Feran knew something was off. The sudden worried expression his aunt had pulled, trying to hide her anxiety made him more troubled each passing second as Zoey kept quiet, glancing around their space.

"Aunt Zoey," Feran said, breaking the tense silence that had lasted for about a few minutes. He held her hands which she had clasped and placed on the table and he gave her a comforting smile which made her smile too. " Your dear nephew is here, so what's the worry for? Tell me what's wrong," Feran demanded.

Zoey took in a deep long breath and nodded.

"Feran, you know we've been living in New Orleans since your uncle, Greg's father passed away. He had been managing the business there until three years ago. We had to return Green Hills because the business he was managing fumbled after Greg encountered some disguised foreign businessmen and all in the name of growing the business, he had given them a huge amount of money but they disappeared with it. We had to sell our house there to pay

    "What are you both trying to say to me now?" Laura asked in bewilderment, almost raising her voice. "Are you daft? Don't you understand what I'm trying to say to you? Don't you have the brain to think we'll without waiting for a clear explanation. I got the divorce papers ready for you since I know you would be reluctant to get them ready," ma'am Miguel said. "Yes, your grandmother cares for you, Laura. Don't rile her now by acting dumb. You need to sign those papers and get Feran to sign them too," Mitchel said. "Yes and free yourself from the shackles of an unpleasant life, useless marriage and forever unhappiness. Divorce Feran and marry Lucas. To know that's what I truly want now," ma'am Miguel added. "Grandmother, but I…" "No, Laura. First tell me, did Lucas propose to you a day ago or not?" Ma'am asked and Laura opened her mouth to say something but no words came out from her mouth and she closed it. "You don't need to think of a lie to say because I know we'll that he did p

    Feran was lost in deep thoughts as he stared directly into Laura's eyes after she had thrown the divorce papers at his face. "Sign them. I'm leaving for the usual Miguel family dinner," Laura said, dropping the pen back into her purse. "And you're not invited," she added with gnashed teeth and left the room. Feran was utterly speechless. It seemed like Laura's act had left him wordless and he didn't know what to do. He just stood at the same spot Laura had left him, staring at the door, dazed. Laura walked out of the house met her parents standing by an Uber Frank had called to take them over to the Miguel mansion. "Oh my dear, you're looking gorgeous as ever," Mitchel cooed when Laura walked up to them. "I can't be less proud of being the mother to sch s beauty goddess like you, you know, dear." "Stop flattering her, Mitchel. If I have to say, you're being overdramatic," Frank said and Mitchel frowned at him. "What did you just say? I'm being overdramatic?" Mitchel asked, read

    Maam Miguel chuckled at Feran's threats which she felt were just mere empty threats, making Mark resume laughing and soon they all were laughing again at Feran."You all just watch out for yourselves," Feran said, almost yelling and everyone went silent. "I'll come for you all," Feran muttered but they didn't hear him clearly and squinted at him, thinking he would rephrase what he said but he just cast hot gazes at them."Feran, you're a snake without a head. And you're completely useless. You were never useful to any of us nor to your wife. Now get the hell out of my mansion before I get you thrashed out!" Ma'am Miguel bawled, pointing at the huge entrance door. She motioned at Feran to leave but he didn't take any step and she was slightly appalled by his bold acts."You call me a snake without a head, right?" Feran asked and took some steps forward to ma'am Miguel. "Now watch what this headless snake will do to you and your family," he whispered to her, causing her to cast a glare

    Sir Leo couldn't say a word though he was less shocked than his wife, Zita, to see Feran. There was a three minute silence that filled the room before Feran walked up to them and shrugged."What? Are you both really surprised to see me?" He asked, glancing around the living room for his other relatives."No. Are you back for good? You'll be living with us onwards, right?" Sir Leo asked."Obviously, that's why I am here," Feran said and sir Leo couldn't stop himself from laughing with Zita. His mother became emotional and just kept staring at him with teary eyes in immense happiness."Everyone, everyone!" Zita hollered, heading to the staircase. "Get down everyone!" She cupped her month with her hands and called out to each person to get down as she stepped on the first step."Feran!" Lovisa yelled as she rushed to the top stairs with Anna and they saw Feran down the living room."Oh my gawd!" Anna exclaimed and she jogged down the stairs with Lovisa and they ran up to Feran. "Feran, y

    "Are you kidding with us now, Mark?" Ma'am Miguel asked, not believing what Mark had just said. Mark shook his head and stretched out his phone to his grandmother. Ma'am Miguel took it and read the breaking news on the screen. She was flustered to know that the company that revoked the contract with the family company has now beaten Lucas Company to it and took away the deal worth billions of dollars from them. "Grandmother, it's said that the mighty Anderson conglomerate got the back of that new company, F.A- Globe," Kayla said and Mark nodded to her, confirming what Kayla had said. "It's stated that that new company is also one of their companies," Mark said. "Shit! No! I've lost it all!" Lucas yelled in frustration as he clasped his hands against his ears, trying to pull himself together. "I need to see to the root of this. I can't take this. I'll head to my company." Lucas grabbed his car key from the couch he sat on earlier and rushed out of the house. Laura gave everyone an e

