"But you know you have to tell him, at least he has the right to know." Granndma Mary said to me, her voice laden with concern.It was the second day I got to know I was pregnant and grandma had been advising me on thousand of reasons why I need to inform Andrew about the pregnancy."He doesn't even want to see me. I don't think he would give me any audience." I said quietly but grandma only frowned her face."You haven't even try, you must go see him" She said then squeezed my hand. I only nodded and I'd gotten ready immediately to come see him. Currently I'm in the front of Andrew's mansion after alighting from a cab and paying the cabman who had zoomed off immediately.I sighed and got into the compound after gently pulling the gate. I was surprised seeing no one at the gate. Phew! That was new as I remembered there's Fred the ever ready bodyguard and Andrew's driver who is not always far off away. The house looks completely quiet safe for the occasional sound of the television t

Andrew's POV"What are you going to do?" Elena asked me, as we got back in from outside.I didn't respond at first. My heart was burning with anger so I just kept quiet so I wouldn't go ahead speaking out of turn.How could she even have the audacity to step into my house after all she did? After bringing a man into our supposed home. It's really pathetic when I thought of the incidence and how it had somehow mess up with my head. "Well, don't tell me she still has that effect on you." Elena said but I knew it was more of a question."She has no effect on me. I meant every word when I told her we are done." I responded wiping the sweats that were beginning to form on my brows."And the pregnancy?""What about it?" I asked irritated by the word itself."Are you going to accept it?" Her voice was slightly raised. But that didn't bother me, I knew it wasn't because of me. It was because of Gwen who had shown up to spoil the great weekend we were supposed to be having."No!" I replied cu

GWEN'S POV"You're not gonna be in there forever you know,"Granny's voice bounced through the door shortly after she knocked for the fourth time. I could. I could basically stay here forever. I could die of this heartache. Why did it hurt so badly? Why did Andrew's rejection hurt this badly? He didn't want me anymore. He didn't want our baby. I sniffled as fresh tears trickled down to the pillow. Another knock disrupted my thoughts. "Just go away!" I yelled at my grandmother. I was irritated with not just myself but with everyone around me. Granny thought she was helping by persisting. I opened the door but she was only pissing me off."I don't want to talk," I growled at my closed door. "Just go away." I sobbed. "You've been in there for over two days now since you..."I rolled over and had the pillow pressed tightly to my ears in a sick attempt to muffle the name that was going to follow. But as though she caught herself, Granny trailed off and remained silent. "I am not a

ANDREW'S POV"You are not listening!" Elena barked with her gaze narrowing my way. I blew out my cheeks, slammed my computer shut, and snapped my head right at her. "What's this about?" I tried as hard as I could to maintain the perceptible mildness. I couldn't show Elena her constant nags were telling on my mental health. It was just a few days and I was already going nuts. "What if Gwen's child is yours what are you going to do about it?""Only a DNA test can confirm that." I shrugged. She stepped closer to my home office desk and leaned into it, leaning closer as though to smack her words straight into my brain. "That baby isn't yours. There's no need for a paternity test. Forget about her." Her lips contorted grotesquely, "Let's get married."My eyes snapped at her and my jaws sagged. Elena was high on something because how the heck was anyone ever going to describe this attitude?"I just got out of a marriage." I scanned my brain for what to add to that when there was noth

GWEN'S POV"All fixed."Ricky announced with his footsteps heavy on the stairs as he descended the stairs with the rucksack he had on earlier. My attention was rooted in the country-style home decor magazine Granny picked regularly. I heard him. I chose to ignore him. "Where's Nonna?" He glanced around the entire living area. "You have a phone for a reason." I snickered without looking away from the magazine. "I don't have any." He sighed.His reply made me tear my gaze from the papers darting it his way. He had moved to where he had abandoned his guitar. He slung it across his shoulder. "Do you carry that around all the time?" I scrunch my nose and fixed my eyes on his guitar. He chose to let my question hang. He delved right into his rucksack and retrieved a pen and a notepad. Ripping out a sheet he scribbled on it and handed it to me. "That's what I charge. Be a good one and give this to Nonna."I barely gave the paper in my hand a glance before I gazed back at him. "I don

GWEN'S POV"I can't drive and you know it!" I called out from the kitchen from where I was chunking on the glob of burger on my plate."Yes, you can." Granny set a glass of water before me, "It's about time you get over this fear of yours.""I can't okay? And I'm not going to let my anxiety kick in, not minutes to my first appointment with my obstetrician.""You are going to be alright darling. Or would you rather Uber there?"I rolled my eyes at her suggestion. It wasn't even helping. "Feels like the whole world is turning on me." I huffed shoving aside my now-empty plate of breakfast. "No darling, don't say such terrible things.""But it's true. Look I can't go for my doctor's appointment with my husband, not even a friend or anyone. Do you know just how scarring that is?""I am coming with you. You're not alone.""Most girls go with their husbands." I snorted feeling the weight of Andrew's divorce on my shoulder. "You're growing bitter. Stop. Life is going to sort things out. Ju

