Life was hard and it wasn't even a joke. Ray and Elsa had to move from the barn and the Larry's property all together. Although Mr Larry said they were free to use any other building, Elsa kicked against it. She knew her family. Eventually, they would claim they wanted to rear new animals or stock more feed or start sone business. Any excuse to get them to leave. She preferred to sleep on the streets than swallow the insult and humiliation. They were currently moving into the store he got for her. Luckily he paid for it instead of renting so they had nothing to worry about.It was their property. It lacked a lot of essentials like space, bathroom, kitchen and even a free corner to drop their belongings and lay their heads but they couldn't complain. It was better than nothing. Ray didn't relent. He began job hunting once again. He knew that nothing was guaranteed in business. There were going to be days where they barely made sales and he would need to provide for them. Aside tha

Elsa had to resort to the one person her father taught her to look down on. The traditional healer. All her life, she had been made to believe he was some sort of diabolical man. Many said he summoned demons to heal those who came to him for help in exchange for their destinies.None of that mattered to her at that point. If he wanted her destiny, she would give him. She didn't care if he had to summon a legion of demons to achieve that but she needed Ray alive. If her father could turn his back on her, it didn't matter what a spiritualist would do to her. Toyi was the town outcast. The only man with a trailer home. Anyone outside would have considered it decent but the town folks were different.His strange collection of objects and leaves made things worse. When he introduced himself as a traditional healer, they immediately assumed he was some spiritualist with mystic powers.Especially when he healed a boy who had no hope of seeing again. One day, a cancer patient was brought

“You mean there is a chance that my problem might still be I've and not dead like everybody thinks he is?” Elizabeth could barely contain her joy now.“Don't forget the possibility that he could also be a doppelganger and nothing like your brother.” She didn't say that to ruin Elizabeth's mood. It was so she wouldn't get her hopes too high to have them dashed in a second. He could be Zade but there was a higher chance he might not. “But what if he is? I have a good feeling about this, Helen. My brother could really be alive,” Elizabeth chattered on without paying attention to Helen. Helen wondered if she made a mistake. Perhaps she would have found some other way to get the DNA test done before informing Elizabeth. The girl was way too happy to bear any form of disappointment.“I only beg you listen to me first. You can believe whatever you want to but Toyi said we have to get some of your grandfather's hair for tests.” “That's easy. I just need to give him one of those teddy bea

His memories were back. Every single thing.From Adera to Elsa to accident. His fiance was dead and life denied him the opportunity to mourn her properly. Instead, it pushed him into the arms of another woman. One he couldn't deny his feelings for. At some point, it looked like fate. Or maybe Adera led him to her replacement because she didn't want him to live in pain. Whatever it was, he was determined to mourn. To pay his last respects to the woman that stole his heart at first sight. As for Elsa, she was his wife now. He was in love with her. Letting her go was never going to cross his mind. He just had to assure her that the feelings were real. Zade was well aware of the guilt. It was evident in her eyes. Even though she had nothing to do with the condition, she felt like she led him astray from the life he was supposed to have. He hated the tears in her eyes and he told himself he was going to wipe them off. Everyone who caused her pain would be duly punished. “Now that yo

“Why do you keep staring at me like that?” Zade chuckled. “Because you just spent 10k and you're acting like it's nothing. Where did you get such an amount from? If we invested that money into business, we would…”“Money for business has already been set aside, El. Stop worrying. We barely had what to eat in the last few weeks, this is an opportunity to enjoy the fruit of your labor,” he told her. Elsa squinted her eyes at him. Fruit of her labor? What labor had she involved herself in that amounted to 10k?“I know you're excited that you're not as poor as you believed, but come on, you are spending lavishly and I don't like it. We would have gotten all this in the market at a cheaper rate,” she told him. The amusement reflecting in his eyes got her pissed. He was laughing at her. He thought she was a clown for asking him to tone down his spending.She wasn't far from the truth. Zade’s daily expenses ran from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars on a daily so hearing her co
