Zack was stunned, "A son? wait, wait what do you mean we have a son? you never told me I had a son"
Nora took a deep sigh and nodded her head."yes, we have a son together, A few days before our family left the city, my parents found out that I was pregnant..that's when dad decided that it was best for our family to move.He's five years old..I remember I got pregnant when I was only 19 years of age and a few months before I turned 20, I gave birth to our son. He's a brilliant kid, very lovable and adorable, just like his father" Nora said with a smile on her face.Zack was utterly shocked, he could not put a sentence together. He turned and went out, walking in the direction of his car without saying a word. "Zack, Zack what is the meaning of your behavior, aren't you going to say anything? now that you know we have a son, don't you think we should be together? Zack! Nora screamed as she tried to stop Zack who had already driven away."Brandon, what happened is inevitable, we can't change it. the best thing for us to do is to move on" Fortune said directly.Brandon sighed helplessly "and how have you been since that incidence?""as you can see, I am fine, and you?"Brandon smirked, "no man in his right senses would be fine after such a thing happens but with time, I will be fine. I always think that if I had accepted her condition, maybe she would have been.."don't, don't say that Brandon. Your statement signifies or rather implies guilt. You don't have to blame yourself. If a married man decides he doesn't want to be with his wife anymore due to some uncontrollably circumstances, then he is free to go, it would not be fine for his wife to threaten him with her life in order to keep him by her side.. everyone has the right to their freedom. The scenario I gave you is similar to the situation you were in. Don't hit your head so hard"The two spoke for some time till Fort
The room was suddenly filled with total silence, non of them uttered a word till fortune raised her head and looked at Zack."I am honestly moved by your honesty. I will not abandon you because of this. Seeing that you didn't betray me. I mostly upload and appreciate your honesty. I will stand by you in good or bad times. That's why we are here for each other remember?" Fortune said with a warm smile that melted Zack's heart completely." Zack you mean alot to me and I let you into my life with all that I can, I will not and cannot let you go just like that" Fortune didn't know if she had already fallen for Zack. All she knew is that she couldn't let go of such a good man."Zack, I will stand by you.. Don't worry I'm here for you"Zack breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Fortune as if he was scared she would slip away."uhm Zack, you need to accompany me for a movie and the rest will be mentioned later, for now, you need to accompany me that's i
"Fortune, here are the car keys, go wait for me in the car, I will find you.. just let me handle this" Zack said as he gave the car key to Fortune.Nora quickly stepped forward and blocked Fortune's path."she is not going anywhere, it's because of her that an innocent child has got no father, has no complete family to grow up in! woman, do you think your behavior is right in the slightest? don't you have a heart?""oh shut up and stop talking nonsense! the only connection we have is the child that's all..I don't love you, I have no feelings for you in the slightest, and do you know what I just realized? that even if my girlfriend decides to leave me today, I can never be with a woman like you, not even for the child's sake. I am not the one to make petty sacrifices by putting my happiness on the line. I am not disputing the fact that I have a child with you, I am not going to deny my child of any love but I can't be with you. I can't subject my life to misery because
You know I even tried to send her abroad on different occasions but to no avail. i-i live in fear now because the most dangerous person is a desperate woman. She is more determined to get what she wants by any means possible. Even if I ask some people to protect you in secret, I am afraid it won't be enough unless you say you are comfortable walking around with bodyguards by your side of which I know you wouldn't agree.A woman who follows you around just to embarrass you might as well kill you if she doesn't get what she wants. Once you are desperate and determined to have something, at times it gets to your head so much so you end up doing something you shouldn't..if anything happens to you, I will not only loose the love of my life, but your parents will also be childless and I don't want that. I would rather distance myself from you than put your life at risk" Zack stressed out his point making sure Fortune understood every word he said.Fortune nodded her head a
Zack was right, we need to separate. it's the best thing to do now"Asia shook her head in disagreement"fortune please think about this rationally, you can't leave your boyfriend just because you found out he has a five-year-old child with his ex-lover and I know that she's on your neck but that's not enough reason for you to leave him. Just because she asked you to leave him, it doesn't mean you should... Fortune I am your best friend and I know you better than anyone else, you are not the type to give up because of threats, you can never give up on something that is yours because of a threat that's why I am assuming that the real reason why you want to leave my brother is because of the child he has with his ex-lover.. Listen to me fortune, don't listen to her threats, you need to stay strong and fight for your relationship, that is the kind of fortune I know" Asia advised in a stressed-out tone."Asia it's not like I just found out about the child, we both know I
