(Jack’s Pov)I was so happy that Lily called, if not I would have still been there in that Bar discussing my personal live with Pat. He used to be my best friend then in school, apart from him having a high taste when it comes to food, a lot seem to have changed with him. Trying to talk about my life is one of the reasons I don’t let anyone feel too comfortable around me to discuss.I was happy seeing Pat and was a bit relieved when I saw him because I thought maybe since I don’t have any friend at all, we might go back to being as close as we used to be in school then but I didn’t want that anymore. I dislike men who talk a lot and who always wants to know about my personal life at any slightest opportunity they get, makes me feels like I’m being set up.As much as I was happy that Lily’s call saved me from the unfriendly environment with Pat, I wasn’t so sure if I wanted to know why she was calling me, I ended her call after it rang for a while before bidding Pat goodbye.I flagged

(Jane’s Pov)After I asked Jack to go home, I walked into the Doctor’s office to know what kind of surgery he wanted to perform on Lily.“I already told her husband”“who is my brother” I interrupted him“she needs an urgent surgery to get rid of the coagulated blood in her womb which might lead to her inability to take in in future and is also harmful to her body system” he said looking at me eyeball to eyeball.“that’s a though one” I whispered to myself“yes, it is”I stood up and left his office and went back to the room where Lily was staying. By the time I got to her, she was already awake but unable to sit properly.“Jane” she shouted my name as hot tears rolled down her cheeks“I’m here now” I said giving her a warm hug.

(Lily’s Pov)I opened my eyes and I the environment was unfamiliar to me, I looked around and noticed that I was in the hospital. The only thing I had remembered was dialing Jack’s number when I couldn’t help myself anymore. I had called Jane first but she wasn’t taking up her calls then I decided to call Jack but what I wasn’t sure of was if Jack picked or not.I was the only one in the room, no doctor, no nurses and no guardian. Lying on the bed made me remember my father’s condition before he died, fear gripped me and as I was about standing up I felt a sharp pain on my stomach, it was as though I’ve been stabbed. I couldn’t help but shout at the top of my voice “aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh” I shouted and fell back to the bed“doctor, doctor” the small body sized nurse screamed as she ran into my room, without her putting on the nurse’s uniform, one would mistake her for a teenager.“don’t force yourself, just relax, breath in, breath out, easy” she sang as she demonstrated the exercise to

(Lily’s POV)“I’m really sorry that I wasn’t here when you woke up earlier” Jane apologized as she ran towards my bed.The aroma that came from the bag she was carrying made me wonder what was in the bag she had come with, obviously it was my food but I wondered which food it was.Jane walked towards me and as she gently massaged my forehead, Jane looked at me with a pity face and at same time signaled to me that she was sorry for not being around me. I knew at once how sorry she was for not being there when I woke up.“come on Jane, it is okay, you’re here now” I said placing my palm over hers on my forehead.“The doctor said I can only take soft foods for now” I murmured looking at Jane“yes, and it’s for your own good. You will start eating whatever you want when you start recuperating” Jane said to me“it’s not really going to be easy for me” I said frowning“I’m sorry about that but you just have to manage until we go home, by then you must have been strong enough. Let’s see what

(Jack’s Pov)Early that morning as I got up from my sleep, I realized that Jane and Lily were actually supposed to be home that very day, all Jane have been doing all these while was come home, pick the few things they need in the hospital and heading back straight to the hospital.

(Jane’s Pov)It has been complete two weeks in the hospital with Lily, even though I went out once in a while to get food and other things that she would be needing, like her clothes. Lily was already strong enough to walk but the doctor said I should make sure she doesn’t stress herself much in the house.On that Friday when it was time to take Lily home, I had gone home to change the Maserati car to our black SUV because I got tired of it. I’ve been driving in it for quite a long time now and it was time to change into a new baby.Our bags were fully packed and I made all the necessary payment to the hospital, since Jack sent me a whooping sum of money. Something in me just tells me he sent me that money because of Lily, Jack never sent me that amount of money before unless when I give him good reason why he should.

(Lily’s Pov) “here we are, welcome home beloved sister in-law” Jane said as she helped me walk up into my room.“thanks a lot sister in-law for the care and support” I said“you don’t have to thank me, we are family now, and that is what family do for one another, you should get some rest, let me go get the remaining things from the living room where the gateman dropped them” Jane said and went downstairs to get my belongings inside my room.It was almost noon when we back from the hospital and the noon day news had kicked off, since the television was on, I decided to listen to the news. The headlines were read out and one of them caught my attention, it was the headline that stated that ‘the President of the Walkers group of companies will be interrogated over the sudden disappearance of his debtor’.Hearing that particular news headline gave me a great concern and I had goosebumps all over me as I flashed back to the life threats I got from Jack when I said I wasn’t going to marry

They were already back from the hospital before I got home but I wasn’t in a very good mood to talk to anyone so I ignored the two women and raced upstairs to my room.“Jack Jack” Jane yelled at me but I was already in my room.I got to my room, took off my garments and breezed into the bathroom for a shower. I dipped myself in the bathtub and thought deeply about how to handle the press the following day.It’s so alarming how people can be so ungrateful, the ZEDE company has been a pain in the ass for my company but despite its flaws of not reaching the standards of the companies we partnered with, we still helped her reach her target and made her visible in the competitive market place.

Jane was the one who saved me this time, if not for her, Jack would have choked me to death. “what kind of man raises his hands on a woman?” not only did he have his way against my own wish, he still went ahead to raise his hands on me.I was in so much pain, knowing the kinds of pain Jack has inflicted in my life, for the hurtful and hateful words he used on me, I made up my mind to deal with him. He would feel so sorry for himself when I’m done telling the whole world the kind of man he really is.I was burning with so much furry like I’ve never done before, the times I got really angry were few so I wouldn’t say I was a person who gets angry so easily.
