Chapter 6
The loud bang from the door disrupted the activities of the couples, as they were startled.The man hurriedly covered himself with a blanket, leaving Yvonne exposed.Andre’s eyes were red as he glared at them.“What are you doing here? Who bailed you from going to jail?” The man questioned. He was no other than Willow Smith.“Andre, what are you doing here? You should be in jail.” Yvonne said as she grabbed her panties.“You couldn’t even wait for us to divorce, and you’re…” Andre pursed his lips into a thin line, his veins bulging out of his skin.“You could have just waited for us to divorce! Why did you have to sleep with him? Why did you have to cheat on me?” Andre fired.Yvonne’s confidence returned and a sardonic grin crept up the corners of her lips.“What are you, Andre? Because of a pathetic loser like you, I was demoted to the position of an ordinary assistant marketing manager, I lost my face and respect.”“And just last night that you went to jail, my former position was restored in the family. Just yesterday with Smith, my life suddenly turned around for good. Just get away with your bad luck!” Yvonne retorted.Andre was quiet as he listened to Yvonne’s silly excuses. So, he was a piece of bad luck which has been causing her woes, right?Amidst the bantering, Smith was quiet but his fingers were rubbing the tips of Yvonne’s nipples, Andre knew Smith was doing that on purpose to irk him.Yvonne even moaned at that.“Let's divorce now that you are here. The papers is over there on the table. Just input your signatures at the designated areas.” Yvonne said.Andre heaved a sigh after keeping quiet for a short moment. “Fine if you want a divorce.”“But, I want to know if you’re divorcing me because your family wants you to, because of your ex-boyfriend, or because it was your choice.”Yvonne was quiet for a while but, then answered. “All of the above. But, my choice and I’m happy.”Andre didn’t utter any words as headed towards the table to sign after perusing through the contents.“I hope you don’t regret this!” He spat,“I’ll only regret if I end up marrying a loser like you. I’ll suffer for the rest of my life. With Willow as my husband, I’ll enjoy a longtime wealth, so the choice is obvious even to the blinds.”“Now get out. I’m damn wet!”Andre obliged and stormed out of the room but accidentally, he bumped into Hannah with his rigid body which caused Hannah a great fall.“Ouch! Were you blind to notice me?” Hannah cursed out loudly.Yvonne was startled by the noise and rushed out to see her mother on the floor.She turned to Andre and asked, “Are you stupid? Do you want to visit the prison?”“How dare you hit my mother? A dog biting at the hands that feed it, uh?” Yvonne fumed with anger.Willow hurried over to assist Hannah, but Yvonne declined, saying it was Andre’s mess to clean.Seeing this reaction from Yvonne pierced Andre’s heart so deeply, that he wanted to burst into tears. She has never loved him. He truly has plans for Yvonne and was going to help her stand out among her families, but she was just a classless whore.“Now, come here and lift my mom,” Yvonne ordered.Andre paused at his pace and said. “I’m no longer indebted to you. I’ve paid my debts of servitude, no longer the dog you could order around.”Andre said this and strode towards the entrance door. He paused, then whirled. “I was going to let you know that I have plans for you. Plans that will make every of the Sparrow’s family crouched at your feet.”Mesmerized at Andre’s words, Yvonne yelled. “Lies! What plans could a useless man like you have, huh?”Andre drew in a deep breath. “It’s useless to know, anyway. We are divorced. See you at the top.”Andre kicked the door open and stormed off, ignoring the background screams of Yvonne.~~~~As Andre walked, he couldn’t help the pain in his heart. He was going to stop a taxi when his phone rang.He picked up the first call, listening to what the person was saying over the line. He frowned upon the caller’s words, and turmoil filled his heart.Andre’s heart almost dropped to the base of his tummy at the sudden revelation. The people who were behind his imprisonment were no other than, his mother-in-law, and Willow Smith.His fists clenched in fury, and a darker version of his aura spreads through the air, sending chills into the spines of the people around him.‘Gosh! What such of cold is this?’ They chattered.Andre let go of his anger, and the chilling sensations dropped.