Marvin's pov,

“What is going on here?”.

I turned to the owner of the voice and inwardly smirked when I saw it was her. Doctor Gina.

As always, she had the signature mask on her face. Did she seriously think she could fool me for long with her tactics?

“What is going on, Clara? Care to explain?”. She asked again, with her brows furrowing as her eyes landed on me, before they shifted to the young lady who was holding onto me.

“Oh, you are back so soon?”. The lady, Clara, said, before she star

    “Let go of me right now, Lily. Allow me to put this trash in his place!”. I declared. I knew my Mom said ‘no cuss words’. But, I just could not help it. Neither could I get myself to calm down. “Please, Lewis. Mom isn't going to be happy about this”. “This is our first day of school. Do you want our Mom to change her mind and make us stay back at the boring estate with Aunt Maddie and Clara?”.My face changed a bit sour upon listening to what Lily said to me. “You see?”. She let go of my hand and pointed a finger directly at my face as she said to me. She continued to say to me, “... I know you don't want that”. I sighed in defeat because she was right about that. “You are always so soft. When are you ever going to grow thick skin, sister?”. I asked her as I slightly shook my head at her. Because of her, I finally calmed down and did not plan on hitting the jerk. Yet. “Ah”. Philip groaned on the floor. “He- help me up! Can't you see that I am in pain?!”. He yelled, and in a hur

    “Isn't this great news, Gina?”. Clara asked me, and judging by the tone of her voice, I could tell just how happy she was. I remained quiet, and even after the doors to the elevator opened up, I remained standing still for a few seconds, before I actually got out of the elevator. “Well, why aren't you saying anything?”. She asked me. “Oh. Nothing. I am just happy for you, Clara”. I replied to her, but I still found the news very shocking. I soon arrived inside my office and went to sit on the sofa. “Is there anything else you want to tell me?”. I asked her. “Huh. Something else? Like what?”. She asked me. “Oh. Then, I am sure you don't mind me hanging up the call”. I said. “Wait-!”. Clara tried to say, but I had hung up the call on her and left my cell phone aside on the sofa. Then my hand reached out, and my fingers massaged my temple.“He is her new boyfriend?”. I said. The words sounded foreign in my lips. I sighed and rose from the sofa. I went ahead to stand next to t

    “Get up. I did not ask you to kneel down before me”. I tried to help him back to his feet, but he was hell-bent stubborn on kneeling down, as he continued to plead with me and even went as far as bowing before me.“No. There is no need for me to get up if you are not going to accept my request, Doctor Gina”.“Please. You must help me save my daughter's life. She is the only family I have got”. He pleaded with me, and after I saw some tears landing on the floor, I paused and did not try to help him up anymore. I sighed and turned away from him, before I bit my lower lip and clenched my fist.To think that he had been pushed to this miserable point because he did not have the money to treat his daughter, thus making her life hang by a thread.‘Carlos, you bastard. It wasn't enough that you stole my mother's company, and now, you have the audacity to treat her loyal employee poorly?’. I almost let out a sinister chuckle because I knew that what was coming for him was going to be way wor

  • The Naive Lady Is Gone: No Longer The Docile Fool   Chapter 64) Feeling guilty.

    “A date?”. I was stunned. “Yes. So, call me back later. Bye”. She said to me. Her voice sounded like a whisper, and it also sounded like she was in a hurry to cut me off. “Wait! Who are you on a date wi-”. I did not get to finish asking her my question, because my cell phone beeped. It turned out that she had hung up the call on me. I frowned and dialed her phone number. But, she was not picking up. “On a date?”. I muttered, as I tried to understand the gravity of her words. It was shocking to me that, out of the blue, she had someone to date. “Clara. You will never change”. I shook my head and decided not to think much about her, because I knew she would eventually tell me the unlucky one who was her date. I sighed, before I kept my cell phone aside and rested my head on the seat. Some minutes later, I sat up. “I will take it from here, guys. You can come down from the sienna”. My words made the bodyguard in charge of driving the sienna, park the sienna off the road. Then, a

    “Nothing. I mean nothing, Mrs Mirabel. But, I would have to decline”. I said to her without a smile on my face. “But-”. “I am certain I came here for my kids' registration and not for something else. Are you trying to force me?”. I asked her with darkened eyes. “No. Not at all”. She said with a chuckle, but I knew it was a forced chuckle. She was not happy that I had refused her. But did I care about her feelings? Not even a single bit or in the slightest. I cared nothing about how she was feeling. A knock was suddenly heard on the door, making everyone turn in the direction of the door. “Come in!”. Mrs Mirabel said to the person, causing the door to swing open, and a young lady walked in holding some files in her hands. She went ahead to Mrs Mirabel and gave her the files. “Here is what you asked for, Mrs Mirabel. The registration files”. After handing over the files, she turned to me and her eyes sparkled. “Doctor Gina, can you please sign my book?”. She cam

    “Oh my. What a big surprise to meet you here, Doctor Gina”. Claire rose from her seat as she said to me. She came and stood in front of me, with little Jamari standing by her side. “Mom, isn't this the nice doctor from your birthday? She isn't covering her face again”. Jamari said with a bright smile on her face.I truly hated to smile, but I didn't want to frown at an innocent child. That would be very low and childish of me. “Jamari, right?”. I asked her, and she nodded at me happily, while looking like it was a big deal that I had remembered her name. Though, I would say, her reaction was quite adorable. I squatted next to her. “You are so adorable, sweetie. I love your hair”. I said softly, as I ran my fingers through her soft blonde hair. ‘It’s truly a blessing that you look nothing like this bitch of a mother. You should be glad that you look quite a lot like your Dad’. I thought to myself as I maintained the small smile on my lips. I suddenly rose to my feet.“Nice to me

I had enough and lifted my palm, making my men stop beating the chained man. I handed the newspaper to one of my men, before I fixed my gaze on
