“Are you okay?" he asked as Kai joined them noticing his wife's state.
“What happened, what did you do to her?" he fumed holding Lorenzo's shirt.
“Let go, Kai! he saved my life, something you couldn't do ever since we got married." she scolded as she walked off to the car in shock and anger.
“Pay attention to your family and stop looking to pick fights at any moment you get." Lorenzo spat walking to his car.
Ah, way to make a comeback Valerie, I missed being a thorn in your flesh. Let's get that number plate and then I move on from there. Lorenzo thought to himself as adrenaline pumped through his veins.
” Why do you have to make everything about you?" Xara asked when Kai entered the car.
“ Are you okay?" he asked changing the topic.
“I, I'm just shocked. I don't think this place is safe f

“I've got good and bad news for you," Lyle said to Penny as they sat at the park. “Bad news first, please." she inched closer ready to hear what he had to say. “Okay, I'm moving to Washington, D.C. next week." he dropped the bombshell. “Is your dad okay?" that was the first thing that came in mind. “Dad's, dad's fine." he sighed. “And the good news?" she tried to clear the air. She had two more weeks left until the year ended before she moved to Washington, D.C. " So, I told you about my interview at Pfizer, a pharmaceutical company. Well, I had an email saying I've been hired for the Senior Director position and have to start in two weeks." he dropped. “Oh my gosh, Lyle I am so happy for you, this is wonderful." she hugged him. “ It's in two weeks so why leave now, we could go together," Penny suggested. “I have to go check out my accommodation and where my workplace is, and also settle in before work sta

It had been months since Xara had her baby boy and Penny left. Valerie had been arrested and detained in a mental facility. She had been declared missing by one of the mental facilities in Boston. Life would be better for Xara, you might think. With her attempted murderer in jail, she would enjoy her marriage alas. Sorry to burst your bubble, but you remember I said Kai was a chronic womanizer, he's gone back to default settings. Different women had tried to attack Xara publicly declaring she wasn't fit to be a Maximilian, without the help of Lorenzo, she would have been battered on several occasions. “Maybe if I leave his house with Elon, it would do us some good," she said to her friends. She was on a conference call with both Penny and Alianna. “ Wouldnt he think you've run away with his son?" Penny asked. “I am not divorcing him, Penny, I want to come back stronger. I am tired of being called a peasant. It's time to put my certificate to u

“ This is more like a mansion Alianna." Xara faces timed her friends. “I know, if I told you it was, you would have refused to stay there, you deserve much more Xara. This is your chance to be stronger. The days of you being called a peasant are over." Alia giggled. “Thank you Alianna, for making her smile genuinely. It's been long I saw her do that." Penny chipped in. “You both are welcome, so tell me, Penn, how's Washington, D.C. and Lyle?" Xara asked changing the topic. “It's fun, Lyle is good he's just a busy bee. We both occupied with work but we still get to meet each day." she blushed. “That's nice. I'm happy for you guys." Alianna said to her. " You heard from Kai ever since you guys left?"Penny asked munching on some Oreos. “Nope, nothing I wonder if he got my note." she sighed. “Ah, about that Ma said he ripped it right in front of her and threw them in the bin, I'm sorry but ever since you left it's been one

“Can I see my son?" Kai rudely demanded as she answered his video call. She put the camera in front of Elon as he made baby giggles. “Hey, baby, how you doing?" Kai asked as he giggled the more. “So your plan is to keep my baby from me? While you go whoreing around?" he said. Xara placed the phone on the bed as he faced the ceiling. “I don't whore and I'm not keeping him away. I couldn't leave my three-month-old with you in that house while different women waltz in and out. I'm sorry Kai Maximilian, that wasn't going to happen." she boldly declared shocking him. “Ah, and the peasant suddenly grew wings, what a pity." he scoffed. “My parents weren't rich like yours and that doesn't give you the right to call me a peasant, husband. I tolerated that before but not anymore. If you would excuse me I've got work to do. Would you like to say goodbye to your son?" she asked. He didn't answer for a while, she checked to see that h

" Ma please, enough of the ranting and raving, you wanted her out in the first place and now she's gone what changed?" he asked. “ It's different now, she's a multi-millionaire and CEO to one of the companies belonging to one of the business tycoons in town, and also the mother of your child, the heir to your company," she stressed. “ Haha, what makes you think she would accept me? She's different now mom, she's made a name for herself and you want her to come back to the man who never treated her right? Think twice mom, think twice." he added on frustrated. “ It doesn't hurt to try, son. What if she still loves you? Drop that ego and apologise to her." she pats him on the shoulder and walked out. “Babe, babe!" his arm candy of the week shook him awake. “What is it?" he asked rubbing his eyes.

