Chapter 20

The nurse started thinking suspiciously of Lila. She immediately took out her phone to check the latest news channel. In the media platform, current news is always disseminated first before any other news channel would capture it. It always has reports of events happening live and even the ones that took place just thirty minutes a while.

“If she's a criminal, I should be able to find something about her here. It's been three days since this accident happened.” The nurse thought.

Lila could not tell why the nurse’s look at her changed at the moment.

She noticed how the nurse stylishly took her head up and down, looking at her while she pressed her phone.

But that one is of no concern to her. The most important thing is that no one in her family knows where she is.

Lila looked beside her bed but couldn't catch sight of any of her belongings—her bag.

“Excuse me, nurse, do you see my handbag?”

“Yes, I was supposed to give it to you when you wake up. Please, excuse me, let me

    Chapter 21“Grey shun?” Lila was quite surprised to see that he was the topic of the town. She tried to keep her face away from their sight to avoid one of them saying that she knows her or looks familiar to Grey's wife-ex-wife.Lila wished that something would keep delaying nurse Tonia in the laboratory so that she could have the chance to listen to the full gossip.“Abeg, I'm too curious to hear this gist. Can you just start and stop wasting our time?” One of the nurses said.“Alright, do you know his 2-year-old daughter?” the nurse paused and put her hands on her chin to remember something before she continued.“What is the name of the girl again,... Ehem, Jannel?”“Rumour has it that Jannel is not his daughter!”“What?” All the rest echoed in shock.“Are you for real, right now?” Their voices echoing coincidentally.“Of course, yes. Trust me, I don't spread fake gossip! I always do my research before believing in gossip.” The nurse explained.“And to crown it all, I also heard tha

    Chapter 22“It's okay. You guys have digested enough of this man's topic today. Don't you people have work to do? It's high time you allow the sleeping dog to lay and go face your work!” Nurse Tonia scolded them, and they all dispatched to their various duty posts before she continued moving with Lila.“I'm sorry for keeping you out here for so long, Lila. I had to ensure that the scientists were doing the right thing.”“No problem, nurse Tonia D; I totally understand. You see, that's why I told you even before now that you're the best. And you can see for yourself now!” Lila said jokingly, and they both laughed.“Besides, I wasn't bored at all. At least I was entertained by their discussion.” Lila added, so that she could hear nurse Tonia's side of the story and how she'll judge it.“Never mind those gossips. They can't face their lives except to gossip about others.” Nurse Tonia scoffed.“Lols!” Lila smiled.“You don't have to blame them. They're only humans. So if you give people

    Chapter 23YOU'RE PREGNANT Lila's face brimmed with joy with ceaseless smiles before she started reading the letter. Relaxing her back on the pillow, she focused her attention on the letter as she read,“Dear, Stanger, I don't know you, and I'm sure the same applies to you. I hope this letter finds you in good health. I'm sorry, I couldn't wait for you to wake up so that we can talk and, at least, know each other.I couldn't help but carry you to the nearest hospital when I saw your helpless condition after being hit by a car. I lost my mother to the cold hands of death through an accident because no one was there to save her when it happened until she finally gave up. Since then, I promised never to see an accident victim pass by without helping out. I hope the doctors and nurses take good care of you to speed up your healing process.I wish you a quick recovery, my dear. And next time, be careful of walking around in the night.Yours sincerely.”The writer only ended the letter w

    Chapter 24Lila's weird reactions never cease to stun nurse Tonia. She gazed at her in silence, with several thoughts conceived in her mind.“Why is everything about her different? On a hospital bed, she doesn't want her family to know, and now pregnant, she's not happy! What actually could be her problem?”"Congratulations, ma'am,” nurse Tonia said with a faint smile, trying to cover her suspicions.Lila wasn't quick to answer. She glared at nurse Tonia and, at the same time, her test result.“Congratulations, ma'am,” nurse Tonia repeated.“Oh, thank you, nurse,” Lila replied with her voice devoid of any joy, not even a fake smile.“Nurse? Just a nurse? Something must be wrong! But I can't just go ahead and ask. Let me mind my business. She'll tell me when she wants to.” Nurse Tonia thought and shrugged.She was quite surprised because that was the first time Lila addressed her without including her name, Tonia D.“Nurse Tonia,”“Yes, ma'am Lila,” she replied with a smile.“Since I

