CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN “And what property would you have me give you as collateral” Tamara asked Owen “I don't know, what property of yours do you think would be worth the amount you are asking for…” Owen paused in his tracks “How much are we even talking about here?” “Well, I'll say it's a little token in comparison to this empire you own. Let me say about thirty million dollars” Tamara said and Owen scoffed “Thirty million dollars is not a small token Mrs Sinclair, and the empire you speak of does not belong to me, I am just the CEO, nothing more. As for the amount you are asking for, I'll see what I can do about it, but you'll have to give me something that is worth that exact amount” “You were once the owner of the entity, what property of ours would you have me give you?” Tamara asked him “How about the penthouse in Bahamas?” Owen said and if it wasn't for the fact that Tamara was well behaved, she would have cursed at him. “The penthouse in Bahamas? Do you know t

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT “What do you mean by that mother? I don't believe I heard you correctly. Did you say "You want to give Owen the legal ownership of our house?” Daniel roared at the face of his mother but she didn't even flinch or move from the spot where she stood. She had seen many episodes of him like this before and she couldn't seem to care less. “It's just for a short period of time Dan, as soon as the company is up and running on its feet, I will return the money to him and collect the ownership back to us, how many times do I have to repeat this same line to you? Would it take me to open up your brain and shove this information into those cerebral hemispheres of yours before you understand? It is just a temporary solution my son”. Yes, It is a shaky damaged bridge that we have to cross, but we have no other options. Tamara said, her voice barely above a whisper. “Do you even hear yourself mother? A temporary solution?” He scoffed in anger. “What if the company doesn

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE Kate had just gotten home after the auspicious meeting with Esme, newsflash, she had agreed to get married to Jake. But there had been an agreement between her and Esme. They had agreed that if any one of them found the marriage even the slightest bit unbearable, they would divorce right away. She had agreed immediately Esme had made her the deal. She knew for a fact she stood to gain more in this loveless marriage so she agreed without further ado. Although Jake was a difficult person from what Kate had observed, Kate knew the benefits she would be getting once she got married into the family and she believed that he wasn't someone she couldn't handle. She was on her way to her room when she got a notification on her phone. She continued to walk, her eyes fixated on her phone that she didn't notice the incoming person and she was shocked when she bumped into something or someone. She bumped into the person with brute force and both of their phones fell

CHAPTER FOURTY Owen had just finished calling Veeda and she had told him that they would get back to him in no time. He had wanted to ask for Rina's presence only, but Rina was too doubtful and violent at the same time, so she wouldn't agree to a meeting alone with him in the first place as she would think that he had some fishy reasons for requesting for an appointment with her. He couldn't handle her alone so that was why he had called Veeda in the first place. The ever cheerful Veeda had replied him with all enthusiasm and he couldn't wait to get Rina's reply. He looked at his wrist watch, it was already past six and he couldn't wait to get home. Gosh, he was exhausted, from thinking about marriage to dealing with Tamara and signing some unreasonable documents that had him missing his former peasant life. He picked up his bag, switched off the lights and headed towards the door. He had already come out of the office when his head guard rushed to him, two other guards follow

CHAPTER FOURTY- ONEVeeda and Rina returned back to the Steele's living room to head back home with their mother. They all exchanged farewells with Maria and exited the Steele's mansion.As the ladies exited the Steele's mansion, They entered their sleek wrangler jeep and began the journey home. Rina was lost in thought and she could not shake off the uneasy feeling she felt of Owen's request to meet up with her. Her encounter with Owen just the day before, still lingered in her mind, with his stinging remark of calling she and her sister "maids" leaving a sour taste in her mouth. She was very much . How would he She couldn't think of why he would want to meet her. Was it some elaborate plan up his sleeves to try to ridicule her further, she certainly did not have time for such or did he have genuine reasons? Veeda, on the other hand, was humming a happy song and was pretty excited about meeting Owen again.To her, he was a really funny handsome guy and she had developed a fondnes

