Mr Johnson's POV

"Nurse,where is my wife?, how is she?,what about my baby?" I asked the nurse, fidgeting a bit as she was coming out of the theatre

"Calm down and exercise more patience sir, she will be okay"she answered as she approached me.

"For how long,huh?,it's been five hours ,five good hours, and you are telling me to calm down?" I asked anxiously, getting angry a bit.

"Please sir ,calm down,we are trying our best" the nurse answered and left immediately.

I went back to the hospital bench and sat down furiously, I prayed silently for my wife and child to be in safe hands.Have lost eight children already, i can't afford to lose another. They all died due to unfortunate circumstance, I pray this one come out safely

The doctor walked to me and said "Sir,can we talk in my office?" bringing me out of my deep thought.I looked at him,he wasn't smiling, I couldn't figure out what his expressions meant

"Can we?,he said leading the way as I followed behind, confused.

I hope its not what I'm thinking.

" Have your sit sir"he said, gesturing me to sit as we entered his office.I sat down quietly ready to hear the bomb shell.

"We lost the baby"He voiced out

I ran mad immediately " what? did I hear you say you lost my child?" I asked and stood up with rage and grabbed his lab coat collar "how could you be so careless doctor, how could you?"

"We are sorry,we tried our best but she couldn't make it" he said,calmly

I sank down on my chair "my baby"I said as I cried out bitterly, noooo.

"Take heart sir"he said trying to console me.

I brought out my handkerchief and wipe off my nose .

I sniffed and said "how is my wife?" after finding my voice

"She's perfectly alright ,she needs rest".

I just bend my head in pain with so many thoughts running in my mind " not again, how long will this last? What have I done to deserve this pain? Another child gone? This pain is too much for me to bear

I raised my head with tears dropping from my eyes "This is the ninth child I'm losing doctor, was I destined to not have a child?" I said to the doctor in tears

" What? Ninth child? This is very painful" He said, looking shocked

" Yes doctor,very painful" I said, still in tears

He heive and said " I can help you"

"Help me?how?" I asked, confused.

"A woman gave birth to a set of twins few minutes ago" He said

"So?"I asked, wiping my tears with my handkerchief

"Let's switch the babies"

"What?, you want to exchange my dead baby with hers? that's an heartless thing to do" I said,in a low and sober voice not buying the idea at all

"I'm trying to help your family, your wife cannot give birth anymore, her heart is weak and any bad news given to her might endanger her life,I know u wouldn't want that, would u?" He said

I sat down quietly thinking of what he said. I love my wife,i can't endanger her life, she's my life, I depend on her.she's all I have gotten. I looked at the doctor, he was busy checking out the documents, but I think his mind is on me. He's so heartless ,I know he must have been doing this type of stuffs. I scorned under my breath, how could he be so comfortable exchanging people's babies, God will punish him.God will punish you too, a voice in me echoed, you are also doing this job with him,the voice came again. I'm saving my wife .Gosh,God please forgive me.I have no other choice.

I continued checking out the doctor, he must be waiting to hear how much? ,or I agree ,or let's do it. "God!"I muttered, frustrated.

" Okay, I will do it. I have no other choice. I still love my wife and can't afford to lose her to bad news. So How much does it cost?" I finally asked, he looked up and smiled.

"20 million Naira" He answered, but this time,not smiling.

"Okay but please, don't get caught. Give me your account details, I'll forward the money to you shortly after I leave the hospital"

He nodded his head,picked a pen and wrote down his account details in a sheet of paper and handed it to me. I collected it and left his office without saying anything further

I went straight to my wife's ward,I saw her lying peacefully on the bed,her face looks pale,she must have suffered a lot. I sat on the bed, held her hands to mine

" How are you feeling now" I asked,

"I'm weak" she answered, weakly

" Please be strong" I said, still rubbing her palms. She nodded her head

I kissed her on the fore head and left the ward. I went outside ,located my car and zoomed out of the hospital building .

