Chapter Forty One: Lilian's Surprise Visit.

Rosa’s POVOn the plane back home, I watched the sky bright with the sun radiating, casting a gentle glow on my face as thought of the question Dad asked: Who could be the person who knows about your origin?Why would the person inform me by sending someone to strangle me? How can I find this person, there's more to this?The most shocking fact is that the mugger was right, so I was adopted, dad and mom are not my real parents it's really difficult to believe.So who are my real parents? I pondered.As the plane soar through the sky, I closed tightly and then exhaled to calm myself down.“Get me a glass of cold water.” I commanded the servant nearby.“Yes, ma'am, I'll go right away.” She said with a curtsy and left.Currently, I think what I need is something cold to cool me down.She came back with a tray in her hands.“Ma'am, here is your water. The pilot asked me to inform you that we'll be landing soon.”“Okay then, you can leave.” I responded and starting drinking the water.Abou

Chapter forty two: Having Fun

Donald's POVWork was really hectic today, so much papers to sign, meetings to attend and decision-making to do, I'm so stressed up and really need to shower immediately.I felt disgusting and reeked off sweat too, the cool bath was nice. I laid in the bathtub letting the chill water sip into my bones as it eased the earlier stress I had.The scent of the soap and hair conditioner I applied was really spectacular, I felt really freshen. These products Rosa ordered newly are better than the ones the housekeeper has been ordering lately.I finished taking my bath, I decided to put on a shirt and shorts, waiting for Rosa as I thought by now she should be done with whatever conservation she and Lillian had.A minute later, she walked in majestically with an infectious smile making me look at her as she made her way to the bed.“Hey babe.” She said leaning on my body making warmth all over my body, peace came to my mind the moment our body touched.She was always needed at all times, her p

Chapter Forty three: Hacked Account

Donald's POV“Hello boss!” She yelled, her voice shaking. What's going on? Why is your voice shaking? What happened? I thought deeply while responding to her.“The account manager just called me.” She replied, panting heavily.“So, what did he say?” I wondered what the situation might be.“He said that someone hacked into the company's account.” She replied, her breathing was still rapid as I could hear it from the phone.“What! How! What do you mean by someone hacking into the company's account, I hope this is some sort of joke.” I yelled, my fist shaking as my face turned red.“No, this isn't a joke, sir. The account manager said sums of money are rushing out of the account, and he can't stop it.” She said quickly.“How would such a thing happen? What do I pay you guys for? To lose a massive sum of money?” I roared furiously, this was really frustrating.“What happened dear?” I hear Rosa say.“Donald, you're not saying anything.” She said, frowning, I'm sure she could see the anger

Chapter Forty Four: “Who could that be?”

Donald's POVMy chest tightened, my head aches. Who could have invaded my company's IP. This is ridiculous. Rosa was busy tapping on the keyboard without looking at me. The seriousness in her showed it was terrible. The silent atmosphere in my office aroused more panic.“Rosa, how is it?” I inquired curiously. My throat is stiff like something blocked it. She could barely hear me clearly. She muted and didn't respond. I couldn't pretend any longer I went closer to her. She felt my presence and shook her body, she looked me straight in my eyes, but her expressions were not understanding.“Babe, you can't imagine. This is serious.” She muttered. Her eyes widened.The look on her face got me scared. “You mean!” I echoed sharply, tapping my table.“Is an insider!” She yelled.“What? An insider?” My head wrinkled, my jaw opened wide.“Who?” My voice tensed, leaning forward and my arms wrapped around me.Rosa's expression looked dull, her lips opened a little. She raised her brows. “I can't

Chapter Forty Five: “Who are you trying to call the cops on?”

Donald's POVRosa continued, “To top it all, the link to the attempt is from his device. The IP was concealed, but Caleb was able to locate it and opened it. He can't hide it.”Oh my God, how can my uncle be this wicked? He has been the nicest of all in this company. Was he manipulated? I thought. My finger tapping my table.“No!” I shouted, stabbing with my finger. “Uncle……!”Caleb letting out a considerable breath, his eyes shrugging. “Rosa, he is not alone.” He interrupted.“I knew it” Clasping my hands behind my body, our eyes met each other.Caleb and Rosa muted, I kept staring at them. He opened another file. My eyes glazed at the screen. A video clip played immediately. Showing CCTV footage of four days ago. It showed my uncle entering the server room after the working hour.A lady was right behind him.My eyebrows lowered as cold ran through my spine.Rosa zoomed the footage, the image of the lady behind him was visible enough.“Who is the person?” I inquired. My head tilted.