GWEN'S POV "Am I not supposed to be given a couple of days notice at least?" I snorted, "I have other plans!""If your other plan is staying in bed all day, shoving some Häagen Dazs down your throat with the Kleenex piled up in the trash basket, then I'm happy to break that plan." Granny sounded from the hallway. I huffed and puffed as I refuted. There was no way I was going to volunteer to take a bunch of kids around on a trip. It just wasn't my thing especially now I was pregnant. "I'm pregnant and can't be making reckless decisions," I added just so Granny could change her mind on this. It didn't seem to work because she cocked her head into my room and offered a smile."All set. Aren't you packed yet?" Her eyes narrowed at me. "I already told you I don't want to go on this trip." My lips curled to a pout. She moved further into the room and sat closer to me in bed. Her eyes fell on the Kleenex box I did a terrible job concealing. "I can't leave you behind knowing you might

GWEN'S POV"Pleasure to have you on this trip."Someone settled beside me on the bus. It was the only vacant seat left and I didn't need to glance around to know exactly who it was. The amusement at the edge of his tone was just enough to give away who it was. Ricky. It wasn't until I glanced at him did I noticed the smirk on his face. "The seat is taken," I tried to shoo him off. The least I wanted was to have him stick this close enough to throw humorous remarks. "Carly's in the back seat. I don't see who else deserves this seat better than I do." He mumbled with a nervous chuckle. "Could you try not to be so loud?" I let out an exasperated breath. He smacked his lips shut with his eyes searching the bus as though to confirm the boys were in their seats before they wandered my way and then outside as the bus began to move. The girls hummed in excitement to some song on the radio. This wasn't the best experience for me but I had to make it work. I prayed their off-key voices

Gwen's POV“Rickard Gilbert. You have been found guilty of all of the charges against you. You are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labor” The judge gave his final verdict.I sighed with relief as I realized that all of my problems were gradually coming to an end.A month has passed since the incident. During the struggle between Andrew and Rickard at the warehouse, a trigger was pulled and a bullet went through Rickard's left leg.The case didn't hold immediately because Rickard needed to recover before he could face the court.Jake and Dr. James both testified against Rickard, and Fred presented the court with evidence indicating Rickard pulled the trigger on Brody.Elena's statement also helped with the case but unfortunately, she slipped into a coma.She was closely monitored by the police. As soon as she regains her consciousness, she will also pay for her crimes.Hopefully, she receives a lighter sentence because she was the only reason my sons were healthy and wi

Gwen's POVNanny Rose's memorial service was held in her hometown, and Granny and I attended to pay our final respects.We boarded the next flight to Oklahoma and returned home later that evening. The house felt incredibly empty without the children and Nanny Rose.It seemed like I was in a completely different place. I walked to the sofa and shut my eyes tightly.It has been quite an awful month for me and I don't think I will recover any time soon.As soon as I picked up my phone, I received a call from Andrew asking me to come to the hospital. My heart skipped a beat because I knew the hospital spelled bad news.Granny insisted on tagging along but I didn't let her. She has also been through a lot, which has had a negative impact on her health.I tried reaching Ricky to drive me there but he wasn't picking so I decided on taking a cab there.******“What's wrong Andrew?” I asked as soon as I saw him in the waiting room.There were numerous police officers patrolling around the area

Rickard's POVI stormed into the room where I had kept the children captive. Their instant sobs and screams became a nuisance to my ears.“Would you both shut up for fuck sake?” I yelled, throwing a wooden chair across the room, and the kids shook with fear.I made the room comfortable for them, I mean, I still remain their favorite uncle right?"I want to go to my mummy," Ethan stated, rubbing his cheeks with both hands.“Shut up you little brat, mummy is not coming” I yelled, slamming my hand against the wall vigorously.Elena rushed into the room as Ethan's sobbing became louder."Oh, poor child, do not cry," she said, stepping closer to Ethan. She sat on the room's bed and cradled Ethan in her arms.“You really don't have to scare them like this Rickard. They are our key to a good life” Elena said, staring at me intently.I scoffed audibly.“Since when did you start to care about the children and their well being?” I asked sarcastically."I am not a monster, Ricky, I have always h

