He rested his back on the door as he clenched his fists, he didn’t want them to know he was there but then, he was cracking, slowly but surely.Why was seeing and knowing that Kathryn and Daniel were together hurting him so much? Wasn’t this just a deal? He placed his ears to the door again as he continued to listen and that was when he heard Kathryn’s pants in the room.He was trying so hard to stop the tears from streaming down his cheeks but then, he just couldn’t. He was far too broken for it. He ran his hands through his hair, he couldn’t win the bet today but one thing was for sure, he would get revenge on Daniel for this.He wiped his tears slowly, Kathryn had being taken away by Daniel had she not? He would make sure his brother paid for this.All through the night, as he sat in his bed, waiting for sleep to take over, he just couldn’t bring himself to fall asleep as all that came to mind was just that horrible sight of Kathryn begging Daniel to make love to her and then kis
He stared at his phone, a smile on his face as he stared at Daniel who was walking away from him. “We were never meant to be brothers Daniel and I’ll make sure I ruin you for being my brother. I didn’t win the challenge, I accept but then, I’m goin to win this, no matter what” he told himself with a smile as he ran his hands through his hair with a mischievous smile on his face. Apparently, an idea had come to mind. He went back to the dining table as he ate and as he ate, he took out his phone and placed a call to someone. “Available today?” He asked as he continued to munch on his food while he stared at Daniel who walked out of the house with a smile on his face.“Boss, you’ve never called me in so long. Why do you call today?” The person at the other end of the call asked and he rolled his eyes.“Just answer the goddamn question, are you available today?” He could hear the man at the other end of the call sigh softly before answering, “yes, I am available “Receiving this p
They’d had enough, they wouldn’t listen to these reporters anymore as it was obvious all they wanted was just hot headlines.“Come Kathryn, let’s go. Don’t listen to them” he told her and as they were walking forward, a phone was suddenly placed in front of them and they stared in shock at the video that was now playing on the screen.They immediately recognized that video as it was not fake and it was the same location as the place they had gotten stuck the last time they left town. It showed them playing under the rain and without the proper knowledge, one would think they were playing romantically. Kathryn swallowed as she stared at the video, it also showed them finally going into the car and then, it was paused.“Take a look at the timing, this was around midnight. What is a boss and his assistant doing in a place like this, at this time, playing under the rain?” One of the reporters asked and Daniel clenched his fists hard. The video continued and at this time, it was already
He moved slowly as his head ached him badly, he couldn’t seem to recall anything that happened till the memory of those reporters pulling up in front of them, flashing their cameras at them and saying those nasty things to them came to mind.He could now recall being hit on the head and Kathryn being taken away and that was when his eyes came open immediately and he screamed, “Kathryn!”He looked around, where was he? He could have sworn that when he lost consciousness, he was outside his office so how was he suddenly here? Holding on to his head, he got off the bed as he walked to the door and seeing a particular mark on the door, he immediately knew where he was. His house!He frowned, there was only one person who could have done this, Louis.At the thought of Louis, he clenched his fists hard, he hated that brother of his and for daring to involve Kathryn in their fight, he would make sure Louis paid, dearly. He tried opening the door and got even angrier when he realized the d
Daniel stared at Louis, it was no news that the mere sight of Louis was enough to get him angered but this time, he was even more furious than he had ever being.Loosening his grip on Louis’ shirt, his hand made his way to Louis’ neck as he held on to it, so firmly that his brother started to choke. Louis wasn’t going to give up so easily either and he held on to Daniel’s neck too, both brothers choking themselves. Even though they were hurting each other, Louis had to admit that Daniel had the upper hand here because he was suffering more here. “Daniel, it’s just a little deal, you just have to agree” he said as he coughed but then Daniel, he didn’t even flinch.It was almost like Louis was giving him a massage and Louis hated that fact. “In your dreams” Daniel said and before Louis knew it, using his second hand, Daniel removed Louis’ hand from his neck as he started to bend it while Louis stared in pain as he struggled to get free.“D..Daniel?” He called as his brother slowly
He was speaking to her but it just seemed like she wasn’t even where she was. She stared at him, shocked.“You didn’t come to help me?” She asked as she stared at him.Suddenly, all the energy in her that she had being using to try and get free from the chair disappeared. She couldn’t believe this and he burst into laughter as he stared at her, raising her to look at him. “Would I save you when I already kidnapped you?” He asked her and she blinked, she was Kathryn Rivera, she wasn’t supposed to be seen crying so why was she?He was just a friend so why did betrayal hurt this much? She had suddenly regained her strength and she started struggling to get free. “How could you even do this? I thought we were friends for goodness sake” she yelled as she continued to try and get free but then he only burst out into more laughter as he used his hand to squeeze her face, moving closer to her.“What do you think? We would be friends for so long and I wouldn’t want to touch you?” He asked
