FATE のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

They were visiting!... That was all Sophia heard for her mind to go berserk. She was sat in her wheelchair in the kitchen, while Maureen went about making lunch for them. Stanley was at work. He had earlier left saying he was called in to be part of a major operation at the hospital. And Sophia cleaned up to return downstairs surprisingly she found Maureen busy in the kitchen ordering the house helps. While she was wondering what the occasion was, Maureen hollered at her to join her and in full spirit narrated how the previous day at the station went. Every bit became clear as she watched her stepmother bustled about cheerfully placing varieties of side dishes on the counter. Maureen wasn't one to cook on a daily but today was different and Sophia just realized why. The realization brought chills all over her. She wasn't ready to meet anyone in her depressed stat

  "Won't you tell me already why you've been hiding here for the past few days? Because I know you, Jason, these past few weeks you took me and our relationship for granted, and all of a sudden you're back like nothing happened" Charlotte queried. Jason was on the treadmill running laps with sweat dripping all over his fit body. He paid less attention to her knowing it got on her nerves really bad. "Do not give me that silence for an answer am talking to you Jason and as your girlfriend, I need an answer ASAP!!!" She jabbed her long-filed nails at his chest stopping him on his track. "Look char... Am in no mood for your banter, I thought you wanted me here with you? And now am here, you're disturbing." He walked off the mill and into their shared expensive room dabbing at his moist silky skin.Charlotte followed suit. "Yes you're here but half of you is here not all. Something is wrong and I can sense it, Sean isn't acting like

Everyone was here except him!... Sophia thought while they all sat in the magistrate's office waiting for the so-called groom to make his grand appearance. There was no need for a white wedding. Olivia insisted it wasn't necessary and Sophia didn't mind, she wasn't stable for the stress that came with it though. So they all arranged a mini court wedding and after the paperwork are signed everyone would converge at the Bestman mansion for an extravagant reception. Maureen already saw to it that the maids at home prepared assorted dishes for her guests. Her stepmother was more enthusiastic than the bride herself, she dressed in a peach Alexander Mac Quinn gown which barely covered her upper bosom. But unlike her, Olivia dressed in a simple carton color skirt and blouse and matched with a flowery hat and her red bottom heels. She looked quite exotic and still maintained her simplicity, unlike Mau

She woke up to murmuring, people were talking inaudibly in the hallway beside her door. Sophia thought it was happening in her late afternoon dream, but she woke and still heard two voices murmuring outside her door and one had masculinity to it. she wasn't expecting anyone, not Stan nor Maureen and her doctor was supposed to come in the early mornings. she sat up under the duvet to listen for a while. "Is she here already?" The male voice asked. "Yes_yes sir, she is but she's sleeping. you can meet her once she's awake, her doctor thinks_" The feminine voice was interrupted harshly. "I don't care what the doctor thinks, and I don't care to see her." Hisses. Sophia could hear footsteps retreating, and nothing. She didn't grab much from the little conversation but she guessed it was one of her maids. either Sabina or the other one whom she didn't know her name.But who she was talking to? She didn't know. But that was the least o

Maureen visited!.... Maureen stormed the house with her noisy nature and demanded the maids rush to the kitchen and prepare varieties for her. Claiming she was supposed to be treated as a very important guest because it was her daughter's home. And so the maids did as she commanded. Luckily Sophia had no therapy sessions. "Dear you look so well and younger, bet your husband is good with you" she tried to tease. Sophia barely smiled. "Welcome, how is the house-hunting going for you?." "It hasn't been easy dear, my friends and even my enemies now want to be helpful because they think I've got gold, and of course I have. it's not easy becoming in-laws with such a rich family." She bragged caressing her costly chain watch. Sophia noticed, Maureen was becoming very extravagant and wasn't sure where the money was from. "Sure."  "These girls you keep around are very incompetent. how long does it take to prepare a three-co
