"Stop the car". Andrew said to his driver. The driver stopped the car and asked. "Any problem sir?" "No.. I just want to surprise my family. I'll sneak in to the quarters to keep this necklace there , then. I know they'll be at the mansion then I'll go tell my wife to go and help with some cleaning there". Andrew replied and smiled. "Good plan sir". The driver said. Andrew got down from the car and went to the villa through the back and went to the quarters. He started walking gently. Andrew walked a few steps to the quarters when he heard a sound from the quarter. He stopped to listen to the sound and it appeared to be a moan. Andrew moved closer when he heard a familiar voice. He pulled off his shoes and walked closer. The moan keeps on getting louder and he could hear bangs. He stood by the door and focused on the sounds and voices coming out from the room.. He opened the door and saw the shocking scene of his life. Lucy and his P. A having s*x in the quarters. "What!" Andrew exclaimed and passed out. "Daddy". Anderson screamed as his father collapsed. *****{#}***** "Those are the divorce papers". Andrew said as he dropped the files on the table. "Sign them". "Andrew. I'm sorry".Lucy cried as she fell on her kneels. "It was all a mistake. please forgive me. Give me a Last chance". "Lucy. sign those papers". Andrew said slowly." Now". "Andrew".Lucy called. " Lucy, please sign the papers". Andrew said without moving any of his body but his lips. Anderson who was only seven years sat beside his father with his eyes hard as a rock. He clearly understood what was going on. "That's a cheque of fifty million dollars".Andrew said as Lucy signed the divorce papers with shaking hands." You can decide what you want with it". " I don't want your money, Andrew". Lucy cried." All I want is your forgiveness ". She stood up and walked up to her son and knelt beside him. "I'm sorry. Son ". She stood up and walked out of the house. "Dad". Anderson called. "Please forgive mommy. Give her a last chance". " She can never get a last chance". Andrew replied his son." This is her third time and it will be the last". Anderson opened his eyes in awe." What! '.He exclaimed. "You mean this isn't the first time mom is cheating on you". "Women are b***h". Andrew said to his son. "Make money".He placed his hand on his son's lap. "Not love. Women can be bought" . He stood up." You will continue your studies in Italy. And will only come back when you're done with all school levels. You won't come to this country not even for holiday or vacation". " Dad".Anderson called. " You would only do as I say". Andrew shouted at his son." There's no way I'm ever going to let you see that stupid mother of yours ever again". " Are you going to take the revenge on me? ". Anderson asked as he lowered his head. Andrew's nerve calmed and he sighed and knelt beside his son who was already crying." Anderson. I'm doing this for you. I don't want you to live with the trauma. You staying in this country will make you not able to concentrate on your studies and focus on your life. You need to be brave. strong. fierce. and live your life for no one but your self only". Anderson nodded. " So will you go? ". Andrew asked. " Yes Dad. I will go and excell. I will make you proud". Anderson said as he wiped off his tears. " That's my son". Andrew said and pulled his son in for a hug. "Go to your room and have a rest. Good night". Anderson stood up and went to his room and sat beside the window. He watched his mother walking slowly and crying. The street was empty as there were few cars and few people in the street. "Women are b***h". The word rang in his ears." Make money. Not love. Women can be bought". Anderson closed his eyes and sighed. That would be the last time he would see his mother. Anderson opened his eyes to a ghastly accident. He saw a young woman and a little girl of about two years in a pool of blood and the driver speeding away. Anderson saw the plate number clearly and memorized it. He saw his mother carrying the child few minutes after the ambulance arrived and the nurses were carrying the mother. Lucy joined the nurses and the injured mother and daughter in the ambulance and the driver drove away. Anderson closed his window and went to his bed , He laid on his bed and covered himself with the duvet and slept off.....
