Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets

Chapter 57

Shit!! This woman is cheating on me, she has someone else she’s seeing and from the look of things, she’s in love with whoever she was with on the phone. There was this smile on her face the moment she ended the call.

Brandon didn’t know why but his heart broke at the thought of it. He didn’t know why he felt sad and disappointed.

What was he expecting? Whatever they have between them is a contract marriage, it’s better he keeps things formal with her, it’s a contract marriage and it’s gonna end the moment he finds his mom. He quickly replaced the expression on his face with a cold look.

“Hey!” Hannah muttered as she dropped her phone beside her.

“Hey, how are you feeling?” Brandon asked

“I’m okay, I’m feeling better,” Hannah said and Brandon nodded in response. Hannah noticed the cold look on his face, she wondered what was wrong with him. She quickly shook off the thought, it was none of her concern anyways.

Just then Liam’s phone vibrated and Liam quickly checked his phone.

“Sir, you would want to see this” Liam said as he picked up the remote and switched on the Tv in the hospital ward.

It was a video of Brandon punching Donald on his nose with the headline, *Billionaire CEO, Brandon Colby got into a fight with Donald, the CEO of Donald Corp and co*

Brandon scoffed and shook his head.

“When did this happen?” Hannah asked surprised as Brandon took the remote from Liam Then changed the station and to his surprise it was the news of Hannah on the television with the headline, *Wife of CEO, Brandon Colby has been murdered*

“What????” Hannah screamed in horror.

“Me? Dead? And how the hell did all this get to the press?” Hannah asked staring at both Liam and Brandon.

“Don’t give me that look, Atlanta is a big city and news flies around, so what do you expect?” Brandon said as he suddenly heard his phone ring.

“It’s a call from the company,” Brandon said as he turned to Liam.

“It’s fine, you should stay with her, I’ll go take care of it,” Liam said and with that, he walked out of the hospital ward. Hannah sighed softly.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“How could they say I’m dead? So, they wanted me dead! God! I’m fucking alive” Hannah said with a frown on her face.

“You shouldn’t be bothered about that, you should be bothered about your health,” Brandon said as he brought out his phone and started operating it with a cold look on his face.

“Everyone will think I’m dead, including the people in the company,” She said and Brandon sighed.

“I’ll ask Liam to make a tweet, so everyone can know you are still alive,” Brandon said and then put back his phone in his pocket.

“I called one of the maids at home, she would be coming to take care of you, I have got important things to handle, ” he said as he checked the time on his wristwatch.

“So, other things are more important than me, right? For fuck sake, I was almost killed, Brandon. Ain’t you supposed to be with me to protect me” Hannah asked

“That’s the work of a bodyguard. I hired one already” Brandon said and Hannah scoffed

“I do not need another bodyguard,” she said and Brandon turned to her.

“Did you have one that I do not know about?” He asked with no expression on his face. Hannah wondered what was wrong with him.

“No, no, of course not,” Hannah said

“I had to leave Tezah’s CEO when they called me saying you were shot. I was close to convincing him to partner with us. And now I have to start over again, he isn’t even willing to meet, again.

He said I wasted his time” He said and Hannah sighed softly.

“Didn’t he know your wife was shot and you had to leave?” Hannah asked

” Tezah’s CEO doesn’t have any emotion. He doesn’t sympathize with anyone” Brandon said

“Every human has an emotion, what made you think he doesn’t have one?” Hannah asked

“He lost his entire family in a fire. Someone had set the fire, although they haven’t found out who had done it, to date” Brandon said and just then he heard his phone vibrate.

He brought his phone out from his pocket and checked it, then put the phone back in his pocket. It was Rhoda texting him.

Hannah wondered who was sending him messages as his phone kept on vibrating, she knew that one person would be the one doing that and it was Rhoda.

The thought of that made her angry. Memories of how Rhoda had hugged Brandon came running into her head and anger flashed in her eyes.

She quickly pushed away the anger from her mind, she didn’t have any right to be angry. Brandon could be with whoever he wanted to be with,

Besides, their marriage is a contract marriage and is going to end the moment he finds his mom.

“When will I be discharged?” Hannah asked

“Only the doctor can say when she said the wound needs to be treated properly so it won’t get infected,” Brandon said and Hannah nodded in response.

Just then a lady walked in, Hannah recognized her immediately, it was one of the maids from home.

“Hi ma’am, hi sir,” the maid said as she bowed. Hannah smiled at the maid while Brandon stared at her with no expression on his face.

“I have to go now, if you need anything you can call me or call my Liam. He would assist you with anything you want” Brandon said and Hannah’s memories flashed back to the day she and Brandon had met in a restaurant.

Those were his exact words to her, to call his assistant, Liam if she needed anything. He sounded so cold that day and now he was sounding more than cold. There was a bit of anger in his eyes and at the same time a look of disappointment on his face.

Hannah wondered what was wrong with him.

“My kids, they would be worried about me,” Hannah said

“I’ll make sure they are taken care of while you receive treatment,” Brandon said and with that, he walked out of the hospital ward.
