Outside, Aiden was sitting in the back seat, now processing what Dr Jerome had said to him, 'Ana had an accident'. "What happened exactly?' Aiden thought unaware the moto rider was following his car. The traffic light turned red and Aiden's car stopped and the moto rider stopped right next to Aiden's car. The person in the helmet, sitting on the motorcycle, turns to look at Aiden's car. When the traffic light turned green, the moto rider moved the motorcycle closer to Aiden's car, like he was going to hit the car, but missed it by a couple of inches. Lewis, upon seeing the motorcycle about to hit their car, moved the car away to avoid the accident and ended up moving into another road lane. This caused other road users to also move in different directions just to avoid crashing into someone's vehicle. The moto rider, unbothered by what had just happened moves in a different direction. Lewis got out of the car, checked the side of the car and looked in the direction the moto rider wen
"Dad, what brings you here?" Aiden asked, and Mr Scott just stared at Aiden. "A friend of mine called to tell me, he saw you walking into this hospital. Are you okay, son?" Mr Scott said after a while. "Bad eating habits," Aiden replied. "Son, you need to take good care of yourself. Especially, now that you are married," Mr Scott said. "Yes, Dad," Aiden said, knowing his father coming to the hospital had something to do with Ruth. "Let's go home. So you can rest," Mr Scott suggested. "No, Dad. I prefer to distract myself with work. Besides, it is nothing serious. I am fine," Aiden said and they all exited the hospital.Aiden sat in his car and headed back to the office. Mr Scott called Ruth, the moment he sat in his car. "Aiden was at the hospital for himself and there is no record of Ms Morrison coming to the hospital," Mr Scott said angrily. "What! How? She was there at the hospital," Ruth defended. "Did you see her entering the hospital?" Mr Scott asked. "No, but she is th
"Now you are in my hands. You can rest for today. Tomorrow, you begin your punishment," Amanda said with a smile on her face. Ana was sitting on the bed staring at Amanda as she walked out of her room. Ana was beyond shock but recalling her first encounter with Aiden she felt this unfair treatment was not strange. She lay back down on the bed wondering what kind of punishment Amanda would give her. Amanda upon exiting Ana's room headed for Aiden's room. She got to the door and tried to turn the doorknob but realized it was locked. She immediately frowned. She knocked."What do you want Amanda?" Aiden asked from inside."I want to be with my husband," Amanda said emphasizing the word 'husband' to remind Aiden they are a couple. "Amanda, you wanted to be married to me. And you are married to me, so what more do you want?" replied Aiden from inside. "To feel married. Is that too much to ask?" Amanda asked, sounding irritated by Aiden's reply. "Well, you are feeling it. This is how ma
"What medication is that?" Ana asked wondering what she was going to buy. "The name is too huge. I can't say it. I was only told the price. Is it that you are doubting me," Mrs Morrison asked, sounding hurt."I am sorry mummy," Ana apologized."Ask Mr Scott. I am sure he can loan you some money," Mrs Morridon suggested."Mum, that will be too much. I requested a huge sum of money from him not long ago. I cannot ask him for that much," Ana explained."I know but my health will deteriorate if I don't get the medication," Mrs Morrison said, sounding like she was on the verge of tears. "I understand, mum. I will get you the money by morning," Ana assured her with no clue where to get the money. Back in Toronto, once the call with Ana ended, Alice went into a celebration mood. She hugged her mother, Mrs Morrison. "Now you can go do your shopping," Mrs Morrison said to Alice. "Yeah," Alice said happily.Back at Aiden's private apartment, Ana was lying on the bed but could not sleep. She
Back at Aiden's apartment, Ana was done with the cleaning of the bathroom. Amanda gave Ana, the heavy curtains in her room and that of Aiden's to wash with her hands. Ana said nothing but sat down with a bowl in front of her and started washing eight double curtains with her hands using cake soap. Her hands were getting sore with the rubbing but Amanda would not let her go. Ana finished washing the clothes after 1 p.m. Amanda tasked her to iron all her clothes in her closet. Ana just stared at her. "Move and get to work. You have one more bathroom to scrub and you will be done for today," Amanda said as if that was a consolation. Ana went into the ironing room with hangers and started ironing. Her feet were hurting and she had not eaten all day since she woke up at 6 a.m. At the senator's office, Mr Scott was going through a rehearsal for his first public appearance. "Are you ready?" Mr Thatcher asked. "I think I am," Mr Scott replied with a smile. "Great, let's go," Mr Tha
Inside Amanda's room, Amanda's phone was on her bed while she was lying in a hot bath. Her phone buzzed with a notification but she didn't hear. Aiden entered the living room and frowned seeing the TV was on and no one was watching it. He turned it off and headed upstairs to his bedroom. Aiden opened the door to his bedroom and was greeted by a scrubbing sound coming from the bathroom. The curtains in his room were also gone. He frowned wondering why the servants would choose to clean his room that late. He headed for the bathroom and opened the door to find Ana on her knees scrubbing the floor with just water. "What are you doing?" Aiden asked."Cleaning," Ana replied after pausing on the scrubbing.Aiden noticed her hands were all red. He drew closer and grabbed Ana's hand to examine before he could stop himself. Ana was still on her knees but upright looking at Aiden. Aiden looked at both of her hands and they were all sore. "Why are you doing this?" Aiden asked letting go of Ana
Amanda was in her room on the phone with her father. "Dad, there is a servant girl here pregnant for Aiden," Amanda announced. "Wait, what are you saying?" Mr Thatcher asked. "I am saying, Aiden is having an extramarital affair. Would you believe it if I tell you, Aiden doesn't sleep in the same room with me and has not even touched me once since our wedding," Amanda complained. "And what is his reason?" Mr Thatcher asked. "He said, he will invite me to his room when he needs me. Meanwhile, he spends each night with the servant girl. Today, I caught this servant girl sneaking into Aiden's room at 5 a.m.," Amanda said. "And the girl is pregnant for him?" Mr Thatcher asked. "Yes," Amanda replied. "How far is her pregnancy?" Mr Thatcher asked. "What do you need that for?" Amanda asked. "I am getting a feeling, the whole marriage thing is a scam. If the servant is more than a month pregnant, it will only mean, Aiden's parents knew about her," Mr Thatcher said. "I will get you
"Oh my god, I am in Mr Scott's room," Ana thought not sure how to get down from the bed. Ana opened the bed curtain, just a little and peeped through to look at Aiden lying on the sofa. He was lying face up with one hand resting on his forehead, and the other holding the blanket covering him up to just a little bit above his lower torso. The sofa was close to the door. Ana got out of bed, using the other side and slowly tip-toed towards the door with the hope Aiden would still be sleeping. "Are you just going to sneak out without saying thank you?" came Aiden's deep voice. Ana froze in her steps with her hands stretched towards the doorknob. She cleared her throat and tried to say something but was not sure what to say. Aiden sat up on the sofa and turned to look at Ana standing next to the sofa. "I am not your babysitter," Aiden said. "I am sorry. I didn't mean for any of what happened yesterday to happen. I was just doing what Mrs Scott asked me to do," Ana said. "Mrs Scott," A
