Are they still mothers like this?
~Merina Pov~ I watched in confusion when she yelled out, I blinked once then twice, and decided to just wait. No matter what she brings, I will take it. I folded my arms and watched her smug face then I heard the sound of footsteps and when we turned around, I saw her guards coming up the stairs. I looked at them in suspicion then turned to look at Aunty too and she looked as confused as I am. Madam Nart looked at me then smirked as she held her bag well and pointed at her like she was on some kind of diet, “Throw her out of my son’s house! I don't want to know how much she begs and whatever she says, and she must go out with one single thing. Everything she owns belongs to my son!” She ordered and without waiting for me to recover from my shock, she walked off proudly. I gasped as I watched the guards come closer to me. I moved back but they were faster as they caught my hands. “Hey! Leave me alone! Don't touch me!” I yelled angrily but they wouldn't listen and all I got was a s
~Adams Pov~ I walked out of the shareholder meeting which has been going on for the past 4 hours. I felt so irritated and tired as I hadn't eaten or drunk anything in hours. I frowned when I saw the time on my watch and seeing it was almost midnight, I contemplated if I should stay the night at the office and finish everything, or I should go home to work but looking at the time and remembering the intense meetings I had today, I decided to just stay over and then go home by morning. I slumped down on the chair and looked around for my phone then I realized it was with Adeline, my Assistant. I frowned and punched her number on my office phone and in no time, she picked up the call. “Boss!” His crispy voice rang out. I furrowed my brows, “Where is my phone?” I asked sharply. I remembered I had always told them not to hold my things and they should always be next to me but it seemed she was forgetting the rules I laid. “Huh…Sir, so sorry about that, I will rush toward the office
~Merina Pov~ I walked inside the villa without looking around as it was rude to do that. I followed the butler inside the house and was welcomed by a loud voice that brought a smile to my face. “Little Merina!” His voice sounded energetic for his age but it also seemed normal. I walked closer to him and greeted him with a smile, “Teacher!” I said then he laughed happily. I couldn't help but be amused by him and the depressing thoughts that filled my mind minutes ago disappeared and what was left was warmth. I looked at him with a real smile and not the one I had always put on then bowed in gratefulness. “Thank you for allowing me in, Teacher!” I thanked him and raised my head to reveal my eyes which were filled with gratitude and unshed tears. Minutes ago when I had been thinking of where to go while having dinner in the restaurant, Maestro Wills, who is now my teacher, came in and I suddenly had a wide idea which I thought was good. Though I had just met this old man somehow I c
~Adams Pov~ I rushed into the house of Grandpa Wills after being permitted to come in, my heart began beating so fast in anticipation. I walked in and the first thing I saw was my woman sitting in the dining room next to Grandpa Wills looking at me with eyes filled with surprise. I breathed a sigh of relief immediately I saw her, at least she was fine and hadn't left me. I walked towards her in nervousness, then I greeted Grandpa Wills first before looking at her. “Merina..” I called her name then went silent as I didn't know what else to say. Should I tell her I’m sorry or should I allow her to scold me? At this point, all I could do was look at her speechlessly. We looked at each other for a while and I couldn't take it anymore. “Darn it!” I cussed then took her wrist and dragged her upstairs. I don't know where her room was but I certainly knew she wouldn't be maltreated here and I was right but I don't just know where exactly her room was. I looked at her awkwardly and co
~Adams Pov~ “Do you also think I am here for the money?!” Merina asked coldly. My eyes trembled in shock as I looked at the suddenly cold woman in front of me. I felt so much confusion as I looked at her angry face. “What do you mean by that, Merina?!” I asked after calming down but my eyes pierced at her as I waited for an answer. She looked at me for a period then bit her lips and bent her head, I looked at her head which was lowered and my heart couldn’t help but throb, “Do you think of me like that?” I asked gently, then closed my eyes. I clenched my fist and my eyes narrowed into slits as I thought about why she would suddenly think like that, then I remembered my mother might have said something which made Merina this insecure and angry. I I pressed my lips tiredly and wished I could fly to the family house to deal with my mum. I had managed to win Merina over and make her trust me but in just a day, my mum had destroyed it. Still, I had thought Merina trusted me just
~Merina Pov~ Adams didn't wait till we reached his room before he started kissing me in the elevator. I could feel his desperation. I smiled secretly feeling his love and lust for me and I knew I had successfully shifted his attention. I knew I had hurt him when I saw his reaction after I had said those words. I hadn't meant it but seeing the document of the house with my name on it just triggered my feelings and made me so angry. I felt humiliated for a minute but when he questioned me and said those words, I knew I had wronged him as Adams had been nothing but honest and plain with me right from the start. I had felt sad and anxious seeing him ignore him even when I called him with my soft voice, and in desperation I climbed on top of his lap and kissed him but I didn't know it was going to go this far, and here we are. When he apologized to me saying he had lost control, I felt something break inside me and suddenly I wanted to give myself totally to him. I didn't know what I
