Chapter 11 “ Are you sure?” Vanessa asked helplessly and He Nodded his head. She sighed and supported her head with her palm. “ I hope so” ------7:05pm, Mara opened her eyes, she rolled on the bed and yawned. “ Mummy” She called sitting upright on the bed. “ Where’s Mummy? This isn’t our home. Mara came down from the bed , she wanted to go out of the room but the door handle was too high for her. “ Mummy!” She banged the door with her little fist “ Mummy!!” She screamed. “ Open the door!” Alfred who was working on some papers in the sitting room heard the sound, at first he wondered who that could be but then he remembered little Mara who was in his room. “ Oh, she’s awake” He said smiling. As he was trying to stand up, His maid came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and a cap, she looked at Alfred with fears Written all over her face. She didn’t know when the Assistant brought Mara in to the house and Amy too wasn’t in the house. “ Sir, did you hear that sound and
“ They found her?” Derek asked Worriedly. “ No Derek, I want to go check” She wiped the tears in her eyes and Derek sighed. “ I’m sorry dear, We’ll find her. But you should eat something before going” he tried to hold her and she moved back. “ No Derek, I have to look for Mara. She’s the only one I got” Vanessa cried. “ I know Vanessa, but…” She interrupted him. “ No Buts, Just go to work” Vanessa said walking out of the house. He felt so pity for her, he wished there was something he could do to bring Mara back to Vanessa. -------------- “ Mummy” Alfred turned around and saw that it came from Mara, he had totally forgotten about Mara’s mum and he felt so bad. “ What have I done?” He said looking at Mara who’s talking in her dream. Mara opened her eyes slowly, she moved her head to the right side of the room where Alfred was and their eyes met. “ Daddy, where’s Mummy?” Mara asked sitting upright, she rolled her eyes with her index Fingers and Yawned. Alfred didn’t
A maid Entered the kitchen holding a mop bucket, She put down the bucket and leaned her back on the door. She looked at Bella Who was toasting the bread and signaled to her, Bella got her message and she Chuckled. She continued what she was doing not wanting to do what the other maid wanted her to do. The maid seeing that Bella won’t do that, Walked closer to where Mara was sitting on the Table. She touched Mara's face Smiling. “ You are so beautiful” She said to Mara and Mara nodded her head. “ Yes I know” She said. The maid giggled, Mara looked so cute as she spoke and also smart. “ Can I ask little Mara a question?” The maid asked and Bella turned around. She signaled to her to stop bug she Looked away. “ Yes, Mara will answer if she know” She took another bite again. “ What are you with the Boss?” She asked. “ He’s my Daddy” Mara answered and Bella dropped the spoon she was holding. “ Your Daddy, you mean the Boss is your Daddy?” The maid asked and Marfa nodded
Chapter 14 “ I’m sorry miss but we will find her” The officer said to her. Derek knelt beside her as she cried her heart out. After some minutes, they left the station. “ Something doesn’t seem right” Derek said and Vanessa turned to him. She sniffed and nodded her head “ Yes” She said and he paused. “ Vanessa, don’t you think Mara followed someone?” He asked and Vanessa Chuckled. “ Who? She don’t even know anyone” She said and continued walking. “ Didn’t you see anything odd when you went out of the house to look for Vanessa yesterday?” Derek asked and Vanessa Paused. She did saw a car the previous day and it was a familiar car but she paid no attention to it. “ Yes I saw a car that looks familiar” She said. “ Who do you think owns the car?” Derek asked and Vanessa’s eyes opened widely. “ The Billionaire she Called her Daddy!

Chapter 15 “ You this little……” Alfred interrupted him. “ Enough! Stop Bullying the little Kid” The Assistant jaw dropped, He never thought Alfred would shun him that way because of that little Devil. “ You heard my Daddy, Stop bullying me” Mara added. The Assistant sat properly, he didn’t utter a word again because he was pained that Mara was beginning to enter in to their lives. “ I don’t like this girl” He murmured under his breath.Few Minutes later, they arrived at the Hospital. It was a very Big one, The Assistant Quickly came out of the car and opened the Door for Alfred. Alfred Came out, he beckoned on him to carry Mara inside the Hospital. The Assistant wasn’t happy about carrying Mara “ She can walk” He said in such a way that Alfred wouldn’t hear him. “ Just carry me” Mara commanded and he but his upper lip Angrily. “ I’ll only carry you because the Boss said that” He said Carrying her up. “ Yes and you have no choice” Mara Smiled. As Soon as Alfre
“ How?” He asked and the Assistant shook his head. “ Go Tell her I’m not at Home, Tell her I’m in a meeting” He said and the Assistant left the room Hurriedly. “ What does she want now, why is she here? Oh My God” He looked at Mara again and shook his head. “ I don’t want Grandma to see her now, she will freak out and spoil my plan” Alfred supported his head with his palm. --------An old woman who was at the age of 70 was pacing around the sitting room impatiently when The Assistant returned. Bella and the other maid stood a little far away from them and the both of them looked so Tensed. Whenever Grandma visited the house, none of them misbehaves because she was a Very strict Woman. She Always find fault in whatever they do and none of them dared to complain. Grandma stopped at a Glass table situated beside the large sofa and ran her fingers on it. She looked at the maids and showed them her fingers. “ What is this?” She asked but none of them see anything. “ I’m talkin
As the Assistant drove inside the estate, he saw Vanessa and Derek entering in to the house. Vanessa didn’t looked well even from Afar , She was supported by Derek as they Entered the house. “ Oh poor you, I know you missed your daughter. I just wish there’s something I can do to bring back that child here. She’s a bunch of trouble and I know she will make The Boss fire me if I’m not careful with her” He made a fist and bit his upper lip. He saw them closed the door behind him and he shook his head. “ But what took the Boss to the hospital with Mara? Something isn’t right, I’ll make sure I’m always with him incase the Doctor call or show up. I must find out whatever it is” He Started the car and drove out of the Estate.--------As soon as the Assistant left, Derek ran out of the house with Vanessa. They looked around but didn’t see any car in sight again. “ I saw it” Vanessa said pointing to where the car was parked before. “ Are you sure it was the car that you saw?”
