Chapter 64:"And where are you coming from?" Darius enquired as Danah crept toward the home.Danah was surprised because she didn't anticipate Darius being in the living room."I was... I was in the surroundings receiving fresh air,” Danah stuttered."Where were you?" he asked to be sure he heard her correctly. "I was getting fresh air outside,” she said more assuredly this time."You were receiving fresh air. That is good but what is wrong with the air inside?" Darius asked with his legs crossed. "The air, you mean the air..." she stuttered again."Yes, the interior air. What is wrong with it?” He screamed."The air, I just thought I needed to relax," she said."Relax! And the greatest place to unwind was outside. What is wrong with your room? If I may ask, just where were you unwinding?” He queried.“I was at the—”"There is no point trying to lie I went outside not too long ago and I didn't find anyone that looked like you anywhere near, so where were you?" he asked."I was..."

Chapter 65:Lucius walked into his room and Layla wasn't inside, but he could hear water splashing from the bathroom. So he guessed she was taking a shower. He sat on his bed to relax a little, after a while he didn't hear the sound anymore.Layla came out naked from the bathroom and was shocked to see Lucius in the room, he wasn't supposed to be there."Fuck," he spat. "I am sorry I wasn't supposed to be here," he said using his hand to cover his face and tried walking away."Stop," Layla called out before he could reach the door."I don't want you to leave Lucius, I want you to be with me, I need you badly" she whispered.Lucius didn't think he heard her well."What did you say?" He asked."Come to me Lucius, I feel lonely or don't you care about me anymore?" she asked."Of course I do but for now, I need to go. You aren't in your right state of mind at the moment, if I do anything to you I will only be taking advantage of you" he replied trying so hard not to look at her naked bod
Chapter 66:Darius and Lucius stood still and turned to face her. She noticed someone has entered the sitting room, this was what brought her back to her consciousness."Where are you coming from?" She asked with authority."What is the meaning of that in my own house?" Lucius furiously asked.She passed her boundaries for asking that kind of question. How dare her."You heard me where are you coming from?" She asked again this time with much confidence."You dare not me this kind of question ever in your miserable life," Lucius spat."Of course, I will and I will ask you again, where are you coming from?" He said."How dare you?" Lucius said as he moved close to her and was about to hit her. "Stop this right," Lucius refrain from his act after Darius shouted."Why did you stop him from doing his wish? Do you think I am an ordinary lady? I have a black belt in karate, you will only hand up messing with yourself if you mess around with me. I am not just anyhow girl," she said walking
Chapter 67:There was silence in the dining room, you could hear the sound of a pin if it dropped.Each and everyone in the dining kept looking at each other as they had their meals.Fey looked at Layla and thought she was supposed to be silent after what she told her this morning, why would she sit then and pretend as if nothing happened?After much consideration, she decided to break the silence.She coughed a little to clear her throat and immediately she did the brothers knew there was going to be another problem.“Good morning to you all,” she said but there was no response from any of them.They should have done that before eating and for them not to mean they were not interested. Lucius looked directly at Fey, he wished he could strangle the life out of her, he couldn’t believe he was the instrument that was used to bring her to the house.Darius smiled as he stared at her and at the same time ate his food, he loved the game they were playing.“Good morning,” she said again but
Chapter 68:"Wait, what about the shopping you promised me,” Fey suddenly asked.Darius stopped mid-step, “I never promised you anything,” Darius replied her.“But it isn't fair, what am I supposed to wear?” she asked.“Life itself isn’t fair and wear whatever you like,” Darius replied and some steps.“But for Layla's sake, speak to Beatrice about it,” he said and left.“And you,” she said facing Layla immediately after Darius left, “What is the meaning of what you did back then,” she asked.“Meaning of what? I don’t understand what you are saying?” she declared.“How will you? You sat there and you didn’t correct me that I was addressing the wrong and you didn’t correct me all this while,” she said.“Oh that, I thought you knew what you were doing,” Layla replied.“You thought, this isn't your fault at all, I should have allowed that animal to eat you up yesterday,” she stated.“you talk as touch you will wait if you saw the animal. didn’t you just admit in front of everyone that you
Chapter 69:“You were right to bring her here was a bad idea but for me to remain here I think that is the worst,” Lucius who had been staring from the top said.“you think so?” Darius asked.“I don’t think so, I know so,” Lucius replied.“But I am beginning to enjoy her presence now more than before,” Darius said.“you are what? but I thought you were against her staying with us... How come she no now interests you? I don’t think I can live with her for days without strangling the life out of her,” Lucius spat.“We are in this together, they started this game, let both enjoy it to the end. Why don’t you watch them like a fool for now and let them play their last card and by this, we will determine who the real boss is,” Darius said walking towards him.“I shouldn’t just watch her trample on my dignity. This is uncalled for Darius, she disrespects me at any slightest opportunity. You should let her go now, I don’t think I can cope with her living with us this long I will kill her by m
Chapter 70: "This is Jake the person I spoke to you about,” Vanessa said, “This is Nathan Myles, one of the top lawyers in the country."Jake gave him a handshake and directed him to his seat."Coffee or tea?" Vanessa questioned."Tea will do," Myles said.Vanessa walked to the kitchen to prepare him some tea."Vanessa here has told me a lot about your case; I ask that you tell me the truth and nothing but the truth; I'm here to help you," he said. "I am here going to be asking you some questions now like I said earlier be truthful,” Myles added"All right, I'll give you every response I have available. And I swear to tell the truth," Jake stated."This girl in question—who is she to you?" Myles enquired."Her name was Layla, she was my ex-girlfriend,” Jake responded,Myles was given some tea by Vanessa, who then quickly sat down next to Jake."Thank you," Myles replied after he accepted the tea from her, he took a sip before setting it down on the table. "She was your girlfriend r
Chapter 71:Rather than reply Jake, Vanessa rolled her eyes and walked away from him."Vanessa what is wrong with you? what have I done this time around?" He remarked as he attempted to stop her."Leave me, let go of me,” Vanessa replied taking his hand off her body.“We don’t need to be doing this at this time, we are supposed to be strong, we need each other for us to fight and overcome this battle,” Jake said."What battle? This is your battle, and it's just for you," she said as she backed away from him, "Fight on your own." She hissed.“You can’t do this to me, my mess should be your mess,” he said moving with her to the room."I am not in any mess; this is your mess alone, do you get that?" She stated as she sat on the bed. "But I thought you said you love me, and the best you should do for me right now is to support me and fight this together," Jake said and knelt in front of her.“Love you say? Is this what love means to you? How can you say you love me when you sleep around
