Chapter 115“Mr. Daniel I’m sorry to say…………..” the doctor said and paused, staring at Daniel who was also staring at him waiting for him to speak. “The surgery and all was successful. The babies survived and they’re in good health but Lisa slipped into a coma” the doctor said and Daniel felt numb immediately. “Mr. Daniel” the doctor called and he blinked twice returning to reality. “Can I see her?” Daniel asked “Sure, when she’s been transferred you can see her. Let’s just hope she wakes up in time” the doctor said and Daniel nodded. He felt tears gathered in his eyes as his heart broke into pieces. He almost lost balance but Dina was quick to hold him. “Thank you “ Daniel said to Dina as he sat on the chair. “She’s going to be fine. Let’s just keep praying for her” Dina said to Daniel and he nodded in response. **************************************Dina smiled as she stared at the beautiful babies. They were just too cute, they had blue eyes , she wondered where they got t
Chapter 1166 years laterThe sound of Lisa’s phone woke her up from her beauty sleep. She wondered who was calling her by this time of the morning. She groaned softly and stretched her hands to pick up her phone from the bedhead stand.She opened one of her eyes and stared at the caller’s ID and saw it was the manager of her restaurant. She answered the phone call and placed it on her ear. “Good morning ma’am “ Her manager’s voice echoed from the phone. Two years later after Lisa had given birth, she decided to set up something for herself. With her little savings and the help of Daniel and of course her little experience from the restaurant she worked in the past, she was able to open hers. It has been a successful one. A lot of CEOs in town always come to eat at the restaurant, although it was through the help of Daniel that the restaurant became popular. The restaurant was named after Lisa’s Kids. “The Bella’s “.“Aria, Good morning, “ Lisa said as she managed to stand up from
Chapter 117Lisa smiled at her and stood up pretending she was about to leave but to Isabel's surprise she removed the duvet Isabella used in covering her body and to her surprise she saw Isabella’s leg bandaged. “Isabella, Did you break your leg?” Lisa asked, almost yelling. Isabella joined her lips together staring at her mom who was looking so furious. There were a lot of traits the quadruplet possessed, one was joining their lips together when scared or rather nervous, they got that from Lisa. Another was them biting their fingernails and many more. “How come? When did it happen?” Lisa asked Isabella who was almost on the verge of tears. Isabella hated the fact that her mom was yelling at her. It hurts her to see her mom angry. “It happened in school yesterday when I was running down the stairs” Isabella sniffed “It happened in school and the school authority didn't bother to call me? Did your nanny know about this?” Lisa asked. The quadruplet's nanny was the one who took the
Chapter 118But there was something weird about the quadruplets that Daniel kept on thinking about. Their eyes and most of what they do remind him of his old best friend, Alfred.He quickly shook off the thoughts, maybe he was the one overthinking things. He coughed slightly and the kids turned to him. “Uncle Daniel, where is mommy?” Isabella asked “She’s outside taking fresh air, “ Daniel said as he walked toward the kids and sat beside them. “How’s your leg?” He asked “It’s okay, At least better than yesterday, “ Isabella said with a shrug“Why didn’t you let your school or your nanny call your mommy? Don’t give me that look, Isabella, I know how convincing you can be” Daniel said and Isabella sighed sadly “I didn’t want mom to be worried about me. I know how she acts when she’s worried about us. It makes her cry sometimes” Isabella said and Daniel exhaled deeply. He could understand the kids cared for their mommy so much and they hate to see her in tears. “But at least, you c
Chapter 119I’m serious Lisa, you don’t have to tell me how you feel about me. I know you don’t feel the same way I feel nor are you ready for anything I understand. I just want you to know I’ll be right here waiting for you till you’re ready” Daniel said and pecked Lisa on her forehead before moving away from her. Lisa sighed as Daniel moved away from her. She was speechless as she didn’t know what to say or do. Daniel has been the best kind of man to Lisa. He’s stood by her when she needed him, he’s always supported her, her dreams, and her kids. He’s been like a father to them. What more could she ask for? He’s stood by her and waited for her for close to 7 years now. God!!! She didn't deserve such a sweet, caring, and kind-hearted man. She then began why she hadn’t developed any feelings for him for the past few years. No matter how hard she tries to love him the way he wants, it just isn’t working. She’s tried. She sighed softly. She didn’t know what was wrong. Maybe it was he
