Dub returned to Donlow without travelling with Amelia. Even though Amelia tried to call him so that the both of them would travel together, Dub didn't pick up her calls. Amelia arrived at Donlow city with Mr and Mrs Cox who stayed with her at her house. She went to work the next morning and observed that Dub was very cold towards her. The Coxs planned to visit the Williams as soon as Amelia returned from work that fateful day. Later that evening when Amelia returned from work, Mr and Mrs Cox were already dressed, awaiting her arrival. "Let me go take a shower," Amelia told her parents as she entered the house. Within a short while, she was out of the bathroom. She put on a simple dress, and then they all left for the Williams' house. As soon as Dub arrived from Parker city, he confronted his Mum about the news he heard about his birth from Mrs Cox, but his mother denied it and asked him to stay away from the Coxs family. "Dub, you are my biological son. That gold-digger's mother
After Mr and Mrs Cox's visit to the Williams, Mr William decided that a DNA test be carried out on Dub and Amelia to be sure that Amelia was their real child. Even though his wife didn't deny swapping their real child for another, he still needed to be sure of Amelia's identity.However, the result of the DNA test confirmed that Amelia was Kevin's real child, while Dub belonged to the Coxs. Now, Dub had no option but to accept his real parents, even though he found it very hard to do. He was already knitted to the Williams. After all, they were the ones who took care of him from childhood. Dub's two sisters were also heartbroken when they found out the truth about his identity. They found it difficult to believe at first, but they later believed. "Dub, you may not be my biological son, but you're still my son," Mr William told Dub, as he drew him close to hug him. Dub and Amelia needed to take some leave from work at different times to be with their new parents. Mr William had man
Rodney and Mayor had succeeded this time around in bringing down the CEO of Ferex Company, Mr Scott Barton. They made sure that the false allegations levelled against him were found to be true. This was a stepping stone for Rodney who took joy in the whole process. He was happy that he would soon become the next CEO of Ferex company. This time around, he would do all he could to make it a reality. He made his interest known to the election committee and submitted every credential that he felt would make the committee accept his application. Just as he expected, he was made the CEO of Ferex company and was glad that his plans were gradually coming to fruition. While he was still happy about the letter he had just received from his Secretary, he heard a knock on his door. "Come in. The door is not locked," Rodney said; then the door was pushed open and a young man walked in. "Congratulations!" The young man said as he walked towards Rodney. "Thank you, Mayor. It wouldn't have been
Amelia had been getting well along with the William family, although she noticed Flora's coldness towards her, and tried so much not to allow it get to her. Mr William tried to tolerate Flora's presence when she first returned, but when Amelia noticed that her father was still bitter against her mother, she did all she could to re-unite her parents before her leave was over. Meanwhile, Dub was at Donlow city all the while that Amelia was at Parker city with her parents.Dub was invited to a party by one of his rich childhood friends, so he decided to grace the occasion as soon as he returned from work.It was the birthday party of one of his childhood family friends. When he arrived at the venue, the whole place was filled with guests, and some cool music was being played in the background.Most of the people who attended the party were young people from different walks of life. Dub moved to seat at a table at the right side of the hall when he entered.It looked like he came in too
"Well, I just think that's none of your business. And is that the reason why you called me back?" Sandra asked Mrs Yale rudely. "No, dear. Please sit," Betty said calmly. "I never knew you were the one I was going to meet, and I'm not supposed to tell you what I'm about to tell you since you betrayed my family," Betty said, then she paused for a while and stared at Sandra. "I felt I needed to see whoever was Donald's wife when I discovered the evil planned against her by his family," Betty said. "And what do you mean?" Sandra asked. "Well, I'm not ready to dive into that right now. She has told me so many things about what she planned to do against you, but I don't think all of that is relevant right now. The only thing I think you should be mindful of, is how to take an act of revenge against that family, especially against their son who is now your husband," Betty said looking very serious. "And don't tell me that this is the reason why you called me here. The truth is, I don'
Since the time Amelia saw the pictures showing Dub and a lady, she tried to avoid any close contact with Dub. Every conversation between them at the company was strictly about work and nothing else. Dub could notice that Amelia had developed cold feet towards him, so he made various attempts to speak with her; but, she always resisted him and avoided any informal conversation with him. Amelia was through with work for the day and was on her way to where she had parked her car on the company's premises when she saw a man standing beside it. "You're looking so beautiful, Amelia," the man remarked as Amelia moved closer to her car, but she ignored him and walked to the driver's side. "Amelia, I love you and I promise that you'll be happy with me if you give me a chance," the man said."I have told you that I'm not interested in a relationship with you. I already have a boyfriend..." "Hahaha..." the man's laughter interrupted her words. "Do you call a Casanova your boyfriend? An addi
