Christian watched the doctor leave, after which he headed to have a word with his mother. It had been over an hour since Mabel lost consciousness but he didn’t go to see Kate immediately as Mabel was his first priority and he wanted to make sure she was alright. She had disrespected Mabel for too long and today was the limit.“I want to know what went through your head when you pointed the gun at her,” Christian asked when he got to where she was.“Well I just found out that she was the daughter of the Devilles and I wanted to kill her,” Kate stated bluntly. “Why is she still around even after you both know the truth?” she inquired referring to Reginald and Christian.“Because she’s not a threat and because I’m in a relationship with her,” Christian revealed to his mother and he watched the colour drain from his mother’s face.“You said you weren’t,” Kate stated.“Well we are now,” Christian retorted.“I do not accept the damn relationship!” Kate exhaled angrily. “Does it look lik

“Wait a minute, you actually developed feelings for me,” Mabel grinned, changing the subject. “I thought you wanted me to suffer,” she reminded Christian of his words back then.“Don’t you want to shoot me again?” she mocked him.“Keep on talking and I just might shoot you again, this time, I won’t graze you,” Christian threatened and instead of instilling fear in Mabel, she laughed.“You have feelings for me, you can’t hurt me,” Mabel shook her head.“Hey, don’t turn this against me. You also developed feelings for me after telling me countless times that you weren’t like the other women who wanted to date me,” he accused her and he watched her cheeks burn as she couldn’t retort.“W-well, I-i,” she stuttered.“I don’t know what other women see in you but I’m not like them and I have no intention of dating you and if you’re the last man on earth, I’d rather die single,” Christian imitated Mabel and her words when they had first met and hated each other.“Things change and so do people

“How did she regain her memory?” Dorian asked as he poured himself a drink. “Mom came over here and pointed a gun at her after she found out that Mabel is the daughter of Anthony Deville,” Christian answered and Dorian almost spat out his drink.“The fuck, how did you get her not to shoot Mabel?” Dorian inquired as he knew his mother had no trouble in shooting someoneChristian narrated all that happened and Dorian wowed after he was done. “Well the good thing is that Mabel has regained her memory. “So, did she regret sleeping with you?” he coughed and Christian squinted his eyes at him.“You forget that I’m meticulous, you have scratches on your body and Mabel has hickeys on her neck, it wasn’t that hard to put two and two together,” he explained and Christian cursed his brother’s meticulousness as he poured himself a drink. “No, she doesn’t,” Christian answered Dorian’s question and when he turned to look at Dorian, he found him grinning at him. “I don’t want to hear it,” he warne

“My love,” Maya cried out as she hugged her daughter. It had been a damn week of her being from Mabel and every second of it killed her not knowing how Mabel was holding up.“Look at that, mother and daughter finally reunited. Isn’t that what you wanted pumpkin?” The terrifying man said and Maya immediately shielded Mabel behind her.“What problem you have shouldn’t be taken out on her, she’s just a child,” Maya tried to appeal to the terrifying man. The man didn’t say anything, instead, he brought out a young boy and due to the fact that Mabel was behind her mother, she couldn’t see him. “She’s the one who killed your brother and who caused your mother’s accident,” the man whispered into the boy’s ear as he put his gun into the boy’s hands. “You know what you have to do,” the man said as he moved behind the boy.“What nonsense are you saying?” Maya demanded and her eyes widened in horror as the young boy pointed the gun at her.“I promise, I didn’t kill your brother nor cause your

When they entered the room, Christian saw the driver who had wanted to kill him tied up to a chair. “Stay here, let me go and get the woman,” the man said as he left Christian alone with the driver.“You betrayed us!” Christian yelled at the driver. “Dorian is dead because of you, and my parents won't spare you!” He yelled.“Don't blame me, blame the woman who killed Dorian,” the driver laughed evilly. “After she escapes from here, she'll go after your mother and father and kill them just like she killed Dorian, and you'll be all alone with no family!”“No!” Christian screamed and he covered his ear as he didn't want to hear anything else from the driver.He quickly ran out of the room and when he got out, he saw the man who had rescued him walking into another room, without thinking twice, he followed him and when Christian got into the room, he saw a woman and a small girl behind the woman alongside the man.The man then turned to face Christian. “She’s the one who killed your broth
