Hi my dearest readers, do you think Thorne deserves a second chance? Let's have a conversation in the comment section. Happy reading. Blessings
At the Ball mansion, Mr Ball and his wife, Getty, were in the living room watching a Rugby match between South Africa and New Zealand. Mrs Ball was a staunch supporter of the All Blacks.They were chatting and laughing. Unbeknownst to them the storm was brewing. Their lives would be not the same again.At that moment, someone knocked on the door. They thought it was their daughter, Sloane. Mrs Ball opened the door smiling but her smile froze when she saw the unwelcomed guests.She couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw the ruthless Thorne on her doorstep. She was thinking of shutting the door to their faces but she dismissed that idea.She mustered her courage and invited them to the house. Mr Ferguson followed Mrs Ball to the living room with his bodyguards in tow.Mr Ball nearly peed on his pants when he saw Mr Ferguson enter the living room. Thorne Ferguson was famous for being ruthless.Mr Ball forced a smile and said, “What a pleasant surprise, Mr Ferguson. How may I help you, Sir
After Thorne left the Ball mansion, he went to the mansion he shared with Michaela. When they were still married, Thorne had never visited his wife’s bedroom. Also, Michaela was forbidden to enter the master bedroom.Since Thorne’s heart was stolen by Paula, he decided not to touch his wife in respect of his first love. Their marriage was in name only.When his beloved Paula threatened him that she would disappear again should Thorne fail to get a divorce, Thorne rushed home with a signed divorce agreement.When he arrived home, Michaela was in the living room watching her favourite Telenovela, My Brother’s Keeper.Thorne handed the divorce agreement to her, but Michaela refused to sign the divorce papers. Thorne was so angry that he tore her clothes, then he forced himself on her. Hence, she got pregnant.He went to Michaela’s bedroom and laid down on her bed with his clothes and shoes.He never thought that there would come a time when he would want to see Michaela’s face so desperat
The following day, the Bale couple went to the hospital to visit Getty. Outside the ICU, Mr Bale took out his phone and dialed his brother-in-law. When it was connected, he said, “Brother-in-law, we are outside the ICU.”Mr Ball’s voice was hoarse, and he replied, “I am coming.” His face was haggard as if he was the one who was sick. He greeted the Bale couple and said, “Good morning, there is no change in your sister’s condition.”Mr Bale patted his brother-in-law’s shoulder and asked, “Why don’t you go home to wash and change your clothes? We will keep my sister company.”Mr Ball was reluctant to leave, but his brother-in-law said, “Should my sister wake up while you are at home, I will call you immediately.” He thanked his brother-in-law, then he left.The Bale couple walked to the ICU. They disinfected their hands, then they wore gowns and gloves. Tears welled in Mr Bale’s eyes when he saw his beloved sister’s condition.At that moment, the attending doctor, Dr Sishi, walked in, fo
Since only two people were allowed in the ICU, Mrs Bale kissed her sister-in-law on her forehead and went to the Durban Correctional Services to visit her daughter, June.June’s eyes lit up when she saw her mother. She looked at her mother and asked, “Is everything alright, Mommy?”Her mother shook her head and replied, “Your aunt is in hospital in a coma.” June was so worried that she asked, “What happened to Aunt Getty, Mommy?”Tears flowed uncontrollably down her face and she replied, “Your cousin offended Mr Ferguson. Your aunt didn't take the news well and then she fainted.”June couldn’t believe her ears and asked, “What did my cousin do, Mommy?”Her mother wiped her tears and replied, “Paula fell from the third floor because she was drugged by your cousin, and then she framed Mrs Ferguson. She also destroyed the surveillance footage.”June was utterly speechless. Where did Sloane get the confidence to offend the most ruthless man in the city? She was so scared of her aunt's fami
After Jeff Cliff left Chief Justice Sithole’s chambers, he drove to the hospital to look for Thorne. Since Thorne was permitted to visit Paula, he spent most of the time in Paula’s ward.Yesterday, when the video clip went viral, he was sleeping. He came back early from work because he had a throbbing headache. He took strong painkillers and fell asleep.When he woke up, he was greeted by the video clip that would change his life forever.He had a smug look on his face before he watched the video clip. He was happy that finally the truth of what happened a year ago would be revealed.After Michaela’s court case, his colleagues started avoiding him. They felt that he was clouded by his emotions to settle the scores on behalf of his dearest Paula. His close friends were aware of how much he adored Paula.He couldn’t believe his eyes when he watched the video clip. His eyes were as big as a saucer. What would Thorne think of him? Would he think he colluded with Sloane to frame Michaela be
Jeff was so shocked that his mind went blank. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He didn’t even hear Thorne’s question. He couldn’t believe they were in that mess because of his beloved Paula.It was clear to him that Sloane was following Paula’s instructions. The hatred he had for Sloane vanished.Jeff looked at Thorne and said, “Please pour me a strong alcohol, Thorne. This information is too much for my small brain.” Thorne walked to his bar and poured him a glass of brandy.He was so disappointed in Paula. Was Thorne the only man on the planet?Jeff drank a glass of brandy as if he were drinking water and asked, “Who helped them with the surveillance footage? I heard the Cage family hired the best hackers, but they all failed. Who was the mastermind?”Thorne looked at Jeff as if it was the first time he had seen him. That thought had never crossed his mind. He was thinking about his missing ex-wife. He was reminded of Hacker Stone. Was he the mastermind?Thorne to