~Merina Pov~ I felt something tickling my face which stirred me awake. My eyes were blurry as I looked around in a daze, I felt lost and my mind was blank until I heard his voice— “Good morning, Rina..” His hoarse gentle voice sounded which snapped me out of my daze and my blurry eyes cleared immediately. I looked at his dark deep eyes that seemed to contain only me and remembered what had happened yesterday and how Adams had kept on going without giving me enough time to rest, my face became so red as I covered my face with the blanket. I heard his amused laughter and I felt more embarrassed. I bite my lips and my eyes turn red with embarrassment. “I want to shut him up! How dare he laugh at me?!” I thought and hearing his laughter which won't be stopped, I turned around unexpectedly and covered his mouth with my palm. We looked at each other dazingly then I felt a wet sensation in my palm which made me remove my palm immediately and when I looked at my palm, I realized Adams h
~Adams Pov~ “NO!” What did she mean by she wouldn't be staying with me after getting married?! Then how should I continue to live after eating meat?! That's impossible, I wouldn't allow that. I glared at her daring her to repeat herself, but it seemed she had made up her mind as she only shook her head and looked at me like I was throwing a tantrum which made me speechless. “Adams, I wouldn't go back to that house after what had happened.” She said and looked at me with eyes filled with determination. “What if I buy a house and design it the way you want? We will make that our matrimonial home?” I asked gently hoping she would agree to my suggestion. Merina looked at me for a while and suddenly placed her legs on the floor and attempted to stand up but she wobbled and almost fell I was fast enough to catch her and stabilize her. She inhaled deeply and closed her eyes, and then a tear dropped from her eyes which baffled me. “Adams…You beast!” She spat out angrily and glared at
~Micca Pov~I coughed as I looked at the ceiling. My eyes were bloodshot, I had been sick for days, it hadn’t been easy so far, and sometimes it felt like I had been poisoned I am beginning to suspect Mark since he wouldn’t allow me to leave the hospital, and also wouldn’t call in a doctor, I have been vomiting everything that goes into my tummy and I have been feeling dizzy, it’s got so bad that I can’t even move my legs but all mark keep yapping about is how he want to protect me from Adams as the outside was not safe but I feel I am not even safe with him. My head shifted to the door and seeing Mark enter with a tray of food, I ignored him and adjusted myself properly then closed my eyes so as not to see his bastard face. I heard his sigh then he traced my neck and face which was all skin and bones now, “I’m sorry baby, I never knew it has gotten to this, I have been busy dealing with the aftermath and throwing attacks so you can be safe, but I never knew you were this sick until
~Adams pov~I took a deep breath in front of Merina’s room, I clenched the test result I had just received from the doctor’s office. It was supposed to be a good thing but the news that followed scared me so much. Merina is pregnant. The thought of it brought joy to my heart, the thought that she has our fruit growing in her heart made me want to run around the place in joy, but the complications that come with her pregnancy are something I fear so much. I took a deep breath and put on a calm face before pushing open the door to the room but what I found was an empty bed, I raised my eyebrow in surprise, “She is awake?!” I muttered then walked inside then sat down on the couch waiting as I thought she might be in the toilet doing her thing. But I waited for long without seeing the toilet door open, and that was when my eyes saw the drip package on the ground, I frowned and bent down take it then I saw it torn. My eyes flashed with shock, I stood up hastily and rushed to the toilet
~Merina Pov~ I woke up and looked at the white wall, my eyes was dazed and filled with confusion, “Where am I?!” I asked myself but no one was there to respond to me, I sat up gently and noticed the IV drip connected to my hand. I frowned as everything came rushing in. The Conference, the talks, and the secrets. I closed my eyes tiredly, “No wonder I had lost consciousness, everything was so tiring. I felt so drained and suddenly I didn't want to see anyone. I was still dressed in the gown I had worn to the conference. I looked around and saw no one there, I suddenly stood up with the help of the bed, and then I looked at the drip which was connected to my hand and was dripping little by little. I frowned in impatience then suddenly removed the injection from my hand which drew blood but I could care less about it, then I took the drip and cut it off then drank it all without a change of expression. I looked out of the window and suddenly had one desire, I didn't know what came ov
