    Chapter 1(The Man before the Tomb)

    Right at the Madre Cemetery in Denor city, a man cladded on a thick black coat had his knee knelt before a tomb. It was raining but the standing soldiers had umbrellas covering him. “Rest in peace Naomi Meth” were the words that were meticulously carved on the tomb. “Rest in peace” he chuckled dryly and sadly, pain and fire etched in his eyes as he mumbled the well carved words on the lifeless stone. He waved his head in disappointment, and exhaled softly “Not yet nanny Naomi, not when those murderers are still breathing.” He heaved an odd smile as he tilted his head down before extending his hand in the air and a black hat was handed on to him by one of his men. Fully on his feet, he gulped his saliva and took a last glance at the desolate grave, “Until those murderers are down to the very last of them, you shall have no rest. I will be both God’s sword of justice and vengeance.” Redmond Red swore, his eyes and lips meaning every word that he enunciated while he took a last

    Chapter 3(A Wild Adventure)
    “What's your name, young man?” Mr. Charles asked, his gaze hanging on Redmond.“Redmond Red” he answered without hesitation knowing that they won't find anything spectacular on him if they decide to investigate his person.Mr. Charles walked closer to him and with a skeptical look, he asked. “Can you deal with what you have just witnessed? Are you going to take her as your own wife?”“Get on with it Charles! Let's not dilly-dally all day.” Jude interrupted and matched towards them with grit. His patience has clearly gone thin. He roughly grabs Ruth's hand and turns his gaze on Redmond Red.After rolling his eyes all over him, with a condescending voice, he said, “She is all yours. Come back in five days to get your certificate and your reward.” He hands Ruth to him in a shabby manner. “Congratulations, though I wonder why a man will want to have anything to do with this monster.” He spewed carelessly.Redmond’s muscle tightened up immediately. His gaze was stern while he had his furro

    Chapter 4(The Miracle)
    Ruth could only open her eyes after seven days. As expected, she was weak and tired. She could barely recognize or remember anything. The last thing she could remember was a syringe piercing through her skin. Gradually as she dragged herself out from the bed, everything started making sense. She yelped on taking a look at her body. She was in a different outfit meaning that someone must have seen her nakedness. “Wakie wakie” Redmond called out in a humorous manner leaving Ruth shocked as he was behind her all along. “Don't worry, I didn't see anything that I wasn't meant to see.” He assured with a sly smile having witnessed her reaction earlier. Ruth's face turned red in a flash. She was embarrassed as a frown crept into her face. “How are you feeling?” He asked as he drew closer to her. Ruth raised her eyebrow in confusion, her hands in the air, “I don't know how I am feeling. I don't even know how I meant to feel.” “Ok” Redmond replied and then brought out the Humly flower an

    Chapter 5(Tana's quest)
    It is seven days already yet no one from the Teleimans family bothered to know how Ruth was faring. To them, she was better off dead than alive. She has been the reason why the family stocks have plummeted for years. Ruth may have been part of the family but she was never treated like one. Being adopted by the unfavored late James Teleimans’ wife, Tana, didn't help matters either. Grandpa Bruce had two sons, James and Jude in their order of succession. Jude Teleimans was the favoured one while James wasn't, even before his untimely demise. Tana had adopted Ruth since she was her only surviving relative following her mother's death. Tana had only one child, Oliver Teleimans, a Teleimans that was barely treated like one. Oliver and Tana were relegated to the average cost residence behind the main Teleimans' mansion. Oliver and her mother were barely surviving, living off on the monthly wage from the Teleimans business. It was crazy how he had to work his ass off to make ends meet

    Chapter 6(The Deal)
    “No one dares stand before me and insult me. No one.” Redmond icily admonished. “My tooth, he smash..ed my to..th!” Arthur bellowed and writhed in pain. His eyes were red as blood dripped from his mouth. Just then, Edmund Weah, Avery’s fiancée, got hold of the coffee cup on the table and dashed off to smash it on Redmond. “Stop, Edmund! Don't touch a hair on him!”” Grandpa yelled and he stopped in his tracks. From all indications, the Weah boy was determined to avenge his brother-in-law. “Please Grandpa, allow me to put this fool in his place.”Edmund beckoned with fury, the coffee cup still on his palm. “Dad? Are you going to allow him to get away with this?” Jude Bellingham queried with utmost surprise as he watched his only son nurse his wound. “My tooth is gone grandpa, allow…” “That's enough!” He said as he slammed his fist on the table, deadening the room with silence. The room was so quiet that one's breath could be heard clearly. He rose to his feet, his face wearing a

    Chapter 7(The phone call)
    Ruth's eyes were occluded with tears by the time they were out of the family mansion. “Am sorry Red, I can't believe my family will treat you this way.” She cried out, bracing herself on his arm. “You're not to be blamed, dear. You better stop crying lest I join you.” Redmond pleaded, rubbing his palm soothingly on hers. Redmond's playful threat was enough to ease her emotional laden state as she gradually stopped. She wiped the tears off her face before starting again, “But…getting a deal from the Zinont is like having a life sentence. It is just literally impossible for you.” She commented, uncertainty and worries etched in her voice and eyes. “That doesn't mean I shouldn't try, besides you said it yourself, it is literally impossible but not impossible. Hopefully…” “I will go myself.” Ruth's eyes lit up immediately like she had seen some way out from their problem. “I still bear the Teleimans name and have a quite reasonable knowledge about architecture and sealing a deal.

    It is no longer news that the Teleimans harbor a cursed girl who they desperately want to discard.
