Hi my dearest readers, do you think Serene deserves the flowers? Let's meet in the comment section. Blessings
While they were eating, Mr Johnson received a call from the company's Fashion designer, “Hello Mr Johnson, sorry to trouble you, don’t you have Mr Mark Anthony’s phone number?”Mr Johnson looked annoyed and asked, “Why do you want Mark’s phone number for since he is no longer working at Johnson Group?”The Fashion designer replied, “A lot of people are placing orders for baby clothes that he designed but I don’t have his designs. I want to ask him to send me his designs.”Mr Johnson became so upset and sneered, “Are you not a Fashion designer yourself? Why did I hire you if you cannot surpass Mark?Don’t you ever call me about this matter again or contact Mark. Mark designed baby clothes as a gift for me.” Then he hung up the phone.His wife looked at her husband with worried eyes and asked, “Hubby, what’s the matter?” Her husband replied, “Sugar Lump received lots of baby clothes orders which were designed by Mark before he left.I don’t understand why he wants Mark’s phone number, s
James’ words hurt Serene deeply. Did he just call her trash? For the first time, she wished that her parents were still alive. She was the apple of her parents’ eye, she missed them so much. Her parents passed away because of Victoria.She killed her parents, and her husband just called her trash because of Victoria. Her father-in-law wished that Victoria was still his daughter-in-law. She felt that the world had abandoned her.Deep down in her heart, she knew that she was the cause of everything that was happening in her life. She took James’ love for granted, she wanted to be Mrs Johnson so badly.Since she was young, her goal was to marry into a wealthy family. Was it worth it? She was starting to doubt her decision to be with James even though she didn’t love him.James walked out of the bathroom wearing a robe, then he dressed and headed down to the dining room to eat.His parents were already in the dining room eating. He sat down, then poured coffee into his cup. The Housekeepe
Victoria was sitting on her husband’s lap on the balcony watching the ocean. Mark was looking at his wife affectionately, “Sweetheart, do you want to go somewhere before we go back home?”Victoria looked at her handsome husband and replied, “Baby, I would like to buy a gift for Mrs Reed as a token of appreciation, please take me to Ballito Mall. Also, I want to buy gifts for our family. Durban is famous for its beautiful beadwork.”Mark nodded his head and replied, “I saw stalls of beadwork along the beach, we will go there after we check out.” Victoria wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him gentle. Then they headed down to the dining room for breakfast.Chef Ray was in the kitchen when he saw them he took the dishes to the dining room. He prepared porridge, a full English breakfast with croissants. He greeted them, then he started serving them.Victoria smiled at him and said, “Thank you Chef Ray for the delicious food, we enjoyed every meal you prepared for us.”Chef Ray wa
On their way home, Mark invited his father-in-law and his father to have dinner with them. He briefly told them that he had a surprise for them.He didn’t want to tell them over the phone that Mrs Reed had given them a beautiful house without paying her a cent.In the meantime, Victoria was on the phone talking to Tamara. She invited her for dinner and asked her to bring her brothers and Zion. Tamara was over the moon and asked, “What did you bring me sister-in-law?”Victoria smiled and replied, “You will see when you are here.” Tamara was so excited she promised to bring Zion and her brothers along.Mark and Victoria agreed to have dinner at home instead of going to His Wings restaurant. Victoria smiled sweetly at her husband and said, “Let’s go to the supermarket to buy meat. I will cook a delicious dinner for our family, my love.”Her husband looked at her smiling and replied, “Sweetheart, you are forbidden to enter the kitchen until you give birth to our babies. What will happen if
Aunt Olga looked at Mr Lewis and said, “Brother-in-law, I’m sorry for not contacting my sister all these years, please forgive me. I really loved my parents and my sister; it wasn’t my intention to hurt them, but I couldn’t face my father.”Mr Lewis nodded his head, then Olga walked to her brother-in-law and hugged him. Aunt Olga wiped the tears from her eyes and said, “Let me look at you, my beautiful niece.”Victoria wiped her tears and smiled at her Aunt. Her Aunt looked at her smiling and said, “You look like your mother. People used to praise me for my beauty, but when they saw your mother she took their breath away.When I saw your photo in the Sunday Times something happened in my heart, your beauty captured my heart. When I put my house on the market, I had you in my mind and I was praying for you to come.I have received so many offers, but I turned them down. I told my daughter that I was waiting for you to come. I told her that there was something about you that I couldn’t
