Chapter Eighty-One- Who Are You?

“Mr. Wilson, Kelvin’s here,” Paula called, alerting Damian upon Kelvin’s arrival.“Tell him I’m busy and I won’t be attending to anyone,” Damian replied coldly, it’s been twenty-four hours since Layla’s abduction, and Damian has not stepped out of his room nor uttered a word to anyone. Paula has begged him severally to at least drink something but Damian refused and even threatened to take her job away from her if she disturbs him again so Paula gave up.Paula headed back to the sitting room where Kelvin was waiting for Damian, “Kelvin, I’m sorry but he won’t see you and might not be coming downstairs either. Maybe you can check up on him tomorrow, or some other time.” Paula said, dismissing Kelvin. But the fellow refused to leave,“ it’s alright then, I will wait. Besides, it's not like I have anything to do at the moment. If it is going to take Damian a whole week before he comes down here to have a word with me, fine, I will wait.” Kelvin said and made himself more comfortable on t

Chapter Eighty-Two- Cassandra Grey!

“ I am sure you are not deaf, I said WHO THE F**K ARE YOU?” Kelvin yelled for the second time but that did not make Paula respond to him either.Damian was still trying to process the whole situation in his mind. Or, was he just assuming? No, Paula watched him grow and she has always treated him like her own son, and he in return, cared for her like his mom. Trust was an understatement to what Damian has for Paula.“Nanny P, that’s what I used to call you remember? I called you by that name because If truly you are the woman who looked after me since I was born till this stage, I want you to look at this boy whom you raised all by yourself and tell me what the f**k is going on here?” Damian said with a cracky voice and Kelvin felt so sorry for him. The last time Damian was this emotional was when he found out about Ava and Justin, since then, he has always tried to maintain his steeze, regardless of the situation.However, Paula still did not say a word, rather she stood there, her

At least, nobody’s home to boss me around,Paula, can I get a glass of orange juice,Paula, can you please bring my food upstairs I don’t feel like coming downstairs to eat,Paula this…Paula that….Gosh, I get easily irritated being around those people, not to think that I had to put up with their excesses for what??Twenty-five fucking years.” Layla heard Paula and Ava discussing.At first, she could have sworn that the voices only sounded alike but after hearing the details of the conversation, she didn’t need anybody to tell her that she had been living with the devil. Not to think that Damian trusted Paula with his whole life. She has watched both Damian and Kendra treat Paula as a family since she got married to Damian Damian allowed only Paula to have access to their matrimonial bedroom, that’s the level at which he trusts her.“Enjoying your new place of abode?” Ava asked, jerking Layla out of her thoughts.Layla

Chapter Eighty-Four- She Ruined Everything!

“What in heaven’s name happened here? Justin!!!” Ava yelled as soon as she saw her so-called bodyguards lying half-conscious on the floor. Meanwhile, as soon as both Justin and Layla heard her voice downstairs, Justin collected the phone quickly tied Layla’s hand, and put her back in the position Ava had left her, pretending as though nothing happened. The next thing they heard was Ava’s voice, she barged into the room, filled with rage but somehow felt a bit relaxed when she saw Layla still in the same position she had left her, “What happened downstairs Justin, did someone break into the house?” she asked, but this time, her voice was a little bit relaxed. Pretending not to know what she was talking about, Justin replied, looking as though he was just as confused as her, ‘What are you talking about, what is going on where?” Frustrated, Ava said, “Help me untie her.” Both Justin and Layla looked surprised. They didn’t know what Ava was up to and also, they hoped that

Chapter Eighty-Five- He Saved Me Again.

Never for once did Justin ever think that Ava would point a trigger at him let alone pull it. It all happened so fast but thankfully, the cops came in almost immediately but Justin passed out already.Damian on the other hand could not contain his joy when Layla landed safely on the foam that was spread out for her.“don’t worry love, you are safe now.” He whispered in her ears as he pulled her into his arms. Layla on the other hand was already exhausted from constant crying and torture and pleaded with Damian to help save Justin.“I can't believe you’d plead on his behalf, after everything he put you through,” Damian said, slightly annoyed as they stood aside and watched the cops guide Paula into a black van from the car she was in earlier.“Layla was too exhausted to speak but since she had jumped down before Ava shot him, she was still oblivious to the fact that he was shot. Here she was, pleading with Damian to spare Justin’s life again.“He saved my life, Damian.” She muttered am

Damian sighed and said, “God-mother, first I don’t want you to think that I am trying to cut you or your son off. You have been nothing but a great mom and aunt to me, but the truth is that your son, who is supposed to be like a brother to me has always been envious of me.” He paused. “That’s right.” Kendra chipped in and her mom gave her a warning look, she quickly muttered “I’m sorry” and Damian continued. “I don’t know if you have ever noticed but Justin always wanted everything I have, down to my woman. I appreciate the fact that he helped Layla to contact me while she was abducted but then, if my memory serves me well, a few months ago Justin conspired with this same lady who tried to cause me pain. All of us. He was aware of this, yet he chose to put all of us in danger. My wife made me understand how much of a helper he has be
