The stupefied Camilla was silent for almost a minute, breathing heavily while pondering on what she was told. She abruptly stood up from the couch, "hey what the heck are you talking about? I don't believe in this about-turn, this is bogus and I won't accept it! Camilla said as her voice trembled with anger. Brandon sighed like he didn't know what else to say, looking at the angry girl, he was a little frightened, oh gash what did I do he thought and was so regretful. He felt like this was the worst mistake he had ever made. "Camilla please, I never promised you anything, I never said I would officially make you my girlfriend, did I?" Camilla's tears rolled down her cheeks, no this wasn't true, it can't be. "stop all this drama, we both know I had no feelings for you but just sexual attraction. please leave from here and don't bother me". Brandon walked to his room, took out a two million cheque that he had prepared earlier and gave it to Camilla who was still in a daze. "take that money, just don't let me see  you in front of me, neither do I want to see you coming here. Pretend like this never happened". Camilla looked at the cheque on the side table "you can't do this to me you fool, after twisting in positions for you in bed, is this the kind of treatment I get?" "Camilla, you know I realized that certain feelings can't be forced no matter how much we try, I would have an intimate moment with you and once it's done, I don't think about you but about Fortune".  "so it's all about that bitch again, it's always been about that little bitch! Brandon got impatient " stop it! just stop! in the first place, you seduced me, how is she to blame? you seduced your own cousin's boyfriend and now you want to blame her? Camilla please this is enough, you are unscrupulous I must say. Even after doing such an inadmissible thing, you still want to blame her? wow, you are so amazing, having such a nefarious character at such a young age? anyways get out of my house, at least I know how to accept my mistakes unlike you" Camilla wiped her tears and looked at Brandon, she shrugged, feigning indifferently, and picked up the cheque anyway then left. Brandon looked at the girls back, how could he make such a mistake, with such a girl, unscrupulous, insouciant, insolent. 

After class, Asia passed through the grocery store to buy a few things she needed then went straight her apartment, as soon as she arrived, she freshened up and started cooking. At this time in a car, Zack asked his friend, "hey why don't we just take them out for dinner instead of troubling my darling sister with the cooking? I mean it's that easy". "actually Asia says fortune is still under house rest so she can't be moving up and down". Zack didn't understand what this meant "what do you mean fortune is still under house rest, why is she under house rest? did something happen to her?". Chris placed his palm on face and sighed "oh yes, I forgot to mention that she was hit by a car as she was about to cross the road, lucky enough, it was not serious she only sustained a few bruises and minor injuries". "how could you not tell me about this? what kind of a friend are you?". Chris shrugged indifferently " it must have slipped my mind". Zack annoyingly shook his head and continued driving. When they got to the girls apartment, it was half-past six.

    Zack had no time to show any courtesy by ringing the doorbell, he just pushed the door open and accosted Asia who was in the kitchen. "hey you silly girl, dare not tell me that fortune got hit by a car? Asia knew who spoke at this time and didn't bother to turn, she was concentrating on the meal being prepared and responded "bro alot has happened of late you know, I can't remember to tell you every single thing" Zack sighed, anyway he won't bother her today "where's your friend, I see she's not in the living room". "she must be in her room studying" Zack nodded and walked towards Fortune's room, he knocked a few times before hearing fortune say "come in". He walked in step by step with a smile. "Fortune, I heard you had an accident, how are you feeling now?" Zack asked in a concerned voice fortune chuckled "come on I'm fine now and it wasn't a serious accident, you don't have to worry". After that, they started chatting casually while Chris was on the couch playing games, waiting fo

    You either go to your new post or hand in your resignation letter. Only my secretary is allowed to come into my office, I'm sure you know that so if you gonna choose to continue working here, you better stay within your limits like the other employees". Clara felt embarrassed by what she was told, she nodded her head and left. She knew that if she really wanted this job, giving up would be the best thing to do, if Chris was capable of giving her another post just for him to avoid misunderstandings with his girlfriend, it simply meant that the girl was in his heart and had an important role that could not be jeopardized by anyone. At this time in Fortune's apartment, it was 3pm and she felt so bored that she couldn't stay put anymore. She decided to go to the grocery store and buy a few snacks. On her way back, she met the person she has been avoiding, it was Brandon, he was standing not far from her apartment, fortune was procrastinating if she should proceed or go to a coffee

    At this time, Fortune's phone rang, she looked at the number reflected on the screen and thought it was Brandon so she ignored the call, few minutes later, the phone rang again and it was the same number, fortune picked up the phone feeling irritated "Brandon I told you to stay away from me, even if you call me using different numbers, I will still block them you hear me". "hey fortune it's Zack" fortune felt abashed, oh no how could she act in such a way "oh Zack it's you, sorry I didn't have your number". "don't worry about it, I don't blame you after all, I have never called you either ways" fortune smiled ok "and why have I been honored with this call if I may ask?". Zack smirked "well I called to ask if I am allowed to invite this lovely lady out for dinner tonight". fortune rolled her eyes "alright, what time exactly?"she asked "I will be there at exactly half past six". fortune had no problem with the time and besides, she felt like she needed to go out "I won't disappo

    Zack abruptly lifted his head and stared at his friend. "Nora is not my nemesis so don't make such jokes and besides, I have given up looking for her. I want to start my life afresh" Chris chuckled "my question here is very simple, don't try to divert the topic, if Nora comes back to you after you start your relationship with fortune, what will you do? who will you choose?" Chris gave his friend such an ultimatum "Chris, actually if there was any hope of Nora coming back, I wouldn't have been here chasing after fortune. For the past five years, I have been living in the hopes that I would find her or she would come back to me but all that was in vain" Zack made a facepalm gesture in frustration and exhaled deeply. Chris knew how his friend felt about this issue but he still had to talk about it "Zack, you do know that the moment you and fortune start your relationship, even if Nora comes back, it would be wrong to abandon" Zack interrupted Chris and said angrily "stop it! she'

"oh I'm sorry, just that I thought you weren't here yet so I took my time". fortune said in an embarrassed tone. Zack chuckled "it's alright don't worry I'm just messing with you, shall we go now?" Fortune nodded, looked at her friends sitting posture, and said, "Asia, we will be leaving now, take care". Asia nodded without shifting her gaze from her laptop. Zack behaved gentlemanly, he opened the passenger's door for her, helped to fasten her seat belt, got into the car, and drove out. As soon as they arrived, fortune knew this fancy restaurant very well, Brandon would bring her here once in a while. Zack chuckled, knowing Fortune's background, it would have been a natural reflex for her to look around but she just walked like everything was normal Zack guessed "your ex-boyfriend has brought you here before?" fortune was stunned and sm

    Fortune and Zack instinctively looked at each other. Fortune hurriedly opened the door and rushed out with annoyance written all over her face. The drunk Brandon staggered while walking towards fortune, "hey my fortune you are finally here, i-i knew you would come out darling, you are so kind". Fortune was so angry "do you need a good beating to bring you back to reality?" Zack also walked over and stood beside fortune "oh, oh okay, i-i get it now. so h-his your n-new boyfriend right? wait, i t-think I have s-seen him somewhere" Brandon spoke drunkenly with red glossy eyes and stammering voice. Fortune wanted to respond but was stopped by Zack, "wait, it's no use reasoning with a drunk person""h-how dare you call me a-a d-drunkard! fortune, you c-chose him over me right?". This time Zack responded "she chose me over you so I hope you won't be a problem" Brandon was stunned and forgot that he was drunk "fortune is he telling t-the truth, please b-be honest with me"Fortune was

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?

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

"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.

    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?
