"Amanda, who gave birth to these beautiful kids? Don't tell me that they are both yours Mandy?" Alison asked her the question without giving her any breathing space.
"They are my children, Alison." answered Amanda as she held Andrew's hand heading towards the direction where the kids were being seated. "This is unbelievable to man's eyes. I can't believe that Amanda has two kids yet she refused to let Grandpa see them before he passed on. Who exactly is this girl?" Alison spoke to Patrick who stood beside her. "I can't believe that Andrew stoop so low to accept the friendship proposal with our sister." Patrick gave a response to what Alison said. Everyone gave a constant look to what was happening around them, not to mention Amelia and Stella who thought their plans to take over Amanda's property would come to pass. Andrew is the epitome of a dream man. He is tall, dark, and handsome, with chiselled features and a piercing blue gaze. His athletic build is toned and muscular, without being too bulky. He always dresses impeccably, in tailored suits and expensive clothes. But what really sets Andrew apart is his air of confidence and selfassurance. He knows he's goodlooking and successful, and he carries himself accordingly. Andrew was born into a wealthy family, and he has always enjoyed the finer things in life. He attended the best schools, travelled the world, and lived in luxurious homes. But he is not arrogant or spoiled. Instead, he is kind, compassionate, and generous. He is always willing to help others, and he is deeply committed to making the world a better place. When Andrew walks into a room, all eyes turn to him. He is simply breathtaking. But it is more than just his physical appearance that makes Andrew so appealing. He is also intelligent, charming, and witty. He knows how to make a woman feel special and appreciated. Andrew is the kind of man who makes women weak in the knees. He is the perfect combination of good looks, intelligence, and wealth. He is every woman's dream man. He is the kind of man who turns heads wherever he goes. He is simply irresistible than Dickson. After having a taste of what Dickson looks like and tasted like she went over to Andrew. The same woman Dickson threw out of his home and despised so much is now in a relationship with Andrew. “How did she always get so lucky? How? What is in her that attracts men of great influence to love her?” Stella questioned her inner child. “Take a look at those two kids, they look so much alike like Dickson. Is it that Dickson is the father of these children?” Amelia asked Stella as she moved closer to her offering her a glass cup of wine. “I’ve also thought about that but I can't seem to believe that Dickson is responsible. Have you forgotten so soon hope Dickson hated the sight of Amanda not to talk of having s*x with her. That can’t even be possible.” Stella responded. “But,what if they were just trying to deceive us the public by painting an hatred pictures before our eyes but in the other room they secretly f*ck each other desperately. Have you ever thought about that?” “Listen to me and listen very well, Amelia. I know my sister very well and I know that she and Dickson never had s*x before.” “Oh! Wow! I can’t believe that you are the one saying this,Stella. You know Amanda but you don’t know about her kids and her relationship with Andrew. Let me paraphrase the question again. How well do you know your sister again?” “ I don’t have time to prove myself to you anymore. Let’s just go out there and see what’s happening.” Amanda placed her down because she was too terrified to look at the sight of the people who had gathered to celebrate her father’s death. She just wanted to take the kids to go and see her sisters and brothers. She didn’t owe anyone an explanation about her kids. Dickson took a step forward as he saw Amanda hiding her face amidst the crowd. “ Hello! Amanda. It’s so nice to see that you are back after all these years.” When Amanda heard the masculine voice she gave Dickson a weak smile and tried moving on. “I can see that you and your kids are looking so pretty and doing so well. Is this the product of you and Andrew’s cohabitation?” Amanda paused for a few seconds, then she replied calmly. “Andrew and I are just friends, nothing more to that. He decided to show up today as a friend to give me a pat on my back.” Dickson laughed hysterically,” Are you trying to say that they are my kids? From all that you’ve just said it seems like they are my kids.” However, Andrew who was standing distant from them could tell that something didn't seem right. He felt so upset seeing Amanda talking to another man even though he had no idea that Dickson was Amanda’s exhusband. Andrew left the crowd and went to the garden to ooze his temper. He and Amanda have only known each other for eight months when he bumped into her the night Dickson sent her out of his apartment. Right after he brought her this far, she threw herself into another man’s arm. “Oh! I guess