"Amelia was admitted to the hospital yesterday," a female voice responded. Dub had not seen Amelia at work since morning, and he remembered that she didn't tell him that she wasn't going to be around."But she wasn't sick, so how come she's in the hospital?" Dub asked in surprise. "One of her neighbours said she fainted on her way out of her house, and so she was brought here," the female voice added. "My goodness!" Dub exclaimed as he hung up on the phone. He wouldn't have known if he had not called Amelia's phone.It was 3 pm and Amelia was not at work; that was why he decided to call her, but her phone was picked up by someone else. He was so engrossed with work; that he didn't have the time to call her before that time.Immediately it was close of work, Dub couldn't wait any longer. "I have to go and see Amelia at the hospital," he told himself. He picked up his phone from the table, and every other thing he wanted to take home, and walked out of his office. "What could have go
Amelia was now discharged from the hospital, so she returned to work. Dub and Amelia no longer related to each other as if they were still in a relationship, but they acted coldly towards each other. Kelfort Companies Inc. looked like the only thing that brought the both of them together. At the close of work on Tuesday evening, Dub summoned some courage to speak with Amelia.She had picked up her bag to go home and was standing at the exit of her office to lock the door when she heard her name called. "Amelia, please can I see you briefly at my office?" Dub asked. "Well, I'm not sure. Work is over for today, and I have to be home right now," Amelia replied. "I know. But trust me, it's going to be brief," Dub tried to cajole her. "Alright, then," Amelia replied and walked over to Dub's office reluctantly. "Amelia, why have been cold towards me lately? You haven't been responding to my gestures, calls, or text messages. And anytime I come to visit you, you pretend not to be at home.
In the dimly lit courtroom, the judge pronounced Frank's sentence with a solemn voice, "Frank Stevens, you have been found guilty of your involvement in the conspiracy to harm Donald. Your actions have caused immense pain and suffering. The court hereby sentences you to twenty-five years in prison for your crimes."As the gavel fell, Frank's world crumbled around him. He had been a willing participant in Albert's sinister plans, but now he faced the consequences of his choices. With his head bowed, he was led out of the courtroom, his freedom forever lost.Meanwhile, Rodney's fate hung in the balance as his trial unfolded. The evidence against him was overwhelming, from his confession to the damning testimony of his former associates.The weight of his crimes pressed heavily on him, and as the days turned into weeks, Rodney knew that the outcome of this trial could be his last.The day of Rodney's sentencing arrived with an air of anticipation. The courtroom was packed with spectators
One evening, as Amelia and Suzy sat in the Williams living room, sipping tea, Suzy opened up about her doubts regarding Scott, her suitor."Amelia," she began hesitantly, "I'm just not sure about Scott. He's so different from the guys I usually date. He's quiet and reserved... I don't know if he's the right fit for me."Amelia listened carefully, her heart going out to her sister. She could see the uncertainty in Suzy's eyes, but she also saw the love that shone through when Suzy spoke about Scott."Suzy," Amelia said gently, "sometimes, we have to look beyond the surface to see the beauty within. Scott may be quiet, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care deeply for you. Within the little time I've seen him here, I've noticed the way he looks at you when he thinks no one's watching. It's a look of pure adoration."Suzy sighed, torn between her feelings for Scott and her uncertainty. "I guess I just need some reassurance. I want to be sure that he's as committed to this relationship as
One sunny Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Williams and Suzy decided it was time to extend an olive branch to Amelia. They had been reflecting on their past judgments and treatment of her and felt a deep sense of remorse. They realized that Amelia had transformed into a remarkable woman and deserved their love and support. Suzy was the one who picked up the phone to make the call. She dialled Amelia's number, her fingers trembling with anticipation. After a few rings, Amelia's warm voice filled the line. "Hello?" "Amelia, it's Suzy," Suzy began hesitantly. "I was wondering if you and your baby would like to come over to our place today. Mom and I have something we'd like to talk to you about." Amelia, surprised by the invitation, agreed. She had hoped for reconciliation with her family and was eager to see if this was the beginning of a fresh start. "Sure, Suzy. We'd love to come over. What time should we be there?" Suzy quickly arranged a time, and they hung up. She then turned to her mo
