His properties
I could see the disappointed look on her face the moment I uttered such words. “I know I may not look like your standard right now sir but just give me a chance then I promise to take good care of you and look after you. I’m very much sure you will enjoy me in bed”.
I almost puked out the moment she uttered such dirty words which sounded so bad in my ears.
“Behave yourself well if you don’t want me to report you to the director of this hospital. Men should be the one shooting their shots on you and not you going after them. Understand that”. I scolded her then walked away realizing that she will waste my time if I choose to stay all day while talking to her. I walked inside the ward where grandpa was taken to and found him on the bed with one of his male servants who was looking after him.
“Stefan is my grandpa. Your Grandson is here”. The middle aged man shrugged at him on realizing that he was looking at the other side and his gaze wasn’t on us so he said that in order to earn his attention since he will be so surprised to see me here..”Stefan!!”
He called with a delight gaze the moment he turned to look at me. “Here I am Kendrick.. What is it? What do you want from me? Why have you requested for me to come here instead of your daughter who you’re willing to do anything for?”
I could see the Regret look on his face the moment he tried to stand up and sit straight so he could narrow his gaze at me and be talking to me but he wasn’t too strong for that as the man taking care of him asked him to lay down.
“I know I have done you wrong lots of times but please find a place in your heart to forgive me. I promise to be a better grandpa from now on. What do you want me to do for you? I’m sure it’s never too late now. Just let me know! Mention them and let me know of any way I can help you now before it’s too late”.
I couldn’t help but laugh Inside of me as I continued to glare at grandpa who was just talking up and down in my ears. What’s him trying to do? Is he trying to make deals with me just like he did the last time thereby making my life miserable before I was able to get out of it? I smiled widely as I shake my head on knowing that This was another of his plans and promise just to manipulate my life just like he had always been doing it.
“Three years ago and now isn’t the same thing Kendrick. I don’t know if you had mistaken me to be that teenage Stefan of yesterday who you promised the earth and heaven if only he could do as you wish Kendrick but sadly, at the end you couldn’t fulfilled your wishes on him thereby making his Life miserable for that past one year and yet, you’re back at it again but sadly, he won’t listen to your words anymore”. I explained to him in parables and I was glad he understood what I meant the moment he started crying. he should whipped more because he deserves it.
I do wonder why some people think that they could easily fool someone with their cry.
“You just gotta try and understand grandpa Stefan. Please calm your voice down when talking to him because he won’t be able to take your harsh, strict words on him. Grandpa had a stroke two days ago and that was after his encounter with one man who insulted him and talked rudely at him so please try talking to him nicely”.
Grandpa’s servant shrugged at me as my memories of that event reflected back to me.
Yeah I do remember the time I had an encounter with him, the particular time I disguised myself as Stephen. So my conversation with him did actually affect him?
I didn’t know that my words were so harsh on him that it actually resulted in him having a stroke.
“I don’t think Kendrick’s conversation with whoever he was talking about was the cause of his sudden sickness. He’s currently battling with his evilness and I will be so happy to watch him die here without recovering”.
I shrugged at him and at that moment, Jenny walked in. It seems like she does hear my conversation because her countenance shows that. And also at that particular time, the doctor Walked in.
“Thank God you’re finally here Stefan. Your grandfather here is battling with a Asthma disease; A condition in which a person’s airways become inflamed, narrow and swell and produce extra mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe.
Asthma can be minor or it can interfere with daily activities. In some cases, it may lead to a life-threatening attack and this usually occurs when he has an argument with someone or he’s thinking of something which could raise his blood pressure and that could lead to a heart stroke”.
The doctor explained as I took a deep breath. Asthma patients don’t last longer and at this moment I won’t be convinced if grandpa ends up dying in this hospital which I know he deserves.
“Father, what is it? You look pressured and worried. Please don’t tell me this is happening because of Stefan. What did he say to you the moment he came here?”
Jenny shrugged at grandpa who was looking at me as I took a deep breath and then my eyes met with Jenny who was looking at me with so much hatred in her eyes.
“What did you say to grandpa? Why would you utter such words to him at this moment? Do you really wish he will die just like your parents? Grandpa is the only one I have Stefan. So tell me the reason why you wish him death? Jenny bellowed at me as I continued to look at her without saying anything. “can’t you speak right now? What the fuck will you wish grandpa deaths? Do you want me to be homeless like you?”
I held her hand the moment I found out she was making an attempt to slap me and in anger, I pushed her away from me.