"i-i lost him. Camilla, z-zack, he..i..I can't be with him anymore. I never thought losing him would hurt this much. Camilla, it's over between us, we are done" fortune spoke between her sobs."ok, listen to me fortune, you can't break down like this. wipe your tears like the strong girl that you are and tell me what happened" Camilla said, sounding like an elder sister who only wanted to fix things between a couple.Fortune wiped her tears then explained everything to Camilla."good, I am glad you have grown up and matured..love is not selfish, it's not always supposed to be selfish. You did the right thing by putting your parents first. You can't live a reckless life as they already lost a daughter, losing another one within a short space of time would break aunt and uncle. Now you have to be strong for them alright?"Fortune nodded her head.. although she knew it would never be easy for her, she knew she had no choice.All that was left between her and Zack w
Nora vigorously shook her head in denial, her eyes sparkled a glint of fear and guilt at the same time."Zack, you know better than anyone else that the reason why I left was because Dad found out I was pregnant..remember I left some weeks after we got intimate that night. I went back home in the morning and my Mum found out about it, she immediately told Dad and since then, I had been locked up. How can I lie about my own child's father, I am not so wicked..he is just an innocent child and doesn't deserve the cruelty of this world" Nora said pitifully.Zack just ignored her words, "fortune and I are done, I hope you don't embarrass her or harm her in any way, or else I will kill you with my bare hands. And let me make something clear to you..there is no us, there will never be us, and can never be us. I transferred a large sum of money into your account. Enough to take care of my son's food, education, shelter and well-being. Don't bother me anymore, I will visit him once
"Are you trying to mess with my head?" fortune asked raising her voice a few decibels."shhh relax, I know you are hurting but calm down," Zack said in a calm voice.Fortune silently cried till she fell asleep in Zack's arms. She only got to sleep at 5 am.Zack picked up fortune who was fast asleep and took her to her room.He soon walked out and bid farewell to Asia then left and drove straight to his house, he just carried a briefcase that contained some money, Atm cards, all his travel documents, and other required documentation needed. He wore a dark blue suit then prepared to leave."come on man, were you going to leave without telling me anything?" Chris stood at the door with folded arms."of course I was going to tell you. I already informed Terry about my departure, he will handle a few things from here, and for you, please make sure that my two hospital projects in city B go on well, i am trusting you will do a good job.Make sure they ar
The call got disconnected and fortune was all over Zack. "Come on Zack did you have to say that, do you want to make my relationship with my dad awkward? Come on don't be so mea "At this moment, the back door of the car was suddenly opened, Zack and fortune simultaneously looked at who opened the door and saw Asia carefully sitting inside the car."Fortune, you have already tied your life to this big bully, you need to get used to it" Asia said in a mocking tone. Fortune and Asia enjoyed the ride while Zack drove to a restaurant not far from the main villa where they lived. The three had their lunch and went back.Ashley sat in his room, he was in such deep thought that he didn't hear the door being opened. "Ashley, do you have a few minutes to spare?" Asia asked politely. Ashley didn't respond or look at her, Asia raised her brow and looked at Ashley, she noticed he was in deep thought."Ashley,
Asia sat in her room in deep thought. She sighed heavily then stood up and grabbed her bag then walked out. She asked one of the driver's outside to prepare the car and sat in the back seat of the car. "Ma'am, where am I taking you?" The driver asked respectfully."Hunter's view cemetery " Asia responded lazily. The driver nodded then drove out... ashley stood near the window and looked at the car that drove out, he sighed helplessly and questioned if he was doing the right thing. He knew that Asia would probably never love him cause she had always loved Chris. What will be left of md if she doesn't fall for me? I probably will never have a child in my life cause she will never allow me touch her, but what kind of a life will that be? Am I subjecting my life to some sort of self imprisonment because of love? Ashley shook his head...no, why am I thinking this way? I can't turn back on my decision, I must
Zack just nodded, he had no other words to say, No answers to give as to why all this happened. Mr Jacobs turned and walked out leaving zack in the ward. A few hours slowly went by , zack was still in the ward, he tried to sleep a couple of times but couldn't. "Chris, don't go, you can't leave me, please come back. If..if you leave, what's there for me to live for? OK fine...fine, if you want to leave, I will come with you. I...I will come with you, wait for me, Chris! I said wait for me, don't leave me please. I need you, don't go" Asia said in her sleep as tears flowed down her face. Zack was taken aback by this, it was obvious this dream felt real for her. He walked up to Asia's bed side and patted her on the cheek. "Asia, wake up, it's just a dream, wake up! Come on wake up""No, Chris come back, come back to me""Asia wake up! Zack said in a loud voice.Asia opened her eyes, she sat u
