They all laughed as Adam cracked a joke. Anthony was laughing hard also. "This is too funny, I felt the lady should just forget about it because she won't get it back." Anthony said and they laughed again. "Yes, gosh I don't want to be in her shoes." Sonia said, Nancy screamed all of a sudden, they turned only to see her standing by the door with a grumpy expression on. "What happened?." Adam asked. "You were having a conversation without me, that is not fair." She said with a sad pout, Sonia, Anthony, Andrew and Adam exchanged glances and bursted into laughter. Nancy became confused. "What makes you all laugh at the same time, I am going home." She yelled. "Your expression was very funny, since you want to go home then let's go. We will come back to visit Adam." Anthony said. I want to go home only because I sting, then I will stay with Adam all day." "No you have to go to school first and not stay here all day. I will be fine, trust me on that." Adam replied with a pout, Nan
The children exchange glances as their parents appear before them.Just then the waiters started bringing in their orders. Anthony stood up abruptly."Dad and Mum, we need to have a real talk right here right now." He informed."No, not in my presence, I know you will do this one day but I won't accept." Andrew decided against it immediately."Please be patient, we are in the public." Anthony cautioned, Andrew shot his parents with glares and walked right in their middle, they almost fell."I am sorry Mum and Dad, I will speak to him, but I will be living in my own house with Sonia from now till whenever I change my mind." Anthony apologized to them, he faced Sonia and Nancy."Let's go now, I need to get you your chocolate and yogurt." Anthony added and walked away, Sonia and Nancy followed."This is too much for me to bear, they walked out on us. Are they really the children I gave birth to? How I wish I could time travel back to correct my errors, I failed as a mother." She cried."
Anthony sat on one of the seats at the dining table, he had a knife in his hand. He pierced the knife into the apples before him. His thoughts were all on what happened earlier. "I don't think she will be able to forgive me, I know for sure that she won't come to my house again. I need to check on Adam." He thought and stood up, his left hand picked his phone and the briefcase beside it. Anthony walked towards the door, as he was about to step outside, Sonia called. "Sir Anthony, where are you going?." She asked breathing heavily, Anthony turned and saw her bringing down a big traveling bag. "I was about to go out, I thought you won't be coming with me after what happened the other time." Anthony explained. "Okay." She replied in a sad note. "Why can't he apologize after knowing fully well that I was very angry at what he did." She scoffed inwardly. Anthony quickly ran upstairs and helped her with the bag. "Thank you sir." She appreciated it,they both got into the car and th
Sonia and Anthony came down from the car, she was shocked and speechless as her eyes met with the beautiful and magnificent building before her. "This building is more beautiful than my house. Wow, this is fantastic. I wonder how this interior will be." She thought as she fixed her eyes on the building. "Did you like it?." He asked trailing eyes. "I not only like it, I love it. I thought that house is the only place you own together with your family, but when you told me I will go with you to your house, I was surprised, I was shocked when I got here." She stated, Anthony smiled. "I built this house for a day like this, only my family members know about this house." "Wow, how did you maintain this house without coming here, at least everywhere should be dirty by now." She said, looking at the floor. "You are right, I abandoned this house by not coming here but there are workers who guard, keep and clean this house while I am away." He explained. "Oh, how did..." "No more quest
Moringa was still making fun of her mother but the ringing tone from her phone distracted her. She brought the phone a little bit closer to eyes, shocked gripped her when she saw the caller ID. She robbed her eyes a thousand times to be sure of what she was seeing. "This is unbelievable, Andrew can't be calling me now, he has never talked to me talkless of calling me. What could have made him call me after a lot of years?." She thought with a smirk on her face, then she started taking steps forward. "Maybe something must have happened, should I pick or not." She contemplated and looked at the scene. The call wasn't there anymore, it ended as she didn't pick during the time frame. "I think that answers my question." She muttered and walked faster. Andrew ran his fingers through his hair in anger, he threw the phone on the bed and slumped on the chair. "Why is she not picking my calls? I really need her to get back at Anthony for me." He muttered and laid on the bed. He sat up when
Sonia was marveled at seeing her room, it was very beautiful and clean, there were no signs of dust. The bodyguards dropped her luggages, the maids took over from there as they dragged the traveling bag towards the wardrobe. Sonia was still looking around. It felt as if someone was living there or someone lived in that room before. She turned to one of the maids and asked. "Was anybody living here before?...I meant this room." She asked in a cool voice. "I am sorry Ma'am, I can't disclose the information to you." The maid refused with a plea, Sonia narrowed her eyes at her. "Alright, you can continue unpacking." She said and sat on the bed thinking about what the maid said. "Something must have happened. But what is that?. No, I shouldn't be thinking about that now because it is none of my business, he only did me a favor by bringing me here." She thought and kept an eye on the maids as they were arranging her things. After a few minutes, they were done..."We are through with
