2024-10-29 19:42:56It's Nina, she______“ I cut her off, as I cursed loudly into the phone impatiently “ How many times do I have to tell you that there's nothing going on between Nina and me. That picture you saw in the newspaper was Photoshopped“ I lied to her, after that night, Deborah has been questioning me about Nina and I, and I have to deny it every time. I'm getting tired of her emotional blackmail.
I scribbled something on the files in front of me, I have a 1:00pm meeting with the board concerning the launching of the new“ Thomson's hospital” which has been built and now this.
“It's not that Michael, Nina was involved in an accident and she's dead“ I froze as the pen hovered in my hand. Nina is dead? How come? No, it can't be true, I saw her two days ago and she was healthy. I laugh, Deborah has started again with her planks. I'm not in the mood for any of this.

After having a quickie with Austin down the hall, I smoothened out my dress and turned to walk out, cat_ walking into the corridor.

“ Daniel ” Lillian's mother's called out to me. I stood up from my place beside the bed and went to meet her where she was seated in the resting room with Lillian's Dad.“ Yes Mom. You called me ” I answered looking at the both of them as I avoided their eyes. Anytime I see them, I can't help feeling guilty that I've failed them. That I couldn't protect their daughter.“ Daniel, why don't you go home to rest. I and Lilian' s father will watch after her till you arrive. Okay ” Lillian's Mom said as she stood up to pat me lightly on the shoulder.“ But, I want to be here with her always ” I protested bitterly looking at Lillian's father for help.“Yes.

Yes, guys I will be getting married this Saturday but I'm not happy, my best friend is lying in the hospital and there's nothing I could do to help her.“Lily, Darling” My mom's voice called out to me down the stairs. Standing up sluggishly from the bed I threw the duvet angrily on the floor and went into the bathroom to brush and shower.“Lily?” Mom called me again but this time, she was inside my room. Her voice sounded excited as I wondered what would make my mom happy this morning.“I'm in the bathroom mom, any problem” I called out to her, as I rubbed a lather of shower gel onto my back, enjoying the sweet scent.“None dear, just wanted to let you know that your wedding gown has just arrived from Paris

I woke up to the sound of Michael sobbing on my shoulder. I squinted my eyes at the sudden light and forcefully closed them back while listening to him sobbing on my hand.I try to reach out and touch him but my hands seem too heavy for me to carry. If only I could tell him that I'm awake. That he doesn't need to cry anymore.“Tesoro, I love you so much. And I will do anything for you. I wish all my money could bring you back to me, I would have done it for you because I love you ” He whispered to me.I wanted to tell him that I love him too but my throat was so dry that no sound came out of it. It looks like I haven't been using it for days.What happened to me? Where am I? Why is Michael crying?”The sound of Michael's phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts as I felt him perk me on my forehead before he walked out. I tried to call out to him but no sound was coming out of my mouth. I slumped dejectedly on the bed as the tears flowed freely down m

It's been a while since I last talked or saw him. I wonder what's wrong with him?“Hey dad” I called slowly into the phone unsure of the kind of mood he might be in.“ Deborah Melton? ” My dad screamed into the phone as I held the phone away from my ear, surprised, what could have made dad so worked up?.“ Did you and Austin planned Nina's accident? ” Dad asked in a hushed voice, probably not wanting mom to hear about it.“ I______didn't do____”“ Why didn't you ask Austin to kill her off.

I paced around my office in anticipation, ever since our last call with Lillian, we couldn't get in touch with her. She had refused to answer any of our calls and had sent it to her voicemail.“ Any luck with her yet?” I turned to ask Danny who was trying her phone again. I could see the worry etch his brows as sweat streamed down his face. I couldn't help being annoyed with myself that I had caused everything. I regretted ever bringing him and Lillian into this mess. Hell, I regretted ever risking my wife and children's life. If only I never met Deborah then none of this would have happened.“ Not yet. She just won't pick up even after leaving her a dozen messages. She's just so stubborn especially when it comes to Nina” Danny exclaimed running his hands through his hair in frustration as he paced to and fro
