Eve's POV " I need to start a life afresh, I'ld come back new. I already told my P.A to book a flight and get my versa. I'm travelling. I'm leaving this country for the benefit of everyone" He told us then continue.. "I would leave my companies to your care Liam, Mark can work under the company if he wants; Eve too..and even Helen and Robert... probably when they are done with college. Liam I'm sorry I didn't bother about you since you were little even up to the time you graduated. I have failed as good father" He said. "Father, no don't repeat that" Mark said. " I owe you all alot yet I do not feel like I have done enough to show how sorry I am or to cover up my mistakes" He spoke slowly and looked at me. "Eve, request anything at all from me. I would grant them all, I honestly promise" Mr Maya said. I nodded slowly. "I..I contacted your father and wanted to make things up, I'm glad he has recovered, yet I wish to refund the settled bills" He added.. "I.. I was
Eve's POV With tears in his eyes, he blessed our relationship. He apologised a million times for everything he has done. Seriously, assuming he had s*x forcefully with me, his apology wouldn't solve anything at all. We left Mr Maya's place later in the evening, at least when everything was a little bit settled and cleared. And before we left the mansion, Mr Maya spoke to us as if we were never ever gonna see him forever. He shared his property and wealth, offered us reputable positions in his companies, told us that distance doesn't affect anything at all.. he said whenever we need help, we must not hesitate to let him know. And by the way, Liam and Mark weren't able to convince their father not to travel. Then boom one day, he took his flight and left the country. I hope he gets the clear hands and mind, new him.. Since that's what he wants, we would just left him be and escorted him to the airport. All of us; his sons, Robert, Helen and I. Another shocking news was that Ja
Eve's POV "One more year to get out of college and make this course serve as my side occupation" I sighed tiredly after lectures that day. "Same here, it's definitely gonna serve as a side occupation" Helen agreed with me. Yeah we already have a main job waiting for us out there. "Uhm, well... and as for me, it's gonna be my main occupation. Gosh I worked really hard for this" Janet said. "I'm so happy for you Janet, you would be a graduate in only few months time" I said and she smiled. Okay..so here in college, we usually stay together except if our partners are around though. We walked together and Helen sudden recieved a phone call and she exclaimed into the phone; "Really? What??" "Is something wrong?" I asked her when she ended the call. "Yes Eve..we have to get home quickly. Someone broke into our apartment" Helen told us. "What?" I exclaimed. I don't get why Janet do not look really surprised though, she also exclaimed 'What?' after me.
The wedding day. *Eve's POV Today is finally the D - day, I spoke to Liam over the phone; that morning; he said romantic and sweet words and wishes too. We just couldn't wait to see eachother soon. ** Even after the make over artist was done making me look like a queen; my friends still helped in restyling my hair and dress.. They were all over me. Soon, it was time to get out of the hotel and heed to the wedding hall. ** The car door was opened for me.. Woah! Everyone is here. Liam and I recent photoshoot were pasted everywhere, including in on a bill board. They yelled 'Congratulations' and took several pictures of me as I walked gently into the hall with Janet and Helen at my both sides, looking stunning as well. ** The bride arrival was announced, I sighted my father, he seemed to be the happiest. I took a deep sigh as I headed toward the alter where Liam already was. He was looking more handsome, yeah! that's my husband to be. Liam smiled at
Eve's POV I have never thought that all this would happen very quickly. Fine! I know that I would never be able to choose whatever I want by myself because of the kind of life I'm living - Poor background, wretched condition and I've just been managing to survive... but I didn't know that being not able to make a choice would also affect me to choose who to marry or when. My father usually say that only a man can decide who he wants to spend the rest of his life with when he's already not the other way round.. but it's definitely not true, we ladies can make decisions too. Ugh.. sad, sad because someone like me can't decide myself, It's sad because he doesn't even care about my feelings and he thinks whatever he says or whatever action he takes is the best for me whereas, sometimes it's not yet I have no other option than to grant his request. Despite the circumstances we've found ourselves in, I love my Dad very much, I usually heed to his advice because he has never failed me
Eve's POV I talked to my Dad perfunctorily when I got home, we didn't even discuss about Mr Maya, I acted as if I was cool with it. Of course, I was sort of rest assured after speaking with Janet that evening. Tomorrow, I'll make sure I let her know that I love the advice and I'm doing exactly what she said.. "Dad Here's Supper" I announced, showing him the food flask Janet gave to me. I guess we will have to manage it. "Eat dear. I'm fine" He said. "Why? Have you eaten anything? Remember you can't take drugs if you do not eat" "I'm satisfied. I've eaten" "What? I haven't cooked anything yet" "I ate out, I've spent the money he gave to me" I knew immediately that he was referring to Mr Maya.. That old man. Dad is just so wasteful, I felt like bombarding him with words but I just couldn't, he is still my lovely Dad.. I'll forgive him a million time for he doesn't know what he's doing. I fought back my tears, ate and think hard about my life, I didn't know when I doze off. **
Eve's POV We arrived at a mansion, and the gate keeper came to open the gate. Mr Maya drove in and finally packed his car at the carlot. Wow there are so many cars. He came down from the car first, was about to come and open the door for me but I did that quickly. "Welcome to my beloved house my princess" Mr Maya said but I gave him deaf ears and looked around. The house is big and fine indeed, it's even finer than Janet's house... I actually thought Janet house was the most expensive apartment. "Come on in" He led the way and took me into his house. "Whao!" I exclaimed. I couldn't hold it anymore. "Yeah babe, that's what I was expecting from you" He said smiling because I finally gave an exciting response. "This is huge and beautiful" I said looking around. "You are free to go round and check it out" He said.. I hesitated by trying to compose myself but I just couldn't hold the excitement. I ended up dropping my bag of clothes and walk around freely. Does he live alone i
Eve's POV "This is your room" Mr Maya took me upstairs later after his son, Liam left us in the living room. "My room is downstairs. Anytime" He patted my shoulder but I took his hand off me. "Don't worry about my son cold attitude towards you. You are safe here, he can't send you away. Moreso he is going back to his school tomorrow okay?" I nodded, collected the key to my room from him.. "I would like to be alone" I opened the door and locked it immediately without letting him come in to finish what he started in the living room. I sat on the floor and rested my back on the door. Yeah the room is nice too. It's exactly what I expected after seeing the living room and the outer part of the house. Unlike my other house, here there was a queen sized bed and the room was well furnished. Infact it's the kind of fancy room i've always wanted to have. But Money doesn't always bring happiness. I began to sob silently. So my Dad knows Mr Maya literally brought me here to always sa