CHAPTER FORTY TWO Veeda's voice was not one he could forget easily. He turned to the direction where he heard the voice from and what he saw next surprised him. Veeda looked stunning in her mid thigh evening dress which enhanced her curves, and her hair was packed in a ponytail. She had little make up on and she looked extremely different from the lady he had met a few days ago. He stared at her for a while and this made Veeda uncomfortable. Noticing her discomfort, Owen took his eyes off her and that was when he realized that someone was standing beside her. He had totally forgotten that she had come here with Rina in the first place. He dragged bus eyes from her toe to her head and he had to say, she cleaned up nice as well Rina was putting on a pepper red long dress that had a slit at the side which exposed her well toned legs and her smooth fair skin. Her earrings were pure diamond and their black colour shone under the light in the restaurant. She was putting on a flat sli

CHAPTER FORTY THREE “You want me to get married to you?” Rina asked as she pointed her hands to her chest using her index finger and Owen nodded in agreement. She shook her head at the absurdity of his words,She found the whole thing amusing and confusing at the same time. “Yeah, that's the whole point” Owen said. He knew he was going to have a hard time convincing her to agree to this marriage but he knew he wouldn't go home without a victorious smile on his face. “Wow, are you naturally dumb? Or you're just delusional?” Rina asked and Veeda glared at her. She couldn't understand why Rina was so plain with her words. She didn't even try to sugarcoat her words or even care about how the person she was referring to would feel. She would just open her mouth and pour out her words without as much as a thought. “What made you believe that I would agree to your useless proposal? If I can actually call this whole drama a proposal? We just met about two days ago and You just called

CHAPTER FORTY FOUR After Kate said those words, the whole place went silent. Owen's heart thumped loudly in his ears. He knew he couldn't hide the truth from Rina, but he couldn't reveal it to her this early. He had planned to tell her after a little while, maybe after their marriage to avoid any complications before the wedding. Rina stared at Kate with a smirk on her face, she couldn't understand what Kate was trying to say, but she knew that whatever it was, it was meant to make her angry so she couldn't give her the satisfaction of knowing that she had succeeded in her plans. Although her words troubled Rina, she shielded it properly. “What do you mean by that?” Veeda spoke up this time, her patience clearly wearing off “You understand what I meant, not just you tho. I think the both of you understand but you would hate to admit it as you clearly know that admitting would only make your joy short lived and you wouldn't want that to happen. “Yeah, he's a divorcee, and so

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY SIX “I shouldn't have fought with her” Kate said, as she lay in bed with Mario in her room. She had thought of what happened between her and her mother earlier and now, she was feeling a little bit guilty. She could clearly understand the kind of pain and confusion her mother was in, and yelling at her that way was like pouring salt on an open wound. She had to sleep over it to realize that. Mario shifted on the bed and she understood he was trying to sit up. She sat up and he did too. They sat facing each other and he gave her a look that said ‘I told you so’ . “Don't give me that look” Kate said as she bent her face. She was already having a bad day without getting out of bed. She stood up from the bed and stripped to the bathroom. She washed her face and cleaned her teeth before coming out. She met him in the same position she had left him and she gave him a questioning look. “Aren't you getting out of bed?” She asked. “Hell, I am

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE They had been standing for the past ten minutes and Danny had not said a word to them even after everything Tyla had said. The guards had stopped banging the door and Rose Mary surmised that they had come to a conclusion that banging it would not make her open it. She had a cunny smirk on her face. “What do you say Danny? Just a word from you and those men outside will back down. You can end this, you alone can end it” Tyla continued, hoping she could convince her even though her hope was very low. “So, I should let him go? Is that what you are trying to say” She asked, her gun still pointing at Owen where he knelt on the floor. “Yes, and we can all go home in Peace” Rose Mary replied this time. “Here you are, talking of peace and still having a gun pointed at me. How peaceful that looks” Danny taunted. Owen looked between Rose and Tyla and he gave her a slow nod. She gave Danny a thorough look before gently bringing the gun

