Chapter 25

"Philip you know Connor's Location?"

"Yes boss, he went on a date with miss Daniella and he is not with his bodyguards."

"He finally walked into the Lions den."

"Abduct him."

  "Yes boss.".

"I repeat just him."

After eating, l was feeling sleepy already.

  "Let's go sleep wifey"Connor said and l blushed.

  "Geez, Connor we are not yet married" l said.

"But we soon will right, or do you want to finish college before we get married?"

   "I will think about it, let's go sleep" l said and yawned.

  "Anything you say wifey" he replied.

"Yeah yeah yeah" l said and he laughed.

   He helped me up and we headed to our various rooms.

"Wait" he suddenly said.

"What?" I asked and frowned a bit."

   "I just wanted to do this" he said and kissed me lightly on the lips.

  "You look more beautiful when you blush like this" he said and winked at me.

  "Goodnight wifey."

"Goodnight Connor" l said and rushed in.

"Ouch! That hurts" he said as l closed the door.

    This place is quite comfy but l still prefer my room in Connor's house.

    Things happened so fast, l can't believe am now Connor Braxton's fiancee,l can't wait to tell Ariel about it, she is going to tease me till death.

    I almost forgot, Connor's mom doesn't like me, will she agree to it.

   I know my mom will be very happy, she won't reject the person l love, but just Mrs Braxton will she ever agree to it.

I love you Connor,that's all that matters l mumbled and drifted to sleep.

   "Brielle am sorry, l thought my secret was safe enough, l never knew it will be exposed one day, l know am not your mother Brielle but l love you as a mother would, l love you so much Brielle, am sorry things turned out this way, but you have to understand that your mother was the Mastermind of them all."

   "Mom is Connor really your son, does dad know about this?"

  "Yes my dear, Connor is my son but l gave him away, l was young and niave at that time, l couldn't face my fears that's why l gave out my only child."

   "Twenty two years ago, Then l was very young, l and your father did an arranged marriage but we later fell in love,at that time l put to bed a baby boy which l named Connor."

   I and Helen(Mrs Braxton) were best friends and we knew everything about ourselves.

   Helen have been married for five years to Mr Braxton but couldn't give birth to a child,As a third generation family Mr Braxton needed an heir.His first wife and son died in an airplane crash.

   So he married Helen, the issue of not having a child caused lots of misunderstandings in their marriage and Mr Braxton threatened to marry another woman.

   Helen was furious.

And she did something shocking.

She faked a pregnancy test and months later she started wearing a moonbump.

   Mr Braxton was overjoyed and promised to make her child his heir if the baby turns out to be a boy.

Unfortunately few weeks later Mr Braxton was involved in an accident and was in coma.

  And the doctor said it's gonna take take a year or two years before he wakes up, is chances of survival was very slim.

      Some months later, a woman came to Mr. Braxton's company, and they could all recognize her as Mr Braxton's first wife, she came with a little boy about three years old, Mr Connor's first son Wyatt.

  The sight was unbelievable and some people ran away thinking they were ghosts.

   Wyatt's mom lost her memories all this years and couldn't come home, but she came back as soon as her memories were back.

  Helen was not happy that Mr Braxton first wife was alive.

  She treated her badly, claiming she can't accept her until her husband wakes up from coma.

  Wyatt's mother took his son and they left the country for the meantime.

  Two years have passed and Mr Braxton was still in coma.

Helen was happy because she was planning on how she was going to get a child before Braxton wakes up.

 She wanted to adopt a child but kicked against the idea because most of the orphanage homes in the country were controlled by one person which was her husband's half brother.

She couldn't risk to get caught.

   Few months later, Helen was Pregnant,she stopped visiting the hospital and assigned some people to take care of her husband.

  She was always indoors because people are definitely going to question her on why she was pregnant when her husband was in coma.

 I went to visit and confront her and she told me she slept with Mr Braxton's secretary and unluckily for her she got pregnant and couldn't abort the pregnancy because it will cost her life.

I was so surprised,and the same time angry.

  "Why will you cheat on your husband with his secretary?" I asked angrily and stomped off, l was very angry, does she want her husband dead so badly?

   I got home and met my husband's younger sister and as usual she was hitting my baby.

  That girl is a thorn in my flesh.

So evil and Witty.

  Maureen stop hitting my son l warned and took Connor away but before l could leave she dragged my hair and Connor fell from my hands to the floor and got injured.

  Due to anger l picked up the vase on the table and threw it at her and it landed on her head, blood gushed out and she fell unconscious.

What did l do? I screamed in terror, she was bleeding profusely and so was Connor.

My Husband was on a business trip so l dailed Helen's number quickly.

I put Maureen and Connor in the car and drove like a mad woman to the hospital.

  Maureen has loosed a lot of blood.

Helen came mintues later she was in deguise, to avoid unnecessary attention.

I explained all what happened to her.

  Minutes later, the doctor came and confirmed Maureen was dead.

I was dumbstruck,l just couldn't believe it, l killed someone, l killed someone,l said and started screaming.

Helen rushed to hold me,l fainted and was admitted.

  When l woke up later, l removed everything from my body and rushed to Connor's ward and l saw Helen with him.

I was relieved.

But the thought that l killed my husband's only sister sent shivers through me.

  Don't worry Kat, we should keep it a secret, tell Newton it was a house accident, she slipped and fell and hurt her head badly, and she couldn't survive it.

