CHAPTER ONE
Good morning babe, Olivia peeking at David. Waiter!! bring them in she said as bouquet of flowers and food trays were being brought inside along with other wrapped gifts. what are we celebrating, David asked with a sleepy eye while stretching his hands. “It's our 100th day anniversary” she smiled as she hugged David, "I'm sure you didn't forget and you prepared a gift for me too”, she asked with her eyes fixed on that of David's. I sure did get a gift for you, David as he stood up raising the pillows to look for his phone. Oh here it is. He played a video of a girl and a boy covered with blankets kissing and having a good time with each other. You've been having an affair with my step brother right? He Glowered as he was shaking the phone at her face. Before I forget I have another gift for you, he said as he brought out a necklace and wore it around her neck and whispered into her ear you're no different from other girls. What's this for, she stuttered looking so confused. It's a farewell necklace, David replied as he walked towards the elevator. Tears rolled down Olivia's eyes as she started screaming and scattering the whole place, took the bottles around her and threw them on the floor. ******* Wow, so she has been cheating on you with your step brother Alex? Mr Sam said looking shocked.( Mr Sam is David's friend and also the director of David's restaurant, which made him know everything concerning David) She never knew I was going to find out… David replied before his cell phone started to ring. Hello good morning ma'am, he answered as he picked the call. Today's my husband's birthday and I hope you don't mind dropping by for dinner to celebrate his birthday. The lady from the cell phone said as she ended the call. How did you find out and how did you get those videos because …..Mr Sam was still talking before David interrupted. I'm leaving, I have other important things to do as he walked towards the garage and drove off. So rude, Mr Sam smacked his lips as he watched David walk out. I wish I could just break his head. Here, take this sweet and wait here for me, I will be back soon, I'm off to submit the application letter. Don't move an inch from here, Mia stated to Liam staring at him as she perked him on his cheeks and left. Liam was standing waiting for his mom to come before he saw a cat crossing the road and a car was approaching. This cat must be hungry, I can give it my sweets, he said as he started walking towards the cat to give it the sweet. He said with a pitiful look. Mia came out after submitting her application when she saw her son in the middle of the road and a car was fast approaching. She screamed “LIAM!!!” As she ran towards him and hugged him so tight, facing herself towards the coming car so she could save her son. The car stopped an inch before hitting them. Mia fainted out of shock. People gathered around them, please someone should get water. Someone from the gathering shouted. Just then, the car door opened as David came down. Liam rushed to him “Please save my mom, she's the only one I have,” Liam begged as tears rolled down his eyes. David carried Mia and laid her at the back seat. And Liam sat beside his mum as she was rushed to the hospital. (At the hospital) Mia was taking a drip as she opened her eyes slowly. “Where's my son?” she said with a nasal voice immediately she opened her eyes fully looking around. “Mummy!!” Liam said, hugging his mother. “Ohhh sweetie, were you injured?” She asked as she turned him around to check if he had any injuries. No mum,Liam replied, hugging her again. “I was scared you would leave me,” he said with a teary voice still hugging his mum. David clears his throat, “enough of the drama” I've cleared the bills and everything so once you feel better you can leave, teach your son not to cross recklessly on the road you might not be this lucky next time” he said with his hands in his pocket without feeling an atom of remorse “Excuse me Mr” Mia yelled, removing the drip on her hand as her face turned red. “I should be the one telling you to drive more carefully or probably quit drinking before driving because you might end up behind bars next time,”she sassed. I don't argue with crazy women like you. When you're done with the test, call me and tell me the results. He dropped his business card on the table there. I just don't want any complications in the future, he said and left the hospital room. David was leaving the hospital heading to his car before a phone started ringing in his pocket. He brought it out and remembered how he took Mia's phone from the floor and kept it inside his pocket. “Why would a crazy woman like her forget her phone with me?” he said, looking around to see if he could see her before the call came in again. He answered it to know if he could trace her with the call. Heyyyyy, quit the hiding and come out, you can't hide forever the caller said immediately David answered the call. Excuse me…..David said looking confused. Ohhh you're her lover, the caller mocked him laughing so hard. David had to end the call as he went back to the hospital in search of them. He was on the lifter where he saw her running with her son. Mummy, where are we going? Liam asked, holding his mum as they were running. I will tell you when we get home she said as she turned her back and saw the three men who were chasing her getting closer. She entered the elevator with her son and it closed before the men could get to her. The elevator stopped after a few seconds and slid open. She looked so frightened as sweat drops were draining her clothes thinking it was those men who were chasing her. Just then David walked in. She gave a sigh of relief as the elevator slid closed again. Here is your cell phone, David said, handing the cell phone over to Mia. The elevator slid open at the first floor David and Mia went separate ways. David got to the family house when. His step mum and his dad were already seated at the dining. Oh my dear, what took you long to be here, his step mum asked as she stood up to hug him. I had meetings to attend. He replied as he moved her hands away from him. He knew she's just putting on an act because dad was there. Happy birthday dad and how is your health,David moved towards him and kept a small box that was wrapped. Your birthday gift as He said pulling the chair out to sit down. I'm getting better soon. Mr Alfred said. Hope you don't ski…. Alex cuts in. Good evening everyone, he smiled and waved to the family. Welcome my son, Mrs Cathy said hugging and peeking her son on his cheeks. Mrs Cathy is the biological mother to Alex. And who is the damsel you came with, Mr Alfred asked looking at the lady who was holding hands with Alex. Oh, I was just about to introduce her, her name's Olivia, she's my fiancé and we're planning our marriage soon. Alex kissed her palm and they both smiled looking at each other. Olivia was looking nervous as David stared at her. They were both looking at each other which made Olivia lost concentration and didn't realise Mr Alfred was speaking to her. Babe do you guys know each other? Alex was forced to ask cos he noticed the way they were staring at eachother.