Sonia stood at the front of the mirror as she packed her hair and pinned it severally to prevent it from scattering or falling off.Anthony badged in with a little bit of an angry look on his face."Aren't you done? I have been waiting for 5 minutes now." Anthony complained, his eyes landed on the mirror and saw the reflection of Sonia."She is getting more beautiful as the day goes by." He complimented inwardly."I am very sorry, well I am done now let's go have our breakfast." She replied with a tiny voice."You are a gusto, I never believed you could eat that much and you didn't add weight." He teased her."You don't have to tease me that hard, anyways, I don't know why I am craving for food and sleep nowadays. Anyways, we will figure it out at the hospital and I never wish to add weight" She said in a worried tone. "You don't have to worry about anything, I was just pulling your legs." He said with a wink and dragged her out by the arm."You don't have to do that, you know." She
Lily rushed out of the bathroom, she quickly put on the cloth she selected, applied a little make up, packed everything she needed and ran out.Ryan sent her the address of the hospital Adam was in, so she decided to go to him very early in the morning and it seems the plan won't work out as she woke up very late.She rushed down the stairs and saw her parents sitting on the sofa, she walked up to them and greeted them."Good morning Mum and Dad." She greeted."Good morning baby." Her Mum replied and hugged her, while her Dad pecked her forehead."Thank God you are finally here, we have been waiting for you, let's go." Mr Thompson said with a smile."Sorry Dad, I have to rush to school, I have a pending assignment, bye." She rushed the words and hurried to the door.Mr and Mrs Thompson exchanged glances... "Liliana, stop right there." Mr Thompson stopped her, she stood still and turned.Liliana is her full name but she loves to be called Lily.The both of them stood up and walked towa
Ten years later. Sonia's pov I sat on the dressing chair, I stared into the mirror with a beam of smile. A lot of things have happened during the last few years. I would like to start with Nancy, she graduated from college a few years ago with a lot of honors and awards. There is no doubt that she is intelligent and brilliant. She is correctly the richest business woman in Switzerland, she would be the only young lady to attain that position. Everybody became proud of her. Adam and Andrew also graduated from the college, they established themselves without their father's money. Andrew got married three years ago and fathered a beautiful girl. Adam got married to Lily immediately they graduated from college, the preparation was in a rush but it was fun. They are blessed with twins and a boy. Mike was released from jail a week after our wedding because my father said so, sincerely speaking I didn't want him to be freed yet but I had to respect my dad's decision. He apologized for e
Grace raised her head and looked at them, she laughed at her stupid thought. "Amanda has her own life to live and I also have mine. She left me here without caring or trying to get me out of here." She thought again and faced Sonia. "I am going to accept this deal but make sure I get my money immediately when the work is done." "Don't worry everything is ready, you will get your money immediately you call her there." Sonia assured her with a smile, she knew Grace will accept the deal because Grace is a greedy type. "It is done, but firstly, I need to eat good food. I want you to buy clothes for me but I don't want Amanda to grow suspicious so you will do that later." Grace stated with joy. "That's not a problem, everything will be done as long as you do as we say." Sonia assured her and she nodded. Mr Gilbert smirked secretly at the success. Amanda sat on the sofa with a frown, Rika was beside her and Gladys was on her feet holding her phone with a frown too. "Do you mean the
Sonia and Anthony came out of the car as the door was widely opened by the security men. He walked to where Sonia was and grabbed her hand. The workers greeted them as they walked in.They got to the elevator and Anthony pressed down the button, Sonia went in first, then he followed."I think this is the right time to tell her." He thought and faced her."Babe, do you know where Lamarded Hospital is located at?." He asked, Sonia tilted her neck."Yes I do, how did you know the name of the hospital?." "I came across a doctor yesterday, then he told me about somethings which I would like to check out today before we go back." Anthony explained with a nervous smile. He prayed inwardly as he await her response."That's not a problem then, the driver will take you there, please don't take too long so that we can go faster." Sonia said and the door of the elevator opened. They both walked out and headed to her office.Anthony's driver parked the car properly in the hospital's garage. He ca
