It was boldly written at the top.

He splashed the file at the lawyer’s face, pulled out his phone and placed a call. Surprisingly she picked.

“Ivy, what the hell is this? Why is your lawyer giving me divorce papers? Divorce papers? You think divorce papers will have you escaping from your sin of years?”

It was his first time shouting on Ivy. He was fed up and couldn't bottle up his anger anymore.

“Do you know I can crush you for this?” He snarled.

But then, a loud laughter erupted from the other end sending Kevin's eyes darting.

He couldnt understand what was funny.

“Mind you, I’m now the CAS, a millionaire….. And you want to sue me? You want to end up in prison?”

“Hmph!” He smirked at her naivety. She was obviously still a baby in baby money. She had no idea what true what entailed.

Only eight days were left until their sixth wedding anniversary, yet this was happening right in front of him.

He had already started planning surprises to make her happy, and was planning to reveal his actual identity to her!

“What did I miss? Tell me. Why do you want a divorce?” he asked, wanting to confirm to the final point this wasn't some kind of prank as he'd be taking action. He didn't want a situation he'd later come to realize it was all a joke.

There was a brief silence, heavy with tension, stretching the moment out and making Kevin even more uneasy.

“I don’t think you’re suitable to be my husband. I have to protect my image. A poor husband brings down my status as CAS. That should explain everything.”

Kevin slowly lowered his head, running his fingers through his hair in frustration and confusion.

“Ohhh!”

“So you’re telling me it’s not because you found someone better than me that you want this divorce?” he asked, still struggling to believe her explanation.

“Of course not! If I were to choose someone else, it wouldn’t be on your level. It would be someone like me, great, or even richer than me. You embarrass me.”

Kevin froze.

Ivy then got pissed, feeling like Kevin was wasting her time. In her head, she expected him to simply get angry, sign the papers, and walk away.

“Enough of these questions!” she barked. “I’m coming there myself so you can sign it. After this, I want nothing more to do with you.” She cut the call.

Fifteen minutes later, she drove to the estate. She stormed to Kevin who stood still, sending dagger stares. Cold shivers crossed her spine seeing Kevin so deadly but she forced out the bold move.

“What do you want from me? Why can’t you just accept that I don’t want you anymore and sign the papers? I don’t have time to waste here with you,” she said sharply.

The kids, hearing her voice, came rushing down. “Mommy! Mommy!! Welcome!!!” They squirled in delight and both came rushing towards her, not even sparing Kevin a glance. They must have known something.

He stamped his foot angrily, terrifying them. “This is the height of it all. So you turned these kids suddenly against me? You told them…..”

Ivy slid in. “You'd come in to substitute for their real dad till he comes back. Now he's back, they gat nothing to do with you.”

Then she urged Roman and Eva. “Go inside loves, your real dad is back in the country. Will be home soon.” They giggled, running back in.

It was hard for Kevin to believe that the kids he'd been cooking, dressing and sacrificing for these past years could forget about him so soon….all because Ivy said so!! He took his attention off them.

They were just kids anyway! Ivy was the problem.

He then grabbed Ivy by the collar. “Come on, tell what you told those kids. They couldn't just hate me so soon.”

“Now fighting for someone else's kids?”

His hands fell off. Kevin stepped back slowly. “You are right! I shouldn't be fighting for kids that aren't mine,” he spat and grabbed ivy again, this time with furious force. “But I raised these kids, cooked with them, clothed them!! Your audacity sure is very loud Ivy!” he spat.

Ivy looked up at him, her eyes terrified of his outburst.

He then threw her off his arm, causing her to stagger to the wall.

At that moment, everything became clear to him, she truly didn’t want him anymore. “I never thought in my life I'd meet a woman so shameless as you.” He hissed, breathing heavily, then picked up his pitch. “I wonder what will happen to your statue as Chief Auditor of the State should this be exposed.”

“By who?” Ivy lashed out at him in courage. “You want to kick me out?” Her voice trembled.

Kevin smirked, shaking his head in regret. The urge to revenge climbed up his chest but he wouldn't just want her sacked. He wanted a slow, painful revenge. Like the pain she had put him for years.

“I’m even giving you an advantage,” Ivy said, trying to maintain her aura. “Sign these papers now, and you’ll get ten million dollars to take care of yourself. Good enough to correct the hurt you might feel.” She was very certain it would be enough to keep him quiet as a poor truck driver.

She slid a credit card on his palm so confidently.

“Sign it, take the card, and stay out of my life and my children's life. I never want to see you again,” she repeated firmly. “That's for your years of serving us. I never want to hear our names on your lips. Ever again!”

Kevin shot her a disgusted look. He never thought a day when he'd feel disgusted by a woman would arrive.

He flung the card back at her. Her face twisted. Grabbing the file, he scribbled his signature and threw it at her face.

“Even if I was the poorest in the world, I wouldn't want the money of a despicable whore. And in my quest for a woman, I would want one with value.”

The flabbergasted Ivy raised her hand to slap him but he grabbed her, twisting her hand with great force to the back, leaving her shouting for help.

The guards who'd been watching the ongoings in shock wanted to step forward to attack him but he balled his fist.

They slowly backed off in fright!