After dinner, Tamara looked at her sister-in-law with anticipation in her eyes. Victoria laughed out loud, then she took her bag, she gave her father-in-law and her father their gifts. They were so happy they thanked her.Then she gave Zion and Jonathan their gifts. Zion was shocked. He didn’t expect anything from Victoria. She asked Auntie Angel and Uncle Goodman to join them in the living room, then she gave them their gifts.Auntie Angel was over the moon, she held her gifts close to her chest as if they were treasure. She was touched that Victoria bought them something. She thanked her from the bottom of her heart. Then she gave Tamara her gifts.She was so happy. She hugged and kissed her sister-in-law. She quickly wore her beaded earrings, then she asked her sister-in-law to help her with the necklace. She ran to the mirror to look at herself. She was stunning.Zion looked at her smiling and said, “You look beautiful my love.” Tamara smiled sweetly at him; she was grinning from e
On their way back home, Victoria was sitting in the car quietly, she missed her mother so much. Her father had sacrificed a lot for her. He was thirty-two years old when his wife passed away.He decided not to remarry to protect his lovely daughter from an evil stepmother. Mark didn’t know what to say to his wife to comfort her.When they arrived home, Mark took his wife to their bedroom, then he helped her to wear pajamas, “Sweetheart, take a nap. I will wake you up when lunch is ready.”Victoria nodded her head; Mark took her in his arms and caressed her back until she fell asleep. Then he headed down to the living room where Aunt Olga was drinking tea. Mark looked at her and asked, “How are you feeling, Aunt Olga?”She smiled and replied, “Nephew-in-law, the Lord has been faithful in my life, my heart was full of hatred towards my father and my monster-in-law. The hatred I used to have towards my father is gone.I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulder. When my hus
When they arrived at His Wings restaurant, they bumped into Mr Johnson at the door. He had a meeting with a client. Mr Lewis invited him to join them, and he agreed. They sat around the table.Mr Lewis told him that they were coming from the hospital to do a 3D ultrasound scan. He took out his phone and showed him the photos they had taken. Mr Johnson’s heart melted when he saw baby Pat hugging baby Tim.He wished that the twins belonged to the Johnson family. He lost a good daughter-in-law; James was really blind not to treat Victoria well. Victoria flashed him a bright smile, she was happy to see him.Victoria looked at Jonathan and said, “Brother-in-law, you heard what Dr Cain said, I have to deliver the babies earlier, I think you have to organize a baby shower to be next month.”Jonathan was reminded that he was tasked to organize the baby shower then he smiled brightly and said, “Tamara, would you be so kind as to help me organize this party for my cute nephews?”Tamara smiled a
Six months later, at the Lewis mansion, the atmosphere was lively. The Fish family and the Paul family arrived a week earlier. They couldn't wait to witness the wedding of Victoria and Mark.Grandma Fish was over the moon. She was smiling from ear to ear. Mr Lewis' brothers came with their daughters and their sister, Rebecca. They arrived on Friday afternoon.Their big brother was surprised to see them because they told him that they wouldn't make it to the wedding. He felt that they were not happy to be around him.He looked at his sister, Rebecca, and asked, "Did you force your brothers to come?" Rebecca smiled but she didn't utter a word.At that moment, Victoria entered the house. She was coming from the premarital counseling with Pastor Basil. She didn't know the men sitting with her father.She greeted everyone, and then she hugged her aunt. She wasn't happy to see her but Aunt Rebecca was a relative. Her father smiled at Victoria and said, "Sweetheart, greet your uncles properl
Since Victoria was thirty-nine weeks pregnant, the Anthony siblings decided to hold their father's 50th birthday banquet at the Anthony residence. Dr Cain advised Victoria to give birth naturally and it was an easy pregnancy.Victoria was resting in their bedroom. She was uncomfortable; she visited the bathroom several times to pee. She was cramping and her lower back was painful. She asked her husband to rub her.Mark looked at his wife nervously and asked, "Love, are you having contractions?" Victoria smiled and replied, "I think so, but I will go to the hospital when my water breaks. Please don't tell Dad."Mark was reluctant; he wanted to take her to the hospital. Victoria kissed him passionately and said, "Don't be nervous my handsome husband, it's just an early labour."Mark called Dr Cain and told him that Victoria was in labour but the water hadn't broken yet. Dr Cain said, "Mark, please bring her to the hospital when the contractions are five minutes apart."Mark thanked Dr Ca
It was Friday, the day before Jonathan's graduation ceremony. Mark and his family were at the Anthony mansion. His wife, Victoria, was seven months pregnant. She was resting on the bed with Rafael and Gabriel sitting next to her.They became fascinated when they saw their baby sister kicking their mother. They put their little hands on their mother's stomach and giggled when she kicked them.The Anthony family went to do a 3D Ultrasound scan to see the gender of the baby. They were over the moon when they found that it was a girl.Grandpa Anthony named her after his late wife, Kimberly. The boys were looking forward to meeting their baby sister.The mansion was lively, the White family, Johnson family, and Fish family were laughing in the living room. They came to celebrate Jonathan's Graduation Ceremony.The Anthony family was over the moon. No one knew that Jonathan would ever achieve anything. He proved everyone wrong.

