Maria had arrived at the Smith's house when Xavier and Celine got there. Mr Smith was also back from the office too, he had a big smile on his face. He was looking forward to having dinner with his grandson and his future wife, he was the most fufilled man on the planet.

They gathered at the dining table for dinner, "Thanks for accepting my invite" Maria said to Celine, after all it was her who told Xavier to convince her to come over for Dinner.

"Of course.." Celine replied.

They made small talk over their meal, they were like a happy family having a normal dinner plus the extravaganza that comes with having a meal at a billionaire's house.

"How's the wedding preparations going?" Maria asked, they were done with the main course and the maids were setting the table for dessert.

"I'll go for my final fittings next week" Celine responded.

"That's good news"

A jug of mango juice was placed on the table by a maid in uniform. Her hands seemed shaky as she placed cups on front of the pe

    After waiting for more than a quarter of a day, the door to the O.R finally opened and a doctor walked out, with two nurses in tow. Xavier jumped up from where he sat, careful enough not to wake Celine who had fallen asleep beside him. "How is he?" Xavier asked the doctor once he was in front of him. The doctor gave him an odd look, and turned back to look at the nurses with questioning eyes. "Who are you?" The doctor asked, scrutinizing Xavier like he was some criminal. "The fuck you mean who am i?" Xavier's anger erupted. "How is that important man? I'm asking you how my grandfather is, I don't fucking care if you know who I am" He yelled, causing Celine to jump up from where she had dozed off on the sit. She stood up and moved closer to Xavier, placing a hand on his shoulder. "We just want to know if Mr. Smith is alright." Celine replied. "Well, tell that to the police." The doctor sneered, looking in the direction of the two police officers coming from behind Xavier

    Xavier and Celine went back to the O.R to see his grandfather but they were told that he had been moved to a regular ward. "Regular ward?" Xavier questioned the nurse attending to them. "Do you think he deserves to be in some low budget ward?" His voice was rising as he spoke to the nurse. Celine had to tug at his sleeves for him to watch his tone. "I need you to upgrade him to you best suite, right this moment" Xavier ordered.He turned to face Celine who was standing by his side, "Can you believe this people? Regular ward?" "It's a public hospital, don't blame them" Celine responded with a shrug, she didn't see the big deal in admitting Mr Smith in a regular ward, what mattered was that he got the best treatment there was and not some VIP ward. They went to the regular ward to see his grandfather while the hospital staff got the VIP suite ready, Mr Smith was unconscious still, but Xavier was glad that his grandfather's face was no longer a reflection of pain, he felt his h

    "You can't find her?" Alexis screamed at the detective in front of her. "She's a suspect in a case of attempted murder and you're saying you can't reach her?"Alexis was fiddling with her hair and pacing the kitchen at Xavier's home. The police were doing their investigations and that was where they had found the cup Mr. Smith drank the juice from last night. Although it had been washed by the maids last night, they still found tiny traces of poison on the cup.All the maids were gathered in the kitchen and they were asked if they noticed anything but they all denied seeing anything, except for the senior made noting that the girl who served the drinks was bent on serving it and kept asking her to let her do it. "Where is she?" Officer Abel asked, the senior maid. He had come to the mansion straight from the hospital after his partner showed him the image of the glass that was poisoned. "She left immediately after dinner, sir" A young maid opted.Abel turned to his partner "Find

    "I saw the news this morning" Paul asked his daughter "How is he?"Celine sighed as her mind went back to the frail Mr. Smith she had left unconscious at the hospital."He's unconscious but the doctors are hopeful" She replied.Her father nodded in understanding. He looked out the window just in time to catch a little girl riding back along the road with her father trailing behind her, he looked to Celine and saw that she also noticed the girl and her father."I also taught you to ride a bike on this very road" Paul reminisced, earning a chuckle from his daughter. "Remember how I won't let you stay behind me, as I was. good enough to ride myself" Celine noted."Yeah, even when you'll make mistakes and fall. You won't let me pick you up. You'll say, Daddy I can do it myself" Paul paused for some seconds and looked out to the streets through the glass walls. "You were always so independent," He said, turning to look at her. "Thank you for being there even when I said I didn't need you

