"Are you sure? Was it Sharon's place or Sharon's brother's house?" Mama-Tina asked again, wanting to be sure. Tina shuddered and replied, "Sharon's place.""Hmm... If this is just Sharon's place, then why are your eyes so red? What happened, Tina? Did anyone touch you?" Mama-Tina asked worriedly as she moved closer to examine Tina, but Tina moved backward away from her mother and stared downward."Tell me the truth, Tina, what happened?" Mama-Tina insisted, but Tina shook her head, not wanting to reveal the truth. She said, "Nothing happened, Mom."Tina thought, "How can I tell my mother the truth, that Sharon's brother slept with me? No, I cannot do that." Breaking her mom's heart, Tina kept quiet.Mama-Tina sighed and replied, "Fine then, go inside and take your bath. I will be leaving soon with Jude to the market, as I am just waiting for Jude to finish his breakfast."Jude stepped out since he had finished eating his meal, and he smiled at Tina and stared at their mother as he ste
When Prisca got to Tina's house, she stood and knocked heavily on the small gate, banging it loudly, while waiting impatiently for Tina to come out. Prisca banged on the gate again with her fist. (Bang! Bang!)Tina woke up from her sleep, hearing the loud sound of someone knocking on the main entrance gate. She sprang up and immediately dashed out of the bed and rushed out to check who was there, remembering that she had locked up the gate before going inside to sleep.Tina approached the gate and peeped through the small hole. She saw it was Prisca knocking, making her frown as she finally unlocked the gate and pulled it open to glare at Prisca angrily.Even though her mother had warned her not to allow Prisca into their compound again, Tina still wanted to find out what Prisca wanted. She immediately asked Prisca coldly, "What are you doing here, Prisca?"Tina crossed her arms over her chest, staring at Prisca irritably. Prisca frowned and looked at Tina from head to toe before aski
Sharon left the house earlier, and when she returned, she saw Patrick with some of his business visitors who had arrived at his home. Some were his close friends, and they were all discussing and laughing. "Good evening, everyone," Sharon greeted them and walked past them while heading to her room. Patrick wasn't able to question Sharon about where she went the previous night or where she was coming from again. He let it slide because he wasn't in the mood to confront her. After seeing off his friends and business partners, Patrick decided to sleep in his room. Just as he stepped into the parlor and walked to the corridor leading to their rooms, Sharon stepped out of her room and stopped him. "Brother, what happened between you and Tina the previous night while I was away?" Sharon asked, and Patrick paused, but he kept silent as he turned to face Sharon. Sharon continued, "Well, I just want to know what happened between you and that yellow wench." "Yellow wench?" Patrick aske
Over the following two weeks, Tina's health symptoms worsened, from throwing up early in the morning to becoming too lazy to do anything. The worst was falling asleep at any given moment. Mama-Tina noticed Tina's changes and approached her as she was vomiting one fateful morning. She asked Tina, "What's wrong with you, Tina? Are you still sick?"Mama-Tina asked worriedly as she touched Tina's forehead to check her body temperature, gasping as she felt Tina's body was very hot. Mama-Tina rushed to a nearby pharmacy to get some medicine for Tina, but still, after some days, Tina became more sick, and her mother had no other option but to take Tina to the hospital. The doctor ran a test on Tina and later confirmed to Mama-Tina that Tina was pregnant."What?! Doctor! What did you just say?" Mama-Tina asked in disbelief. "How can my daughter be pregnant?"Mama-Tina started crying, not expecting Tina to become pregnant at such an important stage in her life. She screamed, "Tina has finish
Patrick drove to Mr. Bright's mansion in his Mercedes-Benz, and he was welcomed by Mr. Bright, his wife, and their children as Mr. Bright ushered Patrick into their living room. Mr. Bright introduced his wife and daughters to Patrick, and afterward, they proceeded to the dining area to have their dinner.While they were eating at the dining table, one of Mr. Bright's daughters, Anita Bright, was smiling and shining her beautiful brown eyes at Patrick. After dinner ended, Patrick thanked them all as he stood up to leave, but Anita asked her father for permission to escort Patrick outside to his car, which was parked in their garage, while the rest of the family sat back in the living room and watched television.Anita used the opportunity to introduce herself to Patrick as they walked to the garage where Patrick's car was parked in her father's compound. She said, "Hi, I'm Anita Bright; I guess you're Patrick Scott, right?" Anita smiled brightly at Patrick, and he smiled back at her an
Tina remembered her father had left them since Jude was a baby, saying he was tired of their mother, and he left with another woman who was controlling him then. Tina sighed as she waited for her mother to step out, and she asked, "What happened, Mom? When did Dad return?""Hmm." Mama-Tina first sighed as she sat back with Tina."He came back with the lady he had previously run away with. I should've been back before now, but the elders were trying to settle the lady, as she refused to leave without your father following her back to the city. She claimed your father wanted to abandon her now that she was getting older. And your father claimed she hadn't given him any children in all those years he had been living with her and sleeping with her, so he couldn't continue with her, and he returned to us.""And you accepted?" Tina asked, but her mother sighed and shook her head.Mama-Tina was happy to see her grandson already grown, as he really looked cute and chubby. She asked Tina, "Am
