Chapter 1

“Yes!” Camelia screamed aloud again as she stared at the papers with her. Her eyes remained glued to the paper, a bright smile on her face.Finally, she got what she had always wanted! “Francis needs to hear this,” she said to herself as she got into the car, unable to control the tears that were streaming down her eyes. Five years of being called barren by her mother-in-law and watching the hurt in Francis' eyes had been unbearable. But now she had a life in her and she couldn't wait to break the news to him.Camelia stepped hard on the accelerator, eager to get home, but she recalled the words of the doctor: to take things easy.She took a deep breath to calm herself and made her way slowly to her house.“Francis! Francis!!” She called aloud; immediately, she alighted from the car. “Is he home?” She asked the butler who came out from the door.She couldn’t tell if he was home since his cars were still parked in the open garage just as it was when she left it.The butler shook his

Chapter 2

“I forgive you, Francis.” Camelia stared calmly at him as she spoke. He was just joking; he didn’t mean the divorce statement.She had decided that it was her fault he had decided to cheat since she couldn’t give him a child. But that was all in the past, a new life was growing in her.“I don't want this to come in between us,” she rose and moved towards him, her eyes filled with hope and a half-hearted smile. “I accept that you made a mistake with Hillary and it's fine. Let's now focus on…”“No, Camelia. I can’t do that.” Francis snatched his hands away from her and took some steps backwards. “I'm fed up with this marriage, I said I want out.” “No!” She cried, her voice shook with hysterics, and she could feel a splitting headache coming; her vision became blurred by tears whelming in her eyes. “You want out with what Francis?” She screamed when he ignored her question. Her hand was tightened in a fist beside her and her breathing became heavy.“I'm tired of living with a barren an

Chapter 3

“I don’t understand you,” Camelia said under her breath, shaking her head dramatically.She was confused, and at the brink of going crazy; that was if she hadn’t already gone crazy.She believed deeply that any more drama or silly plot twists and she would be sent to an abyss of mental breakdown.“You should, considering you gave the diagnosis and prescriptions for the drugs that made one of your patient’s illnesses worse. Don’t play the good cop, that ship sailed. We would appreciate you not speaking anymore Mrs Noah,” the cop said as Raphael cuffed her sleeve and pushed her into the ready car.Camelia laughed; she had spent most of her 20s studying to be a physician. And not only had she graduated summa cum Laude, but she had also gotten awards of recognition in under two years of her practising. This was impossible! She knew it but didn’t just understand where the sudden claim was coming from. “Call my husband! If we eventually figure out this was a mistake, you and all the rest

Chapter 4

The words of the cop echoed into her ears and she kept hearing his statement repeatedly in her head.‘Was this truly the end of her? Had Francis truly left her here to rot.’ This was the question she asked herself over and over as she stared at the mind in silence.She knew she had been framed, even the woman had come to thank her after the treatment. So, where had it all gone wrong?A part of her told her the man was right, after all, he had outrightly thrown divorce papers at her when he had been caught cheating.“My husband will come to bail me,” she stated again, her gaze unyielding and determined. The cop chuckled, he shrugged and walked out of the cell, leaving Camelia alone in the dark, chilly cell.Her knees trembled and gave way when she was left alone. She wrapped her arms around her frail body in the cold, mentally exhausted from crying and all she could do was wait.‘Would Francis come to save her?’‘‘Ah!’’ She shrieked in pain, feeling a sharp cut in her stomach. She fea

Chapter 5

Francis Noah! The name popped boldly in the notification.Camelia's heart thumped aloud and she continued to stare in horror at the laptop, having no intention of clicking the mail. Her body stiffened as she felt a strong surge of her emotions rushing in. How was it that her coming back seemed to have traces of him everywhere? First, she had a dream and now, she received a mail from him.What in the world had he even sent to her, she wondered, looking at the notification in curiosity, her heart skipping a beat as she moved her fingers to click on it.How did he know she was back, the last she checked, she had intentionally filtered out her former hospital from the list of applications she had sent.Unless he…She clicked on open stiffly, but heard a small sound beside her as she wanted to read through.Camelia turned to see her daughter stirring awake beside her. She quickly snapped the laptop shut, forced a smile on her face and returned her attention to the little girl.It was for

