Sorry guys, this chapter will be short. I ed you guys to understand what kind of a person Tola is and what she's about. This chapter is not to hurt the feelings of anyone or offend any culture. If I am doing so, let me know...❤💛
Ron's Perspective... Three hours ago, Divine and I were in a state of sheer terror. She had blood staining her back, and I felt utterly helpless, not knowing how to ease her pain. We knew that the only way to get answers about what had happened was by rushing to the hospital and seeking help. Upon arriving at the hospital, the staff immediately sprang into action, recognizing the urgency of Divine's condition. She was swiftly taken to the emergency room, leaving me behind to anxiously await any news or updates. I sat there, my heart pounding, desperately hoping for positive news. But when the female doctor approached me with a somber expression and shook her head, my worst fears were confirmed. The loss of our baby was devastating, a blow that seemed to shatter my soul. In that moment, all I could think of was Divine. I didn't want to hear the details from the doctor; I could already see the sorrow etched on her face. I pleaded with her, hoping beyond hope that Divine was safe and
Tola's pov...Hours have gone by but they have not returned from the hospital. I have tried to sleep, eat, bath, but still, they have not yet returned. What could have been keeping them to come back?I just hope that Dee's child didn't survive. If the child survives, I will lose everything. I can't afford to lose everything. I have come too far to back down. Even if I had I chance to go back, I would. The kind of people I am mixed up with is fucked up. They want Dee and I want my Ronald.......I walk around the room trying to find answers but still, don't find a single thing. I take my phone on top of the table and call my leader."Tola, you know very well that you are not allowed to call me. Unless it's fundamental." The deep voice at the end of the call replies."I know boss, but I am into a deep problem!" Tola replies troubled."You will not raise you
Tola's pov...Its been days now that I have heard from my boss. He hasn't called me yet to tell me about our next plan. I can't do this any longer. I can't keep staying in this house with Dee. Since she came back from the hospital, she has been getting the most attention. Ronald doesn't even look at me. He looks at me like I am the same piece of shit.The only reason I am staying in this house is that I love him. I can't just let Dee win. I mean, what does she have that I don't have?Ronald was my first love. He took my girlhood. How can I just let him go like that? It's not easy for me but I am not going to back done from my plan. If it was not for that dick Divine's stepdad, I would have killed Dee a long time.Later on......I see Ronald coming to the kitchen. This is my only chance to show him how much I love him."Ronald baby, can we please tal
Divine's Pov... I have never in my life seen Ronald so pissed at someone. He has always been a nice person around me he has never shown me his other side of him being a bad person or what's so ever. Seeing him fighting with Tola breaks my heart because I love them both. Well, used to I mean. Tola was my best friend no matter how many times she betrayed me. I still loved her. I know for a fact that I won't be able to forgive her but I wanna try to make things right between me and her. Ronald, on the other hand, he's the love of my life. I understand the fact that he was with Tola before I met him but I never knew when I fall in when I fell in love with Ronald that he was my best friend's ex. For starters, I broke our best friend code which was a rule between me and Tola. Never to break the girl code between us. I take full responsibility for my faults but that does not give Tola the right to kill my child or betray

