George smiled when he remembered Dan called him big bro. He had never had it in mind that he would be called big bro someday by someone who would consider him as family.He stood up and shook hands with Dan again and they went ahead to exchange a light hug before he sat down.Dan also sat but deep down, he was burning with fury. He didn't worry much because he had already tagged that George was nothing and can be eliminated easily after accessing his appearance, but his mentioning that he was married gave him a reason to be very worried because of their grandfather."So this calls for a special Family celebration and reunion. I would be happy and would live longer as my family is now complete," Mr. Winston said as he looked at his two handsome grandsons with a smile.A teardrop ran down his cheek which he quickly cleaned so he wouldn't show how emotional he is."Cathy, I have finally found your son. Your son that you cherish so much, I hope you find peace now and rest well in heaven a
Chapter 21.Work had resumed as usual for George. His foster father-in-law made sure he summoned him early to know he would be working to pay up the missing money. Which also meant that he wouldn't be paid for some months until the money was recovered.George didn't budge because of the money his mother's father gave him which he kept safely. He would have been left in a state of panic if he didn't have any hope in mind.He happily accepted and this surprised his foster father-in-law who thought he would beg and plead.His foster father-in-law angrily left him with plenty of deliveries to make and stated that it was his punishment before leaving the bakery. Kill, who had traced George to the bakery, met him arranging the piles of the packaged deliveries he was going to make. He was surprised as he never imagined he was a common delivery man who worked in a local bakery.He called Dan to give his report."I have found where he works and what he does for a living," Kill said to Dan."W
The next day, Anna's new suitor came along with his sister. He was a business mogul who owns plenty of companies around town and a notable figure too.Anna was out when they came, she probably went in search of George she found hanging around her foster father's bakery."George," she called out softly immediately after she saw him and started walking towards him. George looked up and saw her.He was startled and confused at first as to know the reason why Anna was walking towards him and maybe probably came in search of him."I'm sorry for everything, it wasn't intentional. I had to act that way to see what my foster parents thinks of me. I'm sorry," she apologized, which got George very surprised.He couldn't believe that Anna who was abusing him was apologizing. It left him so shocked that he was left speechless."You mean it was all fake?" George asked her."Yes, it was. Even the divorce too. We ain't divorced, that was a fake divorce paper I made to fool them, and don't worry abou
It's been two days since the incident. Juliet didn't come to school nor ever showed up as the girls instructed."She is getting on my nerves already," Anna overheard Rhoda say, feeling very angry as they gathered together in the abandoned hall, disappointed that Juliet hadn't shown up since that day.She had been trailing them around."She finally ran away as others do," Christine said to them."Maybe!" Amaya agreed."Why don't things always work for me, I mean for us?" Rhoda asked them. "Juliet would have been the scapegoat we do use to get our results and change the marks before giving them to our parents, but she has disappeared since that day. What are we going to do? The day our parents would request our results is getting closer," Amaya said feeling apprehensive."Don't worry! Maybe she hasn't gotten the results," Christine said."No Christine, she hasn't come to school since that day, I think she has ran away," Amaya replied."Enough! No one dares disobey me, I will teach her
Anna got to school the next day and saw Juliet already in school."Hey, babe!" She called and walked to her desk."Hey! What happened? you have bruises all over," she said as she looked at the bandage on Anna's hand. The previous day, Anna had gotten into a fight with Austin but luckily, George came to her rescue."I got into trouble yesterday but it wasn't serious anyway," Anna said to her. She refused to mention it was Austin.They got carried away with other important talks and started discussing and laughing as it was a free lesson period that morning."I am looking for Anna and Juliet," a senior student announced, drawing Anna and Juliet's attention."We are here," Anna replied and waved her hand to signify."Okay follow me to the principal's office, he asked me to come to invite you guys to his office," the senior said."Oh, my God! It's today Anna," Judith panicked as she remembered that they were supposed to come with their parents today as the principal had instructed."Don't
After Juilet and her brother left, Anna paced up and down the room she used to share with George thinking of how to tell her foster parents that she was not interested in the marriage.She wanted to tell them it had all been fake and pretense because she no longer hated George. She wanted to stick to him and try out their marriage with him again.She wanted them to start anew by loving each other, other than hating each other.She had come to realize that even though George wasn't also in support of the Marriage from the onset, he was able to adjust and easily accept her.He had always stood up for her and had shown her great care but she never returned it because she always blamed him for their marriage.She had always told him that if he didn't show up in their life, her life would have been better with the man she loved.She sighed as she felt very bad about everything. She thought about where George might be passing the night since she was asked to leave.He had earlier told her h
Sally's mom called to know how she was going with her arrangements with Austin.She needed to care carefully and while doing that also act fast for their plan to come to pass.She assured her mother that she was doing all she can and would soon come up with a positive result which made her mother calm.Thinking a lot about Austin's failure and everything, Sally decided to go to the club with a friend to chill and forget everything that had happened. She didn't want to feel angry at Austin yet because she needed patience for her mission to accomplish even though she didn't like him. Sally followed her friend, Mabel, to the club. On getting to the club, they learned that Austin was present and was hosting a party which Sally didn't know the reason for.She asked that they ignore him which they did and walked to an empty table in another part of the club. When they got in and sat down, her eyes were not leaving a handsome stranger she bumped into while coming into the club.He was
Bright lights blinded Sally's eyes as she opened them, she rubbed slightly on her eyes to clear her vision and looked around. She was inside a strange room alone under white sheets. She sprang up to her feet wondering what she was doing inside the strange room alone. As she tried to go off the bed, she felt dizzy and wanted to throw up. She rushed into the available bathroom sighted inside the room and started throwing up inside the water closet that was left open. Sally continued throwing up until nothing was left in her stomach. She wiped her mouth and dragged herself out of the bathroom. As she sat back on the bed wondering what she was doing in the strange room, all the events from last night came rushing into her memories. Sally cursed and quickly checked herself, she had had a wild night with the guy.She cursed out loud thinking of what to do.She took a deep breath and started searching for her handbag but it was nowhere inside the room. She remembered she dropped it when
