"Look, James it's just a little favour. I really need this" Paul said to his friend over the phone.

He had decided that he would do whatever it takes to make Celine marry Mr Smith's grandson. So he had called a doctor friend of his to request for a favour.

"What you're asking me to do is against my Ethics and you know I swore and oath before I was given my license" Dr James had said over the phone to Paul.

Paul wanted a fake test result from James. The paper was to state that he had cancer and that he needed to undergo series of chemotherapy as soon as possible.

"Please James! For the sake of our friendship" Paul begged.

He and James went way back to elementary school. They have been best of friends for as long as they could remember. Even when James went to Med school and Paul to Business School, they never lost contact of each other.

"It's only for a short while, it'll be over before you even realize and the document will be destroyed without traces" Paul promised.

James could sense the desperation in his friends voice. He knew Paul would keep asking until he agreed, so he decided to give in to his request.

"Okay, fine when will you come for it?" He asked.

Paul sighed in relief, he knew he could always count on his friend.

"Thank you so much James, I owe you one." He appreciated

"Yes you do!"

Celine's father went to the hospital his friend worked at later that afternoon to get the 'test results'. He had planned to use to results to trick Celine into getting married. He knew that his daughter had a very big heart and also had a sacrificing heart.

Knowing he wasn't in an healthy situation was something that could trigger her into making decisions she wouldn't make on a normal day.

After getting the results, Paul found his way to his daughter's dormitory. She didn't go to school from home but instead stayed in the school's dormitory. Paul had only been there once, that is, on the day he went to drop her off at the School as a Freshman.

He found her room easily and knocked. Celine's roommate answered the door.

"Good morning sir" the girl greeted.

"Good morning, is Celine home?" He asked as the girl let him in and offered him a seat.

"No, she has classes but should be back in about an hour" She replied.

Paul waited for about and hour till Celine returned. That gave him enough time to practice how he was going to 'break the news' to his daughter. He even put on a dull outlook like someone mourning a loss.

Celine got back from class and saw her father waiting for her in her room.

"Dad? What are you doing here?" She asked surprised to see her dad. He usually asked her to come home whenever he wanted to have a conversation with her.

"Is there a problem?" She asked as her didn't respond to her first question. Paul bowed his head like someone ashamed to face his daughter. He passed her test results with his head still facing down.

She took the piece of paper from him and read it. It seemed like her world had crumbled. Her dad was the only one she had and now cancer wanted to take him away from her? She couldn't let that happen especially not when there was something she could do.

She couldn't do anything to help her mother but right now she was willing to do everything within her power to make sure her father defeats cancer.

"Oh Dad!" She cried as she bent to console him.

Paul had also managed to fake tears.

"Don't cry! We'll sort it out.. you're going to undergo chemotherapy, you'll be fine Dad!" She consoled.

"Celine, chemotherapy is expensive..we already have enough debts on our neck. There's no way we can even afford it." Paul said in between sniffles.

Celine understood what her father meant, the money they made all went into settling most of their debts and they weren't even halfway done with paying off the debts yet.

"I'll find a way" She assured.

Celine went home with her dad that night. She helped him make dinner and kept his company while assuring him that everything was going to work out.

Paul knew deep down that his plan worked. He felt so sad that he had te tell a lie this huge to convince her. Even though she hadn't told him yet, he knew she would by the next morning.

Celine went into her room after ensuring her dad was sound asleep. She let the tears she had been struggling to keep in flow freely. She could not let her dad suffer at the hands of a deadly disease like cancer.

She didn't have any options at all, well except one which was to get married. Every one she talked about it to seemed to think it was a good idea. I mean look at what Zack had to say, Her dad too wasn't against the idea.

At the moment, her opinion didn't matter right at the moment all that mattered was that she was willing to do anything to be able to afford her father's chemotherapy.

She finally decided to get married to the rich man's grandson. She picked her phone to search for what the man she was getting married to looked like on G****e.

The images g****e brought back were surprising.

It was the guy from the Cafe the other night. The handsome blue eyed customer with a livid temper.

She knew she found him attractive but does she really want to marry him? He came off as rude too, could she handle his moods. He seemed like someone who was in a bad mood a lot of times.