A suffocating feeling overwhelmed Thorne when Sloane mentioned his wife’s name. He was reminded of Michaela’s kindness and her gentleness. She had loved him deeply and he was her everything. However, he failed to cherish her.It was clear that Paula became bold because of his indulgence. He had never believed his wife when she complained about Paula’s harassment. He felt that Michaela was petty and jealous.When Thorne looked at Sloane, he felt guilty. He was too impulsive. It was clear to him that Sloane was just following Paula's instructions. He looked at Sloane for a long time and said, “Call your parents and let them know that you are alright.”Sloane couldn’t believe her ears and asked, “Huh?” She was so worried about her mother because she had high blood pressure. Thorne smiled and replied, “Go ahead and call your parents.”Sloane dialed her father’s number with trembling hands. When it was connected she said, “Hello, Daddy. Are you well? How is Mommy? Daddy, please don’t worry
While the hospital staff was helping her mother to be comfortable, Sloane quickly sent the voice recording to Samson. She wanted to see how he would react after realizing everything was his sister’s doing.When Mr Bale and his wife arrived at the hospital, he rushed to his sister, beaming with joy, and said, “My heart is filled with gratitude to the Lord for healing you, my dearest sister.Also, I thanked the Lord for bringing my niece back to us safe and sound.” Then he kissed his sister on top of her head and hugged his beloved niece tightly.Mildred smiled brightly at her sister-in-law, then hugged her niece tightly and said, “We were so worried about you, my precious niece. I am glad that you came back unharmed.”Sloane smiled at her aunt and replied, “I am so sorry for worrying you, Auntie. Thorne kidnapped me because he thought I was the mastermind behind everything, but it wasn’t true.”Her mother looked at her with a confused expression and asked, “Sloane, what really happened?
Isaac walked to the door and opened it. The two police officers entered, then they greeted Pastor Bernie with respect, and said, “Pastor, we received a call indicating that someone has been assaulted.”Naomi approached the police officers and replied, “I made a call because my sister Doreen assaulted me. Please take her away. I want her to rot in jail.”The police officers were dumbfounded. Then they looked at Doreen and asked, “Miss Bernie, is your sister telling the truth?”Doreen nodded her head and replied, “It is true. However, I was defending myself. Naomi broke up with her fiancé and blamed me for it.She rushed to me and tried to slap me, but I dodged. Then I slapped her twice on the face. She told me that she wanted to destroy my life. Fortunately, I recorded her.” Then she played the voice recording.Doreen asked for the police officers' phone numbers, then she forwarded the voice recording to them and her boyfriend, David.Naomi nearly fainted with anger. Who gave Doreen th
Tristan went to the bedroom and walked to the closet, where he started packing his clothes in the luggage bag. Fortunately, he didn’t have many clothes in his fiancée’s apartment.Noami followed him behind. She was so shocked when he saw him packing his clothes. She snatched the luggage bag from her fiancé’s hands.Naomi looked at Tristan with eyes full of tears and asked, “What are you doing, Tristan? You are dumping me because I want a big wedding?”Tristan looked at her and replied, “No. You dumped me first when you started looking down on me because of my salary. There is no future for us, Naomi. I cannot marry someone who sees me as a failure.”Naomi shook her head and said, “Tristan, I have never said you are a failure, but I am disappointed in your lack of ambition.”Tristan looked at her for a long time and asked, “Didn’t I tell you that my dream was to become a doctor? Was that not ambitious enough for you?I don’t understand why you accepted my engagement ring, since deep in
At the Saxon estate, Michaela was in her husband’s arms smiling sweetly at him, and said, “Honey, thank you for putting a smile on my face. I never thought I would be able to laugh again.I love you so much, my Storm. I believe that one day the Lord will bless us with children. I promise to give you a soccer team. I cannot wait to hold them in my arms.”Storm smiled gently and replied, “I can’t describe the love I have for you, my wife. Feel free to hold me in your arms any time.” Michaela giggled and hugged her husband tightly.The following morning, Michaela accompanied her husband to breakfast. They greeted the elders with respect, and then Michaela walked to her mother-in-law.Her mother-in-law smiled at her and said, “You don’t have to wake up so early, my daughter in love.”Michaela smiled brightly and replied, “Mom, when I was in prison, the prison wardens used to wake us up at 5:30. So, I have been struggling to sleep after half past five.”Her mother-in-law’s heart ached when
