The Unassuming Mason Wilde Chapter 131
Vivian had had time to think, to reminisce on her actions, she had been in a holding cell for days, and had had time to reflect on her terrible and selfish actions. How could she have forgotten how she loved her little girl, she thought back to when Scarlett was a lovely little girl, and to her, Scarlett had always been very special and close to her heart.Although Vivian was not totally on board with having children so soon, all her misgivings vanished when Scarlett was born and she looked into those enormous green orbs for the first time.Growing up, Scarlett was stunningly beautiful, so beautiful that she could not simply take her daughter to the park without people stopping to stoop down and compliment on her little girl.But through it all, she had remained lovely and meek, beautifully gliding her way through life, and Vivian was content just sitting in the sidelines and watching her daughter manipulate the spotlight to her heart's content.She was going to be a star! People swo

Scarlett had been following her mother's progress, and was very much aware that her final hearing was the next day.A strong part of her wanted to go in and bail her mother out, show her that she was not alone, she had seen her mother on TV looking old and worn out, and every single of her broke Scarlett's heart every single time.She knew her cousin had visited her mother and she was itching to go there and also some of their family behind their back, and she was itching to know what exactly was going on, but disinclined to associate herself more with Vivian Rodney.~Mason was so done with the gossip at work, he had thought that they would die with time, but they just kept increasing in weight, it was frantically becoming threatening.And Rita was always quick to remind him that the intensity of the gossip might push the board to make a decision that would not be favorable to him, so he sat with his people and discussed the best course of action to take.“I say you find them.” Mark

The ladies were near hysterical at this point, and Rita might have laughed if she was not so serious at that moment. They fidgeted and twitched on their feet, with their fingers grasping and holding on to each other for dear life.To an extent, Rita could understand their sentiment, after all they had been caught by the vice chairman, it was a pretty tight place to be in, and she made sure to utilize all of it.“W_we are really s_sorry.” One of the ladies said, her head bent as her eyes reddened and began to glisten with tears. Rita simply raised her brows at this.“Stop that water leakage this instant!” She commanded, and immediately they sobered up, back straightened like soldiers about to go to war. Much better.

On the day of Vivian's final hearing, she was surprisingly calm, she never would have thought that with her feet halfway to prison she could ever be filled with such serenity and peace.Personally, she knew it was simply because of the decision she had made, now she felt less of a monster and more of a mother, it was the best thing she had felt in a while.Deep down she could only pray that her daughter's would be there, as she had left a lot unsaid, and she was only now aware of how limited her time was.“Inmate 103!” The warden shouted, and Vivian stood up from where she had been sitting in her holding cell with difficulty. It was perhaps because of the rapid change in lifestyle, but all she had been feeling was cramps, everywhere.<

Mich could not contain the anger in her heart, she could not understand any of what had just transpired, and she was once again reminded that no matter what she did, she would always be the second choice.She had done everything to secure the lawyer for her mother's case, even went to the Wilson's and begged like a freaking charity case, she ignored Emerald smirk and Ric’s condescending grin all because she wanted for once to be of help, but were her efforts recognized? No, not at all.Her mother had conveniently forgotten who stood by her it seemed, forgotten that then the entirety of the Rodneys looked at her and turned their backs that Michelle was there.But her mother's goodbyes were not even for her sake, choosing to give up with the pathetic excuse of paying for her sins was nothing more than a pathetic excuse to get to Scarlett.And judging by the pathetic emotional display it had worked, and once more, Michelle was left standing at the sidelines without even the opportunity t

Jason was pacing as his mother relaid everything she had said and seen from his grandmother's office. He could not understand it, he had thought that with his aunt Vivian out of the picture, then Scarlett would be destabilized long enough for him to do something worthwhile, but no, she has already bounced back enough to make sneaky deals?He was sick of it all, every one he knew had taken the side of the wench far too often, it was one of the reasons why he distrusted his new partnership with Rich Wilson, he knew that even if he tried to deny it, the bastard had a soft spot for his cousin.Once again that feeling of being cornered and backed up the wall threatened to choke Jason, he knew that if Scarlett decided to take this battle seriously, then it was going to be problematic for him indeed.“So you're telling me that Grandma is playing so type of game?!” Jason thundered, he was also sick of that old woman acting like everyone was nothing more than chess pieces for her to move acco

