“Camila, calm down. Don't panic,” Keith said, trying all possible to calm her down along with Mrs Genevieve.We aren't sure he was the one. We didn't see his face,” Smart said as they tried calming her down but she wasn't having any of it.“What if he was the one? This is all my fault. I shouldn't have involved him in all this,” she said, blaming herself.“You need to think about your child, Camila,” Mrs Genevieve said, trying to hold her but she was wiggling out of their hold. Duncan left, coming back with Matthew who sedated her, making her sleep.“You guys need to make sure that she doesn't hear such news that would disturb her. She's in a very critical condition. We're trying to make it less critical so that you don't have to choose between the mother and the child,” Matthew said as Keith clenched his fists.“We'll make sure it doesn't come to that,” he growled as Matthew nodded.“You better do that,” he said, walking away. Duncan walked out, following Matthew while Keith looked a
“Good day Mr Corner but you'll have to come with us to the station,” the officer said as Abraham gave a light smile, nodding his head, turning to Adam.“Handle everything in my absence. I'll be back shortly,” Abraham said as he followed the officers. His workers wondered what was happening but they didn't dare show it as they did their work diligently.Sheila entered a restaurant as she saw Mrs Genevieve sitting patiently while waiting for her. She sighed, walking towards her. Mrs Genevieve had called her, telling her she wanted to meet.“I hope I didn't keep you waiting?” Sheila asked, sitting opposite Mrs Genevieve.“It's not like I have been here. I just got here,” Mrs Genevieve said as Sheila nodded.“I know this is not a friendly meeting. So I'll just go straight to the point and ask why we're meeting,” Sheila said as Mrs Genevieve leaned forward.“I just want you to simply leave my son alone. Stay away from Duncan,” Mrs Genevieve said as Sheila scoffed softly.“I'm not the one c
“What's going on?” The inspector asked, looking at the man. “What is his offense?”“This man admitted to kidnapping Miss Joffrey. He said he copied Mr Corner's voice just to extort money from Mr Thompson,” the officer said, asking the man to speak and the man clearly spoke like Abraham.“Well then we got our criminal,” the inspector said, turning to Keith. “It seems we accused Mr Corner wrongly. Don't you agree with me, Mr Thompson?” The inspector asked. Keith was about to say something when his phone rang.“Hello, Keith Thompson on the line,” he said as his face changed to one of fear and shock.“What's wrong Keith?” Duncan asked as Smart looked worried.“I'll be there shortly,” Keith said, dashing out. Duncan and Smart followed him. The inspector sighed, not knowing what to say, turned to Abraham.“I'm sorry for all this, Mr Corner. I hope you understand that we were just doing our job,” the inspector said as Abraham smiled.“It's okay. I totally understand,” Abraham said, walking o
“Keith, he's dead. It's my fault. It's all my fault,” Camila said, crying as Matthew instructed her to push but because she wasted all her strength in crying, she didn't have any strength to push.“It's not your fault. It's not your fault baby,” Keith was on the verge of tears but he didn't want Camila to see him. They were in a much difficult situation because it was getting hard for Camila to push while she was mourning Mark. Everything was too much and she began to lose consciousness.“You mustn't allow her to close her eyes, Keith or else we'll lose the baby,” Matthew said, panicking as Keith began to talk to Camila softly, hoping to keep her awake.Abraham returned home, entering his office. He planned on carrying out his next plan but he was waiting for a particular phone call. Sheila heard the sound of his car coming out from her room. She walked into his sturdy, sitting opposite him.“You're finally back,” she said smiling but Abraham wasn't even paying attention to her.“What
“You can see your baby but not now. When you're better, then you can see him,” Keith said as Camila narrowed her eyes.“Why can't I see my baby? Is there something wrong?” Camila asked as Keith nodded. There was no use hiding it from her. “What's wrong?” She asked, already scared of hearing what he was about to say.“You went into forced labor,” he paused, waiting for her reaction. “So you gave birth a month before your due death making our baby premature,” he added as Camila gasped.“Is our baby going to die?” Camila asked, tears already gathering round her eyes. Keith shook his head, holding her hands.“No love. He would be kept in the NICU till he is able to live without it. Matthew promised to make sure he pays special attention to our baby so we won't be too worried,” Keith said but Camila was already crying.“I'm a bad mother. I put my baby in danger. What kind of mother died that,” she cried so hard. Keith couldn't take it anymore so he walked out, crying in a corner. He cried
“Your baby is safe. There's no need to worry. I also heard the kidnappers were kidnapped,” he said as Sheila handed him a cup of coffee. “Thanks love,” he said, throwing her a wink which did not go well with Duncan. Keith and Camila looked at him then at Sheila.“Looks like my mother did her part well,” Smart said, obviously not wanting to be part of the drama that was brewing.“You can trust Matthew here. He will take care of your baby and I forgot to tell you that,” she raised her fingers up. “this is tisha's diner. Matthew just brought you through the secret passage since it would cause unnecessary attention. If you want to come here again, just walk through the door and meet any waitress or waiter of your choice and they'll bring you straight to this place,” Sheila said as Camila was amazed.“How did you do all this?” She asked as Sheila smiled “I'm smart after all,” she said, picking up her back.“Where are you going?” Duncan asked as she turned to him.“Home. I need to be home
“Okay, let me hear it,” Abraham said.“Stay away from Keith and Camila. Leave them alone. If you want to play, take it somewhere else. You shouldn't derive joy in trying to ruin someone else's life. Take time to reflect on yourself and make yourself feel better. If you try to mess with them, I'll make sure I'll do everything in my power to make you pay,” she said, then turned to her seat seeing Mr Kevin waiting for her.“Mrs Genevieve, what were you discussing with that man?” Mr Kevin asked as Mrs Genevieve turned to Abraham giving him a small smile. Abraham clenched his jaws, putting his both hands in his pocket as he left the restaurant.“You shouldn't worry. We were just having a friendly talk,” she said sitting down but Mr Kevin doubted it but he didn't question her as he sat down and they began to talk.Keith and Camila came back to the house feeling sad.“You want me to get something for you to drink?” Keith asked Camila while she was sitting down. She nodded as he got to the fr
“I need you to stop interfering with it. If you don't like my decision, just be happy for me. For once in your life, stop trying to rule my life and be happy for me and if Sheila really wanted to drive a wedge between us, she wouldn't stoop so low as doing something petty. You should know that by now,” Having said that, he walked out. “Mum…,” Smart started but Mrs Genevieve held her hand up silencing him.“Get out!” She said as he sighed.“You've all got to be kidding me,” and he left.Sheila finished telling her parents everything.“Oh boy, that's a lot to take in and it sure looks like it's going to take this guy's mother time to really accept you,” Mr Hockings said as Sheila nodded in agreement.“And don't ever feel like you're not adding anything to the group. You've done the best you can do for someone who is staying with the enemy in the same house,” Mrs Hockings said as Sheila smiled.“I felt nice talking to you both plus this dessert is sick,” she said as her mother smiled.
