Getting Married
One – Marry his betrothed, Hannah- However, don’t forget that Hannah is fake. She is not the girl with the mark of an overlapping circle in her thighs, nor is she Charity Wakins granddaughter, Jake is merely using her to get access to the military base.
Two – Get back the silver ring from Diana – “I’m already working on this, if not why would I want to get closer to her? I can’t force her to give me the ring without the issue escalating, especially with her three Little Rugrats around!” Of a truth, if it escalated that the ring is not in his possession. Havoc, would erupt. He now has no idea, that Hannah and Jake Bernard are now aware that silver ring is not on his possession and would use it against him.
“I’m fine, Son! Just do the needful”.. Owens responded and the next second coughed out a mouthful of blood. His condition got infuriated when he got poisoned six years ago, thus he had been living this way, occasionally his condition rises and he coughs out blood and faints out and sometimes it get entirely suppressed.
“Richarlison!” Mark yelled out after he stood up from his earlier squatted position.
Richarlison didn’t waste time to arrive after he heard his name.
“Yes sir!” He answered with his heads faced down.
“Get my marriage arranged, it’ll be by evening….”
Talking about evening time…. He still has to meet his mum.
“No, make it tomorrow morning. I have an appointment today by evening!” Mark cut it, and with that said Richarlison left and would already be planning in making the arrangements.
Richarlison still had not gotten information or vital clue to find the intruder who infiltrated and killed the betrayal that attacked Diana last night. He is preoccupied with so many responsibilities. That’s however what it exactly means to be the president general personal assistant. If he had not sworn to protect his fellow comrades, Son! He would be complaining bitterly.
When he left, Mark started to feel a sense of reluctance. ‘How would Diana feel when she hears I’m getting married tomorrow?’ He snapped out of the thought murmuring. ‘Why should I even worry about her?’
‘You’re thinks about her?’ Owen’s who brightness had just returned to his face and still lying down on the couch close by asked Mark upon noticing his expression.
“No…. Just get well for me please!” Mark said
“Make sure nothing doesn’t happen to him!” He added, pointing at the medical officer. Afterwards, he left with an unreadable expression.
In a matter of time, the news had spread all through the Military Base that the president general was officially going to get married to Hannah, tomorrow by morning.
Presently, Diana is admiring the flowers the president general had personally brought her earlier as a gift from him for her, it was her birthday.
‘Ko ko ko!’ The Army medical knocked on the bedroom door. She is Grace.
‘Yes come in’ Diana said. She knew it must be her, Grace.
With that permission, She walked in and started what she was there to do.
Check her vitals and give her a doze of drugs/pills and ensure she gets well in no time.
That she was just doing. She too, is admiring the flower, she also loved the flower, it’s scent. All through Diana wouldn’t take her hands of it.
“Ma’am , Do you mind I ask you a question? ” Grace finally broke the silence.
“Yes…. what’s it?”
“I don’t remember perceiving this beautiful flowers scent before now and I don’t even remember you having such a beautiful and expensive flower. Who brought it for you? Are you celebrating something today?” Grace inquired.
“Yes, it’s my birthday and the president general bought and brought it for me” Diana responded. She didn’t even thought it through before saying.
For a moment, silence was a perfect word to describe the serenity of the bedroom. It was hard to believe that the president general would personally buy and bring in a flower as a gift for a birthday celebrant. He is known to be very cold and ruthless.
“Really?” Grace pressed further in disbelief.
“Yes….. Anything unsettling?” Diana asked upon noticing the change in tone of Grace.
“No, Ma’am…. Sorry if my question unsettled you. Just that the president general would be getting married to his fiancee tomorrow!” Said Grace.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“And I’m done, I’d be downstairs . Get some rest” Grace added and Diana nodded mischievously and annoyingly playfully. She nodded and also smiled bitterly.
She is pained and same time stunned. Just when she was beginning to think something was going to happen between them … boom! He is getting married. ‘why then did he started to lead me on?’ thoughts flashed through her mind.
Grace left the bedroom in conflicting thoughts. “Could be the president general bought them for her? He was the one who saved her last night and rumors has it that they have knew each other’
Meanwhile, Jake is making arrangements to come and present his options to Diana.
“EITHER LET ME TAKE CUSTODY OF MY KIDS AND TAKE THEM AWAY FROM YOU, OR MARRY ME SO THAT WE CAN LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER!”
“NOW, THAT THE SILVER RING IS NOT IN HIS POSSESSION, HE CAN’T CONTROL THE TRIADS AND IF THE TRIADS FIND OUT HE HAD LOST THE RING… THEY WONT TAKE IT LIKELY WITH HIM AND THE WHOLE CITY. THE RING SYMBOLISE THEIR EXISTENCE. KELLY OWENS INVENTED THE GROUP TO FIGHT TRIBALISM, FAVOURITISM AND RACISM BUT OVER TIME THIS AIM HAD BEEN ABANDONED AND LONG FORGOTTEN!”
“I have to report the issue to the triads to buy my freedom from them. I bet by now they’re planning on how to hurt me down and kill me!” Mark chuckled evil and laughed out loud that even employers passing by his office started to wonder.
“It seems the grace called Favour is on his side….”
To be continued………..
“Freely we serve
Because we freely love, as in our will
To love or not; in this we stand or fall.”