“I’m going to crush the Sparrow’s family and the Willow’s family for daring to set me up,” Andre murmured under his breath.He dialed a contact on his phone and said, “I’m kind of troubled, need to see you.”“Young master, kindly send us your location and I’ll come pick you up at the moment.” The voice sounded over the line.Andre apprised the caller of his location and ended the call.Half an hour later, a white Roll-Royce stopped on the street. Thirty meters away from Andre.Edwin in a tailored black suit, stepped down from the car and ended towards a low-class restaurant.It didn’t take Edwin a minute to recognize Andre who was seated outside the restaurant.“Young master-“ Edwin was going to call but froze at the gestures of Andre.He had signaled him to stop.Edwin obliged and walked towards Andre, he bowed showing his respect.“I am so stranded right now. Do you have any money? I want to borrow some,”Edwin stood and his eyebrows furrowed in shock.Borrow money?Was the young master joking or what? All his wealth was given to him by his madam.Chapter 7Edwin took out a golden bank card from his purse, with the word ‘Emily’ written in black on the background. He held it low in his hands.“Young master, this is a special card made by our Portland conglomerate. All expenses under the conglomerate are free. There’s also a credit limit of 1 billion dollars and the password is your birthday.”“Please use it first.”Andre hesitated a bit before taking the card.“What about my mother?” Andre asked.“Madam is fine and hoping to see you face to face someday,” Edwin answered as he lowered his head.There was a short silence before Andre finally spoke.“Tell my mother not to worry about me. Tell her to fix a convenient day for us to eat within the range of next week.”“Yes, yes master,” Edwin replied as he watched Andre walk away, then stopped a taxi.Edwin knew his madam would rejoice greatly upon hearing his son's request.~~~Getting in the taxi, Andre breathed a sigh of relief.17 years of hardship of hardship had passed and it wa
Chapter 8Yvonne rolled her eyes at his words and scoffed. How dare Andre threatened her with jail? “Bring it up!” She clapped. “Your level of confidence even when you’re at the brink of your downfall is something worthy to learn about; impressive.” “Input the card and put the password. If the password is incorrect, you’ll be arrested. If the pin is correct, then I’ll go to jail.” Yvonne uttered.A chorus of gasps escalated into the atmosphere at Yvonne’s words. How could she utter such a thing?Who’ll come to a big store to purchase something with a bank card without knowing the password?They couldn’t help but ponder.“Yvonne dear, you should renounce your words. You don’t worth going to jail because of this miserable being!” Willow tried to persuade Yvonne, but she was obstinate in her decision. She refused and was resolute in her decision.“Don’t you worry Willow, I knew Andre like the back of my palm.” Yvonne moved a step nearer to Willow. “He doesn’t even have a bank accoun
Chapter 9Andre’s anger dropped a bit as he sensed the genuine in Willow’s voice. He turned to face the men in black and said.“Who are you guys? Why surround me? You should pave the way and let me pass.” Andre instructed, his grip tightening on the shopping bag.The men took a step back and fell to their knees, with their heads bowed.This act of them stunned Andre and Willow.“Divine Doctor Mayer, we beseech you to follow us. Our old master is dying, he needs your mighty healing.”Andre’s eyes squinted in shock. Mayer? They must have mistaken him for someone else. His name is Andre Spencer and not Mayer.“I’m sorry, I’m not Mayer. You must have mistook me for someone else.” Andre said, trying to bypass them but his knees were held down.“Doctor, we are sure it’s you.” The one who had held Andre by his knees said in a graver tone. “You told us to come here at exactly 8 pm.”Andre’s eyes widened. He didn’t tell anyone to visit him. They must have mistaken him.Willow on the other hand
