Twist Of Fate: Three Little Miracles

Meanwhile, Jake at his office had received the news about the fake ring!

He kept on pacing back and forth….. Hannah ruined all his whole plan for years now for just not informing him early that the president general has found his hideout. But how did he easily tracked his hideout?

“Such dumb woman!” He said angrily as the phone he was holding scattered into pieces.

And now that his brother knows about him now, he has to stick to plan B!

Just that moment he was lost in thought, the ringing sound the of his office cell phone brought him back, he went ahead to pick up the call with the intention of shouting at his secretary for disrupting his thoughts. Who else would call him with the office cell phone if not his Secretary?

He picked it up but before he could say anything, the voice at the other end rang through, “I’m in a hot mess!” it was Hannah!….. and not his secretary, he could easily tell whose voice was it.

“Dumb woman! Sort it out yourself!” He yelled and then ended the call smashing the office cell phone angrily on the floor. Just then he started to tickle his nose when his eyes caught the files on his office desk and it calmed him down “Afterall he can still get his children the legal way!” He smiled derisively. The next court day would be in a month time.

Presently at the president general ward….

Owens was sipping some coffee and sitting in the sitting room when he heard the loud sound of the door being burst open.

Bam! Mark kicked the door forcefully, causing the door to crash!

He looked over and saw Mark working towards the stairs angrily, he seem completely outraged. It was unusual for him to display such wantonly cruel act, he had learnt the Martial skill of controlling his anger but here he was angry, completely angry!

“Mark!” Owens called out. Before now he has been filled with immense joy as he received the best news he could ever ask for! Of course he was still feeling the immense joy.

Mark halted by his footstep, still outraged, trying to calm down his nerves but it was not working out perfectly.

He turned and headed directly to meet his grandfather who was calling him and once he got closer, he noticed something very rare and unusual. Owens was always wearing a serious face but now he was smiling and looked every excited….. What was happening?

“What’s happening?” He asked curiously as he got closer…. his hitherto angry self somehow diminishing… One of the best news he could ever receive or see was his grandpa smiling, and now he was smiling but what could make him to start smiling and looking happy like this?

“Thanks son.. I’m finally going to be a great grand father!” Owen’s said excitedly as he brought out an envelope and threw it at Mark. He was excited because, firstly, the few three months he has to live out his life had been extended drastically into a year and – one young boy they said, produced a drug that could cure him.

“Open it” he said, his smile now getting sheepish.

Mark, out of curiosity quickly opened it and brought out the medical report card inside the envelope. A pregnancy test report, it read….. He quickly glanced through with a palpitating heart… “May it not be what I’m thinking!”

“Hannah was pregnant!” Mark stood rooted to the spot! “This can’t be real!” He heard himself murmur!

Was she really pregnant? Oh God! That night… But he didn’t touch her, did he?

He had woken up one night naked with Hannah naked as well on top on him….. But not sure if they both did something all through the night. – Remember Hannah spiked his drink –Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Mark raised his face and suddenly broke out with cold sweats..

“Thanks son! Your wife is pregnant!” Owens said more excitedly and I will probably with full certainty live to see my great grand children.

Mark just followed the flow and stammered out, “Good news!” And then hug Owen’s as a form of celebration, Before he left. Since it gives his grandfather so much joy, he has to keep it this way!

Angrily, he entered his bedroom to find Hannah sleeping on the bed. Looks innocent, indeed!

Just as Mark sat down on the couch beside the bed, Hannah started to wake up, it was all pretence from the start. She knows that Mark probably found out the truth about her and now she shifted her plans closer by faking she was pregnant. She felt faking it would get her closer to Mark and of course yes, it’d since it gets Owen’s happy.

“Honey ….” She said as she blinked her eyes opened.

“You’re back….” She then hauled into a sitting position

“I feel exhausted…” She added and then yawned… Meanwhile, Mark was staring at her coldly with anger radiating from his face and eyes. “This lady! Is so deceptive!”

Mark thew the envelope at her…. She just held it and smiled at Mark. “Aren’t you happy? You’re finally going to be a real father! And not a father to children that are not yours -” she was obviously referring to the Triplets.

“We’re going for a second test…. I know you’re not pregnant and even if you’re not for me because nothing happened that night between us!” Mark stated, he sounded serious and cold.

Hannah was now caught in a dilemma, did he really find out the informations about me?

“What’s it … You sounded cold! You should really diminish how cold you sound towards me, I’m your wife and the mother to your unborn baby! Such a rude jerk!” She said, and then mocked.

Mark was infuriated but can’t do anything drastic to her because it’ll completely ruin his grandpa’s happiness.

“You have a daughter for my step brother, Jake!”

“I can’t believe you’re my betrothed…. I don’t like coincidence like this!” Mark said and then sprang up from the couch feeling very pissed.

“Damn! He already found out Jake is his long lost step brother!” Hannah’s s face flushed with fear that he already found out everything about her, but then she found comfort in the fact he doesn’t know that she was not his betrothed…- merely fake –

“I didn’t have a daughter for him, but yes, I had a relationship with him and I can’t afford to tell -” she didn’t complete her explanation before she shook with sudden fear when Mark yelled, “You even knew he is my step brother!”

“You do?” Mark yelling intensified further.

“Damnit! If not for my grandfather!” Mark became restless with thought..

“Yy… ye…. ye.. yes… I knew!” Hannah confessed!

Mark then darted out of the room immediately he heard her response. He could be a very terrible person when he is angry, thus to avoid getting Hannah injured he had to just leave her alone….

“She even lies she doesn’t have a daughter for him! I’d confirm that!” Mark murmured as he left.

“Believe it or not, I’m pregnant for you and you have to treat me right…. When you were riding me al through the night, you didn’t know I’d get pregnant!” Hannah wanted to chastise Mark, but he already left!

Hannah exhaled deeply….. Luck was on her side and yet again, she escapes his wrath, but for how long?
