again“Nina is sick” Victoria saidAnnie chuckled “You cant even take care of your own daughter? Now I see.. i think John has every reasons to take that child away from you” she saidAs Mirabel was about to speak up, Victoria raised her hand and gave her a hit on her face.“They are both husband and wife, they are talking about their child and you homewrecker has the right to interfere? You have a lot of guts, don’t you?” Victoria yelled at herMirabel's eyes widened in shock as John
As we entered the mansion, Louis walked straight to Nina's room so she would place her in her bed.“I will go cook” I said, and walked to the kitchenVictoria smiled “No let me do it, I will cook I am so sorry I don't want you to spoil the food, because you arent in your right senses now" she said and walked to the kitchen, I followed her because I needed someone to talk to.As she was picking some plates and pots ready to cook, I moved closer to her “Vic..” I said my voice low and firm“Uhmm?” She answered and continued what she was doing “What if I divorce John? Will anybody marry a single mom?” I asked my voice barely above a whisperShe chuckled “Hey common, nobody wishes to be a single mom, it's not what they want but it's what happens, and you dont have a choice, begin a single mom isnt a disease, bet with my babe you will meet a man who will love you for who you are not someone like that monster” she said “What If they want me and dont want my child?” I asked again“Heal firs
“I will be right there” I said my voice barely above a whisper and drove off to his mansion immediately.As I drove up to the entrance of the mansion, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the sheer scale and opulence of the estate. The mansion was a sprawling, modern masterpiece, with sleek lines and gleaming surfaces that seemed to stretch on forever. The entrance was flanked by two imposing stone pillars, and the doors themselves were made of solid glass, etched with intricate patterns that sparkled in the sunlight.“Oh my goodness, this is wealth” I murmured silently to myselfAs I pulled up to the entrance, two men dressed in black suits emerged from the shadows, their eyes scanning me with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. One of them stepped forward, his hand outstretched. "Good morning, Miss Mirabel. Welcome to the estate. May I take your keys?"I hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. But the man's smile was reassuring, and I handed over my keys. He nodded, to
As I drove out of the mansion, I called my lawyer that I was coming, as I reached her office door, she gestured her hand for me to come in.“Welcome Miss Mirabel” she said I nodded and smiled “Thank you and let's talk and get over it please” I said feeling anxious“Okay..”she said “So may I ask why you want to file for a divorce?” She asked “He cheated on me” I said “So you want to leave because he cheated?” She asked, I felt so irritated with her question.“So you want me to stay and watch him do me dirty?” I asked in angerShe smiled “You two have a daughter together, did you not think about your daughter?” I asked I glared at her for a minute, unsure of what to say but I knew I had few questions for her in return but I dont know how to say it in a proper way.“Are you married?” I asked“No” she said “You arent married so how on earth are you going to know and understand how I am feeling and what I am going through?” I asked “Even if I wasnt married I am a woman and I know wha
As I drove home, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. The weight of the day's events was still heavy on my mind, but knowing that I had Victoria and Louis waiting for me at home made all the difference.Victoria was already waiting for me at the entrance, a warm smile on her face. I parked the car and walked towards her, feeling a sense of comfort in her presence. She opened her arms for a hug, and I fell into them, feeling a sense of safety and security.She hugged me tight and patted me on the back. "It's fine… everything is going to be okay, you divorced him so be happy." she said, her voice soft and soothing.I broke the hug and walked into the house, dropping my bag on the floor. "Louis, can you come over here for a minute? I have something Important to tell you two" I called out, needing to share the important information with them.They both sat opposite me, their faces filled with concern. I cleared my throat, trying to gather my thoughts."I have something
As I slowly opened my eyes, blinking away the fog of sleep, a gentle sense of peace settled over me. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt like myself again. The weakness that had gripped my body was finally gone. The endless days of pain and uncertainty had melted away like a bad dream. I inhaled deeply, savoring the feeling of strength and renewal coursing through my veins. The air tasted sweeter, the light filtering through the curtains seemed warmer. I had come back to life, and it was a beautiful morning.The door to my room creaked open softly, and I turned my head to see Raymond standing in the doorway. His face lit up as soon as our eyes met, his expression a mixture of relief and love that made my heart ache with emotion. He rushed over to my side, kneeling by the bed and taking my hands in his, holding them as if I were the most precious thing in the world."You're awake," he breathed, his voice thick with emotion. "You're really awake."I smiled, squeezing hi
Reports coming everywhere told us that Aliana was on her way to the airport. We rushed there but then I couldn't take it anymore. I told Ryan to stop the car, and the other convoy also stopped.“Kate, come with me” I said and we walked into one of the cars, the body guards stepped down and joined the third car.“Mirabel what on earth are you doing?” Raymond yelled at me “Kate knows how to drive, let's split into three, I will face her at the other side of the road” I said and Kate drove off immediately.As we continued driving, the road grew busier, and I kept a close eye on Ryan's car. "What's the color of her car?" I asked him, my voice firm and focused."Its black," he replied, rattling off the license plate number.Just then, Aliana took a wrong turn, unaware of our presence. She saw my car approaching and tried to turn back, but it was too late. Raymond's car blocked her path, trapping her. I leapt out of the car, sprinting towards her with Kate close behind."Let go of Ethan,
MIRABELThe day had been long and exhausting, but the weight of uncertainty had kept me awake. Ethan's DNA test had been the final thread holding together years of questions, doubts, and sleepless nights. I had to know if he was truly mine, if the child I had always wondered about had been in my arms all along.I walked out of the room. My heart was pounding, the paper heavy with the truth I had been searching for. The hallway felt endless as I made my way toward Raymond, who was standing at the edge of the room, his eyes full of concern. Ryan, Louis, and Victoria sat nearby, their faces reflecting the same worry that had been haunting all of us."I did a DNA test on Ethan," I said, my voice barely above a whisper.Raymond straightened up, his eyes locking onto mine. The room fell into an eerie silence as everyone stood up,their gaze on me"How did it turn out?" Ryan asked, his voice hesitant, as if he was bracing himself for the worst.I swallowed hard, the words caught in my throat.