She put her left arm on her neck where she’d being injected as she slowly moved around on the bed. She was weak, the whole place seemed blurred and worst of all, she couldn’t seem to move.“Daniel” she called out softly as she tried hard to keep her eyes open and that was when she felt a hand on her body. She weakly tried to keep her eyes open and that was when she saw who it was, it was an unclad Louis!She stared at him in shock as she tried to push him off but it didn’t matter how hard she tried, he was just too strong for her. She stared at him, she had to admit that he had abs and a wonderful figure so why was he doing this? Why was someone as handsome as himself doing this to her?“Please stop this” she told him as she tried to push him away but he just wouldn’t listen, he wanted her and nothing was going to change that.He smiled to himself slightly as he tucked her hair behind her ear before leaving a little peck on her forehead. “Don’t fight it Kathryn, let me help you”
She looked at him as she covered her mouth in shock. She was shocked, not only because he had just killed someone but because she had just slapped him.“How could you? He was your brother for goodness sake!” She yelled as she stared at him and he ran his fingers through his hair.“My brother?” He let out a sarcastic laughter as he stared at her. “I wish he was. This was the man who almost assaulted you Kathryn and…..” she put her hand in the air, indicating she didn’t want him to continue anymore.“I don’t want to listen to anything you have to say. Just stay away from me, please.” She told him as she walked away.“Kathryn “ he called slightly as he watched her walk away.He clenched his fists, how could she not see that whatever he had done, he had done for her? Louis had done far worse than this in the past and maybe this was the best time to make him pay, he had to pay for it.. She swallowed as she stared at the dead body that lay on the floor. He was bleeding badly and it
“Kathryn, are you sure you can do this? You’ve waited two years to see him, all this time, all you wanted is to have a happy life with him and Kathy, why are you leaving now? I have no problems if you’re happy, but Kathryn, think about yourself for once. You’re also a human.” Tanya said as they sat in the waiting area, waiting for their time of flight.“Mum, don’t worry about me, I’m very happy. Does it look like I’m sad? This is what we need. At least now, we know everything is fine. I know that he has forgiven me, Kathy is better now too. What else could we want?” She asked, and Tanya tucked her hair behind her ear as she smiled at Kathryn.“Your happiness. Kathryn, for two years, all you’ve being focused on is making us happy, me and Kathy, and I don’t think Kathy wants to be a burden on you forever.” Tanya said, and Kathryn chuckled.“Kathy and you will never be a burden to me because you two are very important to me.” She said, and Kathy raised her head from Kathryn’s laps as she
Days had passed since the surgery, and both Daniel and Kathy seemed to be doing well. More than anyone, Kathryn was happy, and that was because her daughter was better now, she wouldn’t have go through the same pain that her sister had gone through, and she also wouldn’t have to be separated from her.On the other hand, she was also very happy that after two years, she was finally forgiven by Daniel. It seemed like her life was falling into place, until one day, while she was busy with work, Kathy walked up to her.“Momma, are you busy?” She asked her, and Kathryn chuckled as she pulled her closer to herself.“Tell me, when have I ever being too busy for you?” She asked as she tucked her hair behind her ear, and Kathy chuckled as she stared at her.“I’m so sorry, momma, but I just have a quick question to ask.” She said, and Kathryn stared at her, tears streaming down her cheeks.She slowly wiped the tears that were now forming in her daughter’s eyes as she stared at her. “Kath, are y
“They found the both of you?” Daniel asked, shocked, but she chuckled.“No, it was some women. They had heard her screams while she delivered and they decided to help us, but then, after everything that had happened, I didn’t think I could trust anyone. I didn’t think I would be able to let those women help me, but then, Elma, she had a good heart, and she didn’t want the baby to die. She was already bleeding badly, and we had no choice but to go with the women.”“Don’t tell me they were part of the…”“No, they weren’t, but I never got to see my sister again.” She said as she smiled weakly, and he furrowed his eyebrows.“What happened to her?”.“Elma, you’ve got a beautiful baby here, she’s so cute.” Kathryn told her sister who was barely awake.Elma smiled weakly as she took a sixteen year old Kathryn’s hand in hers, rubbing it slowly as she smiled weakly. “She’s not my baby, Katrina. She’s yours.” She said, and Kathryn’s eyes widened in shock as she stared at her.“My baby? What do
