CHAPTER FIFTY SIX The celebration had come to an end, and it was time for them to return to their respective homes. Maria was beyond happy as she could see the envy on the faces of the people she had invited to the party. Even those who had claimed to be happy about the upcoming union, were all jealous and this made her ego bloat. “It's late already, we need to go home and take rest before the day breaks” Maria told Esme and Esme sighed. She had tried to convince her to stay the night and return to her house the next day, but Maria had refused. It seemed she still had a little bit of pride in her. Esme saw them out of the house, she and Maria gave each other a hug and Kate said her goodbyes to Jake. They drove out of the compound and Katherine retired to her room, while Jake offered to see Esme to hers. As soon as they got into Esme's room, Jake shut the door behind him. “What you tried to do today, do you know the risk you would be putting your son in if you had succeeded

CHAPTER FIFTY SEVEN Owen ran into the hospital premises like a mad man, while Mia and Rina tried to catch up with him. The nurses and doctors there had to give him space, to avoid running into him and vice versa. Owen raced to the room, since he was preinformed of the room number. He was told that his father slumped down and was admitted in the hospital, so he had to rush to meet him. He stopped in front of the room and pushed the door open with full force. He stepped into the room and was surprised to find out that there was no one there. He took his phone out from his pocket, by this time, Rina and Mia were already in the room. He called his father's number and it rang. He could hear the ringing from the room and he tried to find the phone. In no time, he saw the phone at the side of the hospital bed. He noticed that the bed cloth was rumpled, which meant that he had been here, but where could he have gone? A thousand thoughts ran through his head as he thought of a

CHAPTER FIFTY EIGHT Owen, Rina and Mia had left the hospital after hearing the doctors instructions. Owen had a solemn expression on his face, as he couldn't get his father's condition out of his mind. Somewhere within him, he felt that something was wrong. He had not spoken to his father, as he was still asleep when they left. They had waited for a while expecting him to wake up, but when he didn't, Owen knew they had to leave, duty calls. As long as the doctors confirmed that he was not dead, he tried to calm his mind. **************** “What a stressful day” Maria said as they walked into the lobby. She was all smiles as she couldn't get the thought of the upcoming wedding off her mind. “I'll be in my room” Kate said and left. Maria huffed, she was less concerned about Kate's tantrums. This wedding was her only concern at the moment, and she was willing to do anything to make it come to pass. She didn't know why Esme was asking her all those questions, but she was

CHAPTER FIFTY NINE “Good morning” Rina said with a small smile as she saw Owen in the kitchen, in an apron. She had just woken up from sleep, and was about to go check out the gym when she saw the kitchen door slightly open. She was surprised to see Owen there as it had crossed her mind to check up on him before coming down, but she didn't want to disturb his sleep. He looked good in an apron and she had to admit, it made him look more sexy. “Morning, and where are you headed to, dressed like that?” Owen asked with a raise of his brows and Rina smiled “The gym, I thought I heard you say you had one around. Or is there something wrong with my dressing?” She asked as she cross-checked her clothes. She was putting on a two piece gym suit which hugged her curves and she looked like a seductress in it. “No, there's nothing wrong with it, I just thought you were heading somewhere dressed like that” Owen said with a disapproving look “Assuming I was going somewhere, is there a

CHAPTER SIXTY Tamara had not done to work this morning as she had some preparations to make. She was having a meeting with Owen later in the day and she needed a calm head in order to plot a twist that would be hard to decipher. Time was running and she knew she had to make a good plan in order to make sure her property comes back to her hand. Owen has gotten wiser over the years and she couldn't possibly use the first tactics she used in collecting the properties, as she was sure that it wouldn't work. She held a cup of hot coffee in her hands as she sat in the garden, sipping slowly. Her company's stocks was reducing daily and although she wasn't really doing anything much about it, she couldn't just fold hands and watch her company go bankrupt as it would be a shame to her, and it was also her most lucrative source of income. “Owen” she hummed She took a peak at the watch in her hand and she sighed. It was a few minutes past 10:00 and her meeting was by 11:00 she

CHAPTER SIXTY ONE “I'll be back before you know it” Owen told Rina as he placed a soft kiss on her forehead. They had just finished eating the meal prepared by Mia in the boys quarter’s kitchen, as theirs had been damaged already due to the fire. They had received the scolding of their life, and Mia had put the whole blame on Owen, although she knew it wasn't entirely his fault, Rina was also to be blamed, but she couldn't see herself directing her anger at her, because the young lady was just too adorable. “Babe” he called as he placed a kiss on her neckline. Rina had turned her back to him, and he found the whole thing amusing. He didn't know she was this clingy, he was new to it, and he liked this part of her. “Babe” he called again, but she didn't budge. “Hey, look at me, I'll be back before you know it, Owen cajoled and Rina turned to him, pouting her lips and Owen was tempted to laugh at the way she looked, but he held himself at the last minute “Are you sure?

CHAPTER SIXTY TWO It's been about two hours since Owen left and Rina was not settled. She had this feeling in her gut that something was wrong somewhere, and she couldn't just wipe that feeling off. She had thought of calling him, but she didn't want to sound like a clingy wife so she didn't. Owen had asked her to come with him but she had refused, and she was regretting that decision now. She paced back and forth as she held her phone in her hand, contemplating if she should call him. Mia walked into the room and she was not so surprised to see Rina there, considering what happened between she and Owen earlier today. But she had forgotten to knock and was about to apologize when she saw the uneasiness in Rina’s stance. She looked like someone who was on the verge of losing it and this made her frown. Could it be that something had gone wrong between her and Owen after her scolding? But she knew that wasn’t logical reasoning. They were both rolling in the sheets a while ago, s

CHAPTER SIXTY THREE Rina placed the phone on her ear after dialing Gabriel's number, just as she had been told to. Mia was praying silently, and at the same time, she was crying too. He picked up on the first ring, but she wasn't surprised to hear the voice of his assistant, instead of his. “Hello” the man said and Rina replied almost immediately. “Good day sir, Rina speaking” she answered and the man already knew who she was, from the voice. “Oh, your father in law is not available at the moment, is there any information you would like me to relay to him?” He asked her and Rina replied immediately, she wasn't in the mood for all these questions and answers. “Owen's been kidnapped, the Head of security asked me to contact his father” “Kidnapped? How? When? This is not good” the man said, his panic rising on the phone. “How, I don't know, When, he left here about three hours ago for a meeting with his stepmother Mrs Sinclair, and he had told me that he would b

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.

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