As the last wisps of Emma's life slipped away, Annie's own vitality began to wane. The relentless pursuit of vengeance, the endless cycle of pain and anger, had finally taken its toll. She felt the weight of her exhaustion, the crushing burden of her grief, and knew she could fight no more. She knew she didn't have to fight for anything anymore, John was already down, he had lost his company, and a lot of people.With a heavy heart, Annie bid farewell to the opulent halls of John's mansion, leaving behind the only life she had known for so long. She turned her back on the memories, both bitter and sweet, and walked away from the two people who had become her unlikely family Andrew and little Ethan.As she disappeared into the horizon, Annie sought a fresh start, a new dawn where the shadows of her past wouldn't haunt her. She yearned for a place to heal, to rediscover herself, and to find solace in the quiet rhythms of an ordinary life.The wind whispered secrets in her ear, of a tomo
As Emma reached the hotel, she texted Annie and told her she was at the hotel but Annie said it out in the house, a secret that was meant to be kept.“Why would Emma go to a hotel?” She asked her gaze on Aliana and Andrew “Really?” Aliana asked Annie nodded, Aliana now realized that Emma was the one who was standing at the entrance of her room, she smiled and turned her gaze at Annie “Which hotel is she staying at? We have to go check on her and ask her why she is staying in there” Aliana said, but before Annie could speak up, the maid broke a plate, Annie got furious and rushed over to her questioning her why would break a plate. Aliana rolled her eyes in anger, she just needed few seconds. Annie was about to open us but the maid messed things up.Annie walked back into the living room so she could finish what she started with Aliana but her phone beeped again.“Do not tell anybody it's for our safety”.Annie's eyes widened and immediately, she stood up and walked into her room, s
---Aliana stormed out of the living room, her heels striking the marble floor with a sharp staccato rhythm as she marched toward the hallway that led to her room. Her face was twisted in anger, her mind consumed by the sudden return of Mirabel and the unexpected chaos she had brought with her. The very sight of her standing in that living room, alive and full of confidence, had shaken Aliana to her core. She had been so certain Mirabel was out of the picture, so sure that the past she’d buried would remain there hidden.But now, everything was unraveling.Slamming the door behind her, Aliana entered her bedroom, her hands trembling as she locked it. She leaned against the heavy oak door for a moment, closing her eyes and trying to steady her breathing. Her heart was pounding in her chest, adrenaline coursing through her veins. She had worked so hard to keep everything under control, to maintain the facade of the perfect life she had built with Andrew. And now, in a single night, Mira
And after the joyful night,they all drifted off to sleep.8AM IN THE MORNING.Raymond woke up but he didnt to disturb her so Kate told him about her schedule and he woke her up. Mirabel walked into the bathtube and she took her bath, fews minutes later she came out and she dressed. She walked into the grand living room and saw Kate, she had already been waiting for her.“Where are you going? What are your plans for today?” Raymond askedMirabel smiled “I am going to visit John and his family, I have to personally announce my arrival to them, I bet they would be so shock by now” she said Raymond nodded “Be careful, I have something to tell you if you are back” he said “What is it about? Can't you just tell me now? I am always eager when it comes to something like this” she said Raymond smirked “Its something we need to sit and talk about” Mirabel nodded and slid into the car and they drove off to John's mansion.---As the black SUV rolled up the winding drive to John's mansion, th
It was around past 7 in the night, Mirabel stayed at the lodge because she doesnt know she would interact with Louis and the rest yet. Just as she slept off, Kate just decided to check on her in the room because she left her food on the table, as she touched her, she noticed that she was burning up.“Ma'am” Kate said as she began to tap herMirabel woke up slowly “I am not dead yet relax, I would finish my revenge before I die” she said her voice shaking and low.Kate smirked “here is a drug, I bought this incase of emergencies like this” she said and handed her a drug.Mirabel trusted Kate so much so she used the drug and slept off.9 AM IN THE MORNINGKate decided not to wake her up but she brought her the lotha she would wear, she placed them on the couch as she turned to leave Mirabel called her.“I am awake” she said and Kate stopped in her tracks.“Good morning ma'am” Kate said Mirabel nodded “Let's go to Raymond” she said and walked into the bathroom, after she finished her b
~Everyone was happy that Georgina wasn't on his side, Mrs Ava spoke up.“We have decided to make Mrs Georgina the head now” she said and turned to John “Come back when you are in your right senses” she said and clapped for Georgina.Georgina smiled, bowing for them, she kept smiling her teeth out she gazed at Annie and smiled at her.“It's alright” she said as she stopped them.The room had fallen eerily silent. A sense of unease crawled over the crowd as Georgina's voice cut through the quiet like a razor-sharp blade. "I am afraid you are cheering for the wrong person,I am not the one you people should cheer for" she said, her voice low yet commanding. The air in the conference room thickened with tension. Faces once lit with admiration for John now turned to Georgina, eyes narrowing, trying to understand what had just happened.The applause died. John’s confident smile wavered, confusion clouding his features. As he opened his mouth to say something, the door behind him swung open
