"Veronica," Diana said as she hugged me. I knew that she must have known how bad I must have felt about everything.

"Look at my daughter, finally you are going to become a bride, it was very thoughtful for you to spend your last moments of being single here with us," My Dad said.

"Dear, don't cry, come on," My Dad said. I knew that he was just being too insensitive and felt very annoyed.

"Come on dear, your sister prepared a meal for you to eat," My mom said as Diana led me to the chair at the dining table. I knew how good my sister's food tasted and felt a bit relieved.

"You will need to eat to prepare yourself for the long day tomorrow," Diana said as she went into the kitchen to bring the meal to eat...

Jake was in the sitting room in his apartment, thinking about tomorrow's event and feeling bad. He knew that even though he had told Henry about fighting for me, it would look stupid because there was no way that he would be able to stop the wedding.

    "Oh my goodness!" I muttered to myself. I felt like not minding the fact that it was my birthday and hugging Jake where he sat and telling him that it would be okay and that I still loved him. Jake kept staring at me in my wedding dress. It was as if he was the one that wanted to get married to me, but feel within I knew that he was the one that owned me. "Ooh dear, look at how beautiful you look," Lincoln said coming to me with his men following him behind. "Was this all necessary, having men stalk my movements just a day before the wedding?" I blurted out. "Shh, don't let them hear you, remember our deal," Lincoln warned. "Dies such a deal involves you stalking me because I didn't remember it as part of the deal, especially before the wedding," I said. "Calm yourself down, they mustn't suspect a thing," Lincoln said. "I don't care, this wasn't what we agreed," I argued. "Well, you are now my property, whether you like it or not, I own you and th

    My gaze met my Dad again and I could see his cold stare. It was as if he was going to stand up where he sat and yelled at me, but I knew that he was holding himself up together. I looked at his side and saw my Mom holding his hands, then I understood what happened. I looked up to see Viola just entering the wedding, I knew that she was never meant to be late. Afterwards, Thomas entered, with some men and he held his walking stick which had a golden lion head image at the head of it. When Thomas sat down I could feel how he felt as he waited with the others to hear my reply. I knew that he wasn't in support of his son, because he clenched his grip on his walking stick. Jake's eyes were already getting reddened and I knew that he was getting more hurt because of the situation. "Listen to me, if it's because of the lover boy that you are still holding back, remember that I can kill his father, Henry," Lincoln whispered into my ears. I knew that he didn't want the priest to hear ou

    Jake entered his apartment with a moody sad face. He couldn't even see Howdy until he returned and saw him sleeping on the couch. He knew that it was definitely because Howdy did an overnight reading, especially now that he had returned to school thanks to Jake. Jake controlled his feelings and carried Howdy, with his strength to his room. Henry then came in and Jake began to cry uncontrollably and Henry hugged him. "I understand how you feel, I am sorry, I saw what happened, I was there," Henry said. "It was so painful dad, it hurts, seeing the one you love getting married to someone else," Jake blurted out in pain. He was deeply hurt. Jake knew that it could have been possible for his Dad to be there since his Dad was fond of ghosting himself at an event not allowing one to know that he was present unless he wanted to be seen. "I get the feeling, trust me, I understand how you feel," Henry said hugging Jake tighter. "I am going to find a way no matter wh

    "Jake," I said feeling weak emotionally. I couldn't imagine what he would have gone through all this while and I could understand everything he would have gone through. "Veronica," He said almost stammering. It was like we were meeting each other once again. I remembered how we first met when I saw him so handsome and sexy at my company when Viola introduced him to me as my new worker and playboy. The elevator was going up now with speed towards where my office was and Jake stopped the elevator. "Jake," I said again. I could feel that amongst all other negative emotions he felt, anger would be part of it. "You should have waited for me, you should have told me this before agreeing to marry that lunatic," Jake said. "Dear, I am so sorry, I had no other choice, he threatened your Dad, and I couldn't bear the thought of being the reason of the death of your Dad," I said. I was already shedding tears now. "Still, you would have told me, that was the Maina reasons w

    My Dad remained stunned where he stood facing my Mom. "What exactly are you talking about?" My Dad said. "Mom calm down," Diana said knowing when my Mom was angry and that her anger couldn't be controlled. "I told you, I didn't do anything wrong," My Dad said and brought out dollar notes that he was given by Lincoln and was counting and beaming with smiles. "Drop that down!" My Mom said hitting the dollar notes from his hands and making them to fall on the ground. "What is wrong with you, those are the money that Veronica's new husband, Lincoln gave, it's like bride price, consider it that way, only that it's a top that's seven hundred dollars," My Dad said My Mom became furious even though Diana was trying to calm her down. "Calm down mom," She pleaded. "No I am not going to calm down, he is going to explain to me why he had to force his daughter to get married to who she doesn't wants," My Mom said. "Ooh so that's what this is all about, I told you before,

    "What the hell do you want from me again? Why are you at my office?" I blurted out in anger. "Point of correction, it's also my office, everything here is mine, they all belong to me," Lincoln said. I felt like throwing the glass ugh that was on my table at him in anger but I knew that I had to bottle it all in. "I just came to check on you especially the fact that you just left the house that early without eating breakfast," Lincoln said. I felt stunned that such a man would show unnecessary concern for me, but of course, since I was his new wife, he had no other choice. "As you can see, I did what you wanted," I said facing him with a look of disdain. "I know, of course, you had no other choice," He said giving out his evil smile. "Of course, I had every choice, I could have fled from you with Jake and his Dad, but I couldn't leave my family," I said. "Come on, quit being silly, after all, I was fair enough, Jake still got to remain working in the c

    "Hey, Jake, I understand how you feel, I was just coming from Veronica's office, and she explained to me that it was because her Dad threatened that Paul who had squandered the company would return to squander more," Viola said. Jake was stunned. He couldn't believe that Veronica would say such a thing to Viola. "You mean she said those things to you?" Jake enquired curiously. "Ooh yes, you know that she was even ready to leave all her company just to be with you, but she couldn't allow Paul to ruin it again and that was what happened, she beer meant to marry Lincoln, but she had no other choice," Viola said. Jake now understood what happened that I had to lie to secure others and he was mature enough to know that he had to do the same also. "Ooh yeah, that was probably what happened, although I understood what happened, yet am still deeply hurt, she was to be my mistress and U was to be her playboy then I fell deeply in love with her and now my heart is broken,"

Thomas knew that he had been close with the Hargreaves and had considered bit I and my sister as his daughters. "Yes, it's me," Diana said. Diana wasn't happy at all and even though she tried to hide it from Thomas even though she didn't want to, she couldn't. "Have your seat," Thomas said understanding the main reason why she was there. "So I am not happy with what's going on, " Diana said as she sat on one of the lounges in the lounge room. "I mean, you are the Chairman, isn't there any way that you could try and maybe fire him temporarily since that might make him come back to his senses," Diana said facing Thomas. "Honestly, l also told this same thing to Veronica, I couldn't because he was able to find a way to put everything into his name, he deceived me into signing a normal document for a company deal as the chairman of the company, and neither did I knew

"Yes, thanks my daughter, am so glad, I would appreciate it if you do, even my closest friends I didn't tell about you, that's how sober I was to be sorry for what I did in the past, but now I would be so excited to introduce you to them as my lost daughter and the firstborn," Thomas said.
