Hi my dearest readers, happy reading. Blessings
Thorne Ferguson was in his office lost in thought when his phone started ringing. He picked up his phone and said, “Speak.”His bodyguard, who was tasked with shadowing Stella Fox, replied, “Sir, Mrs Stella Fox has sold her mansion. She is currently staying in the hotel.” Thorne thanked the bodyguard, and then they hung up.Thorne dialed Archie Lane’s number. When it was connected, he said, “Hello, Archie. Please hack Stella Fox's phone. I want to know who she is talking to. My gut feeling tells me that there is more than meets the eye.” Then they hung up.When Stella Fox returned to the country, Geoffrey handed her a burner phone. He told her to use the burner phone every time she wanted to talk to the Miller family.A few minutes later, Archie called Thorne and said, “Thorne, Mrs Fox has been communicating with the Fox family. Her mother-in-law is seriously ill, and she wants to ask for forgiveness from her and Amanda.Her late husband’s sister indicated that her mother wanted to ret
At the Wells Private Hospital, Bella had been in a coma for four days. She opened her eyes in the wee hours of Saturday morning. She felt that something was off.She looked around and started panicking when she saw that she was not in her bedroom. What was this place?It dawned on her that she was in the hospital when she saw the white ceiling and the beeping sound of the machines. How could she end up in the hospital? She was in excellent health.Bella looked around to see if there was a nurse in the ward, but she was alone in the hospital ward. She was so thirsty, she wanted to drink water. She tried to call someone but her voice was hoarse.At that moment, Nurse Clara walked into the ward. She beamed when she saw that Bella was awake. She took a glass and poured warm water for her. Then she fed her water with a straw.Nurse Clara looked at her with eyes full of concern and asked, “I am Nurse Clara. How are you feeling, Miss Earl?” Bella looked at the nurse with questioning eyes and
Mrs Earl looked sharply at her daughter and asked, “Did your father say something to you?” Bella nodded her head and replied, “After I woke up, I was so excited then I called Daddy to find out when he was visiting me.His voice was cold and distant, Mom. He told me not to call him again. I don’t know what I have done wrong to upset Daddy. So, please tell me what happened between me and Daddy before the accident.” Her mother’s heart ached when she heard that her husband was so heartless to her beloved daughter and replied, “Your father wanted us to attend a counseling session as a family to reconcile with our estranged daughter, Penny.However, you didn’t attend the counseling session because it was your friend, Cynthia’s birthday.To teach you a lesson, your father blocked your bank cards. When you were supposed to settle your bill, you discovered that your bank cards were blocked. In the end, you asked me to pay two hundred thousand rand for your alcohol debt.”Bella couldn’t believe
It was the first time her father asked for her opinion. She was overwhelmed with sweetness. She flashed her father a beautiful smile and replied, “I am looking for a home that when I see it will take my breath away.I want a house that will give me the feeling that when the Architect was designing it he had me in his mind.”Her father and her fiancé were stunned when they heard Penny’s words. They thought she would tell them that she looking for a big mansion with a number of rooms or a gourmet kitchen.Then Clement drove the car to Los Angeles to see the first mansion. It was a three-story house with seven bedrooms and it had stunning views. However, it didn’t stir Penny’s heart.Her father looked at her and asked, “What do you think, Sweetheart?” Penny shook her head and replied, “Let’s view other mansions, Daddy.” The real estate agent was disappointed because that was the most expensive mansion.Her father nodded his head then they followed the real estate agent’s car. When they ar
At the Wells Private Hospital, after her mother left, Bella took her phone and searched for the footage of the car accident on social media, but she couldn’t find it.She remembered her mother mentioning that on the day of the accident, she was celebrating Cynthia’s birthday party. It was clear that she had a good relationship with Cynthia since she paid two hundred thousand rand for her. Bella dialed Cynthia’s phone number. When it was connected she said, “Hello, Cynthia. Do you mind visiting me at the hospital?”Cynthia was overjoyed when she heard Bella’s voice and replied, “Hello, Bella. How are you feeling? I am so happy, my friend, that you are awake.Your mother has banned me from visiting you. She told me that I am a bad influence on you and that I am treating you as an ATM, which is not true.Ever since we became friends I have never asked you even a cent. On my birthday, you offered to buy everyone alcohol. However, after your accident, your mother asked me to pay back the m
Mrs Earl didn’t know how she got into her car. Her mascara was running down her face. She was devastated. She never thought her life would turn like that.She thought the love they shared with Roman was strong. Unfortunately, it was her wishful thinking.She had hired a car for a month because she didn’t see herself taking taxis. She wished she had come by Uber because she wasn’t in the right state of mind to drive.She considered requesting an Uber, but she was afraid to leave her hired car in the hospital parking lot.When she thought of the way Bella had looked at her, she wished she could just vanish from the face of the earth.Mrs Earl blamed Cynthia for everything. She felt that she sent the wrong video clip on purpose to avenge herself for the slap she gave her.She would never forgive Cynthia for destroying the relationship between her and her beloved daughter. Tears were flowing uncontrollably down her face.Three hours later, Mrs Earl pulled herself together, then she drove h
