61.Macy, like Richard, was also wondering why she had agreed like a child to follow him home. She always knew herself as a hard headed person and when she was coming back to DC from China, she had agreed with herself not be a wiping mat for anyone.And now, here she was in a man's house without any reason to. She knew Richard cared for her and that he had never hurt her but this was never in her goals or plans.Macy and Richard were two people whom she had never thought or planned about.When Mel called her mama, she froze because she didn't know how to react.She sat down and swallowed then looked at the maids who had brought food and the old man who was standing there and they were all pretending that they didn't hear anything.Mel was smiling from ear to ear and Macy didn't have the energy to reprimand her.She pretended that she hadn't heard what Mel had said and she took tissues from the table to wipe her sweaty hands."Baby, are you hungry? Let's eat," she said though her voice

62.Macy spent a half of the following day sleeping which she didn't have to mind because Mel was at school.The person who came banging at her door and called her awake was Asher."Sister in law, wake up," he called and Macy came out of her room guns blazing."What did you call me?" She asked and he could read that she wasn't in a good mood."Nothing. What did you hear? Or did you hear something you would like to become?" He teased and she jumped and flipped on air three hundred and sixty degrees.Do you love your teeth the way they are?" She asked as she stood effortlessly."Oh my God! What did my brother see in you with you? Does he know that you are a violent woman?" Asher asked as he took steps backwards as if he was seriously afraid of Macy."Second young master, I think you don't like your mouth where it is.I will reset it for you,"act said as she took steps towards him in a menacing way."Stop it. I come here to call you for lunch and this is how you treat your brother in law

63.If there was one thing Macy loved more than life itself, it was Sports cars. She could never get enough of them.She thus joined drag races with the hopes driving one and she drove many when she was on China and when she was newly returned to DC since her and Lion met in China when he had gone to visit a friend and for vacation and he saw her race.He immediately gave her his card and promised to take care of her when she returned home and he did.Macy just stopped when he bugged her day in day out about them being together.So, her seeing these many sports cars and in the swme garage, it made her heart leave her chest for a while."Oh my God! Oh God! Oh God! Oh God! Waaaaaaaa!" Macy screamed as she ran towards the garage and started touching and hugging this car to that to the other one until she couldn't take any more and tears of happiness fell down her cheeks."Why are you crying?" Asher, who had been standing on the side watching her with amusement all along asked."I am just

64.Richard trusted Macy. He was a believer in never judging someone by their past but by how they treat you from the moment you meet them.He thus wasn't interested in investigating Macy after he knew what he wanted: who she was and what she did.He did that because he was worried for Mel. Mel had just been hurt by her own mother and he didn't want a repeat of the same with Macy.But tonight, he had to make sure that she stayed safe and that he knew who she was with and what she did just in case something happened.That was why he put May and Asher on the job. Asher wasn't even put on the job, he volunteered to go with Macy.At exactly seven thirty in the evening, Asher was at his brother's mansion ready for the action.He was dressed in tight red leather pants, a red t-shirt and a nylon luminous blue jacket that produced weird sounds as he walked.He had on black boots that looked like he had just come off a horse from a hard day's work at a ranch."Uncle, what are you wearing? You

65.The night didn't go as Macy wanted or as she had planned. Asher was there to check her every move and she realized that Asher didn't mind that she could race at high speeds and that she was wild and she was sure that if Asher didn't mind, even Richard wouldn't.She thought that a family like theirs would want a cultured woman who was modest and not someone like her who was wild and outgoing.But if she had managed to do anything that night, it was to make a new fan in the person of Asher Armstrong.She wondered what to do next and then she had an idea.So, after they were done racing and she even won against Dela who thought she could take Macy's car, she and Asher went back home.She didn't take Dela's car because she realised that she didn't want to make enemies in this sector because she might need them any time.She knew her position wasn't yet guaranteed in the city and she didn't know what Angela's next move would be and so, she couldn't anger Lion or his people and that wa

128. By the time Richard and Macy were done with entertaining the guests, time was far much spent.They thus decided to retire to their room and then leave for their honeymoon the next morning. Richard carried Macy across the threshold as was traditionally unacceptable for a groom to let his wife to enter the door walking in her first day as a wedded wife.Macy was so happy that she felt as if whatever she had going through was being compensated. By the time Richard was placing her on the bed that had been decorated with red roses, her ribs were tired from all the laughing.She was happy.She had two children and a man who adored her. She could not ask for more. “Do you want to take a bath first?” Richard asked her after helping her take off the high heeled shoes she had been wearing.“Yes. I will go first,” she told him.“Okay. I will help you prepare the bathtub," he offered."No. That's okay. I want to have a shower because I am tired. I just want to lay down,” she said and he n