    Maria stayed bottled up inside her apartment, she had tried going out to the grocery store and had noticed that some car was on her trail, it was oddly suspicious so she stayed put in her house all day. Xavier must have finally caught on, she thought. "He's unto me." She whimpered, her hands shaking and she tried to steady them by wiping her palms with the edge of her shirt but it was useless to do so, her nerves were skyrocketing at this point.Picking up her phone, she hurriedly dialed a number, "Don't send the woman out of the country, she'll be linked to me. Just hide her somewhere faraway" She whispered raspily into the phone once the person on the other end had picked the call."But ma'am…" the person on the other end started to object."No buts. Just do as I say." Maria snapped and ended the phone."What do you mean she paid for a flight but didn't board?" Xavier snapped into his phone.He had just come out of the shower when he heard his phone ring. Drops of water were still t

    Xavier sat by his grandfather's side on the hospital bed, Mr Smith was slowly drifting out of his comatose state and gradually regaining his consciousness."Grandfather.." Xavier whispered, he was bent over, staring keenly at the elderly man's face to see if there were any signs of him waking up, his grandfather's brows lifted slightly to his relief.He rang a bell by the bedside to alert a nurse, less than a minute later, a female doctor walked into the hospital ward, accompanied by some nurses who held trays with medicines in them." We're going to wake him up completely now" The doctor explained to Xavier, she picked a syringe from one of the trays and drew liquid from a glass vial into the syringe.She injected the content of the syringe into the bag of intravenous drip that was going into Mr Smith's body."Is he well?" Xavier asked the doctor, he looked hopefully at the doctor."He's still extremely weak as there are still signs of the poison in his body but right now he's strong

Alexis went with her . "I see the way you both look at yourselves, so fondly. You didn't tell me you've fallen this deeply " Alexis teased, Celine was twirling in front of a mirror in a gown and was admiring the neckline."Eh…it's just happened" she shrugged, looking away trying to hide to blush on her face, but she was too late as Alexis already saw it."Ooh ..look at you blushing at the thought of him. I'm sure you really want to see his face…too bad .." Alexis teased further."I could just facetime him…" Celine tried to reach for her phone b

    "Your F"cking wife!" Maria had screamed before she passed on. Xavier's face fell as he stared at her lifeless body. To think he had really felt an iota of sympathy for her and yet here she was ruining his bride's name with her final breath…"How dare you…" he muttered under his breath and stood away from her dead body."Did you like my wedding present?" A deep, dark voice sounded at the door and like earlier, all eyes turned towards the door. It was Celine's turn to be shocked…"What in heaven's name…." She murmured as her eyes met Zack's cold eyes.'What is he doing here? I thought he had finally left my life for good ' she thought to herself…She stared at him as he made his way towards where Maria's dead body lay and kicked it, he had a gun in one hand and a knife in the other…"This gun eh…" Zack said with a maniacal smile on his face, "no don't be scared.." he said seeing that people's faces were already pale with fear. "It's not mine.." He pointed the nozzle to Maria's still bod

But now that things were settled, her plans were back on track, she had spoken with Mama Lisa the night before and she had confirmed that things were still in place, all Celine had to do was to show up with Xavier.She looked up to see Xavier enjoying his breakfast wholeheartedly. He looked much more relaxed right now that he wasn't thinking about his job. She loved that she was able to enjoy moments like this with him."I'm going to be picking out your outfit for today," Celine told him. She had gotten them both matching outfits. She had gone for casual yet classy looks.She got them both a pair of white cargo pants each and specially customized hoodies, hers read "Mrs" and his read "Mr". They would accessorize their o

    "Come home soon, i miss you 💓" Celine's text read. Xavier smiled when the screen of his phone lit up with that text. He was on him way home, later than usual. He knew she was going to be asleep by the time he got home. His wife was an early bird. She always went to bed early and woke up early. Her body clock never skips or misses it's scheduled and even at times when he came home late and she tried waiting uo for him to come back he usually met her asleep in the living room with the lights on and the TV playing in the background. This was one of the reasons he adjusted his schedule to make sure he mostly went home before her bedtime. He would always try his possible best to make sure he kissed her goodnight before she went to bed. But tonight wasn't one of those nights thanks to Zack's mischievous acts.Thinking back to Zack, Xavier's anger returned. He would have done worse than cut off his fingers before handing him off to the government, but he didn't because he knew Celine wouldn