Rita stared at the trembling figure of Mr Barnum Miller in amusement, he was trembling before her, trembling so bad that she actually began to feel sorry for the man. She wondered what was going through his little mind as he stood before her twisting the cap clutched between his fingers, deciding to put him out of his misery soon enough, she stood up slowly, gesturing for him to seat, but he shook his head rapidly, eyes pleading, as if begging her not to make him do it, and Rita almost burst into laughter at this peculiar sight.“Mr Barnum Miller, yes?” She inquired, and he nodded jerkingly, full on fidgeting in his seat now, and if Rita were any kinder perhaps even she would be moved to pity.“You are fully aware that you are here to work, am I right?” She asked the poor man, and he nodded immediately, shoulders puffing up as if to assure her that he had it covered.“Yes ma'am, I do my best Madam.” He said eagerly, thinking that perhaps he had been too busy filling his head with neg

Michelle was not exactly pleased to open the door and see her sister loitering on her doorstep, actually she was far from pleased as she gazed at Scarlett with a severe expression and no hint of the sweet girl Scarlett used to know in sight.“Hello sister. Not gonna invite me in?” Scarlett greeted from where she stood, and she could see the contemplation on her sister's face, shocking her to the core, that she would even hesitate.“Fine.” She muttered before walking into the house, not even looking back to see if Scarlett was following her, but she did anyway, she needed to fix things.“So, I saw Aunt Elicia on my way here? Was she here to see you? What did she want?” Scarlett asked, and Michelle could only scoff angrily.“Why? Are you the only one worthy of visits from our esteemed family members?” She asked sarcastically, and Scarlett sighed, she had not meant it that way.“What's wrong with us Michelle?” She eventually asked, unable to bear the stiff silence any longer, and Michell

Waiting felt like eternity, but Mason was just simply grateful to have his friend there even if he had persuaded them to return home but was promptly ignored of course. He was still glad. Glad he did not have to go through something like this alone, it would have been a nightmare to be honest.Mason stared at the time, the surgery had been going on for about two hours now, but he refused to think negatively, he could not really afford it, so he sat still and told himself that they were only doing what needed to be done.He picked up the drink Young had bought finally, he needed to stay hydrated, so he threw it down his throat, grimacing in the process as it burned him while going down. And he sniffed, his throat dry, he did not like that so much time had passed by it was becoming worrisome.“Don't worry. It sometimes takes this long you know.” Young offered and Mason nodded at him with a grateful smile, his friends were everything. He had no idea how he would have survived the turmoil

Through the bright haze of pain Scarlett could hear the nurses gasp as something got stuck, she knew that the atmosphere had changed, she was a sensitive person, so from the start of the labor itself she was already harboring terrible fears, and it seemed they were going to come through after all.The nurses tried their best to reassure her, they were the best in the business they said, all she needed to do was relax, it would be alright soon, but how could she? How could she relax when she felt herself losing strength by the minute. It was a terrible feeling, the weakness started from her head, sounds strange? Well that was exactly how it started, it started from her head and spread down slowly, leaving behind a terrible trail.She opened her mouth slowly and looked at the nurse, pleading with her eyes for her to come closer.“Mason.” Scarlett whispered pathetically and the woman sighed and patted her hand before leaning down.“Mr Wilde is out talking with the doctor ma'am, they are

“Ahhhhhh!” Scarlett's cries echoed down the hall where Mason was asked to stay as he paced with his friends, they were all thinking the same thing, if she was not in freaking labor, then why was she screaming so much, the sound was already Making Mason agitated. He could not hear it, and the more he paced with his face scrunched up in worry, the more worried his friends became.“I think we should try a different hospital.” Mark finally voiced out from where he sat with his head in his hands, and Mason's eyes immediately snapped to him in concern.“Why? What do you think is wrong with this one?” He asked anxiously, and Young immediately spoke over Mark, glaring at him to keep shut as he spoke.“Absolutely nothing Mason, do not listen to Mark, listen to good things only.” He cautioned, and Mark frowned but said nothing.Immediately he heard this, Mason's worst fear was confirmed and he stood to rush into the room Scarlett was in taking deep breaths with the nurse, her hair already matte

