***Gabriel's pov***

"What just happened?" She asked. I couldn't say anything.

"Could Mr Roberto have signed it before he met Laura? Does he love Mona? Has he accepted the child already or was he lying to us all these while." She asked but I was dumbfounded.

"Let's calm down." I took in a deep breath trying to process what has happened.

"There's no way in hell Mr Roberto sighed that. Something is wrong." I said and she shaked her head.

"You don't know Gabe. Maybe he has been lying to us all these while. Mona is carrying his baby for crying out loud. He must have fallen in love with her." She bit her lower lip.

"How sure are you? Don't jump into conclusion yet. Mr Roberto can't do anything without informing you. Don't let your emotions get the best of you." I said and she shaked her head.

"What are we going to do? His father must not know about this? He is going to be devastated." She said.

"Honestly,I don't know what to do. We can only pray for Mr Roberto's recovery before we do anyth

    ***Diana's pov***He rushed over immediately he got my message. I was outside the ward already by the lobby"He moved? Seriously? Is he awake now? Can I meet him?" He attacked me with questions immediately."He did. I touched him and he moved but he slipped back into coma." I said with so much love. My eyes were beaming with joy and happiness."What can we do now? What's our next step?" He asked."We have to stay with him. Talk to him everytime. The doctor said we have to say things that can trigger his emotions. He can hear us." I said and he smiled."That's good improvement. Great. We have to start immediately so all these mess can be fixed." He commented.***Audrey's pov***I came back from my trip and met my husband sitting in the living room staring at the empty space.

    ***Audrey's pov***Afternoon came like a flash. The golden sun was now very hot and now scorching. I wore a grey skirt and blouse. It was simple and the fabric was soft."I'm going to the hospital." He announced and I dropped the television remote and followed him like a robot. For me to achieve my plans,I have to follow him to the hospital.We both got into the car and his driver drove us to the hospital. After an hour of battling with traffic and having to listen to blaring horns, we got to the hospital. I followed behind him into the ward and the joy I got seeing Roberto lying unconscious made me happy. It didn't even look like he was breathing at all. So many apparatus were connected to his body."Let's see how he runs the company now." My subconscious added."Oh my God. I never knew his condition was this critical. God please shower us with your mercies." I shed crocodile tears. Diana and Gabriel were also present,sitting beside him."Welcome sir. Welcome ma." They both stood up

    ***Laura's pov***They continued beating me until a warder came to seperate us. I was happy thinking they'll separate me from them but the warder just warned them and left me there. I was bleeding almost everywhere. My orange jumpsuit was stained with blood already."What did you do?" The one with lots of tattoos asked."What do you mean?" I fidgeted while asking."I said what did you do?" She stood up and hit me on my face. I whimpered. I've never been to this kind of place before and I've never been hit this way before. "I was accused of poisoning someone. I didn't do it." I answered."She's a weakling." She laughed."I stabbed my husband ten times and watched him bleed to death. I can still do it again." She stared at me and winked.I took five steps away from her. My back was touching the iron rod."Our little mouse wants to run away. You're stuck with us baby." She held me by the collar and draged me back.She made me kneel for hours and I felt tired. I was getting dehydrated an

    ***Laura's pov***Life in prison wasn't great at all. I always get beaten everyday by Suzy,the woman with lots of tattoos. She seems to be the leader over here. It's like she derived happiness seeing me in blood or seeing me swollen up and the worse of it all is I always sleep on the floor. The cold hard floor.Since I was born,I've never slept on the floor before. I was swollen,cold and had lots of injury."Someone is here to visit you." The warder came and opened the door. He handcuffed my hands and my legs altogether which made walking a little bit difficult."A murderer also gets visitor. Go my little mouse and come back to me." She winked and I ran off. I followed the warder and he took me to the visiting room where I saw my stepmother,lawyer and dad waiting."What are they doing together?" That was the first question that came to my mind.I sat down opposite to them and my dad held my hand."Are you okay? Look at you. You are bleeding and you look unkempt. What have they done t

