A few days later, Steph received a call from her sister. Her father was sick and admitted to the hospital. Though she may not be talking to her dad, it shocked her, and she was scared of losing him. After all, he was the only parent she had after the demise of her mother. She called George and rushed to the hospital. She found her sister Mercy and the rest of the family in the waiting room. Her sister ran to her and started crying, but her step mum started criticizing her when she stepped in.
“I thought you left the family, and we have nothing to do with you? Why are you here?” said her step mum
“I have all right to see my dad when he is not feeling and when he is feeling well. Besides, what has it got to do with you? If you feel like not seeing me here, then go out and wait there. Otherwise, shut up and show some respect at the hospital,” Steph replied while sitting down. She could see doctors inside the room and didn’t need to ask the pe
Mr. Jackson was surprised to see George and from the way he looked at him one could see he knew him well.“Nice to meet you sir.”“Well it’s nice to meet you too. I hope you have been taking care of my daughter. She is a bit stubborn but nice girl hope you can handle her well.”“You don’t have to worry sir. I love your daughter and nothing is more important than her safety and wellbeing”“I love that. My girl has found a nice guy indeed. Am not worried about her anymore with you by her side”“Come on dad why do you say that. Am good and also you are not going anywhere. I will be staying with you from now on.”“I know dear but he is a good company and hope he is a keeper as you are” Steph felt embarrassed to be teased in front of her boyfriend but she was happy”“Dad I have called the guy you said and heel be here later tonight also George said he will help whenever you need his help.“It’s okay. I know he will help. Why don’t you bring me chicken soup from the hotel downstairs while I
From the other room George could hear footsteps. He has always been a light sleeper. He was ready to see what the intruder wanted to achieve first before making a move. When he heard the door being opened he moved swiftly towards the room and caught the hit from Mr. Jackson on the intruder’s headEven after so many years he was surprised by the vigor he still had on him. A mafia is always a mafia even when the environment changes.He jumped on the guy and hit him hard and made sure he was unconscious. He then made a call and few men come to take him away.Steph woke up from all the commotion in the room and was surprised to see her dada and George standing in the middle of the room. Though her dad was sick and weak he seemed different. Also there was a man lying on the floorShe didn’t need to ask too much and waited for them to fill her in. She knew her dad and man very well. When they want her to know they will tell her if not then she won’t force it.When two men took the man under
Steph looked at the way George was looking at her blankly and knew he was deep in thoughtsShe moved and held his hands in her’s. He was brought back to reality with the gestures. He held her hand tightly and kissed her lips passionately. Steph was caught off-guard but still she responded with the same passion. She was brought back to her senses when she remembered her father was in the next room. She cut the kiss and held his chin looking into his eyes.“Not here babe. Don’t forget dad is in the next room”“Now tell me what’s happening”“Well I promised to be honest with you but am not sure if you are ready for everything that is happening.”“Someone send over the assassin to get rid of your father. We suspect it’s one of your father’s enemy that has been working with your stepmother for a while.”“What? For how long has dad known that Nicole is a traitor?“He says its way before you moved out of the house. In fact he thought it was wise of you to move out and pretended not to care t
The look he gave her showed how much he loved her. It would hurt her so much to see him in pain. No matter what happens, they have come too far to give up on the way.Besides, they are facing unknown forces with impending danger lurking in the dark. The best thing they could do at the moment is to be united.With a determined expression and decision, she nodded at him."I want to be with you no matter who you are. I love you and everything you have got, I can handle."George hugged her tightly and kissed her all over the face. She has never seen him this happy. He was all smiling. The determination in his eyes to make her the happiest woman on earth was evident. He has never loved anyone as much as he loved her. He was willing to do anything for her.In the following few days, things went well, and Mr. Jackson was sent home. George and Steph went with him from the hospital while her stepmom remained at home to prepare his room and meals before he came.The reason he was discharged ea
In a warehouse in the suburbs outside of town. There was a man tied hanging on the wall with signs of being tortured.The door was opened from outside, and a man walked in slow, clear steps."Has he spoken yet?'"No sir""Wake him up.""Okay"Coldwater was splashed on his face. He gasps for air before trying to open his eyes completely to look ahead. From the look of it, the man seemed to have been trained for years."Just kill me. Am not going to talk""You wish" George walked over to the man and sat down.He picked a rod and inserted it fire. He seemed relaxed, like whatever he was doing was normal. It looked as it was not his first time doing the same."It's not hard answering a few questions. At least you can still keep your life. I don't like blood spilled on my hands. Well, at least that is what I believe, but it always ends up happening anyway." George said in a relaxed cold tone as he folded his shirt's long sleeveIf Steph could see how cold her man was, she would think agai
Their intimacy was interrupted when there was a knock on the door. Steph was grateful to whoever knocked on the door. George, on the other hand, was ready to kill whoever was on the door. "Boss, the lady has fainted. What should we do with her," the guy said from outside. "Get out of here. Do whatever you want to do," answered George. George was also grateful he was stopped in time. He wanted to marry Steph before he engaged in sexual intercourse. He wanted to claim her rightfully. That's what she deserves. He walked to his closet and wore casual shorts and a t-shirt He went back, lay down on the bed, and had Steph back on his arms but no intimacy. "Why did you come here today without telling me," George asked Steph. He knew it was not possible for her to just come. Something must have happened. "I received a text from you. You said there is something important we need to discuss and that I had to come quick. I guess you are not the one who texted me earlier." "How did you kno
Steph was going to face the worst tragedy ever. Mr. Jackson was facing life and death all in the next few days. All of this is hidden from them. On Saturday, George was taking a bath when he heard the bell ring in the living room. He was not expecting someone on the weekend. In fact, he wanted to take Steph out later in the evening. He was sure one of the helpers in the room would take care of whoever was ringing the bell. He relaxed in the bathtub and closed his eye. He had a very rough day with so many things piling up at the company. He has not been to the office in the last few days. He had been working from home in the evening. The next thing he heard was someone entering the bathroom without knocking, which was unusual. He quickly opened his eyes to check. He was surprised to see Sharon. She was totally naked. “What are you doing here," Asked George coldly Sharon had a very sexy body. Any average man could have fallen to her seduction but not George. With all his love, mind
George received a call from one of the secret bodyguards he had assigned to Steph. He was shocked by the news he received. The accident has caused a great sensation on the internet. It was reported that the street light had malfunctioned, leading to a major accident that acclaimed the life of two people. George did not finish listening on the phone or the TV. He ran like crazy. He was scared. His mind was all on Steph. That woman would be the end of him. He arrived at the hospital and found she was still in the operating room. He waited outside and was joined by the rest of the family. Mercy was sobbing at the corner. She was praying for her sister to survive. She woke up this morning and saw the news that an accident had happened on the highway at the junction. She almost ignored the news until she saw the car and the number plate. She was shocked and screamed. Her Stem on Nicole comes down to see what’s happening. Mercy pointed at the breaking news on the TV While mumbling,
