Anamika remembered something and said, "Right," they disengaged. "I saw him..." "Saw who?" Emma asked."The stranger from five years ago..." Seeing the scowl on Emma's face, she continued, "He is Asher Walkers!"Emma choked on her saliva. "Wha– what are you talking about? What do you mean?!" It was simply unbelievable!"Asher Walkers was the man... My children's father!"Emma's lips fell apart for a while before she replied, "Wow," nothing else came out of her vocal cord. Never in a million years would she believe that her best friend's nightmare was Asher, the bane of the Walkers' family!"Wait, I– I don't understand. How did this happen?!""Bet I was used by Amelia and Asher?" she thought out loud."How so?""I can't find a better explanation after coming up with a few and piecing them together."Amelia was Cullen's fiance at the time. Then she told me to go to room 101, which I went into, but the numbers suddenly changed after I came out the next day. At the same time, I saw Ameli

Anamika chuckled sadly as she slowly opened her eyes to find herself sitting on her brother's favorite swing at the public playground.She built another public playground last year and bought this one; where her brother spent his remaining days with her... It was also the place her father died.The image of her father screaming her name and running towards her assaulted her blurry vision.The man was running with all his strength and made it in time to push her out of the way but he couldn't save himself from the bullet that was meant for her."Daddy!!!!"Anamika screamed but the man smiled at her and said with difficulty, "I- I'm so– sorry!... I love–"Tears rolled down Anamika's eyes as she slowly broke down, crying her heart out. Those words that he didn't get to finish were what she had loved to hear the most from her parents.For so many years, she longed to hear those words but nobody except Martin told her that repeatedly. Not her mother, her father, or Cora ever told her they

After Anamika got home, the first thing she did was to look for Bella but was told that Bella left for work and hadn't returned.Anamika didn't doubt Tyler but she wanted to hold on to the little glimmer of hope that Tyler was playing a prank on her.Her phone beeped and when she looked at the email, it was a picture of Bella's dead body.Anamika bit her lips harshly and tried to suppress her rage."Mummy!" Aiden called with excitement as he was hurrying down the stairs.Anamika immediately wiped the gloom from her face and smiled sweetly. "Careful, you might fall," She warned while walking hurrying towards him."I'm strong, I won't fall." He giggled."Where is your sister?" Anamika looked up at the stairs."She's sleeping.""Why is she sleeping by this time? Is she alright?" Anamika was about to head to the stairs when Aiden grabbed her leg to stop her."My sister is not happy, She feels bored, so she told me to leave her alone," he sighed pitifully."Why? Did you cause trouble for h

Shell restaurant… Anamika alighted from her car, looking incredibly gorgeous in her red off-shoulder long dress. Holding a silver purse that went with her jewellery, her transparent heels effortlessly took her to the restaurant's entrance. Shell restaurant is one of the most expensive restaurants in Nairaland. It has no private chambers, rooms, or booths, and all its customers sit in open spaces for their meals. To book a space in the restaurant, one has to have done it at least three months prior, but booking the whole restaurant requires the person to have booked it six months prior; which got Anamika even more excited. It indicates that Henry had been meaning to take her out on a date for so long.Entering the restaurant, it didn't take Anamika too long to spot her date as he was the only one in sight, standing beside a romantically designed table in a seductively and intimately decorated restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was dim, but the illumination coming from th

When Asher's mother was pregnant with her first son, she had a miscarriage after drinking what a maid brought to her. Although the doctor said otherwise, Ms. Florida had her thoughts, so she became cautious since she didn't know who her enemies were. Also, she couldn't get anything out of the maid because her husband had allegedly taken care of the maid. During her second pregnancy, Ms. Florida found out that her husband was cheating on her. Because of the stress and circumstances of the situation her body was in at that time, she got another miscarriage. Her husband defended his innocence with tons of evidence, and she forgave him. But in her third pregnancy, a few weeks before she put to birth, news of her husband's infidelity hit her, but she refused to succumb to the pain of heartbreak she bore along with the difficulty of pregnancy. After she gave birth to Asher, she found out that the woman her husband cheated on her with was the same lady he denied knowing.Ms. Florida fought