When Celia arrived at the restaurant, Ives’ mother, Sarah Clinton, was already there drinking tea. She had lost a lot of weight and she looked old.Sarah smiled at her best friend and said, “Thank you for coming, my dearest friend. I miss you so much. I have ordered your favourite coffee.” Then the waiter brought the coffee to their table.Celia smiled back at her best friend and replied, “Sarah, I am sorry that I didn’t give you a chance to hear the side of your story.”Sarah smiled brightly and said, “It’s water under the bridge, Celia. The first time I saw Penny, I wanted her to be my daughter-in-law. However, I have never forced my son to pursue her.I showed my son Penny’s photo and I told him to work hard so that he wouldn’t be inferior to Penny.Celia, I have never coveted something that doesn’t belong to me. I heard that they had been dating for eight years, but Ives never told me.”Celia looked at her friend and replied, “I am so disappointed in your son, Celia. I thought he w
In South Africa, Jeff Cliff decided to visit Paula in prison. He wanted to set the record straight and set the boundaries. He would never tolerate anyone who was trying to interfere in his relationship with Ava.Paula was sitting on the edge of the bed since her bed was wet. Dolly and her lackeys had poured a bucket of cold water on her bed. She screamed, but the prison warden ignored her.When the prison warden told her that she had a visitor, she was over the moon. She thought it was her beloved Thorne. She couldn’t understand why Thorne was ignoring her after his family visited the Cage family for a betrothed gift ceremony.When Paula saw Jeff, her heart sank. She looked at him with sadness in her eyes and asked, “Jeff, how could you do this to me? I heard that you registered your marriage with that woman, Ava. Didn’t I tell you that Ava is a bad woman? Do you think your parents would allow you to marry someone like Ava? Jeff, I will never allow any woman to take you away from me.
When Bryce and Amelia arrived at the Durban Correctional Services, they requested to see Miss Cage. They were ushered into the interrogation room.A few minutes later, Paula walked to the interrogation room. She smirked when she saw Bryce. She sat down and asked, “What do you want, Bryce?”Bryce looked at his wife, nodded his head, then Amelia looked at Paula and said, “Miss Cage, please note that your court case has been set for the 18th and 19th of this month. Please prepare yourself.”Paula was shocked and asked, “How could you set my court date since you know I don’t have a lawyer?”Amelia’s gaze was cold, and she asked, “Whose fault was that, Miss Cage? Didn’t you fire your lawyer because of incompetence?”Paula looked at her and replied, “I made a mistake, Prosecutor Zibi. Where is Miss Bernie?”Amelia shook her head and said, “Senior Prosecutor May is on vacation leave. Do you need me to help you with anything, Miss Cage?”Paula was taken aback when she heard Doreen’s last name
Thorne understood where his grandmother was coming from. She wanted to hold her great-grandchildren before she went to heaven.Thorne looked at his grandmother and asked, “Grandma, I have been asking for forgiveness for months, but you are refusing to forgive me. Am I not your grandson?”His Grandma stopped and looked back at her grandson. She smiled and replied, “My grandson, I have forgiven you a long time ago. However, I don’t want Michaela to be your wife again. She would be better off without you, my grandson.You are so cruel. I don’t know who you took after because your grandfather and your father are kind-hearted. Also, you have an ungrateful heart. If you can search deep in your heart, you will find that you don’t love Michaela.It’s just that she was your backup plan. The only person you truly loved was Paula Cage. After you discovered that she wasn’t the woman you thought she was, you convinced yourself that you loved Michaela, but it is not true.”There was a hint of irrita
On the way home, Mr Ferguson Senior looked at his daughter-in-law and said, “Please don’t tell my grandson about Michaela’s gift. I don’t want him to misunderstand.”Before Gail could respond, her mother-in-law chuckled and replied, “Hubby, the package was received and opened by Thorne. He also saw Michaela’s note.He immediately called his private investigator, Archie, and asked him to track down Michaela. Then he took his car keys and left. I think he is with Archie right now.”Her husband shook his head and said, “I don’t think they would be able to find Michaela.”Gail took her phone and dialed her beloved son’s number. When it was connected, she said, “Thorne, your grandfather has been discharged from the hospital. Did Archie manage to find Michaela?”Thorne shook his head and replied, “Michaela sent a boy to the post office to courier Grandpa’s medication. We are trying to track down this young man. Maybe he will be able to give us more information about Michaela’s whereabouts.M
