Tyson’s POVI walked out of my company feeling so exhausted. As a CEO of an international finance company this is my usual feeling, I even had to work on weekends which added to my frustration. I got into my car heading out, I scanned the contract in my hands as I sat waiting for the traffic lights. This contract’s contents are really going to be profitable to me, but there are some minor circumstances surrounding it. It states that I’m going to merge a long-history hotel, called M Hotel, the fact that of all the hotels in this city it has to be this one. Merging with this hotel means I’m gonna be seeing more of Adina. And in the other hand, as a businessman, I can’t refuse a profitable business, but this would also mean that the relationship between I and my ex-wife would be incurable. The only option I have right now is to go do some investigation myself to make sure they had the ability to avoid the merge fate and that’s where I’m currently headed. I was driving off when my e
Adina’s POVI got to where my car was parked and went in, Emma and Ava were already seated. I dropped my bag and was about to start the car when Ava’s voice stopped me. “Mommy? Did I play the game well?”She asked with the cutest voice. “Yes darling you did, and trust me you'll make a great actress in the future. Momma is so proud if you”“Yay!”She screams in excitement. “Okay, who's ready to go to the park?”“I am!”“Hello people, Am I invincible?” Emma asked.“Sorry Aunty Emma, I guess mommy didn't see you there. Right mommy?”“Yes darling.” I replied and we both shared a laugh. “Like mother like daughter, hmm?” Emma scoffed.“You can say that again.”We all headed to the park singing and humming to different songs with a mother daughter and best friends combo. This moments were magical, Emma and Ava are my greatest joy.We got to the park and had so much fun, we went on different rides, played different games together, took lunch and continued our fin time till it was evening.
Adina’s POVIt was a beautiful morning, I got out of bed to do my usual morning business. Christmas was already knocking by the door which meant better service to customers. I got dressed and went to work. I was shocked when Ace welcomed me the moment I entered. “Hello, Miss Abby. It's such a pleasure to see you.”He said with a smirk in his face, with a confused expression I walked past him and went straight to my office. What the hell was he doing here? My meeting with him didn't end well last time, who knows what he was up to now? Just then the realization hit me, he is a professional hotel manager Abby. He was probably sent here to be responsible for the gentrification and upgrade of the hotel’s running. Oh no, this might be bad for me. This also means he has the power to induce personal Change in the running of the hotel. That must be the reason for the decorations I saw earlier, today was his welcome party. Wow, how time flies so fast. I quickly composed myself and went out
Adina’s POVI could begin with the excitement inside me today, or I could begin with the beautiful lighting in the city shining so bright announcing the arrival of Christmas. Every Christmas seems to bring something special to me so I prayed deep down that this year's Christmas shouldn't be any different. We were informed some days back that we would be receiving a very special guest which I look forward to because I'll be serving them today.I got dressed in my Christmas winter jacket looking all polished like Santa before leaving for work. I got to work and went straight to the staff quarters getting set for the day. When I got out, to my surprise, something unexpected happened. Right in front of me were the two people I despise so much. Tyson and Sophie, were they the special guests we were having? I thought. I was shocked at first but decided to show professionalism and just ignore them to do my job. I quickly curled a smile and walked up to them.“Merry Christmas Miss. Bit an
Adina’s POVSophie and Tyson had signed into the hotel after Trent had done his magic on her the previous day. She booked one of the presidential suites which I thought obviously her and Tyson were to stay. Just when I thought it was all over, a call came in through the customer service line and I was informed that Sophie had requested to see me. “What the hell does she want this time? Lord please help me control myself.” I entered her presidential suite and saw her sitting in the bed totally naked. She pouted her lips and pretended to complain.“Oh my goodness, sorry you had to see me this way. My fiance tore my dress last night. He wanted me so much, just like an impatient young boy. But he prepared a new dress for me, could you take it for me?”I just stared at her nonchalantly, her words didn't ignite a single feeling inside me, she brought the dress to me herself when she noticed that I didn't budge at her words. It was a very sexy red dress, but when I tried to help her pull
