"Who is she?" Helen asked. She came with Zade to see her daughter, but Elaine wasn't the only one running into her arms. Zade didn't want her to push the child away so he waited for her to return the hug first."Mommy, this is Manie, my sister," Elaine introduced giddily. Helen glanced at Zade with questioning eyes. "Your sister?" "Yes, her name is Manie," Elaine went on to introduce. Helen's expression shifted. "She is going to be my sister. Uncle Teddy said we could share our toys.""Is that so?" Helen's cold gaze pinned Zade to the spot. "Did he also add you will be sharing your daddy?"Elaine giggled, grabbing Manie's hand. "We share your daddy.""And your mommy," Manie chattered. "And Mr Wiggles.""Nooo..." Elaine protested but the girl was already running off. Helen stared at the running children then her head snapped to Zade. "I understand what you're thinking but don't forget they're just kids. They don't have to be involved in this messed up adult life. Settle your score
"Helen," Tyrone blinked in shock. True he had fantasized all day about taking off her oxygen mask so she would die and probably ease the pain in his heart, but he never expected she would just show up at his doorstep.Granted, it was her house as well but wasn't she supposed to be in a coma? How did she just get up and run home? "You're awake," he mumbled."As you can see," the cold response startled him but the dead look in her eyes rattled him up to the point that he had to pinch himself to make sure he was hallucinating or daydreaming. She peeled his hand off the door and walked in. It was then he remembered that he wasn't alone. Olivia was on the couch, furious at him and Helen's presence would escalate things.He shut the door quickly and hurried to the living room."Who are you?" He heard Olivia ask. "She's no one, Liv. You, go to your room now," he ordered Helen. The woman didn't even spare him a glance. "I'm Helen, his wife. Who are you?" She asked and Olivia's eyes widene
As soon as Olivia drove out of the mansion, she was cornered by Zade. She stopped the car with annoyance and stepped out of the car. She wiped the tears threatening to block her vision and matched towards him. “What is your problem?”“You shouldn’t take out your frustration on me. You should have known from the beginning that Tyrone was a flood. He’s usually not as sleek as he believes he is so I wondered how you managed to miss the signs, except of course, you ignored it,” Zade stated. “Are you taunting me right now?” Olivia huffed.“Taunting you? You have been making a joke out of yourself. I can’t even say that he deceived you. You knew what was happening but you chose to turn a blind eye to it. There is no need to be angry at everyone,” he said softly. “Are you going to give me back my daughter or not? Your Helen is awake and she is back in her husband’s house or whatever she called it. There is no need to keep Manie anymore,” she stated. “Hmm… you’re right,” he mused, “There
Adera stared at the doorbell, reluctant to ring it. She was here to see Zade since the man had completely cut her off after their last argument. She couldn't really call it an argument since all she did was hurt him and break up. In her defense, she was hurt too. He was in bed with another woman!Maybe she should have given him time to explain, but she couldn't think straight at that time. All she wanted to do was make him feel the same pain she felt. Now she wasn't sure if that had been a good decision or not.She finally mustered the courage to ring the doorbell and Elizabeth answered. "Hey," Ader smiled immediately, but Elizabeth didn't return her smile."What are you doing here? Did you leave any property of yours behind?" Elizabeth asked."Come on. Liz, we're friends. What's with the sudden coldness?" Adera asked lightly. Elizabeth's gaze remained hostile, " You haven't answered my question."Adera cleared her throat, uneasily with the unfriendliness, "I came to see, Zade. I th
Olivia staggered away from Tyrone's bleeding form at the sound of the gun. She looked back to see Helen leaning against the wall with a stoic expression."I.. I wasn't..." Olivia came to her senses. Tyrone's groan startled her. Olivia stared at him, her eyes, accessing the damage.His face was going to have a lot of scars later but he would likely live. Helen moved from the wall, the gun dangling in her hands as she approached them. "I wasn't going to kill him...""I didn't ask for an explanation. Whether your intention was to kill him or not, he must live. The Delamontes will have your head if he doesn't. Do whatever you want to him but don't take his life," Helen interrupted. Olivia's jaw dropped. She expected Helen would at least try to defend her husband but here she was, giving her the go ahead to do whatever she wanted. Except kill him."You're not going to stop me?" Olivia asked. Helen halted, "why would I do that?""Because he is your husband?" her response came out like a
As soon as Zade dropped the call, he made eye contact with Elizabeth. "We have to tell grandfather. She's loosing her mind!" She exclaimed. "We can't do that! I just promised to keep my mouth shut!" Zade argued."Well I could hear her as well and I didn't promise to keep mine shut," she pointed. "Liz, please...""She's trying to kill my brother!" "Your brother has been trying to kill her for years and you know that. She suddenly wants to retaliate doesn't make her the bad person!" Zade stated. "Maybe not! But she's not going to use my brother as a lab rat for her inner villian. I am calling my Dad right now," she took out her phone but Zade snatched it from her. "What is wrong with you? Can you calm the fuck down and let us figure this out? We were the ones pushing her to leave, scolding her for letting him walk over her and now she finally wants to do something, you want to stop her? How many times have you stopped Ty?"Elizabeth gaped at him."You're supporting murder! She's
Olivia was on the floor beside Tyrone's sprawled body. He was slipping in and out of consciousness, but that was the last thing on her mind. The pain in her chest arising from his betrayal was growing deeper and deeper by the second. She let herself get fooled by another man! Just how stupid could she be? The signs were there, just like in Vincent, her ex-husband. But what did she do? She ignored it until the truth was glaring her in the face. Their relationship had been a total waste. When she glanced at his unconscious form, the temptation to smash his face to pieces gripped her again.Just when she was about to give in to it, her phone rang. She dropped the stool and fished for the phone in her pockets."Hello?" "Pick up your daughter at Sun Bites. I won't take responsibility if she gets kidnapped again," the strange voice told her before hanging up. Olivia got off the ground. She didn't even know where Sun bites was. She thought of hurrying up the stairs to ask Helen but she
Helen returns downstairs with a bottle of dry gin in hand. As she advanced towards Tyrone, she took the cap off. The man was still unconscious, but that didn't stop her from emptying the alcohol on him. The pain forced him back into consciousness An emotionless smile played on her lips as he winced."Ssshhh! You're going to disturb the guards. We can't have you bleeding to death can we?" she whispered. He continued wincing, ignoring her words. "Are you doing this in the hope that they would hear you? I was actually trying to preserve your strength but you can go ahead and scream. Let's see if they'd hear you. Go on," she urged. She walked away from him to look for something to help her lift him. "Of all the times not to have a wheelchair. If I can't move you, we'll just have to do our business here," she told him. She got a groan in response. Helen returned to him and dragged him to the center by his leg. "Tell me, Ty, what should we try today?" she asked, clearing the pieces o
