Brian?
I paced up and down the hospital hallway waiting for anyone… Just anyone to come out of the operation theatre. I feel like I’ll run mad with anxiety of not knowing what’s wrong with my wife.
I drove my fin-gers throu-ghmy alre-ady scattered hair and looked at br@d. He looks exhausted. I feel so guilty. We’ve been here for hours now but still no news. The nurses are just going in and out. No one is re-ady to tell us anything.
Zara walked over to me and held my hands,“I pray cousin in-law and the baby are alright. I’m so sad this had to happen on your birthday.” I moved away from her and tried desperately to hold my tears in.
I don’t care about the fu-cking birthday. Kitty has to be fine. She has to stay strong for me. I can’t bear staying in this world all alone without her. I swear if anything happens to her, I’m gonna kill myself. Wherever she goes, I’ll follow her.
I was just to bang on the door when the red light changed to green and they wheeled my kitty out of the room. She looks so exhausted and completely pale. Her eyes are still not open. When I to-uched her b©dy, it’s a little bit cold but she’s still breathing.
The nurses wheeled her to a room. I was about to follow them when the doctor pu-lled me back. He looked at Zara and br@d before saying,“Mr Faye I have to talk to you pri-vately.”
I nodded and followed him after telling my siblings to wait for me. As soon we got into the office, the doctor sighed sadly. I frowned worried.
“Is my wife alright?,” I asked and he nodded yes. I breathe in dee-ply feeling relieved. “What about our baby? Is she alright also?”
“That’s what I want to tell you about. Sir, we tried but couldn’t save your baby…” as he said this, my whole world spinned. My kitty… My poor little kitty.
“We also carried out some tests and found out that your wife has been taking something that has large amount of slee-ping pills lately. And slee-ping pills aren’t recommended for pregnant women cause it causes deficiencies in the children,” he paused noticing I’m not saying anything.
Then he continued,“Because her foetus isn’t very strong yet and she took the slee-ping pills consecutively, It caused the loss of your baby. I’m sorry for your loss. And I really hope it won’t affect your wife mental state cause of her kleptomania,” he said.
I slowly walked out of the office. The baby… The poor little kitty we have all been waiting for is gone… Gone just like that. slee-ping pills? I’ve never seen kitty taking any slee-ping pills.
I feel so bitter inside. She’s only been taking that bird nest snack. Someone deliberately tried to kill our baby and succeeded. I couldn’t even do anything to save our baby.
I covered my face trying not to cry. “I’ve failed you kitty… I’ve failed you. I couldn’t save our little kitty. Now there will be no little kitty or little hubby.”
I walked to her ward but they wouldn’t let me see her. I told Zara and br@d what had happened. They are all so worried of how Ivy will take the news.
Mom and dad even came to the hospital. Mom is pretty sad that she didn’t even get to greet her first grandchild. Dad suggested that as soon as this disaster pas-ses over, we investigate the slee-ping pills issue.
The nurses and doctors had to for-ce us all to leave the hospital. They wouldn’t let us see her claiming she nee-ds to recover and doesn’t nee-d any disturbance.
For the first time since our marriage, I walked into my house feeling hopeless and helpless like I’ve never felt before.

?️?Next morning
Unknown pov ?
Brian ran into the hospital not even bothering with the umbrella his b©dyguards held out for him. He ran towards the VVIP ward not worried at how w-et he is.
The doctor had just called him about Ivy causing a ruckus in the hospital. ‘She’s out of our control,’ he said. Brian could hear shouts and sounds of things being smashed as he reached the room.
He opened the door and was stunned to see the state his wife is in. Tears immediately filled his eyes and clogged his throat.
“No madam don’t ~carry that… Please madam… It’s glas-s… It can hurt… You’ve not recovered from your surgery yet,” the nurses tried to plead but Ivy didn’t~ even act as if she heard them.
She lifted the heavy glas-s vase with her shaky hands and smashed it on the floor. Pieces scattering everywhere. Some even piercing into her hands. The nurses screamed moving back. The room is now in an unrecognizable state.
Ivy walked around shakily. She can’t walk properly due to the surgery she had. She suddenly stopped and cried out holding her stomach. “My poor baby… I can’t feel my baby in me. I can’t feel him.” She stood again and picked another stuff to smash on the floor again.
