How do rich people behave like this? Buying a mansion for a few months-old baby? When I don't have any property under my name? Wow! It's good to be born with a golden spoon. Anyways, it's a good thing that he loves his son. Jeez! What am I saying? He has always loved him from the beginning, I assumed."Check this. It consists of thirty apartments and they are all painted in lemon color. Do you think he is going to like it? I wanna present it to me at his first birthday" he murmured"What? First birthday? Not a toy car, not a bicycle but an estate? That's too much!" I complained"He is my son, I see no reason not to give him anything in this world. As long as money can buy it, he is gonna have no problem" he smirked"Thankfully he isn't here with you. You would have started spoiling him with money" I scoffed"You of all people know he is staying with your family till everything gets sorted out. My son will live in my room and I'll make sure that he lacks nothing. We are not going to for
The following morning came earlier than usual. Waking up to find your lover beside you brings unexplainable joy. I stretched my hands and yawned loudly."Are you awake?" Came Ryan's voice"Hun" I replied, then opened my eyes. I found him glaring at him and he was also smiling."When did you wake up?" I asked him"A few minutes ago" he replied"And you didn't get up? Do not tell me that you have been glaring at me since you woke up" I was surprised"I can't help but keep looking at you. I feel like devouring you over and over again" he grinned"Bad guy" I slapped him teasingly which made both of us laugh.We heard the sound of hell ringing downstairs, which signified that we have a visitor."Are you expecting someone?" I eyed him but Instead of replying, he gave me a short peck on my forehead, then wear a round-neck shirt and boxers before he left the roomI closed my eyes, wanting to go back to dreamland but I couldn't help but to be smiling when what happened the night before was pla
"What the heck is happening here?" Madam first lady asked, looking shocked at the situation she met on the ground. I kept glaring at Ryan to give his mother a befitting response since I had nothing to say."And what the heck are you doing here? The last time I checked, I told you never to step foot inside my house again, right?" Ryan fired at her"Son, you need to calm down. There is nothing bad is visiting my son" she protested"And you, where are you going?" She asked me"About coming to your house when my so-called boyfriend has fucked up" I lied which somehow confused Ryan."Her house?" He asked again to be sure of what he heard"Yeah, her house" I nodded my head"Mom, leave my house right now! He uttered in his command voice"Can I even sit and sort the matter for you guys?" She questioned"Of course, you can not. You have lost your chance in this house as a mother. Now leave before you will push me to do what's on my mind" he threatened. The first lady gave me a final glance bef
I was determined to visit my parent's house but couldn't go any longer. We were already on our way when Liam's call came in. He asked about our location and informed us that he was in our house. Ryan wanted to shun him but I told him to drive us back home since he sounded like an emergency.We rushed back home and met him with the maids and guards that we requested for."Is that why you called us back?" Ryan asked him"Why would I call you because of this? You guys should go outside for a while, I'll introduce you to them later" he told them and then vacated the room."Why are you here?" I asked him. He took a deep breath before he opened his mouth to talk."Mom is tailing me" he dropped the bombshell"What!" I exclaimed"I expect that to happen, it isn't a new thing. Anyways, I have a better plan to expose mom" Ryan talked"But we need to take Maya out of Los Angeles. And I've thought about sending her to Africa but I don't know how she is gonna feel" Liam said"Why can't you bring h
I was inside the car, going back home. Yes! Alice ordered her driver to take me back home after the day's shopping. Her words were still ringing in my brain "I need you to plant a mole inside your house that will be feeding me what is going on in your home. Ryan wouldn't accept my mail and I think he will cut off our communication too. Try to find a maid that will be communicating with me, I'll surely compensate you well" she had requested. I was speechless at first but I wasn't shocked because I knew she was ready to go miles just to fulfill her greedy desires.I've received a call from my overprotective boyfriend, who sounded worried that something may have gone wrong with our meeting."Thank you" I thanked the driver as he dropped me home. The maids helped to pack the bags inside. Seemed Liam had informed them about their duty when I left home earlier."Angel" Ryan welcomed me with an embrace."I'm fine. You Kept worrying for nothing" I told him"It's good to see you be fine, I do
We ordered pizza and some drinks after Donald and Julia took their leaves. I was the happiest woman on earth. I couldn't believe that I'll be a house owner soon."Are you coming home tonight?" David asked as we were eating"Which home again after she has gotten her apartment" Maya replied to him on my behalf"Oh! You ain't coming to my place any longer?" He asked again. I didn't know why he was requesting for that though."Don't worry David, I'll be appearing to greet you often, also I'll be there tomorrow to pack my luggages" I confessed"Wow! I'll make sure to pack a few of my things too. Gonna stay here with you till you travel back" Maya uttered happily"Is that your plan? To leave me alone in that apartment?" David fired with resentment noticeable in his voice"Oh no, darling! You ain't available all the time. I'm the one that should be complaining and not you" Maya defended"By the way, has Liam communicated with you?" I asked because she was eager to spend a few days with me. I
