We’ll both die
As Mabel sat on the bed crying and remembering the past, Ava’s first child came into the room and walked slowly to her. Her eyes like hazel and her eyelids so long and beautiful.
“Hey, mama.. why are your eyes wet? Are you okay?” The child sat on the bed and brought her hands closer to Mabel’s face while looking deep into her eyes.
“No, go to your room child. I need to be alone no, go play with your siblings,” she hushed the child who moved backwards a bit and looked down.
“But where is my mama? You are my new mommy, I need to see my old mommy, I love her” the child said slowly moving her legs while she spoke.
“Oh really, you love her?” Mabel’s tone burned with anger. “Yes I do, and I want to see her,” the child replied folding her palms and rubbing on it.
“Get out! Get lost! I don’t wanna see you know! Just leave!” Mabel yelled at the child who could barely understand the reason for her yell. Tears rolled down the child’s eyes as she proceeded to leave the room.
At least the child still remembered she had a mother, and that her mother was not Mabel.
As young as she was, she thought to herself, “Why did Mama yell at me that way? Did I do anything wrong?”
Moving down the stairs, she walked downstairs to meet Addams who sat on the couch, fiddling with his phone.
Looking up from his phone and seeing tears in her eyes, looking back at his phone, stretched his hands out and asked, “What’s wrong with you Shirley, are you okay?”
Shirley got closer to her father with her face clouded with tears and her nose, wiped it off, and went to sit next to her father, “Where is my old mom? I miss her, I’ve been asking for a while now,” she asked.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Raising his eyebrow, Addams exhaled and looked up, muttering incoherable, “They grow too fast,”
Looking back at her, he patted her back and replied, “She went on a travel, I don’t know when she’ll return and you may never see her again too.”
He covered up, indirectly telling the little one that her mother was dead but what did she know and what did he know too?
“I want to go to travel with her too. I don’t like this new mother in the room. She yelled so badly at me,” she sobbed and Addams dragged her to himself and rubbed her shoulders softly.
“You can’t go there baby girl, that place isn’t safe. Be rest assured that your new mommy loves you okay? She’s just not feeling too good.”
“Okay, can I at least see her picture?” she continued and he rolled his eyes slightly. “She took along every of pictures with her, I’m sorry Shirley.”
Now come here, he patted her forehead and then she fell asleep in his arms.
Focusing on his phone, he went back to search for Ava’s number. Tapping on her number, he touched the green dial and her phone began to ring. With his hands scratching his head slightly, he watched the phone, waiting for her response.
On the other end, Ava Smith saw the phone ring and I switched it to Do Not Disturb. “Calling me for what? Isn’t Mabel not there with him? Oh poor Mabel,” she mocked, her voice barely audible.
It rang back into her skull as she began to rethink about how she couldn’t just see everything that was happening right below her nostrils then. “So this is why Addams locked me up in another room? Away from my children and away from him while I was heavily pregnant? It all makes sense now. I was blind not to see,” she sniffled and shut her eyes, wiping off a drop of crystal tear that dropped out of her eyes.
Thinking deeper, she added, “Why would Mabel even do this to me in the first place? An enemy can’t even do this to me and never in my sane mind will I ever do what she did to me! But why did he have to kill our parents? Kill me too! Sometimes, enemies are more better than friends,” Ava wiped her eyes with the rollercoaster of emotions running through her as she lay on the hospital bed.
Meanwhile, Mabel on the other hand angrily stood up from the bed and walked straight to Addams who sat in the living room, surprisingly grabbing his phone from his hands and flipping it open.
Unbothered by her actions, Addams placed his hands on his chin, looking deep into her eyes but Mabel was too busy with carrying out her new investigatory duties on his phone.
“You don’t love me anymore! You are sick in the head Addams! Has anyone ever told you that? So you called her? Just right after you said you have nothing to do with her? You don’t even care anymore! I was just a fool,” Mabel glowered and smashed his phone on the floor in anger at the word, “Give the phone to me,” from Addams
Angrily Addams stood up and opened his mouth to speak but shut it back, he shook his head at her and took two steps forward but Mabel rushed towards him, grabbing him by his wrist and pulling him by his collar to her face.
“Talk to me, Addams! Am I not beautiful enough? What the hell is wrong with you?” She spun around Addams face who watched her with his hands folded.
“I’m talking to you Addams,” she yelled, furiously landing a slap on Addams.
Addams blood boiled and he grabbed her by her wrist, dragging her with anger, his hands firm around her wrist while Mabel yelled, “Yes, you’ll have to kill me today! You can’t do this to me and I let you. We’ll both die, instead of you to love another woman..”