His eyes widened in shock as he stared at her. “That’s a lie, you’re joking.” He told her, and she shook her head as she stared at him.“I’m not. My sister was already nine at the time, and it felt like her condition was just getting worse. Okay, you’re not my real parents, where are my real parents? I used to ask them, but no one answered me, they just kept making our lives a living nightmare, and looking at Elma, the sister who saved me many times, she was getting worse. It was like she could barely even talk, and that was when I made a decision, I needed to take my sister away from there.” She told him as she wiped her tears; and he stared at her.“Weren’t you just seven?” He asked her, and she nodded as she chuckled.“I was just seven, but I also couldn’t stand seeing my sister who’d given me life die slowly. We had nowhere to go, but one thing was certain: we couldn’t keep staying at that house. For months, we were on the run, barely surviving because we didn’t have any money or
She took in a deep inhale as she closed her eyes. “For years, I’ve kept this story to myself. I’ve never shared it with anyone but mum. It hurts me whenever I remember it, but maybe it’s time I said it because how would I heal when I know I still haven’t recovered from the past?” She spoke as she wiped her tears, and he stared at her.“What happened twenty years ago?” He asked her, and she closed her eyes as more tears streamed down her cheeks.“I was born to a very poor family, my parents barely owned anything, and my mother, she was a woman who worked very hard to provide for all of us. She made sure that the four of us, me, her, my dad, and my elder sister, Elma didn’t lack anything. She was a very busy woman, and since she had to work so much for her to fend for our needs, she was never home. She kept us in the custody of our father who didn’t have a job. His only job was to take care of us since she was the one doing all the work, but he couldn’t do that, and instead of actually
Seconds, minutes, and even hours had passed, and the light in the operating theatre still hadn’t gone off. Tanya held on to Kathryn as she patted her hair.“It’s going to be fine, the both of them will be fine.” She told her as she handed her a glass of water. “Here, have this, you haven’t eaten all day.” She told her, but she shook her head.“No mum. I don’t want to have it. Kathy and Daniel haven’t eaten all day too. Mum, my daughter is in there, and I don’t know how everything is going. Until I know they’re alright, I won’t be able to rest easy.” She said as tears streamed down her cheeks, and Tanya smiled as she pulled her to herself.“I’m telling you, everything is going to be fine, and trust me, Kathryn. Your life is going to get better from now on. I promise you.” She said, and Kathryn embraced her tightly.“I hope so, mum. I really do.” She said as tears streamed down her cheeks.While she embraced her mum, tears streaming down her cheeks, the lights in the operating theatre s
She wiped her tears as she shook her head, staring at him, shocked. “You? How did you know about…”“The day you left the meeting, I followed you. I have being keeping tabs on everything you’ve being doing, and the other day, I had myself tested to see if I was a match for her, and turns out, I was.” He told her, and she stared at him, shocked.“You’re willing to donate a kidney to her even after everything that I did to you?” She asked him, and he smiled as he moved closer to her.“I know the truth now, Kathryn. I know that whatever you did, you didn’t do it for money like I thought you had. You did it because you were a mother. You did it because you wanted to save your child.” He told her as he took her hand in his.The tears she was trying hide to fight in streamed down her cheeks more freely. “Daniel, I’m sorry, and I swear, for the rest of my life, I’ll be grateful to you for saving Kathryn. I’ll make it up to you, I…” he shook his head.“Kathryn, you might not have being the one
She rolled her eyes as she turned on the bed. “What see you doing here, Daniel? Didn’t I already say I’d get your files for you? Didn’t I tell you that my mum would….” Before she could even finish speaking, he cut her off.“We both know she’s not your birth mother, Kathryn, so stop…”“She doesn’t have to be the one who birthed me before she’s my mum. If she gave me life, if she stood by me and gave me a listening ear when no one else did, she’s more than worthy to be my mum. Daniel, I need to rest. Please leave.” She told him, and he chuckled.“For weeks, you’ve been doing your best to try and talk to me. You’ve being putting up with everything I’ve done to you, and now that I’m actually willing to listen to you, you don’t want to talk to me? How ironic.” He said, and at that moment, she could feel the tears start to well up in her eyes.She took in a deep inhale as she stared at him. “It’s like you said, Daniel. I’ve been throwing myself at you for weeks, but you didn’t listen, and n
“Daniel, relax. It’s not what you think. I…” before she could even finish speaking, he grabbed her by the hair as he stared at her.“How many more secrets are you going to keep from me, Kathryn? Tell me, how much more are you going to keep shocking me? How much more are you going to keep reminding me that I don’t seem to know anything about you? Just show me your true color, Kathryn. Stop being a camellion and show me the real you.” He told her, and she shook her head.“Daniel, at least listen to me, let me explain. I…”“Come on, explain. I want to hear everything. Maybe it’s time that I came to know the truth because I’m tired, I’m tired of getting hurt over and over again, because for some reason, I find out that I know nothing about the woman I love.” He told her, and tears started to stream down her cheeks on hearing him say those words to her.“So you still love me Afterall. Daniel, you…” he raised his hand, preventing her from completing her statements.“Let’s not even get start