Friday came earlier than usual. I was anticipating seeing my family again and couldn't sleep well but Maya worsened the matter by asking me about Ava over and over again. I couldn't deny her happiness because as another, I knew how it feels.I kept gisting her with a lot of things that Ava did, most especially when I gave birth to Leonard.We both stood up as easily as five in the morning to take our bath and prepare for the journey. We were hoping to leave Los Angeles by eight and get to the village in the evening.I texted my mother earlier to inform her about our arrival. As planned, we left home early in the morning.When I noticed that we had fifteen minutes left to get to the village, I opened my handbag and brought out a wig. The wig is so long, exactly the length of my hair before Donald cut it."What are you doing?" Maya asked me"I can't go home like this. I'm a beauty out there but Kiara is in the village, "I explained."Wait! You mean you are the popular Kiara Smith that w
Maya wanted to pursue her but my mom stopped her from doing so."I don't have any idea where she ran to. It hurt me to get rejected by my daughter though I wasn't expecting her to welcome me with an open hand" she sobbed"She is at fault! If she didn't separate me from my daughter, all this wouldn't have happened at all" she added, crying more"I believe she will come around soon. Ava is such a lovely girl, she will surely come around" I consoled her"I've things to do with her. I don't mind what it takes but I need to earn her forgiveness. Do you have any idea where she could have run to?" She inquired, facing Royce"Granny Vicky's house or the market square. She can't go past the two places" Royce suggested"Can you please take me there? I need to have some conversation with her" she asked pitifully.I had no choice but to hand Leonard over to Royce and I left the house with Maya, In quest of appealing to Ava.We entered Nurse Vicky's house, who was eager to receive us"You are look
*Eighteen years later*A lot of things have happened over the past eighteen years. After Liam's wedding, the ladies stood in the queue, waiting for her to throw her bouquet. She demonstrated the throwing two times but she didn't throw it.People were anticipating who the next bride would be but surprisingly, she started walking towards us."Babe, today wouldn't have happened if not for you. I remembered fighting you when we first met. It was fun to have a supporting friend like you and to say I was amazed when you told me to go ahead with the wedding plans despite that you have engaged and we all thought you would get married first. Here is the bouquet, it's yours and please, be fast with it" She handed the bouquet to me."Wow!""I like this!""Awwnnnnn""This is amazing" and lots more were the compliments we received from the guests."How I wish I also had a friend like Kiara," Pearl mumbled, which made all of us laugh.The couple walked to where the car was parked. They were leaving
To say I was shunned to see the first lady kneeling in front of me was an understatement, which also made me feel embarrassed."Stand up please, you are embarrassing me" I cautioned"I'm deeply sorry for what happened in the past. I'm not apologizing because I'm in this position but because I am remorseful. If I didn't try to separate Liam from Maya in the beginning, they would have been living happily with Diamond, likewise you and Ryan. I am a selfish mother who only thought about herself" she sobbed"Forgive me, Kiara. I've done more harm than good but yet, your love conquers all and still brings Maya back to Liam. My apologies to your mother and brother too. I've told my lawyer to will my properties for you and Maya, he will come to visit you anytime from now on, make sure you acknowledge it" she added"Oh no! You don't have to do that. I've forgiven you before you think of apologizing, so you don't need to will your properties for us" I declined immediatelyShe smirked before she
"Doctor, my son is too young to go through all the pain. Is there any other alternative?" I begged"Miss Smith, the only solution is surgery but don't worry, the professional will handle it and we can assure you that the success rate is high. The only problem is how we are going to get a heart donor. A heart donor is always someone ready to die and it's very rare to get. Moreso, we have two days to get the donor, that's our concern right now" he explainedI fell on my butt, finding it difficult to think straight."Does that mean I'm gonna lose my son if we aren't able to get a donor? Who would wanna die for my son to live?" I Muttered★★★★★★★★★★★★★The whole family was glimpsing at Leonard, through the transparent glass, including Ryan who was looking pitiful at his son.Lots of tubes were connected to his body and a long tube passed through his lung from his mouth, which made his mouth wide open.The hospital had to add his name on the list for a heart transplant and there was no ass
