Isabel stood from her feeble state, with her hands in her belly that was aching her seriously, but she felt a greater pain with the last words of her husband, she struggled to walk out of the hotel and went to squat by the corner of the hotel until it was very early in the morning.
She took a cab home, once she appeared inside her room, she hurriedly went to use her drugs, that was when she felt releived. She sighed and caressed her belly but her heart never stopped beating faster than normal.
She was scared of her belly, Nathaniel Dave had hit her on her belly, she did not know yet if it had affected her child. Once few hours had passed, she visited the hospital and confirmed that nothing was wrong with her child. Happiness grew quickly in her, giving birth to her child would be her only accomplishment in life and the profit she made out of her six years of loveless marriage with Nathaniel Dave before she died.
Isabel was disturbed about Jose
Cecilia woke four hours later, her eyes had become clear and her consciousness was fully back. She turned her head and saw that Nathaniel Dave was sleeping beside her, apparently, he was the man that had sex with her at night, she was so happy that her plan worked. Nathaniel Dave must be so tired after the hot round of sex that he had to fallen to his side and slept off.She walked out happily to wake and inform her mother about it, they were both happy their plan worked."You should be expecting Nathaniel Dave's child soon, " Mrs. Abraham said with a broad smile."I pray the child would be a son," She knew Nathaniel Dave would definitely be happy that she gets pregnant for him despite being his concubine."Go back and sleep beside him so he can be really sure he slept with you, also, you can let a part of your nakedness reveal itself so he wouldn't have any reason to doubt that he had sex with you, " Mrs. Abraham advised, Cecilia
Nathaniel Dave and Cecila appeared before Nathaniel Dave's father house, Isabel assumed that this must be his father's house, her husband had never seen any reason to bring her to see his father.Nathaniel Dave held the woman by her wrist and walked in elegantly into the house, once they appeared before Mr. Dave, his eyes furrowed in adoration of how beautiful and stunning his daughter in law was.He stood at once and welcomed them gleefully, Isabel felt nervous seeing the old man she assumed to be Nathaniel Dave's father but she felt relaxed when the man's face brightened up with a smile."Have your sit, " Mr. Dave gestured for the couple to sit.He was on a bright smile, " I didn't expect for my daughter in law to be this beautiful, " Mr. Dave was being sincere, Isabel blushed."How has your marriage been?" Mr. Dave was facing Isabel, he wants to be certain that their marriage was going on well. To him, if a man can
Joseph Brown watched Isabel arrange the drugs, he noticed the cover of the drugs wasn't the same as the one he sent her, " A minute , please, " he requested from Isabel and walked towards her. He examined those drugs and realized they were all poisonous drugs. If Isabel had taken this, it won't take her an hour before her belly start to rot."Is anything wrong?" Isabel asked when she realized that the expression on the face of Joseph Brown had changed into a serious and worrisome one.He was angry and thought the doctor he sent to deliver the drugs to Isabel had changed it. Did he has personal grudges with Isabel? he gathered the drugs from Isabel without saying a word and walked out with them.He returned to the hospital, not only did he ensure his father fired the man, he ensured the man was arrested.Isabel was confused, few minutes ago, the man was standing before her and was persuading her to use to drug he sent her, all of
Cecilia wasn't found until the evening of the following day, in fact, she would have spend more days there if not that she crawled her way to the middle of the road in the evening, a car coming by that time had to pause, wondering who it was that was on the road.After Cecilia had narrated her sincere predicament to the man, the man confirmed that she was indeed paralyzed and reasoned that there was little to what a paralyzed woman could so he asked for her house address, he dropped at the front of her house and drove off quick, he was just trying to be careful, people claiming to look for help in the streets could be up to something. After driving a distance, he parked to confirm that there was nothing odd in his car.Mrs. Abraham randomly strode out few minutes after Cecilia had been at the entrance, Cecilia had been calling unto her mother with her tiny voice but Mrs. Abraham could not hear as a result of the sound proof door that was at the entrance o
Isabel's hope kept fading as days passes, the days become weeks and they were passing gradually. She had only six months left to live. While she was inside, the door to the room was knocked roughly as if whoever was at the entrance had issues with her. It couldn't be Nathaiel Dave , he was found of pressing the visitor's bell not knock on the door roughly.Isabel went to the door nevertheless and she met with Mr and Mrs. Abraham.Her parents? what were they doing in her house? Ever since she got married to Nathaniel Dave, this will be their first time of coming to visit her, should she call it a visit? cause the look on their faces were bloody. As if they would desend heavily on her any moment from then.However, Isabel had not had any issues with them for the past four weeks, why did they appear suddenly, there was no need to worry, she would soon find out.Mr. and Mrs. Abraham entered the room and gazed around the house, they hav
Isabel's brightened face fell, she did not expect that after Nathaniel Dave had watched the clear video of Cecilia smuggling the pendant inside her pocket, he would still react that way. Disappointment appeared quickly on the face of Isabel.Wasn't video the best way to prove a case?Isabel bent nevertheless and picked her phone, the screen had been slightly broken, she went straight to the folder the video was but she was stunned not to find it there again.She checked the recycle bin but still could not find it there, " Why did you do this? do you love her so much that you can not tell that that she clearly set me up there?" Isabel was pissed and pained.Nathaniel Dave upper lips curled up in mockery of the woman before him, "you think I'm a fool, right? the stupid video was doctored, Cecilia is a kind and good woman, she would never do such, for what? think about it, why would she do that?"He continued, " its high t
Felix approached Joseph Brown's driver with an evil smirk on his face, " Who are you?" he grabbed the man angrily on his neck. He pushed him angrily towards the wall that the man hit his head on the wall, blood began to gush immediately."Please, I have nothing to do with Isabel, save my life, I was only delivering the message I was sent, " the man pleaded.Felix descended on him and began to beat him with all his strength, the man lost all strength and laid on the floor like someone that had given up on life, his face had been covered with blood and his legs were shivering on it's own.Joseph Brown had waited for more than five minutes and he was yet to see his driver, he suspected at once that something may be wrong especially when he did not see Isabel at the entrance of the house anymore.He walked carefully towards Isabel's house and he was stunned to see a car and a power bike parked before the house, he became even more worried.&n
Nathaniel Dave's face dropped on hearing Isabel accuse his beloved concubine, he should have reasoned that Isabel would always find every means to make Cecilia look like a bad woman before him, she might even hurt herself just to make it look like it was Cecilia who did that to her.Did she think all women are like her? If Cecilia was like her, she would have ochestrated an accident that would make her lost her legs too but she didn't, instead, ahe waited all these years with the hope of being his wife someday.Nathaniel Dave smirked and shot the woman a silly look, "you are not good in lying, are you?"Isabel gazed intently into the eyes of Nathaniel Dave. Exactly, she had thought that he would never believe it, hasn't he just proved it?"Since you didn't believe my words, can at least let me get down and treat myself at the hospital? " Isabel questioned."I'll take you to the hospital myself, " Nathaniel Dave got down from
