Justin sat down in frustration. Lilly widened her eyes in shock while Lucas became furious instantly, but all their gazes were fixed on Justin, who was sitting helplessly on the couch. He thought he had escaped the torment of the past, but Lucifer came back opening a healed wound. He didn't do it in private, he washed his dirty linen in front of his daughter, who was still mourning her lovely mother.His secrets of being a dark lord had also been exposed to his son-in-law. He knew Lucas possessed magic the first day he was brought home by his daughter, but he wanted to support him because he was the chosen one. Justin was not born a sorcerer, but Lucas's spiritual gifts and powers were natural. They were inbuilt, so he hid his dark magic. He wasn't proud of his initiation, so he was ashamed to show it before Lucas, except that he protected his house with it.Justin was helpless, he knew he betrayed his wife and daughter's trust, but he was also confused. He dragged his head up and dem
Lilly smiled as she watched her father's outburst. Justin was furious at his daughter's ridiculous wish and he disagreed vehemently. When he was done with his tantrums, he found Lilly looking at him with keen interest. “ Why is your expression like that? Why are you laughing at my condition?” Justin asked, surprised with his daughter's reaction.“ Inviting Joy and her mother here can be possible, and it will definitely be possible. I have never known you as a coward, Dad, so you have to own up to your responsibility.” Lilly said, her joyous face turned to a distasteful look towards her father.“ How did you expect me to accept a child from a prostitute? She took advantage of me!” He shouted.“ No dad, you were aware of what you did. Either you were under the influence of alcohol or not, you enjoyed it, so you have to be responsible for your actions. Joy might be a result of a one-night stand, but she is still your flesh and blood. She came from your loin, so I will never allow you to
Everybody present in the court watched the video with uninterrupted attention. Frederick smirk turned to fear, he never expected the lawyer to present the footage of his interactions with Miss Fisher to the court. He suddenly lost the courage he had earlier and he turned his gaze towards his mother. Hannah placed her hand on her chest to console him, the act was to pacify him to calm down.The judge ordered the clerk to remove the disk, then labeled it as evidence number 1.“ Barrister Tyler, please continue with your question” he said.“ Although there were a lot of witnesses on how Frederick disrupted the peaceful wedding between Lucas Wilson and Lilly Rowland, and how the drama of the murder unfolds, I still present to you the evidence that backs up our claims. Let's watch the contents of the disk, please.”, The lawyer gave another disk to the clerk.The video showed how Frederick removed his mask and how he threatened the couple, before Lilliana was killed. Hannah shouted from her
“ What kind of business do you have with Hannah? She might look miserable right now, but she is very cunning and wicked. Please be careful when dealing with her.” Lilly Advised Lucas as they were returning home.“ I know, love. I have made my findings about her and I know what she is capable of doing. Don't worry about her, I know how to deal with someone like that” Lucas replied.“ Can you please stay away from her path? When did you even start having issues with her?” Lilly asked, confused. She knew Lucas could not easily meet Hannah, because she was always traveling. How Lucas met her was surprising to her.“ I met her in the hospital you were admitted to when you were kidnapped. She smiled wickedly at me when your father was boiling in anger when Frederick escaped. I knew she had a hand in the escape, so I challenged her. I told her to laugh while it lasted, because she would surely cry over her son. That was our first encounter.” Lucas answered.Lilly opened her mouth in shock, “
Clara held her tummy and waist as the pain increased. Bobby rushed to her side and she used him as a support. Lucas wanted to attack Hannah but the security guards of the cemetery led her out. There was a smirk that showed on her face, but she wasn't totally happy either.“ This is impossible! How could she go into Labor when it's not yet seven months. Can this be forced labor? Bobby asked, scared.Clara's pregnancy hadn't reached seven months, so Bobby, including the other people that were aware of when she conceived, was confused.All of a sudden, Lilly shouted and shifted people's attention to Clara's skin color. Clara had turned paler and her skin color changed to blue. Clara checked herself and she lost it, she fainted immediately she noticed the change on her skin.Lilliana's body was quickly laid to the ground and covered with a heap of sand. Justin instructed the people he hired to cement the place, then made a tomb in honor of his wife.“ Let's rush her to the hospital, pleas
“ What did that statement mean, Dad?” Alex and Lilly asked simultaneously.“Lucas might be fortified against any form of poison, but a healer mustn't use his mouth to suck out any poison from his patient’s body. How did you not know this, Dave?” Zach asked “ I'm sorry I couldn't think straight. The pressure on me to find a solution was much, so I couldn't think of any other way. Please forgive me!” Dave apologized.“ Forgive you! You think you deserve forgiveness after leading my son to his death? He is your nephew, you are supposed to discourage him from doing anything unreasonable.” Zach flared in anger.“ Death? My husband will not die. Stop scaring me, Dad, please think of a way out” Lilly said.“ We cannot get any solution until we see the woman behind this attack. She isn't a sorcerer but she had dined with the devil. She went extra miles to get this poison, just to get an irreversible revenge on Lucas. Hannah got the magic to poison Lucas in the first place, not Clara. She had
Everywhere in the compound looked dirty and unkempt. The maids, gardeners and gateman had all resigned when Austin left the house for Hannah. The workers in the house were still enduring because of Austin's good character, but they left immediately they knew Hannah would take over the ownership of the house.Hannah had no workers nor friends, so she was left alone to wallow in her sorrows. A pack of cigarettes was placed on the table with plenty of bottles of alcoholic drinks. Hannah sat on the bare floor in her living room smoking a cigarette with one hand and supplementing it by taking alcohol with the other hand.“ You have turned your living room into a bar and you have turned yourself into a drug addict because your husband left you, don't you have a life of your own?” Zach said as they entered Hannah's living room unannounced.Hannah turned her head to look at the intruder that had the temerity to preach to her in her house. Her eyes were bloodshot because of the smoke, her hair
“ I'm sorry to say Dad, but you are not thinking straight. How could you think of sacrificing yourself?” Alex said furiously“ What else do you want me to do? Should I fold my hands and let my son die? We have just an hour left, someone should bring a knife and bowl this minute!” Zach shouted in anger Alex broke down in tears as he could not think of another way to stop his father. Fate had played a major twisting role in his life. How would he meet his father and have to lose him a few months after? He was distraught and helpless.As Zach moved closer to Lucas' body, Dave's hysterical voice made him halt his step.“ You were tricked by Hannah, nobody is sacrificing his life for Lucas. That evil woman tricked you” Dave shouted.Zach turned around in a confused state, “ Hannah and Lucas's life were connected together, if one dies, the other follows. What nonsense are you saying? Lucas has less than an hour to live, please don't distract me on the mission to save my son” He hissed and
