Whitney walks to Tony and Cathy, and Gregory follows behind her. "Hey sister, come over here and sit, let's eat." "I am hungry but I don't have an appetite""Why? Are you sick?" Cathy asked touching her forehead, she turned her face and looked at Gregory, she winked at him. "Is not me, is just that the pain he felt...""Is Craig alright?" Cathy asked standing up. "Go on and tell me." Whitney didn't say a word, Cathy got her keys and phone. 'Beans pie, where are you going?" "Don't ask me." She darts outside, Tony hits the table. "What was that for?" "Just letting you know that, you are no longer Cathy's priority, someone else is taking over your place." "Whitney, you are...""I don't intend to deprive you of your lunch, enjoy your lunch, I am gone, come, Greg, let's leave, Craig might need an extra hand." Whitney pulled Gregory's hand, and they both walked outside, Whitney laughed hard as she hit on Gregory. "Did you see his face? He looks hilarious, he doesn't know, I am not g
Gregory knows that Craig doesn't believe in God, and talks more like a mere human, Whitney has to return home that night because Casper is back and Mrs. Cole will be back in two days. "Welcome home, I missed you." "Did you miss me or are you happy that you are free to flirt with the love of your life?" "Casper stop talking nonsense, the deal did you get it?" Whitney asked changing the topic. "Hm! If you don't want us to discuss it, fine, I get it.""Whoa!" Whitney jumped on him. "This is good news, we will celebrate this in a fortnight when the mother is back." "Sure, she is excited to return, but I don't know her reasons," Casper said as he went inside to take his shower, he was really tired, Whitney pulled the ring Gregory gave to her "Greg, I am sorry, I have to take it off for now." She said to herself as she pulled it out, the next day, Craig was back to work but he and Cathy were not in talking teams. "Hey, bean pie!" Tony called her. "You must be tired, you should rest."
"What did the doctor say? Is mother going to be fine?" "Whitney, get out of here, I will never forgive you, if anything happens to my mother, you are a wicked soul." He pushed Whitney who was crying as well. 'Casper, I didn't mean to...""I said get out, I don't want to see you here." "Casper calm down, Mrs. Cole will be fine, you don't have to be so hard on her, she didn't...""She is your sister, so you will take sides with her, if anything happens to my mother then it will be payback, a mother for a mother." "Casper, my mother has nothing to do with this, so leave her out of this." George is getting angry but he just doesn't want to show it. "I am not doing anything for now but I don't want to see her, she should leave before I do something bad to her." "Fine, if you don't want her here I will also leave." "All of you, get out, go away, I will survive it, and Whitney, don't ever come to my house again and I don't want to see your face." Whitney's tears drop, she doesn't see
Craig's tears drop, he hates himself more. "Does he have to hurt her because of me? Yes, Tony is right, it was me who killed her mother and shattered her life, not him, I am such a bad omen to her." Craig dragged the gun out. "Craig, what are you doing with a gun? How did you even get a gun?" "I bought it on my way back, it's licence don't worry." He grabs the door, and Gregory goes after him. "Where are you going?" "To stop the madness, to end it all." He darts into his car, and Gregory goes with him, he is flying, and Gregory is getting scared. "Craig, where are we going?" "I told you, you will see it, I needed to have done this right from the beginning." He is right in Roland's mansion, Gregory grabs his hand. "Craig; let's leave from here, this will cause you more trouble.""I will not leave until I accomplished what brought me here." He bangs on the gate. "Roland comes out," Craig yelled. "Stop it, let's leave." When the security opens the gate, Craig matches him, giving him
"Oh! You think there is no bullet." Craig pulls the trigger, and Cathy runs into the bullet, it meets her hand"Ouch!" Cathy yelled she looked at her hand that was bleeding, and Craig's eyes bulged out, he threw the gun away and ran to Cathy. "Baby!" Craig called and hugged her. "I am sorry, you should have let me finish this idiot." "Arrest him." Victor gives the order to security. "Don't touch him." Roland yelled, the security just stood still, and Victor looked at Roland. "come on let's take her to the hospital." Roland said. Cathy tries to suppress the pain, the blood is pumping like water, Craig takes off his shirt and ties her with it. "I am sorry! Sorry baby!" He said again as Cathy passed out. "Shit! Can't you drive?" He yelled at Roland's driver, Roland didn't say a word to him, he was just staring at him through the mirror, so his son could love someone like this. "Craig calms down, she is not dead, she is just unconscious." Gregory tries to calm him, getting to the hospit