Sound of footsteps could be heard as Mr Gilbert descended down the stair case. He just left Andrew's room.His face wore a deep frown as what Andrew told him kept ringing in his memory."No that's not possible, I can't tell Sofia about what I do outside the country and I can't leave the family's business or else I and my family will suffer for it. She will surely get mad at me for hiding it from her for a very long time. What do I do now?." He thought.After climbing the stairs he found his way to the living room. He brought out his phone and was about to dial a number when a call came through. A short smile appeared on his face when he saw the caller ID."Thank God, he called at the right time." He said and sighed, then picked the call and placed the phone closer to his ear."Hi Dad, how are you doing?." Anthony asked."I'm fine son, how is everything over there? I hope you are getting familiar to that place?." Mr Gilbert asked in a low voice."Yes Dad, what happened? You sound reall
Anthony wiped off his face with his palm hoping he was seeing something else."Is he truly the one? I am sure he isn't the one. Everybody said he was dead maybe I saw another person who I mistaken as him." He thought."Who are you?." Mr Robert asked again, that brought Anthony back to reality."Never mind, I think I mistook you for another person, I need to take my leave now." Anthony rushed the words and left.Mr Robert continued looking towards his direction until he was out of sight."I really need to talk to this guy, I'm sure he is not from this country because of his appearance and accent." He thought and sighed.Anthony walked into the restroom and released his pee into the water closet. He washed his hands after he was done. Anthony checked himself in the mirror, then the thought of what happened earlier came to his mind. He rested his two hands on the cabinet and faced the mirror."I need to get this off my mind right now, I don't want Sonia to question me for been moody or
They arrived at the restaurant, Anthony parked the car and stopped the engine. He opened the car and ran to the other side, then he opened the door for Sonia. His face flourishes with smile, as the door opened widely Sonia looked at him and smile. His smile was contagious. He stretched out his right hand to Sonia and used to their hand on his chest. She grabbed his hand and came out gracefully from the car, people around brought out their phones and start capturing them while some commenting. "Wow she is finally back." A lady said, the lady beside her shook her head at that statement. "She is not only back but she is back with a great smile on and a partner. It is very hard to smile again after everything that happened to her but I am happy for her." The lady corrected nicely. "Thank you everyone and I am very happy to be back into this country. Thank you for your support and love, I love you all." Sonia complimented and walked in with Anthony. "They really love you." He said wi
Andrew hugged his mother tightly to himself, it felt as if he would be losing her at any moment. Mrs Gilbert also hugged him tightly.The atmosphere was calm as the two of them cried on each other's shoulders.Adam got out of his car and walked in happily, he met his Dad sitting on the sofa while punching the keyboard of his laptop."Good evening Dad." Adam greeted and walked past him, Mr Gilbert raised up his head furiously and spoke."Where are you coming from by this time of the night? Don't you know everybody is not safe?." He questioned, Adam stopped right on his track and faced his Dad."I went on a date with my girlfriend and don't worry nothing will happen to me." He replied jovially. Mr Gilbert narrowed his eyes at him."You went out with Thompson's daughter?." He asked as he was finding it hard to believe."I know what you are thinking about Dad. Her parents has given me the full opportunity to date her, so she is officially my girlfriend." He explained. Mr Gilbert was still
Hailey opened the door and walked in, Anthony and Sonia were still in their previous positions. They both turned towards the door,Hailey put up a bright smile and moved closer to Anthony. She bent over to his size. "Everything is here Sir." She informed, Anthony jumped out of the sofa immediately and walked out with Hailey. "What's up with those two?." Sonia asked herself after seeing them whispering something into each others ear. He checked everything out and it was perfect. "Thank you so much Hailey, I really appreciate your help." Anthony appreciated her. "Anytime sir." She said and walked away. Anthony arranged the boxes according to their sizes, there were three boxes. One for chocolate, another for cookies and the last one for meatballs. He placed a bucket of ice cream on it then he adjusted the flower properly. He breath in and opened the door. "Surprise see." He screamed, Sonia looked up from her laptop and saw what he brought in. "Wow." She opened her mouth in awe,
Anthony and Sonia walked into the office Hailey had cleaned. Everywhere was neat and clean. Sonia went to sit on her seat and closed her eyes as she remembered that she has once sitted on that seat before. It felt so new. Happiness filled her heart as she remembered what Mike has done. "It feels so good to be back on my seat. The very seat I deserve a lot." She thought and smiled happily. Anthony looked at her and smiled too. "She is very happy and cute. I wish I could keep seeing that smile on her face every minute and every second." He thought. "Wow, she is smiling at an invisible thing." Anthony suddenly said, those words made her jolt off from her thought. "Come on, I am not seeing invisible things. I am smiling because I am very happy to be back into this office. Mike never wanted me to be here again but you helped me. I can't even express how much I appreciate you for what you did for me. Thank you so much baby. Thank you for putting smiles on my face, you are the reason fo