“Come near and see death!!” his eyes was crimson eyes

Ivy felt like a prey at this sight. She had never expected this outcome! She thought he'd beg at her feet while she ended their marriage, but the opposite was playing out at her face.

With one last look of disdain at her, Kevin sneered, and stormed off without looking back.

    “I have always known you to be my twin, Freya. We might not be related by blood but we think alike and all. Do you know I said that to him earlier?” Camilla choked with emotion.“That’s because our hearts have always belonged to us you know. Camilla, I really hope your happiness lasts forever. Congratulations again. And yes, I think we need to start preparing. Please tell me what to do and I'll get it done.” Freya muttered in happiness.“Right I thought the same but Kevin seems like he doesn't want me bothering about that. Or I guess I need to talk to him about the preparations, you know.” Camilla replied as she thought it through.Kevin’s words rang in her ears again and somehow she started to convince herself that really he didn't need her worrying about the preparations. She planned to ask him later though.“No problems Camilla. Doesn't matter if it's midnight. If you need me for anything that's related to the wedding, please ring my phone.” Freya told her regardless. “Gotcha darl

    “What are you thinking?” Camilla laughed.“Ummm!” Freya cleared her throat. “Umm umm,” then they both laughed as they enjoyed the water.Not long after they got out, Camilla brought out the native cooking iron with the charcoal and lit it up. “It's been like ages since I used this. After my last relationship that was ruined by Marco, I decided to stop doing this. But it's because this was the last thing I did with him. He loves barbecue a whole lot.” Camilla muttered. “But now I feel like I can. Kevin is too much for him, I guess. And this husband of mine has healed me from a whole lot.” “That monster really did a lot. But it's fine. You have me and nothing will happen to either of us henceforth.” she replied to her and coughed to lighten the atmosphere. “I'll help you. Look Camilla, you better not give a sad face. I need you looking your best. You need to look your best, do you hear me? I want that smile. That's what gets me smiling hard too.” Camilla nodded and brought out her cut

    In the middle of eating, Camilla got up to take her phone then she texted Freya White.After eating, she cleaned up for the day and then made her way to the pool to let the morning sun touch her skin. She was still on that when she heard Freya’s presence. She turned and watched as her friend jumped towards her. Camilla got out of the pool and hugged Freya very tight. “You didn't plan to be somewhere today?” she asked her.She knew Freya well enough that she barely let her morning go that easily. “Well I did but it's nothing serious so I can definitely answer you. Actually, work has been so boring these days. Same routine over and over again. What about you?” she asked Camilla.“I'll be working from home today,” she replied to her. “After all, there's really nothing serious to attend to at the office, and by the way it's been very boring too. Thankfully I'm no longer single to deal with that alone. Honestly Freya, I really think you should say yes to someone. That way we will both get

    “Can we hold a wedding to honor our marriage?” Kevin suddenly uttered. Even he had no idea how and when it slipped. After he recovered, he continued. “Actually I want to give you a high-profile wedding Camilla. One that you deserve and it will be fully sponsored by me. If you give me a go-ahead, I'll make that happen for us.”Camilla sat there, stunned to her bones. Knowing his financial capacity, she never thought that could be possible for her in this marriage and in actual fact, she never had a problem with it. But hearing him bring it up like this, she felt that girlishness in her move. Her excitement was bubbling. “Really Kevin? You want us to get married? Like you want us to like actually have a wedding?” she asked.He nodded his head. “I want to give you all the experience you deserve Camilla.”Her palms were on her face this time as she stared at him in surprise. She got up and went closer to him. “Yes!" she muttered, holding his hand. “Yes, I'll accept it. I wish to wear a we

    They kissed hard until they were out of breath. Panting, Camilla hugged her husband. “Welcome honey!” “Thank you my love!” he was all smiles. Then he sniffed something in the air. “Is a feast going on? Seems like you have done a lot of wonders.” Camilla laughed. “Wouldn't that be wonderful though? Doing wonders for my husband! Come in please!” She helped him in and took his bag away from him. They got into the room and without another word, Camilla started helping him pull off his clothes. Kevin couldn't stop himself from staring into her eyes as she did her thing. “I’m impressed with your journey and I’m very happy because my grandson found a true soulmate!” His grandfather’s voice resounded in his ears again as he stared at her.His heart filled with joy. His grandfather definitely did not lie. In fact, his grandfather had never had a reason to tell a lie. He was definitely in a love marriage without ulterior motives or interests. This woman loved him genuinely. He then bent

    “I just wanted to be sure that my daughter is fine and everything is cool. You haven't called me even once to complain, child. Remember when you started working for the first time, though everyone knew better to behave well around you, you still called me for personal complaints. But ever since you married you haven't called to complain, not even about the little stress you might be facing in the marriage child.” he said to her.Camilla almost busted out laughing. “Father!” she cracked a bit. “Okay well, that's because he isn't bothering me you know. He's very peaceful and gives me all the comfort I need.” she muttered with smiles reaching her soul. “I can see that. I never expected that though. You know when you marry a man not as elite as you, most times it turns tragic. I know Kevin has shown me he's not like that, but I still have to check on you from time to time. You have to promise me that if it ever gets tough you will tell your father.” he told her, his eyes very affectionat