At the Saxon estate, Michaela looked at their grandfather and said, “Grandpa, I heard that Grandpa Ferguson has been hospitalized for the past two weeks.If I had known earlier, I would have sent the Longevity Health Supplements when we were in Zanzibar.”Grandpa Saxon was moved by his granddaughter-in-law’s thoughtfulness and replied, “You are such a good child, my precious granddaughter-in-law. There is a Saxon flight flying to South Africa that is leaving in three hours.We can give the package to the pilot and ask my bodyguard to fetch it from him when they land in South Africa. Then he can courier it to the Ferguson mansion.”Michaela thanked her Grandpa, and she then went to their bedroom. She took six gold cases of Longevity Health Supplements.She wrapped the gold cases, then she put them in a small box. She wrote a note and said, “Get well soon, Grandpa.” Then she signed her name.While Michaela was preparing the package, Grandpa Saxon called the pilot and informed him about t
After David and Doreen exchanged their vows, the newlyweds and their entourage went outside to take photos. They also took photos with their colleagues and friends.Half an hour later, the guests went to the lavishly decorated ballroom for the reception. The DJ played a romantic song, then the newlyweds, together with their best man, Matron of Honour, groomsmen, and bridesmaids, entered the ballroom dancing.The MC, Damon Steel, was standing on the stage smiling from ear to ear. He looked at the guests and said, “I would like to take this opportunity to welcome everyone to the wedding of David and Doreen. You look so beautiful.” The guests clapped their hands.Then Damon looked at David and said, “Congratulations, David, for receiving a favour from the Lord. You have found a good wife." He looked at the guests and said, "I have been notified that the food is ready.” He then prayed for the food.At that moment, His Faithfulness Resort Chef and the waiters delivered the food to the venue
At the Bernie villa at 10 am, Doreen was in her bedroom with her sister-in-law, Imogen, the bridesmaids and the flower girl waiting for the make-up artist.Last night, the make-up artist promised she would be at the resort by 9 am. Imogen tried calling her several times, but it went straight to voicemail. Imogen was starting to panic because the wedding was starting at noon.At that moment, the resort's stylist team walked into Doreen’s bedroom. They greeted the bride-to-be and said, “We have been sent by our manager to help you and your bridesmaids with make-up.”Doreen understood that it was Mrs Saxon who sent them and said, “Thank you very much.” Then they started doing the make-up.An hour later, Doreen was gorgeous in a strapless Mermaid wedding gown. The cathedral-length veil was gracefully sitting on the bun. Her make-up was flawless, creating a sophisticated look.The Matron of Honour, Imogen and the bridesmaids were stunning in rust floor-length dresses.The flower girl was we
At the May mansion, Grandma May was so excited that she bought Cashmere soft yarn and started knitting baby clothes. Doreen’s parents wished that they could move to the May mansion. They were very happy.It was the 27th of December, but David and Doreen’s wedding venue was still not available. The wedding invitation cards had already been sent. The Wedding Planner and the florist had already been paid.However, there was no anxiety in Doreen’s heart. She was just waiting for the Lord to come through for her. The Lord had never failed her before. She had faith that nothing is impossible with the Lord.At noon, David and his wife were in their bedroom resting. Doreen was nestled in her husband’s arms when her phone started ringing.She looked at the caller ID, but it was an unfamiliar number. Something told her to answer the phone, and she said, “Hello.”A young lady’s voice replied, “Hello, Miss Bernie. My name is Sihle. I am calling you from His Faithfulness Resort. There has been a ca
On Christmas Day, the May family was hosting the Bernie family. They were sitting in the dining room, enjoying sumptuous food. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious. They were chatting and laughing.Doreen took a piece of turkey and started chewing, then a feeling of nausea overwhelmed her. She put her hand in her mouth and rushed to the bathroom. Her husband trailed behind.While Doreen was vomiting, David was patting her small back. Then Grandma May fed her some water. David looked at his wife with concern in his eyes and asked, “How are you feeling, Sweetheart?”Doreen looked at her husband and replied, “I don’t know what is wrong with me, my love. This week, every time I eat, I feel like vomiting.”Grandma May was over the moon and asked, “When was the last time you had your period?”Doreen looked at Grandma May and replied, “Last month, my periods were very light. This month, my periods are late by five days, Grandma.”Grandma May was beside herself with excitement and said, “My
Storm’s Private Jet landed safely at Zanzibar International Airport. The resort driver was waiting for them on their arrival, carrying a placard with their names. The driver took them to the Zanzibar Resort.On their way to the resort, Michaela was captivated by the beauty of the landscape and started taking photos of the scenery. The resort was surrounded by lush tropical gardens and palm trees.After Storm and his wife checked in, they went to their villa. It was designed to blend traditional elegance with modern comfort. Michaela smiled brightly at her husband and said, “Honey, this resort took my breath away, Honey. Thank you for loving me.” Storm took her in his arms and replied, “You are welcome, my stunning wife.”Then Storm took his phone and dialed his grandfather’s phone. When it was connected, he said, “Hello, Grandpa. We arrived safely.”Grandpa Saxon beamed and replied, “The Lord is faithful, my precious grandson. Please don’t forget to send photos to your mother.
