The atmosphere between the both of them tensed up as Dylan didn't utter any words, making Katrina frightened. She should've believed him. He was her husband and shouldn't have any aims in hirting her. She debated in her thoughts on what to do to make him forgive her, although see couldn't forgive herself for how she treated him.“I..” she was just about to say something when Dylan's voice interrupted her.“Katrina, you do not have to apologize to me. What I did was to stop a fraudster from stealing my wife's money. I really do not care about how you feel about my actions. You're my wife now, you should get used to things like this from me” Dylan declared, and then he turned away to leave. She watched his figure fade slowly in the hallway and soon, he cornered towards his bedroom. She was a bit confused, first, he acted like she offended him and now he was bossy toward her. She could be everything, but not naive and would never allow a man to trample over her, even though he was her
The doctor had just finished giving the last medication to Jeremy, but he was still unconscious, making Katrina even more worried. She gazed up at him as he checked the little boys temperature from the device.“Doctor, how is my son?” She asked him curiously, putting a hand on Jeremy's body to check his temperature. He was running a fever earlier so they had to give him more treatments.Katrina was in so much rage mixed with anxiety, she couldn't stop thinking about the how to make Lucy pay for what she'd caused the kids to go through. Not to talk about their nanny who'd allowed this to happen.Sje never should've allowed this happen in the first place. If it all wasn't for Dylan who'd set their wedding on such an auspicious day when they had to celebrate Christmas together.She tightened his fists, almost breaking her almond shaped artificial nails which she'd been proud of. Katrina's head was filled with so many thoughts but then, she didn't want to make things difficult for Dylan b
After two days.Katrina was dressed up in dark pants and gray shirt as she headed into the van. She signed to the driver, who already knew where they were heading, to kick off and he drove immediately. Her eyes were fixed directly on the tablet, she was trying to sort out some things, so she was distracted. The ride took about twenty minutes and all through, Katrina was busy on her tablet, even when they arrived at the Anderson mansion, she still didn't stop her work..She was accompanied by two of Dylan's bodyguards into the mansion headings straight for the living room. It was very early in the morning and the Andersons we're having breakfast when she walked in to meet them. Katrina purposely came at such time in order to meet up with everyone before they'd leave for work.She finally let a guard take the tablet from her while she heads straight for the dining room. Seeing that everyone was there except for Mr Anderson, Katrina was glad that he wasn't going to witness the next scen
Katrina left the Anderson mansion a few hours later and she arrived in time to take the kids out as she'd promised them. It was still the merry season, even though so many things had happened in the past three days, she already made a promise to make the children happy, and she was going to fulfill it.Katrina took both kids in her car and they left the mansion, straight to the park which was the first location in their bucket list. Before coming to this place, Katrina already had a space in an expensive restaurant booked for them which was a surprise, she didn't want to spill the beans yet until they went there..Upon arriving at the park, Katrina emerged first, accompanied by two guards who helped her bring out the stuff She'd prepared to do a mini picnic with the kids. The beautifully pleated mats, baskets of delicious snacks and sweets were also present. They helped her set the space she chose while she returned to the car to bring the kids..They all settled on the mat, she loo
Dylan walked through a dark hallway with his eyes fixed on the road like that of a cat. Even while it was dark, he could see clearly where he was headed to.Oh, he couldn’t wait to arrive his destination. Dylan had always made it his principle to stick to his business and not poke-nose in the affairs of Katrina. Well, until it involved his kids.He knew Lucy was a slimy bitch who despised Katrina for reasons known to her. He quite frankly didn’t care what the bitch had against his wife. But she had crossed the line when she had attacked his kids.Dylan had never thought he would ever be protective of anyone the way he had become of his kids. Especially since until a few weeks ago, he didn’t even know he had them and yet he had grown so attached to them.It was highly unacceptable for Lucy to think she could toy with his kids and get away with it.He stopped at the entrance, the darkness disgusting him where light shone on a figure tied to the chair. Dylan smiled at the sleeping figur