Chapter 6

Camelia removed the pair of shades from the eyes and peered closely at the couple displaying their public affection. It was indeed Hillary, she remembered the blue floral dress clearly. But who was the man and why was he not Francis? She wondered, her attention still on them as she cleared her luggage with the security.“Dad!” A tiny voice cried out, causing people to turn their attention to them again.Camelia turned and saw the little boy she had noticed seated beside Hillary on the plane. ‘So Hillary had a child for another?’“Oh my!” She gasped, her hand flying to her mouth that was wide open and she turned back s“Is something wrong, mum?” Angel asked her innocently, her cheeks puffed up as she blinked her eyes in anticipation.A deep breath escaped from Camelia and she patted her daughter’s head, her worries suddenly disappearing. “I'm fine, darling. Let's just get our bags.” She moved over to their luggage but was stopped abruptly by a deep voice behind her.“Let me get that.

Chapter 7

Francis' hands on the steering wheel tightened as he stared at Joe through the mirror; the little boy was staring innocently at his mum and through Hillary’s expression, he figured out the woman must be Camelia.He turned his attention back to the road while Hillary remained fidgeted on her seat. She cleared her throat lightly, wishing she could shut Joe's mouth. She never expected him to say that despite knowing how blunt he could be for his age. “It's just a friend,” she stammered, unable to look into the eyes of Francis. “Get some rest, Joe,” she patted his head, “Remember the ice cream I promised you.”This brought a smile to his face and he nodded happily, taking the posture of sleeping. Not long after, his light snores could be heard and only then did Hillary address the issue.“I saw Camelia in the plane,” she started, trying to be as nonchalant as she could. “Funny how we sat beside each other,” she chuckled half heartedly.“She looked different,” Hillary stopped to see Franc

Chapter 8

The air in the room stood still, each second growing longer as they both stared at each other in silence; none making an attempt to talk.While Francis glared at Hillary, slightly agitated knowing where the discussion was headed; Hillary stared at him, anticipating his response or maybe a console.“Let's not start, Hillary.” He broke their gaze and sat at the edge of the bed, not missing the bewildered and furious look on her face. He expected it, he never called her that unless the discussion was becoming heated and this was what was becoming of this. “Why not, Francis?” She retaliated, also calling out his name. “You know very well that she has been behaving like this since…” She paused for a moment to catch her breath. Her voice cracked and tears welled in the brim of her eyes. “Since we lost our David.” The tears dripped from her eyes, sweat forming on her forehead.“I'm tired of having this conversation with you every single time,” Francis raised his voice in anger, veins popp

Chapter 9

“You don't need to know that,” Gary retorted, his base voice blared in anger.Halsey smirked and snorted, knowing that she had touched a soft spot. Was it love she saw in his eyes? She tried to search into his eyes but found nothing- it was dull and full of anger.“You do know that her ex, Francis, still works there with his wife, right?” “I'm well aware,” he acknowledged.“Good,” She gulped down the last cup of water in the glass and took her bag to leave. “I guess that would be all, I have to take my leave.” Gary rose up at once too, taking his phone into his hands. “Alright, thanks for the help.” He shook hands with her and watched as she left the restaurant with a cold glint in his eyes.What was his relationship with Camelia? It was more than she could imagine. He called on the waiter to clear the bill before taking his leave.***Camelia chewed on the tip of her fingers as the circle continuously rolled in motion.“Shit!” She cursed. Why was the network slow at this critical

Chapter 10

A gasp escaped from her lips when she read out the note. She checked the letter for a sort of identification but the thick white paper was blank save the write up.She wondered who could have sent the red roses, it was unlikely to be Gary. A blue envelope caught her attention again and she gently pulled it out from the bouquet.“Hmm?” She was stunned at the calligraphic design she saw when she opened the envelope. Just like the note, something was written in it.But this was an invitation: Cordially invited to a dinner party of Mr Francis Noah and Mrs Hillary Noah.A smirk appeared and formed in her face as she stared at the invite. Things were about to get interesting.Who would have decided or had such effrontery to send it. It was obvious they wanted her at the dinner. She was still sitting on the couch when she heard the door click and open.It was Gary!“Hey!” She greeted, “Please come over here,” she waved the invite at him.“What's that?” Gary raised his brow in inquiry as he m
