Melanie took a walk outside to cool her head. Jamal asked Dennis to make sure that she was not alone.She saw that she was being followed but she ignored them. She sat at a place and began to think of the possible things that could be wrong with Jamal. She could not come up with anything reasonable. She went back home. When she got home, She turned on the television to watch it but could not concentrate on it. She turned it off. She headed out again and this time, she went to her parents' house. She got there and fell into Mrs. Alcantara's arms. Mrs. Alcantara took her in. She could not tell what was wrong with Melanie but she knew that Melanie was not okay. "What is wrong?" Mrs. Alcantara asked her, sitting her down on a chair. " It is Jamal, he has been acting strange and I can not tell what is going on with him nor will he say anything," she said in a rush. Mrs. Alcantara asked her to calm down. She didn't offer much because she felt it was work stress that was getting a lar
The office was filled. It was not in Jamal's office. They had a meeting. All of the team members of Jamal's company were in the meeting. Jamal's advisor said to him that a ceremony should be hosted in appreciation and acknowledgment of all the times that he had gotten in his lifetime. He has wanted to turn it down. But his advisor said it was time to make him a celebrant while he was alive. He also added that his staff deserves promotion as well.He gave in to it. Alex rushed into her office. She had just finished the meeting where the activities were being discussed. She thought they were kidding about hosting an event.She picked up her phone and called Madam Theresa. " Hello Aunt, Jamal is hosting an event. I wanted you to know about it" she said into the phone." Yes, so did Nathan heard from a source there. We are hoping we make a mark at that event" she said." It is an indoor event. No one outside of the workers in the company should be aware because there will be promotions
The hall was big enough to accommodate so many people. It was spacious and well-decorated. The staff of Jamal's company began to turn up. Jamal was at home. He was still waiting for Melanie to finish up. He wanted the both of them to go together. He waited for her until she was done with her makeup. She checked herself and saw how beautiful she looked. She went to meet Jamal in the car and they both left the house for the event. They got there because it was just a company event. The faces there were all familiar. The hall was beautifully decorated, and the lighting too added color to the hall. They got inside. They were offered a special section of the hall to be in. Jamal shook hands with all of his team members who he had worked with and the ones he is still working with. He sat down with Melanie by his side. He felt happy that he had given in to the advice that he host an event in honor of himself and his staff. Madam Theresa is waiting for the rest in the sitting room. Mart
She began to get soft as Jamal had other things to catch up with. Her stomach was getting bigger and it looked like there was nothing Alex could do about it.She had risk it all and landed her in the hospital but nothing happened to the baby. It looked like the baby had sworn to stay no matter what may happen. After the incident at the office. Melanie stayed more at home and then the boredom hit her. She had no choice but to get associated with Alex and Dave as it seemed like they were the only ones who cared about her. Clara was at loggerheads with her when she found out that she was hanging out with Alex, Alex of all persons. Their common enemy. It did not sit well with her. Alex saw how Clara was trying to convince Melanie about her, she had to friend zone Clara as well, and like a charm poured out, Clara began to like her. They hung out often, together with Dave. Melanie was a spender as she took them to places and got them lots of things. Dave went to Alex's house. He had m
Dennis had gone to inform Clara of the present condition of Melanie." Oh my Goodness" Clara exclaimed. " This is too much for Jamal to bear," Dennis said. He told her that they were going to the hospital. She had wanted to join them but Dennis asked her to stay back because he did not want Jamal to know that he already told her about Melanie's condition. He hugged Clara before leaving. Jamal walked slowly to the car. He entered the back seat while Dennis was by his side at the back seat as the driver came to drive them. Jamal gave the driver the address of the hospital and the driver drove them there. When they got there, he got into the hospital and was immediately recognized. He did not want to draw attention as his mind was on the well-being of his wife. He saw the doctor and asked him if he could go see her but he said no, he could not see her for the time being. " What happened to her," he asked, feeling very weak. " She was driving and the last thing on her phone was a c
Melanie was discharged from the hospital. Jamal thought it would be in her interest not to let her know about the rejection. She had to explain to him that she had seen the news about the burnt building and was trying to call the maid to ask them if the house was even safe, that was when she hit another car and had to be rushed to the hospital. Jamal had her rest her body. He helped her relax as he got anything she wanted for her. He did not let her lift a finger to do anything."Please tell Alex I am back home, and Clara too. I miss those girls," she said to Jamal. Jamal was hesitant. He remembered the night Alex was here. He had to do what she wanted. He called them and they came to the house. Alex was overjoyed to see her, or was it some fake, cheap happiness that was all over the place? She hugged Melanie. Clara went to the other side of Melanie and hugged her." I am so happy that you are back to us. I miss you greatly. I was so scared. I hoped every second that you would be
Melanie was now strong enough to come back home but their baby was kept in a safe room at the hospital. She always goes there every day to see the baby. Jamal told her not to go see the baby with anyone, none of her friends should follow her. She always went to the hospital alone. She had kept to it despite the pressure from Alex to follow her to see the baby, but Melanie stood her ground and said no. It made Alex angry. She badly wanted to see where the baby was kept. She tried she could with Jamal but Jamal and Melanie would not give in to her. Melanie decided to go hang out with Alex and Clara. She had wanted to loosen up a bit. She called them and gave them an address. It was a new place and she wanted to try it out with them. They all got there and were given good treatment. They admired the place and thought of how amazing the place was. They got seated as they began to make orders. " I can not believe that you would come here and not call us," Clara said. " No, that is
Jamal got home. He was tired but he needed to do something. He got home and saw that the house was quiet. He got inside. He entered the bedroom and saw that Melanie was already on the bed. " What do you want?" She asked him. He thought she was already asleep." Who is Dave?" Jamal asked her. Melanie was surprised. How did he know about Dave or had he known about him all these while? She was surprised and scared too. " Who is Dave? How did that come about" she said to him, hoping it was a mistake."Do not play dumb with me. You have been seeing Dave behind my back for a long time now, you were carrying my child yet you were with someone else?" He asked her. He was visibly angry. " Please, I am sorry. He came along as a friend and we got along very well, I didn't mean to hurt you" she pleaded with him. Alex was telling the truth? He thought. He was upset. He left the room to the guest room, he locked the door because Melanie was following him at his back. As he locked the door, sh
