Madiana tried her best to stay awake but she failed miserably.
Lawrence had called her early this morning to inform her that he would be returning today but it would be later at night.
So she had spent her day with Luis. She took him to the mall and when it was noon, they went to the park together.
It was just a few minutes to 10 pm and she had slept off.
.................................
Lawrence could not wait to see Luis and Maddie. He had missed them like crazy. He did all he could to rush the deal so he would be back home tonight instead of tomorrow, Monday.
He took a taxi from the airport. It was already late and he didn't want to disturb Dominic, his driver.
He paid the Taxi man and proceeded to the apartment with his suitcase. He had his spare key so he didn't bother to press the doorbell. He entered inside and his heart melted at what he saw.
Madiana had fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room. The TV was still on
FOUR YEARS LATEREPILOGUELawrence and Madiana's marriage faced trials but their love was able to overcome all obstacles.Some days after Madiana found out she was pregnant, She went for a check-up which revealed she was almost two months pregnant, and in seven months, she gave birth to a baby girl. She was called Luisa Irene Williams. 5 pounds, 6ounces.Luisa's birth brought so much joy to both the extended and immediate family.Lawrence had to find a temporary secretary to fill in for Madiana.Lawrence also spent more time working from home so he could assist Maddie with the kids and be closer to his family.Oh, their wedding! They did it a month after he proposed. It was a very beautiful one.Lawrence and Madiana never saw the need to hire a live-in nanny because Maddie and Lawrence's mother were there to help and they still had Luis's nanny, Kelly.Again they had help from Omo, Lenora, and Luciana. Even Lucas was of
Connected by heart.Synopsis.They have always been secret admirers since the first day their path crossed. It took the two of them just one night to confess their feelings to each other, after which they decided to quench their sexual thirst, creating a bond that binds them forever..............."Look at me, Gabriela. Why have you been avoiding me?" Terrence asked her with his eyes showing so many emotions that Gabby couldn't even take in at once.Even though Terrence was the one hosting the office party, he had found a way to ditch the party as he told his best friend, Ian, to help take over. Ian, knowing the reason why, gladly decided to cover up for him and all.The truth was that Terrence had a thing for Gabriela since the first day he saw her and that was the day she set her foot in his company which was two months ago and since then, he couldn't stop thinking about her. Her face was all he could see in his dreams for the p
"Hmmm, p..lea..se exc..use me." Gabby managed to say as she quickly stood up from the dining table and ran off to Terrence's room which unshed tears.Immediately she shut the door behind her, she fell on the floor and let the tears fall. "How could I be so stupid? How could I let history repeat itself? How could I let myself be used by another man?" She cried.After what seemed like hours, Gabby managed to grab herself from the floor, proceeded to the bathroom to splash water on her face after which she changed her clothe from Terrence's shirt which she was putting on to the dress she wore the previous night.After getting all dressed up, Gabby decided she wasn't ready to face Terrence and his daughter and most importantly the Beautiful lady whom she assumed was Terrence's Wife. Thinking of another way to escape, She finally found another exit beside the guest room. She got out of Terrence's house, hailed a Taxi, and headed home..
Sunday went pretty fast with Terrence spending the day with his daughter, Sophie. After which he took her to the park to play with other kids. But his mind was still divided as he kept on thinking about Gabriela. She still hadn't returned any of his calls or messages and that made him more worried. He even thought of going to her house to check up on her but later thought that was not a good idea. Therefore, he decided to talk to her when he gets to the office on Monday........................."Be good, okay?" Terrence told Sophie as they both walked towards her preschool."I will Daddy. Just like always." Sophie smiled.Terrence crouched to her height and kissed her forehead."I love you, Daddy," Sophie kissed his right cheek in return before she ran off to her class.With a smile on Terrence's face, he rose to his feet and headed to the car. His four-year-old daughter was pretty smart for her age. Well, thanks to all the cart
SIX WEEKS LATERGabby woke up with the immediate need to throw up. She jumped from her bed and walked as fast as her legs could carry her to the bathroom. She emptied the contents of her stomach in the toilet. Feeling very weak after all, Gabby decided to sit on the floor to regain her lost energy and after feeling a little bit okay. She rose to her feet, brushed her teeth, and had her bath. If today was a weekend, She would have gotten back to bed to rest some more. But unfortunately, She had to be at work in a couple of minutes.This was how Gabby has been feeling for the past five days. She often feels nauseous and being a coffee lover, she found it very strange that even the smell of coffee makes her feel uncomfortable. Being someone who was always health-conscious, Gabby had set an appointment with her doctor which she would be meeting later on today.Satisfied with how she looked, Gabriela reached for her handbag, car keys, and exited the room.
"Tell me it's a lie, Isabelle," Debbie said in disbelief."I wish I could, Debbie. I just hope Gabby changes her mind. I don't blame her, everything is just so unexpected and I just hope she makes the right decision.""If only my brother hadn't been an ass hole to her" Debbie grumbled which earned a chuckle from Isabelle."Perhaps, you should talk to Terrence. He might be able to convince Gabby to keep the baby. That's if he's sure the baby is his.""Yeah, I will talk to him" Debbie replied sadly after which they both went back to work......................"Hi, Sis" Terrence greeted as he took a seat opposite his sister. Debbie had called him earlier on, requesting to see him at the coffee shop opposite his office by 3 pm."So, what's up with this sudden meeting?" He asked."What's going on with You and Gabby? I don't understand Terry.""Here we go again," he muttered."
"Good morning, Mr Tennon." Michelle, Sophie's 22-year-old nanny, greeted as soon as she saw Terrence descending from the stairs; all dressed up for work."Morning," Terrence replied."Morning Daddy!" Sophie yelled as she continued to eat her breakfast on the dining table."Your breakfast is ready" Michelle informed Terrence."Thanks, I'm not hungry."She noticed something was wrong with her Boss; He came back from work yesterday in a sour mood and refused to have dinner.Terrence took a seat on the couch close to the door and reached for his laptop to get some work done, using that to while away time as he waited for Sophie to finish her breakfast.As soon as Sophie was done with her breakfast, Michelle helped her wash and dry her hands after which she helped Sophie in putting on her backpack."Bye Michelle, I'm going to miss you," Sophie said."Bye sweetheart, I will miss you too. Be good a
"Everything will be fine honey, we are in this together" Terrence assured and placed a kiss on Gabby's forehead.As promised, he accompanied her for the checkup and they were both waiting in the reception until it was Gabby's turn to be called in. Gabby was so grateful he had accompanied her as she could not imagine going through this alone. She was anxious and scared at the same time.Shortly, a nurse approached Gabby and told her that Doctor Isabelle was ready to see her in the ultrasound room. Terrence and Gabby walked hand in hand as if their lives depended on it."Hey! look who we have here," Isabelle stated as the soon-to-be parents stepped into the ultrasound room."Good morning, Isabelle," Gabby replied as Isabelle approached her and gave her a warm hug."Morning Bella" Terrence greeted, she hugged him too."I'm so happy you decided to keep the baby and I couldn't be happier seeing the both of you together."