    Chapter 25Lila stared at Aunt Kendy in silence. She wished there's a way age could escape answering that question.“Miss Lila,” Aunt Kendy waved her hand over her face.“Did I say something wrong?”“No. Not at all.” I'm just wishing that I see that good Samaritan that brought me here.” Lila tried to convince her with a lie.She pointed her things to Aunt Kendy, who helped her arrange them in a bag before they left.“Please don't forget, ma'am Lila, you have an appointment with the obstetrician in the next three days. Hope to see you soon.” Nurse Tonia concluded before waving her goodbye.“Obstetrician? Isn't that a doctor that handles pregnancy issues? Does that mean my miss Lila is pregnant?” Kendy thought to herself, but fear won't let her voice her curiosity out.Lila called her cap driver to come pick them up.While they engaged in conversations in the car, Kendy observed that Lila was always finding a means to terminate or change the focus of any discussion that had to do with h

    Chapter 26Seeing the fierce look in her eyes as she made such a declaration, Aunt Kendy was moved with pity for her, as she imagined the pains her princess must have passed through for the sake of marriage.“If you have any stuff you'll love to carry along, please do that by tomorrow. Our flight is in the next two days. Try and ensure you don't forget any valuables.” Lila suggested.“Mum, you've been quiet since you got back from the hospital. Is everything okay?” Grey asked his mother.“Besides, you've been looking so pale lately.” He added.Mrs. Shun’s mind and emotions had been shattered since the day Lila overheard her conversation with her stepmother.“Of course, I'm sure she heard us. That girl is a devil! I know she was just lying when she said she didn't hear anything.” She thought to herself.“I'm fine, son. I'm just worried about Cynthia's dad's condition. I really pray he should get well soon, you know. Because Anabella is too close to him, and it would be bad if that litt

    Chapter 27Evil Plan“Not at all,” she shrugged.“Like I've always said, I'm forever indebted to your mother for her kind gesture.” She added casually. But there was no hint of indebtedness in her tone. As even the smile she was wearing was evidently a forced one.“It's nothing, ma'am. She has to do that because you've given her the best daughter-in-law any woman could ever ask of.I'll be forever grateful as well,” Grey appreciated with a smile.“I'll be at the reception,” he added when Cynthia and Janell stepped in. He needed to give them some privacy as a family.“Cynthia, can you plead with your husband to give us Lila's address? I don't mind going there by myself to get her to come see your dad; he has been demanding to see her since he woke up." Elena said with much worry in her tone.“Mum, don't tell me that you'd stoop so low to beg that witch just for the sake of dad!” Cynthia scoffed.“Cynthia, you and I know that we have to find something that would make her look bad before

    CHAPTER 95THE END: SIX MONTHS LATER“Mother, why haven't I seen Mr. Brian here again? Did he travel?” Ethan asked with an inquisitive look while having breakfast with his mother.Lila took a deep breath before giving a reluctant reply to the curious little boy.“He didn't travel, Ethan, just that he has been busy at work recently,” she answered with a twitch.“So, what about Mr. Grey? Did you love him? Or—is he?”“Come on, Ethan.” Lila interrupted.“You don't need to talk while eating. Please, observe some table manners.” She reprimanded him, scaring the little boy.A few minutes later, little Ethan couldn't hold his silence anymore when he heard the persistent knocking on the door while his mother had left for the kitchen.“Mother, I think Mr. Grey is at the door,” he said.With a broad smile as she opened the door, Lila's brows furrowed with a fading smile at the sight of the unexpected figure at the door.“What are you doing here, Brian?” She asked with a frown while blocking his

    CHAPTER 94IN LOVE AGAIN Without hesitation, Grey stood up and rushed over to the passenger's side and joined her in the car.“W–what are you trying to do, Grey?”Lila questioned as her brows furrowed in confusion.Fixing his innocent eyes on her as he placed his palms on her hand while she held the steering wheel, his soft whispers made her numb at the moment.“Please, can you permit me to do Ethan's paternity test for a second time? I don't mind if you make a suggestion for the hospital of your choice,” he said calmly. The only response she could give was an unexplainable gesture in silence as she stuttered.“Grey, I—I don't think…”“Please, just this favor, and I'll be off your neck with disturbance,” Grey interrupted as he figured her response was going in the negative direction.Before she could utter another word, he was gradually leaning in as his hand met her cheek, and a warm whisper of his breath crashed against her skin until their lips met in a passionate, tender, and fier

    CHAPTER 93 REUNION SPARKLING “What—did—you—just—say?” Lila's brows furrowed as she uttered those ceasing words. She could feel her heart pounding in her chest, leaving her with no choice but to get a good parking space and stop. Her eyes were suddenly turning fierce as she stepped out of the car and leaned on it. With a fixed and bitter look at Grey, she lowered her head and wrapped her hands around her chest. “Ghmmm…ghmmmm…” She cleared her throat. “If you don't mind, Mr. Grey, can you repeat exactly what you said while I was in the car?” She asked, peering her inquisitive eyes on him. “What phrase didn't you understand, Lila? I simply asked why Ethan was proven not to be my son, yet you gave birth to him just nine months after our divorce. So, tell me, are you a harlot or just some chronic cheat who …” Slap!!! “How dare you come to my house and accuse me of some nonsense infidelity, Grey?” She cut his statement short as her hands met his cheeks with a resounding slap. “So, yo