Anita's birthday was fast approaching. Being a billionaire business mogul's daughter, Anita had invited all her friends, media team, and paparazzi to attend her birthday celebration, as she wanted the whole of City A to know she was Patrick's woman. Anita's birthday was to be held at the Royal Glamour Hotel in City A, and only those with a special invitation could attend her birthday celebration.Anita had discussed this with her girlfriend in fear of how Patrick had been nonchalant about proposing or making his love for her official. Patrick didn't have any problem with them hanging out together, but he didn't like sleeping with her without protection either. Anita felt Patrick was probably seeing a secret, mysterious woman somewhere, who might not be in City A, as to why he wasn't taking his relationship with her seriously.Anita's friend, Joyce, had advised Anita to give Patrick some time; probably he wasn't ready to settle down yet, and besides, they were both still young, and th
Anita frowned as she knew Patrick didn't want to sleep with her without protection, and Anita really wanted to get pregnant for Patrick, so she became annoyed."Why babe?. There's no need for that. I want you to make love to me like that, without the cond*m." Anita spoke, but Patrick refused."No," Patrick said, and Anita got embarrassed as she saw Patrick putting on his trousers back.Anita drew closer to Patrick to touch him again, as she was still n*ked, but Patrick still didn't want to."What's wrong, babe?. Don't you love me enough to make love to me without protection?. Ain't I not pretty enough for you?." Anita asked sadly, and Patrick sighed and replied, "No. It is not like that, babe. Look, there's nothing wrong with us doing it without protection, just that I preferred it that way since we aren't yet married.""Hmm." Anita frowned."Then let's get married," Anita told Patrick, but Patrick didn't say anything as he walked away to his stairs, going upstairs to his room.How wou
Mella rushed and drove back to the police station, as Chris was already released, and asked to sign the undertaking papers, saying that he would never do anything to Tina or Patrick again, and he sighed the undertaking note.After Chris was through signing and was giving his clothes and shoes to wear, as the police officers had seized his clothes on the day he was arrested, he just returned back from work and hadn't even gone inside to change his office clothes because he was speaking to Tina before he was arrested.Chris collected his clothes and wore them, then he set to leave for home, as he wondered who granted him bail, as he was earlier told in the morning that he was going to court the new week.Chris brother Evan was called by the police officer who informed him about Chris being released from their station, and his brother prepared to go to the police station with Chris Car to welcome Chris, as he knew how to drive, so he decided to use Chris car to pickup Chris and bring him
Finally, it was Mella's turn to see Patrick, as Mella had waited for almost four hours before it got to her turn, as it was already noon.Mella was led to Patrick's office by an assistant who came out to escort her. And the assistance could tell Mella was a big man's daughter from her prestigious look, as Mella loved putting on suits that exposed her full cleavages, and she liked attracting men's attention to herself.So Mella could tell the assistance that came to escort her was admiring her beautiful look and bossom, as her suit perfectly hugged tightly to her body and brought out her sexy shape."Welcome, ma'am. You may go in now to Patrick in his office," Dave said to Mella."You don't need to knock again; just step Dave said, and Mella replied,"Ooh! Thanks."Mella winked at Dave. As it was part of her lifestyle to wink at people as a form of appreciating them, she gently opened the door, pushing it open, and she walked in.Patrick sat in his executive office seat and was facing t
Mella was happy to know that Chris still liked her, as she had thought that probably if she opened up her true feelings to Chris, he would reject her. And she thanked Evan for telling her the whole story and drove back home.Mella planned on visiting Patrick in his office during working days, as she didn't know his house except for his company, and she has heard a lot about Patrick and seen him on trending hot male celebrities in City A who have money and aren't yet married.Mella sighed as she wondered if Patrick would forgive Chris on her behalf and grant him bail too, or better yet, end the case.Mella decided to visit her family house first to rest over the weekend, so she wouldn't worry much about Chris being in the police cell.Her family lived in the heart of City A too, as her father was a billionaire, so she decided to pay her father a surprise visit, as she hadn't seen him to thank him properly for assigning her as the new CEO.Arriving at her father's mansion, Mella went to
Evan calmed down and said, "Fine, I will explain the situation better to you, for you to understand what I meant." Then he paused and looked at Mella's face, and he continued,"My brother is in love with the same lady, Mr. Patrick, whom his friend is also in love with. My brother and her have been in a relationship for up to a year now, and I am only just getting to realize from the police station that the said lady already has a child for Mr. Patrick before she met my brother, and Chris knew about this and still wants her even though she has a child for Patrick.""What!" Mella exclaimed as she stared at Evan in disbelief."Honestly, the situation at hand now is that my brother kidnapped her from the village and brought her here to live with him in the city, even with her son, and that was why Patrick arrested him. Because the said lady and his son had been declared missing by the lady's parents in the village," Evan said."Hmph..." Mella sighed with a deep frown settled on her face."
