CHAPTER 45

“A lawsuit?” Jayden laughed out loud. “What game did she play that hurt Baron so badly?

He seemed to be enjoying the sorrow his ex-girlfriend was going through recently.

He scrolled through his phone and found the news again, clearly written on Tabloids. Amber was standing beside him in his office. She was now his secretary and Project manager.

“Well, I feel this has a lot to do with a personal vendetta. But my only question is why did she have to go and visit him again after hurting him that much with the breakup.” Amber asked with curiosity, dancing in her eyes.

“I cannot tell. But it does seem like she wants something from him,” Jayden had that mocking laughter on his face.

“I guess so too. If not, why else? Bella is a very greedy woman.” Amber added with a smirk.

“Greedy, you say. She has venomous greed; a greed that poisons other people's lives and ambitions and she does not think about other people's pain when she unleashes her unbridled desires,” Jayden stated. “She

    CHAPTER 46The hospital was buzzing with activity as Allen Moore was rushed in through the main doors on a stretcher, struggling for her life.Desmond was fuming and full of anger whilst Bella was overwhelmed with agony. The Moore's were generally not doing great.“You brought this upon us Bella,” Desmond groaned. “I still do not understand where we got it wrong with you.”His eyes were furious. “Just pray nothing happens to your mother,” Desmond warned his daughter, “because if anything terrible becomes of her, you will never smell my countenance any more.”Bella sniffed and wept, drenched in her own tears. Her heart was heavy. She could tell that her family was tearing apart.Allen had been wheeled into the emergency section. She could barely breathe and she was struggling for her life.“The doctor needs your attention sir,” one of the nurses said. Desmond saw worry written all over her face.“Is my wife okay?” He asked while running after the nurse whose pace was too fast.Bella we

    CHAPTER 47Jayden's heart melted, seeing Bella in that spot. His heart went out to her.“What is wrong with you, Bella?” Jayden asked, trying to avoid contact with her.She tried to nudge closer to him but he stepped farther. “I am just wondering why you are looking sad.” His voice was gentle.Bella sobbed even more.“My family is falling apart. My mother is terribly sick and we never knew…,” her voice died off in her tears.“Oh… that is pretty bad. I mean, Allen Moore was at a social function a few days ago. When did her illness become this terrible?” He was genuinely confused and concerned as well.“Apparently, she has battled this disease for quite sometime, keeping it to herself,” her voice was breaking.Jayden shook his head. He could not help her and he did not care that much. He was just trying to be human.“I am really sorry for this hurt you feel but I guess you just have to put yourself together. Your family is stronger than that, you cannot fall apart.” He tried to be empat

    CHAPTER 48Bella sat still throughout the rest of the ride. His mean and cold words got her feeling down. She could not believe that he would say that all he felt for her was pity and not love.“The weather is too cold and I feel winter is coming,” Jayden said, trying to get her out of her deep thoughts.“Yeah,” Bella mumbled, her thoughts drifting away to her family.“We have driven for well over one hour. Do you think you feel better now?” His voice was deep and emotionless.Bella sniffed. She was not okay, but she could not dare say that.“I feel a lot better now,” she lied. He was becoming uncomfortable around her again, as he used to be and she was not sure her mind was ready for that.“I am gonna take you back home then. Who is gonna be at home?” He asked not because he cared but because he was curious.“I am sure my father is not home, he would be with mum at the hospital. The maids are not on duty, maybe the drivers and the cooks.”“Then, I should get you home,” he replied sha

I mean, how did this thought cross your mind, Baron?” Cassie was excited.“A man had to do what a man had to do. Hitting me was way out of line. So, I had to keep her on her toes.” His voice was thrilling.“Aha! That's what's up!” Cassie grinned. “I see that you are taking down notes properly from my lessons.”“You cannot be serious,” Baron responded with a smile on his face. “She would have to wriggle herself out of this one before coming to me again with that talk of being pregnant.”Cassie tore apart with laughter. “In addition to that, we would know for real if she is pregnant because the bump should get bumpier.” Cassie's eyes were filled with sarcasm and mockery of Bella.“You totally detest her, Cassie. What did she ever do to you?” His eyes were filled with sarcasm.“She hurt my best friend with a break up that tore him apart and publicly disg