Asia felt like her world was coming to an end, everything around her began to spin uncontrollably until everything suddenly became dark. Asia passed out at this moment, "doctor, hey nurse. Take her to the ward, let her rest. Give her something that will help her rest" zack instructed the nurses around then sat on a corner in deep thought. At this moment, he didn't even what he was thinking of. Fortune wiped her tears then walked up to zack's side. She sat beside him and threw herself in his arms , a hug is all she could do right now to comfort him. Fortune thought about Asia's state and shivered upon thinking of the scene earlier. Exactly how will Asia manage without Chris in her life. Half of her life has been about him, she has loved him for so many years and now, he is gone. Zack held fortune in his arms as he blankly stared at the wall in the opposite direction. Chris father was comforting his wife, he looked at
At this moment there was a loud roar of thunder and it soon began to rain...with the wind and lightening, Zack felt even worse by the sudden storm. He felt like the whole world was closing in on him. He had never felt this helpless before , the pain was suffocating him , no air conditioning was enough to make the sweat off his forehead stop. He had no idea on how to console Asia or what words to use... Or find something to say that could make her feel better. Zack paced back and forth thinking of what he would do next. Kevin is dead, Alex was also dead, what else could he do in the name of revenge? This feeling was something he had never felt before, he suddenly screamed with all his might then fell to the ground again, panting and sweating. "Zack you need to calm down, it's not like Chris is dead so just..."Only a miracle can save him at this moment" Zack interrupted absent mindedly. Terry was stunned, could it be that the situation is this bad?
Asia smiled at her father and they slowly walked in. Fortune and camilla went in last and sat at the back . Asia felt a little nervous but with her father beside her, she felt relieved."Chris, I give my daughter to you, my only daughter. Love her, take care of her as a wife, respect her and always make her happy" Asia's father said this with so much emotions, he stepped back and motioned for the priest to begin the ceremony. Kevin who was in the crowd signaled for Alex to get ready, he was not willing to wait for Chris and Asia to be pronounced husband and wife....At this moment, Kevin and Alex both stood to their feet, Ashley who was a little absent minded noticed this action and subconsciously yelled in a loud voice "Asia get down". Chris reacted before the bullet could reach Asia,he stood in front of Asia like a shield, receiving the bullets being shot at him. The church hall was in chaos as everyone lay on the floor screaming
"Zack come on, must you mock me on my wedding day? Give me a break man, what's wrong with you?""Ok fine, listen here, stop worrying about this little bow tie and pay heed to my words. I am advising you as a friend, women can be a little funny at times, you need to treat your wife with extra care, get her some roses on your way back home..at least do it frequently. I learned this on the internet, it's another way to avoid too much nagging. So if you want less nagging, get her rose flowers on your way back home, get her chocolate or ice cream as well, you know how much she likes such irritating foods.And advising you as a brother in law, don't you dare hurt my little sister, or else I will forget about our friendship and skin you alive"Chris sighed helplessly without knowing what to say."Terry, organize a few of your men, just for security purposes. Kevin wouldn't try to make any funny moves, at least that's what I think" Zack said in a firm voice."Ok a
Fortune pouted her lips, "Zack, stop playing around here, I am serious. I want to ask you a question and I need you to answer me honestly"Zack nodded to fortune then closed his laptop and gave his attention to her.Asia looked at the two and thought it would be inappropriate for her to stay.She stood up and fixed her clothes then cleared her throat just to , get their attention. "I will leave you two so you can catch up. Fortune, remember my wedding will be soon and I have yet to make a decision concerning my wedding dress. I will need your help so don't give so much of your time on my brother, please. I am the one who needs attention. My brother is fine and healthy as you can see. So please, I hope you keep my words in mind. Your best friend needs you now more than ever" Asia said mockingly and winked at Zack before she turned."You say that you need her now more than ever, are you going to marry her? She must spend most of her time with the ma
Fortune giggled and quickly left the ward. Natasha was taken aback by the interaction between the two and was immersed in jealousy. What does this girl have that I don't have? Why does every man want her? I know fortune is a beauty but I am equally beautiful. I was hoping I could get close to this patient but this silly girl seems to move faster than me. But wait, it seems the two knew each other before now. Anyways it doesn't matter, I need this handsome guy, he must be mine. After all, it's obvious Ken doesn't want me, I lost interest in him the day I saw Zack so why should I waste my time on ken? Natasha was deeply immersed in her own thoughts, forgetting about Zack."Is this how you work?" Zack spoke in a deep voice which startled Natasha."Oh sir, I am sorry about that. Let me quickly check on your wound, we need to make sure there isn't any infection" Natasha spoke in a soft voice.Zack didn't say anything, he let Natasha check on his wound until she was done.
