"It's about time you sign those damned papers!" Vivian's sweet sinister voice filled the room as her heels clanked with every step she took.

The moment Geoffrey heard her voice his mind filled with dread and the hate reminder he had for her.

All through the weekend he kept thinking how his life would be different if he had not married her or came across her.

He was blinded by her beauty and greed.

Geoffrey had decided to let go of what he had with her and now he was back to her house and was packing his things before her maid had brought the divorce papers for him to sign before he left.

"The witch awakes" he muttered loud enough for her to hear.

"Don't you agree this witch looks pretty this morning?" She said with a smile as she approached him "This witch is getting back on her feet and making a comeback" she said and circled him.

It was like a predator and prey situation because Vivian had something up her sleeves and Geoffery was oblivious to it.

"I'll be out of here in no time. Gi

    Days passed and turned into weeks. Vivian thought she was finally at rest when it came to her now second ex husband, who was in prison.But peaceful waters stirred when she got a call from jail and from none other than Geoffrey Hall.She wasted no time in going to see him."I've got only twenty minutes to spare so be fast with this" she said as she stood and the warden double cleaned her chair with enough wipes.She stood and eyed the place skeptically as Geoffrey stood with chains on his legs.After the prison warden finished cleaning her chair, she perched on it and refused to let her body touch any more thing than just the chair, the place irritated and scared her, but the disgust was evident."No amount of wipes can take away the filth this place has." She grumbled. "What can I do for you Geoffery? Why am I here?" She askedGeoffrey smiled as he watch her antics, not bothered by it."I have to take something off my chest" he said and shrugged.Vivian waited for him to talk but he

    Alphonse waited for the usual knock on his door announcing someone he had gotten used waiting for, but none was forthcoming.And waiting had not done him any good for the past few days so today also, he sighed and went to freshen up for the day like he had been doing for the last few days."Is Charlotte back?" Alphonse asked Peter as he headed downstairs and towards the kitchen that the girl was always hiding herself in.Peter followed him hot on his heels as was the matter that he was about to bring up."Sir, she took the week off because her father is sick and it's just been five days. She will be back by Monday" Peter informed him."Right. I was thinking she would change her mind and come early" Alphonse nodded as he scanned the kitchen.Since the day after the masquerade party Charlotte had made avoiding him the most important part of her job, at one point he almost broke the professionalism between he and her by confronting her but she quickly evaded it as usual.What increased

    “I believe we all understand why we are here now. Why don’t you let us in, Mr. Fischer. After all this is our house also” Ursula said as she clasped her hand in front of her after delivering her introductory message and gesture.Alphonse tilted his head and was still unmoving.“Sir” Peter nudged Alphonse almost unnoticeably as the young man refused to budge, he was getting angry by the minute and the stare off between Alphonse and Ursula continued.Peter cleared his throat a little not too subtle “Sir, I’ll prepare the study” he said and Alphonse quickly straightened and broke the stare off contest.“Of course.” Alphonse said with a forced smile through pursed lips. “Come on in.” He stepped aside. “Peter, please prepare the old study, my present one is immensely occupied with more important things” Alphonse was being messy and throwing jabs seeing the slap and their presence still angered him “About time” Ursula said with a wide smile, a first victory one on her part.Alphonse walke

    “Join us for dinner Peter. I am happy tonight and given my attitude for the past few days, I’m using this gesture as a means of apologizing. You deserve to be happy too, so join us” Alphonse said as the substitute maid in place of Charlotte set the table for their supper.“Of course sir” Peter said and drew a chair for himself.“Now Mother, I had them prepare your favorite dish and there’s also some tenderly cooked and marinated steak if you want some. And oh there’s some chicken breast, you can have everything to your fill tonight” Alphonse went on talking as Hannah stared on at him with a loving smile.Hannah stretched her hand out to his side and placed her hand on top of his to slow him down a bit.Alphonse stopped what he was doing and turned to smile at her.“You’re happy” she pointed out and it was true and very obvious.Alphonse nodded quickly with glee “You’re here, I should be” he said.“I’m glad you’re happy” she said and caressed his hand in a loving manner.Alphonse laugh

    “Mr Sanders” Alphonse greeted and shook hands with his Lawyer as he stepped into the office of Sanders & Co practices.“Alias Mr sawyer”, Philip Sanders said, laughing, and Alphonse joined in.“You really outdid yourself in that act, Mr Philip”, Alphonse said nodding his head while he remembered the stunt he and Philip Sanders had played on the Robinsons and reduced them to nothing.And the thought that it had been long since when Alphonse spoke to Vivian crossed his mind at that particular moment.“Indeed, I did. Take a seat please” Philip said and pointed to a chair which Alphonse took promptly.“Scotch or whiskey” Philip asked as he rummaged his wine cabinet for a drink that would suit the younger man.His frail figure hunched over the bottles and his eyes squinted and he looked over the labels of the drinks. The extent this witty man was going for him made Alphonse chuckle.“Whiskey, neat please.” He quickly said, trying to put the man out of his search misery and make him choose

