On entering her room, she met Grandma Elizabeth, sitting on her bed, with her leg crossed and a glass of wine in her hands. “Grandma” she called out, surprised to see her in her room. She wondered what she was doing in her room and on her bed, sipping her wine from the glass cup. “You are Cinderella Mackenzie, right? How did you and my grandson meet? I have been wondering how the both of you met” Elizabeth paused as she sipped from her wine and then continued.“Brandon is not into any woman, and all of a sudden he’s married to you who happened to be a mother to eight kids that look so much like him. Is this a coincidence or…..” she paused as she stood up from the bed and walked towards Hannah and whispered in her ear. “I just found out your real name is Hannah Rodriguez,” Elizabeth said and Hannah felt a cold shiver run down her spine.“I wonder why Brandon said your name is Cinderella Mackenzie instead of Hannah Rodriguez, or he doesn’t know about it? Oh my goodness! I’m sure he
Chapter 38Common, let’s do this and make sure none of us get caught. Are you guys ready?” Jayden asked and they nodded in response. “Let’s go”******************Meanwhile, the girls are seen walking towards Jessica's room when they saw Brandon walking out of their mommy’s with his phone in his ear. He was on a phone call. They quickly hid themselves.“She’s gonna be the new COO. I want you to make sure her office and everything is in place tomorrow, although I told her she could resume anytime” Brandon said as he walked inside his study room. The kids sighed softly, they were glad they weren’t caught. If there’s one thing they’ve noticed about Brandon is that, whenever he’s on call, he’s always talking about business or his office and the kids find it boring. They moved away from where they were hiding and walked towards Jessica’s room. They opened the door slightly and walked inside the room. They scrutinized the whole room and noticed no one was inside.They wondered where s
Chapter 39“I...” a voice muttered and everyone's eyes moved towards the direction where the voice came from and to their surprise, they all saw Hannah looking so beautiful in her dress. Brandon swallowed hard as he stared at her. He was almost lost in her beauty, he had seen lots of beautiful women in his life, but this woman in front of him, there was something about her beauty that made a strange feeling arouse in him. “What the hell?” Grandma Elizabeth muttered with shock in her eyes. “You asshole!” she muttered as she stared at Hannah who walked towards her kids and kissed them on their cheeks. “The driver will take you guys to school. I'll come to pick you guys up when you close from school” Hannah said as the kids stood up from the chair they were sitting on.“It's fine Mommy, you should focus on your work, you can ask the driver to pick us up from school,” Jayden said and she smiled at the same kids. She didn't know what she could do without them. “Bye Mommy, we love you”
Chapter 40Hannah is seen sitting in her office staring at the computer in front of her. She didn't believe what Grandma Elizabeth had said, that Brandon and Jeff are stepbrothers. Does that mean they both know each other? No, that cannot be true, she was so sure Elizabeth was trying to piss her off, and come to think of it, Elizabeth has been doing too much digging about her past, it was high time she does something about it, she thought. Just then a knock came in, “Come in” she muttered and the door opened revealing Liam.“Mr. Brandon wants you to meet him outside the company in his car,” Liam said and Hannah raised her eyebrows giving him a questioning look.“Tch” she clicked her tongue as she remembered she was going to attend a party with Brandon. “I'll be there in a jiffy,” Hannah said and Liam nodded in response before leaving. she stood up and packed her things in her bag. She walked out of her office and entered the elevator.Immediately she walked out of the elevator,
Chapter 41Just as she was about to enter the bathroom, she bumped into someone unexpectedly. “You asshole, watch where you are going to” A voice yelled and Hannah raised her head to see who it was and to her surprise, she saw Grandma Elizabeth.“What are you doing here?” Elizabeth asked surprised to see Hannah. “I should be asking you that!” Hannah said and Elizabeth scoffed. “He brought you with him. That's weird and unlike him” Elizabeth said as she stared at her from her head to her toe. “Enjoy the party,” she said with a devilish smirk on her face and walk past Hannah. Hannah stared at her suspiciously, she didn't know why but she felt she was up to something.She quickly shook off the thought and walked inside the restroom. When she was done, she walked out of the restroom and decided to locate where the party was being hosted, when she suddenly heard two men whispering among themselves.She had wanted to walk past them but then she suddenly heard them mention Brandon’s nam
Chapter 42And suddenly a voice spoke from behind. It was no other person but Brandon.“You heard the woman, Let her go!!” Brandon spoke in a calm tone but yet the tone was so cold and deadly as he walked towards Jeff and gripped his hands. Jeff turned and stared at who it was and to his surprise he saw Brandon Colby. His biggest rival and enemy in the business industry.“And who are you to tell me what to do?” Jeff said with a grin on his face and Brandon scoffed. This man doesn’t know who and what he’s messing with. Maybe I need to reintroduce myself to him again, Brandon thought as the grip on Jeff’s hands tightened making Jeff wince in pain. He quickly let go of Hannah’s neck. Brandon scoffed as he squeezed his hands making him scream in pain. He suddenly let go of his hand and Jeff fell on the ground as he groaned in pain, and held his hands which were already broken. Brandon bent to his level and stared at Jeff’s face which was looking so red like a ripe tomato like it was ab
Chapter 43A black car screeched to a halt in front of Colby’s mansion.Brandon was the first to alight the car, Followed by Hannah who went straight to her room. Immediately she walked inside her room, took her bath, and walked out of the bathroom.She applied her lotion and put on a trouser and a shirt. She decided to go pick the kids up from school by herself but just then the door burst open revealing Brandon.He had come to check on Hannah, he needed to make sure she was okay after what Jeff did to her.“You should learn to knock before coming in. What if I was naked?” Hannah said as she rolled her eyes.“But you are not naked,” Brandon said and sat on the couch in the room, Hannah scoffed and shook her head. “How are you feeling? Does your neck still hurt?” Brandon asked in the most caring tone ever and Hannah raised her eyebrows wondering why he cares.“I’m fine,” Hannah said reluctantly.“I wonder how you got married to such a man in the past. Damn, Jeff is known for his hot
Chapter 44Meanwhile, the octuplets are seen sitting outside the school compound with their friend David, discussing with each other while they wait for their parents to come to pick them up. Other kids are still seen roaming around the school compound while different cars are seen packing outside the school, parents coming down from it and their kids running to hug them.“I don’t think mom is gonna come now, you know she just started work as the new COO today, she must be really busy,” Allison said and yawned. She was feeling so damn hungry. “My grandma is gonna be late too,” David said with a sigh.“Why don’t we do something to keep ourselves busy before they arrive,” Jayden said “What do you suggest we do?” Jamie asked curiously and Jayden smiled. The Octuplets frowned at once as they knew what was in Jayden’s mind.“No no, I can’t do that, it’s stealing… common Jayden, it’s too risky, what if we get caught?” Jasper said.“No, we won’t, we would just take the phone and leave….”
