She couldn't wait to see her child's tiny hands and feet.Tiffany took her designer handbag and left her house grinning from ear to ear. She felt that nothing could upset her today. Unbeknownst to her, a storm was brewing.After she left, Lily received a call from Tiffany's neighbour indicating that Tiffany had just left the house. Lily called one of her friends and asked him to meet her at Tiffany's house.She started packing Tiffany's clothes in suitcases when she arrived at the house. Then she gave her friend Tiffany's family home address. She had already arranged for the locksmith to change the locks on the doors.Lately, Lily had been so unhappy because Jamie had forgotten their agreement. Her aunt was blinded by Jamie's love, and she started ignoring her.Jamie thought he was the man of the hou

On Friday afternoon, Xavier and Avery were at their beach mansion. As the sun set, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, Avery sat on the balcony with her husband, feeding her a dessert.Xavier looked at his wife with eyes full of love and said, "I am so proud of you, my stunning wife, for what you have achieved. Your company will bring hope to people's lives and put food on their tables."Avery flashed her husband a beautiful smile and replied, "Thank you, my handsome husband, for your unconditional support. You are my rock, my dearest husband. Also, thank you for encouraging me to fulfill my dreams."Avery had hired graduates who were sitting at home with their degrees. After COVID-19, life was difficult. She also took Eric Duma's advice and hired Sean Swan as the company Director and Henry Gibbs as his Executive Secretary.On Avery's company opening day, the media were buzzing around trying to capture influential people. Ben, the reporter, had an exclusive interview with Mr T
Elizabeth and Jamie were celebrating their first anniversary. Elizabeth was in Jamie's arms, talking about their future and dreams, sipping an expensive wine slowly. Elizabeth had never been happy like that in her life.Her ex-husband, August, tried to make her happy, but because she didn't have any feelings for him, she always felt suffocated by his love. The love that she shared with Jamie was special, and nothing could separate them.For the past few days, Elizabeth had been under the weather. After her lover went to 'work', she asked Lily to drop her at the hospital. Lily looked at her aunt with concern in her eyes and asked, "What is wrong, Auntie?"Lily was really worried. Without her aunt, she wouldn't have a future. Aunt Elizabeth smiled faintly and replied, "Don't worry, your beautiful face, my niece. I just have the flu."Lily breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it wasn't something serious, and then she took her aunt to Taylor Private Hospital. Aunt Elizabeth told L

Three months later…At 16:45, Xavier and Avery were on their way home when Avery's phone started ringing. She furrowed her brows when she saw the caller ID.She put the phone on speaker and said, "Hello, Uncle Lambert. Are you looking for me?"Uncle Lambert replied, "I am sorry to disturb you, Avery. There was a fatal accident involving a truck and two taxis.I was told that the Paramedics were sending the injured people to our hospital. We need your help."Avery indicated that she would be there in ten minutes. Wayne made a U-turn, then he drove back to the hospital.Avery looked at her husband and said, "Honey, why don't you go to the apartment to rest? I think it is going to be a long night."Xavier took her in his arms and kissed her, then Wayne drove his boss to the apartment. He then asked one of the bodyguards to fetch him. He accompanied his boss until his colleague fetched him.Uncle Lambert provided the doctors with food while they were waiting for the patients. Forty people
Seven months later……Aiden had not made peace with his parents and sister yet. At work, he was professional and distant.One morning when he woke up, he couldn't shake the feeling that something bad would happen.He took his phone and unblocked his mother's number. Then he went to work. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his father. Even though he was still angry with his father for failing to fight for their marriage, he still loved him.After work, he decided to go to the old Martins mansion to see his mother. He parked the car in the driveway. Then he knocked on the door.His mother was dumbfounded when she saw her estranged son standing at the door. His mother looked at him viciously and asked, "What are you doing here, Aiden?"Aiden smiled faintly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes and replied, "This is my home, Mom. Relax, I am not here to fight with your young lover." Then he walked past his mother and went to his bedroom to rest.Elizabeth was tossing and turning, she cou
Aiden wished that he had listened to his late uncle when he warned him about his mother. He moved to his mother's mansion, but he didn't have money to buy food or to pay municipality rates.His mother was sitting with billions of rand in prison. The hatred towards his mother was deep. He was in that situation because of her.He had sent resumes to several companies, but they all turned him down. They cited that he was overqualified or too experienced.It was clear that they didn't hire him because they didn't want to offend the Martins Group and the Taylor Group.His life was so miserable that he wished that he were in prison. At least the prisoners had food.One day, Tiffany visited her mother-in-law, Mrs Bennet, in prison. She looked at her and said, "I would like to apologize for everything bad I have done to your family. Please find it in your heart to forgive me.I heard that Mrs Martins and Lily are in the same prison as you. They deceived me and caused you and your son to lose y
A week later, at the Taylor family mansion, Avery was in the nursery room with baby Axl nestled in her arms. She was looking at her son's cuteness with admiration.She was thanking the Lord for blessing her with her baby. She thanked Him for protecting them from the evil-hearted Elizabeth and her brother, Aiden.She was grateful to the Lord for the Taylor family, for the love they had deposited in her life. They were such an amazing, loving family. Finally, she thanked the Lord for blessing her with her father. He was such a good man.Avery didn't like to take her phone into the nursery room. She always left it with her husband or in their bedroom. Today was no exception. She spent time with her baby, praying over his life and blessing him.Her husband was in the study room with his Executive Secretary, Cole Knight. He was buried in a pile of documents.When Xavier was busy discussing company matters with his Executive Secretary, his wife's phone started ringing. He furrowed his beauti