And guess what?

 l stupidly agreed,because l never knew this was all her plan to take my child away from me.

*Note: Mrs Newton is still telling Brielle the story.

Few weeks later,Helen started to blackmail me, she told me the doctor said Connor will wake up soon that l should give her my baby or she is going to tell the whole world l killed Maureen.

I was totally shocked.

This is so unbelievable l muttered.

   I told her that am going to expose her secret of being pregnant for Braxton's secretary, if she say anything about my secret.

   And to my surprise, she laughed it off and said afterall her crime was forgiveable, she didn't kill a person like me, she said she wasn't a killer and she brought out a record clip from her bag.

My eyes widened in terror.

    "You see,l have proof Kat, what evidence do you have that l slept with Connor's secretary?None."

If you don't do what l want l will send this clip to your husband and you know what that means she said and stomped off.

  "Yes she is pregnant but what evidence do l have to prove she slept with Braxton's secretary? Like she said l had none."

   "Few weeks later l didn't hear from her,l thought she give up, but l was wrong, The next day l received a call from her, she told me l should come to her house."

  "I went to her house the next day and and met her with two goergous babies, l bet no one in the whole of US knew she gave birth, why is she so decietful, she must have payed and threatened everyone who knew about her pregnancy and l know she also paid the doctor to keep it a secret."

"Money indeed is everything."

    "What are you going to do about the babies Helen, how are you going to explain how you got pregnant, when Braxton is in coma?"

   "That's why you should give me Zayn,he will soon be three years old right? perfect, am just going to tell Braxton l gave birth when he was sleeping in the hospital, she said and smirked."

"Helen, why are you doing this, l thought we are friends, best friends, why will you want my son? besides you were the one that told me to keep it a secret."

   "Don't worry Kat am going to take care of him well, more better than you can imagine, and you know what l don't plan to leave you childless, am going to give this babies to you, aren't they beautiful?" She said and grinned widely.

  "Helen you are a devil,the devil is much better compared to you, you had all this planned out right? From the day you came to meet me at the hospital you were praying for her to die,or did you arrange for someone to kill her so your plans could work out, tell me Helen why will you bring a record clip with you, don't tell me you were the one that killed Maureen, cus l will never forgive you."

"Hahahaha, what if l killed her? Where is your evidence? You are a fool Kat."

Am giving you 1 day to say goodbye to your son, after 24hours l will make sure this video clip goes viral and trust me what l want l get.

    l can arrange for a fake car accident, your son died but you survived and all l have to do is just a little surgery on his face, how about that, well planned right? She said and smiled mischievously.

"Helen Please l beg you don't take my son away from me please."

  "This are documents sign it before 24hours and return it to me, don't worry the day after tomorrow take Zayn to the supermarket, when you coming your car will have an accident, don't worry you won't die but you son will okay."

"Helen please" l begged.

  " Your secret is safe with me just do what l want okay, now leave my house she said."

    "I got home and was devastated how am l going to tell Newton that l killed his only sister?"

  I opened the documents Helen gave to me and read it.

  I Stared at Zayn and started crying uncontrollably.

  So am really going to give away my only treasure.

I will never forgive you Helen l swore.

 I took the pen to sign but l paused and read the last line over and over again.

It reads: Anyone between the two parties who breaches this contract will be punished by death.

  I was so shocked.

Helen was fully prepared for this.

The next day, l took Zayn to meet his father and we went out together, cus l knew that was the last day am going to have a claim to my son.

I pitied both father and son.

That night l slept beside Zayn and cried all through the night that l got a fever.

The next day l sent the signed documents back to Helen.

Am sorry son am really sorry but l have to keep my marriage.

  I can give birth to another son right?

I thought decieving myself.

And as planned on our way to the supermarket market, they was an accident, a fatal accident, but to my surprise there was someone with us in the car, the person in the other vehicle died and l had some scratches and the person inside my car took Connor away.

My husband was devastated and even fell ill after the incident and so was l.

Helen did surgery on him,l couldn't even recognize my son.

She sent someone to drop her babies at the orphanage and told me to go adopt them. 

I told Newton about it and he agreed.

  I adopted the babies and gave them Brielle and Shelly, you both were unidentical.

Few months later Braxton woke up from coma.

And then Zayn my son was named Connor.

That's how he became a Braxton.

Okay Mom l get it now,so Connor's real name is Zayn and Daniella's real name is Shelly.

But this is really really unbelievable, how can someone like Mrs Braxton still exist, why didn't you kill her already.

  You would have killed her mom

Brielle, it's your mother we are talking about here.

  Never she is not my mother, God forbids,a mother that exchanged her babies and even sent them to an orphanage.

  Am going to kill her.

"Brielle, shut it will you? What's wrong with you."

 I hate her

I hate her.

I have arranged a flight for you, you are living the country until l tell you to come home.

Mom, you haven't said the complete Story?

Did l lost my memories?

Why were you feeding me with that d**g?

Since you adopted the both of us how come we were separated?

Why does it seem like Daniella lost her memories too?

You have to leave Brielle,how about we talk about it on phone, Helen said earlier that she was gonna take care of you,l don't know what that implies,but l know Helen can do anything to keep her secret.

She wants Connor to be the heir by all means and that was why she wanted you to marry him so badly so her daughter won't be left out.

Helen is dangerous 

She gets what she wants

she eliminates everyone and anything on her way to achieve her aim including Wyatt's mother.
