"That was close".Charles said, as he held on to his chest and moved down slowly, with his back on the wall.If she had seen him, she would have thought he was stalking her or something of that nature.He had stood by the window, just looking out, when he saw her leaving the hotel.Then she stood discussing with Mrs Chioma.They talked for a really long time."What could they have been discussing for that long a time?He asked, as when she is about to, she turned back to look directly at him, as if she knew he had been standing there.He started feeling scared of her.When she turned back, he almost fell to the ground, out of fear, when the not before, he had been bold to pull her into his arms.Maybe he needs to leave Browny so that he can think straight.But she has left the hotel, her presence or absence should no longer bother him, but it somehow does.The only way to get the crying girl out of his mind, is by getting to talk with her. Again.He too got dressed, and left for his h
He was driving so fast, that he is sure, if he doesn't take care, he might get in an accident himself.His heart was racing, as if he had known her for a long time.What is he going to tell her, when he get there?Why is he even after her, when she must be surrounded by her family?His confused thought, should have discouraged him from going, but his heart would not let him.He feels like he owes her something, and he is supposed to be there for her.It was when he approached the hospital, that he started slowing down, as if all the zeal he had driven the car with, is suddenly unsure.He found his guard just by the other side.He was shocked to find his boss alone outside his house, by such an hour, without a guard."Sir, you came out alone?Was the question he asked, but Charles wanted to know the best way to get into the hospital, without embarrassing himself."Where is she?He ignored his earlier question, and asked him.The guard just pointed, as he too, doesn't really know, the p
Charles gently went back to the room, he was unnoticed, for he just stood by the door, watching the two.He decided, that it was best, he left the hospital, but as he made to leave, he heard the woman, who had completely ignored him ask."I suspected, she was going to a man's house, but I just allowed her, I should have stopped her, I drove my daughter to this".Charles wasn't sure, of what she was talking about, so he made to leave again, when he felt her behind him.Are you the man she was with last night?Charles, didn't know what to answer.They had been together, earlier this morning, so she wasn't really with him, she came on her own, but his only issue with everything is that, she had been crying in his dream, and when he met her, she was still crying.The woman was waiting for him to answer, when it seem as though, he was taking too long, she hit him on the chest.Did you break my daughter's heart, and led her to this?She asked, which made Charles, even more confused, he know
Rebecca didn't know how to react, having the man of her dreams hold her hands, in such a way, she just looked away, blushing.Charles opened her hand, and placed a card into it."I am getting married soon, and I would love for you and your friend, to plan it all.Call me, so that we discuss other things".He walked away immediately, before her mother, would say something else.When he was out, Rebecca asked."Am I dreaming?Josh was so excited, he is the planner, while she is the photographer, but they are both planners, for they usually work together."No you are not dreaming sweetheart, you just landed us a million naira contract, and we are going to be so rich, we would get a bigger outlet, more contracts would come, for people would want to get to know us, this could be a real deal".That was not what Rebecca was talking about, she is just shocked, that Charles, was actually in the same space with her.She glared at Josh, to show him that she is still angry, about what happened th
As soon as he left, she fell back into her sober mood.How is she really going to get through with everything? she asked within herself, while she kept looking around her.She grabbed her phone, switched it on, and started scanning through all the messages, from the dating site, just to keep herself busy.It is usually as though, they are waiting for her.Anytime she turns her phone on, they would start calling, to get herself distracted, she decided to take the call.She paused, waiting for the person at the other end to say something first, but the silence between them, seemed unending, then she heard a coarse voice."I can't believe you took the call now, I have been trying endlessly to reach you, but it keeps saying your phone is off".He was sounding as if he is on the run, the way he was breathing, was quite loud."I think you are busy, from the way you are breathing, maybe we can talk later".She tried to discharge him, but he was persistent."No way, I am fine, and I am not do
Charles kept looking at his phone, waiting for her call, he still, haven't been able to explain why he was feeling the way he was acting, but to him, it was like a new addiction, he wanted so much to know, if she accepted his offer, and if she could start work immediately.Even though he is quarrelling with the woman he is supposed to be planning with, he could still be seeing Rebecca, till he finally settles with Sandra.When his phone started ringing, he decided not to jump to it, for fear, that he would be disappointed, for all the calls he had received since he left the hospital, he had been jumping to the phone, but they would either be Sandra trying to apologies for lying to him, about her whereabout or it would be work related. Funny enough, the only person that haven't called is Andre, and he was grateful for it.He allowed the call to end, then he gently stood up, to go get the phone, only to see that it is an unknown number.His heart, started beating fast, that he had to ho
