Chapter 41; Seth’s deductions
Eileen sized Nina from head to toe before extending her hand to receive the handshake Nina had offered. She quickly withdrew her hand and faked a smile and Nina found her behavior rather strange and so did Cecily. To Eileen, Nina was a plain Jane, too plain to be married to someone as charming as Cody. The only make up she had on was her lip gloss, she was naturally good looking though, she had to give her credit for that. “Does mum, know you’re in here?” Cecily asked breaking the silence.“No, please don’t tell her else she’ll kill me” Nina replied.The conversation piqued Eileen’s interest, did Cody’s mother not like Nina? She really hoped so but what she heard next watered her down. “Nina she’s doing this for your own good, you know how much she cares for you” Cecily said. “I really wanted to see him, it hasn’t affected me in anyway and being with him now has lifted my spirits” Cecily smiled and went to hug her and Nina seized the opportunity to whisper in her ears.“Cody held

Chapter 42; Catching the culprit
Tia run her hands lovingly through Cody’s hair as a tear dropped from her eye.“Dear sir please wake up, you’ve been lying here for 2 and half months, that’s so unlike you” she sniffed and wiped her tears.“I told God to help you wake up, I pray for you everyday, Mr. Whyte please wake up for me”She took his hand and kissed it and then looked at his face, his eyes slowly opened and met hers. Her mouth dropped open in surprise. “Master Cody you’re awake!” She exclaimed and tried to ring the bell for a doctor but Cody tightened his grip on her hand.She stared at him confused “don’t you want me to get you a doctor?” She asked with concern.Cody shook his head in response before closing his eyes again. Rosa was on night duty and was loafing around the accident and emergency ward when she heard that Cody’s condition was becoming stable. She had persuaded the head of that ward to assign her to Cody but her request had still not been granted. She wanted to be there the very moment he ope

Super excited about her night duty she went straight home to get some rest and prepare for the night. At 10pm on the dot Rosa arrived at the ward and introduced herself to Tia and Cara who were in Cody’s ward.“My name is Rosa, I’ll be attending to Mr. Whyte from time to time, feel free to call me if you notice anything unusual or if you need any assistance” “Well noted” Cara responded with a smile. She smiled back and left the ward, as soon as she left Tia turned to Cara angrily.“What is Mr. Coleman up to? I told him that lady was suspicious and he allowed her to attend to the master” Tia complained.“Really?” Cara asked inquisitively.“Yes, last night she sneaked in and mocked the master” Tia said.“She did what? I need to see Seth” s

Chapter 44; The donor
Back at Eileen’s penthouse she partied and shared wine with Robin and Benjy while Eileen kept to non-alcoholic wine the rest drunk to their fill. They made toasts and dined. Robin’s phone beeped and beeped, yet he was too busy partying to even notice.“I was so scared at a certain point, I thought you’d go to jail” Eileen confessed.“Lawyer MacCauly is the best lawyer in town, ask Benjy he’ll tell you, he could even help you get away with murder” Robin bragged.“Ah really?” Eileen remarked as an evil smile spread across her lips. “So if I break into a house and steal a painting he can help me get away with burglary?” “Oh God not the painting again” Benjy cried.“You thought I was going to let it go? Benjy you should know me” Eileen laughed. “I like you miss Aikens, there’s nothing more sexy than a woman who goes after what she wants” Robin complimented her and she instantly felt flattered. She smiled sheepishly.“Robin you do know how to flatter a woman, your cousin has a lot to le

45; The sanhedrin
At the conference hall Rosa was called to give an explanation for her actions, all she did was lie and lie, Dr. Colbert who had slowly recovered from the incident just sat there shaking his head. There was nothing he could do to save her even if he tried. She had dared harm the son of the hospital’s biggest shareholder. What the hell was she thinking? Being the head of the department he felt responsible for the actions and inactions of those assigned to him. To make matters worse she was lying to people who had studied psychology, psychiatry and all the things that had to do with the human mind. He buried his head in shame. It was decided that Rosa was guilty of intentionally causing harm to a patient and also being involved intimately with a patient, since it was against hospital rules to date patients and Cody had come for a check up with his wife when Rosa met him and got involved with him. She was stripped of her license to ever practice in the medical field again.She changed in