Adina’s POVPoor Sophie laid down there pretending to have passed out, Tyson rushed up to her trying to wake her up thinking she really passed out. He tried all he knew, but to no avail, another maid offered to bring water as she advised it could work. The water arrived minutes later and was given to Tyson, all this while Emma and I just stood there trying the best we could to hold in our laughter. The water was sprinkled on her face, which made her blink twice. When She opened her eyes and saw people around her, she realized she was still in the crime scene or whatever my dear readers wishes to call it. She took a quick glare at everyone and passed out again, maybe this time it was real, or so I thought. Until one of the maids sprinkled water on her again and she woke up, by this time everyone had begun taking pictures and recordings of the fiasco. She quickly stood up and ran up to her suite in tears, with an extremely tight dress and a spray of offensive odor accompanying her. W
Tyson’s POVIt was dinner time and everyone was seated already, the arena was so cool and calm, with different people of different caliber seated around tables. I just sat on my own waiting for Sophie to come down, minutes later she walked down the stairs looking breathtaking.At first I felt proud of her looks until I noticed how uncomfortable she looked in it. I tried to find out what the matter was but she was being stubborn. Minutes later beads of sweat began to appear on her face, which made me worried. I tried yet again to know what was wrong, but to no avail. Some minutes later she got up to leave when some waitress blocked her way, the commotion was getting out of hand, which made the band stop playing the soft music in the background, or so I thought until everyone’s nose started moving left and right. I turned and noticed that Sophie had just released something really offensive, everywhere became dead silent making me really embarrassed. I was thankful that this didn’t h
Adina’s POVTyson rushed up to me trying to defend and plead on my behalf, but the dude in the room wasn’t an easygoing guy. All Tyson’s please tell on deaf ears, soon the guy called our managing director which was Of course Ace, at this point I knew I was done for.But to my surprise, just the look on Tyson’s face made Ace act normal, he didn’t scold me he just acted calmly and asked for a cleaner to come clean up the mess. I guess the fear of getting beaten is the beginning of wisdom. Tyson asked for a first aid box and I wondered why until I felt a sharp pain on my leg, I looked downwards and noticed that I was cut by the glass pieces. The first aid box arrived in no time and he was about dressing my wound, though I resisted but he was adamant as always. But unfortunately, his fiancée walked in and met us in that position, with a jealous and hurt face she asked. “Tyson? Is this the way to the kitchen?”“Oh, oh,” he mumbled.I curled out a smile staring at them both doing a lot o
Adina’s POVI woke up to a light kiss on my forehead and lips. I slowly opened my eyes and there he was the most handsome man on earth staring at me with his cute baby eyes. “Wake up sleepy head, it's our freedom day” he said.Yeah, it's our wedding day today, and Tyson is so excited to relive this moment, with his reaction no one needs a microphone to announce that he's been waiting for this day to come or probably dreaming a lot about this day. “Alright I'm up.” I said sitting upright. Just then, he placed a tray containing hot tea with some pancakes with a smiley face design on my lap. Oh, my world, I missed this so much. Tyson is such a great cook, and this right here is one of my favorite dish I enjoyed so much. “Aww, you served me breakfast in bed?”“Of course I did, I missed doing this, and I miss your smile that comes with it, Sophie was…..”“Uh-uh, I won't allow you to spoil this magical moment by mentioning her, just allow me to eat my food in peace.”“Yeah, that's a real
Tyson’s POV“So please, I’m begging you. Would you marry me? Again?”“Tyson?” she called out with teary eyes. “Are you serious?”“Of course I am. I figured this could be the best time to ask this, now that Sophie is out of the picture, and you want to make things right. It's better I do this now before you change your mind.” She chuckled at my words. She was about to say something when suddenly the doctor, three nurses, plus Emma rushed in.“Come on now peeps, do you really have to spoil this moment for me?”“Wait what? Mr. Tyson but you seem alright?”“Of course I'm alright doc, and now you just ruined my proposal with your presence.”“Then who was pushing the beside bell calling for attention.”Currently it dawned on me, I placed my hands on some button beside my bed, but how was I supposed to know what it does? I've never been to the hospital before, this was my first time.“Uh — uh, sorry doc, I think I'm the one.” I said removing my hand from the button with a weird smile.“Mr.