you’ve found another man that’ll be licking your pussy every night. I knew you were cheating on me before I divorced you. For the fact that you didn’t take the offer I gave you made me believe that you’ve found another man who is capable of taking care of your bills.” Dickson spoke rudely to her. “I won’t stand and watch you say those nasty things to me, Dickson.” “How shameless! Amanda, you disgust me and you know it.” Dickson spat on her feet as he cursed her. His patience kept running out of time, so he took himself out of the scene, before he did something he’ll later regret. “Dickson! Dickson!” Amelia called out as she hurriedly ran towards him. Stella kept whispering to Amelia to go after her man and go get it right. The media house could see what was going on so they rushed towards Dickson's car and held out their microphones to bombard him with questions. “Mr. Dickson what do you think about the relationship between your exwife and Mr. Andrew?” “Amanda lived with you for four years and she was unable to give birth despite the promises,but seeing these two beautiful kids today, Do you think that they are your children?” Dickson tried his possible best to avoid the reporters but yet to no avail. But, with the help of his bodyguards he was able to get into his car without answering any of their questions. “Dickson! Dickson!....” Amelia called out his name but the engine of his car gave her a response by zooming off. The group of reporters all turned to face her as they all threw different questions at her. “Amelia, Is there any probability of Amanda and Dickson getting back together to set it right?? “Has any date been fixed yet for you and Dickson's wedding?” Amelia never thought that a day like this will come where she’ll have to answer the press. Her eyes became so weak and teary. She stammered a lot trying to make a sentence. Stella, Who watched at a distant length became worried about Amelia and how she was been surrounded by the press came to her rescue as she dragged Amelia out of the press and fired back at the press saying, “ No interviews for now!”“Ma’am you can’t just drag her out and tell us to our face that there’s no interview when you haven’t given us an answer yet.” the head of the reporters said.“Please, Ma’am just say something to us, even though it’s a line we are open to as long as it comes from you.”one of the reporters spoke to StellaShe clears her throat and sips her wine before saying, “ As for Amelia’s wedding i believe things are going as planned. I can’t speak for her, but from the arrangements I've seen so far the wedding will be held any time soon, Thank you.”“Ma’am, is it true that Amanda will take over your father’s company and also be the one supervising it while you and your siblings are only entitled to ten percent of it?” another reporter asked her the question.“I….I… don’t you all want to know the truth about my father’s will. Well, I can’t watch my father’s company go down the drain just because it’s being headed by someone who is still learning how to walk.”“Are you trying to tell us that Amanda
“Are you okay? I hope your aggressive brother didn’t hurt you at all.”Dickson asked as he followed her to the washroom to wash off her hands stained with blood.“I’m fine, Dickson. You didn’t have to follow me down to this place. Please, Kindly use the exit door and wait for me till I'm done cleaning up.” Amanda responded.“I never knew you possessed this power in you. I thought you were being feminine but seeing the way you treated your brother today made me realise that I haven't studied you well.”Amanda's mood suddenly changed as she turned around to face Dickson. She didn’t want to be over reactive so she rinsed her hands,dried it up with water before leaving the washroom.As she was about leaving the washroom, Dickson threw her off her feet by asking.“Who is the father of your kids, Amanda? How did you get to meet Andrew? Why are you acting so fast? Are you trying to pin those kids to Andrew?”Although Dickson and Amanda are both divorced, Dickson can’t stand the sight of seein
“You dare not pull that stunt on me. Even if you try playing the tape, who do you think the crowd will believe? Is it you whom everyone has tasted your pussy or me that everyone believes to be the cool headed man.”Dickson turned around to clean his runny nose, only to see Amanda with a pen knife closer to his neck like a furious wolf waiting to devour his prey.“Why do you love making my life uncomfortable? Why are you so wicked and mean? What exactly do you want from me?Dickson was dumbfounded as he saw the ire in her. He only straightened up his legs and adjusted his tie to the normal position.Since the past five years he had known Amanda never did he for once imagine that a day like this would come. The calm and submissive Amanda is the one threatening his life like this.But, now she is the one threatening his life with a knife, which he less expected.“Get off me, Amanda! Don’t make me fight you back.”Amanda gave him a deaf ear as she rolled her arms and gave him a heavy blow
