Louis looked totally exhausted, he had returned from the market and he looked really messed up.
His hands and clothes had dark stains all over as he was stinking of fish smell.Thelma smiled on seeing him, at least he was leaving the house on daily basis unlike before when he spent hours drenching his throat and mouth with alcohol.His father sat at the other corner with a newspaper in his hands."Good evening father" he greeted walking past him."Good evening son" his father greeted back as he watched him pass.Thelma turned to him "I told you that soon he would get over everything."He chuckled "I hope he forgives you when he finds out that you were the enemy he didn't know was lurking around."Her eyes widened in anger "what nonsense are you talking about?""About the evil you did Thelma, stop acting like what you did was right " he said fixing his gaze on the newspaper.She stood to her feet adjusting her clothes "well to keep yoRelated chapters

Louis turned to his mother "I met Selena the other day."Thelma stood to her feet at once "you did what?"She looked furious.Louis gaped "why are you acting like I said I met the devil?""Well you did meet the devil" his mother yelled."Stop it mother!" Louis screamed."Stay away from Selena or you might get yourself in trouble Louis, end this fire before it burns you too" she said.Louis scoffed "well you wouldn't be saying this now if Maryann didn't come out from no where to ruin my plans of running away with Selena."Thelma gasped staring at her son.She couldn't believe what she just heard.Thelma knew how dangerous it would be for Louis if Mr Chancy gets to find out that he ever had plans of eloping with Selena.Thelma walked closer to him and placed her hand on his shoulder "you remember what Mr Chancy did to you the last time he saw you with Selena, stay away from that girl if you really want to live long, that girl is b

Selena's POVI have always dreamed of my wedding day from childhood, I dreamt of being the Ceo of a big company and getting married to a prince charming but today it's a different story for me.I am going to the boutique to select the finest wedding gown which I would wear to be wedded to the old Mr Chancy whose daughter would be my brides maid, quite an irony of life.We dream of the perfect yet the unbelievable and unplanned becomes our fate, well this is my fate now, an old man's little fiancée.As I dressed up in my nice printed dress, the thought of Anabelle crept back into my mind, I miss her so much and I wish so hard that she was here to keep me comforted as I take this ridiculous step to become an old man's little wife.I found my way to Mr Chancy's room when I was done dressing up, it was still the early hours of the morning so I was sure that he is still at home.I knocked on his door twice and he beckoned me in.He looked relaxed

Stella chortled raising her shoulders high, she walked gently around the room."I know it's not your wedding day yet my lady, but looking good at all time is my major priority" she said.I nodded my head in agreement, Stella is one lady I know who pays great attention to everything she wears and of course she is crazy about fashion, I guess this is one of the reasons why her father is comfortable with her following me to the boutique.I sighed standing to my feet "I wish I could pay so much attention to myself like you do."Stella laughed walking closer to me "of course you can if only you allow me teach you how to."I nodded "maybe after the wedding."She giggled moving backwards.Stella placed her hands on her hips smiling "so tell me Selena, how do I look?"I had this grin on my face with the way she stood, her legs were long and straight, Stella looked like one of those models you see in the front of a magazine and I can't deny the fact th

Selena's POVStella was taken to the hospital.She had lost so much blood by the time the ambulance came.I tried reducing the flow of blood but the knife stuck in her belly got me even more scared, I was scared that I might end up causing her more harm.My body and hands were stained with blood as I paced the hospital hallway impatiently waiting for the doctor to come out and say something good.I was so scared of what Mr Chancy might to to me if anything should happen to his only child.I hated the fact that this had to happen to Stella but who would want to kill me?Stella sacrificed herself for my safety and I can't just believe that she could take such risk for me, why would she even do something as dangerous as that?I felt weak and tired.My shoulders sagged as I quietly sat on a long bench close by supporting my bowed head with my hands.My tears dropped to the ground.The whole event came flashing back into my mind, it

Louis was dumbfounded.For a moment he stood still lost and drenched in his own thoughts.He couldn't comprehend anything that had just happened.Louis ran after his mother and the man."Mother what is going on?" He yelled.Thelma and the man were fast.Louis had a hard time trying to catch up with them with his face frowned.Louis paused when they arrived in the middle of the road.Their was a crowd and an ambulance lifting bodies to the stretcher.He got even more confused.Louis heard his mother screaming on top of her voice and the man who had come to the house to break the horrible news to her was trying his best to console her.Louis walked faster to the ambulance before the bodies were lifted into it.He unzipped the blankets covering the corpse.His mouth dropped open on seeing his younger brother looking dry and thick.There was a gunshot hole in his forehead and blood stains all over his face.Louis

Louis couldn't say a word.He stared blankly into his mother's eyes whose face was soaked in tears and her eyes clogged with more tears which were gradually fighting it's way down to her cheeks."It's of no use trying to explain anything to you mum cause you would never listen to me" Louis said.Thelma scoffed running her hands through her face.She couldn't believe that Louis could still confidently talk to her.She blinked her eyes severally "you are just unbelievable, how on earth did I end up having a stupid boy like you as a son?"Louis was shocked "mum what did you just say?""You heard me right stupid! You still talk about listening to you after what happened to your brothers? My sons are dead, dead Louis all because of you!" She yelled."Mother listen! I have had enough of you yelling at me and accusing me of something I know nothing about" he said sadly."I see.... you know nothing about it right? Yet you attacked Selena and Mr C

He took a glance behind.I swallowed hard rubbing my hands on each other."But he told us nothing" the body guard said.I glared at him snatching the car keys from his hand."Don't you ever call me a liar" I warned.I walked straight to the car and got into it and sat quietly.I pinched myself hard looking a little surprised at myself."Did I just talk to that body guard that way?" I thought shutting my eyes.Well that was the only way I could get to make him believe that I was telling the truth.I started the engine of the car and drove off.Few minutes later...I parked the car in front of Louis's house.I alighted from the car, my eyes were everywhere searching for him."What are you doing here Selena?" I pheard a voice ask.I turned around at once and gasped.It was Louis and he looked like a shadow of himself.I couldn't say anything, I was just staring at him."I asked a question Selena, what
