Mr William always made sure that he called Amelia to greet her, at least twice a week, and it was obvious to his wife and other children. He liked Amelia and could not hide it, even before he got to know that she was his child. He believed Amelia was brilliant. Mrs William still had some ill feelings toward Amelia. A close family friend of the Williams was told about Amelia and Dub's birth, and because of this they acted irrationally towards Mrs William, and labelled her evil for exchanging the children, even though they kept the information secret from outsiders. This reaction made Mrs William feel somewhat ashamed, careful and suspicious of anyone who came around her, believing that their family friend may have leaked the secret in some way. Mrs William also felt pained anytime she remembered that she had no male child to call her own; even though Dub still contacted her and related with her well as his mother, she still felt like she was no longer his mother. Apart from the fea
Now, Vera was working very closely with Donald being his Secretary. Vera had ended her relationship with her jealous boyfriend. On one Monday evening, Vera had to submit some files to Donald's office, before leaving for home, since work was over for the day. So she entered his office to see him. As soon as she dropped the files on his table and was about to leave, Donald called her back. "Hey, Vera. You're not looking very bright. Hope everything is okay?" Donald asked. "Fine...I broke up with him last weekend, and I'm trying to get over it," Vera said. "Oh, sorry. You just have to get going. And...I think you were into the wrong relationship, so it makes it better," Donald said, then he paused for a while trying to study Vera's reaction, but she looked expressionless. "You see, I was like you, but the difference between us is that I quickly let go of the relationship. I was married, and I loved my wife sincerely, but I never knew that she was my sworn enemy. She jilted me while
Mr William began to develop certain challenges with his health. He suddenly began to breathe very fast one Thursday night, unable to sleep and this caused panic among his wife and children. So they rushed him to the hospital. Before Mr William's driver could arrive at the hospital, he died on the way. His wife and children mourned for him and it was a sordid experience for the William family. When Amelia got to know about it, she cried endlessly and found it very difficult to be comforted. Mr William was both a father and friend to her and she knew that no one could fill up the vacuum that he had left. Because of the loss, she and Dub took three days to leave from work, so decided to spend the leave with her family, since everyone needed to be together this time, at least to comfort each other. On the first day that she arrived there, everyone was busy weeping and no one seemed to see anybody. Amelia had noticed that her mother did not stop crying since she arrived and the peopl
It was a new day at Albert Jeff Automobiles, and the staff resumed one after the other. Everyone was full of life as they got ready for the day's work. Donald arrived late this morning compared to the other days. He was known for his puctuality, even though he was the General Manager. But on this fateful day, he was late. He felt weak with pains in his tummy earlier that morning, but he still managed to go to work. He had the intention of closing from work earlier that day so that he could rest. As he walked into the company, he was greeted by the staff left and right. He waved his hands to them in response, and walked majestically towards his office. He inserted the key into the door to open it, and almost suddenly, he fell to the ground. "Ahh..." "Ohhh...." Jesus!" were the sudden cries that were from the staff that were around at that time. "Please, wake up! Wake up! The staff with him began to shout and shake his body, expecting him to wake up suddenly, but Donald lay stiff
"No, Martins. We no longer had any business with each other since we graduated from high school. You can't spend the rest of your life with me. I'm engaged to someone and will be getting married soon," Amelia replied to Martins over the phone. "No, Amelia. It can't be any other man but me. Remember how I used to call you my future wife, and how you always smiled at it? Amelia, we're meant for each other. You just need to give me a chance," Martins said. "No, Martins! No! I've heard enough of this conversation. I've told you to take your mind off it because I'm engaged! More so, I can't love you or have anything to do with you!" Amelia spoke at the top of her voice. Even if she wasn't in a relationship with anyone, she couldn't consider him because he was a criminal. They met again during one of his criminal operations, and even if he was the only option left for a boyfriend or husband, she couldn't consider him. This made Martins furious. He and his colleague would have raped her
"Errrmm...We can always get a kidney donor," Mr Jeff replied to his wife. "Then... argh...what about you? I think you're healthier than me, and being his parent makes it easier. Why don't we try this, dear?" Mrs Jeff asked her husband. "Errrm...arrh..." Mr Jeff wasn't sure of what to say. He wasn't ready to tell his wife directly that he wasn't ready to donate his kidney. He had heard of what it means to donate a kidney, and how kidney donors needed to be more careful in their lifestyles about what they eat and drink after donating a kidney. Now, he was confused about what to do. He knew that if he told his wife that he wasn't ready to donate his kidney, she would term him to be wicked. She was a very compassionate person, and she didn't mind going out of her way to help someone, even if it was to her disadvantage sometimes. He was sure that she would have loved to donate her kidney, if not for the state of her health. She had never had sound health in the last year; she was only
"Let me in, Dub," Linda said. Dub looked at her and opened the door wider for her to come in. "Now, tell me why you're here. Don't you care if my girlfriend is around?" Dub asked looking at Linda with a frown. Linda chuckled. "Do you think I would have come here if she was around?" I'm sure she's not around; that's why I'm here," she said, smiling at Dub as she went to sit on one of the sofas. The house was very quiet and Dub's servant was not close by, so he was not sure of what to do. He felt like calling Amelia and telling her that Linda was in his house, or doing something that would make her leave, but he felt handicapped. He stood staring at her for a while as if to throw her out, but he knew deep in his heart that he was tempted by her. She looked very seductive in the outfit that she wore. And almost immediately, he remembered the nudes she had sent to him. He tried to get the dirty thoughts off his mind, but he found it very difficult. He loved Amelia and did not want to
The hospital was yet to find a kidney donor for Donald. He was still on the waiting list and was in critical condition right now. Mr and Mrs Jeff had made several attempts just to get him a donor. His family and loved ones visited him at the hospital and showed him love and care, but no one seemed to be ready to donate his or her kidney for Donald. Back at Albert Jeff Automobiles, some of the staff discussed Donald's critical condition, and how they missed him. It was close of work at the company, and most of the staff were tidying up their desk to go home. "Do you know about the GM's current state of health? I wonder when he'll be resuming back to work," said Cecil, one of Vera's colleagues. "Well, I don't know. I just hope he gets back soon," Vera replied. "Same here. He's so hardworking, and he relates well with everyone. Since his absence from work, the company has felt it one way or the other. He's a unique leader," Cecil said."Well," Vera said as she picked up her bag to le
