Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her

Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along

Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and

Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili

Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus

Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli

MARKEverything that had happened in the last couple of hours continued to plague my thoughts. Ivy had lied to me, and I had been stupid enough to let the one woman who stood with me and nurtured me back to health instead.I really wished now that I could turn back the hands of time. I would have stopped that divorce by every means possible. Now it dawned on me why I could only get aroused by Alexa Silver. It was like that with her because she was the only one my body was connected to when it was shut down in coma. Everyone around me had lied. They all knew, yet they had allowed me to live in lies for years! Doctor Jones knew; maybe he should be the one to get arrested first. Vector, the one person I thought was my best friend also knew, but he decided to take Ivy’s side. All along, I had thought that he had a fond likeness for Alexa, which was why all the years that we were married, he never had any ill thing to say about her. Yet, he had also lied to me.Ivy’s deception had been t

ALEXAReturning to my office seemed like a horrible idea, because I could not stop being agitated. Fortunately, my assistant didn’t have any more bad news for me, so I simply asked her to change the door sign to close and close for the day.He knows now; what next is going to happen?Or maybe I might be the one over-thinking things or overreacting. Mark had never cared about me, not even after I nursed him back to good health and stayed by his side for years. No, he never cared. Most men would have already known that I was hopelessly in love with him by then, but Mark Ronaldo, because he was still in love with Ivy, was too blind to see.Why else would I accept to marry him in the blink of an eye? Why would I still stay even after Ivy returned and tried to get him back? Even if I had taken care of him when he was in coma, I should have left the moment he woke up, but I didn’t. It had been for devotion, but every other sacrifice I had made wasn’t.It was for love.I continued to pace ab

IVY“I just want to hide my head in shame, mum,” I said to my mum as I buried my face in my hand. “We have worked so hard to get here, and now I have ruined everything,” I sobbed deeply.She stayed quiet, as she would usually do most times, and her silence always spoke the loudest volumes, because I knew without a doubt that she was already plotting something, which was why I was always confident to run to her for everything.She always had solutions to every single problem.After I left Mark’s ward at the hospital, I had realized that I made a terrible mistake by revealing Alexa’s feelings for him, but then again, I had been in the most agitated state, not knowing what to do and the words had just come out.It had saved me from that confrontation, but I had ruined things in the process.“Mark is going to call off the engagement; I am sure of it,” I continued when she remained quiet. “Maybe I could have found something else to say, but at that time, I was too nervous to think of somet

MARK“Everyone knows that Alexa has been madly in love with you from the very first day she set her eyes on you, way before we even met.”The words still kept ringing in my head even as I arrived back at my mansion in good health. It was as though I was hearing the love word for the first time.Alexa was in love with me before now? Did she know me before I arrived at Mr. Silver’s house that fateful day?I didn’t get any answer to all the many questions that were flying through my head, majorly because after Ivy stormed out, I was too stunned to have said anything. Then Alexa had turned and walked out too.It had been a brief moment of emotions for me, especially, and before I could come out of it and ask Alexa about what Ivy said, I was told that she had already left. Now I was back at my house, strong and better, but with confusion in my head.There was also the revelation that Doctor Jones revealed to me, which was intense, and that too, I did not get answers to it. Ivy ensured that

ALEXAMark’s question, although directed at Ivy, made me stop right where I was. My heart thundered loudly as I stood by the door and watched, waiting to listen for what Ivy’s response would be.Right after Noelle left, Ivy showed up and hurried past me to Mark’s ward and I had followed her immediately, trying to stop her, without even knowing how she got wing of the situation.Ivy was also frozen where she stood.The doctor seemed tense too.The only person that wasn’t in a tight situation, or wasn’t tense was Mark. He was furious, and it made me deeply worried, because I hadn’t seen him like that before.“Have you lost your tongue?” Mark asked, his brow corking and demanding an answer from Ivy.From Ivy’s standing position, I could still see Mark clearly.Ivy remained quiet and Mark grew increasingly upset.“I have just asked you a question, Ivy,” Mark demanded harshly.“What’s wrong?” Ivy managed to ask. I couldn’t see her face because she was backing me and facing Mark, but I cou

MARK“Doctor Jones, I need answers right now,” I demanded firmly.I always suspected that something wasn’t just adding up, but no one seemed to be saying anything to me. Each time I asked Vector or talked to him about it, he always acted in a way that made me suspect that he was hiding something, but since I couldn’t get hold of it, I always let it slide.Now, I was determined not to.“You are my doctor and you are obligated to tell me everything that I need to know,” I declared firmly.When Doctor Jones looked at me again, his eyes were normal and neutral.“Listen, I think I will just write a new list and get you discharged. If you stick to you, this will not have to repeat itself again,” Doctor Jones said.There was something in his voice that told me that he was lying to me, or maybe hiding something. That thing had left his eyes and was now in his voice. As Doctor Jones turned to leave, I knew that he was trying to escape me, but I didn’t let him, so I held his hand firmly.“You d