    CHAPTER 92 THE DNA TEST “Mr. Brian, do you know that man? And why did we even come to the hospital, by the way?” Little asked with an inquisitive look after they left the hospital.Without a second thought, Brian answered wittily. “Sure, he's a friend, and—I actually wanted to see a doctor friend of mine, but unfortunately, he seems not to be on duty today.” Brian explained, convincingly and confusingly, to the little boy at the same time. “But—I think I know that man somewhere. He has once been to our house,” Ethan added. “What? No way!” Brian answered with furrowed brows. His mind began to race that the boy might tell his mother about meeting with Grey at the hospital. “I know who you are talking about, but this one is entirely a different person. In fact, he just returned from overseas yesterday. Probably, I think it should just be a resemblance, okay?” Brian explained, and the boy nodded. “Remember, every individual in this life has a lookalike somewhere he or she does

    CHAPTER 91Brian returned to his house early in the morning so that he could get ready for work. Sitting in the dining room while sipping a cup of tea, he heard a knock on his door. “Come in,” he said without hesitation, believing that it could be Lila, because most times she does pass by the house before she proceeds to her office, which is just a few miles away. “Lila, I thought…” he paused when he heard a masculine voice greeting. “You, what are you doing here?” Brian said with an agitating frown. “Calm down, man. I'm only here for peace, so no need for the violent attack.” Grey, he said softly as he moved closer. “Well, you have a nice apartment.” He said as he rolled his eyes around the corners of the room. “I know that already. Can you just go straight to the point? I've got a lot of things to do .” Brian said rudely. “Alright. The thing is… I'm here for a favor, which I need so desperately from you.” Grey mentioned and paused to take a deep breath. “I… I saw Lila with a

    CHAPTER 90HE KNOWS ALREADY. “Ethan, I said you should go inside. Don't worry, I'll explain everything to you once I'm done,” Lila said casually as she tried to avoid the little boy's question with a convincing peck on his cheek, but Ethan's smartness won't let him fall for her trick easily.“Come on, Ethan, have you forgotten that you have some homework to do? Let's get it done before your tutor comes.” Aunt Kendy convinced him when she saw the boy's hesitation to leave.“Answer my question, Lila. Whose son is he?” Grey insisted as his countenance began to turn unfriendly.“I don't owe you any explanations for the paternity of my son, Mr. Greyshun. Besides, where are your two daughters?” Lila responded with a straight face.Her hesitation made Grey's stomach churn. “Could it be that she was pregnant before the divorce?” he mouthed to himself. “Fine, I'll let that be. So what about the burning down of the warehouse? The condemnation of Cynthia's dress at the party? The cajoling of m

Stop pretending as if you don't know what I'm talking about!” Grey retorted, his voice rising to a higher pitch at every word she uttered. “Look, Mr. Grey, I still don't know what you are talking about. Have you started going insane? How can you barge into my house and start asking me questions about the same woman you betrayed and sent to her early grave?” Aunt Kendy ranted, threatening to call the police on him if he didn't disappear from her door. Her words sent a chill down his spine. Instantly, a wave of guilt blew over him. Every day of his life since the departure of Lila, he had been secretly living with that guilt of being the root cause of her death. Even though he never loved her, Cynthia has been unable to fill that space that she left. “Oh, are you still stan

I almost got caught! You need to be more careful next time, Lila!” She scolded herself.The ride back to the Shun's mansion lasted for thirty minutes. As soon as they approached the parking lot, Grey's phone began to ring.When he checked the caller ID, he wasted no time in picking it up.Mark's brows slightly furrowed in confusion. For the long time he had known Grey, he had never seen him pick a call from a strange number on that particular phone.“Hey, what's up?” He said that as soon as he picked up the call.“Were you able to trace her?” Her? he asked, his voice filled with curiosity.“Yes, boss.

Thanks for the payment.” The voice of the man echoed from the voice note he sent to her.Lila stretched her body as she stumbled out of the bed.In a nick of time, all the dramas that had been happening lately involving the Shun family flooded her head, and she couldn't keep away from smiling.She stood at the large mirror hung on the wall and smiled at how far she had gone with her revenge. Even though she had spent a lot to convince the shareholders to withdraw their shares, it is nothing compared to the accomplishment of her goal.Seeing Grey's face wrapped up with frustration was one thing that gave her the utmost joy.Without hesitation, she drew near the bedside table and grabbed her phone to place a call.“Hey, how's she doing? Is she still breathing?” She asked as soon as the person on the other end of the phone picked up.“Yes,