Her hands now bloody. The nurses screamed again. Brian finally let his tears out. Since he was a child, he couldn’t remember the last time he cried. His kitty is in this state all because of them. ‘Why did they do this us?,” he asked over and over again trying to find a desperate answer.
Ivy turned around and saw him. She walked slowly to him and smiled out tears. “My baby… My baby… My little hubby,” she didn’t say anything other than my baby. The nurses took the chance and injected her with a sedative.
She fell into his arms, her eyes slowly closing. “I nee-d my baby…My baby…” she murmured even with her eyes ti-ghtly closed alre-ady. Brian took her to the b£d and put her to b£d slowly. He ki-ssed her forehead and let the nurses dress her wounds.
The doctor came in and talked to him. “Sir if your wife keeps going at this rate. We’ll have to transfer her to a asylum. Her mental state wasn’t strong and this happened.”
He glared at the doctor angrily,“You mean you think my wife is going insane. Doctor I don’t want to end up in prison that’s why I won’t strangle you right now. Never say this shitty stuff again. She’ll be fine. She’ll be fine for me.”
He gulped in fear and nodded before leaving. Brian glanced at the b£d and stared at Ivy. He then walked out of the ward feeling suffocated.
He hadn’t even gone far when he b-umped into Louis. I hope y’all remember Louis. The guy from Australia who is Brian’s long-term enemy.
He glanced at Brian’s disheveled appearance and teary eyes. “Aww I heard Mama’s boy got a secret wife and they just lost their first baby,” he taunts excepting Brian to at least fight back like before.
But Brian only shook his head tiredly,“ Let’s see if you’ll act this way when this happens to you.” Louis laughed,“ I don’t plan on ever getting married. Marriage is for pussies like you.”
He then walked away. If only, he knows that Brian’s words would eventually come to pas-s, he wouldn’t have behaved so haughtily. Well that’s also a story for another day.
Brian sat down on the waiting seats. He made urgent calls to his office.

Susan ♣️
I laughed as I looked at the reports Tj se-nt to me now. He’s such a darling. I owe him many nights of fun. I re-re-ad the pages again. So that bit-ch is a Klepto.
No wonder there’s a saying that ‘No one is perfect.’ She was also pregnant. But apparently she lost the bastard last night. That’s why we couldn’t find her. All this happened in my favour.
Mhmm! I searched about her illness and smiled upon seeing the results. So kleptomania is a mental disorder. Let me get dressed and go to the hospital to taunt her. Maybe I can finally make her fully insane since she alre-ady has p@rtial mental disorder.
*** *** ***
As I walked into her room, I glanced at the bit-ch on the b£d while pa-nting heavily. I had to bribe some nurses and hide from some people before they let me in. Gosh! There’s not a single nurse in her room. They are such fools. Why would they leave her all alone in her room?
Well I don’t care. I seem to have good luck these days. I went to the b£d and shook her awake. I shook her rou-ghly. She sluggishly opened her eyes and sat on the b£d staring at me fearfully. Is she alre-ady insane cause she’s behaving completely different from when we met at the office?
I brou-ght out my phone and showed her a cute baby picture. I whispered gently,“See your baby.”

Ivy?
I stared at the strange woman fearfully. She looks awfully familiar. She brou-ght out her phone and showed me a picture of a cute baby. “See your baby,” she whispered and I smiled.
My baby is so cute. As I was about to tou-chthe screen she swiped the picture to another one. This one is the picture of that same baby but the baby is covered with red thing all over. Is that blood?
“Your baby,” she smi-rked evilly pointing at the screen. I looked at the picture and remembered what had happened earlier. I woke up in a strange room with lots of nurses… My cloth was filled with blood before I lost consciousness… I couldn’t feel my baby when I woke up.
I hurriedly to-uched my stomach and screamed loudly. “My baby… My baby… I nee-d my baby…,” I mumble over and over again shivering on the b£d. I can’t take this emptiness that I feel in me. My poor baby…

Brian rushed into the room as soon as he heard Kitty scream. He had only left for a minute to get something and as soon he came back, he panicked to hear kitty scream.
On getting to the room, he frowned seeing that there’s not a single nurse in her room and Susan was there. He looked at kitty shaking terribly on the b£d mumbling something and his heart ti-ghtened painfully.
Susan was trying to hide her sm-irk. The bit-ch must have done something to make kitty behave this way. He walked over to her and she finally noticed him. The sm-irk on her face turning to a look of fear.
