Cathy is have an insomnia. "No, don't hurt her, I beg you, don't..." "Shh! Wake up, no one is hurting anyone." Cathy opened her eyes and hugged him tight, it's Craig. "Don't leave me, I don't want to die." "No one will hurt you, I am here now, till am I alive, no one will hurt you." She wipes her face, only to see Craig sitting at the bedside of Cathy. "You are having a bad dream again?" She nodded. "What did you see this time?" "Is a girl, she is been raped to death, I don't know her but then I was looking at her, and then my face appear on the rape girl." "What?" Craig said almost yelling. "Yes, it was really scary, it's a good thing, it's a dream." She said, Craig pulled her face up. "Cathy, I beg you, don't ever leave this place, don't go anywhere don't even come to work." "But!" "Yes, don't do anything outside this building not even the last exit door." Craig's words were commanding, and she nodded. "How did you get in here?" Cathy asked him. "Your mother said I could get
"Yes, you; Whitney, and mother, in fact, including Betty, the four of you are leaving." "But why?" Cathy asked. "Jane is dead, is like she is working with the people against Gregory, and Linda the girl is also dead.""No," Cathy falls to the couch. "Yes, it's a good thing that Craig got your phone, that idiot might have lured you into meeting up with him." George said, Cathy, closed her eyes, "No! It can't be." "Yes, so you all will have to leave, I don't want to lose you, I don't want anything to happen to you and we suspect Casper." "No way, Casper can't hurt anyone," Cathy said. "Really?" Whitney throws her phone to Cathy. Someone just sends Whitney a message, showing that Casper and Jane are behind the arson during Cathy's wedding. "No oh! How could Casper? Why did he hurt me like that? I trusted him." Cathy cry then she remembers seeing Jane in Casper's mansion. "Yes, I saw them together but he told me a stupid story that I buy," Cathy said, and she cried more. "At this po
And that he had double cross Jane. He is there waiting patiently for Gregory only to see Craig. "You!" "Yes me, you think, he will come so you kill him?" Craig asked in anger. "Wait, is not what you think?""What do I think? You kill Jane after you and her plan to take Whitney out of the picture and you are after Gregory's life. maybe because she wants to back out...""No, I only..." "Shut up! Tell me the truth." Craig brings out his gun. "You should tell me, I could let you go off the hook because of Cathy.""No, I..." He didn't finish his words, someone shot him. "Craig!" He yelled he rushed to him before he could take Casper's hand, and he fell over the edge. "Casper!" He yelled! At that moment, Gregory gets there. "Craig!" Gregory runs to him, he starts in shock. "what have you done?" "I swear, I didn't kill him." "You have to get out of here now." "But...""Can't you hear the sirens, they will arrest you." Craig pushed his hair back in frustration. "Run!" Gregory yelled
"No, he is my brother." He screamed Roland looked at him, and Rachael slapped him again. "He is not your brother, I didn't give birth to a monster, you are my only son and that of your dad." "No!" Roe shakes his head. "No! Did you know why the company didn't go bankrupt before I met Cathy was because of him?" Roe asked Rachael, Roland looked at him. "Yes, the last deal I sealed was not done by me, it was him who submitted that proposal, and it was he who got the investor to invest in our company, I never knew until I saw the same signature a few days back at the office when he gave me a file to work on, the investor said, he said, the person is my PA." Roland's tears drop. "That is not true," Rachael yelled. "Really? Did you know that, when I was in college, the day our hostel got burned and many lost their lives, did you know how I survived?' 'It was him, the boy in all black is him." "Who told you that?" Rachael asked him. "I saw his birthmark, which is the same birthmark he h
Cathy didn't say a word, her tears dropped like rain, and Gregory pulled her hand. "Believe me, Craig is not..." Just then Roe ran into the airport. "Catherine!" He called and then hugged her, George was boiling. "What are you doing here?" George's coarse voice came up. "Catherine, you need to hear this...""Your brother is in jail, he is accused of killing Casper, we know, come on Cathy, let's leave," George said sarcastically and then pulled Cathy's hand. "Cathy, Craig needs you now, even if you have to leave, I could take you to him, first before you leave," Gregory said but Roe held his hand. "No, you should run for your life, Craig said, you should go into hiding, they are after you now, someone send a video with your face raping Linda to death, as it is, you are wanted." "Huh!" Whitney yelled, Gregory's tears dropped. "Yes, you should leave the cops are after you now." Roe's words didn't finish before the security started approaching, if they came too close then they might
"I am sorry, sorry Craig, for all the pain, I made you go through because I am stupid, you are always thinking about me and then I hurt you." "Stop it, Greg!" Ruth said hugging him, he was feeling bad for the pain, he was putting Craig. "The last thing that Craig will want to see, are you breaking down." Ruth moved from him, she was going to her car, she yelled. "This isn't fair, it's always me, it's always me that has to pay the consequences, it's me that doesn't have a husband, it's me that will soon be childless, why do I have to take all the curse? Why should the blame always come to me? Haven't I suffered enough?" That minute, Zoe walks in on them, her tummy is big, and Ruth looks at her all surprised. I am pregnant for a son but he left me." Ruth cried more as Zoe said that, how could she find out she was expecting a grandchild and then losing her son, he hugged her and cried more. ******When Cathy gets home, she is exhausted. "Child! You should rest." Flora said she nodded
"Shut up, how can he hurt her?" Roland said, the next thing, Craig moved the gown she was wearing up, and Cathy held his hand. "What are you doing?" She asked still closing her eyes. 'I want to see what is on your tummy, I also want to take it off because you are not comfortable sleeping with it." "Oh! Is a ball." She raise her gown for Craig he smiled. "Let me help you out." He said taking it off, she gasped for her. "Thanks, it's discomforting, I wonder how pregnant women cope with this thing every night." "When you get pregnant you will know how to," Craig speaks with a soft voice, Cathy looks at him, and then he caresses her face. "I missed you, I thought I would never see you again." "Why will you miss me? I am not your fiancee." Cathy's words were straight, he took her hand. "I..." Victor rushes into the room, it's early hours of the morning depriving Craig of saying what he wanted to say. "You need to leave the cops are here, your dad is trying to distract them but they
Now she knows that Cathy is the lady who saved her son but she can't bring herself to thank her, she doesn't want her son for her, especially now that her son is expecting a baby from Zoe, she doesn't want him to have two wives like his dad or even her grandkids having two mothers. "Where does your sister take my son?" Ruth yelled. "Stop yelling in my house, I should ask you that, it's your son who has lured my sister into this madness, and right now, she is a fugitive all thanks to your son." "I am not...""Ruth, that is enough, you should be grateful that she helped him not the other way around," Roland said she left in anger. "I am sorry for my aunty's behavior, she is just stressed," Gregory said, George just nodded and looked at Roe. "I am sorry that your family gets into much pain because of my family." George looks at him. "What do you do?" He asked. "I am sorry, I am the mastermind of Cathy's failure at the law school." Roland's words didn't shock George, he looked at him
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
