FelixDriving to the hospital with Eveleigh that morning, we decided to visit my company after her appointment with the doctor.While we drove, my father-in-law called her phone. He has been pressuring us to come visit or he visits us himself.In agreement, I and Everleigh asked him to come over to Wellington. Mr Clark hasn't been to Wellington once. He was quite a busy man and travels a lot but this time, we compelled him to visit him in Wellington.“ Guess what Dad said to me on the phone, honey" Everleigh cracked out after the call had ended“ What did he say?" I took my eyes off the road for a moment, giving Eveleigh attention.“ Okay, Dad wants us to give him grandchildren who will take good care of him as he ages. He called us two inseparable lovebirds and he's done putting up with our lovey-dovey thingy"I couldn't hold myself when I heard that. While we were yet In Las Vegas, Dad has always been jealous of me and Everleigh. He said we were making him want to consider giving hi

EveleighWe got to Bolton Hotel, the place where Cylde was hosting the event. It was already some minutes past 11 am when we arrived. The event had even begun too.Felix and I didn't go with our driver or any security by our side. We were prominent people but chose to keep it decent like the average man.However, our outfit and appearance spoke much of elegance, Sophistication, and wealth.I wore a red floral strapless gown from Jenny Packham that flowed from my waist down, covering my feet made from one of the costliest fabrics in the world.My shoes, a pair of very shiny stilettos, matched perfectly with my designer purse, which was made only from little gemstones.Felix wore a red suit and a white shiny long sleeve from the Inside. His well-tailored trousers and suit hug give him a touch of swag, elegance, and sophistication.His hair also was perfectly styled, which gave him a dishing appearance and a more unique personality.Everywhere In the hotel was filled up with cars but whe

EverleighShortly after Cylde's speech, everyone seated applauded him and he walked out of the stage.Even though my feelings for Cylde had all gone sour, I didn't like the way Cylde was looking. This isn't the Clyde I was married to. What went wrong?“ Honey, I think Clyde needs help. He's not looking healthy In my eyes" I whispered to Felix as we sat."I should see him after the occasion ends,” Felix replied, glaring at his wristwatch.The fundraising began shortly after a few seconds.People started supporting Clyde's company with millions of dollars. Inside of me, I was overjoyed about how people were moved to support Clyde after he shared his pathetic story.Felix and I haven't responded yet. We discussed what we were using to support Clyde's business individually before we left the house.Not even all the funds raised by the men there went a quarter of what I and Felix had individually.The donations kept coming, and then, it seemed the list had been exhausted except for Felix

EveleighI walked away from Cylde to find Felix outside.Felix was with my phone and purse. I didn't know how to locate him so I just strode to where we packed our car to see if I could find him there.Then, I bumped into a slim woman wearing a black nude dress that clung to her body.Laura?We stood gazing surprisedly at each other for the first time after many months.“ Laura? What a surprise" I said, surprised.She was intimidated by my presence and wanted to run away from me but I stopped her." You know you can't hide from me forever, right? Why not face me once and for all? A friend shouldn't run away from her best friend, right?” My calm voice, filled with confidence, caused Laura to shiver.Laura used to be very bold, confident, and street-smart when we knew each other back then, but the Laura standing before looked different from the one I knew back then.To my surprise, however, She suddenly raised her face and gave out laughing like someone high on some cheap drugs.“ It's

EverleighMy eyes flickered open, feeling weakness washing over me as I tried to take in my surroundings. My vision was blurry, not understanding where unless but gradually I saw the room around me and realised I'm in a hospital ward, lying on a bed.The room was cool as I tried to remember how I ended up here. Suddenly I felt my head pounding, as I racked my brain harder.Memories from the moments before I lost consciousness started rushing in vividly like flood. I recalled the heated argument with Laura, our voices raised, our words sharp and painful. I remembered how we hurled insults at each other, hurting each other's pride.In that moment of anger, Laura had slapped me hard across my cheek. Reacting in fury, I returned the slap twice, I lost my balance and fell to the ground. As I hit the floor, Laura's fist came down on my stomach, leaving me gasping for air.Remembering everything that has happened. "My baby!" I screamed, clutching onto my tummy in protection. I felt my eyes
