Mom didnt say another word for a while, she just stood there, arms crossed as she looked at me and wondered if she should really say what was on her mind or if that would throw me over the edge.

She cleared her throat and then said, "I took care of the problem and erased it."

She didnt even need to say another word for me to know the truth, and the truth pissed me off.

"You did what?" I asked, eyes narrowing as my brain wanted to explode with anger. I knew my mother could be cruel but I have never imagined that she would go to that length just to destroy something that I had cared about so deeply.

My mother, capable of murder? It was something I couldn't believe even in a thousand years but yet somehow, it was the same thing I had come to see as being my reality.

"Don't look at me like that okay. You were being bewitched by that devil. You had no idea what you were doing, you needed to be free and you needed to rest. What you needed at that time was focus, you didnt need some rec

  • The Forgotten Bride   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN

    The raindrops on the roof was all the sound Micah needed to sleep like a baby in his room. Before I could finish cleaning up to go tuck him into bed, he was already sleeping so soundly and I smiled at the sight of it. When I came back out, Steven was sitting on my couch with a bottle of wine on the center table. "I figured you may need a listening ear at this time." I did need someone to listen to me but I still wasn't sure that Steven was the right person for me to be talking to about this. After all, we both had an history that I was trying to run away from. But the company looked nice and so I walked towards the couch as I heaved a sighed and slumped into the chair."Shouldn't you be resting and trying to sort out your injury?" I asked him as he poured a glass of wine for me and I took it with a soft smile. "I have already been to the hospital and I can assure you, they cant anything more for me. All I want to do now is to wait for the wounds to heal. Though they did give me som

    When I got back home, Steven was standing beside my door, his face swollen and he was limbing. I could not believe Liam had done this to me. Liam looked like a very calm person, but it was now clear to me that he was only calm when I or my son was in the picture. To everyone else, he had become a tyrant and I could not help but wonder why he changed so much or if he had always been like that and I wasnt just so vigilant enough to see it. But in my defence, I had not known him outside the four walls that we usually stayed in together. I had not seen him interact with other people and all I could really do was wonder if this was how it was meant to be. If he was always like that. I didnt allow such thoughts to cloud my judgement. I just opened my door and went straight to Micah’s room to drop him. "Okay, baby. You need to do your homework now, brush your teeth and come down for dinner, okay?" I told him. "What about the nice man we met today? Won't he also be joining us for dinner m

    I could see Liam’s expectant eyes as he looked at me with so much anticipation. The things he said resonated deeply with me and for a long time, all I wanted to do was to show him how much I appreciated his words but still, something didnt feel right. "Can I go to my son now?" I asked, making it seem like I have not considered anything that he just said when in reality, everything he said was all I could even think about. Still, I could not give him that satisfaction that he so longed for. "You havent said anything to me about what I just said," he spoke, eager to know if his words had managed to change my mind but I was not going to give him the satisfaction of an answer. "I just want to hold my son. Surely that isn't a crime and you cant actually keep the boy away from me, so how about you just slightly move from the way so I can do what needs to be done." I said and that was all it took to get him to move. I rushed to Micah’s side and ran my hands along the side of his face, ch

    The next morning, I called Steven into my room. I had to tell him to be extra careful with my son today. "Steven, come in," From the look on his face, I could tell that he was probably expecting something different. I could not believe that he still hasnt gotten over his crush especially after he had seen the mess that was going on in my life. It felt surreal to actually have someone still want you that much after they knew almost everything about you. But I guess the same could be said for Liam, so maybe I was not as bad as I thought I was. "Ma, is everything okay?" Steven asked as he tried to touch me. I moved silently from his path, not wanting to give him any kind of ideas that would make him positive that something could ever happen between us. "Steven, I have told you severally that I am your employer and because of that, you cannot act the way that you do. Its just not right and proper." I told him again and he nodded his head slowly before he moved few steps away from me.

    I had to do something drastic. I knew if I didnt, then I was not going to get rid of Liam. "Liam, you say you love me right? If you truly do, then please let this slide. Leave my son and I alone. We are used to being on our own. I have a system that works for this boy. If you come in now with your own system, you may just ruined everything. The boy is not used to another person playing the role of a parent." "He will learn," Liam said before I could even finish the sentence. "Are you not listening to what I am saying? This boy life is going to be turned upside down. I am telling you the truth, this thing you are gunning for is only going to ruin his life and if you truly care about him, then I will advise that you stop this madness this instant." His line went mute and for a while, I thought he had ended the call. I was about to speak when I heard him heave a sigh on the other end, so I knew he was still there. I didnt say anything else to him, all I wished was that he was conside

    I didnt get enough time to process what had just happened before my phone rang again. This time, it was Liam calling my phone and my heart beat faster than it did before. I didnt know why he was calling but I was sure it was not to tell me that he doesnt want to fight me on this anymore. That young man wanted a war and he was going to get one if he didnt stop disturbing my life. I was already unstable from the information that I just discovered about him and his family and I knew I could not stomach talking to him at the moment. I ignored the call, hoping that he wont call back but luck was not on my side because he called back with more intensity than before. I saw the call and text he sent telling me to pick up and still, I ignored him. Then he called the third time and I sighed, hesitated and then picked up. It was obvious that he was not going to stop anytime soon and I needed to do something to help myself not go crazy from his rampant calls. When I picked up, his voice was ic
