CHAPTER 85As the night came with the anticipation of a new day, the tension within the gala seemed to subside and flow like an unexpected wave. Baron, determined to unravel the truth about Bella's pregnancy, sought Mark's assistance in discreetly obtaining the test results. Mark, with a determined expression, nodded in agreement.Cassie entered the ceremony and picked up her bag. She looked at Mark and Baron. " I need to go. I am not feeling too good with everything going on at the moment." Baron looked at Cassie but didn't know the right word to say. " Can you please take her home for me? Make sure she is safe, Mark." Mark looked at Baron and nodded. Jayden and Medeia walked towards the crowd as the gaze and attention shifted from Bella to Jayden and Medeia. " It is good you could honor me with your presence. I was beginning to think you might never show up." Bella said, looking at Medeia who hid behind Jayden a little.Jayden could sense Medeia's fear and immediately spoke up o
CHAPTER 86As Jayden and Medeia left the party, they decided to go home and take a nap. It was a long day. They got home looking tired. " I am going to get some sleep. We will talk tomorrow and also visit the hospital." Jayden said, walking towards his room." All right honey. What time is the appointment?"" We should be at the hospital by 8 am. So we need to wake up as early as possible. Doctor Albert is a busy man." Jayden replied.They both bade themselves goodbye and went into their room. Jayden couldn't sleep as his mind kept racing. He silently prayed for the chance of Medeia speaking again should be possible. He was lost in thought when he heard a soft knock at the door. He was caught unaware as he shook by the sharp knock." Who is that?" Jayden asked, getting up from his bed." It is I, Amber." " Oh, give me one sec." Jayden got up from his bed and walked towards the door. " Hey, how are you doing and how was work today?" Amber looked at the man standing before him with hi
CHAPTER 87"Mr and Mrs Gracehill please follow me," a nurse in blue scrubs beckoned, leading them towards the examination rooms. Baron exchanged a curious glance with Bella as they sat down." Aah! Mr Jayden, it is an honor to have you here. How have you been?" Doctor Albert said with a smile.He looked at Medeia and greeted her too. " I have called some of my specialists and I think we would have to fly Mrs medeia out of the country to have her surgery." " Can't you have the specialist brought down to this country? I would love to follow all the process and be there myself."Doctor Albert looked at Jayden with a serious look, " I am sorry but most of the equipment needed is not available in this country. You can tag along if you ain't too busy."Medeia looks at the doctor, "How soon is the surgery?"" You should be flown down to Isreal by Friday. You have two days to prepare yourself, ma'am" " Thanks a lot, Doc. I am very happy about this news. I will see to it that the necessary a
CHAPTER 88Bella didn't say a word, " Thank you for having my back today. It means a lot to me. But I will handle my business. You don't need to get involved any more than this." Bella walked out of Albert's room and was met with Baron's cold gaze. "What kept you so long? I am a busy man. When do you want to start your antenatal?" " I'm not sure. I need to fix a lot of things before I start that." Bella replied, looking out of the car as the breeze collided with her face." This isn't about you anymore. This is our child and we both need to take responsibility. I am trying to take on mine and I want you to play your part. Here, put in your account details and I will send you some money to take care of yourself." Baron replied, giving his phone to Bella." I can handle myself. Have got enough cash too. Besides, I see no reason why we can't continue from where we left off. Since I am having your child. Why not become a couple once again? I know I messed things up and am sorry for that
CHAPTER 89Jayden left his business in the care of Amber. " I trust you can take care of things while I am gone. Call me when necessary." " Don't worry, boss, I will keep that in mind. Have a safe trip." Jayden drove with Medeia who was a little bit scared. " Don't worry too much love, I will be with you through this., " he said with a smile on his face. Medeia faked a smile as the car drove them off to the airport. ****************************************Sir Benjamin was beginning to see the need to have Jayden around the company. As he entered the Grace Hill cooperation, he was greeted by the board members. Benjamin looked around and couldn't see his friend. "Where the hell is Sir Thompson?"Helena fidgetted before she could speak, " I am sorry uncle but Sir Thompson decided to side with Jayden. He withdrew his shares and bought at Jayden's company." Sir Benjamin looked at Hellena and for the very first time, he felt like squeezing her like a can. "You fools. You lost a valuabl
CHAPTER 90Baron entered the house fuming with anger. His father looked at him and knew it was no other than Bella's issue. " Are you alright son?" " You won't believe it Dad, she is asking that I marry her. A woman who openly disgraced me. She is using the child to get back at me."" You need to calm down son. She is playing a game she can't win. Have you confirmed that she is pregnant?"Baron nodded and looked at Andrew, " I don't know what to do. I want to be there for my child but I don't want Bella back. She has blown her chances with me. A woman like Bella will always look out for herself, I can't afford to have her as my wife"Andrew looked at Baron and saw how frustrated he was. "There might be a way out of all this mess." " Tell me, Dad. I am all ears." Baron replied, taking a seat." What do you think about giving Desmond what he had always wanted? Desmond would do anything to gain our favor right now. We can just tell him we are willing to let him trade with us as long as