Tyson’s POV I squinted my brows trying really hard to remember where I've heard that before? And when it finally dawned on me, a stream of tears dropped on my cheeks.“Ricky. Ricky.” I called out as Adina joined me in tears too.This was the same room Ricky was laid when he was being given last office treatments. I remember clearly. Though I wasn't here before he died, I was here after. I guess that’s the reason, Adina is so upset to date. I could have done better, I should have been here before he died like he was asking for. Nonetheless, we both knew that he wouldn't make it due to his illness, but we were just hopeful, the least I could do was show up, But I didn't.“Yes Tyson, at least you remembered this one,” Adina said.“This was the same bed where our son died, and I was petrified of losing you on this same spot. It would be a heavy blow to my chest.” She added.Wait, what? Did she just say she’s scared of losing me? Or did I not hear her clearly enough? “Adina? You’re scar
Adina’s POVThat was the same ward Ricky was rolled into before he died. Tears rolled down my cheeks yet again. Emma quickly understood and held me lightly in my hand, jolting me out of my thoughts. “It's okay, he's going to be fine,” she whispered.I took a deep breath and thanked the receptionist before heading to the private ward. We got to the front door and his name was written boldly on the wall.“TYSON BRICKS.”I took another breath again before opening the door slowly. Ava quickly rushed in and went to her father’s bedside.She took about five minutes to scrutinize his whole body from head to toe, and slowly raised her head up looking straight into my eyes.“Mommy, I look just like my daddy.” she finally said something after what felt like forever.I broke down in tears hearing her tiny voice and little mind watching her dad in comparison with herself.“Daddy, you're alive. Where have you been Dad? My friends mocked me a lot that I didn't have a father but thank god I met you
Adina’s POV Haven’t you punished me enough? I cried inwardly.I walked back to her with a straight face, hoping I could get her to talk.“Ava? Your aunt tells me you’ve refused to eat since yesterday. Can you at least tell momma what the matter is?”“You are the matter mummy, you are?” She said with a teary voice and moist eyes. I couldn’t believe my eyes as I watched my little girl shed tears.“Did you know yesterday in school mommy, my friends laughed at me because I didn’t have a dad? I told them what you told me that my dad is a hero in the sea world but that even didn’t help, it only made matters worse as they began calling me a sea girl.”“I was mocked by my friends, mom. I just sat down and watched after the close of school as their dads just kept coming to pick them up, I cried mom, I really cried.”I stood there dumbfounded, and in shock. Here I was thinking my baby was doing all fine, little did I know that she had started to endure all this from a very young age and fake a
Adina’s POV “Sophie, just pray that you leave this place alive after I’m done with you.” I mumbled, still with the rage inside me. I stood there watching and recording all the atrocities she has committed until today. She tried to escape, but the house was already on automatic shut down. Tyson smiled weakly, thinking he was the god of magic that had placed the house on shutdown. His face was now becoming pale as he was already losing a lot of blood.I thought I could still contain the rage a little longer, but I lost it when she was about to pull the trigger on my HUSBAND. I quickly rushed in and pounced on her.“This is for wanting to frame my husband ” I said as I sat on her, giving her a resounding slap.“This is for, making him absent during my son's death.” I said, again, giving her another dose.“This is for snatching him away from me”“This is for the several times you stressed the living light out of him.”“This is for the embarrassment you caused him”“This is for taking aw
Tyson’s POVI opened my eyes slowly to see myself in the clinic with a nurse beside me. I tried raising myself up but felt a sharp pain in my leg, my mind flashed back to yesterday’s incident. “Hey, hey, sir you can't get up now okay, you're just recovering from a coma, you have to regain yourself first.”Wait, what? A coma? What coma? When was that? “Sorry, did I hear you say a coma?” I asked.“Yes sir, a coma”“You were rushed in during the early hours of the morning three days ago, you were bleeding all over your leg which, I think, was a result of a gunshot,” she replied“What?” I've been here for three days? What happened? How did I get here? Right, Adina, what happened in her struggle with Sophie? I had so many questions running through my head and because of this, I felt a sharp pain.“Don't stress too much sir, all you need right now is rest, the doctor will join you any minute” the nurse said about to leave“Umm, please. How was I brought in here?” I asked.“Well, an ambul
Adina’s POV“WHERE'S SHE!!!”He screamed with a loud voice with rage evident on his face.“Ahhh!!” I also screamed in shock and fear.“Ma’am! “Ma’am?”“Ahhh!! No, no no.”“Ma’am.”I woke up out of fear. I took a brief look at my surroundings and for some reason I'm now in the train station. Wait, was that a dream? “Ma'am, we're here.” a man said which I presumed was the driver, but he wasn't talking or even answering my cries a while ago. Or was it really a dream? I thought. Well, thank goodness that it was, I quickly got down from the car and headed straight to the station to get a ticket. Called Trent on the way to thank him, I was about to enter the train heading to see my beautiful daughter when all of a sudden the thought of Tyson hit me. He’s been really trying all he could to get us back together, at least if not for anything, for my little girl. “You shouldn’t starve her from her father’s love, not that he’s dead or lost.” a voice echoed in my head. I took a pause in my tr
Tyson’s POV “LEAVE.” I yelled with every single strength left in me.”“Ty…” she called out again“One more word from you, Sophie, you’d know what I’m capable of.”“You know what, fuck you Tyson.” She said bringing out a gun from the bedside drawer. “You think this is how it’s going to end huh, you think I’d just let you go Scott free, huh? Haven’t you ruined my life enough? The greatest mistake I ever did wrong was to love you Tyson, and you chose to pay me this way?”“Sophie….”“Shut the fuck up, Tye!!!” She screamed.“Oh you’re surprised? Guess the table just took a U-turn Tye. If I can’t have you, then no one can.”“Sophie, please don’t do this.”“Oh really? So you do have a mouth to plead, huh? Oh Tyson, how I’m not going to miss your cute face at all.” She said with a smirk on her face.“Sophie please, don’t kill me, please I’m begging.”“Hahaha, kill you? Oh, Tyson, are you really that dumb? I’m not killing you. Look around you, Tyson. Every single thing going on right now has