Dylan felt bad for Katrina’s outburst. He could not blame her for how she felt. She had angrily left with the kids in her car, not bothering about him.When Dylan finally got home, the house was eerily quiet. He had been scared for a minute that Katrina had left with the kids. He strolled to the kids room to find them fast asleep on their beds.Dylan gave a sigh of relief as he walked towards his room. He halted when he was close to Katrina’s room. He didn’t have a doubt that she was inside since the kids were in.He contemplated with himself on knocking on the door and after a few minutes he gave in.Katrina opened the door with a glare on her face. She had been waiting for her nanny Dalia to honor the invitation she had given her but Dalia was yet to show up.Her face scrunched up in annoyance when she met Dylan outside her room. Katrina stared at him without uttering a word.Dylan realized she was giving him the silent treatment. He composed himself, hoping Katrina would see the si
Katrina woke up feeling a lot better. Waking up to her two children tucked under her arms was one of the best feelings in the world. She felt more relaxed and within her elements. She felt like the Katrina she was until Dylan had thrusted himself into her life.Without the nanny, Katrina was more than happy to help her kids get ready. They took quite a lot of time but it was fun. The way Joanna would run around with the bed covers while Jeremy somehow had his car toy with him, tracing it everywhere in her room.It had been a real battle before she had been able to get them to brush their teeth, before helping them with their bath.Once done, they all headed downstairs for breakfast like old times. Only this time, it wasn’t going to just be the three of them seated for breakfast. Dylan was already seated at the head of the table with a coffee in head, reading a newspaper.Katrina was quite shocked since she didn’t know anyone still read the newspaper. After all they lived in a digital
Katrina had prepared Joanna and Jeremy for their ballet dance which was going to be happening in four hours. Every year, Katrina had enrolled her kids in a ballet fundraising scheme for children.For the fundraising, the kids would dance to different ballet tunes, showcasing their skills as a ballet dancer and every year Katrina made sure they attended/Not because they were doing it for charity but because her kids genuinely enjoyed doing it. Joanna would dance around in her ballet dress and sandals, screaming at the top of her voice that she was a ballet princess and today was no different as Katrina tried to get them ready.She quickly sent a text to Dylan, reminding him of the event. It was something which meant a lot to the kids and Joanna with Jeremy haven’t stopped gloating about how their daddy would he present to watch them.Only few dads ever showed up to the event. The hall was always crowded with parents. 80% women and 20% men which was a poor number compared to the number
THREE YEARS LATER“Dylan stop! You’re going to wake Sarah up. Don’t…stop,” Katrina scolded Dylan as his hands keep coming up to touch her boobs.“But they are so big. I don’t know, I think I like it when you’re pregnant with my baby. You only seem to become more beautiful and irresistible,” Dylan replied with a cheeky smile.Three whole years had passed and for Dylan and Katrina it was the best three years of their life. After the trail of Mr Micahelson and Anastasia who were both sent to jail, Katrina had gotten pregnant.She gave birth to a girl Sarah who was two years old now and 3 months ago, Katrina took a pregnancy test which showed positive.“Well try your possible best to resist me. It had taken me quite the strength to put this little woman to sleep and If she wakes up, she’s your responsibility.” Katrina snapped.“Yes mum,” Dylan replied rolling his eyes.“Don’t roll your eyes at me!” Katrina yelled out throwing a pillow at him. Her yelling almost waking Sarah up.“Mum! Mum!
While Katrina left to the police station to alert the police about the sudden kidnap of her children, Dysln on the other hand went straight to visit his grandfather.He had his suspicion concerning the sudden disappearance of his kids and the only person who came to mind was his grandfather. Besides, if it turned out his grandfather was innocent, there was no better person to help me look for his kids than the old man.He was very much aware that his grandfather didn’t run a clean business. He had access to some of the prestigious gangs that caused mayhem in the city and even sponsored some when he needed to take a person out.“Learn to knock will you! Such mannerless behavior. I blame your mother and more so your father for not picking the woman I had chosen for him. Perhaps you would’nt be so…”“My kids are missing,” Dylan stated sternly interrupting his grandfather.Mr Michaelson raised his eyes to his grandson, slowly removing rhe eyeglasses he had on.“And what makes you conclude
Katrina stood in front of the court, her back straight with her head held high. She was dressed impeccable in a black suit pant and had worn heels. That’s because she knew she was walking out as a free woman finally.Her step sister had confessed to the crime which meant she would not be convicted for her grandfather’s death.It pained her that Lucy could not be in court because she had been deemed unfit to be present. The process had been quick and short, the judge declaring Katrina not guilty of the crime and seeing her free.Katrina felt relieved course through her veins, tears spilling from her eyes as the judge gave his verdict.She had hugged her lawyer and out of excitement have Dylan a hug.“I’m sorry,” Katrina said immediately stepping aside from Dylan.“Congratulations Mrs Katrina…”“It’s Miss Katrina lawyer. And now this is done, I’ll get to start immediately with the divorce process to Mr Dylan here,” Katrina interjected.Dylan sighed, aware that this was going to happen.
