Brenda had arrived at the hospital, gone in for check up after a long while.The doctor had advised that she stays away from anything strenuous for the time being.Both mental tasking and physical taking issues, she needed to exempt herself .The doctor even added to it that she needed to eat well to strengthen her neurons more.She had thought of Fera immediately, she was close to resuming work, and here the doctor advised her to stay away from stress.She wasn't ready to lose Fera, that job was the only thing that could help maintain her sanity, and her child! She wasn't ready to lose the baby either.Even before the baby was born she was in love with the baby. Every single time her gaze fell to her stomach, she looked forward to her delivery date which was obviously still months away.All this unfolded in her heart, and she had left the doctor's office with a depressed expression, but on getting out a young man dressed in a yellow plain t shirt approached her."I was asked to give
The next day, while Brenda dressed, she realized Derek had not bought himself an outfit yesterday before they left the supermarket ."What do you plan on wearing?" She confronted him the moment he came around ."Worry less about me. I'm fine, I've got an outfit here that I could manage.""You deserve to dress to the nines, not me." she planted a kiss on his cheek before she knew it.Even after he assured her of having an outfit, she was quite confused as to what he planned to wear. In the recent times there had only been a few touches to her wardrobe, but his! Nothing has been done to it in recent times."Here it is." Derek brought out from the wardrobe neatly zipped up in extra clothing."You remember this suit!" Derek said as he carefully brought it out."Of course not. How would I remember something you hid secretly?""Well, it's a gift from you. Some year's back."Brenda remembered the moment he flashed the clothes across her face.She had actually gifted him the day he turned tw
"Hey Derek, you know you aren't eligible to address us. Nevertheless, speak up on your ridiculous demand. What a big joke!" somebody from the crowd shouted.'This was the time to get back at the Smiths if he wanted to.' Derek thought to himself.'No matter how big or great a corporation is, if several companies withdrew their corporation from them, they would definitely go down one after another.' A second thought flowed into his mind, this was exactly what he intended to achieve.Then he voiced. "Everyone, this is the main deal, if everyone should agree to withdraw their corporation from the Smiths then I would release us all."Every single person stared wide-eyed at Derek because of this ridiculous demand. "The Smiths have the intention to wipe all of us out, but now even the Reids aren't any better off. How could you make such a ridiculous demand?" somebody from the crowd yelled."Even if we were to withdraw our corporation, have you ever thought of how big they are? Who wouldn'
The sound of the gun piercing the atmosphere was loud enough to make the burly men turn heads..Never had they expected that there would be an enemy behind. One thing was prominent, the young master must not die.In the corner, Brenda cried herself out, at the sight of the blood that oozed out from her husband's arm.The burly men had returned to find Derek in pain but they dared not reveal anything, they behaved as though they were neutral.Even Brenda was too terrfied to process whom the burly men were. At the moment, all she found herself doing was weeping that her husband stays alive and being grateful that some people had remembered them and were being kind enough to come to their rescue.'Perhaps it could be one of those Derek had initially released.'Kaden, who had also witnessed the scene from his place of hiding, rejoiced inwardly. ‘Good. Kill him! Derek, you piece of trash. I want you dead.’His heart was filled with murderous intent toward Derek. He wanted this man dead, wit
Cassandra was good enough to say such without considering the fact that the two families had been friends for quite some time. Not that alone, she refused to consider the fact that the two girls were bosom friends.Now that Brenda was here, she had put up an unwelcoming front!“We’re here to bring Clarine with us.” Derek spoke up before his wife even had the chance to do so.“Who are you to say anything here?” Of course, Derek was a nobody to Cassandra. To put it bluntly, a piece of trash like this good for nothing son-in-law was simply dirt on their floor.‘If not for the fact that the two families are still acquaintances, I probably would’ve broken in to save Clarine by now.’“Alright now. Clarine is our daughter; she has nothing to do with you two. You guys can leave!” Cassandra gave her order and requested for Derek to leave without batting an eye.No matter how bad she ranted, the duo had no intentions of leaving.“We’re not going to leave until we see Clarine today.” Derek igno
Cassandra was totally numb seeing her husband accommodate Derek like a close relative.Derek, who had initially been unwelcome just minutes earlier and had even needed to fight his way upstairs, now had a close relation with Kenneth because he managed to save the life of his dearest daughter.Derek didn't refuse the offer either, he closely tailed behind Kenneth as they headed to the study with his hands folded behind his back.The moment they sat down in the study, Kenneth Landon got right to the point. “Derek, seems to be quite intelligent, what college did you attend?"“You wouldn’t believe me even if I told you the truth. So I think it's better that I keep to myself.""Wow! I love intelligent people like yourself.""I have a big secret I would love to share with you."Just then, someone pushed the room to the study open.Kenneth was taken aback, but he relaxed when his wife entered the room.She had made tea as ordered and was now bringing it over for her husband. She had never t
Not considering how much drama was pulled, Derek had no interest in the fight between Kenneth and Cassandra. Where he sat he began to have various thoughts.Initially it was just the Reids he was against, then the Smiths came in.It seemed like there were several butts that really needed to be kicked and several heads out back in place.However, Derek seemed to have the messy situation was all under his control. All he needed do was take them down one after the other, and as at last night, he already started with the Smiths.After a long while of no consensual decision between the couples, Derek strolled out and headed home.***The following day…Derek and Brenda managed to find somewhere for Clarine to stay.As the three of them arrived at her new residence, Brenda and Clarine received a message at the very same time on each of their device.Even before checking, they had their gaze locked together.Then after checking, each of them had their brief tightly knitted together.“Wha
Emico chemicals! Derek wondered within him, it sounded so familiar.He traveled back in thoughts as the name kept ringing a bell, then he remembered the day Gage gave him a list of the companies under the Emerald group, he had seen Emico.Derek smiled inside of him. 'That means the nitwit works for me, yet he acts this stupid.''If he's telling the truth, I can fire him and give the job to somebody else who needs it desperately.'Derek noted that down within himself, he was going to mask Gage about who the manager of Emico was.Upon hearing that Greg was going to buy a house at Waterfalls, everyone became even more excited.Everyone from the Dominican knew what that meant.Waterfalls was the core of Dominican’s business circle. Even among the prominent families in Dominican, there were top-tier families and second-tier families.Brenda’s family was a second-tier family.One of the reasons the Reids we're yet to be regarded as a first tier family was simply because they didn’t have a v
