All missions accomplished, Naevia decides to take a long warm bath to wash off the blood stains on her body and also feel relaxed.She laid in the bathtub with the warm water all over her. She shut her eyes and sighed out in relief.She recurred Zane's words to her before she entered the bathroom to have her bath. He promised her a nice dinner date tonight, just the two of them.Naevia missed having dinner with Zane. She felt delighted when he told her about it."We'll use this opportunity to celebrate your success in every mission you embarked on," Zane had said to Naevia, caressing her face with his fingers.Naevia felt her body shiver while reciting how Zane touched her. She really loved the way he steals her heart at every chance he gets.She couldn't wait to have this special dinner with her charming and hit husband. Naevia soaked herself more for some time, until she was fully satisfied.She stepped out of the bathroom and went to rest a little on the bed, preparing for her dinn
"She's better now. We were able to get the poison out of her system," the Doctor shared with Zane.Zane felt glad to hear this. His Naevia was saved. "Can I see her?" He requested. The doctor answered, "Yes, but after she's been moved to a special room."Zane doesn't mind. He wanted to see Naevia badly. The door of the emergency room opened. Zane looked and saw the nurses moving Naevia out from the room on a stretcher."Naevia!" Zane called out, moving closer to the nurses that stopped for him to see his wife. Naevia had her eyes closed. But when she heard Zane's voice, she opened them.Zane was happy when he saw her eyes open. Naevia smiled at Zane and held his hand."You'll be fine okay?" He assured her. Naevia nodded lightly. The nurses moved the stretcher ahead, allowing Zane and Naevia hand to separate.Zane felt his heart aching, seeing Naevia in that condition. Kelvin moved closer to Zane and said, "Thank goodness the poison was taken out of her. She'll be fine."Zane nodded br
Back at the hospital, a nurse is standing beside Naevia in the room they kept her in. She's going through the drip and other things.Naevia laid on the bed with her eyes closed. Her entire body system was weak due to the poisoning.The doctor had also told her what happened when he visited her to see how she was doing. She has to make inquiries.The doctor had told her she'll be fine in no time and ready to go home healthy and strong like always.As the nurse kept checking her, Naevia wondered who could have poisoned her. "It must be someone from the mansion," she believed in her heart."It's just like those men I killed then. The ones that tried to kill Zane then. I'm sure their members decided to take me out. So much for having guards and maids," she thought within herself.Naevia opened her eyes slowly to look around from where she laid. She sees the nurse attending to her drip.The nurse was already done. She noticed Naevia's eyes opened and looked at her. "How are you feeling Mam
Naevia gazed at this jewelry. She stared at the ring, pondering hard on it. "This ring. Where have I seen it? It's very familiar, but where?" She wondered.She got up from the ground and went back to the bed. The needle inserted into her hand was already removed while battling with the mysterious fellow.She sat on the bed, looking at the ring. She was sure that she had seen the ring somewhere before, but she wasn't sure of where exactly."This ring fell from that man. I've seen this ring before, but I just don't know where. Though, I may not remember now, but I'll surely find out," she assured herself.She held the ring closely to herself, dragging her weak body into the bed properly. Lifting her legs off the ground and straight on the bed..Zane, on the other hand, went out to get something to eat. He met Kelvin close to the car, holding a take out.He walks up to him and is surprised to see Kelvin giving him the takeout. "I had to get to this when you went in. I had a feeling you'
Towards the evening, Zane took it upon himself to take care of Naevia without the help of any of his maids.After what happened to his wife, he didn't want to take the risk of allowing any form of danger to come his beloved Naevia's way.Zane had received some helpful tips from the doctor in the hospital, on how to take care of Naevia and help her get better.While Naevia was alone in the room, Zane seized that opportunity to go to the market himself and buy everything he'll need to help Naevia get better.He had placed Kelvin in charge to watch over Naevia's room and make sure no one went in to meet her, unless she sent for them.He bought so many fruits, vegetables and other healthy food for Naevia. He got home late due to the traffic. But he didn't care.He arrived towards the evening and made his way to the kitchen with the things. When he got there, he met the maids in charge of cooking there.Zane requested for the utensils needed there. He took it upon himself to prepare dinner
CHAPTER 64The next morning, Naevia woke up looking weak. She noticed her head laying down on the bed.She recurred sitting up last night and was sure she fell asleep in that position. But the posture she was in doesn't look like she slid down. It's more like she was carried and placed like that.Curious, Naevia lifted her head up to look at the side where she was and rested in the night. She looked down and noticed Zane's lap underneath her.Naevia gasped and gazed up. She found Zane sleeping while sitting up on the bed. She realized Zane had placed her in that position.She wondered why, but still found what he did sweet. Still feeling weak, Naevia lifted herself off Zane's lap.Her movement woke the tired Mafia boss. He opened his eyes and found Naevia trying to sit up."Be careful," he cautioned her. Helping her up and placing her right beside him. Naevia felt better when she sat up beside her husband."Thank you," she appreciated Zane. Facing his direction. She sees Zane taking h