127. The moment was intimate and all Richard could see was Macy. He didn't want to think of everyone gathered in the hall because he hated crowds and the reason why he did all this was for her.Another reason he held this wedding on an island was to make sure that not many people attended.The air was charged with excitement as those gathered waited to hear what Richard would say. Some wondered if it would be as heart touching as Macy's or if it would be blunt. As Richard took a deep breath, the crowd fell silent, anticipation hanging in the air. He turned to Macey, her eyes sparkling with joy, and began to speak the words he had carefully crafted in his heart. “Macy,” he started, his voice steady yet brimming with emotion, “from the moment I met you, I knew you were the one I wanted to spend my life with. You are my rock, my confidante, and my greatest adventure. With you, I have found a love that I never knew existed.”Tears glimmered in Macey’s eyes as Richard continued, recountin

Please find it in your heart to forgive us," Mrs Phillips said and Macy just stood there both embarrassed and angry.She wondered why they had to make a scene even though she had allowed them in.“We are also thankful that you allowed us to your wedding. Thank you so much darling," her father added.“Just sit and let us continue," Macy said feeling all embarrassed because there were other people in the hall who weren't family and although it wasn't a secret now after the live broadcast of Angela washing her dirty linen in public that these people had neglected their own daughter and nurtured the one who had killed their own son, she wasn't ready to deal with them.This was supposed to be her day and not theirs.“No, darling. We won't sit unless you say that you have forgiven us," her mother, Mrs Phillips, said and she sighed.“You do realise that today is supposed to be about me and not you, right?" Macy asked the two wh

125. Macy couldn't believe that this day was here. All her life ever since she found out that she had slept with a stranger and got pregnant, she never thought that she would ever get a man to love her but here she was.Not only did this man love her but was also the father of her child-ren.She followed Richard's footsteps until they came to the raised dais where her brother, Asher, May, Mel and Jared were standing.For the first time ever, Macy got to see May in a flowing dress.She had always seen May with leather pants or jeans pants and leather jackets. But now, she really looked like a girl.Macy stood on the left side of Richard where she was directed and they faced the people.She hadn't gotten the time to look at this place since they obviously had got there at night and she hadn't gone around since, well, she was getting ready for this.The hall wasn't as big and she even didn't know that they were on an island but she felt the waves hit rocks and she, at first, thought that

In this life, we have plenty of challenges and heartbreaking events that we at times feel like we won't be able to move on from but as long as we have theones we love right beside us it makes it all worth it.One of life's gifts is finding someone you can share the rest of your life with, someone who will be there for you through thick and thin and love you for who you arenot what you have.Richard had found such a person who was currently lying in his arms. He wanted nothing more but to spend the rest of his life with this woman and no one else. As he lay on the bed his gaze lingered on Macy with a hard to describe smile on his face. He couldn't believe that he had been this lucky.He also smiled when he remembered when he was drugged by his brother. He almost killed his brother but now, he was happy and he would even reward Asher with the latest Tesla that he had been asking for.They had arrived at his uncle's villa on the Indi

123. “Mom, hurry up, we have to leave," Mel hurried her mother who was still getting ready. It wasn't that Macy wasn't ready it was just that she had just been informed by her man that they were leaving in an hour's time and they were going for a vacation. “What should I carry? Why didn't you tell me at least yesterday and I would have gotten ready!" She had complained wondering where to start. “Don't worry about that. It was a surprise and we already packed for you. All we want is for you to go with us," he has said and the children had beamed. “Yes ma, just wear something and let's leave. This will be my first vacation with my real family," Jared had urged and that was how Macy had found herself getting ready and now, she was wondering what to wear because she had even forgotten to ask where they were going. “Where are we going again? What do I wear?" She shouted from her bedroom and Richard shouted back, “just wear anything. One of those cute dresses of yours.” "Yes mama. The

122. Since Macy said yes to marrying Richard and they got their boy back, Richard had become like Macy's second cloth.He would be wherever she was and if he wasn't lying on her if she was sitting, he would be touching her here and there provided he could feel her.He even spent his days in the studio watching her film but Macy didn't mind although people started talking.For the first time, the mysterious first son of the Armstrong family started showing up in public.This clingy behaviour went on for a month though it wasn't as severe as before. He stopped following a lot but he would casually send cute texts and pictures whenever they were apart.All of a sudden, the ice cube who had no social media accounts created them and shared with the world that he was the happiest man alive.His IG moments were always filled with things like 'My Beautiful fiancè made me breakfast today #inlove' followed by a picture.

"A wedding?" Ash asked, low-set ginger brows furrowing even deeper."Why so fast?" He shouted this time."A wedding," Richard said with a slow grin,and a collective set of gasps filled theair. "I'm gonna marry her on the thirtyfirst this month. I want to belong to her, legally. I want to say those vows you see in movies, to give her not just my mind and body and heart, but the very essence of my soul. I want to give it all since I'm in this relationship for the forever haul.""Er, a-a-actually, uh," Kyle stammered, looking flustered, "well, um... y-yeah,we could do that. But don't you think that we could give my sister some time to prepare?