“ Go back to that Estate and bring Mara’s Mum here” Alfred said to his Assistant 2 hours later. The Assistant wasn’t happy with all that was happening, he wished he hadn’t forced Alfred to come back for his niece’s birthday. “ And make sure you don’t return without her” Alfred warned. The Assistant left the house, he blamed himself for everything. He arrived at the Estate and knocked on the door but Got no response. He knocked and knocked until his hands started aching. “ Oh well, there aren’t at home. They may probably be out there looking for Mara” He sighed and sat down on the steps. “ What should I tell the Boss? He warned me not to return without her” He supported his chin with his palm and shook his head. “ I’ll wait for them. But what if she returns and get me arrested for taking her kid? No no, that won’t happen. The president of GI conglomerate is my Boss so, I’m safe” He smiled but Sighed again. “ The Boss isn’t trying to Marry her right? I hope he’s not.
“ Let’s live in the same house with Everyone, with Aunt Mandy, Little Daddy and Grandma. I want to stay with everyone” She Said happily. “ Okay then, let’s do that” Vanessa said to Alfred. “ That’s Good, I like that too. But are you sure you can stay in a family house?” He asked and she laughed softly. “ Of course I Can” She said and he smiled. “ I can’t believe this is happening, it’s just like a dream. Vanessa, I can’t thank you enough” ----- The Day finally came, The Day of Vanessa and Alfred’s wedding. It was such a beautiful sight to behold. Everywhere was so beautiful, decorated in Colorful Flowers.

In her hands was a beautiful pure white Bouquet with Crystal beads decorated on them. She was Sitting in the waiting room when Mary came in, Mary And Abby and Bella whe
“ Wow! Really? And you didn’t tell me” Jonah rolled his eyes. “ She told me earlier when I visited her in the hospital” Alfred defended himself. “ Wow! Vanessa and Alfred are finally getting married. I’m so happy for you girlfriend” Derek hugged Vanessa but Alfred pushed him away. “ Don’t hug her again” He said and they all laughed. “ Alfred is already getting jealous” Mandy teased. “ I’m Jealous” They all turned to Jonah “ You missed. Your chance and I found your brother” Vanessa stuck out her tongue at him and they all laughed. “ Yes I missed my chance and I’ll never repeat that again.” He promised. “ Then you should live back the girl who is in love with you” Alfred said and he sighed. “ If only I could find a girl that likes me, I’ll Marry her” He said sadly. “ Of course there is” Alfred said smiling. “ Who?” Jonah asked. “ Bella of course, I told you already” He said and turned to Vanessa. “ I’ll Come back tomorrow, we’ll be getting Mandy’s things move to my house today” He
“ See.. our parents are gone and so are yours but yours is different because your Daddy is still alive” He reminded her. “ But it’s just like he’s gone. I’ll never see him again for the rest of my life, Grandma Warned us not to go anywhere closer to that prison” She cried. Alfred hugged her and patted her back softly. “ Mandy, look around you. Your love ones are here with you” He said and she lifted up her head. “ But they all left, they would have stayed when I wanted them to if only Dad was here” She cried. “ No not them, I mean us. You have grandma, you have me, you have Jonah and there’s Also Vanessa and Mara” “ Did Grandma approved of Vanessa and Mara?” She asked and Alfred smiled. “ Yes, you are the first person to know about this” He said and Mandy sighed. “ Lucky you, you now have someone to live happy with for the rest of your life. But look at me, I’m all alone” She sniffed. “ No girl, don’t say that again. Have you forgotten there’s someone else apart from us?” He asked.