At the Miller mansion, Denzel and his wife Gloria were in their walk-in closet dressing up. Denzel was handsome in a navy blue custom-made suit and his wife was stunning in a knee-high custom-made blue dress.Gloria was looking at her husband with eyes full of love and said, “When our son-in-law and our daughter showed us their marriage certificate, I was reminded of the day when we went to register our marriage.Our parents were over the moon. Then they decided to accompany us to Home Affairs. It was a joyful day.” Denzel pulled his wife in a tight embrace and replied, “My mother was so happy that she cried.”Gloria nodded her head and replied, “My mother-in-law was a good woman and we had a good relationship. I am so glad that Michaela’s mother-in-law is a good woman too.”Denzel kissed his wife on her forehead, then they headed to the living room. Stella and Amanda were in the living room waiting for the Miller couple.Amanda was beautiful in a knee-high custom-made red dress showc
Orlando smiled broadly and replied, “Congratulations, Uncle Forest, for getting a brand-new granddaughter-in-law. Thank you for inviting me. See you later, Sir.” Then they hung up the phone.Then Mr Saxon Senior dialed his in-law, Mr Miller’s number. When it was connected, he said, “Hello, my in-law. We will be celebrating our children’s marriage tonight at 6 pm. Please join us with your lovely family.”Mr Miller was over the moon. He beamed and replied, “Hello, my in-law. We will surely come.” They bid goodbye and then they hung up.Mr Saxon Senior remembered to invite Pastor John to the celebration dinner. Mr Miller was still at the Harvest Group finalizing outstanding projects. He didn’t want to leave his son-in-law with a lot of work.He went to Clement’s office and knocked on the door. Clement replied, “Come in.” his eyes lit up when he saw Uncle Denzel.Mr Miller walked into the office and sat on the sofa, then Clement sat beside him. He smiled and said, “Clement, tonight at 6 p
Storm opened the passenger door, helped his wife into the car, and walked to the driver’s side. Michaela had already fastened her seatbelt, but her husband unfastened it. Then he took her in his arms and kissed her passionately.Storm looked at his wife with gentleness in his eyes and said, “Hello, Mrs Saxon.” Michaela flashed him a dazzling smile and replied, “Hello, Mr Saxon.”Storm kissed her on the lips and said, “My stunning wife, let’s go to the Miller mansion to show our Mom the marriage certificate.” Then he fastened his wife’s seatbelt.Michaela looked at their marriage certificate again and smiled brightly. She looked at her husband with eyes full of love and replied, “So sweet, my handsome husband. Mom will be over the moon.”Then her husband drove the car to the Miller mansion. On the way, Storm stopped in front of the flower shop and said, “I will be right back, Sweetheart.” Then he got out of his car and walked to the flower shop.A few minutes later, Storm walked out of
After the Saxon family ate, Mr Miller took his in-laws to a lavishly decorated large Galvanized steel Gazebo double roof canopy. There were sofas and chairs.Gloria sat beside her in-law, Judy. She hugged her arm smiling and said, “Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the thoughtful and wonderful gifts you have showered us with.”When she saw Stella and Amanda's gifts, a surge of warmth flowed through her heart.Judy smiled brightly at her and replied, “It’s been a while since I saw my son so happy. My daughter in love has put a smile on the whole family and, for that, I am grateful.My Michaela is the best thing that ever happened in my family. We have to start preparing for our children’s wedding, my in-law. It is long overdue.”Gloria was so happy when she heard Judy’s words and replied, “Our children loved each other so dearly. So, there is no need for delay, my in-law.”At that moment, Mr Saxon Senior smiled at her in-laws and said, “My in-laws, circumstances delayed our chi
The Miller mansion's atmosphere was lively. The living room and the dining room were lavishly decorated.Chef Roy and his team were cooking, and the smokiness and sweetness of the aroma wafted in the air, making people hungry.The Saxon family indicated that they would arrive at 10 am. Therefore, the renowned hairstylist arrived at 8:00 to prepare Michaela and her family.Michaela smiled brightly at her and said, “Thank you for coming, Miss Walker.” Madison hugged her and replied, “Please call me Aunt Madison, young lady.”Michaela smiled at her, then she escorted her to her dressing room. At 9 am, Michaela was standing in front of the mirror.She was stunning in a custom-made knee-high royal blue dress showcasing her long slender legs. She was beyond gorgeous.Her mother walked into her dressing room with Aunt Stella. Her mother was beautiful in a silver knee-high custom-made dress and Aunt Stella was wearing a beige custom-made dress.They were stunned when they saw Michaela’s beaut
Gloria sat on the sofa in the guest room holding Stella’s hand. She looked at her with worried eyes and asked, “Stella, did Thorne harass you after we left?”Stella shook her head and replied, “No, Madam. Since his mistress was still alive, there was no need for him to harass us.However, on the day when Michaela was released from prison, Thorne came to our home looking for Michaela. He indicated that he wanted to ask for forgiveness.”Gloria smiled at Stella and said, “Stella, please don’t call me ‘Madam’ anymore. You are no longer my family nanny.”Stella shook her head and replied, “In my heart, you will always be my madam. If you hadn't given me a helping hand when I was abandoned by my husband’s family, I don’t think my daughter and I would still be alive today.For that, I will forever be grateful to you and your family.” After Stella’s husband passed away due to illness, she discovered that her husband had left the Life insurance policy, investment policies, and their house to h