~Adams Pov~ I watched in distress as Merina shed tears of pain, this was one of the reasons I didn’t want her here. There were too many revelations and she had just recovered, her being here might trigger her wound and it might hurt her. My chest felt so much pain and I couldn’t help but sweat just thinking about it.I leaned down and buried her face to my chest then kissed her forehead. I looked at the reporters who looked so excited as they had gotten so much worthy news. I knew they would do her justice but it’s was left with just one thing which I had to do. It’s time for everyone to know of Merina’s talents and the scams her so-called family had done to her. I turned to look at the manager of my company PR and gave him a signal which he understood immediately, then he turned serious and hushed the reporters, then smiled on seeing the obedient crowd. I sat down with Merina on my leg and I hugged her in my arms like no man's business. I don’t care if people are watching and all I
Merina Pov I walked confidently into the hall with my heels clicking on the floor. I was dressed in a way that brought out an aggressive but elegant aura. My eyes were as sharp as a hawk and my face held a polite but indifferent smile. In my hand was a small handbag. The hall became as quiet as the night after I announced my presence, then walked to the front where Adams stood with his mouth agape as he looked at me with a shocked face. I smiled when I got close to him then whispered, “Hubby, I am here.” I said and saw his eyes brighten up with laughter. I couldn't help but chuckle too then held his hand, “Did I disturb you? I’m sorry, I just don't want you to face this alone. It's time to step out and assist you. I have always wanted to face the world with you and fight it off, but I have never had the confidence, seeing the announcement yesterday, I know I am the one drawing you back, it is time to stand next to you with my hand in yours as we tackle things as couples. I know you
Adams Pov I walked inside the house at a fast pace. I had just heard everything that had happened on the internet an hour ago. I had never expected Marina's father to break up with Merina at this time when things were still against her.It seems something is giving them confidence. I had always known Merina’s family is shameless but her father’s act was so shameless this time around. Seeing Merina in the middle of the fire, he immediately disowned her. I can't imagine what she is feeling now. She had faced a lot and this would hurt her which is why I immediately put down things and rushed home. I opened the door and saw her in an apron with a spatula cooking in the kitchen. My heart beat increased seeing her gentle side, but the surging emotions in my eyes cooled down when I saw her so calm and also seemed to be enjoying the new home. I cleared my throat, disrupting her focus on the food she was cooking.Her face lit up with a smile then she opened her arms wide before running towar
Merina Pov~My heart shook when Adams Father gave the options, my fist clenched in a fist and with my eyes looking at him with disdain, how could a father do this? He prioritize his interest than his son’s interest. Well, I am not surprise, I have a father like that too and having experience something this heartbreaken before, I could understand how Adams feel. I turned to look at Adams and was surprised to see him looking so calm and elegant, then his lips curled up in a mocking smile making me curious to know what he was thinking, I felt my hand being grabbed then Adams nodded seriously. “You are mistaken, Master Nart…” Adams said and I was shocked, my mouth open in a gasp when he changed the way he addressed his father, I looked at the wide mouth of Madam Nath and also his father who was taken aback, then Adams scoffed mockingly, and continued, “The company belong to me, now. You might have shares, but what you have is only 15% while I have 55% of the company shares, and also,”
~Adams Pov~ I frowned in annoyance then brought out my phone in annoyance then picked it up without looking at the caller id. “Speak!” I ordered.“Son!” I looked at the caller id again after hearing the voice and upon confirming that its was really my father, I twitched my lips then placed it on my ear again.“What do you want?” I asked irritatedly. I know he wouldn't say anything useful other than giving orders that would only benefit him and I don't have time for this. I feel exhausted. “Where are you? Come back home. Your mother and I need to see you.” He said which made me pinch my brows in frustration, then I looked at Merina whose head was still bowed listedly. My eyes narrowed in thought then after making a decision, “Okay.” I said to my father on the phone then hang up without waiting for him to say another word.I slipped my hands inside my pockets and then fixed my gaze on Merina calmly which made her flinch. I scoffed at her guilty look then sighed tiredly. “You are so
~Adams Pov~I hugged her tightly and placed her head on my chest, I could feel from the way she hugged me so tightly that she was terrified. Merina might be brave but she has never come across something like this. I felt so much frustration in my heart just thinking of how my pure woman was facing all this, and it’s all happening because of me. The thought breaks my heart and the wish to kill everyone who had a hand in it grew stronger.I pushed her away slowly then held her face in my hand then gave her a gorgeous smile. “Scared?” I asked with smiles in my eyes. Merina looked at me shyly then shook her head embarrassingly. I knew she was so shy and the look on her face as she tried to hide her weakness made me burst out in laughter. I felt so free and the tension in between my brows eased alots. If the shareholders saw me. I am sure they will be so shocked and terrified but only with my woman can I remain at peace and put away those frowns. I took Merina’s hand and walked her back
