EPISODE FOURTY
I tried calling him back but he’s not picking the call.
Oh, God!
He might leak what happened between us to then, And the drive as well!
Geez!
What do I do?
I pressed my lips together trying to think of a solution but I couldn’t find anyone, All my boys have been cleared, I have nothing to hide again.
Then, I will have no choice than to ruin the Alvarez corporations before I surrender everything to the cops.
I rushed to Zoe office, She was busy working on the files I gave to her.
” Hey”I called almost in a whisper, She looked up to me and smiled.
Poor girl!, Who knows maybe I’m going to clear you out of my way?.
” Hi, How have you been? “She asked softly and I nodded.
” Fine”I mouthed before walking up to her.
” We need to look for the documents that contains all the properties Alvarez own, we do t have much time by our side anymore, We need to act fast”
” Really?, but do we have to take the documents?, There are enough money on ground”She said softly, Trying to persuade me.
” We can’t act like this, We need to be in charge of The Alvarez corporations so Maynard can crawl back to us, Don’t you like to be in charge of things like this?”I asked with a wink and she smiled.
” Sure, the documents should be in one of the files here, I will look for it before the end of the day”
” Alright”

” How about Dad?”I asked Royce as we walked into the garden and he smiled.
” I didn’t allow Brea to see him, Mrs. Cora told me he’s getting better”
” Please, Tighten the security, And don’t allow any one to touch Magnolia”
” Sure I won’t, One of my boys reported to me that they saw a man dress in white coat in her house, I guessed the person is a doctor, But not to worry, She’s doing fine ”
” Thank you”

THREE MONTHS LATER~
MAGNOLIA POV
I entered the hospital smiling at the nurses, Life had been going on pretty good for me. Except Brea who has been bossing around the company, Making life hard for all of us.
I reconciled with Gael but I don’t have anything for him anymore, I learnt that he knew Nothing about Fleur becoming the secretary of the company.
Fleur learnt she was pregnant three months ago, I almost laughed at her after scolding me when I learnt I’m pregnant, Although I knew she’s carrying Mateo’s baby, I persuaded her to let Mateo arrived before deciding on what to do with the baby.
Mom visited me two days ago for a proper check up, We all are expecting the baby, Except Maynard, I didn’t inform him about the baby so I don’t know how he will feel.
There has been rumour that he will be back before the end of the month, I hope he gets better.
I missed him so much.
Getting to the doctor’s office, He was scribbling some things down as usual.
He’s always busy.
” Good Morning Doctor”I beamed and he chuckled at me.
” You seemed to be in a good and better mood today, What happened?”He asked staring at me keenly and I laughed.
” Nothing much, I was just happy, Hoe was the test? “I asked and he drooped.
He insisted to let me undergo a test after completing my first trimester, I’ve been anticipating the health of my baby.
I hope he’s fine.
Little Maynard.
” Is there a problem?”I asked immediately I noticed his countenance and he shook his head.
” You’re a single mother, I don’t know how you will feel about this”
” I’m not a single mother, My boyfriend traveled”I corrected immediately and he nodded.
” The tests shows that you’re carrying twins, I can’t reveal the gender to you until the father of the baby is here”
” Twins?”I respected gobsmacked.
Twins?
How come?
I’m still trying hard as possible to believe that I’m carrying a baby but twins?
” How come?,” I sobbed and he touched my hands.
” It’s fine, They are healthy, I will make sure you won’t have any complications during child birth”
” Thank you, Can I leave now? “I asked quickly and he nodded.
” Yes, you can leave now, Make sure you use your drugs as prescribed”
” Sure”

BREA POV
It’s been three months, I walked into the office with my head high as usual.
It’s been three months of peace for me, Maynard restricted me from seeing my husband but who cares?
As long as I’m in power, Zoe has been of help to me lately.
I couldn’t help but love her.
She’s the best.
I ordered my guards to track Dad and they found him easily, Silly Maynard.
He couldn’t even protect them well.
Since they have been cleared, The drive has been destroyed as well, After sending an anonymous message to Maynard, He refused to reply but who cares.
I now have the properties wrapped around my fingers.
” Good Morning Ma’am ” Magnolia greeted respectfully, After threatening her countless times and witheld her salary for two months, She learned hie to respect me.
” Have you cleaned my office? ”
” Yes Ma’am, I just left there, In heading to Zoe office now”
” Alright, You can go”

MAGNOLIA POV
I entered the office and met Zoe working on the computer.
” Good Morning Ma’am”I greeted respectfully and she nodded.
” How are you? ”
” I’m fine, Thank you “I mumbled and she walked up to me.
Zoe collected the mopping stick from me and sighed.
” How about Gael?, Is he fine?”
” Yes of course, I assumed that he’s your brother, You should know more about him than I do, He’s doing fine, We talked just now”
” Can you please help me talk to him?”She pleaded and I smiled.
” God in heaven knows that Gael will neot Forgive you for the damages you caused, I’m surprised that a whole Zoe, The secretary of Alvarez corporations could cut ties with her family because of wealth?, Did you know Maynard will come back someday?, He will come back to right all the wrongs you guys did, And I’m sure you won’t be able to withstand this”
” I have a confession to make, About Brea, She’s….. ”
” I don’t want to hear anything from you, u I will appreciate if you can let me do my work “I smiled before taking the mop from her hand.
Just then, Her personal assistant walked into the office, He’s quite in a hurry.
” What happened? “She asked trying to hide her face so he won’t know that she’s been crying but the latter doesn’t seem to notice it.
” Maynard is back, He’s here with Mateo, The former secretary”
