"Hi," Desmond greeted."Hi, welcome... Make yourself comfortable, Sir." The lady said and gave him the list of available foods."No, I don't need this now, can I talk with you outside?" Desmond asked gently, looking at the few customers in the place. The lady nodded and said, "Just give me some minutes and I'll be right back." She went into the shop and shortly she came back, handed one of her customers what she requested and slowly she strode down to Desmond's seat and said, "I am ready, can we talk now?""Yes, sure," Desmond answered and stood up.The lady walked outside and Desmond followed her Immediately, "I was here a few weeks ago."Desmond said once they left her customer's sight the lady halted."Okay," The lady responded shortly.Desmond breathed heavily and continued, "I kn
Chapter fifty-six"Aah... Thank God, they didn't notice." Cindy murmured and not in a far distance they left, She now got the sign that Madam Ponny normally gave for her to come out of her place.So she gently opened the entrance and it was Madam Ponny.Madam Ponny carried out a pregnancy test on Cindy and she was pregnant. She smiled and shook her head at the sight of the result.Cindy was a novice, so she didn't understand what was in the result till Madam Ponny explained it to her."Cindy you're pregnant." Madam ponny explained.She sounded so excited even though she did not know the person responsible for the pregnancy.Cindy heard the result and her mood changed, angrily, She asked, "What should I do now? Madam Ponny?""Cindy don't ask me that... What did you expect us to do?" Madam Ponny asked and Cindy noticed anger in her voice. They became an awkward silence between them and after some minutes, Madam Ponny asked, "Cindy, did you love the guy that owns this pregnancy?""Madam
Chapter fifty-sevenSeeing how beautiful the necklace was, made her feel like to see more of the things in the bag.She gently removed everything and saw that Desmond really spent a lot for her and her son.Ben who stood behind Tina began to wonder who Mr Desmond was and why would his mother treat him like that and yet he was still coming to their place. "But, mother, is this gift not too much for us... And it looks expensive as well, who did you say that uncle was?" Ben asked doubting if his mother actually told him the truth of who that man was.Tina knew why he was asking and tears started streaming down her face, "Mother don't cry, If you don't want to talk about him, forget it, let's go and eat." Ben said and went into his mother's arms to console her with a gentle hug.Ben likes Tina so much that he doesn't like seeing her in a sulky mood. Tina returned the necklace and everything back in the bag and dropped it on the sofa.Doing that, she said, "The meal is getting cold, let's

Go ahead and sign up the peppers, money won't be your problem anymore." The Doctor who advised her said persuasively.But Tina refused to listen to him, she went to her baby's bed, carried him and left the hospital Immediately.Tina left the hospital out of fear, she thought they might inject her a
Chapter fifty-nineThe moment he saw her nodding her head, he flashed a satisfied smile and sped up.******"Knock! Knock!"Madam Pony heard a sudden knock on the door, so she went and opened the door. She was surprised to see both of them standing at the door.She was not expecting Dean to come along with Eduardo and Immediately she saw both of them standing, she decided to tell them something related to the truth just to bring him back next time."Come in, Dear," Madam Pony said smiling."Thank you, Madam Ponny, Immediately I dropped the call, we have to leave whatever we are doing to be here..." Dean said as they all went to the sitting room.Dean went and sat down freely on the sofa even before Madam Ponny offered them a seat as usual. "Oh, please have a seat, " Madam Ponny said the moment she turned and saw Eduardo still standing.Eduardo wanted to answer Madam Ponny angrily but Dean spoke before him to calm the whole situation."Madam Ponny, he's my Boss, Please feel free and t
Chapter sixtyAfter some minutes, Desmond loosened his arms around her and wiped tears off her face. So they continued with the celebration."Tina, would you like to go back to my place with me?" Desmond asked and she nodded before she said, "I would like my parents to know that am travelling out of state with you.""We'll go and visit them before travelling," Desmond said and chuckled excitedly.******After two days they returned from Madam Ponny's house Eduardo called Dean to come over to his house and he went.Eduardo went to his study room with Dean. He switched on his laptop and tracked Cindy again, as he was still worried about her.The signal was still pointing at Madam Ponny's building, and then he stood up and walked out of his study room angrily. Dean followed him, both of them entered his car and he speedily drove out of his house.Dean asked, "Where are we headed to?" "You see that woman... She must tell me the truth today or else, she won't leave to see tomorrow." Edua
Chapter sixty-oneCindy smiled and walked closer to the bed, "What are you thanking me for? I should be the one to be grateful to God for allowing me to meet you again... Besides, you just saved my future. Please don't talk again to avoid stressing yourself... You need to rest now, okay?" Cindy asked, walked back to the sofa and sat down silently.After some minutes she said, "Don't hesitate to let me know if you need me to do anything for you."Madam Ponny nodded. Dean and Eduardo had Just finished their business discussion outside and the moment Dean made some steps to leave, he remembered that he had not asked Eduardo what was wrong with Madam Ponny as he was there with him, Then he called out, "Excuse me, Sir,"Eduardo heard his voice and halted, he looked back and saw Dean walking back towards him, so he gently asked, "Is there something we are forgetting?""No, Sir, I didn't ask to know what Madam Ponny's case was," Dean answered."Okay..."

Chapter sixty-two******Right beside the entrance of the ward stood Eduardo and Dean. "Dean, I'll handle this issue myself, I need to go and see my cousin... But I want someone who would stay around and take care of my mother till I return.""Don't worry, the security in the hospital is now strong, Look at that guy sitting over there, did you recognize him?"