“ I’m Ready to get Marry” He said and she smiled. “ Wonderful! That’s My Favorite grandchild” She said and Alfred Chuckled. “ I’m Not your favorite Grandchild. Where’s Mandy?” He asked. “ She’s Angry with me and has refused to come visit me” She sighed. “ Anyways, let’s talk about your marriage. I’ve find you a girl to marry, don’t worry, she’s a Good girl” Grandma said smiling. “ A girl? But I’ve already found who I want to marry” He said and she shook her head. “ Alfred , don’t tell me you still hand around that Girl” She said and he nodded his head. “ Yes, she’s the mother of my Child. Grandma please allow me to marry Vanessa or I go away from this City and never returns” He said. “ You can go wherever you want to go I don’t care. All I know is you must marry the girl I found for you” She said and he sighed. “ Tell me who the girl is” Alfred said and her face brightened up. “ I found her from the WENDY’S. What’s her name again?” She thought. “ Don’t tell me” Alfred said surpris
“ Vanessa, The Boss is here” Vanessa came out of her room with a swollen eyes. She has been crying for three days non stop. “ What do you want?” She asked him and he Stepped forward. “ No stay there, Don’t move a step closer” She said to him and Alfred Stopped. “ Vanessa, I know what you are going through right now. Please, forgive me, Forgive my family for what we did to you” Alfred apologized. “ Tell me, what did my mum did to them?” She asked and Alfred Shook his head. “ I’m Sorry Vanessa” He Apologized. “ Just tell me” “ My Uncles said they found your mum trying to run into a moving truck. They saved her and she told them she wanted to kill herself because she was tired of this world, she said the man that promised to marry her ran away after you were born. She was hopeless, Her parents had Disowned her and that was when they used her against my Parents” He explained sadly. “ Wait, if I understand you correctly. You mean your Uncles staged your parents Accident using my Mum. Lik
Alfred and Jonah visited their Uncles in prison, they were taken to a room to speak with them. Alfred Forced Jonah there if not, Jonah didn’t want to go. He didn’t want to see the faces of the murderers but Alfred told him there was something he wanted to hear from them. “ Alfred, please Help us seek for Mum’s forgiveness. We regret what we did to your parents, Please forgive us” Mandy’s Dad pleaded. “ You want us to forgive you after all that? No way” Jonah said “ Jonah, please calm down” Alfred tapped his shoulder. “ There’s nothing I can do for you, I didn’t come here to listen to your pleas. There’s something I want to hear from you” Alfred said and Jonah Smiled. He like that spirit. “ What is it? Ask and we will tell you everything. There’s No need hiding anything from you again” One of the uncle’s said. “ It’s About my Assistant” He said and Jonah looked at him. “ What did he do?” He asked but Before Alfred could say anything to him, The Uncle took over. “ Your Assistant is
“ She saw the cops Taking them away and she asked me why. You know Vanessa was an orphan right?” He asked and Jonah Nodded his head. “ Yes” He said. “ Vanessa isn’t an orphan. I investigated for her parents too and found out her Mum’s death is connected to my parents death” He Said pitifully. “ Oh No, Did you tell her?” He asked and Alfred nodded his head. “ Yes, I made a very big mistake”. “ You did what you ought to do. She will find out someday about this even if you didn’t tell her” Jonah told him and he sighed. “ Do you think Vanessa would want to be with me After this?” He asked and Jonah Smiled. “ She will” He patted him on the arm. ----The next day, Vanessa and Derek left the house in search of Vanessa’s Father. Derek Carried Mara on his arm as the walked out of the estate to find a Taxi. As soon as they stepped out of the estate, They found a taxi and Derek gave him the Address. He sat in the front while Vanessa and Mara sat at the back. Derek tried to engage Vanessa in a
You were so jealous of him and his wife that you killed the both of them. How dare you! You should have at least tell me you need the Company instead of killing him. Did you manage to get the company after that? No! His first son took over. You all are a shame to me and this family!” Grandma said in tears. “ Mum please forgive us” The eldest of them begged. “ Keep shut! I don’t want to hear your voices” She turned to the cops who were already waiting for her order. “ Take them away, Do not Release them. They must rot in jail. From now on, their names are erased from my Family, I disown them!” She said In Anger and the cops handcuffed them. “ Grandma please, please Forgive them” Mandy and the rest of the family except Alfred and Jonah pleaded. They were all crying to see their Dads and husbands taking away by the cops. “ Please Grandma” Mandy cried. As the cops were taking them out of the emergency room, Vanessa bumped in to them. She was so confused to see so many people in the ro

That’s what I’m scared of” Derek was so worried. “ I don’t care, all I know is I love Alfred and I’m going to his house to tell him the truth. Jonah’s return is what gives me the confidence” She opened the closet and brought out a set of clothes. “ This will do right?” She asked him smiling. “ Yes Mummy, you’ll look so good in it” Mara said Happily. Mara has been so happy ever since she heard Vanessa telling Derek that she was going to confess her love to Alfred that morning. She was so glad her Mum and Dad would be back together again like before when she was the happiest Girl ever.. “ You Two Should go out of the room, I want to dress” She said pointing to the door. “ Okay Mummy” Mara said and r