Scarlett had been trained for such a situation, the water may most likely break in the middle of the night, they said, it happens to a lot of women, so fear not, they had advised, keep a calm head despite the heat of the moment and think rational thoughts, they had counseled.But Scarlett was in the heat of the moment, and ration was the least thing in her mind, not when she felt so anxious. The fact that the babies were not kicking her the night prior, and the fact that Mason was at ease with the company around him encouraged her to dismiss the nurses from hovering around her all night, she insisted she was alright, and with Mason being too distracted to pay attention, there was little they could do.But now she wished she could take it all back, the pain was back and back with a vengeance, with a crippling force that she could only gasp and hold her stomach. She was even afraid to move as the ground was slippery beneath her after her water broke. Scarlett was totally unprepared for

Scarlett woke up from her nap, and was pleasantly surprised to hear Mason laughing downstairs. He never seemed to laugh anymore, and just followed her anxiously with his eyes, his legs practically vibrating with the force of stopping them from jumping up and helping her.But now she heard him laughing, something so carefree in his laughter that it brought a smile to her lips as she got to her feet with the help of the nurse that was previously knitting a hat in a corner of the room.She had only agreed to let her stay in the bedroom because she found it extremely difficult to pick herself up from the bed after laying on it, she was like a proper whale now.“You know Mason, worrying till he could not anymore had always been his motto.” Mark laughed, and they all echoed it, each recounting a time when Mason almost killed himself with worry for no reason, and Mason sipped at the drink with a laugh, feeling thoroughly chagrined.*My God!” Young said softly and in awe as he stared at a th

Mason watched Scarlett gradually increase in size, and he had no idea what to feel, but one was sure though, the sight was dreadfully daunting. She was slim and fit one moment, and the next she was dragging her belly that had grown so big along that Mason was genuinely terrified that she might topple over one day, it was becoming a most genuine concern at that point.He was always hovering around and above her like a shadow, and knew that she was not pleased with it, but to Mason ever since she turned into an inflated balloon, she lost the right to decide what was best for her.The stay at home nurses he employed for her sake were paid to hover around her when he could not, and at that point Scarlett was venturing into crazy land.Mason knew that she was frustrated with his behavior, but he could not help it. She looked so tiny compared to her huge stomach that he felt the need to do something, anything, as this was partially his fault.He knew she said Children were blessings and tha

The two bewildered couple stared at the doctor in bewilderment for a solid thirty seconds. They did not understand a thing he had just said, and he only seemed to be smiling, Scarlett leaned closer to Mason.The doctor could see that they were having difficulties with coming to terms with the news, it was always like that with new parents after all, they were almost always shocked before the excitement kicked in.*You are having twins.” He said again, just to make sure he was clear, and the couple stiffened up as Scarlett slowly, very slowly looked up at her husband.“He said twins, Mason.” She whispered, and Mason turned to look down at her with a dazed nod, before turning to the doctor.“Show us.” He said, almost as if he did not quite believe it, and the good doctor nodded before resuming his roaming on Scarlett's stomach.“This is, should we say baby one?” He asked with a smile, and Mason nodded with watery eyes, at this point he was literally shaking, so much that Scarlett had to

Scarlett was quite happy with how well everything had turned out, the peacefulness of it was a bonus point as well. She was dreading the thought of a war as that had been what she had been experiencing for quite sometime now.So when she watched the gentlemen and their raucous ladies board the jets once again to take them back to their various continents she could help but ease up a sigh of relief.She looked at Mason with appreciation, and could see the relief in his eyes as well, he was as relieved as she was and perhaps even more so, ever since he found out that she was pregnant, all he had seem able to do was worry and fret, and as endearing as it was, Scarlet was getting quite worried about his mental health.Her hands drifted to her almost still flat belly and felt the little bulge that had pushed itself up a few days ago. She could not help but caress it now as it felt like she was shielding her baby from the world.She doubted even her husband had noticed the baby bump, should

Mason watched them carefully so as to be able to spot any looks of concern or shock or just anything that told him that they were unaware of this unfortunate news, Mason scoffed.*You do not seem surprised.” He said to them and Jonathan shrugged as he looked at him with a gaze straight from hell in all its mischief and grizt.“Listen, pretending to be surprised would be a lie and a cowardly action.” Rhode said with a straight forward and Mason venomously, even he was surprised by the depths of his anger, it felt unquenchable.“Your parents killed mine.” Mason said, no more point in hiding it, he came right out with it and said it, they both nodded.“They caused the car crash that happened, it was organized by them, and done so that no one would be able to escape.” Rhode said and Mason flinched back.“I cannot just let you both leave.” Mason said desperately, he didn't want to harm them, but at the same time was terrified of allowing them to walk away.“We were supposed to kill you as