Rebecca was lost in his thought, that she didn't notice the crew member standing by the door, staring at her, with flowers in hand.She could already tell, that Josh had gone to his office to tell them all, and they look as happy, as he had looked, when he explained that, the contract, was going to bring so much to them."Do you know how long we have been standing here?Josh asked, as he ushered Logan in first, while he walked behind him.Stephanie also walked in last, with a broad smile on her face.She is the makeup artist that works with the crew, she never used to smile with Rebecca, but she had not only smiled, she also has a get well card in hand, and she looks too happy, to see her. As if that was not enough, she hugged her."Oh Becca, I am so sorry, that this happened to you, what a drunkard. I know it must be a rich man that almost ran into you, that is how they use to behave". She hugged her again, but when she saw that, everyone was looking at her, she straightened her dres
They gently moved aside, while they waited for her, to attend to the man, that came to see her.Josh have never seen his friend with a man before, and he had forgotten about the dating site, he set up for her, so he just stared at Edison, until Rebecca spoke up."Please come in Edison". She had to welcome him in, else, he may just stand there, for he wasn't sure, if he should come in or not. He was looking at the guys, as if, they were dating her, and he needed to be careful.Josh had to excuse himself from the seat, so that he sears on the single chair, but he looked like he might need them to merge two seats together, for just one sear, won't be enough, for him.Josh was still waiting for his friend, to say something. She have been surprising him, since she left her mother's house, he doesn't know what else, to expect."You look so different from the picture, I think you took the picture years ago".Edison says, and that was when Josh, started to put the pieces together. He is the o
"Do not worry, the doctor have gone out to get the theatre equipment ready, he is going to have to get them here, because he cannot be moving you about". He tells her, while holding her hands tight, but then she started crying."Oh baby, you know how I hate to see you cry, what is the problem? He asked, worried for her."I feel, like something is pushing me". She says, and then she spreads her legs even more wider, and Charles looked, only to see the head of his baby."I think the baby is coming out, let me get the doctor ". She wanted to call him back, to tell him to be her doctor, but he was already gone, it wasn't usual seeing the boss himself act in such a weak manner, but Rebecca, Charles could be any thing, he found the doctor and pulled him by the collar, but before he got to the room, there was a baby already, on her legs. She have given birth to her baby boy."Congratulations, it is a bouncing baby boy". The doctor says. That was nit supposed to be news, because they have bee
With Sandra being gone, there was no point keeping her in the morgue for too long, Charles planned to bury the both of them at the same time, on the same day, so Rebecca and her crew, planned the burial of the two, and it was a very quick one, as every one just came and prayed for them. It was more like the two killed themselves, Charles didn't have to do anything, he only thought good thought for them, yet the both, chose to take their own life.After the burial, Charles and Rebecca concluded every paper work that concerns the new white baby, and took her home, she was named Smarty, and she really did suit the name, for she knows exactly when to cry, when to do everything.Their lives were going well, and there was no complain.Rebecca was happy to have a child, she could learn how to be a real mum with, since her baby was on the way.Logan and Josh have not been given the visa they have been seeking for, because the agency said they will put them on probation for at least a year, b
Charles stared disgustedly at her, but looked lovingly at the baby. He had been fighting to bring forth Andre's baby, he had plans for that child, he had promised himself to support the child and make sure he knew no suffer, but looking at another man's baby, he didn't know what to think, but since it was something he had planned to do, he would still do it, he took care of the bills, and a private nurse was assigned to take care of Sandra, till she will be strong enough to go home. He also told them that if they needed anything, they should call on him or his wife, because he wasn't going to come back again to the hospital.After that, he left, and went home with his wife. It wasn't a good time to speak with him about his new attitude, but Rebecca didn't like the silence between them."What is going on? He asked finally, after seeing that she was giving him the angry look."I never knew you would ask me that, but I should actually be asking you. What is going on love? He didn't know
