DELANY

Next Day, 8:00am

“You’ll still keep working?” I heard Nathaniel’s voice behind me. I zipped my bag and slowly turned to look at him.

“Yeah, I know my father really wanted me to be more, I won’t seat back for Emily to do whatever she likes anymore,” I said to him. He tucked his hands into his pocket and nodded slowly.

“You look really good” he whispered but loud enough for me to hear what he said. I narrowed by brows and moved my head backwards subtly. That’s weird, I can’t even lie. I can say categorically that this was the first time he was complimenting my looks and we have seen each other a couple of times. We used to be very close as kids, we used to bond over being the forgotten one, but after he travelled abroad and got back, we just did not click anymore. Almost like we both have become very different people.

Maybe I did look good, compared to my normal bland and untasteful appearance, Living with Adrian for a year sure made me look older than my age.

    DELANY OUTSIDE OF THE COURT “You did great,” the attorney said to me with a small smile and I nodded gratefully. We were standing by Nathaniel’s car. He ended up picking me at the office and driving me here. “Thank you,” I responded.“Alright, I should get going now. I’ll have your marriage certificate dispatched to you,” he said and I nodded again.“That’s no problem, thank you Scott,” Nathaniel said to him and he smiled in response.“I was just doing my job,” he said and with one final nod, he turned and walked away. Just then I saw my family and his, step out of the court also. Without missing a beat, I stepped forward and wrapped my hands around Nathaniel in a tight hug. His body tensed up at first but he seemed to notice the reason I did what I did and he gently wrapped his hands around me tighter. “Thank you,” I whispered against his chest and he chuckled lightly.“What for?!” He asked in a whisper as we slowly disengaged and he placed a soft kiss on my forehead. My stomach

    DELANY NEXT DAY 8:30am, Hospital. I squeezed the napkin out of a bowl of warm water as gently dabbed it on my mother’s body. I came in when the nurse wanted to clean her up, I just asked her to let me do it. Six months before now, my mother was diagnosed with End stage renal disease. She had almost no symptoms of kidney failure until it was damaged beyond repair. I donated one of my kidneys to her but she almost didnt survive the damages it had done to her. She fell into coma immediately after the surgery. In my previous life they said she wasn’t responding to treatments and her organs were failing so she had to be put on life support, she was on life support for eight months and that Eight months, Emily made sure to torment my life for every payment she made to keep my mother alive. They hadn’t moved her to life support yet, which is why I’m still able to afford the bills. I really just want to move her out of here as soon as possible, I have every reason to believe they sabot

    DELANYLATER THAT DAY, 2:30pm A small knock came on my door. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head. If it was possible to get a restraining order inside of company premises I would have gotten one, because I was tired of seeing Emily and Lenny walk into my office at intervals to threaten me into going back to being just a normal worker in my father’s company. The door slowly went open after three consecutive knocks and I saw Uncle Conrad walk in, I swallowed my words and slowly got up to my feet. His lips spread into a wide smile and I tried as much as I could to respond with a smile, even if it wasn’t as wide as his. “Delany!” He called as he approached me, I cleared my throat and bowed slightly. “It’s so good to see you uncle,” I said to him as I gestured to the visitor’s chair in front of my table, he gently pulled it out and took his seat and I took my seat after him. Uncle Conrad is my father’s younger brother. He was not the heir to DTI group ; Davenport Technology and i

    NATHANIEL Later that night “I don’t think Delany will be able to take over the company” Nolan said to me. I was seated by by the small study desk I had in my room, I was on a conference call with Nolan and my lead streategist, Paul. “She’s supposedly the one you have an affair with, so stepping down for her to step up is not a good plan. It won’t improve the company’s image,” Paul continued, I just stared at them, my mind constantly replying the conversation I had with Delany earlier. She has been avoiding me ever since, why does she seem so cold. “Sir, what do you think?!” I heard Paul ask. I blinked slowly and turned to his video frame.“I’m sorry, come again I didn’t get that,” I said to him. Nolan raised his brows at me, but Paul nodded politely and proceeded to repeat what he said. “My suggestion is to bring in someone who isn’t in any way affiliated with the company presently. I came up with a list of very efficient business men that can take over for time being, while you

    DELANY “You shouldn’t have allowed that!” Nathaniel said as soon as he walked into the living room and slammed the door shut behind him.“You shouldn’t have let him lay a finger on you!” I gently tapped the nurse treating my bruises and signalled to her to give us space. She got up with a small nod and walked away towards the veranda.“But it’s good for us, at least people are starting to believe my words” I said to him as I got up to my feet. “So you had to get yourself beaten up just for people to believe you?” He snapped lowly. He stepped forward grabbed my cheeks softly and checked frantically as if searching for hidden scars. “See how battered you look. What if it was more than this,” he snorted and I could tell he was doing everything to not speak at the top of his voice.“Look, Nathaniel I’m fine,” I muttered as I gently removed myself from his grip and stepped backwards.“I’ve told you this before. I’ll do everything possible to make sure that Adrian and His cohort don’t ge