Naevia went through all her beautiful gifts before retiring to bed again. The drug in her system still had its effect going.Zane left her and went to see if the maids were done preparing the soup he asked them to. He wanted Naevia to take it before going to sleep again.On getting there, he met the maids in the kitchen, washing the dishes and juicing the pineapple for Naevia.His eyes landed on the stove and he saw a pot on it. Pleased, he walked in to check out the soup.The maids heard his footsteps and turned over to look. Their hearts skipped when they saw Zane. They didn't know he was already in the kitchen."For a second, I thought you two had abandoned what I sent you to do," Zane said, letting them know what's in his mind."We'll never do such sir. The soup is almost ready. We'll bring it to Mrs Ash, along with her juice," the maids said to him.Zane listened. He stepped away from the stove and headed out of the kitchen and back to the room to stay with Naevia.Once the soup
On hearing Naevia's demand for the record book, the fat store owner suddenly laughed out at Naevia."You're funny sweet cheeks. Quit it," he said, thinking Naevia was here to joke around.When Naevia saw this, she glared at this fatso and banged her right hand hard on the counter. Causing the fat man to stop laughing and gaze at her."Don't think I'm joking here. I want to see your record book," she demanded once again.The fat manager was getting fed up with Naevia's attitude. He narrowed his eyes on her and said, "Listen here young lady. I don't give my record book to anyone just like that. It's an important book, and I don't care how beautiful or who you are."Naevia's eyes shimmered at the far man's words. He scoffed at Naevia and told her to leave his store if she's just here for his record book.Naevia said nothing to him. She took two steps back and turned around. Heading for the entrance of the shop.The fat manager stared at her, licking his lips and calling her a feisty lady
Weak, Naevia could hear a voice talking to her. It was a male voice. She felt the touch of this man, caressing her face and resting his head against hers.The feelings she was getting from this man were so familiar. It made Naevia's heart crave for this man.The moment she heard the words 'I love you', Naevia realized who it was."Zane!" She called out. Waking up out of her unconscious state."Mummy is awake!" Dean rejoiced on seeing that Naevia's awake.Naevia heard his voice. She turned to her left side and found Dean with one of her guards. She looked around and realized she's at the hospital. "How did I get here?" She asked, looking confused.Before she could even get her head around what had happened, Dean's arms came on Naevia. The bed is bigger than him, but his arms were able to touch Naevia.Naevia looked at the little one as his eyes came on her, followed by that adorable smile on his face. It immediately warmed Naevia's heart."I knew you'll wake up. How are you feeling Mum
Zane remained close to the window, looking at Naevia. She laid unconscious on the bed, while the nurses attended to her.The Mafia Lord felt his heart weaken at the sight of this. He turned back to look at his trusted guard. But Kelvin was already at the entrance, stepping out.Zane turned his attention back at the window and saw the nurses taking Naevia out of the room.He stepped away from the window then made his way to the entrance. The door comes open and the nurses stepped out with Naevia on the stretcher.Zane moves closer to look at Naevia. Her eyes still closed, her face so weak. He wanted to touch her, but stopped. Instead, he followed the nurses to the special ward meant for Naevia.It's a room for one person, patients with high class. The nurses took Naevia inside and placed her on the bed.Zane followed them. Entering into the room to see Naevia. He sees the nurses covering her up.The nurses allowed Zane to sit beside Naevia, while they stepped out of the room for him to
"Who were you talking to Dean? " He maid asked Dean. Walking up to the little one."It's no one," Dean lied to the maid, still holding the phone.The maid smiles at Dean and takes the phone. She places it back where it belongs and tells Dean that she knows he was trying to réach out to Kelvin."Your Mummy will be fine okay?" She said, patting the little one on the head.Dean nods at her. He watched the maid walk away. Leaving him to watch the TV. Dean feels unhappy. He looked at the phone, wondering if he should pick it up and call back again."Someone might see me," He said, looking worried.Dean held on to his colouring book, looking at the TV. He's not pleased, but had to pray within for a good result.Meanwhile, Kelvin and the guard arrived at the hospital with Naevia. The guard parked at ententrance of the hospital.There was a doctor and a nurse at the entrance when the car came in."What is this ?" The doctor questioned, finding the driver's way of driving rough.Before he coul
