Chapter 49
“Liam… baby… come on…”
“I don’t want you to hate me”
“I don’t hate you!” I yelled.
“Liam let’s go inside” the nanny took Liam away. I wanted to go after her but… what right do I have. The warmth I was feeling all melt away and I felt cold and alone.
Nanny out Liam down on his bed.
“Why did you take me away from mommy?
…, Am going back to her!” He said wiping his face but the nanny drag Liam back and slapped the little boy. He fell on the floor crying with his red cheeks.
“You mommy is going to die… grandma will kill her… so you must tell her to leave… do you want your mommy to die?”
“Nn… n… n… o” he cried
“Then tell her to go… if she stay by your side you shall die… now if your dad asked who hit you… tell him it was mommy!”
“No… that’s a big fat lie!!!” Liam yelled.
“Do you want your mommy to die?”
“No…”
“Then do as I say okay?, Trust nanny!”
“I hate you!”
I stood by the kitchen when my phone rang
“Hello boss (uncle)”
“Jolene how could you?”
“What’s going on?”
“Sasha… she was what?…, Noah…, how bad is she… no… how dare him touch one if my own!!” I ended the call.
I walk into his study and met Noah and Leon. Leon stood up as he saw me… I walk up to him and landed a punch on his cheek. Only his neck moved as blood roll down from his mouth.
“Gem!!!!” Noah yelled
“Don’t you ever lay your filthy hands on my people again… it’s my innocent parents enough!!!, You still wish to take Sasha away from me!!!!!, You know what… I regret ever coming back… ever seeing you Leon… yeah… I know my face disgust you now but guess what… you ain’t any different…, And as for you Noah… I’ll get back to you…” I slam the door and left…
Liam glared at the old nanny.
“You want me to tell Dad that mommy hit me right…?” He asked and the woman smiled. Liam walk towards the door and step outside his room. “Sorry nanny… I’ll never lie to daddy”
Before she could hold Liam he was already shouting.
“Daddy… daddy… daddy nanny is a witch… daddy!!!!!” Liam started running down the stairs.
I heard Liam shouting when I was about to reach the door.
“Liam!!” I yelled and run back into the house tracing his voice.
Leonel held Liam voice.
“Isn’t that my son?” He asked and before Noah could react Leon was already at the door.
Both Leon and Jolene got to Liam almost the same.
“Daddy…” He called since Leon was closer to him. “Nanny is a witch!!!”
I walked closer.
“Liam… what happened to your face?” Leon asked as his face darkened.
“It’s nanny…, She hit me and ask me to lie to you that mommy did!” He said.
My anger was unleashed. “She hit you?” I asked not minding the words that follow. I didn’t wait for his answer I climb upstairs.
She was standing by the door… I walk closer to her and landed a hot slap on her cheek… Immediately another followed. She was about to fall backwards but I pulled her back and grab her shirt.
Leon watched Gem… he eyes were no longer round and cute like his little kitten. It was bloodshot and deadly…
Jolene grab the woman’s neck… I was going to kill her she dare hurt my child…
Just then a strong hand hold my hands tight.
“Gem let go” Leon said.
“No… no… am going to kill her!!!!, She dare hurt my son!!!!”, I was not myself… looking at the woman it was like I was killing myself… killing the Gem who abandoned her 7 months old baby…
“Gem…” Leon know she wasn’t going to let go. He raise his hands and hold her face making her look at him. “K… Kitten…” He whispered.
He called me the name I’ve been dying to hear… my grip released from the woman’s neck… I could hear her coughing.
“Am… am sorry,… Leon… I…”
Leon grab her as she was about falling. “Gem gem!!!!!” He yelled
“Mommy!!!” Liam yelled.
“Carry Liam inside… I’ll take care of her” he said and carried Gem…
He wanted to take her to the guess room but… he didn’t know when he arrives at his room…
She was sweating all over… continuously… she kept on shaking.
Leon called Noah and told him to call Doctor Chen.
Noah and Leon waited in the room.
“No… no…” She whispered in her sleep “take me back… no… please… take me back… please…”
Leon find the word strange but Noah understand it all.
Doctor Chen frown.
“You found your wife?”
“Just do your job and stop the useless question!” Leon yelled.
“She’s on drugs… it’s a drug which normal help her relax… like a sleeping drug but… this drug she’s taking it too high of it which made her clear her memory a little bit. She’ll be fine… I’ve injected soon syndrome into her drip… it will flush her system… she’ll be fine” he said
Leon went back to his study room. Noah came to join him shortly after.
“Sir aren’t you going to ask me get condition?” Noah asked
“Why should I?” Leon asked
“I saw how worried you were minutes ago…”
“I don’t know Noah… I don’t want to be that Leon anymore… the Leon from two years ago… I don’t want her close to me…”
“There is something you have to know about Gem… Actually… here… it’s a video clip… I can’t tell you with my mouth… just watch” Noah said
“What’s in the clip?” Leon asked.
“Just watch sir… I’ll leave you alone now…”
Leon fixed the memory card on his USBC and insert it on his laptop… he watch quietly… it was Sasha … it was his torture house… why was Sasha in his torture house?
“She didn’t leave… we… we took her… we drugged her and carried her out… she wanted to come back… but we made her scared… Gem never wanted to leave…”… Leon was speechless…
Grandma eyes got wide as she knew Gem was back.
“Mom… Please don’t hurt her” Leon mother said
“Why should I?, I just hope she’ll forgive me… I ruined everything… I was the one who hurt her, I took her family away from her… I almost killed her child, my own great grandchild…” She cried.
“It’s okay mom… Gem will forgive you… I know she will…”
Sasha was awake. She glared at her uncle.
“You’re awake?” He asked
“Uncle… who are you?” She asked and his eyes wide open.
“Did you hit your head and lose your memory??” He said
“No… i know what am saying…” She rub her head “I remember now… you… you’re”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“Am what?”
“You’re the real murderer… you…”
“I never wanted you to know Sasha…”
“I remembered… that same night… you… you came home with blood… lots of blood in your shirt…” She climb off the bed “you are the one who killed Gems parent!!!!”
“Of course am the one… Hardin had everything… I was the one who brought him into the Mavis family as a work but he got they’re favour instead of me…, He not only take my position… he took the woman I love…!”
“How could you!!!?” Sasha yelled. “You used Gem”
“I don’t care… but Sasha you seem to know too much… and too much of everything is bad… I can’t let you live… since I can’t get Gem’s mother… I’ll get the child!”
Leon watched Gem sleeping face. Liam was seating close to him.
“Daddy is mommy really really sick…?”
“Yes… but she’s fine now… She’ll wake up soon” he said.
“You still hate mommy for leaving?”
