Thank you for reading...
Mr Thompson and his wife exchanged glances as they were silent from Mr and Mrs Gilbert. "Where is Adam? I am fully aware that this dinner was organized because of Lily and Adam, so why is he not here?." Mr Thompson yelled angrily. "Don't worry he will be here soon. Actually, we sent him on an errand so he would be here soon. Let's go to the dinning and start eating, he will join us." Mr Gilbert said with a forced smile. "Alright, let's go to the dining table then". Mrs Thompson supported, she faced Lily..."Baby, don't worry, I know he will be here soon." She comforted Lily who was about speaking up. "Thank God they believed us, now we have to keep lying till we leave this place." Mr Gilbert thought with a smirk displaying on his face. Mrs Thompson led the way to the dining table, Mr Thompson wasn't satisfied with his reply at all. "We will stay here until he comes back. He needs to be here before we do anything here." He suddenly said." They stopped and turned. "Thompson, I have
Adam sighed after saying those words in his mind..."I don't wanna cause any more trouble tonight but she is provoking me with those stupid questions. Gosh, I feel like gagging her mouth with something that will make her shut up for ever." He thought inwardly. Lily saw that he didn't respond to her, then she took her hand into his hand. Adam felt a touch on his hand, lowered his head only to see Lily's hands in his. "Lily, please let us eat". Adam pleaded in a forced cool voice. He tried as much as possible to speak to her calmly. "I am not disturbing you, I didn't stop you from eating either." She snapped with a wink. "She thinks she is smart enough to make me a fool, then she is totally wrong." He muttered with a smirk on his face. Adam looked at the conjoined hands once again, then he jerked his hand off her grip, that action threw her hand back and it got the table hardly. "Ouch." She groaned in pain as she swung the infected fingers. "Baby, what happened to your hand". Mrs T
Adam walked to the car with a victorious smile on his face. He remembered everything and started laughing. "I should have done that before but now it is also cool." He muttered. Mr and Mrs Gilbert walked to where he was standing. "What was the meaning of what you did back there? You knew what he could do but you still went ahead to say all those words without thinking twice. Your sudden behavior is not good at all, I don't know what to do about it anymore." Mrs Gilbert shouted and rolled her eyes at him. "Thank your stars that he was in a good mood, if not he would have done something bad to you." Mr Gilbert said with a sigh, he moved to the car, opened it and entered. Mrs Gilbert rolled her eyes once again before joining him in the car. "Why are they being too dramatic, after all l only answered the questions I was asked." He scoffed, walked towards the car and went in. "Drive." Mr Gilbert instructed, immediately the driver ignited the engine and drove off, there was silence for
Anthony sat on the bed, resting his back and head on the headboard. He has his phone on his two palms, he fixed his eyes on the phone, all his concentration was on it.Sonia opened the door and walked in with a tray in her hands. He didn't want to go for dinner so he instructed her to bring his food to his room. Sonia walked in fully and stood by his side and placed the tray gently on the bedside stool, he didn't notice her at all as he was deeply engrossed in the phone."Sir, I have brought your food and all the necessary things." Sonia spoke up with a calm voice."Okay, you can place it on the bed." He instructed and placed his phone on the bed gently then Sonia picked up the tray from the stool and dropped it on the bed."What else should I get for you?." She asked standing uprightly."You forgot to come with a napkin, so go and get it right now and also bring a bottle of chilled red wine for me." He ordered, Sonia nodded and bowed."I don't need your nod." He corrected in a cool v
The car honked loudly but nobody opened the door, the car honked repeatedly but there was no answer. "What is happening here? Go and check the gateman inside." Mrs Gilbert instructed and the driver nodded, went out and opened the gate with his keys. He saw the gateman running out of his apartment in great speed. "What were you doing inside, I have been honking for a very long time." The driver scolded. "I am sorry, I was about to take my bath when I heard the honks, so I had to dress up before running out." The gateman explained. "You don't have to explain to me, Madam is very angry right now, I don't know what she would do right now. Anyways, open the gate and await your punishment." The driver said and walked out. "I pray she doesn't sack me, I know she won't, it is not as if today will be the first time I would open the gate late." He scoffed and ran to the gate. He opened it widely, the car was driven in, when the car finally got to a stop. The gateman rushed to the car. He he
Mr Gilbert and Adam walked through the busy street. They haven't spoken to each other ever since they have been walking. "How will I start a conversation with him right now? Mum didn't give it a second thought before saying those words. I wonder how he would be feeling now?." Adam thought and took a glance at his Dad, Mr Gilbert tilted his neck to Adam all of a sudden and saw Adam staring at him. He stopped walking immediately and faced him properly, Adam also stop walking. "I am sorry for dragging you into this mess, I should have faced it alone. I hope the cold is not too much for you?." "Dad, you don't have to worry about me, I am fine and okay. Then about Mum, I am very sorry for everything she said to you, I know she said it out of anger. Please forgive her." Adam pleaded. "I know your Mum was too harsh but it is fine but you caused everything that happened back there. You never listen to any body. Tell me what caused all this things because I know you weren't like this?."
Mrs Gilbert settled down on the seat behind her, Anthony sat beside her."I hope all this will end soon, I am tired of everything." She thought.Andrew came out of the elevator and saw his Mum. He has a shopping bag hanging on his left hand."Thank God, she was the one I saw while going out." Andrew thought, then he walked closer to them."Are they still operating on her?." He asked, Anthony and Mrs Gilbert tilted their heads to where the voice was coming from."No, they are still in there." Anthony replied in a faint voice."Alright, Mum, who told you what happened? And where is Dad and Adam?." Andrew asked, Mrs Gilbert was surprised and shocked."Wow, this is wonderful, I never believed you could speak up like that." Mrs Gilbert said in awe."I asked a question here and not a compliment." Andrew snapped and faced Anthony, Anthony spoke up before he could say a word."You have no right to shun Mum like that." Anthony scolded."I know you will support her, you are mummy's pet of cours
Finally the security men separated them. Some people already brought out their phones to take videos of them. Anthony stood up first and looked around then he saw then, he didn't flinch a bit. He used his left hand to wipe off the blood at the corners of his lips. "Put down your phones and cameras right now and make sure you delete the videos. If you want to keep the videos and send them to the press or post on social media and I find out who it was then, I will destroy the little dignity and integrity the person has. I am not trying to scare anyone, but that is what I will do to that person." Anthony warned, the people started murmuring and put down their phone, then they started walking away. "Anthony, you don't have to fight your brother, you just have to overlook him, you know how unreasonable he is." Mrs Gilbert scolded him a little, and started wiping off his blood with her handkerchief. "What is wrong with you Sofia, two of our sons fought and all you could do is to take sid