“Just a minute!" Xara said as she hurried down the staircase with Elon in her arms to check who was at the door. Her maids hadn't yet arrived for duty. “Surprise!" Penny, Alianna, Neo, Lorenzo and Lyle yelled holding a cake and some gifts. “You guys didn't have to," she added on surprised, trying to calm a screaming Elon down. “Come on in." she ushered them in locking the door. The girls set the cake and other gifts in the kitchen as they joined the guys in the living room. “I forgot today was my birthday, thanks, guys." she appreciated. “It's no big deal, we got you." Penny smiled. “ Hey, baby," Alianna cooed as she took Elon from Xara. She rushed upstairs to have a quick shower and dress up. The maids resumed their duties shortly after Xara went up. Elon's nanny took him to bathe him and dress him up as well. They prepared breakfast for Xara and her friends. “ Ma'am, he's ready for his meal now." the nanny broug

“ Is that not--- “ Kai, are you watching the news?" Gerald said as soon as he answered the call. “ You just woke me up, Gerald," he rubbed sleep off his eyes. “ Good check the news, like now," he ordered him to. “ Okay," he turned on the television. He saw his wife holding Elon in an interview. The headlines read " Xara Maximillian, the CEO to Hopkins and Co, Miami, FL branch." “ No, that, that can't be her." Kai found himself saying. “ That is your wife Kai, it's Xara," Gerald said. “ So Mrs Maximillian did your husband get you this job? If yes why did he offer you a spot in his company?" the host asked. " For years, I've always been known as 'the peasant wife' and not recognized as his wife, buy others and him as well. This opportunity was offered to me by one of my best friends, Alianna Hopkins.

“ Hey, beautiful." A man walked towards Aisha and gave her a peck on the lips. She had been able to lose weight, through exercise and the words of encouragement from Lorenzo. Lorenzo sat rooted to his chair watching on. His expression was that of pain, anger, jealousy and hurt. He had asked her out and she blatantly refused, with the excuse that she wasn't ready to date again due to past experiences and hate comments from her exes, and now she was dating another man. “Lorenzo, meet my---- “Save it, Aisha!" he fumed walking out of the restaurant in pain. “Is he okay?" the man asked a confused Aisha. “ I'm as shocked as you are babe," she said as he sat on the seat Lorenzo occupied.

Epilogue. " So you mean you're part of the Mafia?" Lorenzo asked as they walked along the streets. The street lights laminated their paths as they took a stroll. " Of course, I am their lawyer...a Mafia lawyer," she explained. " Okay, that explains the men you came along with to help us out." " Yeah," she answered. " For how long have you been a Mafia lawyer?" he couldn't help but ask. " After law school, when my dad died. I had no choice but to take over because I was my father's successor that's why he sent me to law school in the first place. At first, I didn't want to be a part of it but I had no choice when he threatened to disown me. I had nowhere to go or to start from so I obeyed him and after he died I became their lawyer. I was sceptical at first but when time went on, I got used to it and decided to stay." she explained. " I see," he answered. Lorenzo and Kenzie headed over to her plac

" We meet again Kai Maximilian," Valerie curled her lip pointing a gun at Elon's head. " What do you want?" he interrogated as another masked man held Xara down. " Chill, Kai. A little payback won't hurt," she laughed like a maniac. " Why did I involve myself with you in the first place?" he blurted out. " Because I could give it to you real good. Something none of your bitches could do," she let out a dry laugh. " Yeah right," " I loved you, Kai, since high school. But you ignored me. You reported to management that I was stalking you and hurt some of the girls you went out with. Of course, I did all that. But I still loved you, so after college, I tracked you. But you didn't recognise me. I had changed. We were fine until Mabel came in, but she was a scaredy-cat so she ran off. Then you went for her, I thought she would leave as her sister did. She didn't.

