She quickly scanned through her wardrobe, searching for the best one among her work clothes to put on. She finally settled for one after scanning, she had scattered her clothes all over the place in the process. But she felt arranging them now would take so much time and she was late already.

She would just do it when she gets back from work.

She was about setting out when she noticed the hand band that Adonis had given to her, she still had it on. Agitated, she peeled it off her wrist and tossed it in the drawer close to her bed.

"We should go now" she said to Mia as she came downstairs.

When Mary arrived at work, she noticed quite a number of people in the lobby, they seemed to be looking at something interesting in the tv, only that this particular thing might not really be as interesting as it should be after all, because instead of the excited face she expected to see, they all had different unexplainable expressions on their faces. Some of them had blank expression on thei

    Mary twisted the door handle and opened bit fully, walking into the house it looks calm as ever, and empty too. Mary was not sure if Adonis was home already or not. Taking a walk around the house, apart from all the other domestic help, there was no sign of any other person in the house. She wondered why Adonis was yet to come back, it was quite late already. She was tempted bro think that he probably did not agree to sign over the mineral to the government. 'How silly' She thought. She went straight to Emma's room to check up on her, thankfully the doctor was there, she had come around to check up on her. She greeted the doctor and walked inside. "Is there an improvement?" She asked concerned. "She has really shown some signs of improvement within the last few hours, that is good news". Mary nodded. "So when are we expecting her to be awake?" She asked again. "I can not really tell when she would be awake, but hopefully very soon. I just moderated her drip" Mary nodded

    Mary shuddered even more, her heart beat even faster as she felt him hold unto her arm and prevented her from bending down. He pulled her up so that she could look into his face. Mary tried to keep her eyes down so that she would not have to look into his face. "You don't have to bother yourself okay?" He said softly, but Mary felt he was being sarcastic. "I would just simply ask another maid to clean it up" he still held unto her hand. Mary was surprised for a while. "You don't look okay" he said again. He took her hand and led her away from the chaos in the kitchen. "Are you not happy to see me?" He asked with a smile on his face, a smile that looked more like a smirk. "Or did anyone annoy you before my arrival?" He asked again. Mary did not know what to make out of the whole situation, but she told herself that she was probably over acting and she should try to act normal. She tried to paint a smile on her face, but she failed woefully. What was supposed to come out as a sm

    Mary blinked repeatedly hoping to get rid of the fear in her eyes, she did not want him seeing the fear in her eyes and knowing how scared she was of him. He too blinked from reflex, and looked away. Then he turned to look at her and continued his story again. "This particular day, I was trying to sneak into my house with the fruits, just like the way you were about to run now" he said looking directly into her eyes. Mary was frozen for a moment, her heart skipped several beats as she heard him say that. His rapt attention focused directly on her face, like he was trying to read her facial expression. "Well..... This my neighbor caught me sneaking, and then I stood frozen in front of him, expecting to get scolded for the fruits. Can you guess what he said to me then?" Mary shook her head, wondering why he was asking her, why was he sharing the story with her anyways. "Well —" he squeezed her hand even more tightly. "He said why are you running when no one is after you". S

    They stared into each other's eyes for sometime, until Adonis broke the eye contact. "I'm off to bed, I'm feeling sleepy already" he said dropping the slice of pizza he had in his hand and getting up from the chair. "You can have the rest of the pizza in case you get hungry" he said looking down at her, and just like that he as gone. "What an audacity" Mary said angrily after he was gone. She looked at the time, it was almost midnight. "I had better go to bed lest I suffer a fatigue tomorrow" she said before she stood up. She looked at the box of pizza on the ground, ignoring it and not giving it a second thought she walked away with a sneer on her face. That night Mary locked her room door, because she was scared of Adonis. She was scared that he could come into her room while she was asleep at night and do something bad to her. She was even more scared of him because he was unpredictable, she could not even know what he was thinking. Why tell her thst story from hi

    Mary was immediately alarmed, she did not know why. She stood up and started walking towards the house. Just as she was approaching the house, Adonis came out of the house holding a brief case in his hand. He looked towards her direction and let out what she felt as a weak smile. He was immediately led into the car by the men and they drove off immediately. Mary understood they were probably government officials, but what she did not understand was where they were taking Adonis to. Although it did not look like he was getting arrested again. Mary went back to seat in the garden, she did not have anything to do in the house and she did not want to go to her newspaper office, because Adonis could be back at anytime and she did not want him getting suspicious. She she had to just sit around doing nothing in particular. When the sun started to rise, Mary decided to go to her room, maybe have a nap. As she was making her way to her room she got a call from Mia, she picked up t