The security got off the way, Craig smiled, and Jessica ran to Jeremy. "Please, let my son be." "Let him be? That rascal of a boy, who called himself my nephew is teaching him to be rude, I will deal with both of them." Craig laughed hard as he drove, Flora was looking at him, this boy was a rascal. "Do they think I have a bullet in it?" He said and laughed more, he increased the speed. "Craig, go slow, can't you see it's not just the two of us?""Sorry, ma!" He looks at Flora through the side mirror, Flora moves her head a bit, showing that it's fine. "Thanks for saving me." "It's okay, we are sorry, it's because of me, that my dad locked you in that place, I am sorry." Gregory said, Flora looked at him, and now she saw the reason why Gregory must have had to break up with her daughter back then, maybe, he also wanted to protect her from stuff like this. Craig drives her to George's mansion when Flora alights from the car, Whitney is outside she has returned from the hospital and
"Hey man, where did you go? You disappeared on us." Gregory asked as Craig walked in. "I needed air." "Guess what?" "Her mother caught you too misbehaving and she yelled at you." Gregory looks at him. "Are you alright?" "I am leaving." "What? Where are you going?" "I want to go to Germany, I will have my ticket fixed and I am fixing yours as well." "What?" "Relax, I just want you to be with me for the first two weeks, so I don't go crazy, my staying here every day, reminds me of the fact that I was a big part of her trouble and she told me to my face, that I should pity her." "So you leaving? What about me? How about the...""Stop it, I have informed Brian to be here, and he said he will be here in two weeks, so for those two weeks, I will still carry on with my job but I will be doing that from my house." "Do you still want to return to your mansion?" "Yes, I need peace of mind too." Gregory sighed badly, Craig was packing his stuff, and then he saw Cathy's mailbox. "You d
Whitney has to go to work the next day, but she doesn't go to Casper because Casper is mad at her, Casper doesn't come to work because he is the only one who can care for his unconscious mother, Gregory is busy with the company's other projects, Craig didn't come to work, he is trying to get his ticket so he can leave for Germany. Cathy needs to get her treatment, so she leaves for the hospital, when she is done, Cathy is with her check-up, and she is leaving when she sees Casper crying in the lobby. "Who is that? Is that not Casper? What is he doing here?" Cathy said walking to him. "Hey!" "Hello Cathy, what happened to your hand?" Cathy looks at him. "I was shot mistakenly, so what are you doing here and crying?" "Didn't Whitney tell you?" Cathy looks at him in surprise. "Tell me what?" "That my mom is in comatose for a week now?" "No, they didn't tell me, I am so sorry, so you are the only one caring for her." "Yes, I hated your sister, I don't want her coming close to me and
It was like a dream come true for Cathy and Craig. She never thought she could find love and Craig never thought he could fall for any girl but now they found love and want to stay in love. Craig; Cathy, Whitney, and Gregory, suffer a lot having one life tangled with another it's a bad dream even when you have your issues. Talk more of adding to it, they finally found rest, after the curse was broken, not for just them but for their entire clan, Craig didn't become the king when the gods asked him to request what he wanted him to do for him, he pleaded with the gods to appoint someone's else in his place, now people of the clan could plant and eat their fruit, no more high death rate, Craig can paint freely so do Roe, he can act movies but they still run the business. when the two companies finally merged they hit success in the very first year, and Roland's dream of his two sons working side by side came true. Not as enemies but as an ally, they became best of friends and siblings l
"I have done my part, so, let her start moving before I get mad." Craig orders, Ruth and Jessica laugh, and they go to her and return. "We need more cash, she is hungry," Betty said."Food? Didn't she eat before leaving home?" Craig yelled, Gregory hit his head slightly. "Stop doing everything with force," Gregory said, he dragged his phone out and dropped it on Betty's hand. "I have nothing left just don't ask for more." "we will see about that?" Betty got it and left Then they turned instead of Cathy moving forward, she was going backward, he wanted to run after her but the little ones stood in front of him"What is it? Get off my way, I have nothing, go away." "Relax, we should blindfold you, if you can touch your Cathy then she will be all yours," Clara said"What?" "Yes, are you doing it?" Wendy asked, he looked at them."You have two seconds to decide or we leave," Riley added, he agreed, and then Roe stepped forward"You, you are in this with them?""Sorry just doing my wo

Two days before the wedding, Cathy had tried almost all the wedding gown designs for her, Craig could criticize them, some hands were too exposed, some of the cleavages were out, and some part of her chest was too revealing"Craig, what about this? Don't you like it?" Cathy is on one but all her cleavage is out. "You are not asking about this? Are you?" Craig said indifferently, Cathy looked at him. "Yes, I don't like it and you should know that.""You should just say, I should go with a quilt." "I never said that they should change it, I don't just like it, I want something perfect.""You don't like it or boys will stare at her?" Whitney asked him. "Yes, you understand me, someone is finally on the same page as me. I don't want people looking at her cleavage like that.""I don't understand you, it's her day, let her have it special," Betty said"I don't want it, let me see the collection of another designer, I need something glamorous," Craig said. Cathy just stood up. "It's fine,