    “You have to share it equally” Ursula complained as soon as Alphonse entered his study.Today after a series of caution from Peter, Alphonse was deciding to act civilized today. So he invited them to his personal study, but not before having his lawyer give them a brief on the disadvantages they had regarding the case theyl brought up.And thus, that prompted Ursula's whining and a deep scowl from Paul as soon as he entered the room. Alphonse looked at the deceitful mother and stolen son and he let out a small chuckle at the fraudulent act before addressing them.“We are just getting started Ursula. Have a sit” He pointed to the seat and Ursula snickered before sitting down."Whatever this is, better be worth my time" she muttered aloud as she lowered herself inside the soft plush seat."I can assure you it will be worth every while" Alphonse said with a smile and a brief nod.“I got your stupid message through my lawyer yesterday” Ursula said as soon as she was seated with her son.

    “I had a discussion with Geoffrey Hall,” Alphonse said over morning tea with Peter the next day.Peter nodded and slurped his tea noisily.“And what did he have to say about his father’s intrusion?” Peter peered into the face of the young man as he asked.Alphonse shrugged weakly and revealed what was already obvious to the old man.“He knows about it. It was all planned and it was to get my attention and make me work with him to get back at Vivian” Alphonse said.“But he could have done it without you. Why bring your mother into all of this?” Peter asked.Alphonse sighed and sipped his tea before replying.“He found out I was the owner of the Edmund company now and I had been married to her once so I would have enough dirt on her family and be the best person in the best position to help him get him back” Alphonse said and sighed again.Peter picked up his saucer and placed his teacup on top of it before setting it down back on the table and folding his arms.“And what have you chose

    “He’s in the building”“What’s he doing?” Alphonse asked the informant on the phone.He had paid someone to have Ivan Robinson, the crackhead junior brother of Vivian Robinson, follow.And that was what he was doing now.The younger man was the easiest option to tail and the best person to infiltrate the family from, Thomas had become a vegetable at the hospital and Margaret had eyes and ears on the ground.While nobody had heard from Vivian in days, she was too depressed and ashamed to come outside or be seen in public, since her famous family had become the laughing stock of the town.“He’s meeting up with Cornelius, they are taking out a trade” The informant told Alphonse.“Good, take as much evidence as you can. Give me something worth your pay” Alphonse said to the man over the phone“Yes sir” The man whose name he had refused to tell because of professionalism and secrecy, nodded as though Alphonse was there to see him.“Keep me posted” Alphonse said and ended the call as soon a

    Four years later “Liana you better stop running or you will fall!" Charlotte called out to her four years old daughter who ran outside as he brother chased her giggling. The twin brother came wheezing past his mother as she gathered their toys which they left haphazardly all over the living room. “Adrian come here right now and put on this jacket, it’s cold outside” she noticed he had not put on his jacket like his sister. Adrian did not come back but she could still hear their laughter outside. As if on cue thier father came downstairs with bed hair, he had just woken up from a nap. “Alphonse please control your children, they’re giving me a hard time today” she complained and picked up the last you. “Good Afternoon to you too Mrs Edmund” he said and kissed her on the cheek before going into the kitchen. He had changed his name officially to his father's name after the gruesome death of Ursula, as a way to keep the name of his father alive. That meant he also had to change h

    "Get my bag from the car you incompetent fool and stop staring at me like that" Ursula yelled at the new young man who had been hired two days ago to be her personal body guard and helping hand. "I'm sorry ma'm" he apologized quickly and ran to get her bag. "What's your name? Who hired you?" She asked him in pure anger but before he could reply she turned to the head of her staff, a grumpy looking burly man who stood far away. "Who hired him!" She yelled at the man who ran up to her. "I did" he replied her fearlessly. "What were you thinking hiring someone as useless as yourself?" She insulted the man who only rolled his eyes at her, he was used to her insults by now and was only working for the woman because he needed the money. "He is good at his job, he was recommended by an agency that is very good at recruiting body guards and personal assistants" he said and Ursula looked at him in disgust. "First thing tomorrow morning, get me someone who knows his job and looks a little

    A week later. "Baby! Can you get me the sunscreen!" It was not a request and Alphonse knew it so he stopped what he was doing and quickly went to bring the sunscreen for his wife. It was a week after their wedding and they were having their honeymoon in thier private beach house in Monaco, Italy. "Don't you just love how you boss me around?" He bent and kissed her, blocking the sun touching her body which was draped in a bikini. "Are you complaining?" She asked as her hand snaked around his neck and found its was into his hair. "Not at all my love" he said and kissed her again while Charlotte smiled. "How are you loving being back in your hometown?" He asked her as he came around her and sat on the beach bed, popping the lotion bottle open and getting ready to go to work. "My parents met here, and I am loving the fact that I came here with the man I love and married and plan on starting a future with" she said and started to untie the straps of her bikini. "I love you" he remi