    By the time Mary got home, it was already evening and the sun had started to set. She had expected Adonis to be back by now, but she was surprised to see that he was not yet back. She decided to use that opportunity to search his study, she still could not believe that the reason she had come to his house, and the same reason she had always ran around trying to search his study all the time was finally over. Mary laughed at all the things she had done in the past out of desperation to find out something tangible she could present to her boss. There were some stacks of papers on the table, Mary sat on his chair and started picking them up one after the other to read. They were just some official documents that Mary did not understand anyways. She left his office and started walking towards her next target, which was his secret room he had claimed in the past was out of bound. Mary opened the door, expecting some difficulties as usual but to her biggest surprise the door gave wa

    By the time the doctor arrived, Mary was able to calm Emma down, she assured her that once the doctor leave they would both go to the police together. While Mary was still trying to figure out what to do in that situation, she heard a knock on the door. Mary's heart jumped into her mouth, she appeared visibly shaken. She thought that Adonis was probably back, she turned to look at Emma, she had the same reaction as her. Noticing that Emma was also scared, Mary tried her best to assure her that she was safe. She gestures to her to be quiet as she approached the door with a table knife in hand. She stood by the door, placing her hand on the handle she forcefully pushed the door open. She was shocked and relieved at the same time as she saw who was at the door. It was the doctor. Mary heaved a sigh of relief and moved out of the way for the doctor bro come in, hiding the knife behind her so that they doctor does not see it and gets apprehensive. Mary stood impatiently at the do

    Mary had her heart hung in her mouth, she swallowed hard having no idea how to handle the situation at hand. She was about challenging him and finally get to tell him to his face that he was a pathetic and and psychotic killer that would not mind harming his own grandmother just to cover up his mess. She was about about open up her mouth to cuss him when he pulled out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at them. Mary quickly pushed Emma behind her, but it seemed like she pushed too hard because the old woman ended up falling to the ground. Mary's mouth snapped shut as she looked at Adonis, all the curses she had originally planned to rain on him hung in her throat. "What are you trying to do?" He asked, his voice sounding more mean than it had sounded earlier. His eyes had gone blood shut, Mary feared that he had gone mad and would kill the both of them without thinking twice. Mary could not help but think if this was the same way Adonis had killed his parents, if this was th

    "Ahhhhh!" Mia screamed as she saw the ring on Mary's finger, this time around Mary did not try to stop her from screaming, she allowed her scream out her lungs even though everyone in the restaurant were now watching them. "You mean you are getting married to Adonis Scott? How could so much happen within such a short period?" Mia asked surprised. "Even I have no idea" Mary said with a smile as she looked at the ring in her finger. "I have no idea either". "Would you make me your chief bridesmaid?" Mia asked with a smile. "Of course Mary said" They talked happily about random things, and how beautiful Mary's wedding would be. Mary herself was anticipating the wedding, she could not wait to see how beautiful her wedding would be. They had already started preparations for the wedding, and it was even like a double celebration for Mary because Clay also got a big contract that would change the life of his company forever and make it known."What do you think about this?"

    Mary was taken aback by what she saw on the sky, she looked back at the object in her hand again, it was a ring, and it looked expensive. Mary felt like she was dreaming, this could be one of those her countless fantasies that she had always thought would never come to pass. She quickly looked back at Adonis and saw him walking towards her with a smile on his face. He got close to her and took the ring from her hand. "Will you marry me" he voiced out. Mary was perplexed beyond description, she could not believe what her ears were hearing. She slowly pinched herself to be sure she was not dreaming. Adonis laughed as he saw her pinch herself. "I guess I should help you do that" Adonis said and pinched her arm softly. "Ouch!" Mary exclaimed laughing. "Now tell me" Adonis said. "Will you marry me". "Yes!" Mary nodded excitedly, she could not control her excitement, Adonis himself could not control the smile that spread out on his face as he slid the ring into her finger.