On a crisp, early morning, the sun had just begun its ascent, casting a gentle golden hue across the city. Albert was preparing to leave for work. He meticulously straightened his tie, checked his reflection in the hallway mirror, and grabbed his briefcase.As he stepped out of his front door, the cool morning air greeted him. He started down the path toward his car, parked at the curb.The familiar routine of his daily commute was etched into his subconscious, and he moved with a sense of purpose. But as he reached the car door, a sudden, sharp voice cut through the calm morning air."Albert Dallas, freeze! Put your hands up!"Albert's heart skipped a beat as he turned to see several police officers, their badges glinting in the morning light, guns drawn and pointed at him. Panic surged through him as he raised his hands in compliance, his briefcase slipping from his grip and landing on the pavement with a thud.The neighbours, drawn by the commotion, peered through curtains and from
Amelia sat on her bed this morning, As the first rays of sunlight pierced through her living room window, she felt something she hadn't expected - sharp cramps in her tummy.At first, she dismissed the discomfort as nothing more than indigestion from last night's dinner. But as the minutes passed, the pain intensified, and she realized that this was something different. Something significant.Amelia tried to stand up, but the pain was too much. She knew she needed help. With trembling hands, she reached for her phone and dialled the number of her next-door neighbour, Mrs Johnson.Mrs. Johnson had always been a kind and caring woman, and Amelia hoped she would be able to assist her in this moment of need."Hello, Amelia?" Mrs. Johnson's voice came through the phone, filled with concern."Mrs. Johnson," Amelia managed to say between breaths, "I'm in a lot of pain. I need your help. Can you come over?"Without hesitation, Mrs. Johnson assured her that she'd be right there. In a matter of
The day was bright and sunny when Vera was scheduled to be discharged from the hospital. She had made significant progress in her recovery, both physically and emotionally, thanks to the unwavering support of Albert and the therapy she had undergone.Her heart still carried the memory of her late husband, Donald, and the strange encounter at their wedding, but she was determined to move forward.As Vera sat on the hospital bed, she became lost in thoughts as she remembered Donald and how much they loved each other before he suddenly passed away. Still lost in thoughts, the door to her hospital room swung open slowly.Vera's heart raced, thinking it was one of the nurses or therapists coming in for a routine check. But when she turned her head and her eyes met the figure standing in the doorway, her world seemed to stand still.It was Donald!Vera's eyes widened in shock, and she felt as though her heart was about to leap out of her chest. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Dona
One crisp, sunny weekend, Dub stood nervously in front of Amelia's house. He had spent countless nights rehearsing the words he wanted to say, but now that he was here, facing her, his heart was pounding like a drum. He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.Amelia, who had been in the living room reading a book, heard the knock and set her book aside. She opened the door and was taken aback to see Dub standing there. "Dub?" Amelia's voice wavered with surprise.Dub cleared his throat, his nerves getting the best of him. "Amelia, can we talk? Please."Amelia hesitated for a moment before stepping aside to let him in. She couldn't deny that she was surprised to see him at her house. This was his first time visiting her since he started working at Malipine Group.Seeing him at her house brought back a rush of memories, both good and bad. Dub entered, and the door closed behind him.They found themselves in the living room, facing each other. The silence hung heavy in the air as bo
On Albert and Vera's wedding day, the air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the gentle rustling of leaves provided a soothing backdrop.As they walked down the aisle, Albert and Vera moved in perfect harmony, their steps slow and deliberate, as if savouring every moment.Vera, resplendent in her elegant wedding gown, glided forward with grace and poise, her eyes locked onto Albert's.Her veil flowed behind her like a delicate cloud, adding an ethereal touch to her beauty.Albert, standing tall in his impeccably tailored suit, wore an expression of pure love and devotion.His eyes never left Vera, and his smile radiated warmth and happiness. With every step, he moved closer to the love of his life, and it felt like the world had faded away, leaving only the two of them.The aisle itself was adorned with petals of vibrant colours, creating a vibrant contrast against the lush greenery of the garden.The guests watched in awe as the couple made their way toward the
As Amelia and Dub worked together at Malipine Group, their professional relationship began to flourish. They were both dedicated to their roles and shared a common goal of contributing to the company's success.However, as time passed, Dub couldn't help but be reminded of their history together.One day, during a lunch break, Dub and Amelia found themselves sitting across from each other in the office cafeteria.They had become friends once again, sharing stories and laughter as they enjoyed their meal. But beneath the surface, something was stirring within Dub, something he hadn't felt in a long time.He remembered the first time he had met Amelia at Kelfort, and how they had worked closely together. He wasn't in any way attracted to Amelia at the initial stage, but as time went on, he fell head over heels in love with her.They had crossed several hurdles before getting married to each other. He thought of how their marital bliss had been cut short when Linda came in between them.H
