All Chapters of THE SHAM BRIDE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

 ♠♠♠♠♠Two weeks after the incident occured, Matthew decided to get himself wrapped in his work, since being idle has done very little to nothing in helping him get over his predicament. Numerous times, Williams tried to approach him to get the truth of what happened, but to no avail. He finally gave up and let him be. He tried to talk some sense into him though, and it seemed that it worked because Matt listened to him and stopped sitting in the house-sulking all day. He has not replied to any of Doris' messages and she seemed to have gotten the hint, because she stopped calling him either. As much as he tried to pretend that he was getting over the pain, he always felt the hollow in his heart, always reminding him that his life had changed forever. He went through the day's activities at the office, as though he was remoted to do so. His personal assistant, Mike, had to make excuses on hi

Despite she felt her heart thumping harder in her chest, she tried as much as she could to put a smile across. Her mind wandered on how to handle the issue on ground while Mrs Udochi walked off into the kitchen, her son trailed behind. Mr Udochi made himself comfortable on one of the sofas and instructed Doris to put on a news channel for him. She knew the channel he watched most because that was all he did back then, when he was recuperating from the heart attack. After she left him, she worried on the best approach to tackle the matter and break their hearts. "They're here," she announced to her twin-who laid on the bed in the guest room-listening to music with her earphones plugged in. "Huh?" Dorine sat up and removed the earphones. "You said..?" Doris paced the room, her expression clouded in worry and unease. She felt arms around her, and loo

You had me intoxicated with your lies, and sober with your truths..." -Amyirechi ♠♠♠♠♠ Damian stood and watched quietly, from the balcony of his house, as the twins trudged in from the gate. Carrying their baggage behind. Dorine had called him on the day they checked out of the hotel. She used the hotel line to inform him of the change in plans, and he had promised that his guest house was open to them anytime. He did not hesitate to send the address and directions on how to get to the house, she immediately wrote it down and had headed back to the room to help her sister pack. Now, after being thrown out of the mansion, they were here. In the one place, Dorine never imagined she would ever live in, nor with the person. Doris, on her end, was reluctant to go ahead with her sister's decision

“Future is the best analyzer of the truth.. ” -Bishop K.K Degaya   ♠♠♠♠♠♠Forty minutes later, Dorine had gotten to get them to the hospital with the help of the taxi driver who was kind enough to endure all the stress. She encountered a short difficulty with the hospital procedures at the reception, but she received help as soon as the head nurse appeared. She paced the floors of the waiting area, her hands folded at her back. She looked worried and worked her lips nervously. After five minutes or more, two of the nurses attending to her sister emerged from the room. “What happened?” she rushed towards them, glancing back and forth at the two of them. “The head nurse is inside, she wants to see you” the darker nurse related. She watched as both nu

  •°•°•°•°°•°•° Three Years Later... Doris  POV “Mummy, I can't find my slippers...” Daniel whined again for the third time in one minute. I sighed softly and tried to keep my temper in check. These children would not lead me to my untimely end. “Have you checked your room properly?” I asked, knowing how lazy he could be whenever he's been instructed to do something. Especially, if that job was against his will. “Yes, and David too. We didn't see anything.” he passed a glance at his twin brother. I could drill the truth out of David if I wanted to. However, my older son was too softhearted and I did not want to put him in a tight spot where he had no choice but to either betray his brother and tell me the truth, or lie to me to protect his brother. I decided to giv