Shirley appeared from a corner, her eyes red as if she had been crying and she watched Addams drag towards her direction. Seeing that Shirley was tugged by the wall watching them Addams commanded, “Go to your room Shirley! Momma and I are having fun! Go now!” he glared at her when she was hesitant to move.
With a shudder, Shirley moved away to her room while Addams dragged Mabel behind. On getting to his room, he opened the door, still with his tight grip on her wrist, he got in with her and locked the door.
He moved in the direction of the bed and wanted to drop her on the bed but changed his mind. He grabbed her again. Mabel’s voice seized as she could not talk again. Her heart raced with excitement and fear when he took her to the bed.
He moved to the wall, took her two palms in his, placed them high above her head, and swirled his hand hard on her face. Mabel’s face widened in surprise as she looked down on the white tiled floor and saw blood that escaped her mouth.
“You slapped me? You are not a man you coward! men don’t beat women, real men don’t!” she screamed and as she ended her statement, her cheek suffered another blow, “Oh please shut up! You disrespectful bitch! What the hell is wrong with you? Is it because I love you or care about you? You have to guts to speak to me anyhow? Is that it?” his voice hoarse as he spoke.
Surprisingly he yelped, Mabel used her knee to hit his groin hard. In anger he slapped her again, “I know just exactly what you want! It’s because I haven’t given it to you that’s why you are giving me a whole lot of headache and this kick you just gave is a clue,” he wiped his lower lip and pushed her hair to the back of her neck.
“I know just how you love to be beaten. On the bed, am I right?” he whispered, inching closer to her face and Mabel averted her look.
“Go to hell!” She broke down in tears and began sobbing. Today marked the first day in history that Addams ever laid his hands on her since she took over his heart.
With a soft chuckle, he pulled her and flung her on the bed, “Remember how you used to be so happy to lay on this bed, I’m so sorry I made you cry right now but you’ll cry more right now. You won’t just spill blood from your mouth but cum,” he spoke dirtyly as he towered towards her and laid over her.
Tears rolled down her eyes as he brought his face closer to her and kissed her. “You love me Mabel and I love you more than you think I love you or you love me,” he mumbled and took her lips with his again.
Rolling her eyes and pushing his mouth away from hers, she said in a sexy voice, “You love me, then delete Ava’s contact and prepare to make her die. That’s the only way I’ll know that you truly love me.”

{AVA’S POV}
At the back of the car back to the president’s house, I noticed the driver looking at me from the window. “Why are you looking at the lady young man? Focus on your driving if you don’t want to lose your job,” One of the men who was sent to pick me up from the hospital commanded.
The driver shook his head in embarrassment and focused on driving. The man who sat next to me broke the silence in the car, “You are too beautiful ma,” he complimented and I looked at him and smiled without a word.
I had already noticed that he was looking at me throughout the journey.
In an hour, we arrived at the house and got into the house. On getting in, came forward to me, “Hello ma’am I am the one to take care of you from now on. The president placed you in my charge.”
Looking at the fat maid, I smiled at her, “Oh thank you, dear, ” and she took my bag away to my room. The house was so quiet that I walked upstairs to my room I felt like some living creatures crept around my belly.
On getting to my room, the maid opened the door and got in, “The president said he thought you’d be bored so that’s why he hired me and here I am just to make you smile.”
“Did he ask you to tell me that or you are just saying it to me,” I bluffed and sat on the bed. I was taken to a new room, not the one with Jayden.
So this thing was planned all the way, Jayden just wanted me to lay on the same bed with him.
Walking to sit beside me on the bed, “That’s what he told me, he didn’t say I should pass the message on to you but I just did because I think that’s what is best. You understand right?” she spoke with a smile on her face.
“I think I do. That’s okay, but can I have my time alone right now? I’ll call you when I need you, “I told her and she winked at me and bowed slightly, “Yes thank you. Though you just stripped me off staring at your beautiful face. Wait… you look familiar to me. You look like someone I have seen on TV. Are you a model of some sort?”
Her reaction was so funny and wild that my cheeks turned pink as she spoke, “Yes I am the model you see on television,” I replied and lay down on the bed.
“Oh my oh my, this is really a privilege, I had always wanted to you at least once in a lifetime. Who would have thought? I’ll be with you every day, please…” she begged, acting so dramatic and dropping her age behind.
“You can but not every day,” I replied and replied asked, “What’s your full name?”