She moved backwards slightly and tried to say,“Brian… Brian… Trust me. I didn’t do…” A ha-rdand loud slap stopped her words. She hurriedly held her right cheek in pain.
Brian slapped her other cheek furiously and she screamed in pain. She looked up and g@sped in fear as she noticed how angry he looks.
“What… Did… You… Do… To… My… Wife?,” he asked in a lowly and dangerous tone. Susan couldn’t answer as she silently regrets coming to the hospital. Her cheeks are still throbbing from the pain and becoming swollen.
Brian still angry at the thought that she had the guts to come to the hospital, ti-ghtened his hands around her ne-ck and gradually choked her.
She coughed out in pain and tried to scream for help but couldn’t get any words to come out. Luckily, a doctor pas-sed by and saw what is going on in the room. He pressed a bu-tton to summon help and quickly tried to help Susan out of Brian’s ti-ght grasp.
Another doctor with few nurses came in. The doctors succeeded in holding Brian who was still struggling. Susan staggered back in fear coughing loudly.
“Let me go… I’ve been forgiving all her misdeeds… But today she’s done something to kitty… I have to show her where she belongs,” Brian said still struggling with the doctors, anger completely clouding his vision.
Susan has finally recovered from the shock of being choked to death. She looked at Ivy and said haughtily,“She’s not the first person to have a miscarriage. It’s just that she has a weak mental state making her insane from that little incidence. Brian your wife is insane. She’s a mad person.”
“I swear I’m gonna kill you.. ,” Brian uttered angrily now struggling fiercely but couldn’t get out of the ti-ght grasp of the two doctors. Susan took the chance and escaped from the room. She isn’t re-ady to die yet.
The nurses then rushed over to Ivy. One of them brou-ght out an injection of sedative and was about to inject her when Brian noticed.
“Don’t you dare tou-chher? You just gave her sedative and you want to give another one now. You guys are so incompetent. You want to kill my wife,” he rants and the doctors hurriedly let him go.
He looked at the doctor in charge of treating Ivy and said,“ I’m gonna make sure you and these fools you call nurses gets sacked. You had the guts to leave my wife all alone.”
The doctor gulped in fear and tried to plead but Brian commanded them to leave. As soon as they vacated the room, he went to the b£d and hu-gged Ivy. She’s sitting up with her eyes ti-ghtly closed, her hands are on her che-st as she cries and say something quietly.
As soon as Brian hu-gged her, he could hear what she’s saying. ‘I can’t take it… I can’t take it… My baby… I nee-d my baby’ Brian blinked back the tears in his eyes and gently rocked her like a baby.
“Sssh… It’s okay… Stop crying… We can make more babies… It hurts to see you like this,” he whispered as he planted ki-sses on her forehead.
Ivy doesn’t appear to have heard a word he said. She only burrowed into his warm embr@ce sobbing quietly. His shirt gradually becomes w-et with her tears.
He keeps on consoling her until she finally falls asleep. As soon as she sle-pt, he was about to leave but she hu-gged him ti-ghtly not letting go. He looked at her and saw that she’s alre-ady asleep but she’s stubbornly holding on ti-ght to him… As if afraid to let go.
He chuckled and ki-ssed her nose before he lie down on the b£d with her. Thankfully, the b£d is big enough to contain them. After few minutes, he stands from the b£d and this time she didn’t hold him back.
He tucked in her b£d carefully and finally left the room. He went to the doctor’s office immediately. When the doctor saw him, he immediately starts to plead profusely again.
Brian ignored his plea and said,“Make the necessary procedure and paperwork. I want my wife discharged today. I’ll pay doctors and nurses to take care of her at home.”
“But sir, it’s not right and wise to get her discharged now. She’s just had a surgery yesterday and her wound hasn’t fully recovered. It’s dangerous to move her in that state,” the doctor tried to protest.
Brian glared at him,“I give you just five minutes to do what I asked or I’ll make sure not only do you get sacked, this hospital will also shut down. Who are you to tell me it’s unwise? Didn’t you know that you should teach your nurses it’s unwise to leave a patient alone.”
The doctor gulped in fear knowing fully well that he’s in dee-p trouble now. He quickly bowed and started to do the necessary procedure. Once he was throu-gh, he handed a file to Brian.