Chapter 120You don't have to if you don't feel like it. I know you don't feel the same way for him. You only see him as the brother you never had” Dina said and Lisa sighed softly. “Sometimes, I begin to wonder. After all these years you still didn't fall in love with him. There are 1 million reasons for women to fall in love with Daniel. What if your heart belongs somewhere else or rather someone else” Dina said and Lisa rolled her eyes at her. “You must be joking” Lisa scoffed“You don't need to love him out of pity. It's gonna hurt him. This is a matter of the heart” Dina said and Lisa sighed softly. She then decided to change the topic of discussion.Aria called me this morning that someone wants to book our restaurant for a business meeting” Lisa said to Dina“Uhm, yeah. It's not a business meeting. It's like a funding party for the CEOs. They do it every year. I guess they picked our restaurant this time” Dina said and Lisa hummed“When are they holding it?” Lisa asked“Next
Chapter 121Do not hurt her. She’s a good woman. You both deserve each other” Daniel smiled at Williams and he nodded in response. Meanwhile, Lisa is seen in Dina’s office with both of them laughing together. Lisa felt happy for Dina. At least she was able to move on from Charles.She never thought Dina would be able to move on after everything but she was glad she did move on. “Clara, can you go check on Isabella in Lisa's office?” Dina said to Clara and she nodded before leaving.“She's so happy Williams is now her dad” Lisa smiled as she stared at Clara till she was out of sight. “Yeah,” Dina said and she stared at Lisa who was smiling at her.“What??” Lisa asked as she scoffed“Daniel” Dina raised her eyebrows. “What about him?” Lisa asked “Tell him how you feel,” Dina said“He knows. He fucking knows and guess what? he said he's going to wait” Lisa said and Dina opened her eyes wide. “Woah, you're lucky, “ Dina said and Lisa scoffed.“Clara said something today. She said sh
Chapter 122The car screeched to a halt in front of Lisa’s compound. Lisa opened the door from inside and alighted the car. She opened the passenger seat and carried Isabella out of the car then closed the door. She walked inside the house and noticed everywhere was so damn quiet. She helped Isabella sit on the couch in the sitting room. “Bella’s” she called out and suddenly she saw Arabella running down the stairs at full speed.“Arabella careful!!” Lisa heard her nanny scream at once. “Oh my goodness” Lisa quickly stood up and rushed to the stairs. Just as Arabella was about to slip, Lisa was quick enough to hold her. She had almost hit her head on the ground. “Oh Jesus! Arabella what were you thinking by running down the stairs “ Lisa yelled at her. She felt so scared when she saw Arabella running down the stairs that way. She was sure Isabella was running that way on the school stairs and broke her leg. “I’m sorry mommy,” Arabella said and pouted. Her eyes were already teary
Chapter 219I’m going to miss grandma…. I wish I could divide her into two pieces so one can go to Singapore and the other would stay with us” Clarabella said and the quadruplets exhaled deeply.“I just can’t wait for mommy and Daddy’s wedding to come so grandma can come back here,” Arabella said “Same here but come to think of it we will be starting a new school here,” Annabella said and the quadruplets opened their eyes wide in shock. “Oh my goodness! I had forgotten too. I just hope the people here are nice and else I’m going back to Singapore “ Isabella said and Clarabella laughed. The rest of the quadruplets stared at her wondering what was funny.“Are you going back to Singapore? Who’s going to take you back there, except you are planning on entering grand ma’s luggage when next she comes? Besides, you are so small, I’m sure you can enter her luggage and nobody would know” Clarabella said and they all burst into laughter. Isabella rolled her eyes at Clarabella.“You must be in
Chapter 218“I love you,” he said and then he lay on the bed beside Lisa. He moved her petite body towards himself as he cuddled her. Lisa who was already feeling weak from the sex closed her eyes and suddenly drifted to sleep.**********************The sound of her phone’s ringing tone disrupted Lisa from her beauty sleep. She groaned softly and opened her eyes. She sat up properly on the bed and stared at the other side of the bed only to see Alfred wasn’t in the room. Lisa began to wonder where he had gone to. She decided to answer her phone call. She picked up her phone and saw it was a call from Dina. Just as she was about to answer the call, it ended.“I’ll call her later,” she said out loud and dropped the phone beside her on the bed. She sighed softly, scrutinizing the room but Alfred was nowhere to be found. She tried listening properly if she would hear any sound from the bathroom, thinking Alfred is there but no sound was coming from there, meaning Alfred isn’t there
Chapter 217Lisa opened her eyes wide at the sight of his well-built body and then her eyes moved to his lower area.“Blood of god...” Lisa muttered and quickly turned around. “Don't you have any shame, Alfred? Try to put on some clothes” Lisa said and she heard Alfred chuckle. She scoffed wondering what was funny in what she had said. “You entered my room without knocking and you are asking if I have no shame,” Alfred said and Lisa scoffed.“Whatever!! I'm leaving” she said and held the handle of the door. Just as she was about to open it to leave, she felt Alfred's hands on hers. She swallowed hard as a cold shiver ran down her spine.“Where do you think you are going to go?” Alfred said in a seductive tone as he moved his face close to her neck, sniffing her scent, and just then he brushed her neck with his tongue, sending close shivers down Lisa’s spine.“What are you doing Alfred?” Lisa managed to say but Alfred didn't say a word as his tongue kept doing wonders in her neck.