Nina made for the office with her protruding tummy leading the way. She stepped into her father’s office and sat down panting heavily.“Nina, why are you here?” Her dad asked when she sat down. He was concerned about her because she had started to fall sick again during the sixth month of the pregnancy and had been asked to rest again. “Dad, I came to request for a long leave, this is my letter” she said placing her letter on the desk.“But couldn’t we have discussed that at home? You could’ve have just called me, instead of putting yourself at risk” Mr. Story lamented. “There was nothing risky about getting here dad, I came from the hospital and decided to pass by and seek permission properly, the doctors think it’s time to allow Cody come home, Cody’s mum thinks he should come to their home but I think we should just go back to our house” Nina said. Mr. Story frowned.“But honey, you’re also not well you can’t take care of him either” he protested.“We’re bringing in a caretaker

47; A scorned woman
Eileen was almost asleep when a call startled her. She grudgingly answered the call.“Open the door” a familiar voice shouted at her from the other end of the line. She quickly went to open the door and Robin stormed in. She gulped and closed the door.“I see you’re in here enjoying you sleep peacefully, while my sister lies in a hospital undergoing another surgery, do you know how much pain she’s in at the moment? Can you give a good reason why I shouldn’t kill you right now?” Robin yelled.Eileen gulped in fear, she was alone at home if he killed her he could easily get away with it.“Can you give me a good reason not to kill you?” He barked again.“I’m not the enemy… if you kill me the one who really did this will get away with it” her voice quivered.“Isn’t this your fault? Weren’t you the one who asked me to own up for an accident I didn’t cause?” Robin yelled.“I did it to protect your cousin… I was mostly concerned about him, he crashed into the car of a powerful person’s son

48; The promise.
Seth came in and took a look at Cody examining his mood, earlier when the nurse put him in a wheelchair he wasn’t reacting at all he said nothing and made no expression at all. This was the kind of face he always put on at work, he was a much nicer person when he was outside of work so seeing him in that mood made him think something was on his mind. He looked up when he noticed Seth had walked in and then said with no expression at all.“Are we going home now?” Seth nodded to his question “The doctor will come for you and do a final checkup then we can leave”When the doctor came the questions he asked Cody fell on deaf ears, his mind was far away.“How are you feeling today Mr. Whyte?” He kept asking.“Will I be able to walk again?” He asked suddenly.The doctor sighed so that’s what was keeping him pensive.“Mr. Whyte, we didn’t even think you’d survive it but here you are, I believe you’ll walk again as long you’re religious with your medications and routine check ups” The docto

49; Rosa’s task
Nina sat behind a laptop working on some ads to get a caretaker for Cody. When Cody wheeled into the study he was displeased to see Nina there. He hadn’t slept a wink and was in no mood to communicate with anybody. He was about to wheel away when Nina looked up at him.“Good morning Cody, I just put out some ads” she said feeling proud of herself.“What ads?” He asked nonchalantly.“The one to get you a caretaker” she reminded him.“But I have Tia and there are other servants in here what do I need more for?” Cody buzzed.“Cody none of the maids here have expertise in taking care of a person with disability, we need a professional… you’re disabled now and need proper care”Her words struck Cody in the wrong place, when he left the hospital he had asked and had been assured that he’ll walk again. He was hopeful that his pain and fears would end but here Nina sat calling him disabled, like there was no hope for him. Fear began to grip him and so did sorrow.“I hope you don’t misunderst

She only had to wait till a good caretaker was hired then she’d take a french leave.She walked to the hall with some tea and handed it to Nina who was busily interviewing a heavily disguised Rosa. Tia’s eyes fell on Rosa they both stared at each other for a while before she walked away. Even though she did not recognize her she just had a bad feeling about her. As she handed the tea to Nina, Cody wheeled in. Nina smiled when she saw Cody while Tia slowly walked out of the office.“Honey, meet Francia, she really knows a lot of stuff about taking care of a disabled person, she’s really good” Nina said happily.Cody frowned upon hearing Nina use the word disabled yet again. “We’re hiring her I’m sure you’d love her” Nina continued enthusiastically.“We don’t need her” Cody said bluntly and wheeled away.When