“Are you all surprised? I headed and directed C and M Technologies, in charge of the Marketing team. Take a look at the proof of my statement. I know most of you are surprised. Did I just say most of you? I meant all of you. I know you all watched the last month's business reports news and you saw that C and M revenue skyrocketed ,right? I single handedly made that happen.”Everyone was shocked to hear all that Amanda has accomplished.C and M Technologies is every man’s dream company. They pay their workers and staff very well plus every year they all go for an all expense paid trip.For Amanda to be the head and supervise that company made her the youngest supervisor in the world. Who would have thought that the woman once bullied by Dickson would stand out among the crowd?“Hold on for a second. Don’t tell me you are the famous Amanda that my kids do talk about and wish to be like you?“- Aunty Hannah spoke.Amanda smiled confidently and replied, “Yes ma'am, that’s me.”Speechless,
“Amanda, What did you just say? Are you throwing me out of my father’s business?”Amanda looked at Patrick calmly. “Please, don’t take it as if I’m kicking you out or throwing you out of my father’s company. I feel like you are not capable of running it anymore. Patrick, try to grow out of your comfort zone and stop being stagnant!”“I believe you all can see how the company went to point zero when Patrick headed it. Why? He lacked professionalism. He went ahead to employ all his family members forgetting that this is business and not a charity organisation. They all came to feed on us. They don’t even contribute to the growth of the company. If I don't lay them off this company will never grow.”“Wow! Wow! Interesting! I can see how obligated you are.! How in God’s name did Dad raise such a Liability like you Amanda! If only he could wake up from the dead and see all his efforts being wasted. How are you even my sister?” Stella pounded the desk in annoyance , wishing that it was Aman
"Mommy is still in a meeting. You should head home. After the meeting, I'll come back to be with you, alright?" Amanda gently informed Francis.Francis, with a serious expression, placed his hands in his pockets. "Mommy, Francisca, and I are concerned that you might face bullying. We're staying here to protect you!"Amanda couldn't help but smile. "Thank you, my dear kids. But Mommy really needs to finish the meeting first. You staying here might distract me.""Well, you go to the meeting first, Mommy, and we'll wait for you here! I'll take care of Francisca and ensure we don't cause any trouble!" Despite being only four years old, Francis displayed an unusual level of intelligence."Yeah, we're not going anywhere, Mommy!" Francisca chimed in. Her sharp-witted nature and distinct character set her apart from her brother.As the two kids engrossed themselves in their phones, they came across numerous online posts attacking their mom, causing them concern. This prompted their visit to p
Dickson arched his eyebrows casually, a deceptive ease in his expression. Yet, beneath the surface, a simmering rage threatened to erupt, a desire to unleash chaos upon everyone present.Patrick impatiently adjusted his suit and declared to Amanda, "Sign it, and you can be the chairwoman. But heed my warning—I doubt you can keep that promise. You risk losing everything and staining the family name and company name further. If that happens, I'll sever ties with you too. However, surrender the shares now, and you'll remain my beloved sister. As your elder brother, I'll treat you well."Patrick's implication wasn't lost on anyone; it was a veiled threat to Amanda. If she insisted on usurping him, their brother -sister bond would crumble.A chill inexplicably crept over Amanda. First, her ex-husband's hindrance, and now, her brother engaging in moral manipulation. A challenging moment indeed."Fine, I'll sign," Amanda yielded, a condition hanging in the air. "But I have a request. All sha
"Mrs. Stella , how do you view Amanda 's connection with Mr. Dickson?""Word on the street is that Amanda has invested in one of the biggest company Africa. Any truth to that?""That's her personal affair. See her there, why don’t you go ask her yourself!" Alison's expression turned serious, clearly uninterested in an interview. "These rumours of stealing men and properties are common, but you should look beyond that. The Terry’s are a highly respected family. Do you think they'd let their heir marry someone like that? Let time reveal the truth."For the media, it was a bombsh*ll. Whether it was true or not didn't matter as long as it captured public interest. Alison won't let Amanda overshadow her own sister, and it's the very reason she took action against Amanda five years ago. Amanda's brilliance was a threat to Amelia's spotlight."Mrs. Stella, can you share the details of Ms. Amelia and Mr. Dicksons upcoming wedding since she is your best friend?" "Well, it's been three years si