    Feran was throwed off balance a little by the expression his parents, grandfather and aunt wore at the moment. "Hello?" Feran waved at them causing their parted lips to press close. "What's with your expressions?" Feran asked, dropping his shoulder as they glanced at each other."Feran, I just learnt about this and…" Zoey tried to explain but her brother, sir Leo stopped her."Feran, what exactly do you know now?" Sir Leo asked and Feran slid his hands into his pockets and walked up to his grandfather lying on the bed. He stared at him for a while and returned his gaze to his father."I know grandfather is suffering from insomnia due to his heart condition," Feran answered and sir Leo looked away and heaved a deep sigh of relief. "And…""And what?" Sir Leo asked, darting his eyes to Feran."What else do you know, Feran?" Zita asked and Feran motioned at his grandfather."And I know that grandfather is refusing to take proper treatment," Feran said and his parents, aunt and grandfathe

    When Mitchel didn't utter a word for almost a minute, Laura shook her head and chuckled in a taunting manner."You really don't want to go back to not being able to go for your weekly facial treatments, almost- everyday shopping, city cruise and movie watching every weekend in the cinemas. You've been enjoying all that again since I agreed to marry Lucas and signed the divorce papers. Now you are scared that everything you'll enjoy in the future will go to the drain soon,hm? You're sometimes ridiculous, mother…""SHUT UP!" Mitchel cut in with a bawl. "You've been saying gibberish now. I guess you've changed and become pompous ever since you got engaged to Lucas. You're feeling like the almighty queen of England now, right?" Mitchel asked, sarcastically."Excuse me,but the lady time I checked I'm actually a queen, not really though but I might not be a true queen but I've actually become a queen in the means that I'm going to be marrying Lucas and I'll be the future heiress to MME," La

    A smile was plastered on Feran's glowing face when he stepped out of the elevator when it stopped on the floor of his office. He headed to the office with the manager behind and couldn't help but to chuckle when the shocking look Laura had on her face when he ordered them to be kicked out of the company flashed on his mind. When he walked into the office, the manager observed him for a while before asking, reluctantly: "Sir, are you okay?" Feran was a little bit surprised by his question and shrugged. "What do you mean by that?" Feran asked and coming to think of why the manager asked him that question he laughed softly when the manager said nothing but stared at him. "Because of my ex wife?" Yhe manager nodded slowly and Feran waved. "Come on, forget that. I'm super happy I got to see them being dragged out. They should be expecting more than that from me," Feran said. "Get me my schedule updates and other vital information concerning the first meeting I'll be having today with

    Laura couldn't believe what Elijah had asked for. His eyes were gloomy and filled with the intention to kill, and she knew that this was not going to end well. Having the kind of feeling of somewhat fear in her, her heart throbbed furiously, as the words sank deep and her head absorbed the thought of what he just said. How come he still wanted to kill Feran? She didn't understand what the hell he was talking about. Her eyes twitched as she heard the words, and her heart couldn't take it fully. "I'm not going to do what you say, Elijah. I can't believe you still want to take Feran down. What the hell are you doing? I know you don't know what you are doing, or maybe you don't know the repercussions of it. You should stop having those sinister thoughts in your head, Elijah, or you might end up killing your already black soul," she said. "You know, I only spent a year in jail and did you know what I was thinking all those while? Feran. I was thinking of how to destroy him. I think

    "Elijah has escaped. I'm sure he's going to think of hurting one of us," Zoey said, getting scared. "No, Aunt. He won't hurt any of us," Feran said. He quickly called Fernando, who had taken Lovisa and his son, Frazier, to the mall. He ordered him to get them back home safely and ended the call after telling him to tighten the security of the house when he returns. Zita eyed Laura. "I'm sure you know that he was going to escape, right?" "You can't be trusted, Laura. You're a sly woman!" Zoey's accused. "No, Mrs. Anderson. I had no idea. And you don't have to worry. Feran is here. I won't think of joining hands with Elijah to cause harm to any of you because you all are genuinely good," Laura said. "I know my presence is not that appreciated here so I would like to take my leave so you guys can celebrate the girl's birthday well." "Sorry about the accusations, Laura," Jeana said.