17 years later

Amelia grew up to be a very beautiful but spoilt brat. Her eye balls are big to adorn her oval face and the pupil is perfect. Her hair is thick black and long enough to swiftly caress the small of her back. Her lashes are too long to be true and the brow is too full and shaped that there will be no need to chaff them. Her nose is pointed and just so right for her face. Her lips are pink and perfectly made to be kissed.she has a full mouth that will make a full blooded man to think of rosebuds because they were so red. Her skin color is just perfect,it's very fair,soft,womanly and her curves were so made for a man's satisfaction, she is indeed a perfect definition of an angel in person

Amelia's POV

"what?, you can't do this again dad. I'm in need of that money,you can't just do this to me" I shouted angrily.

My dad has been torturing me for long,he doesn't listen to me, once I wondered whether he's my real dad because that's not how other dads treat their daughters, why is mine different?, my mum isn't a problem, she supports me and gives me all I want in life.

"sweetheart, are u there?",his voice echoes from the other side of the phone. yeah,I left home because he seized my phone,so I left home to my own house,my dad is super rich so I have my own house,now my dad's problem now was just because I wanted to buy a new dress for my friend's party tonight, he kept insisting I wear my old ones, he's so heartless, even when I left his house ,he kept disturbing my brain. Gosh!.

"I hope you heard me" he said and hang up. I didn't even hear a thing of what he was blabbing, he kept on blabbing and blabbing. Now let me call mum.

I dial her number,she pick up at the second ring.

"mom!" I shouted immediately she pick up.

"my baby ,is anything the matter?"

" Yes Mom, I'm not fine" I said

"aargh, don't tell me you are sick".she said

"Im not,Dad did it again, he called my manager,"I pouted.

"what?,what's wrong with your dad?,how could he?,I'm calling him now" she said and hang up.i smile

that's my mum for you, sweetest mum ever.

I hope she gets him to release the account.

"yea mum" I answered as she called again.

"baby,your dad refused.I guess you got to wait till tomorrow".

"No way mum,do what u can,I'm using it tonight.send me some money mum,I need this cash"

"sweetie,you know your dad too well,he freezed my account too" she said

"can't you do something about this?"I asked feigning a cry.

"Alright angel,don't cry,I will fix it right now" she said and hang up.I groaned. to hell with you dad, shit. I i opened my laptop, my friends were already at the party texting me.

" I will be a little bit late guys" I replied their text and close the laptop, feeling frustrated. I will be meeting Dave today, the thought of Dave gave me joy immediately. If only I could be in your heart just for an hour, i will be grateful but that bitch stole you away from me.

A message popped on my phone ,I opened it,it reads:

your nanny is coming with the money ,send someone to take the money.I smiled and typed I love u mum. Mummy is just the best. I called my manager immediately.

"yes ma'am"she said, immediately she pick up.

"send someone to bring the clothes and collect the money from my nanny at Vic's hotel"

"Okay ma'am".she said. I hung up and rushed into the bathroom. I came out and saw my phone ringing.my mum was calling.

"mom" I answered

"yea sweetie ,when are you coming home?" She asked

"As soon as dad changes his behaviour, I'll come home" I answered

"I'm missing you baby"She said.

" I'm missing you too mom"

"Then come home"

"Tell the old man to apologize to me then" I said

She chuckle and said "Hope you're eating well?"

"yeah,"

I looked at the wall clock,gosh I'm late.I'm cutting the call now .

"what are u doing now?"she asked

"Reading, mom" she chuckle again at my lame lie.

"we both know you're lying" she said laughing hard.

"Okay now, you caught me,I gat to go now"

"Take care of yourself baby. I love you"

I dropped my phone on the bed without replying ' I love you too'. someone knocked,that must be my maid.I opened the door and my maid handed me a bag.wow , some extra cash from mom. I love u mom ,I shouted happily and opened the bag to find the golden short dress. I wore the dress and went into my makeup room,applied some light makeup, wear on my expensive perfume and went outside happily. I signalled the maid to lock the house. I went into my car and drove off.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.