My mom and I

Donald's POVI scrunched up my face immediately, and I heard her voice. Who invited her over? My stepmom interrupted the silent room. My dad faked a smile, I know him too well. He doesn't like someone interrupting him when having an important discussion.“Who is the person you want to arrest?” She muttered again, her eyes glinted and her arms on her waist.“You are supposed to be in the kitchen preparing my meal and not here, please.” My dad replied calmly.Her face twisted, and she still insisted, “Don't we have a cook?”“The cook is preparing your meal.” She answered harshly.My dad stood up and turned to her, “Since you want to be everywhere, is Thompson.”He replied, sat down, and he sniffed.“Which Thompson?” She inquired, her nose flared.“Your brother-in-law. Thompson Ronald of course.” He said loudly.She scowled and sat down, still staring at my dad. She is not even having that surprise look. Not even a flinch. I was furious, what kind of woman is this?“What? Why him? What h

Chapter Forty-seven: The shock of my life

Donald's POV“What?” I kept staring like I've seen a ghost.“Who is this?” I kept pondering, my eyes still on the road. I had to stop the car to avoid an accident. Looking in her direction.“Is that not Evelyn?” I asked myself. I didn't know when she disappeared. Likewise, I couldn't see where she went. Is it just a resemblance or her twin? I was lost in thought as I stepped out of my car. I kept looking to see if I could see her again, but I couldn't. Not only that, but I got tired and entered my car and drove home to meet my love.At my residence, the butler came out of the house, “Welcome sir!”I kept quiet and refused to respond. “Is Rosa around?” I asked.“Yes sir!” He replied, his head bowed.Getting to her room, she watched me from the corner where she sat. She looked different, no welcome and no hug. “Are you okay?” I asked, my jaw slacked.“I'm feeling somehow.” She replied, touching her stomach, and her face squeezed.“Let's go to the hospital right away.” I carried her like

Chapter Forty eight: "Hello Mr. Donald." The strange person said.

Donald's POVRelaxing on my bed, but the thought of Rosa's condition is in my heart. The joy of hearing from the doctor, “She is pregnant” a few seconds later, another bad news which chartered my dream of becoming a father. The same doctor said, “If we don't do the operation, we might lose the baby and mother.” Am I dreaming? What is going on? After five years of marriage and the first time hearing the good news of becoming a father, suddenly the same news turned into bad news.A few minutes later, my phone rang. “Who called me?” I looked at the screen and I couldn't recognize the number. I don't have such a number in my contact.“Hello, Mr. Donald.” The strange person said, and I wondered whose voice is this.“Who is on the line please?” I asked, droopy my body.“Good day, Mr. Donald.” She said and her voice this time sounded a bit familiar.“I'm Mrs. Thompson Ronald.” She continued.“I'm calling you to plead on behalf of my husband.”“Please forgive him, he won't try it again.” She

Chapter Forty nine: "Look who we have here!"

Donald's POV“Look who we have here.” I exclaimed. My jaw opened.This face looked familiar, I couldn't recall where I had seen that face before. The familiarity is just too much. “Have we met before?” I asked curiously.“No……. No, sir.” She replied, her voice shaking and she faced down.“Okay, that face looked so familiar.” I. Continued.“Are you sure we've not met before?” I insisted. My brows narrowed.“No sir.” She replied again, this time she nodded her head.“Lilian, how have you been?” I inquired while trying to sit down on a chair.“I'm doing fine Donald.” Lilian answered and smiled softly at me.“Rosa, I need to leave. Thanks to God Almighty, you are getting better.” The stranger said and was about to leave.Rosa's mouth opened wide. “What the heck? Paula. You can't just leave like that. It's not too long since you came here.” Rosa continued.“I hope you are not leaving because of my husband.” she proclaimed jokingly.“No, I need to get something important.” She insisted and

Lilian's voice woke me up from my thoughts.“Rosa, you are still crying. Please stop. You can still be a mother through many means. Just stop crying so that you won't fall sick.” Lilian advised.“I want to die, what is life for?” I replied, my clothes were soaked with tears.“No, you won't die. There is still hope.” Lilian pleaded.Donald worked out of the room, his forehead puckered.I knew I had gotten him angry, but I don't know what to do at this moment.