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FOUR Rina sat on the floor in the bathroom, she had left the shower on so she could cry and shout without anyone outside noticing even though she knew they wouldn't notice since the walls were soundproof and she had shut the door damn tight. She couldn't take Tyla's voice off her mind, the statement repeated itself severally in her ears and she tried to shut it off, but it wasn't working out. Of all the times, now that she had finally fallen for him, now that she had decided to be good, live a good life and make kids with him. She laughed warily. It seems fate has its own way of making decisions. She had finally become a first wife without even asking for it. Never in her wildest dreams would she think that something like this would actually happen. She didn't grow up in a polygamous family so she wouldn't want her kid to grow up in one as she knew about the issues that always resulted. She got under the running shower with her clothes on

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THREE She never thought Gabriel would think of coming here in this lifetime. “What the hell is Gabriel doing here?” She asked no one in particular “Tell him I'm on my way” she told the girl before going back in and she heard the girl leave. She went back into her room and she wiped the tears off her face and applied a little bit of makeup to shield her swollen under eyes. She came out after a little time and she went downstairs to see Gabriel. He came with his assistant, his handbag as she addressed him before. “To what do I owe this pleasure?” She asked as she walked down the stairs majestically. Gabriel and the man raised their heads up simultaneously to look at her. “Tamara” Gabriel called and she cocked a brow at him. “What is it Mr man?” She asked “How's Daniel?” He asked and she chuckled loudly. “Oh, you remembered to ask of him today. That's weird, did something happen to Owen? Huh? Best father of the year” She said, her voi

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY TWO “Hands up where I can see them” she heard him say again and she obeyed without complaining. She heard an engine roar and in no time, the whole place lit up. It seems they had put on the generator. She cursed as she saw the person pointing the gun at her. It was the man from earlier, the one she had not killed and she regretted that decision right now. She should have just killed him, but it was too late. Sb couldn't turn back the hand of time. She raised both of her hands up in the air and she saw another shooter come out from the back. It was Danny and it seems like the woman recognized her too because she smirked when she saw her. Tyla gave her a bored look, she had this haughty smile on her face. “What a surprise Tyla, looks like Owen couldn't man up and come by himself, so he sent you instead. That's funny” she said,her smirk not leaving her face. “Well, he didn't seem you worthy enough” Tyla replied with a calm smile and Danny cocked

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY ONE “Unfortunately, I can't. You have to listen to me” Mario yelled back and that earned him a glare from Kate. “I do not regret it because no matter how many times I look at it, all I can see is the day you walked through that door and then the moment you agreed to marry me” he paused for a while. “At first, I had decided that I would just play along until it was time to leave, but after spending a day with you, here in this house, I fell without second thoughts. I do not know what you have done or what you are doing to me Kate, heck I didn't even marry you out of love, but I can gladly tell you that this man right here is on a leash and you Kate, are the one who holds that leash” he paused again. He could see she was literally struggling with the tears that were threatening to pour out any minute. “I understand why you're acting this way, but I just want you to know that I am very sorry and I wish you would actually forgive me and we can go b

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY “What boss?” She asked and the girl replied hesitantly. “Mr Sinclair” she replied and Tamara was surprised. She never thought Gabriel would think of coming here in this lifetime. “What the hell is Gabriel doing here?” She asked no one in particular “Tell him I'm on my way” she told the girl before going back in and she heard the girl leave. She went back into her room and she wiped the tears off her face and applied a little bit of makeup to shield her swollen under eyes.

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE Owen had his arms wrapped around Tyla as they lay on the bed. He knew Rina would probably scream her head out if she came in and saw them in this position. But he had to do what was important and getting Tyla to sleep was very important at this moment. He ran his hand across her back and she relaxed against his touch. They lay side to side, her back pressed closely against his chest, while his arm was wrapped around her waist. “Owen” she called, her voice a little bit groggy. He could tell that she was almost falling asleep. “Hmm” he replied and she was silent for a while, the beeping sound of the machines in the room being the only sound audible. She sighed loudly before she finally spoke up. “Do you think bad people deserve to be loved too?” She asked and he was taken back by her question. He didn't think she would actually ask him something like this. “Yeah” he answered sincerely “Everybody deserves to be loved” he added. She wanted