    "So how did you feel on that day after witnessing two murders? I know it must have been a traumatic event for you". Mary said. "It indeed was" Adonis answered, "especially the thoughts of loosing my mother on that day. But Emma was there for me to help me over come it, she never left my side". "That is the reason you love her so much, she deserves all the love you show to her". "Exactly....." Adonis said. "After she took me and fled that city, we were always going from one thatched house to the other, living from hand to mouth. Sometimes I would watch my grandmother beg in the streets in order to give make sure I had something to eat". Mary took his hand and squeezed it, she never would have believed that Adonis had gone through such hardship as a child. "Emma sacrificed a lot for me, she later started doing menial jobs so she was able to afford to pay for a small place in the outskirts of the city". "I guess that was where you met the neighbor who always caught you with

    "So why did you still chose to keep me after you found out?" "Well..." He took another sip from his glass of wine while staring at her. "I kind of noticed you were making progress with my grandmother, so I choose to let you stay. Hoping you would see the good in me and forfeit your mission" Mary lowered her eyes, she felt even more ashamed of herself once again. "Do you want to know another reason I choose to let you stay at all cost?" Mary shook her head. "Well just like I told you the first day we had met, you are so lovely. You were lovely the first day I saw you, and you still are now" a smile broke out on his face. "It would only take a person with a stone heart not to fall in love with you". On hearing that, Mary immediately dropped the glass of wine she was about taking a sip from and looked up at him sharply. Did he mean that he was in love with her? "I guess you yourself did not have a heart at all, like you told me the first time we met* Mary said. "What do

    Adonis stared at Mary opened mouthed and with wide eyes as she walked towards him, he knew he had asked her to wear something sexy, but this was so hot that it almost too his breath away. With every step she took towards him, his heart beat increased. Causing him to want to take her in his arms and kiss her all night long. A smile spread out on his lips as she walked towards him. "You look beautiful" he said to her as she approached him. He took her hand, gave it a gentle squeeze before he brought it to his lips and kissed it. Mary felt electrifying feelings all over her body as Adonis soft lips made contact with her hand. She bit her lips to prevent a moan from escaping from her mouth. "Shall we?" He asked as he took her hand. She nodded with a smile. Adonis opened the car door for her and gestured for her to get in, Mary got into the car. Adonis got in quickly besides her and helped her fix her seatbelts, even though he knew that she could do it herself, he still felt

    Emma cleared her throat and continued her story. "Seeing what had happened and that someone had found out, I felt that we were no longer safe there, if the police found us out they could take me to jail, and then my Adonis would be left all alone on his own with mo body to take care of him. I did not want that for my grandson, so I took him with me and we fled the town. Once again I had to leave, but this time around with my grandson and not my daughter. We were not able to take anything wutg us, the only thing I was able to take out of that house was a picture of my Lauren, the same picture you have seen hanging there. Because the place had been a ghetto, there was no further investigation on the deaths, the police ruled it out as a clash between rival gangs. Mary still wanted to know why Adonis had tried to harm his grandmother. She asked the question aloud, directing it to Adonis. But Adonis stayed quiet, still staring at her. Emma answered the question instead. "Adonis nev

    Mary looked up at Adonis again only to see him still looking at her. She noticed he had been quiet all along, she felt ashamed to look into his eyes now, she really felt ashamed of what she had done. Emma continued her explanation. "I finally thought that when I presented Adonis to Oscar, I thought that at least he would be happy that he finally had a child with Lauren and stop treating her bad. At first, he became lenient with us and started acting a bit maturely towards us. He would but gifts for Lauren and Adonis. But that did not last long, after quitewa while he resumed his maltreatment on us again. I watched Adonis grow up in the midst of all of these chaos, but I could not do anything about it, I had no power to change anything. I could not even take him away from there because we had no other place to go to. I did not want to return to the streets with my child and grandchild, that would not be good for them. So we stayed. Oscar never showed love to Adonis as a child" M

    Mary and Emma were now sitting on the couch in the sitting room, while Adonis stood there with his hand in his pocket. Mary wondered what Emma meant by saying her grandson was not a murderer. But Adonis had openly admitted in the court that he had killed his parents. Adonis stood there and watched every reaction that appeared on Mary's face as they spoke. "Then why is everyone saying he killed his parents? Why was he arrested?" Mary was even more confused as ever. "You should see him as a hero instead of a murderer" Emma said. Mary looked up at Adonis only to meet his eyes. Mary kept rubbing Emma's arm as she spoke. "Tell me about Adonis parents then" Mary said. "Is the lovely woman in that picture hanging inside that room Adonis's mom?" Mary asked. Emma nodded. "My Lauren, my poor child. She suffered so much until death". Emma said with a sad look on face. "Is she your daughter?" Mary asked, she could not help but ask too many questions. "Yes" Emma said nodding. "S