    "You should have told me about the letters," Xavier said, his voice low and angry. "I could have done something to protect you and the baby. Why didn't you tell me?" Celine stood silently, her head bowed, unable to meet her husband's eyes. She knew he was right - she should have told him. But she had been afraid of what he might do if he knew the truth."I'm sorry," Celine said, her voice trembling, Xavier had never been angry at her for this long, so why now? "I know I should have told you. I was just...afraid. Afraid of what you might do, and afraid of what might happen to you if you got involved." She took a deep breath, and looked up at her husband, her eyes pleading. "I'm so sorry, I just...I was scared." Xavier's expression softened, and he reached out to take his wife's hand. "I understand," he said. "I can't promise I won't be angry, but I promise I won't do anything rash." The tension between them has eased a bit, but there's still a lot to talk about. Celine speaks first,

  • YES I DO?   It wasn't your fault

    Zack kept hitting the car window signaling to Celine to open it. "You have nowhere else to run to" he screamed from outside.Celine could feel her anger boiling at this point, why was he after her life so bad... what was it that she owed him that he tortured her so much with his existence. Picking her phone from her car's dashboard, she hurriedly dialed Xavier's number. Zack sensed that she was calling for help so he brought out a hammer from his pocket and started hitting the car window with it. "Come out of the car, Celine" he said while hitting the window, there was a crack on the window and he kept hitting.Xavier picked up the call as soon as it went through "Celine?".. he called from the other end of the line, he could hear her breathing heavily from her end of the line, he stood abruptly from the end of the desk where he sat, the meeting needed to stop, his wife needed him. "What is it?" He was beginning to hear the sound of glass smashing. "Where are you?"Celine was aware th

    "I'm pregnant?..." Celine asked, eyes wide opened in shock…she couldn't believe she was going to be a mom very soon."Yes baby…we are having a baby…" Xavier responded, holding her tighter."This is the best news ever!!"Celine's joy knew no bounds, she was finally living the life she had always dreamed of, she could imagine seeing her kid smiling into her eyes….she squealed at the thought."I'm so happy for us Celine…"Xavier started to say "But we might have a little problem" He said, bursting the bubble.Celine signed as her shoulders sunk down, she knew what the problem was, it was Zack. She was beginning to wonder just how foolish and naive she must have been to have been in love with him once upon a time. How come she didn't see all his red flags. He was so sweet when they were together until things went sour and he became an alcoholic."You must have seen the news too.." she told her husband. "He wouldn't dare come near me." Celine said, half mindedly, she knew that what she said

    Zack was sitting on the floor in his jailroom, his jaw was supporting his chin, he was lost in thoughts. He had been writing letters to Celine from the prison; he was wondering if she got any of the numerous letters he had sent. He was sure he got the address correctly. It wasn't easy getting her new address, he had to write to lots of other people who knew her before one of them finally gave in and let him in on her new address. It was in a fancy neighborhood but Zack didn't care, all he wanted was to get through to Celine. Their plan had to still be in place, right? He was thinking, "all she had with the rich kid was just a facade…" he murmured to himself."Bang!!" There was a loud bang coming from outside his cell… Zack jumped up with a start, he didn't know what to do? Was there a riot? He moved towards the cell gate and tried peeking through the bars….he could see the prison guards shuffling through…they were angrily hitting the bars with their batons…Zack hastily removed his han

    He was biting at his nails… they weren't neat, dirt had found its way into the gap between the nail and the flesh of his finger but he didn't care, he was lost in thought. Time was ticking, the moment was drawing near and nearer. Finally, all that he had suffered for was finally going to be worth it, all he needed was a reason to finally leave this hellhole of a place. He needed to cause a distraction, one big enough to enable him to slip away from this place without being seen, after that all he needed was a simple conversation with Celine and that would be it, the end of Xavier Smith. 'if only Xavier knew what was coming to him' Zack thought and snickered devilishly."Hey, Inmate 5467, it's time for duty" a prison Warden called from outside his cell room, snapping him out of his wild imagination. Zack gave a hiss at the unwarranted interruption but he had no choice but to oblige. After all, being a model inmate was all part of the plan. 5 MONTHS LATER… .Celine woke up with a split
