Stanley came down from his car and dial Vera number.
“Hey baby I’m outside your apartment” Stanley said with a smile.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Are you for real?” Vera replied and rushed out immediately.
She end the call immediately she saw Stanley and walk up to him
“Hey, you didn’t tell me you’re coming,” Vera said with a smile.
“Just trying to surprise you, don’t you like it?” Stanley replied.
“Why won’t I? I love it, come inside please” Vera replied, and Stanley smiled before going inside with her.
“You aren’t busy today?” Vera asked.
“Yes, why did you ask?” Stanley replied. “Remember you’re always busy to me, anytime I called you for us to hang out, you always told me you’re busy” Vera replied.
“It’s a lie, I lied because I don’t want your feelings to grow for me” Stanley replied.
“Oh you’re avoiding me then,” Vera said and left out a smirk and Stanley nod his head.
“What if I pay you back in your own coin?” Vera asked.
“You dare not, I did that because I don’t wanna hurt you, but I now discovered I was in love with you, so you can’t try that” Stanley said.
“I can do it, you made me look desperate then, I never knew you also love me but you’re just confused” Vera replied.
“I’m planning to tell my mother that I’ve break-up with Emma,” Stanley said.
“Hope she won’t get angrg? Because I discovered they love Emma” Vera replied.
“My mother also loves you, you’re the woman they want me to get married to before I took Emma home” Stanley replied.
“I know but I’m scared” Vera replied and Stanley moved closer to her.
He carried her and placed her on his lap. “Look here, my mother loves you, I’m sure she’ll agree and Emma has also promised to help us, you’re a nice and hardworking lady, you’re also rich, you’re every man’s dream woman but you’re mine,” Stanley said and Vera asked.
“I don’t believe you,” Vera said with a pout and tickled her.
She burst into laughter and Stanley used the opportunity to kiss her.
“You’re a thief, you just stole a kiss from me,” Vera said with a smile.
“You’re my girl, I can kiss you anyhow I like” Stanley replied and Vera shake her head negatively.
“I’m not yours, you haven’t asked me out properly” Vera replied.
“I don’t think there’s any need for that we are both in love” Stanley replied.
“There’s no need for that, you need to tell me that Vera I want you to be my girlfriend I badly need you,” Vera said.
“Okay, is that what you?” Stanley asked.
“Yes” Vera replied and look away immediately. “okay, Vera I want you to be my girlfriend,” Stanley said with a smile.
“You aren’t romantic, I mean in a romantic way, it mustn’t be today” Vera replied.
A knock came at the door and Vera stood up to open the door immediately.
“Mum, you didn’t tell me you’re coming,” Vera said with a smile.
“Surprised visit” Mrs. Dan replied.
. “Why am I getting surprised visit today?” Vera replied.
“Maybe because you’re special, I brought a good news one of my best friends’ son just came back from Chicago I’m sure you’ll love him, he’s very handsome,” Mrs. Dan said and walked fully inside the house.
“I’m not interested mum” Vera replied.
“Is this not Wilson’s son?” Mrs. Dan asked with a frown.
“Yes he is my boyfriend” Vera replied.
“When did that happen? Someone that disgraced you” Mrs. Dan said with a frown.
Steve look around in fright.
A frown crept to his face immediately he found out he was in the hospital.
He looks around and discovered he’s surrounded by cops.
“Shît,” he said before sitting up.
“Easy!” Bryan said and help him up.
“You’re here? What am I doing here?” Steve asked and Bryan hissed out loud.
“Are you asking me that type of silly question? Did the bullet affect your brain?” Bryan asked.
“The cops are on standby to arrest you anytime you wake up,” Bryan said.
“But why did they wanna arrest me? They should arrest Emma instead she did this to me” Steve said and look at his leg.
“Wait! Hope I can still walk with my legs?” Steve asked.
“Yes but it will take you some months, and you think I don’t know you tried to rape Miss Maxwell, so she only shoot you for self-defense, you don’t expect her to fold her hands and watch you rape her moreover she shot you with your gun, where did you get the gun from? They also meet hand drugs in your room, as if that’s not enough you planned to kill Rowen and you succeeded in shooting his friend” Bryan said.
“Rowen? I didn’t do that I’m not even done with my plan, I didn’t shoot him and I don’t take drugs stop accusing me wrongly” Steve replied.