After work, Mark fetched his beloved wife from work. On the way home, he stopped his car beside the road. He looked at his wife and said, "Sweetheart, the grandchild of the Young Group accused Rafael of stealing his food.His mother went to His Blessings Day Care and beat up our son. Dad took him to Dr Cain, he gave him something for swelling and pain."Victoria was so angry her eyes turned red. Her husband hugged her tightly and said, "Dad has dealt with the matter." Then he drove the car to their home.When they arrived home, Rafael and Gabriel were waiting for them at the door. As soon as they saw their parents, they rushed to them. "Daddy, Mommy."Rafael ran to his father, and he picked him up. Gabriel ran to his mother, and she picked him up. When Mark saw Rafael's cheek he was so angry and asked gentle, "Son, is it still hurting?"Rafael smiled and replied, "It's not hurting anymore, Daddy. Grandpa put medicine on my cheek." His mother smiled and said, "Let me kiss your cheek to
Mr Anthony asked Zane to take them to JHB General Hospital. He sat with his grandsons in the back seat. He took his phone and dialed Deon's number. "Hello, Mr Anthony."He was puzzled why his boss was calling him, since Mark was in the office. Mr Anthony said, "Cedric Young's daughter-in-law beat up my grandson, Rafael. She accused him of stealing food.I give you three days to deal with them. Please don't tell Mark." They hung up the phone. Deon was so shocked he couldn't believe his ears. Who had the guts to provoke Mr Anthony?When Mr Anthony became a grandfather he delegated most of his work to Mark. Mr Anthony and Mr Lewis agreed to take turns fetching their grandchildren from Day Care.When it was his turn to fetch his dumplings, he would drop everything and leave the office smiling. Theodore sent him the surveillance footage. When he saw Owen bullying his precious grandchild, he was so angry his heart ached.He went to Dr Cain's office with his grandsons in his arms. He decided
Two years later….It was Grandpa Anthony's turn to fetch his little dumplings from His Blessings Day Care that week. His grandsons were two and a half years old. They were his pride and joy.He parked his black Mercedes Benz in the parking lot, then he walked slowly to the school gate and waited. He was fifteen minutes early, he didn't want his little dumplings to wait for him.His trusted bodyguard, Zane, parked his car beside his boss' car. He was responsible for the well-being of Mr Anthony's grandchildren. A few minutes later, more parents came.As soon as the security guard opened the gate, the young lady rushed towards the three-year-old classroom. As soon as she entered the classroom, she shouted and said, "Baby, show me the boy who ate your sandwiches."Her son pointed his finger at Rafael; the young lady rushed to Rafael and slapped him hard. Mr Anthony tried to block the slap but he was a second too late. He took crying Rafael in his arms and asked fuming, "Why are you beatin
Abigail was in her mansion watching the Press Conference crying. She didn't know that there was evidence proving that her beloved mother had been killed by her stepmother.She was shocked like everyone else when the name of the Limpopo Pharmacy was displayed on the big screen. She was reminded of her father's slaps when she told him that her mother had been killed by her stepmother.She was glad when she saw her stepmother being arrested together with Rosemary. She was so angry with Rosemary for slandering her. Her husband encouraged her to press charges against Rosemary.Even though she was reluctant, she decided to press charges. Her husband went with her to the police station before he went to work. Chief Smith was waiting for them in his office. Mr Cole met with them at the police station.Abigail looked at Chief Smith and said, "I want to press charges against Miss Rosemary Gable for malicious intent. She knowingly made a false statement against me in front of my father.As a resu
Rosemary was annoyed but she didn't utter a word. Mrs Gates was fuming, it was clear to her that Rosemary had taken them for a ride. However, it was too late to regret, that the damage was already done.Mr Gates' heart was bleeding; he was reminded of his daughter's words when she asked him why he believed Mrs Johnson but not her.When he thought about the slaps he felt suffocated. There was sorrow in his eyes. He really let down his late wife.Mrs Gates looked at her husband and said, "Dear, we have to go to Abigail's company and ask for forgiveness. We have wronged her. We can shift all the blame to Miss Gable and tell her that we were misled by her."Her husband shook his head and said, "I think it is too late, my love. I don't think she will ever forgive me. You didn't see the hatred in her eyes.Also, we have already cut off all ties with her. Let's go back home after tomorrow and forget about her." He was disappointed in himself.The following day, Mr Johnson called Mr Anthony to
When Theodore saw Aunt Abigail's scandal on social media, he was beyond shocked. He quickly called his uncle and said, "Uncle Timothy, have you seen what is written on social media about Aunt Abigail?"Uncle Timothy replied, "Yes, Rosemary fetched Abigail's father to teach her a lesson. Also, she arranged for the reporters to interview her stepmother." Theodore was dumbfounded and asked, "How did she find out about their existence?"Uncle Timothy smiled and replied, "Rosemary investigated Abigail through my friend, Rich. I allowed him to provide information to Rosemary because I wanted to see what she would do with it.Now, it is time for her to face the consequences. I want to see how Emmanuel will protect his wife, Abigail, first before I make my move." Theodore was so shocked, Rosemary was ruthless but he was relieved to hear his uncle's words. "Uncle Timothy, in honestly speaking, I don't have any faith in Mr Johnson. He is too soft-hearted."Uncle Timothy laughed and replied, "Th
