“Ahh, that's the lady we were all waiting for,” Mr Loveday said as Sheila smiled, joining the men.“I heard you all were already leaving. I hope you all had a wonderful time?” Sheila asked as they laughed.“They most certainly did. Don't bother yourself about it,” Abraham said. Sheila noticed Duncan kept staring at her so she whispered to Abraham.“Why does that man you hate so much keep staring at me?” She asked as Abraham clenched his jaws.“Don't pay attention to him. Ignore him,” Abraham said as they watched everyone leave. Sheila left for her room. When she was on the last stairs, Abraham called her.“What are you going to do with the money you got?” He asked as she turned to him from up.“What has that got to do with you? It's my money, so I'll use it as I please. Don't bother asking about it. I hope you aren't sad that I won't be needing you to send me or my family money anymore?” Sheila asked as she smiled seeing the reaction she got from Abraham. “Don't worry. You can still s
Sheila woke up very late as she stretched on her bed. This was one of the best sleep she has had so far as she sat up, smiling looking outside the window. She got out of bed thinking about what she'll do today as she entered the bathroom doing her morning routine. She came out preparing to take a shower but deciding to use the tub. She called a maid to come up to her room while looking for what to wear today. She was really in a good mood. She was still looking for what to wear when a knock was heard on the door.“Yes, come in!” She shouted as the door opened and the maid came in.“You called ma'am?” She asked as Sheila nodded.“Yes, I did. I want you to run my bath for me. I want scented candles around with rose petals on the water with a bottle of champagne as soon as possible. So, hurry up and get it,” Sheila ordered as the maid nodded, leaving. Sheila went back to what she was doing. “What should I wear?” She asked herself seeing the amount of clothes she had while the maid did wh
Camila woke up with a splitting headache as she stayed on bed, wrapping herself with the blanket.“Here, take this,” Keith said, handing over some drugs for a hangover to her.“Thank you,” Camila said, taking it from it as she swallowed it, taking the cup of coffee he bought for her and sipping from it. “As usual, you know me best,” Camila said, smiling at Keith.“Mrs Hockings, no?” He asked as she stared at him then sipped her coffee.“Scold me later Keith. I'm having a bad headache and so I need your love and care now,” Camila whined as Keith shook his head looking at her.“Okay, stay still. I'll make something for you but I'm not letting this discussion pass by,” he told her, pointing a finger at her.“Okay, whatever,” she said, pouting as he left to prepare something for her to eat.Camila was still on her bed when Keith came in with breakfast on bed.“That's my man,” she exclaimed happily, smiling at him.“Whatever you're doing isn't working. We're going to have the conversation
Keith and Camila went out, meeting Mrs Genevieve at a restaurant.“What did you say happened to Camila?” Mrs Genevieve asked, looking at Camila with concern. Camila smiled, shaking her head softly.“It's okay Mrs Genevieve. I'm doing great,” Camila said with a smile.“If Keith isn't taking care of you properly then tell me. I'll pull you out and get you a man who can do the job without hassle,” Mrs Genevieve said, shocking Keith.“Mind what you say Mrs Genevieve. Ask her why she's not well and then, you'll see why you shouldn't blame me about anything,” Keith said huffing as Camila and Mrs Genevieve chuckled.“Okay Camila. Tell me what happened?” Mrs Genevieve asked.“Well, I drank. I think so,” Camila answered as Keith glared at her.“If she's not going to tell you, then I will,” Keith said, sitting up while Camila pinched him.“How can you throw me under the bus like this? You're supposed to hide your partner,” Camila said as Keith scoffed.“I don't see that happening,” Keith answer
“Yes, there isn't. Camila Joffrey, what's your deal with her? I thought you only wanted to sympathize with her because she lost her baby and it was supposed to end there? Why are you still in contact with her?” Mr Hockings asked as Mrs Hockings sighed.“Yes, I was supposed to stop talking to her but she rubbed off on me. She's a really good friend and she understands me well,” Mrs Hockings said.“Well, that's how it starts. She'll pretend that she understands you and then use you to get information about whatever Sheila is doing. They are not to be trusted,” Mr Hockings said.“I don't think Camila is like that. Just listen to me,” Mrs Hockings said as Mr Hockings shook his head.“I'm not in the mood to argue with you. You'll just have to stop associating yourself with her. This is not up for debate,” Mr Hockings said, walking away. Mrs Hockings didn't like what just happened. She sighed, glaring at the direction her husband left.“Isn't karma a bitch? Scared of what you did to others
Sheila finished discussing with the women, getting the information she needed from them then she stood up, going over to where Abraham was.“Having fun?” She asked. “This wasn't so bad, was it? So, does this mean you'll be coming here often?” She asked.“Don't push your luck,” Abraham said, not sparing her a glance.“Believe me, I'm not,” Sheila said, checking her watch. “So, do you feel like going home now?” She asked.“Nope. I think I'll stay here for a while,” Abraham said as Sheila nodded.“Okay. That's good for you. I'll be heading out. Have fun,” she told him as he turned to her.“Where are you going?” He asked as she checked her watch again.“Well, I'm taking my parents out. I got a reservation for them at hotel Casablanca. If you are bothered about how I am going to get there, then don't bother. Max is already here,” Max said as Abraham gave her a heated stare.“How did you contact your parents, book a reservation and also call Max over?” He asked her as she shrugged.“Simple.
“Reservations for the Hockings,” Sheila said to the doorman as he led them to their reserved table. “Thank you,” she said, sitting down. Her father opened her mum's seat for her to sit. This was one of the things she loved about her dad.“What are you looking at?” Her father scolded, sitting down. Sheila rolled her eyes smiling.“Are you still grumpy about coming out? No one would notice you here,” Sheila said.“I hope you're right,” he mumbled.“This place is so beautiful. I love it here Sheila,” Mrs Hockings said, looking around.“Not bad,” Mr Hockings said, folding his arms as Sheila chuckled.“Would it kill you to give a proper compliment dad?” She asked as he shrugged.“How did you find this place?” Mrs Hockings asked as Sheila smiled.“I can see you love this place, mum,” Sheila asked.“Of course, I do. I can't remember the last time I came to such a fanciful restaurant,” Mrs Hockings said as Mr Hockings placed his hands on his laps. He got shaken up by what his wife had just sa
“I love the feel of the water touching my legs,” Camila said, holding Keith's hand as they walked barefooted on the beach.“I know right. This surreal environment feels like home. It's peaceful, like how a home is meant to be,” Keith said, kicking the water with his legs. “After seeing how quiet and peaceful this place is, I don't wish to go back home,” he said, looking at Camila who looked back at him. “How about we run away and leave everything behind. Just the two of us. We'll start a new life, a new identity away from all these people. We'll make a new home with ourselves and maybe our little ones,” Keith said as Camila nodded.“I like the idea and I also like the sound of it. What about Mrs Genevieve?” Camila asked.“Eventually, she'll forgive us. Especially when she sees our kids. It would melt her heart,” Keith answered.“Okay, nice plan but are you really serious about running away?” Camila asked as Keith paused, looking into her eyes.“No,” he said immediately as they both la
