Darren was staring at Anita, seeing the shock on her face made him recall how Zara offered him the same deal, two years ago. He has no intention of getting so much attached to Anita but who knows, that may save her life. If Zara had met him earlier and offered him the deal earlier, he may still have his mother Right beside him, hale and healthy.Anita was perplexed, she just met a stranger and he is willing to get married to her for her health's sake. Is that how people got married?"Excuse me mister, but have we met before? Coz I'm trying to recall where I've seen your face but my brain isn't working as expected." She finally found her voice and asked the question."Do we need to meet before I can help you? There is no problem if you don't want my help. Take care and be safe" Darren responded and wanted to make his way out of Anita's ward when Anita's voice stopped him."What do you want in return?" She questioned, still shocked by the whole Palava. Her boyfriend of three years just s
Darren woke up, packing a few of his clothes inside an old sack bag. He stared at himself for the last time in the mirror and was satisfied with his looks."Are you sure you wanna do this? The house we are talking about is wretched and can collapse at any time" Easton questioned for the tenth time."I've made up my mind, Easton. I'll be getting married to Anita and start living with her. Hopefully, she will get her surgery done by next week" Darren retorted and smiled in satisfaction.Easton picked up the bag and led the way out of the hotel. Anita had earlier sent the address of her house to Darren, who was glad to avenge all that had happened in the past. The driving took almost one hour to the location, where Easton parked and pointed at Anita's house to him. Darren confidentially stepped down from the car and left for his new house.To his surprise, he met Dave outside Anita's house, mocking her in his usual mockery tone."I only came to pick up the remains of my belongings. You c
Dave moved closer to them annoyingly. He helped Clara to get back on her feet but obviously, he was vexed."You are too careless and let this guy sweet talk get to you! Why will you fall amidst his drama?" He ranted."I mistakenly slipped, don't talk to me like I choose to embarrass you intentionally!" She fired back at him.Darren and Anita were watching the drama as if they were in a cinema house."And you? Where did you borrow all these dresses? I'm sure you can't afford them! Tell me right now!" Dave yelled, making his vein come out of his forehead. He was embarrassed but rather chose not to make it apparent that he had lost."Borrow? Do you think he has money to borrow these? Come to think of it, he may have stolen it from a wedding shop. I'll make sure to call the cops to investigate" Clara added, trying to look for her phone to call the cops."Darren, we don't need to drag the issue with them. They are both losers but wouldn't wanna admit it. Let's go inside for our marriage vow
Dave didn't stop beseeching for forgiveness till Easton drove into the farm premises, where hundreds of people are working at the different categories of the farm. The initial receptionist was working in the poultry area. Darren's father's farm was known to be the number one egg supplier in the country."Sir, which side should I drive to?" Easton asked Darren since the farm is very huge."The piggery" he retorted.Easton did as told and headed towards the piggery side. Both ambled down from the car and the farm manager surged to welcome them immediately after they were sighted."Welcome young Master, I've heard so much about you from the chairman and it's a privilege to see you here today. We have been anticipating the day you will pay us a visit and luckily, you are finally here" he bowed a bit, greeting Darren."It's nice to meet you. Hope the receptionist is doing well?" He further questioned."Yes, young master. Though she had trouble coping well on her first day and wouldn't stop
Darren rushed Anita to the emergency section of the hospital. He was panting heavily coz he had to carry her, running from the entrance where Easton parked the car to the emergency section."Who could have stabbed my wife?" He questioned no one in particular."Assuming I haven't locked Dave in the farm, I would have suggested it was him. It can't be my father because he is not cruel to that extent. Could it be Clara? I'll make sure to roast her skin alive. She happens to be the culprit" he told no one in particular.Easton was watching him, not knowing what he should utter to console his young master.Two doctors and three nurses rushed to the emergency room where Anita was taken to, to attend to her.After Twenty minutes, the first doctor came out."Who is Miss Anita Robert's guardian?" He asked, facing Darren and Easton."I'm the one" Darren voiced out."We needed to wheel her to the operating theater urgently for us to remove the knife that got stuck in her body. Initially, her kid
Darren was strolling to and fro in front of the operating room. It has been seven hours and none of the medical practitioners that entered the operating room had come out. Though he was informed how complicated his wife's surgery is, yet, it was becoming too long.Easton was beside him, trying to be there for his young master. He walked closer to him and whispered to his ears."Sir, should I get you something to eat? I noticed you have not eaten anything since last night" Darren stared at him before nodding his head negatively."I'm fine. I just hope that surgery will go well so that I won't be tagged as a bad luck that loses his mother and wife to kidney transplantation" he replied. Two hours later, the door opened slightly, revealing the chief medical doctor. Darren, who had been dozing off quickly, stood up and asked for Anita's health status."Young master" the chief medical doctor greeted, bowing a bit to respect. Darren cut him off immediately."You don't need to do that. You
"Y-you-young master? What have I done? Maya, you have finally let your pride ruin you" she murmured to herself, regretting her action."I'm the sorry young master, I wasn't aware of your identity. Kindly forgive my ignorance" She quickly went on her knees, begging for forgiveness.Easton was stunned and at the same time reckoned that the lady must have done something terrible for her to apologize in that manner.Darren only scoffed and whirled his head away from the lady after gaping at her to his satisfaction. From his analysis, she was only trying to fake the regret and someone like her can be so manipulative. He even heard that he wasn't the first person to be treated that way but unfortunately, he will be the last person to get treated like that from the so-called Maya."Young master, you ain't saying anything?" She voiced out after she noticed that Darren isn't ready to talk to her any time soon. Unknowingly, Darren was thinking about the right punishment that suit her better."D
Easton and Darren kept glaring at each other. Darren offered a toast with their glasses of wine which the other two men accepted.They all gulp down the content, making Austin so drunk. "Can you tell me more about Anita, I don't hesitate to pay you more than you can ever imagine" Darren said, faking a drunkard tone."Jeez! Don't tell me you also have an interest in that idiot! She isn't gonna accept your proposal! I've met numerous people that claimed she is pretty and would make a good wife, they are even rich but she rejected each and everyone of them. One even paid me handsomely and I promised to convince my sister to marry him but you wouldn't believe that bitch, turned him down and now, I need to pay back all the money! She chooses a dirty and poor man, who has no future over the business tycoons. I don't know why my mother didn't abort her pregnancy and choose to give birth to someone that will bring nothing but shame to me! But I don't blame her, she resembles her good for n