Pablo groans, coughing and spitting out blood from his mouth. He tries to rise up to his feet, but is grabbed by Kelvin again.Kelvin dragged Pablo up by holding his neck. The weak and bloodied mouth Pablo, saw this as his chance to attack.He throws a punch at Kelvin, who immediately blocked Pablo's fist from nearing him, before he kicked him right in the stomach.Pablo groans and coughs out more blood. Falling to the ground and squalling in pains."As greedy as you are, you didn't hesitate to sell almost all the expensive lamps and Dean's expensive toys. I don't mind doing this all night Pablo. I'm going to beat all that money out of your system," Kelvin said angrily.He grabs Pablo for a punch, in which Pablo manages to avert, before serving Kelvin his own. But it wasn't that powerful enough to knock Kelvin down.Rubbing his lips from the impact given by Pablo, Kelvin said, glaring at Pablo, while he tried to get his stamina back, "You really are stupid. I was expecting a mercy or
Kelvin tells Dean to go and get changed. Assuring to give him his gifts once he's changed into a new clothes.Dean happily agrees and races for his room in excitement. The maid and Naevia chuckled. The maid bows at Naevia and follows Dean from behind."You're now his favourite, Kelvin. He's been waiting for you to return, so you two can play together," Naevia shared with Kelvin.Kelvin smiles on hearing that. Deep down, Kelvin knows that he's not Dean's favourite, but Zane.Before he travelled for the mission, Kelvin has been dropping Dean off at school. The little one talks about Zane a lot. That's how Kelvin knew that Dean likes Zane more than Pablo."Well that's sweet of him. I know he'll be rushing to get himself ready to have his toys and snacks," Kelvin said, laughing out next.Naevia joins him in laughing. She knows that Kelvin is right about that.While they were talking, Pablo walks pass them without looking their way. Kelvin noticed him. He sees Pablo exiting the mansion and
The days went by as always. Naevia followed Dean to school like always and went to the pack sometimes to get herself on track, while Pablo continued with his secret theft, selling and making his money.When Thursday came, Naevia was at home resting. She didn't feel like going out to do anything. She only went out to drop Dean at school before returning back home to relax. She decided to spend her days at home instead of the park like she has been doing lately.Where she was in the living room, talking to one of the guards concerning a work, Naevia heard Kelvin's voice.She turned her attention towards the entrance and sees Kelvin coming in. He was on the call with someone. Naevia is pleased to see him. She has really missed her loyal and faithful guard.Kelvin gets closer to Naevia and greets her with a smile on his face. Naevia is happy. She asks about Kelvin's trip and the mission. Kelvin let's her know that everything went well."How have you been? You're looking fresh my lady," Ke
Time for lunch, Naevia steps out of her room. Feeling depressed within, she decided to step out of her room. Now that she's trying to get herself on track, Naevia didn't want to let sadness to draw her down.She came down the stairs, making her way to the dinning room. That's when she heard Dean's voice, calling out to her.Naevia looked at the entrance and saw Dean running inside the mansion. The guard who went to get him from school, was following him from behind.Dean rushed towards Naevia and embraced her from the leg due to his height. Naevia smiles at the little one. Patting him on the back. "Welcome my love. How was school today?" She asked."School was fine Mom. I had fun today. My teacher got us all a lovely board to write on. Then we had fun watching the TV. The A, B, C kiddies show," Dean shared with Naevia.Naevia chuckled and said, "That's good dear. Thank goodness that you're home early. It's dinner time.""Hurrah!" Dean rejoiced, hopping around Naevia.Naevia smiled at
After her practice, Naevia decided to return to her room and rest a little while. She had a napkin in her hand, damping off sweats from her forehead. She made her way through the path, and out into the living room. Her eyes falling on the couch and the TV that was on. Pablo wasn't there. She had thought he returned back to the living room, but she doesn't see him here. "My lady. Do you need something?" A maid asked Naevia. Standing beside her. Naevia looked at the maid and said, "Get me something to drink please." "Alright my lady," The maid said, turning around to leave. Naevia immediately asked for Pablo from the maid. She wanted to know if he went back to his room. The maid tells Naevia that Pablo left the mansion with a bag of clothes. "Bag of clothes? For what?" She asked. The maid tells her that she doesn't know. Naevia sends her to go and get her the drink and bring it up to her room. The maid obeys, and leaves Naevia's presence. "With a bag of clothes? Where is he head
Tuning in to another station, Naevia lowers the remote down and lays back to watch. She had switched it to a different station. It's also a movie station, but has more action and less romance.Pablo had seen the mood Naevia was in when she changed the channel. He doesn't say anything, but watches the TV with her.As they were watching, another guard came in with another document in his hand. He shows it to Naevia.Pablo sees them again. This time, his eyes were fixed on Naevia and the guard. He watched her point out some things in the document for the guard. "Keep it short, I don't want long term work," She ordered.The guard obeys her. Taking the document and exiting the living room immediately.Naevia turned to face the TV. She spots Pablo staring at her, and asks him what he wanted.Pablo smiles and said, "I'm really amazed with the way you're handling this work of yours. You look just like those bosses in those big companies. Like a CEO." He smiles at Naevia.Naevia doesn't smile