Forty-five minutes passed without any hope of getting out of there. Assuming my hands were free, I would have carried my son and ran out of the building.The boy was still sleeping which made me wonder if all was well with him but the escape took the majority of my thought.After a few seconds, I began to hear footsteps like some people were coming inside the room.I was at first scared because I thought they were sent to finish the job that Laura had started but on second thought, I was glad that they were coming to save us. Why? Because Laura wouldn't send people after she has already finished what she started.Suddenly, the footsteps halted, not moving again. My happiness turned into sadness immediately."Kiara! Kiara!!Kiara!!!" I heard the voices, echoing into the entire building."I'm here!" I gathered the remaining strength and screamed."Where?" One of the voices questioned againI looked around to check what to use to describe the room entrance but I recalled not getting glare
"Who the heck did this?" Ryan took the phone from me, staring at Leonard who was sleeping like nothing happened.The cops moved closer to us and took the phone, in an attempt to track the number. I was standing in Akimbo, likewise waiting for the number to be tracked and to get to the location where the person was hiding.One of the reporters came inside to ask for the update, which the cops replied to and he went back outside to update others.I was too weak to cry and the energy in me had been exhausted. If not for the motherhood Spirit in me, I would have given up, though I was rest assured that my son is doing fine, with the picture that was sent to me.After trying for one hour, the number couldn't be tracked. According to the head cop, the number was unregistered and it seemed to be a special number.A call was put across the telecommunication company, asking for the details of the person that has the number but all effort proved to be abortive.The phone beeped again after thir
No, no, no! It cannot be. Kimberly must be mistaken, how would she tell me that my son is missing? What the heck is she trying to say? Ryan and I hurriedly wore our clothes and we rushed to check out of the hotel.He began to drive at a very high speed. At one point, I forgot about Leonard and started thinking about my Life."Ryan" I screamed when I watched him overtake a big truck."Sit properly angel, we need to get home as fast as possible" he replied, overtaking another bus."Ryan, please, you need to drive slowly. Take things easy please, we need to get home in a good state" I pleaded but it fell on deaf ears."Call Liam now and inform him about what happened" he Instructed.I picked up my phone, amidst his reckless driving to dial Liam's number."Hello" he picked up the call instantly"Oh, my God! Ryan!!!" I shouted when I was a truck moving towards us. I thought I was going to die but Ryan was fast enough to divert the car to the other side."Kiara, what happened? Are you ther
I wasn't in the right state to drive a car. I rushed to the hallway, trying to stop a taxi. It took me a lot of time before I was able to find one."Hilton Hotel" I informed the taxi driver, who started driving almost immediately."Faster please" I instructed him"Hope all is okay ma'am?" The old man questioned"Will you keep your mouth shut and continue driving?" I fired angrily at him.After what seemed like forever, he parked in front of the hotel. I was about to go inside when I heard Liam's voice from behind."Kiara!" He called"Stop running please, people are watching you" he warned and that was when I noticed people's gazes were fixed on me. I managed to fake a smile, though it was hard."Let's go" he added, leading the way into the reception.I was watching Liam talking to the receptionist. Both were smiling like I wasn't there. I didn't have any interest in their conversation but they should be fast."Thank you" I heard Liam saying to the young lady."What took you for so lo
The gun fell from my hand, making me gasp at the view in front of me."Ryan!" I called gently as it was still looking like a dream to me."Ryan!" I cried out this time around. I looked beside me and couldn't find David again, he ran outside.I bent down to Ryan, who was lying helplessly on the floor. I began to shake him rigorously, finding it difficult to believe that I'd shot my lover."Ryan, please don't do this to me. I'm very sorry babe, it wouldn't happen again" I cried"Open your eyes please, what do you want me to tell Leonard? That I killed his father? Open your eyes before I'll shoot myself" I added, crying louder.To my awe, I heard him cough."Ryan, Ryan, can you hear me? Ryan" I slapped his cheeks with my two hands at the same time."Stop it!" He yelled but was very weak. Slowly, he began to open his eyes."What happened? What am I doing on the floor? Whose blood is this?" He questioned.I couldn't be happier to see that he was Alive. I ran a quick check on his body and n
"Noooo! You can't do this to me David please" I begged for mercy after he tore my gown. I knew no one to tell me that I'm doomed. Different thoughts were going through my mind."Who is going to rescue me? Why did I lie to Ryan about coming here? Have I known David has turned into a beast, I wouldn't have come right?"I tried to gain freedom but my energy was no match to his own.Shortly after, he finally tore down the gown, leaving me with pants and a bra."David, this is not going to make me love you. It's gonna let me hate you forever! I know you are doing this because of obsession but don't rape me please" I begged and was trembling at the same time."I don't fucking care! Isn't that the reason you went back to him after so many disappointments from his family? Oh, you thought I didn't know? I heard he fuck well and you can't get enough of his dick but I'll prove you wrong! I'll let you know that I fuck better than him! I'll fuck you till you are not moving again! You wouldn't have