    ***Lionel's pov***"What just happened? Is she messing with me?" I glared."Please can you leave the ward. We want to pack him up." The nurse said and we left angrily."See what your son has done to us. He transferred all our properties to a stranger. What type of a useless son operates like this?" Audrey yelled and I rolled my eyes at her. "Don't you dare talk about my son that way." I warned."You mean your late son." She snickered."Mr Roberto can't do such a thing. He would inform us before he does. Something is fishy here." Diana said and I rested my hands on my waist."I need to call my lawyer. I can't even mourn properly. Roberto!" I sighed."Everything would be fine sir. When are we going to tell his mum?" Diana asked and I almost choked on my saliva "There's no way in hell I'm telling her. She's going to kill me." I said."But we have to tell her. It won't be nice if she finds out from other means. The press would soon get the news." Gabriel said and i nodded."Should we go

    ***Diana's pov***I went back to meet the lawyer downstairs "Is he okay?" He asked and I bopped my head."I think so. He's just so hurt. He lost two people today." I sniffed. My heart was aching but I had to be strong for Mr Roberto. I need to help him get his properties back and I'll complete his revenge for him. I'm sure they would be his final wish."Lost two people?" He glared at me."His son and the mother of his son." I announced."Ma'am Audrey is also gone. This is terrible." He said."Ma'am Audrey isn't his birth mother." I said and he apologized."I'm sorry. I though she is now his mother officially that's why I said that." He replied."So what can I do to help Mr Lionel? I feel bad for him. Can you brief me on what happened?" He asked and i sat opposite to him."His girlfriend or someone he had a one stand stand with just came from nowhere and announced she was carrying his baby. Mr Roberto said he wasn't the father of the child. There's nothing he didn't swear with. The mo

    ***Diana's pov***We went to Mr Roberto's house two days after and Mona was sitting comfortably with some major shareholders in the living room. There were files on the table and well dressed men of high calibre. Bottles of exquisite wines were arranged neatly on the table with glass cups."Look who we have here.", She smiled when I and Mr Lionel's lawyer walked into the room."I invited you to my chambers and you declined.", The lawyer said and I sat down waiting for the drama to unfold. I was waiting for the lawyer to lash out on her before I say anything else."I saw the letter. I've been busy so I declined. It's not easy carrying this empire on my shoulder and this baby." She rubbed her belly."I don't care. All I'm asking is for you to provide the documents you said Roberto signed for proper investigation." He said and she chuckled."Investigation? I told you he signed it. What other proof do you need?" She yelled."You need to cooperate with us ma'am or we take this matter to c

He replied."Your phone is with your dad sir. He's really devastated about your death. We should inform him you tricked us. Even your.." Diana stepped on my toe. I grabbed my toe and winced in pain."What was that for?"I and Mr Roberto echoed. She eyed me and I remembered his mom is dead and this won't be a good time to announce that to him."Nothing. It was a mistake." Diana said and I nodded."Whatever. You guys can't announce to my dad that I'm alive yet and I need my phone to check the surgeon's message." He said."We've tried several times to unlock it when you were in coma but we didn't succeed. It was tiring." I explained."You guys don't know my password. It's my name,in capital letters." He grunted."What? We thought it would be something complex and hard,like birthday,date of birth,the day you became CEO or somethi

"Nothing much happen to her." I said."I know and I regret pushing her. It was a mistake." He bit his upper lip.Few minutes later,the doctor came to meet us."Are you her husband sir?" He asked and my dad nodded."Let's talk privately."I held my dad's hand."You talk here. I'm her daughter and he was the one who caused this in the first place." I glared at him."Shut it Rosa! It was a mistake." He corrected. "Well,she has stroke now. A side of her brain was affected so the left side of her body is paralyzed." He announced."What? Look at what you did to her?" I yelled. I wanted to hit him but we were in public."Will she be fine?" I asked."Maybe. It's a 50_50%. She could get better or worse." He said and I shaked my head."I hope she'll be alright.