Months have gone by since Rebecca started working with the Peterson and also handling her personal business and they kept having different persons coming to apply, wanting to work with them, but they never miss to give any new comer the rules and regulations and anyone trying to be smart with them, is shown the way out.For those who are upright, they find Rebecca very loving and understanding, but for those who have ulterior motives, they would always have issues with her, there by making her have as much enemies, as she have friends.She was given different names by different people.Some even said she should go and relax and allow them work the way they would love to, but there was no space for any bad act.President Peterson have seen massive increase and change in his chain of branches all over the federation, as Rebecca would always handle each with serious detail scrutiny, but as she advance in her pregnancy, she started feeling a little weak, she could no longer go through the
The news about the death of Andre went viral, the very next day, the world had already heard about the death of Andre.Sandra who was already very heavy with her pregnancy, cried. She didn't even get to see him before he died, she will be. ringing firth her baby soon, and she will be without a father, and though Charles is taking good care of her, she hates him still, she blames him for the death of Andre, and she wishes to get back at Rebecca, if she ever gets to be free from where she is.Andre thought it would be easy for him to just escape, and maybe it would have been easy, but lick was against him.Charles sat on his bed, looking into space, he didn't know what to do, and he surely, didn't know what to say to the people that had called him.Even after all the evil Andre had done to him, all he still had for him were good thought, he wanted him to come out of prison, he wanted him to have a life, maybe he could really do things differently, everyone should be given a second chan
Charles had finalize the transfer of Andre to Akure correctional center, there he might only get to spend five more years, then he could be released on bail, so they would move in the night.Andre was sleeping, when he was called upon, he didn't know why, he had forgotten that stone told him that he would be taken to another centre, because since he said it, nothing have happened, so he thought that the guy didn't know what he was saying, but for him to be called up at night, he fears that maybe it is time, so as he got off the floor, he tapped stone, who woke up immediately, but the officer, didn't give the both of them the chance to speak to each other, he dragged Andre by the neck, and cuffed his hands, before taking him away, he looked back and Stone nodded his head. It was a signal for him to remember everything he had told him for the past month and put them into action, it is even better for him, that they are leaving by night, even though he doesn't know why they should make
The first month of her pregnancy was too much pamper from the Peterson family, and even her friends, which was what she was initially worried about, she had always known that they would want to act in such a way, which was why she didn't want to accept within her, that she was actually pregnant. She dressed up and left for her first visit to the hospital, she wanted to leave alone, but just as always, Charles would not let her, he always wants to go with her, or have his guard go with her.She doesn't feel right allowing the guard go everywhere with her, she feels the guy should also have his own life too, but whenever she tells him to take the day off, he would tell her that he never signed to take any day off.She thought of sneaking out of the house, she didn't tell him, she didn't rind her husband that the date given to her had already reached, though they had both been together the previous day, she still didn't tell him, she have over heard him say he was going to the prison to
Charles didn't mind that there were still crowd outside, and though he took the back turn, he knew people would still see him. He knew paparazzi's wouldn't mind, they would always want to find a way to get even inti the private room to know what is wrong with her, so they will be the first to post it, but as soon as he got outside, there was a different car waiting for him, he drove out, while his parents came in another, and the party attendants, didn't even notice a thing, unless one or two persons, that must have seen him leave with her in his arms through the backdoor.He rushed in, still with Rebecca on her arms, and she was taken in, as soon as her back landed on the soft bed, she opened her eyes."What? She asked, but already, someone was attending to her. The doctor injected her, and she closed her eyes, then he took her blood samples, and ran a series of test on her, before the rest of the family member got to the hospital, and they all started waiting patiently for the docto
Upon reaching the venue, there were already a massive crowd waiting for them, it was more like a red carpet, with the press everywhere, Rebecca glared at her husband and shook her head."Do you always have to over do things? "I didn't invite them I swear". He didn't have to swear to her, she knows, that since being the wife of a billionaire, her life would no longer belong to her, it now belongs to every one."I understand dear. You invite one person, and the entire world hears of it. We are just going to make our announcement, and we are out of here". She says, before they signaled to Douglas to open the door, which he did, and the camera clicks on their faces almost blinded her eyes.Charles must have been used to such an event, for he only walked confidently, with one hand in his pocket, while he held his wife with the other.They were immediately welcomed by the crowd."This is a big day, and we are going to start immediately, as our host for today have just arrived". Josh says.
