He couldn't. Let go of her lips, his hand running through her exposed lap. They fell slowly on the bed without letting go of each other's lips. He tried to remove her dress when she held his hand. "I can't do this. I am sorry" She takes a little distance from him. "Sapphire, this is our best moment you shouldn't have ruined it. I understand. Think about what we discussed earlier. I will be in my room if you change your mind" He stood up. "Quicney, are you angry with me? Sex is not what makes a relationship stronger. I deny you sex today doesn't mean I won't give you tomorrow. You shouldn't be angry simply because I didn't allow you to touch me. You don't expect me to have sex with you when I am passing through a lot. I just lost my aunt and you don't expect me to be intimate with you" She bowed her head. "Sapphire, I am not angry with you. I am sorry if the way I speak to you earlier hurt you. I love you so much" he sat down closer to her. "I think you should go ahead with your p
Quicney asked his guards to get every necessary information about Eddie Wayne. About where he lives, what he does with his time, and places he always be. He didn't bother to know where Henrietta lives when they were still close. He also asks them to know the exact hospital Henrietta is for he to pay her a visit when he starts with his plans. "Sir, we were able to get where he lives and where he works. He is very secretive and smart too. These days he often is at the hospital where his daughter is. These are the images of him as you requested. I will get all you need as soon as possible " he handed over a file to him. "He doesn't have a close friend or a lover. Like someone close to him but not his daughter. I want to know him more than this " He kept the file on the table. "Sir, I will surely find that but right now he walks alone without his guards. As I said earlier, he is always in the hospital to see his daughter " he said. "As for his daughter, I hope you know her ward number
He look around, he was lucky to find a doctor's dress. He wore the dress and stood beside her. The door flings opened and Eddie Wayne walked in. "Good afternoon, sir" Quicney greeted. "Who are you? " He furrowed his brows. "I am the new doctor assigned to take care of her. Dr Elliot is busy and he asked me to check up on her" he said under his nose mask. "Oh! How is she? " Eddie Wayne asked. "She is fine. She is responding to treatment "Quincey said. Eddie Wayne stares at him for a while. "I will be in my office if you notice any suspicious movement from her" he hurried out. He take in a deep moment breath and walked to the restroom to remove the doctor's clothes. "I am smarter than you, Eddie Wayne " He smiles and stares at the mirror in the restroom before walking out. He got into his car and they drove off roughly. He got home some minutes later. Sapphire rushed to embrace him immediately she notice his presence. She kissed him for a while. "How did it go? Were you able to
"What? " she gashed. "You heard me right. I can't afford to keep someone who doesn't help me positively" he runs his hand through his hair. "Eddie Wayne, it breaks my heart when you speak to me like that. I wasted all my life with you. I had covered up all your evil deeds and you are speaking to me this way" Tears roll down her cheek and she wiped it off. "You can't hold me down with your tears. I give you a week nothing more. If you love your life so much, you will take what I give to you seriously" he pushed her out of his way and she fell on the floor. "I regret every decision I made in the past. I would have been with my loving family" she cried slowly. She stood up and cleaned up her dress. "I will get rid of you first before you would even think of getting rid of me," she thought and smiles. Sapphire and Quicney stop talking to each other for days because of their last misunderstanding. It wasn't easy for Quicney and Sapphire is not left out. He tried to talk to her but sh
Days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months. Quicney visits Henrietta as usual but spends more time than he usually does. Henrietta move her fingers a little bit and raise her index finger. She blinks her eye which she didn't open immediately because of the reflection of the light in the room. She finally open her eyes and look around. Her headache. Quicney was with her but he rest his head on Henrietta's bed. When Henrietta woke up, he didn't notice. "Quicney! " she managed to speak out because she is weak. Quicney raised his head when he heard her call his name. He stood up quickly and walk up to her. He squeezed her fingers and kissed her on her forehead. "Thank God you are awake. I have been praying so hard for this day to come. It is finally here" He smiles. "Quicney, how long have you been waiting for me? You never love me but her. I wasn't expecting you by my side but my dad" she said. "That's not important. What is more important is that I am here for you. After you were
Quicney went home after spending some time with Henrietta. When he arrived, sapphire was fast asleep. He sat down close to her face and kissed her on her lips. She stretched her body and open her eyes. "Good evening, babe. What took you so long? I had been waiting for you all day "She rest her head on his shoulder. "I am so sorry for keeping you waiting," he said. "How was your day? " she asked. "It was fine. Henrietta woke up and I was with her all through the day. I had convinced her to be my girl which she accept" he said. "I know it will be easy for you to convince her. Did you meet with her dad?" She asked. "No. I left immediately I convince her to be my girl. I plan to meet her father when I had got half of what I need to know. I will make her fall helplessly in love with me" he faked his smile. "Quicney, I have been thinking. I would love to visit my father's lawyer. It has been a while since I talk to him. He promised to help me get back what is rightful mine but it is
He was about to inject her when the door flings opened and Quicney walked in. Yoke looked back to see who walked in."What are you doing here? "Quincey asked. He grabbed Yoke's arms and throw him away. The syringe fell off Yoke's hand as a result of what he got from Quicney. He got up immediately and pushed Quicney on his left cheek which made him step back a little bit. Quicney punched him back. They fought for about five minutes before Yoke found his way out of the room and Quicney ran after him. Before he could get to the entrance of the hospital, Yoke drove off. "Fuck! " he tapped his feet on the floor angrily.He touched his cheeks before he went back to Henrietta's room. Henrietta was fast asleep when the scene happen. "I am not doing this because I love you but for Sapphire. Who is that guy? " he thought before leaving her ward. He got home some minutes later. "Hi! Babe" he said immediately as he walks into Sapphire's room. "Quicney, I had been worried about you. Did you ge
"What is happening to me? " she thought. "Ma'am, didn't he inform you before leaving the country? " she said. "I don't get you. You mean he is no longer in this country" she said. "Yes, he left three years ago. He is currently living in the united states. Please come in" she said and walks in. "I had been to his office, I got the same answer. I never knew things had gotten this far. I need to speak with him because it is very important " She sat down. "Do you care for a cup of coffee? " she asked. "Yes," she said. The woman gave her a cup of coffee. "Thank you," she said. "Do you always have that on your face? " she chuckles. "No, but I love it. Can you please tell me about Barr Hilton's whereabouts? That is what matters to me now" she said. "I know. You don't have to cover your face. I need to see your face so I can reveal some important things you need to know. You don't have to cover up your face" the woman said. "How is that possible? We haven't met before "She furrowe