Dylan stormed into his grandfather’s mansion to talk to him. He wasn’t sure what his grandfather had said to Katrina that pissed her off so much.Worst of, Dylan had been positive that he was finally getting somewhere with Katrina. At least she tolerated his presence when the kids were around but his recent visit had been a total disaster.“Dylan. You’re here.” His supposed fiancé Anastasia said, her heels clicking on the floor as she walked towards him.Dylan’s jaws Locked as he glared at Anastasia.“You…” he started closing the gap between them so fast, his hands curling around Anastasia’s neck as he slammed her back against a wall forcefully.“What the hell were you thinking by going to see Katrina at the hospital.” Dylan stated angrily.Anastasia’s eyes were wide open in fear as she felt a sharp pain at her spine while trying to breath properly.“It wasn’t my idea. Your grand father asked me to accompany him.” She defended.“And you felt it was in your place to visit my wife?.” Dy
Today like the past two days was going to be fun and full of laughter for Katrina and she looked forward to it. From the moment her eyes lid opened, quickly snapping shut from the bright light that glowed in the room, Katrina already knew she could wait for her day to start.Somehow her not being able to believe Dylan bothered him a lot that he had returned with the kids the next day and now he promised her she would get to see them again.Katrina could not imagine the strings he had pulled to have the kids come stay for a long period of time but she was immensely grateful for it.Each time spent with the kids gave her hope and more will to fight for herself. For them. Just like yesterday, Dylan had promised to brring the kids over for a while and Katrina was looking forward to that. What she wasn’t looking forward to was seeing Dylan’s grandfather and Dylan’s fiancé walking into her room.“What are you doing here?.” Katrina asked haughtily the moment Mr Michaelon walked in with Anas
Katrina sat upright on her bed. Three days had passed since the horrible scene that had played out in front of her but each day she woke up, it felt just like the past.Out of everything was the sad part of not knowing where her kids were. Surely Dylan had understood perfectly that she was coming for her kids once she was done with the case of her grandfather’s death. Of which her lawyer had spoken to her, letting her know things were looking up for them as she had almost half of the jury at her side.Katrina wasn’t sure what magic had convinced them but she was glad about it because she needed to get out of the hospital and house arrest she had been placed on.“Mrs Katrina. You have a visitor.” A female police officer said.“It’s just Katrina.” Katrina replied, typing her hair into a loose low bun.“Okay Katrina. She’ll see you.” The police said to the visitor.“No. Get out.” Katrina snapped, her eyes red as she saw her visitor.“Excuse me?.” The police office asked taking a step ba
Dylan didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him what was going on. He had put two and two together and it dawned on him why his grandfather was in Katrina’s ward. He only wondered what his grandfather had said that had upset Katrina so much.“What’s going on here?. Grandfather ? Why are you here?.” Dylan asked the old man with a glare on his face but Mr Michaelson wasn’t faced by his grandson’s glare.“Katrina?.” Dylan asked turning his attention to Katrina.Katrina scoffed, her eyes throwing daggers at Dylan. She was beyond hurt that she could not even express herself as fresh tears wailed in her eyes.“You…”“Sir. Please I’m sorry but you can’t be in here.” A police officer said all of a sudden, stepping into the room.Mr Michaelson frowned because he had personally gotten the permission to see Katrina for as long as he wanted from the judge but he figured the presence of his grandson was the reason his visit was being cut short.“Don’t worry officer. Me and my boy will be right behind y
Katrina hated the smell that hospital had. It felt like death and she felt dead. After all, she was half dead for as long as she could not remember and the nurses had made it a point to remind her it was a miracle she was now awake.She hated hearing that and more so, she hated the fact that she was heavily guarded with policemen like some criminal who had been caught on a killing spree. She wished for the times when she was a free woman and could go anywhere she wanted to. Now she was confined to the four walls of this hospital room, with only her lawyer and Dylan allowed to visit her. What made all of this more frustrating was the fact that she was not allowed to see her kids. Her own beautiful two children had not seen their mother ever since the burial of her grandfather. It was still shocking to her that Lucy would go as far as starting a case against her concerning the death of her her grandfather. The worst of it all were the implicating evidence her lawyer said Lucy had broug
Dylan walked ahead of Anastasia, not wanting to talk to her. His grandfather had suggested he took Anastasia for some drinks and now he found himself walking into a cafe with Anastasia struggling to catch up with him due to the heels she had on.“Dylan dear, would you mind taking a hold of my hand? Your legs are quite long I must say…” Anastasia said looking at Dylan over in a seductive way.Dylan stopped in his tracks, huffing as he turned to look at Anastasia. He let her wrap her hands around his arm as they both walked into the cafe.Anastasia took a seat, batting her eyelashes at Dylan who payed her no attention. She was excited to finally be in his presence after such a long time. Anastasia had tried all her possible best to earn a date from Dylan. By going to every function he attended and even visiting his grandfather frequently, but she had never for once met him.“What would you like to order?.” Dylan asked looking at the menu.“Oh. Anything you want is fine by me. I’m less i
