Angela's POV I screamed in shock at the sight of mum on the floor. Dad was fanning her, resuscitating and trying to wake her. I did not have time to ask what had happened. I decided that we immediately take her to the hospital. It was hard taking her to the car but with the help of some of the maids, we were able to take her to the car with the help of some of the maids. I was thinking all through the ride to the hospital. There was a saying that storms don't last forever and they give way for brighter skies but I am wondering if this was one of those types of storms. I hope this is not one of the storms that breaks up families, I hope this storm will not tear our family apart and I hope it will not displace us. Mom has been taken into the emergency room and the doctors were trying to resuscitate her. I am here by the door of the emergency room holding onto all hopes for my mother. Just then one of the nurses came out and asked that we make payments to the hospital accounts. It was then that I noticed that Dad was not anywhere around. I became scared. Ever since Mom was taken into the emergency unit, he seems to have disappeared. I panicked and started walking out of the hospital. Where did he go. I was told that a certain Man went to the poolside and fear gripped me more. I ran to the poolside in a bid to save my father not knowing that what I will see by the poolside that day is going to change my life forever. Justin's POV I entered the car and the driver started driving away. I don't know why dad has to send for me today of all days. Is it his birthday party? That is still months away. Is it me but I noticed Dad now sends for me more than he does in the past? Laughs. The old man is finally coming to his senses after he has being bewitched by that woman he calls a wife. Do you wonder who this cutie is? I am Justin Theodore, the second CEO of the Theodore group, my father being the first CEO. I am twenty eight, tall, handsome,winks. and I am also one of the richest co-ceo in America. I do not brag, yeah my numbers speaks for me. I like my woman of the average height, also there is something about innocent looking women that pulls me in. I love to see that naive face in women. We soon got to the front of the mansion and the drivers honked at the gate. Finally. I should have stayed back at home. Because tell me why I came over today only to be faced with discussions about marriage, marriage and marriage. Is my father after my life? Am I not responsible enough as a single guy like this? Why must he bring marriage into our every discussion. I know that witch is behind this and I am going to show her my petty side for coming up with this trash. “What do you have to say son? I have been talking about marriage ever since you came in here. Don't you want to settle down?” The old man asked again. “Dad, I have told you countless time that I will get married when the time comes. I don't even have a bride yet. Do you expect me to just bring home any girl?” I asked frustrated. “You leave that to me son, I will find you a bride. In fact there is this girl I have seen, what is her name again? Olivia? Skylar? I think I have forgotten but don't worry. I'd find you a bride” Dad said and I look at him in shock. “What? What are you saying dad?” I asked with shock in my eyes. “Infact, I am only waiting for her consent. You are getting married soon son” he said with that his not so handsome smile. Is this old man playing with me?