Patrick helped Tina strip her of her clothes, leaving only her pants and bra. As the dim lights were still brightly on in his room, he could clearly see her body.Tina didn't seem to have lost too much weight, but she already forgot that her stomach had grown out a little over the past few weeks of staying at Chris house, as her protruding stomach was now visibly showing that she was pregnant.Tina was shy, as was standing to Patrick's view, and she didn't want to turn around for Patrick to see her stomach or to face him either.She already brought her medicine with her, and the pregnancy test result was in it, but she didn't even remember all that when she was in Patrick's car, except now that she was with Patrick in his bedroom.Patrick pulled Tina closer to himself as he had already pulled off his top and was now slightly bare with Tina, with his bare chest facing her.He pulled off his trousers and was left in only his shorts, as he wanted to help Tina take her bath. Then he unhook
Mama-Tina continued speaking to Tina on the phone, and she said, "It's okay, my daughter. I'm just happy that you are found. I hope nothing happened to you and Godsent?" Mama-Tina sounded a bit worried, and Tina replied,"No, mama, we are fine. We will soon come home to see you and Papa. How're Papa, Richmond, and Jude doing?.""They are all fine, Tina, and I am also happy to hear that you were found. Take good care of yourself, and please give the phone back to my in-law."Tina sighed as she heard her mother call Patrick her in-law, while she gave Patrick back his phone and continued feeding her son, as she didn't have the appetite or strength to eat much before, not after all the things that Chris had said to her, but now she felt better and could feed her son.Tina wanted to leave Chris house immediately, so she went in and packed only her things that she used to bring with her the first time Chris brought her from the village, leaving all the things behind that Chris had bought for
"Freeze! don't move!" The police officers ordered Chris to stand up. And Chris was so shocked as he stared at the police officers, wondering what was going on in his home."We're from City A, Police Command, and you are Mr. Chris Douglass. You are under arrest for the kidnapping of one Miss Tina Praise and her son, Godsent, so you have the legal right to remain silent as anything you say shall be used against you in the court of law." The police officer said all in one go to Chris, and Chris stared at him in shock. As he was speechless, he wondered who could've found out that he was the one responsible for Tina's disappearance. Chris thought the last time he had visited Patrick, he never told Patrick anything to make Patrick suspicious of him, and he was still wondering who fished him out as the villain behind the mask and got him arrested.Just then, Patrick walked in just as the police officer handcuffed Chris and wanted to drag Chris out. Patrick stared at Chris with dagger eyes,
Tina stared at Chris in shock. She couldn't believe her ears and thought she was so stupid to think Chris wouldn't know who Patrick was.She never thought of this at first, as she knew Chris was from the same village as Patrick, and Patrick was also well known even in the city. Only by searching his name on the internet did she see him, so how would Chris not know so much about Patrick too?Tina stared downward, as she couldn't meet Chris again. So Chris was even friends with Patrick and close to Patrick; why didn't he tell her all these years?.Chris knew Patrick well and knew everything about her, and as he watched Patrick tell him how he made love to her and how she was craving his touch, Tina felt disgusted as to how some men could boldly tell their friends about their sexual lives.She couldn't even tell her best friend or her mother, as she couldn't discuss something as private as that with anyone."So was that why you brought me here to the city, out of jealousy?" Tina suddenly
Mama-Tina couldn't believe her ears when Patrick told her that he knew Chris well, as Chris was his boss's friend.Mama-Tina was speechless even more when Patrick also said that Chris even visited him last week before he traveled home, and she became worried."What if he is not the one who took Tina away?" Mama-Tina asked Patrick, getting more worried. As she assumed, if truly Chris came to visit Patrick and Patrick told him that his girlfriend and child were missing, then that means Chris wasn't the one behind Tina and Godsent's disappearance.Patrick stared at Mama Tina, and he gave her back her phone and said,"Mama, if Chris is not the one behind Tina and Godsent's disappearance, then we will find out. Don't call his number, as I already left my village and I cannot drive back there to go check in his family house, to know if he took Tina there, but I will go to check his house in the city, even if it means me arresting him. As he can't take Tina away and take my son away too, it c