Gwen's POV I watched how Andrew's face turned pale. I had no doubt that Rickard was on the other end of the phone. Andrew lowered the phone from his ear and stared at me without saying anything. “What happened?” “He threatened to harm the children, but I won't let him Gwen, I promise” Andrew said, taking my hands into his. "I know you won't," I replied, smiling lightly at him. He was the only person I fully trusted to bring my kids back. He was their father, he had the money and influence and I knew he was willing to give Rickard all his properties. He loved the boys that much. “Let me drive you home Gwen” Andrew offered. “I came with Ricky, it's only right I go back with him” I declined politely. “Alright Gwen, I will meet you at the house” Andrew said, softly planting a kiss on my cheeks. I got into the car with Ricky and he drove me home. On the way to the house, I could not stop thinking about how Rickard learned about our plan to ambush him. It only meant one thing, so

Andrew's POVI impatiently stared at the footage that captured how Rickard bulged into the house and came out with my children.“How could you be careless? You were assigned to look after my children," I yelled angrily, slamming my hands against the table.My phone began buzzing just as the chief of police was about to speak. It was an unknown number. I had an immediate suspicion that it was Rickard calling.I picked my phone and placed the call on loud speaker. The chief of police quickly asked his assistant to connect my mobile phone to the cellular location system in order to track down Rickard's exact location.“Hello big bro” Rickard said over the phone.“You scoundrel, where are you? Where are my children” I yelled vehemently over the phone.“Oh big bro, why are you being aggressive? The kids are having a little fun time with their favorite uncle” Rickard said sarcastically over the phone.My anger surged, and I could feel my blood crackling. If I ever get my hands on Rickard, I

Gwen's POV“No! No! No!” I continuously kept on saying. With every word I said, I took a step back.I almost lost my balance if not because of Ricky who supported me from behind.Nanny Rose lay on the floor in her own pool of blood, and the room's window was wide open.Ethan and Evan were not in their beds, and I could feel my heart breaking into little pieces. I released myself from Ricky's grip and ran towards the window.“Ethan! Evan!” I yelled at the top of my voice.Granny rushed into the room and was taken aback as soon as she saw the scene. She quickly took out her phone and dialed the ambulance.Ricky dashed out of the room to inform the cops about the kidnapping.I was left in shock and I kept on calling out to my boys, magically hoping that they would appear in front of me.I sat on the floor and burst into tears. My children were my weakness and if anything should happen to them, I don't think I would ever move on.I wished I had put them to bed myself, then maybe all this

Gwen's POVI sat beside Andrew staring at him quietly. His chelation therapy had been going on for more than four days, and he was already doing well.The pale color of his skin was gradually vanishing and he was regaining his actual skin complexion.The doctor said that if he continued to respond well to the treatment, he would be discharged in less than a week.I tucked his hands into mine and gently squeezed them.“They won't get away with what they did to you, I promise” I said softly.Suddenly, I heard the door to the room unlocked.“Fred, is that you?” I said, slightly turning my face in the direction of the door.“Attorney Frederick,” I exclaimed, getting up to my feet. “You are here?”“Well yes, I flew to Oklahoma as soon as I heard the news. How is Andrew doing?” Attorney Frederick asked, moving closer to Andrew's bed.“He is responding well to treatment sir. He will soon be back on his feet” I spoke calmly.“Did Rickard really do everything he was accused of?” Attorney Frede

Rickard's POVI continued to clench my teeth. If I had not followed Andrew out of the house, I would probably be in jail by now.“Damn it” I exclaimed furiously.I sat on the bed in the small room and dug my hands into my hair. How could I have been so dumb not to notice that i was being followed.“Fuck!” I yelled, smashing my phone across the wall.“There is no use smashing your phone across the wall Rickard. You sold us out” Elena glared furiously.“What the hell are you even saying? You should be glad I brought you along with me” I said angrily.I instantly regretted my decision. I should not have told Elena about Andrew's discovery. I should have gone into hiding and let her pay dearly for our crimes.Now I was stuck with her and her constant nagging. I was sure that going to jail wouldn't be as bad as being in the same space with Elena.Perhaps I should just turn myself in to the police.“God damnit” I murmured to myself.“We are fucking low on cash Rickard. How are we going to s

Gwen's POVI asked Fred to drive me home after leaving the hospital. On our way there, I paid for our flight tickets to New York.My plan was to subdue Dr. James. He will not go scot free for conniving with Rickard to lie about Andrew's health.I will ensure that he and Jake are transferred to Oklahoma prison so that when Rickard and Elena are apprehended, they can testify against them.My flight was scheduled for 9p.m that evening so I decided to go home first.When I arrived at the house, the scene reminded me of when Sophie escaped. There were officers patrolling around my house.I asked Fred to wait for me in the car while I went to get some of my stuff in the house.“Gwen, what is going on?” Granny said as soon as she saw me walking in. She carried that worried look across her face which made me wonder when all this will come to an end.“Remain in the house Granny and make sure you keep a close eyes on Ethan and Evan.” I said before dashing upstairs.Granny wouldn't just settle f
