Chapter 55
Angelina woke up groggily, groaning softly, mumbling harmless curses under her breath as a loud yawn escaped her lips and her stomach rumbled.
She didn't remember when she fell asleep and how she got to the bed, she closed her eyes, trying to remember a brief thing, and abruptly, her eyes flew open as she stared at Nathaniel's worried face.
Her father and her best friend!.
She looked from Nathaniel to everyone who was looking at her guilty except her father and Bell who weren't in the room, she cocked her head as heartbeat, "You know?". She asked slowly before she jumped to conclusions.
"Yeah" Nathaniel dragged slowly, not looking at her, she turned to look and saw they were staring at the floor, nodding meekly.&nbs
NB:1. Belle and Angelina aren't step sisters and both Richard and bell have not incest relationship because I've stated it in chapter 6 when Nicholas took Angelina to her apartment. Belle Called Nicholas by her surname, "Davis" while Nicholas also called her, "yuko". And also in chapter 16,Belle talked to Angelina about her family. Kindly go back to the referenced chapters.2. There's nothing wrong with Bell and Richard's relationship, it is awesome. I love it. It's an age gap thingy 😉, there's no problem with it. It's not compulsory to read their story.3. This book and the other series are messed up. I mean really fucked up family….4. Nicholas has his own book, I can talk about Nicholas' story in Nathaniel… it's different.Thank you for reading ♥.___***"__Chapter 56Angelina hissed slightly, feeling the baby kick her stomach as she patted it slowly, she was breathing h

It was like a dream granted true. Small yet cozy place.3:00 am*Knock*The banging on the door never ceased to stop as the wife groaned, muttering harmless curses under her breath.Angelina was a light sleeper, she rubbed her eyes, resting her back on the headrest as a yawn escaped her lips. She shook Nathaniel awake as he mumbled incoherent word
Epilogue "Arabella Aramide Hugh Dé Luca!" Angelina screamed, getting out of the master bedroom with Jasmine's hair and a towel wrapped around her body firmly like a second skin. The aftermath shower water, trailed down her body as she carefully walked on the tiled floor. She didn't hear her daughter's voice which meant her daughter was doing something mischievous again. "Mama" her daughter - Arabella or Ara (which in her local dialect means 'wonder') sauntered out of the backyard with her white gown stained with dirt, her hands, and legs drenched in mud. "Oh my God," Angelina exclaimed, rubbing her temples. Double work for her, she had bathed and dressed her daughter up to get ready but now everything was messy. "What were you doing in the garden?" Angeli
Epilogue 2 Angelina felt giddy like a new bride as she descended from the stairs, her eyes met Nathanial’s smoldering black eyes as her breath hitch like a schoolgirl meeting her crush in the hallway. Her heart beating lub dub lub as she walked carefully on the stairs on a miss a step on her way down. Her heart staggered a little when Nathanial graced her with a charming smile that stole her breath away and made her fall for him every moment. His Angelina was an epitome of beauty, her graceful steps through the steps were slow in his eyes, he just wanted to hold her and never release her again. She walked elegantly in her blue off-shoulder gown which stopped at her knees, showing her thick brown legs.His only.
Bonus 1"Mama.""Yes dear," Angelina turned her gaze to her daughter as she caressed her hair, braiding the tip."I have a question…" Arabella furrowed her brows in confusion, staring at Richard who was doting on his wife to Belle, who was holding the new baby."What is it dear?" Angelina asked, tickling her daughter as she giggled excitedly."Is Aunty Bell my aunt or my grandmother?" Arabella asked, looking from a shocked Bell to a dumbfounded Richard."Ara…," Angelina dragged softly, already rubbing her temples. should she praise her child for being a brilliant, witty kid or blame her sarcastic gene of hers?"You always said I should ask you anything I don't understand that you'll explain to me," she pouted, staring at her with gleaming eyes. "Mama, you said best friends don't keep secrets from each other and you are my best friend." she grinned cheekily, using the best friend's card on Angelina while she sighed.“Ara mii,” Angelina called softly, pecking her daughter's forehead ador
Bonus 2 “Nng!” Her husband sometimes behaved like a new groom. Nathaniel fumbled with his belt, and his hands were shaky as his breathing came out in short pants. Angelina giggled heartily. She bit her lower lip sensually, winking at him while Nathaniel gulped, staring at her hungrily. Like a starving man looking at a delicious meal yet couldn't touch it. “You are so naughty,'' Angelina's soft and teasing giggle rang in his head. He didn't know what to do! Today was one of the days for him to be embarrassed. They were cosplaying, with him being the naughty student and Angelina being the teacher. How did they get to this cosplay? His mom being his mom, brought out his embarrassing school days album; he was still wondering how she got it because he was 100% sure that he had hidden it well, except if his father snitched on him. Fuck! His album piqued Angelina's interest, and she innocently asked Jasmine - Nathaniel’s mom, if his uniform was still available. Without knowing what was
'No sooner met but they looked, no sooner looked but they loved, no sooner loved but they sighed, no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason, no sooner knew the reason, but they sought the remedy; and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage.’William Shakespeare.Prologue"Do you take Angelina Adenike Walters as your lawful wife?" the minister asked."I do," he replied curtly, looking at nothing in particular as his eyes void any emotions he was feeling.The minister turned to the bride and asked, "do you take Nathaniel Xander Hugh as your lawful husband?" her heart skipped a little, staring at her unresponsive husband to face before responding in a crooked voice, "I do.""With the power of God, I declare both of you as husband and wife. You may kiss your bride," the minister pronounced.Her stranger husband moved to her slowly, opened her white veil a little as he tilted his head to the right side, and she closed her eyes expectantly, waiting for his
Chapter 1People always say first love is a lesson, but last love is true love, and Nathaniel did not believe it because his first and last love was Clara Adrian.His only woman.Clara was the granddaughter of his nanny, Mrs Adrian. He and Clara practically grew up together from diapers, and they went to the same schools. And they'd promised to get married when they grow up till old together with their child(ren).She was mine, and I was hers only. He thought, smiling widely while twirling the diamond ring.All his reasons and actions revolved around her.
