***Rosa's pov***"Where? How? How did you find them? Tell me!" I demanded."Calm down. I only got to know the location. Besides we can't go get them. It would be too dangerous." 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 stood up and turned around,taking a view of my room.Can't wait to see the look on my father's face when I snatch all of his properties from him.The only problem I have now is to hire some men to help me get those children. What do I even need them for? All I need is a video of them,just to con
***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
***Rosa's pov***Getting to the hospital,mom was rushed into the ward and was attended to immediately. Dad was pacing to and fro scared of what the doctor would come and say. "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. Even though I and my mom quarrel a lot,I wouldn't want her
I was sitting on the dinning table when my mother in law carried a cooler to the table and hit my head with it.I looked at her expecting a sorry but she just walked past like nothing happened. I should have gotten used to this but there was this hope,hope I was clinging on thinking she'll like me someday but that day would never come if things kept going this way. She served herself and didn't serve mine. I dropped my phone and stretched to serve myself. She hit the back of my hand with her spoon and I winced in pain. "Ouch!" I rubbed the back of my palm."How dare you touch my plate? How dare you,you lowlife?" She yelled."I just want some caserole." I answered."Did you contribute to buying foodstuffs in this house? Have you ever gotten me anything before?" She yelled again and I was quiet. A year ago,I met Rosaline Parks. She was a beautiful damsel every man would love to have. She had the perfect hazel eyes with long blonde hair which she curled most of the time and straightene
"Hello Mom. How are you.""Roberto! Mom is dying." I heard my little brother's voice, Diego "What? What's wrong with Mom?" I stood up from the bed immediately. "Mom's intestines is ruptured and the doctor said we need two million dollars for her to be operated on or she'll die." He announced as he weeped over the phone. Tears began to drop off my eyes. "Where am I going to get two million dollar from? I've never made or touched such an amount my whole life." I said to myself. "Who can I ask? Mother in law? Father in law? Wife?" I pondered. Rosa came out of the bathroom wrapped in her white towel. I watched as water dripped from her hair down to her body."What's wrong? Your mood has changed."She said. "Nothing is wrong with me babe." I concealed my sadness with a smile.She dried her body and changed into her pyjamas. She hopped on the bed and placed her laptop on her laps as usual and I watched her battled with the loads on files beside her. I didn't have the mind to ask he
Five hours later,my mom was brought out of the operation theatre. I held the doctors arm aggressively. I've been trying to get some information for the last five hours from the nurses but they ignored me. This time I must get something,that's why I held her arm."How is my mom? How is she?" I asked."She's out of danger now." She announced."Thank God. Can I see her now?" I asked."Yes,but she's sleeping. Make sure you don't wake her up." She said.We went into the ward and the man followed us. At first I was confused. "Did he do it for charity? Or does Mom know him?"We went in and my mom was fast asleep."Thank you so much sir. Thank you." I said to him again and this time he stretched his hand and I shock them.We all sat down except my brother,staring at my mother as she slept. The man still waited. Something was wrong,I felt attached and it was strange. I thought he should be on his way by now but it seems he had other motives. Maybe he wanted to talk to my mom.After a while,my
I drove in and met my mother in law about to enter her car. She came down and came to me. " What are you doing in my daughter's car? She asked."I'm coming from my mother's house. She just got discharged." I answered."I didn't ask for all that. I said what are you doing with my daughter's car?" She asked again. I was now confused."Well. I was driving it." I answered and she slapped me."Is that a way to answer someone who is more older than you?" She yelled. "Give me the car keys. Give me now." She ordered.I handed the keys back to her and she screamed. "Lowlife." I wanted to tell her I was no longer a low life,I wanted to tell her I was a Lionel's descendant. The Lionel's name which everyone bowed to. The name everyone feared and respected. Even my mother inlaw had mentioned the name several times to my hearing. She once said she was pursing a contract in one of the Lionel's company and it was rejected. This was the sixth time. She doesn't want to give up because when she gets
I went in and saw my father in law watching me as I walked inside from the balcony."Where are you coming from and who dropped you?" He asked.I walked inside and I met him walking downstairs to the sitting room."That's my boss sir. I'm just coming from work." I answered and bowed. I dared not look into his eyes when talking to him."You are cheating on my daughter." He concluded."What? My boss dropped me off sir." I explained."So because we didn't give you the two million dollars you decided to go get married into another family." He yelled."What are you saying sir? I didn't do such a thing." I said."Out of my house. Now." He said."Sir please try to understand. it wasn't a woman who brought me home it was my boss." I tried to explain but he pushed me out. He took me to the backyard and I was locked up in the dog cage."Sir. Please listen." I begged holding the cold steel bar as I knelt inside the cage.He hissed and left. "That's what low life's like you deserve. "Listen pleas