The following day, Elizabeth hired a lawyer, Mr Saul Sharp. He was a middle-aged man and a good lawyer. He took this case to settle the scores against Mr Eric Duma.Unbeknownst to him, he was against the ruthless Taylor family. Later, when the prosecutor told him he would face the Taylor family legal team, his heart nearly stopped. It was career suicide. He was no match for Taylor's elite legal team.Mr Sharp went to the hospital to confront Miss Parker. He looked at his client, fuming with anger, and asked, "Why did you lie to me?" Elizabeth was taken aback and asked, "When did I ever lie to you, Mr Sharp?"A surge of anger rose in Mr Sharp's heart, and he asked, "Why didn't you tell me that it was the ruthless Taylor family who had pressed the charges?" Elizabeth was dumbfounded.She looked at her lawyer and explained, "I am truly sorry, Mr Sharp. It was not my intention to mislead you. I assumed that it was my ex-husband who pressed charges against me.Yesterday, after we discussed
Mr Martins immediately dialed his lawyer, Eric Duma's number. When it was connected he said, "Eric, please press charges against Aiden Martins.He falsely accused my daughter of murdering his mother's baby and of threatening my grandson's life."Eric was dumbfounded and replied, "I am currently at the police station. I will immediately press charges against Mr Martins.Please send me the address where the police could find him to arrest him, Sir." Then they hung up. Mr Martins sent Aiden's mansion address.Aiden was so scared he nearly peed on himself and said, "I am not lying, Dad. I have proof." When Aiden was talking to his mother he secretly recorded their conversation. He then sent the voice recording to his father.After his father had listened to the voice recording, he took his phone and dialed Dr Fowler's number. When it was connected he said, "Hello Dr Fowler, I need your help.My ex-wife is accusing my daughter of killing her child. Do you know when Elizabeth was pregnant?"
Elizabeth was plotting against Avery and her newborn baby. Since she couldn't do it herself, she would use Aiden to kill his sister's son.Unbeknownst to her, no one was allowed to enter Taylor's private wards without permission. Xavier's bodyguards were standing outside the lifts and the private ward, guarding young Mrs Taylor and Baby Axl.While Elizabeth was in deep thought, Aiden entered his mother's private ward smiling. He looked at his mother and said, "I am glad that your surgery was successful, Mom."Her mother's eyes lit up and said, "Thank you, Son, for saving my life. Where is Lily?" Aiden replied, "Lily is in police custody. Please don't be lenient to her, Mom. She deserves to pay for everything bad she has done to my family."His mother nodded her head and replied, "True. I will never let her go. I will make sure that she spends her whole life in prison."Aiden was satisfied with his mother's response and said, "Mom, you won't believe what Dad said to me. He asked me to t
Sage's eyes lit up when she saw her father. Xavier picked her up and kissed her on the cheek. He looked at her and asked, "How was school, baby?" Sage told her father that school was great.She smiled brightly and said, "Today, our class delivered a speech at the assembly in front of everyone. It was about 'Love'. I have learned that love is patient and unconditional.I felt it was a lie because my maternal grandmother and Aunt Valeria were never patient with me. They were so horrible. I nearly died in that mansion. Sometimes I still have nightmares at night."Her father felt heartache when he heard Sage's words. He ruffled his daughter's hair and replied, "I am glad they would never hurt you again, my dearest daughter.Sometimes I blame myself for allowing hatred and anger against the Moore family to cloud my judgment. I am still angry with your maternal grandfather for failing to do anything when they were starving you."Sage said in her maternal grandfather's defense, "Daddy, during
Xavier and Avery headed to the living room to talk to their elders. Their Grandpa was watching the news with their mother. Her mother-in-law's eyes lit up when she saw them.She smiled and asked, "Do you want anything to eat or drink?" Avery held her mother-in-law's arm and replied, "I am full, Mom. Thank you." Then she turned to her husband and asked, "Do you need anything, Honey?"Xavier shook his head, then they sat on the sofa. He looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I received a call from my father-in-law indicating that Aunt Elizabeth hurt her spinal cord when she fell from the first floor.He wanted to know if my wife would be able to help her without performing surgery. Avery indicated that she would be able to guide other doctors to perform the surgery while sitting in the gallery. What do you think, Grandpa?"Grandpa Taylor was still holding a grudge against Elizabeth for abandoning his precious granddaughter in love. He looked at his precious grandson and asked, "Wh
August hugged his beloved wife and replied, "I don't understand why Aiden is calling me instead of his mother. Didn't he disown me?" Then he took the phone from his wife's hand and switched it off. He hugged his lovely wife and fell asleep.Aiden tried several times to call his father, but it went straight to voicemail. He left the hospital and went home to sleep. He woke up at 7 am and took a quick shower. Then he went to the company to speak to his father.He entered his father's office without knocking and said, "Good morning, Dad. Lily pushed my mother, and she hurt her spinal cord badly. The attending doctor said….."His father was fuming with anger and roared, "Get out of my office." Aiden was taken aback and said, "But Dad..." His father interrupted him and replied, "I am not your father. Get out."Aiden had never seen his father so angry. He walked out of his father's office, but he didn't leave. He stood outside his father's office and waited for his father to calm down.Half