Weeks had passed and Lorenzo had been discharged from the hospital. Kai spent more time with his family, he came to check on his wife and son regularly. He even spent some nights in Xara's house, he hadn't yet summoned the courage to ask them to move back in with him. He needed all this mess to be over before he asked them to move in. Now more than ever, Lorenzo was determined to find Valerie. He needed to find her and end this madness once and for all. He knew she was hiding in a town not far away from Brooklyn, NY and how she had made a living for herself. What he needed right now was an insider to monitor her footsteps and plans. He had been able to track down the assassin she hired. Time to pay him a nice visit. " Boss, I need a favour." " Kenzie, what kind of favour do you want?" he asked her. " I need men to track down a certain someone who almost killed people I've come care about," she told him. She was a mafia lawyer, a

" Xara, Elon...move!" Lorenzo got there just in time to take the bullet for them. " Aaah!" Xara gripped Elon's hand as a crowd gathered around them. The bullet hit Lorenzo's right arm, getting to his chest. He lay in a pool of blood as Xara stood frozen, she felt blood trickle down her legs. " Call an ambulance please," Lorenzo called out in pain. Elon held onto his mother's legs crying and terrified at the scene that just unfolded in front of them. The paramedics gently put Lorenzo onto the stretcher and helped Xara into the ambulance as well as Elon as they were rushed to the hospital. " Next time, don't miss the target., Valerie said into the assassin's AirPods " Got it, boss," the masked man responded blending into the crowd after he fled from the scene.

AJ lay in Valerie's bed fast asleep. She sat up smoking a cigarette lost in thought. He's not a bad company. I could hang around him for a while before discarding him, besides he's got the dough. Isn't that what everyone wants? She chuckled. She stole another glance at him. He slept peacefully as if he had no care in this world. No troubles, no nothing. He slept like a newborn babe. Valerie wore her robe and descended the stairs to the kitchen. Her tummy was rumbling and she decided to fix breakfast for both of them since he was already here. She finished with their breakfast an

"I'm so sorry, I didn't see you there." Valerie apologized bumping into a handsome young man. He looked sophisticated. " It's fine, don't worry about it..." he trailed off. Her hand bent over to pick up the clutch she intentionally dropped when she bumped into him. " That's fine, I would see you around then." she turned around to go. She began to count in her head 1..2...and 3. "Excuse me," the man called her back. Works like magic, she said to herself walking towards him. " Umm, you called." she bit down her lips seductively. " Yeah, here's my card. Call me when you get to your destination. I'd love for us to have dinner, to get to know ourselves better." he stared at her cleavage. " I'd love to Sir," she responded. " Call me Ajax...AJ for short," he told her. " Alright AJ, I'm Valerie...and it was nice meeting you.

“ Valerie, what else do you want from him? You made it out of jail, made money, and you're living an obedient life. What at all do you need again?” Well, the caller asked. “ Oh, I don't need anything from him but a small payback,” she smirked. “ Payback for what? Haven't you done enough already? Haven't you caused adequate harm to him and his family… What do you want?” the caller said in frustration. “ Payback they say is a…bitch. The scumbag made me rot in that vile following cell. He humiliated me in front of everyone. For now, I'm just focusing on making else money, waiting for my jailbreak saga to die down, and then I strike when he least expects it.” she laughed hysterically. “ You're one nut job…” ******** “ Mr. Ken Wilson, 55 years of age, father of two.

Lina and Lana rang the doorbell again waiting for an answer. It had been long they last saw their brother and his wife. The last time they saw him was at his wedding. " Surprise, surprise," Lina said as Penny got the door. "Oh my...come on in. It's been a while we saw you girls." Penny said as they walked in. " Thanks, you have a beautiful home by the way." Lana complimented. " Thanks, please have a seat and what do I get you?" she inquired. " Anything you have at home." they both answered at the same time.
