The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 32: I am picking you two up tomorrow
"Oh, thank God, she is truly awake," Chantel said with an emotional smile fooling Cassandra and Ruth but not Mrs Brown who already knew her motive. She only wanted to understand what had made her so evil. Why are the two children so different or is character hereditary? Chantel sat down on the sofa and looked around wondering how her sis had managed to afford such a luxurious ward. "Sis, can I talk to you outside?" Chantel asked trying to ensure Ruth did not have anyone supporting her financially "Sorry, I didn't want to ask in front of everyone just in case it would come out wrong," she said once they were outside "That is fine. What do you want to talk about?" Ruth asked "How are we paying for this ward? It looks very expensive?" she asked with curiosity evident on her face."The hospital management moved her there as compensation for the wrong medication that made her slip into a coma," Ruth said not ready to tell Chantel about Nick and all he was doing"Really? They did?" she

Mrs Brown smiled and got down from the bed. She picked up Ruth's bag. Ruth realized immediately she wanted to write. She took the bag from her Mum and fetched her small notebook and pen from the bag and gave it to her. Mrs Brown wrote inside the book and gave it to Ruth and she read what her mother had written. Call your husband to come for us. I will explain things to my friend. Ruth smiled and called Nick. "We are ready," she said"Good girl, I am already here," he replied"What!" Ruth exclaimed.The door to the ward slowly opened drawing Ruth and Mrs Brown's attention to the door. Nick's face came into clear view. He smiled and walked towards Mrs Brown who was back sitting on the bed. He greeted her with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Ruth remained rooted to her spot close to the sofa unable to react. Nick turned to look at her and smiled"Are you going to stand there all day or welcome me with a hug?" he asked and opened his arms for a hugRuth snapped out of her moment, walked

She hugged her and relaxed in her arms. Her mother wrapped her arms around her and could feel so many emotions packed up inside her. She was tensed, nervous, and scared. She was shaking like a leaf. Mrs Brown rubbed her daughter's back gently trying to calm her down Later that day, Ruth called Cassandra and told her not to come to the hospital the next. She went further to tell her, her mother will explain to which she acknowledged awaiting a message from Mrs Brown her friend. Katherine knocked on their door gently and Ruth answered. "Supper is ready," she announced and Ruth thanked her before going back inside to help her mother. They all came downstairs and Katherine led them to the dining area. Nick was already seated. Ruth helped her mother to a seat and sat next to her. Nick looked at her and frowned as she was sitting far away from him but he said nothing. The dishes were soon served by a lady. "There are other people in this house?" Ruth thought but seeing how the lady was
The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 35: Expectation Versus Reality
They were talking about a shopping spree and Mrs Hayford mentioned some places they could visit. Ruth frowned and stretched her neck to look through the open window "Wait, that doesn't look like Chantel is a house help," Ruth thought seeing the interaction between the two, Mrs Hayford and Chantel. "Excuse ma'am, are you looking for someone?" came the voice of a lady in uniform. Ruth looked at the lady in uniform briefly and back at Chantel through the window and walked towards the lady finding a perfect excuse to give for her action. "I saw a job advertised in the newspaper and wanted to find out if the vacancy is still available. I tried calling but no one answered," Ruth said with a smile "Oh, it is not this house. The apartment is three blocks away from here down the street," the lady replied "Thank you, ma'am, but do need workers here," Ruth asked acting like she is thinking of the lady as the owner "Oh, I am a worker here. The madam herself is inside. She currently not e
The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 36: Personal Pleasure
Ruth looked in the direction of the bathroom whose door closed gently as he entered and wondered if his 'Okay' meant he had heard her. "This is not the kind of life she had anticipated when she agreed to marry him," she thought still looking at the closed bathroom door. She exited the room, went downstairs and entered the balcony. She sat on the chair and admired the light-up city. It was amazing looking at the city in the night from where she sits yet it could not give Ruth a reason to smile. She had watched movies, read stories and created an idea of what marriage looks like or should look like but that is not at all what she has. Her parents had their difference but aside from Chantel putting up some odd behaviours sometimes, making her seem like a weirdo, they were a happy family. Well, they were till misfortune hit them Ruth was sitting on the balcony with all these thoughts running through her head. She didn't realize Katherine had entered the balcony and was looking at her.
The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 37: Restoration
What was supposed to be a happy married life for Ruth has become a nightmare she could not wake up from. She could not talk to Chantel about it like she will usually do with things that bothered her. She warned her about Nick and never liked him in the first place. Ruth lay on the bed alone in deep thought. She had agreed to marry him because she love him and also she knew he could help with her mother's health as she was not working due to her current state but the man she is married to is not the Nick she once knew. 'You turned me into this,' she repeated the statement in her mind and knew this statement is linked to whatever happened at the promo which she has no recollection of after taking the drink given to her and Damien at the entrance. Despite how he is treating her, she still loves him and blames herself for what he is now. "If I turned him into what he is, I can turn him back to what he was," she concluded in her heart and shut her eyes to sleep but still could not. The

