Lily kept silent. She stared at Nix who looked at her back blankly. She looked at Betty and walked away
"Ouch" Nix groaned in pain when Betty had kicked him
"Why did you say that?"she asked angrily
"You know if we get married I'll have to use other means to hold you down if you try to hit me"
"You...." She tried to hit him again but he held her hand
"Stop it" he glared at her coldly. Betty was stunned for a minute. She had never seen nix act like this towards her no matter how many times she had kicked him
"Why was he now acting like this?" she thought. She ran to him and hugged him tightly from behind
"Let go" he said curtly
But she shook her head, he tried to free himself from her but she clutched unto him tightly.
He turned to face her, she took the opportunity and kissed him deeply. When he returned the kisses she pulled back
"I'm sorry" she said
"Show me that you are?" and he carried her bridal style into the house.
Lily sighed as she watched the couple walk into the house.
Her phone rang
"Hey...how are you....where are you?"
"Am fine Charles"
"Are you sure?" he asked noticing a change in her tone
"Mm"
"Can i come over?" he asked still not convinced
"No" she replied
"Ill come over" she added and hung the call.
She decided to go by a cab rather than fancy entrancies. When she has begun to move she noticed that a black Jeep had been on track with her's. She kept calm, as if she didn't notice. The car came to a halt at Charles apartment, she walked out gracefully
First shot
Second shot
A gun was fired at her while she stood smiling as if she felt nothing. The man was about to fire another on her forehead when his vision went blank.
Lily turned and saw the driver about to escape. She signaled to the bodyguards who she knew were sent by Mr Noah Thor to protect her. They dragged the man as he laid on her feet.
The man cried like a child she bent down to him
"Please Mrs Thor don't kill me please please Mrs Thor have mercy on me"
"Mrs Thor?" a familiar voice echoed from behind her
Lily turned to the voice and there stood Charles.
"Miss shall we..."
"No keep him in the confinement room" she replied breaking her gaze from Charles.
They nodded and bowed
She walked into Charles apartment without explaining anything to him she sat down making herself comfortable as she turned the television on.
Charles walked in with a dark expression visible on his face. He was about to ask her who the man was referring to When he heard a voice
It Was Mr Noah Thor, he was in a press conference and he was about to begin his speech so everyone fell silent including Charles.
"I'm sure your all wondering who my daughter in law is. I wouldn't want any misinformation or Rumors so i had decided to on my own tell you all who my sons wife is and for many of you who had eyes on him or those who though my son would never get married My son Dilan Thor is engaged to Lily Wen who would soon become Mrs Thor lily. The date for the wedding would soon be disclosed" he summarised and came down.
Lily looked at Charles who had his eyes fixed on her. She stood up and left without uttering a word. When she had left charles turned his room inside out, he threw all the vases and broke almost everything into pieces when there was nothing else to vent his anger on he punched his wall so hard that his hand bleed profusely but he didn't seem to care as he repeated the action on his second hand.
"You must pay for my blood....Dilan" he said in Disgust.