Chapter 216Mom, I’m so hungry. What did you cook?” Lisa said as she walked past her mom and walked inside the kitchen.********************Lisa and the kids are seen sitting at the dining table waiting for Alfred and Daniel to come to join them before they start eating. Alfred had gone to his room to take his bath and change his clothes, just like Daniel. “Are they not here yet?” Mrs. Rebecca asked, holding a tray of food as she walked out of the kitchen.“No, and I’m not waiting. I’m so hungry” Lisa said and was about to eat when Isabella screamed no!!!“No, mommy we should wait for daddy,” Isabella said and Lisa turned to her mom who shrugged. “Fine then,” Lisa said and rolled her eyes. Just then Alfred and Daniel are seen climbing down the stairs and talking to each other while laughing so hard. They looked so happy together. She then noticed Alfred holding some files in his hands. Lisa rolled her eyes. She was sure it was working again. He hasn't fully recovered yet and he
Chapter 215Lisa walked inside Alfred’s ward looking as angry as ever. Alfred whose eyes were fixed on his phone turned to Lisa wondering why she was angry and her mom wasn’t with her.“Lisa, what’s wrong?” Alfred asked. “I just saw uncle Damon’s wife and then she’s asking me to forgive Uncle Damon that he’s in the hospital, that he has cancer. I’m never going to forgive him, not after everything he did to me and my mother. He fvcking shot my mom. Even when I was pleading with him to help my mom. He paid a deaf ear to my pleas and all he did was hit me telling me to shut up. I can never forgive him, he’s so heartless” Lisa said and Alfred sighed softly.“Remember I paid your uncle to get you for me. He sold you to me if he’s a monster so I’m i” Alfred paused and Lisa rolled her eyes.“At least you were not my uncle. I trusted him, Alfred. He was like a father to me, I even looked up to him like a mentor” Lisa said. Alfred could understand how she was feeling.“Lisa, no matter what
Chapter 214It's been two days and Alfred is still in the hospital, recovering. Lisa has been by his side, while he recovered.Lisa and Alfred had just gotten off the phone with the quadruplets. They missed their parents. They just can't wait for them to come back home.Lisa sat beside Alfred going through her phone when she saw a video of Williams proposing to Dina. Lisa yelled happily and Alfred turned to her wondering why she was yelling.“It's Dina. Williams proposed to her already....” Lisa said and Alfred hummed.“Seems like they've sorted themselves out already,” Alfred said and Lisa nodded in response. Lisa had told Alfred what transpired between Dina and Williams.“I'm so happy for both of them. I need to call her now and congratulate her” Lisa said smiling. Alfred stared at her and then noticed how happy she truly is for her friend. “Why don't you call her later? Can you please go tell the doctor to discharge me, I'm tired of staying in this hospital bed already. I hate the
Chapter 213Meanwhile, Lisa is seen outside Alfred’s ward speaking to Dina on the phone.“I’m so sorry I left without telling you. Alfred was shot and I had to come to see him” Lisa said and Dina sighed softly “It’s fine, you shouldn’t apologize. I'm glad you are with him and he’s okay” Dina said in a sad tone. Lisa then noticed from her voice that she sounded sad.“Is everything alright Dina? Have you told Williams the truth? Have you guys sorted things out?” Lisa asked concerned.“Well, he found out before I told him and he broke up with me, “ Dina said“Oh my goodness!! I’m so sorry Dina. Do you want me to talk to him for you? I can do that if you want” Lisa said “No, it’s fine. I’m serious, I’m okay. Besides, Richard is back in prison now, so I’m okay” Dina said “What about the pregnancy?” Lisa asked “ I’ll just have to keep the baby. I can’t kill an innocent child because of what happened “ Dina said and Lisa sighed softly“I’m sure Williams is going to come around, I know ho
Chapter 212“Lisa” Alfred called, jolting her out of her thoughts.“I didn’t know you were still flirting in the hospital bed. How many nurses have you slept with here?” Lisa asked, obviously jealousy washing all over her veins.“Whatever you see, it isn’t what you think. We were just talking” Alfred sighed“Who is she?” Lisa asked“Rhoda, my ex” Alfred said “Oh wow. I thought she was dead” Lisa said “Same here” Alfred responded “I never knew people were starting to rise from the dead. I’m not surprised “ Lisa said and Alfred exhaled deeply. “How are you feeling?” Lisa asked“I’m feeling better now that you are here with me,” Alfred said and tried sitting up properly on the bed but Lisa held him.“No, you should be resting, alright, “ Lisa said and Alfred smiled at her.“What happened? Daniel told me Andrew shot you” Lisa said“Yeah? And he’s dead” Alfred said as sadness swept through him.“Why are you sad? You should be happy he’s gone and everything is over” Lisa said and Alfred
Chapter 211 You should save the explanation for your ex-husband. If you still love him, you can go back to him and you know what?? It’s over. This relationship cannot work anymore. We are done” Williams said with tears in his eyes as he walked out of the room leaving Dina In tears.Dina sat tiredly on the bed, tears streaming down her cheeks. She began to wonder how Williams had found out about it. She hadn't told anyone apart from Lisa and Lisa would not do such a thing to her, never, she thought as she wiped her tears. She brought out her phone to call Lisa but then on second thought, she dropped the phone. She knows Lisa has been going through a lot lately. Maybe it's high time she learns to fix her problems herself and stop depending on someone, she thought. She would give Williams some space and when he's ready to talk they can sort things out but at first, she needs to think of a way to get rid of Richard for good before he ruins her life. she thought.She stood up from the b
