It was as though the weather was in sync with their moods on the burial day.The early hours of the morning had begun with a heavy downpour, and as he stood and observed from his mansion, Declan thought it may not be possible for the burial to hold any longer.He had only invited family, friends, and close business associates that his father had worked with over the years.He wanted to invite Daniel, but he was rational about his decision-making and would not do so.Throughout the period he was in the city, he always went to the bar, just to see Daniel and know how he was coping with the loss of his friend.He did not know that
"Your wife is pregnant," Doctor Pat announced to Declan. He was stunned for a moment, too surprised to speak.He knew Samantha was on the pills, and her endometriosis reduced her chances of conceiving.There he was, caught up in the middle of an array of emotions that could be described as mixed feelings. It made him too excited to speak."Are you serious, doctor?" He asked, finally finding his voice. "As a heart attack," Doctor Pat replied with a smile, and they both burst out laughing."We've lost hope on this because of the endometriosis, coupled with the fact that she was on the pill," Declan went on in a teary voice."I guess life had other plans
Abigail took out her shades as soon as she got out of the vehicle and put them on immediately.This was the first time she had visited Frank since he was put behind bars for murder.Although he had not yet been sentenced, she did not know how she would react if he was given a jail term for life.As she walked in, memories of her good old days with Frank flooded her mind.They had met in college, and although she was neck-deep in love with Ferdinand, she had decided to let her guard down and open up to somebody else.She was selecting some books for her next project in the library, and she remembered seeing a title she wanted, but she could
Daniel stepped into the office with a smirk on his face, as usual. He had neither seen nor heard from Patricia for the past three months.She was no longer taking his calls, and whenever he used a private number, she would end the call as soon as she heard his voice.Using a voice modulator did not help. He always had a way of finding out that he was at the other end of the line.He could not trace her location, as the location, despite how hard he tried to trace it, always returned without a signal.He knew she was receiving help from Declan, and he was intent on finding out where they were, so he could take out his revenge on them, just the same way he had done to Ferdinand some weeks ago.
Abigail was still in tears as she moved out of the prison premises. She had been too shocked to say a single more word to Frank after the shocking revelation.As she got into the car, in the safety of her own space, she let out a scream.Ferdinand's death slipped into her memory, and she knew how much she had loved the man.He had made promises to her and her children, and although it was a difficult circumstance, he was like Frank and his unfulfilled promises.It made her angry, and she promised to make Daniel pay.He had bitten off more than he could chew, and she promised that they would find something against him soon.
Declan was finally relieved when he got the mail that they were ready to launch the automobile firm.Just a few years ago, this same dream had gone up in flames, but here he was, getting ready to launch again after refusing to give up on a passion that had brewed in him for many years.There had been a lot of work and the last few weeks after the burial had been hectic for him and Samantha.She had insisted that she wanted to still help him work on it despite her pregnancy.She had been efficient and had even opted to join the others for supervision on two occasions.He would look at her in admiration. She was a strong woman and she never
"Are you sure of what you are saying?" Antonio asked her. Isabella nodded. "I'll have to confirm," he said, and she moved close to him and showed him the documents with Ferdinand's signature. Antonio stared at it for a while. Ferdinand could be an enigmatic man sometimes, but he did not see this one coming. Isabella was telling the truth. He had given her part of the testimony, but he did not know about her."So what about me?" Daniel said it impatiently, his heart getting ready to burst open. "I'll probably get something better," he said ignorantly. "I guess I won his heart before he died," he continued. "I'm just so glad that you never got the chance to see me cry the way I did before him," he added.Declan just looked at him and nodded. This was not new to him. Daniel had always been so pathetic. Isabella began to read on Antonio's signal.My final testament as regards my son, Daniel.First, I want to appreciate your expertise and the extent of knowledge that you have put int
Daniel stood transfixed as he stared at Patricia. He had not seen her in a long time, and she looked stunning, different from the woman that he had known.If for anything, he had to commend Declan for doing a good job.He walked up to her, and he noticed how much she fidgeted. She was still very much afraid of him, and for some reason, it made him elated.That was how narcissistic he was and he knew it."Where have you been?" He started. "I've searched everywhere for you?" He added.Patricia looked him over for the first time. "Why do you care?" She asked him. "So you could kill me and hide my body?" She barked at him, and a few heads turn
