He was watching a TV series while munching on popcorn, oblivious to the maids who couldn't help but steal glances at his muscular physique. A sudden ringtone broke the tranquility, and Christopher groaned. He initially ignored the ringing phone but reached for it after it's continuous disturbance. "Hello!", he answered, his voice muffled by the popcorn in his mouth, with eyes still glued to the TV screen. A childish voice on the other end caught him off guard. “Hello......I want to speak to Uncle Shawn!”. Christopher's eyes widen in surprise. “When did we have a niece I don’t know of? Or could it be......?”, he thought as he hastily got up and rushed to Shawn's study, phone in one hand and the popcorn on the other. Shawn was looking through the blueprints for a new project when Christopher barged into his study r
It was two days since they left the hospital, and Georgina was totally fine, well, aside the memory loss part, Eleana tried telling her some good things about her fatherly moments but whenever it was brought up Georgina would have a banging headache that she had no other choice but to let go of the matter temporarily. In any way, it was for the best, there were few happy moments with Dane and all that was before Isabelle was born. “Aunty Gabby, what are you cooking?”, Isabelle asked as she skipped to the kitchen, following the aroma that was assaulting her nostrils. Stirring what was in the pot with a spatula, Gabriella used her other hand to pat Isabelle on the head. “Be good little Belle, you shouldn’t play in the kitchen. Now off you go.” “But I want to know what you are cooking", Isabelle said, refusing to leave until she was told what is in the pot. “Okay, I am cooking a native food called Egu, my grandmother taught me....” “Hmm, it smells delicious...Aunty Gabby, where is m
The warm afternoon sun cast a golden glow over the bustling street as Eleana walked towars the cafe across the street. Her ocean blue dress fluttering in the gentle breeze. She clutched Isabelle tightly, her eyes fixed on the cafe ahead where her lawyer was already waiting for her. "Sorry I'm late, my daughter had a brain scan and I had to be there", she apologized. Standing up the lawyer, Mark, stretched out his hands for a handshake which Eleana took. "There is no need to apologize, your child's health should come first", lawyer Mark said as he gestured for her to take a sit. Eleana sat in the chair opposite the lawyer, and placed Isabelle on the one close to her. "Thank you... I knew Dane will contest the divorce, I just didn't expect him to do so this soon, that's the reason I contacted you yesterday." Mark nodded understandably. "From someone of Mr Dane's stature, immediate response is likely. I've reviewed your case and we need to discuss our strategy on moving forward, but
As they left the hospital, the sun had dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the city. The stars were beginning to twinkle in the night sky, and the rear lights of passing cars cast a reddish hue on the pavement. Christopher spotted his brother's car, parked at the entrance of the hospital building, he jogged over to it and hopped into the front seat. Shawn started driving, and they sat in silence for a few moments, the evening sounds ringing in their ears; the cars horns, the road traders trying to advertise their products as they scampered to any car slowing down, the shout and arguement of some drunken men by the road, a typical evening in the city of Stonefall. "Hey Second brother", Christopher said, breaking the silence, "I thought you had an important project to oversee today?", "Andrew is handling it", Shawn replied, his eyes fixed on the road. "Hmmm....That makes sense, it's just that dad made it sound as if it was an S-rank or A-rank project." "A-
Christopher grabbed his brother's hand, concern etched on his face. "Hold on brother! You're leaving the kids alone?", Shawn shrugged him off and took out his phone, showing Christopher the recent message from George. "She is awake and well, so you can leave now. She'll join her children in a moment". Christopher nodded understanding. "Alright. Em...Big bro.....", Christopher began as he moved closer to his brother. "No!", Shawn replied adamantly.. Feeling aggrieved, Christopher hit his brother lightly. "Why are you disagreeing without hearing what I'm about to say?" "No you cannot come to my house Christopher, you will be a nuisance ", Shawn stated. "Right!", Christopher face fell, but he agreed, walking out the door with Shawn following behind. After moving a safe distance from Shawn Christopher called out, "Hey, big bro! I just remembered, how do you think mom will react if she sees this picture?", Christopher lightly threatened as he waved his phone in the air, a sly
"I'm pregnant......and it's Dane's", she whispered. Gabriella was too stunned to say anything, she couldn't think of anything to say much less how to say it.. "You're pregnant? For Dane?", she repeated, unsure of what to think about it. "Yeah! My confusion was by far more complex than yours when George informed me...... At first I thought I fainted due to exhaustion and stress, then George brought the results, then I found out it's because I've been eating less lately and the child absorbing most of it, the nourishment wasn't enough to sustain me and the last fight I had with Dane...... It's a miracle that the baby survived", she explained relieving the moment of anguish. She didn't know what to feel, should she be angry, sad or happy about this baby.....her baby, it was all a pile jumbled feelings threatening to swallow her whole and it still might, if she doesn't thread on this dangerous path carefully. "How far gone are you? And.....are.... are you keeping it?", Gabriella want
Chapter 23: What Did The Result Say? AT STARLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT: Gabriella sorted through a pile of scripts, searching for the perfect role for the new actress recently signed under her. "This is impossible", she thought slumping over the desk in exhaustion. " I have only worked with B-rank artists and above, what was the boss thinking assigning me a D-rank artist", all the roles she found required a matured look or were too dangerous, and this artist was far from being mature, her baby face was too obvious and the boss specifically told her not to choose any dangerous role for the artist. "Argggg!", she exclaimed, her chest rising and falling as she breathed heavily, her lips protruding and her jaw clenched in anger. "He did this purposely!", she thought, her mind racing with resentment. Just then, her office door opened and she snapped her head up, furious at who dared to enter without knocking. Christopher Dele, her boss and Shawn's brother, strutted in, looking dashing
Isabelle was given a task by her elder sister, she was to act as a spy and deliver information to her boss. Georgina was growing impatient, craning her neck to glance at her little sister Isabelle, who was intently eavesdropping on the adults' conversation. "Come on baby Isabelle, what are they saying?". Isabelle turned around, her big brown eyes sparkling with a mixture of excitement and confusion. "Shushh!! Sister Ginny you are distracting me", she whispered her chubby little fingers pressed against her thin lips. Gerogina nodded and chuckled which made her blue eyes twinkle."Your spy time is over baby Isabelle, tell me what you heard", she said in a soft but firm tone. Isabelle turned around at looked at her sister with questioning eyes. "The spy time is over?", she asked blinking her gorgeous brown eyes ."Yes it is. So.....What were they saying?". Isabelle moved away from the door, her little legs moving quickly as she scurried over to Georgina's beside and climbed on the ch
Shawn was at a construction site when he heard his phone beep. It was a message from George, ever since the accident he has been calling and texting George frequently so he has a special sound notification for it. The message read; "SOS!!!! Your little angel dad is here and by the mother's expression she doesn't want him anywhere near them, you think you can come?", he wanted to ignore the message seeing as their family issues is none of his concern when he got another text; "I forgot to add, your little angel is awake and she called me handsome!! Hehe", that got Shawn's attention. "She is awake", he thought, but he has to supervise the construction taking place as it is a very delicate deal... After hesitating for a while he finally concluded--no, I should go see her--he concurred as her angelic face appeared in his mind rendering his resolve useless. He dialed Andrew's number, "Come to the A-rank construction site and take over supervising for me", he said and after Andrew r