    ***Roberto's pov***"What's my business with Roberto? What sort of madness is this?" Her screamed echoed in the room."You threatened you'd do something to Gabriel. Well we can't find him." I yelled back throwing my hands in the air dramatically."I was just joking. It was just a threat. Why would I kidnap Gabriel? What use would it be for me?" She dropped her spoon."Son! That accusation is just too much. Have you reported to the police?" I eyed him and he cleared his throat."I know you'll always support her. You've been blinded by her. I'll leave and I'm going straight to the station. If I find out she has a hand in this,I'll make sure she rots in jail." I said and was about to leave when my father held my arm."And if she's not guilty what would you do? I've told you to stop accusing her for whatever thing that happens to you. You're the one who's blinded by your ego and your sadistic thoughts. Why would Gabriel get missing and the first person you think of is your step mom?"I ya

She said and I hissed."Just give me the address and I'll do the rest myself." "Just be careful. Mr Roberto's security is always tight and if he finds out you're the one,you're a goner." She said and i laughed."If I'm a goner then you'll be what? Just send me the address and spare me the cock and bull story." I said and dropped the call.Minutes later,I got a message from Diana. The address of where Laura kids are is with me. I can finally get what I want from Laura.I can't wait to control all of these properties.

I received t a call an unknown number asking me to come meet at the hospital where Alice's father has been hospitalized. I got there and it was Christian,Alice's younger brother. He raised his hand,signalling me to come in."Why would he call me here considering the fact that he hates me so much." I asked myself. We've even beaten each other once.He placed his hand on my shoulder."Hey bro." He said and started walking out of the hospital. "What's going on? Where are we headed?" I asked but he smiled.I should tell you but Alice would kill me if I utter a single word."I've told Alice I'm no longer interested in this relationship. Why would she try to surprise me?" I yelled."Just calm down. I know my family has hurt you in so many ways. Just take this as a sorry." He smiled and opened the car for me. The bodyguards standing outside cladded in all black suits were just so intimidating. I'm a bo

I wonder how those kids would feel like now. I clenched my fist as I walked towards them."Diana! Where have you been? Couldn't go on lunch break because of you. We were supposed to work on this together." Olivia banged the file on the table. i could see the happiness in her eyes."Quit lying. You never asked me to work on any file with you. If you want Mr Roberto to like you,you're doing a great job." I folded my arms."What's wrong with you? Don't you know you're in the office? I told you I don't want any personal shit here?" He yelled at me.I wanted to defend myself but he spoke over me."I'm not interested in you. I don't like you. I'm only keeping you here because you've been of great help. This is the last straw Diana,the next one will be the end." He said and walked out of the office.I felt hurt. I felt a ver

She replied and i nodded as if she could see me.I dropped the call and raised my clenched fist up in the air. "Yes. Finally something to take Roberto down. I want him to beg at my feet. I want him to beg for mercy." I smiled as the thought of me ruining Roberto made me smile.I couldn't wait to hear what she has to say. I left all the things I was doing and rushed to the restaurant. I sat down and the waitress handed the menu over to me.I glanced at the menu as they had lots of good food and drinks but my mind kept pondering,thinking of the good news Diana has to give me. The restaurant looked every nice. Nice artworks hanging on the wall,comfy chairs which were arranged in rows,good lightening and great customer care.I kept tapping my left foot against the floor,anxious and nervous at the same time,checking the entrance to see if Diana was approaching

It's dangerous and it can affect stocks and shares at the company. The corporation is at the verge of dying." She begged."What's your business? I need to go for shopping. It's very important." I yelled as i walked out on her. I got into the car and drove off to the mall. I got down and I saw the glances and murmuring. I waved it off thinking it wasn't that much. I locked the car and took a few steps and people started taking my pictures and laughing at me.Soon it became like a protest,they started calling me names like slut,pig etc and I was embarrassed.I ran back to my car with so much difficulty as some people decided to be violent and started hitting me.I got to my car and drove back home.

    ***Rosa's pov***Watching mom try to make dad fall in with with her again was so annoying to watching. It made me cringe whenever she tried to seduce him. When I say seduce,I mean her using old stupid tricks like throwing the remote on the floor and bending to pick it while wearing a short seductive dress,I mean that's so disgusting considering they are your parent."Just get the fuck away from me. I'm trying to watch tv." My dad yelled as he left the living room."Wait up Daniel. I know you want this. Don't be shy." Mom said and she ran towards him.This is so embarrassing. I know she doesn't love him. She just wants him to change his mind against the divorce.All I want is for mom to steal shares or the company. That's all I want. I need to see Laura. She knows all of dad's password. If I can blackmail her with something or threaten her,she can tell me."What can I blackmail her with? She's in jail. Shes got nothing else to lose anymore."