    “You did that to my mother, ruined my life and my family’s and you have the nerve to stand before God and get married?” Vivian stumbled with a bottle of Alcohol towards the altar. “What is she doing here?” Charlotte asked getting angry at the sight of the other woman. “How did she get in here?” Carla asked dropping her bouquet of flower and stepping forward. "Today I will put my hands on her" she said walking towards her but Everest was quick to stand up and hold his wife. The whole church was turned into an uproar. "Don't do that Carina, sit down" Everest was also holding Carina back. “Father, give us fifteen minutes. I need to get this sorted out” Alphonse said with a sigh. Charlotte looked very sad and angry at the interruption at her wedding. Vivian was ruining the one day that was supposed to be the happiest in her life. “It will be okay baby, I will get her out of here as soon as I can” Alphonse said as he hooked a finger under her chin. Charlotte nodded wordlessly and

    "Oh my Lord, you look absolutely gorgeous!" "Stunning!" "You think so?" Charlotte turned with a nervous smile. Both Jennifer, Paul's mother and Hannah, Alphonse's mother came into the room with praises. "We don't think so, we know so honey. You are the most beautiful bride I have seen in a while. Don't let Jillian hear this by the ways" Jennifer said and they all laughed. "I am nervous" Charlotte said and both mothers looked at themselves before coming to seat on each of her side and held her hand. "It is your wedding day baby, it is understandable if you get scared. I mean we both never had weddings at this age but I knew if we had we would be as anxious as you are now, right Jennifer?" Hannah asked Jennifer who quickly nodded. "Right" she replied. "It's okay to be nervous baby, you're leaving your life as a single woman to start new with someone else. But you love him don't you?" Jennifer asked her and Charlotte nodded quickly. "I do" she smiled as the thought of A

    "Do you have plans for today?" Alphonse asked Charlotte as he kissed her lovingly.They had just had another bout of morning sex."Not really, I just plan on being lazy all day" she said and hooked one of her legs on his bare waist, their sweat and after sex juice rubbing against each other and staining the sheets."How about you being lazy about me?" He asked and kissed her again."Who else was I supposed to waste my day with?" She giggled as he burrowed his face into her neck."I'm glad I'm the only one on your mind" he said and kissed her cheek again."Mhmm" she laughed and licked her lips."Remember those sundresses you used to like back then?" He asked her and she turned in the bed to face him."Yes""Do you still like them?" He asked her and she smiled."Of course, they're my to go dresses when I want to relax and I planned on wearing one today. Look at the coincidence" she said and Alphonse laughed."Uhhh..." he hesitated and scratched his brow."Spill" she said to him as she k

    "Hey honey" Alphonse came into the room with a food tray."Hey" Charlotte sat up on the bed with a smile."Long night is it?" He asked her as he sat down on the bed and placed the food tray gently on by her side."What a gentleman you are Mr Fischer" she said with a giggle."Indeed, to make up for the lost energy of last night" he said to her with a wink and she laughed."It's too early Alphonse" she said laughing "It past one in the afternoon" he told her and her eyes widened."What? I slept that long?" She asked and looked around for her phone or wristwatch."After effects of your little drink with friends" he said and she blushed, covering her face slightly."I had no idea it was going to hit that much, I'm starting to think I was laced. Besides you added to my exhaustion, taking me up against the shower while I stood, if you look at it from my view you also contributed" she said and Alphonse smiled proudly."As long as you are satisfied, I don't care how tired you become.

    Charlotte chuckled and opened another button. “You are jealous,” she said. "I am" he replied to her quickly with a soft nod. "Why..." she asked, smiling at him . "You know why" he said to her but caught a whiff of wine on her breath and that made him smile. He now knew where she got her confidence from tonight. A bottle. "Are you drunk?" He asked her. Charlotte nodded and stepped back away from him, not knowing what his reaction to that might be. But as she took a step back she swayed a bit and Alphonse reached his hand out to steady her. "I had a little to drink," she said, pinching her index finger and thumb together, showing the extent to which she drank. And that made Alphonse chuckle, she was safe from the truth, mainly because he saw the glaze in her eyes and her smile was too much. But the smile was dropping slowly. "It's been a rough couple of months and I just wanted a time out you know." She explained but Alphonse was looking at her in confusion. She thought Al

    "Hello" “I regret the day my poor wife gave birth to you” Cornelius said to the other person on the phone as soon as he picked. "Father" Geoffrey said curtly. "Don't you ever call me that again!" Cornelius yelled as shots fired continuously. "I am sorry it had to come to this" Geoffrey said "You will be sorry when I get my hands on you!" "I wanted to warn you but they had me confined till they were sure they had got to you. Are you okay ...? Are those shots?" Geoffrey's voice went up very loudly. "You make sure you lose the name "Hall" you don't belong to me and you cease to exist the minute you sell me out" Cornelius warned him as a bullet flew past him and stuck in the windshield of the car Levi was speeding through the dust. "Father I am so sorry, if I had known I would get to this I would not have. I was tired of that prison and they said they were only going to capture you" Geoffrey was becoming afraid for his father.