Except when he was partying, from the pictures on the net, Celine classified Xavier as a party freak.

'who on earth parties all day of the week?' she asked herself.

She concluded that it was because he was rich.....

What the didn't tell Celine was that, the blue eyed customer with a livid temper also owned and personally funded the orphanage at which she loved to work at...

Xavier kept that part of his life a secret because he didn't want the media in his business. The publicity wasn't what he needed.

Celine had one other thing on her mind too

"Does Xavier consent to this arranged marriage?"

  • YES I DO?   Happy First Wedding Anniversary

She had gone for casual yet classy looks.She got them both a pair of white cargo pants each and specially customized hoodies, hers read "Mrs" and his read "Mr". They would accessorize their o

  • YES I DO?   Xavi, You're home

    "Come home soon, i miss you 💓" Celine's text read. Xavier smiled when the screen of his phone lit up with that text. He was on him way home, later than usual. He knew she was going to be asleep by the time he got home. His wife was an early bird. She always went to bed early and woke up early. Her body clock never skips or misses it's scheduled and even at times when he came home late and she tried waiting uo for him to come back he usually met her asleep in the living room with the lights on and the TV playing in the background. This was one of the reasons he adjusted his schedule to make sure he mostly went home before her bedtime. He would always try his possible best to make sure he kissed her goodnight before she went to bed. But tonight wasn't one of those nights thanks to Zack's mischievous acts.Thinking back to Zack, Xavier's anger returned. He would have done worse than cut off his fingers before handing him off to the government, but he didn't because he knew Celine wouldn

  • YES I DO?   Come home soon, I miss you 💓

    "You should have told me about the letters," Xavier said, his voice low and angry. "I could have done something to protect you and the baby. Why didn't you tell me?" Celine stood silently, her head bowed, unable to meet her husband's eyes. She knew he was right - she should have told him. But she had been afraid of what he might do if he knew the truth."I'm sorry," Celine said, her voice trembling, Xavier had never been angry at her for this long, so why now? "I know I should have told you. I was just...afraid. Afraid of what you might do, and afraid of what might happen to you if you got involved." She took a deep breath, and looked up at her husband, her eyes pleading. "I'm so sorry, I just...I was scared." Xavier's expression softened, and he reached out to take his wife's hand. "I understand," he said. "I can't promise I won't be angry, but I promise I won't do anything rash." The tension between them has eased a bit, but there's still a lot to talk about. Celine speaks first,

  • YES I DO?   It wasn't your fault

    Zack kept hitting the car window signaling to Celine to open it. "You have nowhere else to run to" he screamed from outside.Celine could feel her anger boiling at this point, why was he after her life so bad... what was it that she owed him that he tortured her so much with his existence. Picking her phone from her car's dashboard, she hurriedly dialed Xavier's number. Zack sensed that she was calling for help so he brought out a hammer from his pocket and started hitting the car window with it. "Come out of the car, Celine" he said while hitting the window, there was a crack on the window and he kept hitting.Xavier picked up the call as soon as it went through "Celine?".. he called from the other end of the line, he could hear her breathing heavily from her end of the line, he stood abruptly from the end of the desk where he sat, the meeting needed to stop, his wife needed him. "What is it?" He was beginning to hear the sound of glass smashing. "Where are you?"Celine was aware th

    "I'm pregnant?..." Celine asked, eyes wide opened in shock…she couldn't believe she was going to be a mom very soon."Yes baby…we are having a baby…" Xavier responded, holding her tighter."This is the best news ever!!"Celine's joy knew no bounds, she was finally living the life she had always dreamed of, she could imagine seeing her kid smiling into her eyes….she squealed at the thought."I'm so happy for us Celine…"Xavier started to say "But we might have a little problem" He said, bursting the bubble.Celine signed as her shoulders sunk down, she knew what the problem was, it was Zack. She was beginning to wonder just how foolish and naive she must have been to have been in love with him once upon a time. How come she didn't see all his red flags. He was so sweet when they were together until things went sour and he became an alcoholic."You must have seen the news too.." she told her husband. "He wouldn't dare come near me." Celine said, half mindedly, she knew that what she said
