“This is unbelievable!” Toyosi could be heard screaming as she ran into the house with excitement.“We just couldn’t keep the news to ourselves, babe! I’m so over the moon!” She cried out and they both hugged tightly.“Mommy,” May called while running to meet her mother.“Oh, May, you need to leave your mommy to rest for now. Go and play with the boys,” Toyosi urged while trying to turn her away.“Oh, let my baby girl come to me,” she insisted and lifted May from the floor.Toyosi smiled as she saw the little girl giggle with excitement.“I know Daren is the happiest man on earth right now,” she whispered to Melisa who was playing with her daughter.She smiled and turned to Daren who was drinking and laughing with Evan and their fathers who were both present in the room.“Come over here, daughter,” Mr Bronze urged with his hands as he caught her staring at them.She walked over to him and she handed May over to him. She took her seat beside him and he heaved a sigh and turned to look

She hurried into the room and shut the door behind her. For a moment, she stopped and leaned her back on the door, sobbing silently. She had tried to hold back the tears all through their ride home but right now, she needed to let it out, she thought as she wept heavily.She walked away from the door and looked around the spacious, serene bedroom which had grown so cold without the presence of her once beloved husband. Charles had given his all for this marriage; how could she have thought he would be nothing without her. She gulped and walked to the bed where she sat down slowly and reminisced about her encounter with him at the restaurant. The tears flowed down freely and she had no second thought of holding them back.Just then, she heard a voice outside the room and she wiped off her tears immediately. The door opened and her mother walked into the room wearing a long face. She stopped before the bed and gave her a long stare.“What’s with the tears, Elsa?” She asked angrily.“Mo

There was a rising tension at the sound of his voice. Her eyes bulged and her heart began to race as he made an evil chuckle which made her feet turn cold. She gulped and raised her eyes to look at everyone present in the room who were all staring at her.“It’s him, it’s the bastard,” she said to them and they all gathered around her while anticipating to hear his voice again.“What did you do to my daughter? What did you do to May?!” She barked.“Relax, lovely. She’s safe in my hands,” he said with a chuckle.“You bastard! If you ever do anything to my child, I will kill you!” Daren flared and Evan grabbed hold of him.“Patience, let’s hear what he has to say,” he said to him while he kept on panting heavily.There was a slow sinister laughter from the phone and the moment became tense.“Your child, you say? How about trying to produce a child of your own before spilling trash?” He mocked.“Daren, hush. Be calm,” his father said to him and he tried to maintain his cool.“Jerry, what

There was complete silence as they sat in the passage with her head leaning on his shoulder and his arms wrapped around her back. He seemed to have fallen asleep while she stayed awake, thinking of everything happening in her life at the moment. She thought of the discovery that was made by Dennis earlier today and her face beamed with a smile. He had promised to take samples from both Daren and May to conduct a second DNA test. She needed to be sure because everything happening is too good to be true, she thought as a tear escaped her eye.They haven’t been allowed to see May and it was evening already. The doctor had assured her that she would be alright and she had only suffered shock from the fall. There were no fatal injuries and so she had nothing to be worried about. Jerry had been arrested and her fathers were on their way to the hospital.She was still deep in thought when she heard footsteps in the passage. She raised her head and saw Toyosi and the men walking towards her.

She was almost fast asleep on the bed when she heard the sound of her phone ringing on the lampstand beside the bed. She opened her eyes and yawned tiredly. She reached for the phone slowly and looked at the caller ID.“Dotun,” she muttered inaudibly.“Hello, what do you want at this time of the night?” She asked grumpily.“Mother, there is something I need to let you know about the company,” he said from the phone.“Can’t it wait?” She asked.“No, mother, it’s urgent. Please meet me up in front of the garden,” he replied.“Dotun, what is it that you can’t spill on the phone?” She asked angrily.“Mother, it’s not a phone talk. I need to see you. Plus, there is also something you need to know about father,” he said and her eyes bulged.She stood up right and adjusted the white nightie she was wearing.“I will be there,” she said immediately and stood up from the bed.Walking out of the room, she could see none of the guards in sight. “Where could they have gone?” She asked no one in p