Chapter 10Andre overhead how the lady was being insulted, and his heart weighed with ache.He was once in this lady’s shoes. An object of ridicule in the hands of his mother-in-law and wife.He knew the doctor was going to fumble, but decided to stay quiet for a while.Just as they approached the lady, the man from earlier on stopped to bow his head to the lady.“Young mistress, this is the man evict you’ve instructed us to bring.” The man announced Andre’s presence to the lady,The lady’s once dark face brightened up with a wash of excitement, but this expression didn’t last long as she beheld Andre's physique.Andre was dressed in a casual outfit, although he looked charming but too unbelievable.How could a man like Andre heal her grandfather? He doesn’t look as powerful as the old man had described him.Back then, she heard about an ancient physician whose hands had healed several people, and her grandfather was sick. Sasha asked around and was directed to a remote village.Coinc
Chapter 11Patriarch Rollins rolled his eyes from his granddaughter to Andre, who was dressed in casual yet luxurious attire."Is this who you have brought to treat me?" He inquired with a hint of mockery in his tone.Sasha nodded shamefully, lowering her gaze."I thought you were sensible, but your actions proved me wrong. Did not he seem like a con man to you?" His tone was agitated as he asked. "Grandpa, please believe in me and allow him to treat you." Sasha went to her knees and pleaded, but was cut off by her uncle's yell."Come on, shut up!" To calm things down, Patriarch Rollins raised his hands in the air. "What makes you believe he can save me?" Rollins inquired as he coughed blood, nearly passing out.Sasha responded after swallowing a lump in the back of her throat. "Because he is a Chinese doctor, and I believed in him.""You…" Rollins was about to yell at her when he had his ninth heart seizure of the day.Sasha's uncle instructed the doctor to restore Rollins' health
Chapter 12.It was like a joke when Andre had said he will wake Patriarch Rollins, so they all laughed at him and stared as if he had grown four head."Wake up a dead man?" They rolled their eyes and scoffed at him. They turned and gave Sasha a menacing stare. "Sasha, what sort of man did you bring here? A con man? Was it necessary to bring him here to humiliate yourself?"Sasha's self-esteem plummeted, and she wished that the earth would open up and swallow her.She would not have brought Andre if she had known what kind of man he was."Please take me to the old man. I will wake him up; he is still alive.""Are you too dumb to understand that my father is no longer alive?" Badmus yelled, a vein protruding from his forehead.Sasha seized Andre's hands and dragged him to a corner. She released her hands and looked into his eyes. "Could you please explain what you mean by my grandfather being alive? How certain are you? If you are sure, I can take you in there with no one stopping me.
Chapter 13They all stared at Andre with a menacing tone. “I can’t feel the pain in my veins anymore. I felt whole and sinewy!” Patriarch Rollins cried out, and the tensions in the air plummeted.IThey all rushed towards Patriarch Rollins, their hands tightly wrapped around his waist. They scrutinized his entire body and sees that it was true.Patriarch Rollins even sprang to his feet, his face warmed up with smiles. He threw his limbs and leg in the air.“Which of the doctor did this?”“Father_”“Grandpa, it’s was the divine doctor whom I’ve bought to treat you.” Sasha said to interrupt her uncle.“Is that true?” Patriarch Rollins rolled his eyes to his son, Badmus.Badmus wanted to praised himself , but Sasha was quick to cast him a glaring pairs of eyes, so he shut licked his bottom lips and shut up.The rest of the family having wait for Badmus to speak, have no other options but to answer yes.“Yes, father. The young doctor from…”Sasha shoved her phone in the air at Badmus, an
Chapter 14“We will just run a low-key wedding for them,” Badmus said to patriarch Rollins. “You do not expect us to waste our money on their useless wedding. If Sasha had wanted an elaborate wedding, she would have married from a wealthy family and not an ordinary employee.”Drake added.“I would have loved to invite top family to attend Sasha’s wedding.” Patriarch Rollins said to the ongoing conversations.Both Badmus and Drake's eyes widened in shock. They clenched their fist and gritted their teeth in detest.Why would Sasha be regarded as a crucial being? Her father was just useless anyway.“Father, why would you invite top family when your granddaughter has decided to marry a poor man who would not elevate our status? Won't other prominent families cut off with us if they ever found out about this marriage? I'll advise you to think about the disadvantages and then the benefits of hosting a buoyant wedding for Sasha.” Badmus said with rage in his heart but he managed to hide it.
