His words made Pamela glance at him with tears. He had told her he couldn't make babies. He is sterile and this might indeed be a chance for him to know what it's like. Pamela sniffled and covered her mouth with her palm. This world is not a balanced place. Someone couldn't make a baby but was eager to stay by the side of a pregnant woman and act as a stand-in father While someone else who owned the baby is frolicking around with another woman. Human nature and life itself is dynamic. Alice felt something was odd in Lucas' words. There is something that she hadn't known. And she feels like she's having a crush on him. She must find out. Seeing that Pamela wasn't responding, Lucas was still worried, he held Pamela's two hands and said "You remember something I told you before, right? I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I can't do anything to stop you from aborting this baby. This is something I longed for, I can't allow you hurt this child" Pamela nod
Grand nanny whispered something in a hushed voice to Alyana and the latter nodded. She told her to bring out the golden coloured box from under her bed and Alyana did. With a few more instructions, Alyana left and took the box along with her. Grand nanny sighed in relief. She had fulfilled Alice's desire, she guessed. Now, Pamela will get a little of all that belonged to her. She wanted to give it to her on her grandfather's coronation, when she would be made the crowned princess, the next heir to the throne of the Middletown City. But that day had passed but Pamela wasn't allowed to witness it. She might die any moment soon and what will happen to the entire wealth that Alice gave her to keep? Clarion was in her chambers, dressed in her night dress when the chief maid brought in sweet incense to her and bowed before her. "His highness the King request your presence in his chambers" she said with her knees and her head bent . Seeing the sweet incense and
Leah Hayden dashed into the office without waiting to be invited over. Pamela saw her and sighed. She glance at her secretary and said "you may leave us" Leah glanced around the office. It looked good. This is definitely Louis' properties otherwise why would the company be called "Annex cooperation" It's an Annex of the Hayden's cooperation. Last that she remembered, Ellis said the company went up for sale. They didn't know what happened except that a few weeks later it was changed from the stone cut group to Hayden's cooperation Annex. This was definitely the reason Pamela stuck to her son. She was behaving like a woman of steel whose fist is made of iron initially when she just returned from Middletown City. But soon, she was going after Louis like a tail. She got him and next, they claim to be getting married. If she hadn't intervened on time, she would have roped Louis and been called by the name Mrs Hayden. "Good morning mom" Pamela greeted. She glared
"... If Alice Johnson was still Alive, would you be able to treat her daughter this way, you think she would remain your friend after seeing your inhumane behaviour to her daughter. What kind of a woman are you? You are a terrible friend and a horrible mother. I don't ever want to be like you. If this is the kind of person you had always been, then my mom was wrong in her choice of friend. I may never have known my mom, we might have missed each other on the edge of life, but she wouldn't be this terrible to your son if the table had turned around. But it's alright, Leah Hayden. Anything is possible in this life. I won't bother myself going after your son. I leave your son to you. But one day, you will take the path that Alice took and meet her on the other end. Tell her how much you love and treat her daughter. Then your grandchildren will know every single thing and part you played in the relationship between their parents and they will curse your memory, a
Romeo poured out a glass of water for Ellis Hayden and the old man gulped down the entire contents at a time and placed the glass on the desk with a loud sound. He glared at Romeo and thundered "Why didn't you tell me all you knew before it got to this point? Why do you have to wait until it's completely unredeemable before voicing it out?" "Mrs Leah Hayden threatened to silence me. She once fired me. It's only because President Hayden came out of the concussion and asked after me that I got reinstated" Romeo explained. Ellis just waved at Romeo to leave. The latter left and he closed his eyes, trying his best to calm his troubled mind. In Middletown City, Clarion was summoned that the royal physician had tested the concubines and two of them were pregnant with the royal seed. She was to come over to bless them and advise them as the queen mother. King Tarvan was throwing a cocktail party to that effect and also requested for her to be present. She sai
Ellis arrived home, his mood was scary and his eyes were red. He gave out a cold aura and when Leah saw him, she knew something had gone wrong, somewhere. "Are you alright, Ellis!" Leah asked, coming over and placing her hands on his shoulders. She turned him to glare at her and stared into his eyes. "What's the matter, Ellis? You can talk to me, I am here to listen" Leah said, caressing her husband's face, trying to calm his tense mood. Ellis just stared at Leah. She could act so well. He didn't know he had married and lived with a drama queen all these years. She chose to be mean and evil towards her own son and in extension to Pamela. Directly or indirectly, he is just realising that she's a terrible mother and unfilial friend. If what he heard about his wife came from an opponent,a rival, he would contend with such a one and sue him for defamation. But it's Romeo. Louis' own assistant. He even assured him that he could investigate and asked his wife
Clarion's eyes went moist but she held back her tears. Tarvan's disrespect for her has gone wild. It's a matter of minutes and the entire Middletown City would know that the King humiliated the queen. "Grand nanny. I don't know what to do again. Tarvan Johnson is different from the man I used to know. He is different, he wanted an heir but had always been silent as if he didn't care about my inability to have another conception after Alice. I worked hard and because I knew a day would come when he would want an heir,I went after Alice's daughter and brought her home. I feel she would take the place of Alice in our hearts. She looked very much like her mother, Alice Johnson of the past. I was glad when he inculcated her into the royal family. But I was wrong. Only I love Pamela, Tarvan never did. He was putting up a pretence, waiting for the day of his coronation where he can take more wives. He called me barren, grand nanny, Tarvan called me so. He said I
Hadn't she bargained for what she cannot buy? She had bitten more than she could chew. She glared at Miranda Alvan,this woman had possessed Louis. Leah was furious and wanted to slap Miranda Alvan but the latter intercepted her hand and held it tight in mid air. She bent her hand backwards suddenly and yelled into her ears "what were you thinking, are you crazy or you are being stupid?" She threw her hand off violently and Leah almost tripped over for lack of balance. Her hand pained her and she glared at Miranda Alvan in dismay. "Don't ever think of raising your hand on me next time. Because if you do,I will break your bones. I will pretend that you didn't come here and didn't talk nonsense. If you turn around and leave. But if you try to ruin my relationship with your son, I will destroy you and turn Louis into a complete maniac. He will deteriorate and make him end up in a mental asylum. I won't have him and you won't either. He will become useless