    Laura was speechless for a while after Mary revealed who sent the flowers. Unlike her mother who was obviously In a rage, Laura found it so nice of Feran and Jeana to send her flowers."Give me the card," Laura asked, stretching out her hand to Mary."Laura, you shouldn't…" Mitchel paused and glared at Mary as she gave the card to Laura.Laura smiled and read the message on the card.'Hello, Laura, we are saying a big congratulations on your safe delivery. Though it's a bit late, try to overlook the time you got these flowers and rather accept it with our sincere joy for you. Hope your child is doing well. Do take care of yourself. Our regards to your child. Your well-wishers…. Jeana and Feran.'A drop of tears rolled down Laura's cheek and Mitchel was surprised when she lifted up her head, Laura chuckled and sniffed."I can't believe they would wish me well and send flowers to me. This is really great.""What's wrong with you, Laura?" Mitchel asked, jerking up to her feet. "What's go

    A month later, Feran got a call from one of the companies manager. He received some bad news that one of the company workers had stolen an important journal. "What's wrong?" Jeana asked after they had breakfast. She saw the look on his face despite him telling her that all was well, she still didn't believe him."I'll go to work now." Feran arose from the couch and went to the bathroom to ease himself, when he came out, he saw Jeana dressed up."Are you going somewhere?" He asked. She gave him a strange look and nodded."Your sisters will be visiting soon. You don't need to go over there to see them." He thought she wanted to go pay her sisters a visit."I am not going to pay anyone a visit. I'm coming along with you, Feran," she said."Excuse me?""Yes?""What did you just say?""You heard me right, Feran. Let's go to work." Feran took.his office bag."No. You are going no where with me," Feran refused."What is wrong with you, Feran?""You are pregnant, Jeana. You shouldn't be work

    Silence filled the room after Laura had left. One after the other, they all came forward to apologize to Jeana."Jeana, dear. I'm sorry I didn't even utter a word when you left," Greg said. "Please forgive me.""No, Uncle Greg. You did nothing wrong." Jeana shook her head."We all didn't bother to check things from your perspective but kept quiet after Zita humiliated you and asked you to leave," Zoey said and sighed. "Jeana, I'm sorry. I'm the worst person to you.""Come on, Aunt. You're my best person," Jeana flattered."Laura had good timing but her future is ill-timed now. That sly woman should never have anyone to call 'love'. She doesn't deserve anyone's love," Anna said."You all don't need to apologize, please. I'm the one expected to apologize. I didn't even get to apologize properly to you all before leaving the house. I'm sorry I deceived you all. Honestly, I didn't want to do that before. I wasn't going to keep the truth from you all for long. I wanted to tell you all befo

    Laura couldn't bring herself to admonish herself nor could she believe that Feran had any evidence of her. She felt he was lying and was just trying to mess with her mind to force her to spill out the truth."What are you talking about, Feran?" She asked when she found her voice. She glanced at everyone and fixed her gaze on Zita whose stern look was pushing her to quiver but she clenched her fists, lifting up her chin and shaking her head. "F…Feran is saying something which I can't understand. Feran, stop it, okay?" She pointed at Feran. He held her finger and pulled it down.He took out a report from an envelope and held it up to her face. "This is your original pregnancy test." He gave the report to Zita."Laura is actually five months pregnant now. She lied that she was six months pregnant and brought a made-up pregnancy report."Zita went through the report and gave it to Zita who went through it and passed it onto the other family members."Lie! You're lying, Feran! You want to

    Feran was in his office when Fernando walked in to give him some new information."Sir, I've been keeping an eye on Jeana as you said," Fernando informed."How's she doing?""She and her sisters are struggling to live.""What?" Feran arose, mystified. "It's been two months since we parted ways and she hasn't bothered to call or come to me for help.""I know her well not to have another misconception about her. Sir, Jeana is a woman of self-respect and values. I'm sure she doesn't want to have anything to do with you again so as to not cause any problems."Feran sighed and sat down. "What has she been doing to sustain herself and her sisters?""She's been working in a cafe as a waitress for over a month now. Her immediate younger sister, Kayla, also started working a part-time job.""What else do you have about her?""I don't think she's in a good shape.

    When Laura entered the car to head back to the Anderson house, her phone beeped. It was a message from an unknown number. She guessed who the sender was before opening the message.'Meet me now in the jailhouse,' that was the message. Laura tossed her phone to the seat and locked her fingers."Elijah," she muttered.The driver tilted his head and asked her."Ma'am, did you say something?""Hm, no. Start driving," Laura said. While he was driving back to the Anderson house, she thought of a way to get him to stop the car and leave so she could go to see Elijah. She didn't want the driver to take her there because she knows for sure that Feran was going to know about it and would find out that she came to visit Elijah, and if that happens, he might start thinking there's a connection between her and him and start doubting her.She didn't want any of that to happen. She thought harder when the driver was just ten minutes away from the house and finally sneered when she got an idea.She s

    Anita was surprised and so excited that she kept stealing glances at Feran while he was driving. She couldn't believe he was taking her out for the first time. She wondered if his mother had asked him to.When she got a hunch that Feran's mother, Zita, must have asked him to look after her well and make her happy, she smiled broadly at Feran who returned her smile with a fake half smile that seemed genuine to Anita.While Feran kept driving, then it hit Anita. She glanced at him and saw he had a smile on his face. She was amazed and wondered if he had any other intention. 'No, he wouldn't be thinking of dumping me elsewhere, would he?' she thought, and glancing at Feran, chills went down her spines. She recalled how her family treated him. The times he was maltreated by her family, all flashed in her mind and her lips parted when she recalled when he promised them that he was going to get revenge and make them pay."Feran, where are you taking me to?" She asked suddenly, panting. Fe