"Did I also tell you that I love you more than life?'"You just did." 'And that you send goosebumps on me when you kiss my neck?'"You also just did.""And when you just told me, that you are Reliance, it means you wanted me to be happy all the time, you know I missed a friend and you want to fill that loneliness in me, you are always thinking about my welfare.""Is because I love you, and I don't want you hurt, even when you reject my love, even if you push me away, I will still keep coming back because I am hooked and no one will want me.""Who told you so?""I just know, I know that, if you go away, my life with be empty." "And mine will be too, so I love you more until my last breath." Whitney looked at Craig and then at Cathy, she wanted to ask Cathy but then she pointed at Craig, and Cathy smiled. "How many exes do you have?" Whitney asked him, Gregory laughed. "What is funny?" George asked Gregory. "You should ask him how many flings has he had." Craig hit him. "Are you by
"I want to tell you, let's go on a cruise, where I will...""Cathy stops," she looks at Craig. "Skip that part." "Why?" Gregory asked. "It's made for my ear alone, so continued after that." Cathy gasped for air. "After that, I will tell you; thank you for...""Stop there and skip," Craig said again if Cathy took the next word all of them would know what that first part said she had practically told him that she would go nude in front of him and asked him to make her a woman. "Then after that, I will force you to marry me," Cathy said low."Can you do all that for me?" Craig asked she just nodded! "Okay, you said you would force me to marry you but you didn't, when we meet again.""I was jealous of Zoe because she is the one in your hands, not me." Craig laughed hard and hugged her tight. "Maybe, we should go do the other part of the letter." "No, let me read the others," Cathy said. "No, I want that part to be fulfilled." "Let's keep it till our wedding night." When Cathy said it
"Thank you, dad." Gregory hugged Jeremy, and Roland stepped on the stage. "Am I welcome?" He asked Craig hugged him, his tears falling. "I am sorry, sorry for hurting you and your mother." "And thank you for hurting me, I am stronger because of you, I forgive you the very day, you let me seek refuge in your house, that is while I call you dad." Roland hugged him again after a long cry, he tapped his shoulder. "Men don't cry, you should come back to work, remember you are the CEO, and Mega Touch Aviation Empire Intl needs you." Gregory looks at Craig. "I am sorry Dad, I can't, I think Roe should continue being the CEO, I will let Cathy assist him for some time, and if he needs any assistance...""No, you should work with him, you can make the company fly, I am not as good as you." Cathy said, Craig doesn't want to leave Gregory, when they are together, they could move mountains. Roe walks to the stage. "You don't have to choose, the two companies can be merged, imagine, how the co
When the marriage drew closer, Cathy realized that Craig hadn't engaged her, she was so sad"Cathy, are you alright?" Whitney asked. "You don't like any of the gowns?" Betty asked. "I do but when you two got married, didn't you get engaged?" "Yes, we did." Betty reply. "Then why is mine different?" Cathy asked, At that moment, Craig and Gregory walked in, and she rushed to Craig. "Craig, I need an engagement ring, since I should tell you everything." "How many times will I engage you?" He asked Cathy to look at him with a sad face, he put his hands on her top to bring out the ring from her neck. "What are you doing?" She asked as Craig grabbed the ring. "You want everything twice, you are such a selfish girl." "No, you haven't engaged me, go on and do it.""Silly girl; do you ever let me talk?" Craig drags her nails. "Stop it, you should not engage me with someone else ring.""But the ring is from me," Craig said, Cathy, looked at him surprised. "Yes, the ring is mine, I wante
"Creamy! What is it?" Gregory hugged her behind, as her back pressed against his chest while Gregory rested lazily on his shoulder. "Why can't you treat me like Craig do to Cathy? Craig loves Cathy.""I love you creamy.""I know but do you love me?" Whitney asked him, Gregory caressed her arms."Come on, I do, I love you, you should know better." "But you don't show me love the way Craig does to Cathy, you don't worship my ground, Craig calls her my lady." "But I call you creamy." "Fine, I know but...""Whitney, I love you and you break my heart when you think I don't." "Alright, fine, I need to rest." "Whitney!" "Let me be, I want to rest." Whitney walks passed him and returns to his room, Gregory scratches his head, he knows that Whitney is mad, Craig is in the living room, and when Gregory returns, he looks at Craig. "How do you do it?" "Do what?" Craig asked Gregory. "Show your affection," George added he knows that, even if Betty doesn't say, she too wants such attention
