ログイン“Have you lost your senses?” George glared at Hilton.“I haven’t. When you grant my request, I will consider visiting the chairman of Darnold enterprise. We have to return home now.” Hilton replied with a wide smile.Hilton and Wendy got into a taxi - the driver zoomed off.George and Caleb went inside and Betty read their expression. “I told you that disfigured son of yours won’t agree to this. Every day, I wished you never got entangled with his mother. He derives pleasure in making things difficult for us.” Betty stood Akimbo.“Mom, he wants his wife to become a shareholder in our family’s company.” Caleb said with a sober tone.“Impossible! Not when I am still alive.” Betty flared up. “I don’t know what exist between Hilton and Mr. Darnold but now it is high time Hilton dies.”“Betty!” George yelled, “Is that the solution you can think of?”Betty shrugged, “What? He almost got us into trouble years ago; we tried to discard him but here he is, as a torn in our flesh. It is better
Hilton wasn't shocked to hear Caleb's words. Wendy on the other hand was confused. She couldn't recall where she had met Caleb. Wendy stared at Hilton and said. “I don't think I have met him before. I …” Hilton placed his finger on her lips. “I know.” Seeing him touching her lips made Caleb flare up. He said, “Don't you remember the man you danced with at the club a few days ago? It was me. You deserve someone like me.” “Who cares?” Hilton asked curtly. “Of Cox we do. She got married to a disfigured man yet went clubbing. You both are not meant for each other.” Betty shook her head. “That's my point mom,” Caleb clapped, “I like her and I'm sure with time she'll fall in love with me. Hilton should divorce her.” “What, you must be out of your senses! How can you think of choosing a girl who insulted your Mom?” Betty snapped at Caleb. “Mom, she can always apologize.” Caleb mumbled. “Young boy,” Hilton pointed to Caleb. “It seems you have a death wish. Because I am disfigured doe
Hilton ensured his mask fit properly before walking out of the ward with Theo beside him.“Is everything fine, doctor?” Wendy questioned the moment Hilton and Theo approached her.“He is better,” Theo replied with a smile.“What about his medication?” she asked curiously.“That won’t be necessary now. What he needs is rest and proper diet.” Theo replied with a broad smile.Wendy appreciated him for helping them out without collecting a dime. Theo headed to his office.“We’ll return home now.” Wendy said.“We have to be somewhere,” Hilton said, itching his head.Wendy gazed at him with her expression saying; ‘if not home where else.’“My father’s family. I didn’t want you to see them but they are persisting.” Hilton said, leading the way out of the hospital.“It is not a big deal. Let’s make it snappy so that you can return home to rest,” Wendy said.***At Julius MansionWendy and Hiton arrived outside the mansion at exactly two o’clock in the afternoon.Hilton was about to press the
When Wendy arrived home, she found Hilton lying down flat on the couch.“Is your condition severe? I don't have much money now but you need to see a doctor as fast as possible.” Wendy uttered as she placed her hands around his neck to check his temperature. “I have valid health insurance.”“Alright. I once met someone who is a doctor. He said whenever I need his services, I should visit Swift hospital.” Hilton uttered with a shaky voice, feigning weariness.“Do you know his name?” She asked.“Theo is his name,” Hilton replied calmly.Wendy went inside to keep her bag and pick her health insurance card - in case it was needed.Before she returned, Hilton sent a message to Theo.‘Soon, I will be at your hospital with my wife. Don't mess up.’‘Fuck off.’ Theo replied with a laughing emoji attached to the message.***When they arrived at Swift Hospital, Wendy held Hilton's hand and led him to the counter.She didn't know if Theo was the owner of the hospital or a random doctor who visits
Wendy wondered if Hilton was fine, it hasn’t been long since she left the house.“I am at the office, are you fine? Do you need anything?” Wendy spoke softly.“I am curious to know the man you were talking to earlier.” Hilton spoke.“Huh?!” She exclaimed. Wendy was shocked, never did she expect that her husband also comes around Darnold enterprise for alms.“The truth is that I was with Jason, my ex. He spoke to me about something.” She explained.“What did he tell you? Do you want to go back to him? Did he ask you to divorce me?” Hilton questioned.“Not really,” She uttered. “I can’t go back to him after all he did to me. You don’t have to worry about him. Let’s pretend that he doesn’t exist.”“If you say so,” he replied and hung up.Hilton doubted that Wendy won’t consider divorcing him if Jason wants her back. He decided to believe her words pending when life unfolds.“Is he jealous because he saw me with Jason? I don’t think so, after all, our union is just a façade.” Wendy asked
At Hilton's apartment.“Why did you snatch my phone from me?” Wendy said with an unreadable expression.“Excuse you, I just defended you, yet you are ungrateful. I was just curious to know who was speaking to you when you said ‘kill me’.”“Why do you care?” Wendy asked as she washed the dishes. “Didn't you call me your enemy yesterday?”Haha Hilton laughed and moved close to Wendy.“That man is my enemy and I'm not joking.” Hilton suddenly wore a serious tone.“I promise, I don't know who that man is.” Wendy said truthfully.“I believe you.” Hilton uttered as he tucked the hair on her face behind her ear.Wendy was shocked by his act but she covered it up with a smile.She couldn't look at Hilton's eyes. Wendy felt shivers all over body.She attempted to walk away only for Hilton to wrap one of his hands around her waist and stared at her.“Is this a scene in a romantic movie?” Wendy said within her.Despite his scary scars, Wendy felt secured within his grasp.Her heart beat doubled
The atmosphere was unusually quiet and cold. Wendy wallowed in her thoughts, mumbling a lot of things.“Could it be that the strange man knows that I am married to Hilton and he wanted to take me as a prey to get to my husband?”“Is it possible that Hilton had offended the man?”She didn't know how
Hilton was seated while Wendy placed a call and had the phone glued to her ear.“Let's hangout. I will forward the address to you.” She said and hung up.Hilton had his attention fixed on Wendy. Something within him wanted to ask who she wanted to hangout with but he couldn't bring himself to ask.
Meanwhile, Hilton visited Julius mansion at about eight o' clock in the evening.The mansion was beautifully decorated with the lights illuminating every part of the house. Taking each step, he observed everything that was happening; from those walking about to those exchanging pleasantries.A mid
Seeing that no one would save her at the moment, Pearl went on her knees and apologized to Wendy.“I am sorry.”Wendy remained indifferent. If it were before, she would be sympathetic that Pearl was about to lose her job.Wendy hissed and returned to her desk.“Pearl deserves that punishment.”“I h
