At 2 pm, at the Anthony Group, Chairman Anthony walked to the boardroom with his son, Mark Anthony, and his assistant, Deon Adams.The board of directors and managers were already there waiting for him. He greeted everyone and told them that it would be a short meeting.Then he said, “The reason I called this meeting is to inform you that I’m going on leave on Monday and my son, Mark, will be acting as CEO until I come back. Please respect him and give him all the support he needs.”Shareholder King was grinning from ear to ear and said, “I will surely give him my full support. I believe we will work well together, young Mr Anthony.”Other board members nodded their heads, and the managers were happy to hear that because young Mr Anthony didn’t have a cold face like his father. Then the meeting adjourned.On Saturday, Mark told his father and his father-in-law that they would be asking Mr Johnson to be the twins’ Godfather. They had no objections because Mr Johnson was a good man.Vic
At the Fish residence in Rustenburg, David Fish received a call from his son-in-law Patrick Lewis, indicating that he was on his way to see them. The last time he saw his son-in-law was after her youngest daughter’s funeral twelve years ago.His wife, Catherine Fish, had asked him several times to apologize to their son-in-law to no avail. She lost her eldest daughter, Olga, because of her husband. Again, she lost her granddaughter Victoria because of her husband.After the funeral, their son-in-law stopped talking to them. He didn’t even invite them to their granddaughter’s engagement banquet. They heard about it from the newspaper. They were so ashamed when their friends congratulated them.Catherine Fish cried sorrowfully and begged her husband to reconcile with their son-in-law, but her husband refused.They were so surprised when they saw Mark and Victoria on The Ark TV, they didn’t even know that their granddaughter was already married, and they were waiting for their twins.She
Mr Fish looked at his son-in-law and said, “Son, I was wrong, but to err is human, to forgive is divine.” Patrick smiled at his father-in-law and replied, “All is forgiven, Dad. Victoria missed you so much.”Mrs Fish was so happy to hear her son-in-law’s words. She looked at him and said, “I was so sad when I saw Victoria and her husband on The Ark TV, you didn’t even invite us to our granddaughter’s wedding.”Patrick smiled and replied, “I’m sorry for not inviting you to her engagement banquet. We haven’t had a big wedding yet because she discovered that she was pregnant, then we postponed the wedding.However, they registered their marriage eight months ago.” His mother-in-law was smiling brightly at her son-in-law and asked, “Is her husband a good man? Is he coming from a good background?”Patrick nodded his head and said, “The Anthony family is treating her as a treasure. My son-in-law, Mark, is a good man, he loves her so dearly. The Anthony family is very wealthy Mom.”Olga was
Shortly Mark arrived at the Anthony mansion, his father was so happy to see them. He hugged his son and kissed his daughter in love and said, “Every time I see you my children you bring joy in my heart. I love you so much.”They were so touched that they hugged him. Mark looked at his father and said, “I love you more Dad, having you in my life is a blessing. Every minute I spend with you I learn new things.”His father smiled brightly at his son and replied, “I thank the Lord every day for blessing me with a son like you and for blessing the Anthony family with a kind-hearted daughter in love like my daughter in love. You are so special to me.”They had tears in their eyes. Then Mark excused himself and took his wife to their bedroom for a nap. He held her in his arms, and shortly Victoria fell asleep. Mark left the bedroom to join his father in the living room.He sat on the sofa, smiled at his father, and asked, “Where is my brother?” His father replied, “he went to visit his mothe
On Sunday morning, Victoria woke up early to prepare breakfast before her father-in-law left to meet the Interior Designer. She made home-made croissants and baked muffins, then she prepared a full English breakfast.Then she cut the fruit into small cubes to make a fruit salad, then she poured a double plain yoghurt and placed it in the fridge.She saw her husband coming into the kitchen. She smiled and said, “good morning my love, did you sleep well?”Mark smiled back at her, then he kissed her and replied, “good morning Sweetheart, I slept well thank you and you?”Victoria told him that she slept well. Then Mark looked at her and said, “If I remember correctly, you were forbidden to enter the kitchen, what are you doing here alone?”Victoria looked down and replied, “When I woke up you were sleeping peacefully, and I was scared to disturb you. My handsome husband, I understand that you are worried that I might hurt myself and I’m sorry that I didn’t wake you up.”Mark took his wife
At the Johnson residence, Mr Johnson was sitting in the living room watching Victoria’s 3D ultrasound scan CD. He was grinning from ear to ear when he saw the twins.His wife approached him and asked, “Hubby, what are you watching?” Her husband smiled broadly and replied, “Mark and Victoria asked me to be their children's Godfather, and then they gave me their 3D ultrasound scan CD to watch.”His wife was so upset and said, “Hubby, do you think it is appropriate for you to watch Victoria’s babies in our house in front of Serene?” Her husband sneered, “your daughter in law doesn’t respect me, do I need to care about her feelings?”Whilst they were talking Serene and James joined them in the living room. Serene wanted to binge watch her favourite TV shows on DStv Catch Up. She was annoyed when she saw her father-in-law watching television.James approached his father and asked, “What are you watching Dad?” His father told him that he was watching Victoria’s 3D ultrasound scan CD. James
At the Anthony residence, Mark and Jonathan were sitting in the garden talking. Mark looked at Jonathan and said, “Brother, please don’t ask my wife to move your mother to a single cell.I don’t want to see my wife being agitated since she is pregnant.” Jonathan was annoyed and replied, “Brother, it’s not my intention to upset my sister-in-law, but my mother’s life is at stake. What if her inmate killed her?”Mark glared at him and replied, “Your mother deserves it. Did your mother think about my wife and my children? Did she think about me and my father? Your mother is heartless.I wish Beauty would beat her up every day, maybe she would turn over a new leaf.” Then he left Jonathan alone in the garden.Jonathan was dumbfounded he didn’t know that his brother hated his mother that much. He promised his mother that he would move her to a single cell, and no one would stop him from talking to his sister-in-law.His father and his father-in-law came back whilst he was talking with Jonath
At that moment, Zion received a call from his deputy indicating that Mrs Anthony had been stabbed. She had been rushed to the Pretoria General Hospital.Zion looked at Jonathan and said, “Brother-in-law, something happened to your mother, I will take you to the hospital to see her.” Then he excused himself and left with Jonathan in a hurry.Jonathan was so scared, he thought Zion was hiding something from him. Maybe his mother was already dead. When they arrived at the hospital, they saw two policemen.They approached the two policemen and Zion asked, “What happened? How is Mrs Anthony?”One of them replied, “Mr White, Mrs Anthony is in the emergency room, she was stabbed by Beauty on both thighs. The inmates told us that Mrs Anthony promised Beauty that she would ask young Mr Anthony to visit her in prison. She was given three days to deliver but she couldn’t, hence the stabbing.”Jonathan was confused. Why did his mother promise to bring his brother to the prison to visit Beauty? It
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 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.