Divine's Pov... Sometimes, I have to pinch myself to make sure this isn't all just a dream. Two years have passed, yet it feels as though only a few months have gone by. Our child, a beautiful reflection of his father, has grown before our eyes, bringing immeasurable joy and love into our lives. I am blessed with a husband who loves me with all his heart, a man who would go to great lengths and make any sacrifice for my happiness. This kind of love is something I had never experienced before. It makes me feel cherished, valued, and truly special. I am welcomed into his arms with unwavering affection, and every day, I am reminded of the depth of his love for me. There were moments in the past when I doubted if we would ever reach this point. The obstacles that stood in our way seemed insurmountable, threatening to tear us apart forever. But Ronald, my steadfast partner, taught me the importance of patience and perseverance. He showed me that although there may be mountains to climb,
Tola POVI have given Ronald and Divine time to themselves for quite some time now. I had made up my mind that I wouldn’t disturb their family again. Now that I have Ronald’s child, I have to go back and talk to Ronald. It’s about time that I stop lying to myself and my child. She has the right to know about her father. Ronald also has the right by law to stay connected with he’s child.At first, I never thought that a time would come for to live my life in fear. I’m even afraid of little things. Like when the wind hits the window. I live in fear that Ronald would send his people to come kill me after what I did to Dee. It was not my intention to hurt Dee but she got on my way to falling back in love with my first love. Yes, she didn’t know that Ronald and I had a thing before, but she should have left him right after she found out. If she says she is a good friend, she would have stopped her relatio
“Thoughts…” Today I wake up feeling weak. I have some feeling that something deep is about to go down. I don’t know what it is but I can feel it. Whatever it is, I hope it’s not Ronald getting into trouble. I am sick and tired of fighting for this relationship. I won’t be able to do it anymore. If he messes up this time, I’m going. For good. I’m sick of the person I have become because of Ronald. I have become a person who can’t even get their priorities straight. I don’t know who I'm gonna be without him. I don’t want that kind of life. I don’t want to be his victim anymore. I cant always be the one who’s always dealing with shit on the daily. What kind of love is this if I can't even get away from him? Is that love? What I know is that love has to be beautiful. I need someone who’s gonna fight for me. Yes, he does fight for me but it’s not enough. I am not brand new to emotions. I know a lot
As I entered our rented house, the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow across the room. Ronald was seated on the couch, engrossed in a book, his presence a comforting anchor in the tranquil space.I couldn't contain my excitement as I approached him, a smile tugging at the corners of my lips. "Ron, you won't believe the incredible morning I had!"He looked up, his eyes meeting mine with curiosity. "Tell me all about it," he said, bookmarking his page and setting the book aside.Settling onto the couch beside him, I launched into the tale of my encounter with Neo—the shared connection, the laughter, the TikTok videos, and the heartfelt conversations that flowed effortlessly between us.Ron listened attentively, his expression a mix of interest and concern. "It sounds like you had a wonderful time," he remarked, a hint of a smile on his lips."Oh, it was more than wonderful," I gushed, remembering our morning filling me with joy. "Neo is amazing, Ron. We connected on many
**Time Gap: Several Years Later** The African savanna stretched before me, a vast and untamed tapestry of nature's beauty. The sun's warm embrace painted the landscape in hues of gold and amber, while the gentle breeze carried with it the symphony of nature's melodies—the rustling leaves, the distant calls of wildlife, and the soft murmur of a nearby stream. Seated on a blanket spread atop the earthy ground, I watched with a contented smile as our children explored the wilderness. Their excitement was palpable, infectious as they ventured into the unknown with the curiosity and wonder that only the African landscape could ignite. Our daughter's laughter filled the air as she playfully chased after a mischievous monkey, her eyes alight with youthful joy. Our son's voice joined the chorus as he pointed out the elephants bathing in a nearby watering hole, his face illuminated by the awe of discovery. A short distance away, Ronald worked with skilled efficiency at the grill, the aroma o
The aftermath of the confrontation with Uncle Ben weighs heavily on my mind. The tension in the air is palpable as Ronald, and I sit in our dimly lit living room, surrounded by the comfort of our home. Our children play nearby, blissfully unaware of the storm in our hearts.Ronald's face is a mask of determination, but I can see the flicker of doubt in his eyes. I know he's wrestling with the consequences of the heist, just as I am. We had thought we were invincible, that no one could touch us, but Uncle Ben's actions have shaken that belief."What are we going to do, Ronald?" I ask, my voice trembling with uncertainty. "We can't go on like this. Uncle Ben won't rest until he's taken revenge."Ronald sighs, running a hand through his dark hair. "I know, Dee. I know we've stirred up a hornet's nest, and we must be careful."As I watch our children play, my heart aches with worry. They are so young and innocent, and I fear our actions have put them in danger. We had thought we were prot
Uncle Ben's Point of ViewThe sun rises on a new day, but all I see is red. Anger consumes me as I wake up to the shocking discovery of the heist. My prized machinery, the very heart of my power within the mafia, is gone, replaced by a haunting note that warns of consequences. Ronald and Dee, once friends I thought I could trust, have crossed a line they can't come back from.As I read the words on the note repeatedly, my anger intensifies. "This is a reminder of the consequences of crossing Ronald." They've dared to challenge and humiliate me and will pay dearly for their treachery. The rage inside me threatens to explode like a volcano, but I must control it. I can't let my emotions cloud my judgment; I must plan this carefully.Strategic planning has become my sole focus. I know a confrontation with Ronald might be dangerous, and I can't afford to be reckless. I need to strike when he least expects it when he feels safe and secure.Gathering allies is my first step. I reach out to
The sun rises on a new day, casting a golden hue over the cityscape. As I step into the morning light, my mind races with the events of last night's party. The thrills of the celebration and the tension of Uncle Ben's unexpected appearance still linger in the air, and I can feel a storm brewing.I know I can't let Uncle Ben's intrusion go unpunished. My reputation in the mafia is at stake, and I can't afford to show weakness. I need to teach him a lesson he will never forget, something that will remind him of the consequences of crossing me.But as the excitement of the heist plans takes hold, I can't help but feel a tinge of unease. Dee senses my inner turmoil and places a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Ronald," she says softly, her voice steady, "I understand why we need to do this, but let's not lose sight of who we are. We're better than resorting to this kind of violence."Her words resonate with me, and doubt creeps into my mind for a moment. But I push it aside, reminding mys

Laughter and chatter filled the air as old friends reunited and new connections were forged. As the guests entered the kitchen, they were greeted by the enticing aromas that danced in the air.

As I sat with Ronald at our kitchen table, notebooks and recipe books scattered before us, excitement filled the air. The preparations for our upcoming party were in full swing, and we were fully immersed in the joyous whirlwind of planning."Ronald, let's start with the menu," I suggested, a playful smile tugging at the corners of my lips. "We can't celebrate without some mouth-watering South African dishes."His eyes lit up with anticipation as he leaned closer, his voice filled with enthusiasm.

I gather the shopping bags filled with the items I've chosen for the upcoming party.Entering the house, I'm greeted by the comforting scent of home-cooked food wafting from the kitchen. The sounds of laughter and chatter float through the air, wrapping me in a warm embrace. Ronald stands at the stove, tending to a delicious meal that awaits us."Hey, honey," Ronald says, his eyes lighting up as he sees me. "Welcome back. Dinner is almost ready."I smile, grateful to be home with my loving family. "Thank you, Ronald. It's good to be back."Our three-year-old twins run towards me, their tiny arms outstretched. I lift them up, peppering their cheeks with kisses. Their giggles fill the room, momentarily lifting the weight of the outside world.After settling the children down to play, Ronald and I find a moment alone in the living room. I