CHAPTER 91Jayden waited anxiously as he kept looking towards the theatre room. Time seems to slow down as he thinks about the odds of Medeia being able to speak again. He looked at his luxurious wristwatch and tried to think of when his wife was carried off into the theatre but the more he thinks about it, the more agitated he becomes. The door suddenly flings open and Medeia is wheeled out of the room. Jayden followed immediately like a puppy after its mother. Doctor Albert walked out of the operating room with some of the other doctors. He looked at them as they whispered among themselves. " Doctor, how is my wife?" Jayden asked looking at Albert." Can you please follow me, Mr. Jayden?" " No, please can you tell me whatever it is? I am a man enough to accept whatever it is you have to say to me."" Mr. Jayden, I am glad to announce to you that your wife managed to scale through. She is a very strong woman. I believe she has got a lot of things to talk to you about." Doctor Alber
CHAPTER 92Baron took out his phone and called Cassie. It had been a long he heard from her since he had chosen Bella's pregnancy over her. Their fling meant a lot to Cassie but Baron had wanted to stay as friends. " Hey Cassie, how are you holding up? It has been a while I heard from you and I just wanted to say hi. Can you call me back when you get my voicemail?"He cut the lines, as he took a peep through his window. Baron knew it was time he moved past his old life. Bella was his past and that shouldn't hinder him from moving forward. He stood up pacing his room and suddenly his phone rang, without checking who the caller was, he picked it up. " Cassie, are you alright? I know we had a thing going on but I would have appreciated it if you had called me."" Are you listening to me, Cassie?"No reply came and Baron was forced to look at his screen, "holy shit! Mark, you son of a bitch." Mark bursted into laughter, " Whew! You had a thing going on and you didn't tell me bout it? I t
CHAPTER 186Jayden's joy knew no bounds as he was welcomed into the Gracehill corporation. Many of them wish him a good and successful life ahead while some say he lied to get his Aunt Helena locked.Upon entering the Gracehill corporation, Jayden was met with friendly smiles and messages of congratulations from the staff. A lot of them showed their admiration for his bravery and resolve in holding Desmond and Helena accountable.Mr. Thompson, who was the acting CEO of the corporation, expressed his pride in having Jayden as a part of the Gracehill family while extending his hand in welcome.Jayden firmly shook Mr. Thompson's hand, feeling a swell of pride in his chest. "Thank you," he responded, his voice reflecting gratitude. "I feel privileged to be present in this place."During the day, Jayden met different departments and teams within the company, all of whom were excited to collaborate with him. He was amazed by the commitment and expertise of the staff and felt a hopeful antic
CHAPTER 185As Desmond and Helena were led into the police station, the atmosphere was tense and charged with energy. Jayden and Yohan stood, their expressions showing strong determination. 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. However, she swiftly composed herself, narrowing her eyes in defiance
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. Have the files with you turned in to the police and have them start an investigation immediately. " Where are you? " Yohan asked " Right now, I need to be with Robert. He has got only me." Jayden replied. As Jayden rushed to Robert's ward his mind buzzed with a flurry of thoughts. The sudden turn of events
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
CHAPTER 182" Since you are listening to me, you should know what I want. I have your sex tape with me and I will have it released to the world. 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
CHAPTER 181With Allen and Bella walking out of the picture it was easy for Desmond to make up his mind about marrying Helena. 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. It could have been easier if his friend, George was not dead.He would have been a great asset. He would just wipe off h
CHAPTER 180" You are really going to leave me after everything we have been through. I can't believe you would just throw away what we have built over the years. 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 had a lot of blood on his hands. He alone had killed Theodore, Sir Benjamin and even killed his first white all because of money. It looks like everything was catching up to him at once and his secret was about to be in the open.Desmond stood there, his mind racing as he tried to process everything that was happening. His careful
CHAPTER 179 The room was tense as everyone kept quiet. Jayden looked at them " Can you both ddo do do do o something? She asked you a question and it demands an answer. " 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
CHAPTER 178" What is the matter Medeia? " Desmond asked over the call. He was having a lot on his plate at the moment and wasn't ready to add another to it. " 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