Her mother's health was her first priority when she got her mind to think straight. Now next was to find out the problem with Chantel who to her looks like a habitual liar. "How about Katherine, will you send her away too," she asked unfazed "I have my reasons for keeping her around," he replied and walked towards the closet and grabbed his sleepwear"I also have a reason I want my mum here. She needs me too," she replied "Okay, I am moving her up to the apartment above ours," he said "Alone?" Ruth questioned"No, she will have some servants there with her and you can go see her. It is just a staircase away," he said and Ruth said nothing "Good, so you move her there tomorrow," he said and g

Nick was way ahead of us," She narrated and Chantel covered her mouth shocked "The rest of the story you know. I am here and so are you," she added and Chantel sat down next to her "So what are we going to do?" she asked "The leader mentioned to me on our way here that, he has a secret connection with some drug lord and he will get us out of here," she said "Do you believe him?"

The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 75: Shocking News
Meanwhile, Chantel who had not been herself following the demise of her sister was now heading home after staying in the office for a while after closing. She packed the car in the garage and stepped out after a while heading for the main door. The servant opened the front door when they heard the car drive in. "Welcome home Ms Chantel," she greeted and Chantel just waved her hand in the air dropping the keys on the counter next to the door. She quickly changed her shoes to something more comfortable and the servant took them away to clean them. She headed straight for her bedroom. After taking a shower she just jumped into bed and closed her eyes. Meanwhile, at the station, Mrs Hayford was now awake and the leader of the criminal group together with his three men were all behind bars.

He read and turned to Nick "The police are here," he said but before he could return his focus to the door, he was shot in the shoulder and the stomach, but Nick shot the man that had entered. "Boss, we are surrounded, the police are here," reported one of the men to the leader "What should we do?" he asked He said nothing but removed from his breast pocket what looks like a phone and flipped the pad open. The other men watched him as he dialled some numbers on the device and next, they heard explosions accompanied by screams. "Get everyone, out there and call the rest to come in," he ordered "I will take care of Nick and his friends, they are wounded right?" he asked and proceeded with the men to find Nick "Yes boss," the man replied and pulled out his phone to make a call as he followed his boss together with four other armed men to search for Nick and his friends. All this while, Mrs Brown was still locked up where Gustave kept her and Mrs Hayford was also still sleeping
The Twins with Different Parents Chapter 73: The Battle
"I don't intend to let you go. I will only be happy when I send you away to join your husband," she said and pulled a gun but before she could shoot her, someone shot her neck with something. She felt the back of her neck and pulled what looks like a dart and she fell to the ground. "Sssh, I am here to help," came the voice of a man in a mask. "I have to take you to somewhere safe," he said "Okay," Mrs Brown responded unable to recognize who her saviour is due to the mask he was wearing but the voice was very familiar. The man sneaked her out of the room and put her in another room. "Stay here quietly and whatever happens, don't scream and don't make a sound. I will come for you," he said and Mrs Brown nodded. She could not walk anyway and without her wheelchair, how far can she run was the question. She sat on the floor quietly as instructed by the man. She heard the door being locked but she remained silent as instructed. Even though she could not tell, the man that had re

"Looks like you have a lot of settlement to do Mr Hugo or should I say, Nicholas Brown;" the leader said and Nick only looked at him "Where is my family and what have you done with them?" he asked again "There are breathing. I can assure you of that. Now let's make this simple. I have all the documents on every property your parents owned. Some I am sure you didn't even know about. All you have to do is simple. Sign everything over to me," he said and gave him a document. Nick took the document from his hand looking at the man pointing a gun at him. He went through them. He did know of some of the properties mentioned including his company. There were some hotels and Estates his parent owned that he didn't know about. He looked through the document and immediately found out the reason why his parents were killed. Aside from the fact that his parents acquire so much wealth making them the 6th richest in the world.

He went to the bedroom and ready saw a note. [If you want to see your family again, come to this address. Don't do anything funny, we are watching you] He read and his heart skipped multiple beats. He paced up and down the room thinking of what to do. "Who has my family, Mrs Hayford or the tugs that took my parents?" he thought and paced up and down the room. He took the clothes he was wearing off. He took a quick shower to remove the tunnel smell from himself. He put on fresh clothes and without combing his hair, he sent a message to Gustave. [I just got back and everyone is gone. All I have is a note asking me to come to an address] He typed and sent it to Gustave. He grabbed another jacket with a hoodie and went out of the house in Gustave's car. He rolled up the windows so no one will see him. He went off the main road towards the direction of the location he had on the paper. After driving for half an hour, he found himself on an untarred road heading towards a place that

He tossed a few ideas around, unable to come up with anything, he left for the underground apartment. He locked the main entrance door and put the surveillance camera on and ensured he could see every part of the house on his phone. He headed for the underground apartment.
