Without saying a word to Raymond,Ivy slammed the door of the room on his face.she sighed before dropping her bag on the bed.She wondered what came over Raymond,why was he suddenly talking about her falling for Leon.she didn't even want to think about it."You cannot run away from me"she heard his voice.She looked at herself in the mirror,she was good to go.she didn't want to waste much time,she arranged her hair properly,took the plastic bag containing the things she bought for her father before leaving the room."Where are you going?"Raymond asked as soon as he saw her coming out of the room."I want to visit my father,"she replied."I will drive you there"Raymond offered and she nodded.They entered the car and Raymond drove out of the compound."You are so disrespectful,"Raymond said to her."I don't understand,"Ivy uttered."How can you ignore my questions?You even closed the door in my face,I am so hurt,"he lamented."I'm sorry but you shouldn't ask me silly questions,I don't u
It didn't take long before Ivy and Raymond arrived at the nursing home where Ivy's father was staying.Ivy covered her face with her palms,she let the tears that has built up in her eyes to flow."Why are you crying?you should be happy that you have finally get the chance to see your father again"Raymond said to her."I am just happy that I'm finally seeing my father again,I can't believe that he survived this,if I didn't raise the money,I would have lost my father,I am so happy even though I did bad things,God still forgave me and gave my father a second chance to live,I would forever remain grateful"Ivy let out her thoughts and Raymond scrunched his face up in confusion."What are you talking about? which money and why would your father die if you didn't get the money?is there anything you are not telling me?"Raymond asked.That's when Ivy realized herself,she remembered that she did not tell Raymond about her father's sickness and the money she needed for the surgery so he wouldn't
"Dad"she exclaimed happily as she saw her dad sitting on the bed.Mr Parker couldn't believe his eyes,he was really seeing his daughter."Ivy,is this really you?"he asked."Dad,it's me,it's Ivy your little girl"she reported happily.words couldn't explain the joy Mr Parker felt.he spread his arms wide open and Ivy ran into his arms, hugging him carefully since her father was still recovering."I missed you so much Dad"she said to him and Mr Parker patted her back."I miss you more my child"Mr Parker replied."You didn't tell me that you were visiting,"Mr Parker said to her after they stopped hugging."I wanted to surprise you,"Ivy replied."How are you doing?You are looking good,"he said to her and she smiled."I hope you like your new job,if it's stressing you,you better come back,I can still work and provide for the two of us"Mr Parker said to Ivy.."You don't have to worry about me,I am doing fine,"she said to her father.The door opened and the woman taking care of my father who I l
"We are done visiting your father, what next?"Raymond asked as soon as they got out from the nursing home."I want to go back to the place where I sold the wrist watch of my boss so I will know whether I can find it,"Ivy replied."Do you think you can find it?it Should have been sold by now".Raymond said to Ivy."Let me try first,"Ivy said to him."Okay,I will drive you there,"Raymond said to Ivy."Okay,thank you"she replied and they entered the car and Raymond drove out."What do you think about your daddy and his new found love?Are you really okay about it?"Raymond asked."Emily is a good woman,my dad has never cared about his own happiness while he was raising me up,I shouldn't stop him from having that happiness now,I am happy for him, at least I don't have to worry about him anymore,he has someone taking care of him now and I know he is happy"Ivy replied."Don't you think it's time for you to find your own happiness?"Raymond asked."I have things to do but if it comes knocking at
IVY'S POV.I opened my eyes slowly,my head ached so much.I sat up on the bed,my eyes scanned the room and I realized that I was in my room in sir Leon's mansion.I was confused.how did I get here? thought I was in city B.how did I get here or am I dreaming?.It didn't take me long to remember what happened.I was filled with fear at the thought of something bad happening to Raymond.I searched for my phone immediately so I could call him but I didn't see my phone.I cursed inwardly when I remembered that I left my bag in Raymond's car.I wonder if he was alright.I needed to find that out.I got up from the bed and headed towards the door.I held the door handle and pulled the door but it was not opening.I tried so many times but it wasn't opening.Maybe it was locked outside.What the fuck is going on?why am I locked in here?.I was so fustrated because I needed to talk to Raymond.I won't be able to handle it if something bad happened to him.I would have thought I was kidnapped if I wasn't
Sarah was busy with her laptop in her room when she heard a knock on her door."Come in"she said and turned her gaze to the door to know who was that.Kelvin walked into her room with a smirk on her face."What do you want?"she asked him, returning her gaze to the laptop infront of her."I need your opinion on something"he said to her and Sarah squinted her eyes at him as she wondered what he was up to."What is that?"she asked.The smile on Kelvin's face never left his face and Sarah found it weird.she wondered what was happening to him.she knew he was up to no good.He brought out his phone,pressed it for some minutes before handing it over to Sarah."What do you think of that video?is it fun enough to make people smile when they watch it because I want it to go viral,I hope people will enjoy it"he said to her.Sarah played the video,beads of sweat formed on her forehead and her hand which was sweaty shaked making the phone to fall on the ground."You ruined my phone,you should be th