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.

When Mr Gates was busy with his daughter, Abigail, the reporters were interviewing her stepmother, Belinda Gates. Ben, the reporter, was part of them.He approached Mrs Gates with his microphone and asked, "Mrs Gates, you indicated that you arrived in Johannesburg yesterday to see your daughter. Why did you spend the night at the Johnson residence but not with your daughter?"Mrs Gates replied, "What do you think? If it was not for Mrs Johnson who fetched us from Limpopo, we wouldn't know anything about that shameless daughter. Mrs Johnson told us that Abigail was having an affair with her husband, Mr Johnson.My husband and I are so embarrassed. We didn't raise her to be a mistress." Ben, the reporter asked, "Mrs Gates, did you ask your daughter if what Mrs Johnson told you was the truth?"Mrs Gates became upset and replied, "Why would Mrs Johnson lie to us? She snatched Mr Johnson away because he was rich. I believe she is tired of being a cleaner."Ben, the reporter looked at Mrs Ga

When she saw her lovely husband she smiled sweetly at him. Her smile melted Emmanuel's heart. He hugged her tightly and said, "I love you so much and I will never allow anyone to bully you."Abigail looked at him with worried eyes and asked, "What is wrong, my love?" Emmanuel smiled and replied, "I am thinking about the investigation that Rosemary is conducting and I am wondering what she is up to since we are already divorced."Abigail touched her husband's face and said, "Nothing she can do to us and we have nothing to hide. Our consciences are clear."Emmanuel kissed his wife gentle
At the Brady Jewelry, Mr Brady was with his elder son, Jody, who was the Film Director. His father was grinning from ear to ear watching the 'Fairytale Love' video clip and said, "Son, you did a great job filming this commercial.The Anthony couple looked like they were coming straight from the painting.

Emmanuel Johnson was resting in their bedroom with his lovely wife, Abigail, in his arms. Abigail looked at her husband tenderly and said, "My dearest husband, I am sorry that I lied about my parents.My father is still alive but he is dead in my heart. There is no father-daughter relationship between us."Abigail picked up a glass of water and took a sip. There was so much pain in her eyes and said, "After my mother passed away, my father remarried.