    CHAPTER 50After much thought, Jayden took Bella home to his house. She was shivering and he could not get himself to abandon her there all by herself.“A hotel would have been appropriate sir,” Amber suggested when he was home. She had her eyes fixated on Bella, who sat on the couch in the living area.“I know… but she did not have any money on her and I didn't not even want to risk being seen with her again, especially not close to a hotel.” Jayden was making defences for his actions as he did not want to be misjudged.“I know sir, but I'm just worried about the news the Tabloids would carry out there especially with all that is associated with the Moore's. You do not want to be in society's bad view,” Amber insisted. Jayden took a deep breath.“You do have a very valid point, Amber and I see what you are getting at. However, I would try to keep this as discreet as possible and I suggest that you and everyone else in this house do the same.” His words were stern and that meant that

You showed a great deal into the ripple growth effect that The corporation has encountered in the past two weeks. It was such a tremendous success attained. Hence, I do accept that you deserve to contest him before the board.” Her fearless and resilient spirit was admirable."I am thrilled by your courage and strength,” Jayden complimented her with a smile. “Working with you for another year will cause us to attain some extra heights that would keep us higher and higher.”“Thank you sir,’’ Amber giggled with a smile. “I am more than pleased to serve, sir.”“Well, I may have to think it through for the next couple of days. I am more interested in you coming up with ideas about the next project we are planning on. Are my surveys and analysis ready for the chocolate takeover?” Jayden asked.“Yes.

    CHAPTER 52“You startled me, Bella. I thought you went to bed?”Bella sat beside him on the bench. She was covered in thick sweaters.“I could not sleep. I am restless,” she muttered, leaning into the bench.“Hmm, I can understand this. I guess you are worried about your mother's health? But I urge you not to let that eat deep into your peace. She will be fine, eventually,” he tried to be gentle with her even though deep inside his heart, he still had grievances against her for all that she did to him."Google says that Leukaemia is a terminal disease. It hurts and kills pretty fast. So, I do not know how to feel.”The garden lights were shining dimly but enough for Jayden to see the tears building up in her eyes. She was filled with pain.“I had no idea it was Leukaemia,” he replied with the same gentleness in his voice and pity in his eyes.“It is Leukaemia and according to the doctors, she is at the critical stage of it. They need to do a blood transplant for her immediately. But w

Her face had a haughty expression. She did not like Bella.“You know you could have said “you're welcome to me. Right?” Bella was trying to make trouble with Salome.“I do not mean to be disrespectful but remember that you are a visitor. Right?” Salome’s words were coated with anger and spite.“Why would you speak to me in that manner?” Bella snapped at her. She was angered and felt humiliated. “I was not going to speak to you in that manner but I remembered that you are the same woman who once hurt our boss and who dealt mercilessly with Ma'am Medeia while she lived with you.

The proof collected was strong, and they were prepared to witness justice being served."Desmond and Helena, you're being arrested for the killing of Sir Benjamin Gracehill, Theodore, and Sandra," stated one of the officers in a strong tone.Desmond sneered, a self-satisfied grin dancing in his mouth. "He looked at Jayden and Yohan and spat, saying they had no evidence."Yohan moved closer, displaying the files with incriminating evidence. "We certainly do," he said, anger flashing in his eyes. "We have statements from witnesses, records from phones, and footage from surveillance cameras that confirm both of you were present at the crime scene."For a moment, Helena's calm demeanor faltered, a hint of fear appearing on her face.

    Meanwhile, Jayden had told the hospital to announce the death of Robert to avoid putting his life in danger and also told the doctor to make sure no one came to claim his body. " I am his only family." He warned the doctor. Jayden immediately had Medeia and Benjamin flown out of Sweint City that night to protect them. He had Amber and Brian follow them for protection. " What is going on?" Medeia asked him over the phone. " Helena has gone berserk. I don't know what she would do to you and the child if she caught you. She might even want to use you as a bargaining chip. Jayden called Yohan '' we need to set the ball in motion. I am sure Desmond and Helena will be out for my head.

