Chapter 22
David Maynard
📱.. Hello Officer, I need a small favor from you, actually my Aunt is dead, she has been taken to the mortuary right now. We don't know the killer yet, can you please help me with the fingerprints of the killer? After you're done I want you to find out if there are cameras in the hospital? If there's no cameras I also want to know why? Please provide that information as soon as you can"
"Yes sir I understand"
The call disconnected.
I headed to my car, Alessia Mandy and Bruno were already in the car. I arrived at the car Bruno wanted to open a car door for me but I was already in the car. Alessia and Mandy were sitting on the back, me and Bruno were in the front....
"Can we go home now?" Bruno asked
Alessia: Yes please, take us to my house not to David's"
David: Bruno let's go home, to my mansion"
Alessia: No Bruno, I mean sir Bruno please don't listen to David, listen to me"
David: Bruno listen to me. I am your boss. I said drive the car let's go back to the mansion"
Alessia: Bruno you have to listen to me instead of David ok.
Bruno: Ma'am David is my boss I have to listen to him"
Alessia: I am the girl he loves, whatever I say he'll listen. I said drive us home, not to the mansion" Alessia whispered, I was stealing a glance at her through the car mirror but she didn't see it. Seems like she was serious. Bruno turned to me and said
"I'm now confused, David wants to go to the mansion? The girl he loves doesn't want to. Guys both of you you're giving me a headache. Tell me one thing where should I drive to?
Alessia: To my place"
David: No, to the mansion"
Mandy: Holy crap! My mother is dead, can we respect that matter at least?"
David: Oh yeah sure... Bruno let's take them home"
"You're now talking sir. Let me drive now"
Bruno started driving. We headed to Alessia's place and in no time we had already arrived. As the car stopped, Mandy headed inside
"David thank you so much for everything. I really appreciate it, and I am really sorry for the wasted money you spent on Aunt Gini's treatment"
"It's okay, you're welcome. So when will the body be taken out of the mortuary?" I asked her
"Well I think tomorrow, I need to talk to Mandy first. I wish I could tell all the relatives but we don't know anyone. So yeah it's only me and Mandy. So we'll decide but I think we have a little problem and you can solve it?"
"Keep going baby"
"We don't have money to buy a coffin, and the car who'll carry the body to heroes"
"Don't worry, leave that to me. Go home and relax. I will come with Ariel tonight, we'll spend our night here. I just want to comfort you guys"
"Thank you so much David but I think you should be with your family"
Bruno: He said he wants to be with you, so Queen shhh relax. Let him take care of you"
David: Bruno shut up"
Alessia: Well I think I should go"
Alessia said as she got out of the car. Bruno took Alessia's hand and said
"Wait... Not like that, David come on, hug your girl first"
"Bruno, what's your problem?" Alessia asked
"David you're my boss but when it comes to Alessia we are friends, come on bro hug her if you can't then I'll hug her" I knew Bruno very well, to end the story was to give Alessia a hug, I got out of the car and gave her a hug and said
"Don't mind Bruno, he is my favorite bodyguard. He is loyal and faithful. He cares about my happiness more than anyone does, I've been single for years so he is happy that I finally found someone"
"I understand, thank you so much but don't bother coming ok" she replied.
"No I am coming, despite that I am bringing someone too. A special person"
"A special person?" She asked, then I knew that she was now curious to meet the special person. And obviously she wasn't gonna say no...
"Fine you can come" she replied. I kissed her forehead and got back in the car.
"By the way she is beautiful, indeed" Bruno interrupted.
"Yes she is, by the way let's go to the airport and welcome Nomsa. Then tonight don't worry I can drive Nomsa and Ariel to Alessia's house, we'll sleep at their place tonight"
"With Nomsa? I mean Nomsa she is not sleeping in the mansion? I mean she has just arrived so she must spend some time with others"
"Bruno are you crushing on my sister now?" I asked him, the way he was talking as if he was hiding something from me....
After some time we arrived at the airport, Bruno and I were the only ones who knew about Nomsa's arrival and everyone else it was a surprise. When she saw me she ran to me and surprised me with a huge hug
"Long time sweet brother. How are you?"
"I am fine, beautiful sister. I missed you so much"
"I miss you too Dee... Well hi Bruno" she said while giving Bruno a tight hug, they hugged each other for a while. Of course Nomsa was kind to everyone she didn't choose but the hug they shared even a 5 month old child can tell that these two were more than just I thought.
"Bruno I miss you so much."
"I miss you too Nomsa"
"Nomsa you're my sister, Bruno you're my favorite person. And both of you can't hide anything from me right? Tell me what's going on between you?" I asked. Bruno remained quiet, Nomsa said
"Bruno help me carry these bags, let's go to the car, I'll explain everything" she added. We headed back to the car, Bruno was in the front driving while Nomsa and I were in the back seat.
Nomsa: Brother I and Bruno we are in love"
David: What? S-...."
Nomsa: Shhhh let me finish, I was so afraid that if I say it you'll fire him. Just because he is a worker and also you know how my mother is. Mrs. Katie she is horrible. That's why I kept this from you and the rest of the family. I am madly in love with Bruno"
David: Bruno? Ohh actually I have nothing to say. I wish you all the best guys"
"Sir are you really supporting my relationship with your sister?" He asked
" Totally, I am supporting you but keep it low. If Mrs Katie found out that you are in love it won't end well. My dad doesn't have a problem but our mother is the root of all the problems"
"Ohh I know, hey you told me about the girl she brought home?" Nomsa asked
"Yes, it's Pinky she brought Pinky home. I'm not into her. I love someone else"
"Yeah you told me about the girl you love, so can I see her? I mean remember I invited her to my birthday?"
"Well sad news, her Aunt passed away. So she is in pain, I'm sure she won't agree but the best thing we can all do, the four of us, you, Bruno me and Ariel is to visit them tonight and sleep there together, comforting them"
"I don't mind, we'll go" Nomsa added.
When we got home, when Mrs Katie saw her daughter she screamed with joy, they hugged each other.
"Where is Ariel and my stepfather?" Nomsa asked...
"Ariel is upstairs"
Mandy
"Alessia I need to talk to you" I heard Mandy's voice in my sleep, I opened my eyes slowly and saw her standing next to my bed crying...
"Mandy it's okay, stop crying..."
"No, I am not crying because of my mother. I am crying because of the way I treated you at the hospital. I am truly sorry. I know I don't deserve your forgiveness but just know that I am sorry" I got up from the bed and gave her a hug and whispered back
"It's okay. Let the past be. Let's move on"
"Thank you so much"
"You're welcome, by the way David and Ariel they are coming tonight, so stop crying we should both bath and wait for them"
"They are coming? Really?. Mr Maynard is the most humble person I've ever met. He is a billionaire, he is leaving his mansion and all of money juts to spend some time with us in this small little house?"
Ringing....
"Wait, it's Ethan calling?"
"Hello Ethan? What do you want?"
📱... My love, my sweetheart, my Queen, standwa sami, the mother of my unborn child, my mother is coming, I think you should meet your future mother-in-law"