“What were you planning to do Jenny, you want to raise your hands at me? Have you forgotten the fact that I am a senior to you? I guess grandpa never teaches you manners so I’m not surprised at all. I bet this is also how you treat your poor innocent husband who had regretted marrying you”. I could see the furious look in her eyes the moment I uttered such Words which deeply pained her to her bone and will make her shed tears wherever she went.
“Enough Jenny, Stefan; please you guys are in the hospital. I do know displaying such actions in front of grandpa will make his Blood pressure rise more. Please let’s save that for another day”. Grandpa’s servant shrugged at me as I leaned towards grandpa.
“Although this will be hard for you to do, I just want you to find a place in your heart and forgive me. I know you probably thought I’m always Abandoning you but I don’t. Do let me know how I can make everything Right before anything happens to me”.
Grandpa uttered as I nodded my head sadly. Well, let me just accept his offer and whatever he’s planning to give me. Let it not be like I’m the only grandchildren he didn’t do anything for before his death, because judging by the way he was talking, it seems like he will give up anytime soon, which is the reason why I need to be a part of his inheritance.
“What made you change your mindset, grandpa? Because all my life I think Jenny has always been the one controlling you”.
I uttered and stared at the boiling dragon Jenny who just wanted to swallow me up. “Well, someone made a parable to me some days ago which I am yet to recover from and that’s when I realized how unfair I have been to you ever since I found you to be my grandson and from today go, I promise to make sure you’re Okay and you won’t lack anything before I die”.
I turned to look at Jenny as father uttered such words without even looking at her and you can’t imagine the sad look in her eyes. All those while, she was just waiting for grandpa to stare at her so she could blink his eyes at Him but unfortunately grandpa was wise this time around as he chose to look away.
“I’m happy you were able to make a good decision this time around in front of her without minding what she will say. Not to make it look like I’m proud or something because it will be bad for me to reject your offer grandpa but I will accept whatever properties you’re going to give me, just to prove my enemies wrong. Then I turned to look at JENNY
“Since he’s the only person you have aside from your husband, I hope he does recover very fast so he could continue to look after you as the father he had always been to you. Take care of yourself father”.
I turned to look at Jenny and held her hand then continued with my speech. “Take good care of him Jenny. I’m placing him in your hands. Don’t let anything happen to him”. I shrugged at her with a beam, about to walk away when she held my hand and pulled me back. “Follow me”. She whispered. I waved at grandpa who told me not to fight with her as I followed her outside the hospital, where my car was.
“I know what you’re up to Stefan but it won’t work. Not under my watch Okay”. She roared at me furiously as I sighed deeply. What the fuck is she talking about? “Just by looking at your appearance and what you’re putting on, I know you went to borrow it so that you can look nice in front of everyone, didn’t you? But Trust me, you won’t get grandpa properties Because you weren’t there when he worked the money. You were around in one corner when father was suffering to meet end meal and now that he finally got it, you want Him to give you some of those properties Because you think you’re his grandson? Jenny rasped in at me with anger as I Scoffed at her.
I don’t just know why she’s so greedy just to have father’s properties. Father does have other children and I think he had opened businesses for them since they were all a Rich businessmen like him except her who just wanted to inherit his property by herself. I would have backed down from this but not on this act she’s putting on. She’s just acting as if she’s the only grandchildren grandpa has and I’m willing to fight with her on this one even though I don’t need it.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Are you done with your conversation? Can you get out of my front now? I bellowed at her on realizing that she was standing in front. But the stubborn Jenny didn’t want to leave. In anger, I pushed her away and she ended up falling on the ground with a loud thug which I knew at the end she will have some injuries on her leg which had hit the ground.
“Please try to stay in your lane next time Jenny. Don’t provoke the lion in me”.
And since I have stepped on her toe, I was eagerly waiting for her husband who she will call to fight me but I guess I will feel sorry for the man if he ever made an attempt to challenge me in a fight. “How dare you Stefan? Did you just fall Me? Her voice echoes through my ears as I move closer to my car and I have to look at my bodyguard to take care of her if she ever made an attempt of hitting me through the back which he understands and went to meet her immediately.
“Please go away ma’am. I think this is enough”. I heard my bodyguard uttering to her as I entered the car while he came to enter and we drove off, leaving her dumbfounded. I’m sure she was surprised to see that I have a car. I just hope I’m never too late for the party of Black Harper Because I need to prove Richard wrong