    Helena looked at him and froze. " Have you been stalking me?" She asked, frightened. " I don't have time to go about explaining everything you have done so please just save yourself the trouble of humiliating yourself. I expect to have the divorce papers by tomorrow. If I don't see it then I would have to send mine." Robert replied, walking out of Helena who seemed lost. She knew there was something off about Robert but she didn't expect him to tail her anywhere she was going. Helena took out her phone and called Desmond. " He has it! The phone and everything we have done." She screamed her lungs out " That isn't my problem. You fix it. You can expect me to keep running towards you every time there is an issue to be solved. Just make sure you have the phone. I don't know how you plan on making it happen but just get it!." Desmond shouted at her.Helena immediately entered her car and chased after Robert. Robert looked at his windscreen and saw Helena was right after him. He took hi

I know there are many evil deeds but we would unravel them one by one. I don't want anything from you. I just want you to pay for your crimes and every single pain you have melted out to the weak. " Robert said and cut off the line before Helena could beg him. He looked down and watched how she banged the steering in frustration. Robert knew he had to switch the phone off to avoid being tracked. Helena immediately took out her phone and called Desmond " I am coming over to the Villa and we also need to talk. It is high time we take care of this matter once and for all." Desmond, who felt relaxed that his plans were beginning to hatch felt agitated once more. He needed to wrap things up in time but it looks like the time was against him. He was the killer of Medeia's mother and had all of her weakening from her immediately when she died. H

He quickly called her " Hello baby, I will be with you in a few minutes. Where do you want to meet up? " He askedHelena was thrilled that they were going to be finally together. " I will send you the location of the Gracehill villa. You can stay there while I try to clear things up with my husband. This calls for celebration." Helena said as she hung up the line. Little did she know that Desmond was also planning to have her killed and have all the money and will for himself. Allen watched as Desmond drove out of the compound with the promise he was going to make life better for them. He drove towards the Villa and his mind went on how he was going to make Helena hand over the will to him and put everything she ever owned under his name.

Do you think I killed Fiona just to allow you to be with another woman? What am I even talking about. You killed her to take over her properties. Do you think you would have been able to if I haven't been by your side? Now that things are going so well for us you then decide to get married to that whore. I won't sit back and watch you leave me alone. " Allen shouted at him.Desmond looked at her and rubbed his hands over his hair. He was having a lot to deal with within a limited space of time.

" He shouted at Desmond, who was now shivering. " it looks like you have a lot of secrets in your family. I guess you don't mind us finding out by ourselves." Jayden grabbed Medeia's hand and they both walked out on them. Bella looked at her parent again. " Can someone tell me what is going on right now I don't understand. Medeia just asked you both a simple question. Are you really her parents?" Desmond looked at Allen and both of them knew it was only a matter of time before she finds out. They had tried to bury the secret and bribe as many people who knew about it. " Ask your mother. " Desmond said getting up from his seat. He picked up his phone and called someone who he thinks can help with covering the matter from escalating.Bella walked closer to her mother changing her seat. " Are you Medeia's biological

" I am coming right now to the mansion. I need to see you and Mother. " She looked at Jayden's face. " Are you sure all is fine? you can just talk to me over here and we can settle it. " Desmond replied." I just said I can't say it over the phone. I need to see you and Mother before I can ask you anything ." She replied." Alright. I will be seeing you soon then. " Desmond replied cutting the line. Jayden changed course and headed towards the Moore's villa. he drove into the compound and walked out to open the door for Medeia. " You need to play it cool or we won't get to the bottom of this," Jayden warned her trying to make her calm. As they strode into the house, they met Bella who also drove into the compound. " Well, Well, who do we have here? Did you get lost or something? " She said with a smirk." You are stupid if yo