“I don’t know you to be a lier, you always admit anything you do, so why are you lieing now?” Bryan asked.
“And I haven’t changed, I don’t take drugs and I don’t send anyone to shoot Rowen I thought Emma was joking when she told me this, and as for trying to rape Emma I did it, I’ve been in love since I know her, did you think it’s easy to be rejected, she choose a low life over me and I’m very sure the low life is only after her money,” Steve said and Bryan burst into laughter.
“You called Rowen a low life? You’re funny, Rowen is richer than Emma so that means Rowen can buy you three times” Bryan replied.
“You’re joking right?” Steve asked.
“I’m not, have you ever heard of Mr. Hunt?” Bryan asked.
“One of the richest man?” Steve asked.
“Don’t be surprised if I tell you that Rowen is his only child, so can you see Rowen can buy our generation?” Bryan asked.
“Oh, but why did he disguise?” Steve asked
. “I don’t know but you can try asking him when you see him, that’s if you have the opportunity to” Bryan replied.
“My only offense is trying to rape Emma I have a license for my gun, I wish I can turn back the hand of time” Steve replied.
“I warned you but you didn’t listen” Bryan replied.
“I’m deeply sorry” Steve replied. “It’s too late then be sorry” Bryan replied.
Back to Chicago
“Wow, Maxwell, to whom do I own this visit?” Mr. Hunt asked and hug Mr. Maxwell to himself.
“I came for something important” Mr. Maxwell replied.
“I knew it, you can’t come here without reason, let’s go to my study” Mr. Hunt replied and Maxwell nod his head.
“So what should I entertain you with?” Mr. Hunt asked.
“Nothing, for now, I need to go straight to the reason why I’m here” Mr. Maxwell replied.
“Okay,” Mr. Hunt replied and nod his head.
“Did you know any Alicia Kingsley?” Mr. Maxwell asked.
“That name ring a bell” Mr. Hunt replied and Mr. Maxwell brought out a picture.
“Oh, Alicia where’s she?” Mr. Hunt asked. “She knows more” Mr. Hunt replied.
“Gosh! So sad” Mr. Hunt replied looking at Brittany and Brittany look away immediately.
Looking at Mr. Hunt sitting in her front, Brittany discovered she’s a replica of Mr. Hunt. “This is her daughter,” Mr. Maxwell said.
“Oh, beautiful lady” Mr. Hunt replied.
“Sorry if I may ask, what’s the relationship between you and Alicia,” Mr. Maxwell asked.
Mrs. Hunt was passing by, at that time and she stopped on her track immediately she heard that question.
“Hmm, this question you asked made me remember what I regret doing in my life, Alicia used to be my mistress in Paris,” Mr. Hunt replied.
“Did she tell you she was pregnant for you before you guys broke up?” Mr. Maxwell asked.
“No she didn’t, she left when she discovered I was married I tried searching for her, but she was nowhere to be found.
It wasn’t entirely my fault, my wife didn’t give me rest of my mind when we newly married, that was one of the reasons why I dated and lied to Alicia, but I regretted ever cheating on my wife and I also regret lieing to a sweet soul like Alicia, I wish I can see her and apologize to her because she didn’t give me the chance to when she was alive” Mr. Hunt replied.
“She was pregnant with your child when she left, this is the child she left behind,” Mr. Maxwell said pointing to Brittany.
Mrs. Hunt wanted to open the door and rushed inside the study, but she stopped herself.
“My daughter? How did you know she’s my child, Alicia never told me she was pregnant with my child” Mr. Hunt replied.
“Here,” Mr. Maxwell said and pushed a file to him.
He goes through the file and opens his mouth in shock.
“Goodness!” Mr. Hunt said and look at Brittany’s face.
“I’m sorry for not being there for you, I never knew I have a child with Alicia I believe everything because I’m very sure Alicia can never lie to me, I’m very sorry,” Mr. Hunt said.
Mrs. Hunt open the door and walked inside the study angrily.
She slammed the door hard before clapping her hands together.
“Don’t tell me you wanna accept a bàstàrd into this house? Over my dead body, so you have the mind to cheat on me, Hunt? You have the mind?” Mrs. Hunt asked and burst into laughter.