“Sir… It’s done sir,” he said quietly. Brian collected the file and checked the i.d card around the doctor’s collar. He quickly memorised his name and turned to leave.
The doctor was alre-ady breathing peacefully seeing Brian about to leave but when he suddenly turned around again the doctor’s breathe ceased in fear.
“Expect a word from my lawyer today. You are going to pay a fine for interfering in my personal matter and letting that bit-ch escape,” Brian muttered and the doctor fell down to his knees.
He’s sure whatever fine he has to pay will cost his entire life savings. “Sir… I only did that for you… I didn’t want you to kill someone,” the doctor pleaded now sweating profusely.
“That’s why you are a doctor. Even if I killed that bit-ch there’s no nee-d to se-nd that bit-ch to a hospital since we are alre-ady in one. You could have just packed her dead b©dy and save me the stress of getting rid of it,” Brian answered and left.
In any other situation, the doctor would have laughed at Brian’s answer but right now this concerns his life. He might as well resign before the lawyer comes for him.

Brian?
Hey don’t think of me that way. I’m not a bad person. I only said what I said to scare the doctor and the fool totally believed me. That serves him right. Next time he won’t behave so carelessly.
Well that bit-ch Susan is still gonna pay for whatever she did to kitty. Since she doesn’t want to leave the country peacefully, I’ll make her leave for-cefully. That’s after I teach her a very good lesson that she won’t ever dare to come near kitty again.
I brou-ght out my phone and called Tim.
? Hello boss, how’s madam doing?- that’s the first thing he asked me. Everyone including the servants love kitty so much. She’s so lovable.
?She’ll get better. I’m going to se-nd a picture of a bit-ch that tried to hurt your madam now…- he didn’t even let me finish
?se-nd it right away. I know what to do. I’ll even do more than what you want me to do. How dare she try to hurt madam?- he answered and I smiled.
? Just torture her don’t kill her.
?She will wish she was dead boss- he said and cut the call. I looked at my phone. What p@rt of DON’T-KILL-HER doesn’t he un-derstand?
I shook my head amused and called Zara.
? Cousin thank God you called. I feel like I’m going to se-nd someone to accompany sister in-law in the hospital right now!!! I’m going to murder br@d!!
?Woah… Woah… Calm down. What did he do?- I asked wondering what that brother of mine did this time.
? Cousin, br@d went to the mall and emptied an entire section of stuffed kitty dolls. He says he miss sister in-law and hopes that if she sees the dolls she’ll get better
?I don’t un-derstand what’s wrong with that? He has a good intention in mind- I asked confused.
? Nothing is wrong… Nothing is really wrong… But he used my credit card!!!- she screamed.
I had to move the phone away from my ear. br@d is so dead this time. I know how obsessed Zara is with shopping. A day doesn’t pas-s by without her using that credit card for online shopping.
?What happened to his?
?He was fooled by a bit-ch he met at last week and lost his credit card to her. So he stole mine. Cousin he didn’t even buy cheap dolls. They are worth millions. Oh! My poor credit card- she said the last statement with a crying tone.
I think br@d showed up then cause I heard her scream and fast their footsteps around the room like she’s chasing him. She’s alre-ady dropped the phone. I sighed and cut the call. They are so childish. I’ll just get her another card when I get home.
I called my chauffeur to come pick us at the hospital immediately. I can’t count on Zara and br@d right now cause they are still settling their childish issue.
After the last call, I went back to kitty’s ward. She’s still asleep. I went over and sat next to her on the b£d. Then I gently pat her hair and observe her slee-ping figure. Her complexion still looks as pale as when she was brou-ght to the hospital.
I hope she gets better soon. I shrugged out of my thoughts when I saw her move. She lifted her hand weakly and to-uched mine. “Why did you leave? I missed you,” she said so quietly that I almost didn’t hear her. When I did, I smiled and whispered seeing she’s probably still asleep and just sleep-talking,“I’m here now… Just relax and sleep, okay.”
I bent down and ki-ssed her.

Tonia ?
I gritted my teeth angrily. I made such a stupid mistake and the deadline he gave me is drawing closer and closer. Why didn’t I checked the drug before giving her?
Well, at least her little bastard is gone now. I looked at Mrs Helen who’s knitting peacefully unware of what happened to her poor Ivy. I smiled, I can’t wait for the real fun to begin. No one will ever suspect me… And I still have to find a way to take care of that bit-ch once an for all…
