Chapter 101
You should go home and rest Lisa. You seriously need to rest. Stressing isn’t good for you or your pregnancy. It might lead to miscarriage. A lot has happened today so we wouldn’t want anything to happen to you. Please go home and rest ” Julia said to Lisa. Lisa smiled and nodded at her.
“Thank you,” Lisa said as she moved toward her and hugged her.
“Joy is going to be fine ” Lisa whispered and pulled away from the hug. Julia nodded and Lisa smiled before walking away.
She walked outside the hospital and then she heard her phone ring. It was a call from Mrs. Bella. Just as she was about to answer the phone call, the phone went off. “Oh shit. My battery has died” Lisa said almost in a whisper.
“You should charge the phone in the car” she heard Williams’s voice. She turned to Williams who was now standing beside her.
“I’m not sure there’s a charger inside the car,” Lisa said
“I think there is. I bought one yesterday ” Williams said and Lisa muttered an oh.
“How’s Dina?” Williams asked
“She’s okay. At least she’s getting better” Lisa responded
“I just pray she gets out of the coma in time so by the time her daughter wakes up she would be happy to see her mommy” Williams mumbled
“Yeah. They’ve been through a lot these few days and they deserve to be happy. They’re all in this because of me” Lisa said sadly
“It’s not your fault. You shouldn’t blame yourself” William said and Lisa sighed softly.
Just then Daniel walked toward them.
“Have you seen Julia and Derek?” He asked
“Yeah. Let’s go home” Lisa said tiredly.
“Sure. Williams please stay with Clara for tonight and make sure she’s okay. If you need anything just call me alright ” Daniel said
“Yes sir”, Williams responded.
“Let’s go,” Daniel said to Lisa as they both walked inside the car. Daniel ignited the engine and zoomed off.
The car screeched to a halt in front of Daniel’s mansion. Lisa opened the car door and walked out of the car.
“Lisa” Daniel called as she was about to walk inside the house. She turned to him.
“I had almost forgotten. Sorry, I’m telling you this now. I hired a maid yesterday. Ma’am Lois told me what you guys discussed so I had her bring someone that can work like her. I hope you’re okay with that?” Daniel asked
“Oh yes!! That’s okay by me” Lisa smiled softly and Daniel heaved a sigh of relief.
They both walked inside the house and found out it was so quiet and clean.
“Seems like the maid is doing her job very well” Daniel chuckled and Lisa scoffed
“Welcome ma, welcome sir” a young girl who was about Lisa’s age greeted them as she walked towards them.
“Is she the maid?” Lisa asked in a whisper
“Yeah” Daniel responded
“She looks so young, ” Lisa said
“She’s 25” Daniel whispered and Lisa muttered an oh. She looks so young for her age, Lisa thought.
“Welcome ma, welcome sir,” the maid said as she bowed her head. Lisa smiled at her.
“Welcome,” Lisa smiled at her.
“I’ll go take my bath and come downstairs for dinner, ” Lisa said tiredly and Daniel nodded in response.
Lisa walked past the maid, climbing upstairs to her room.
Immediately she was out of sight, the new maid turned to Daniel.
“Sir, your wife is beautiful, ” the maid said and Daniel laughed
“Serve dinner before she comes back,” Daniel said
“Yes sir ” the maid responded
“What about ma’am Lois?” Daniel asked
“I gave her the tablets you bought for her. She’s asleep already” the maid said and Daniel nodded before going upstairs to his room.
Immediately after Lisa got to her room, she collapsed tiredly on her bed. She was feeling so tired. All her hinges and joints were hurting so bad. She needed a lot of rest. She closed her eyes and suddenly she drifted to sleep.
Daniel, who had taken his bath and gone downstairs for dinner, didn’t meet Lisa there. He sat at the dining table waiting for her but she didn’t come. He stood up from the dining and went upstairs to her room to check on her, only to see her sleeping.
He wasn’t surprised though. He knew she was tired already. She needed to rest anyway. He helped her remove her shoes from her leg. Helped her lay properly on the bed, kissed her on her forehead head before covering her with the duvet.
He sighed softly as he stared into her beautiful face. She looked so peaceful while sleeping. He just wishes her life would be so peaceful and nobody would hate her for being her. He switched off the lights in her room before walking out of the room locking the door behind him.
He went back downstairs to the dining room. He took a plate of food and called the maid to clear the rest that he was going to eat in his room. The maid nodded obediently and did as he said.
*******Next Day********
It was morning and a brand new day. Lisa had woken up feeling so hungry. She rushed inside the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and went downstairs for breakfast.
When she got to the kitchen she met the maid. She was done cooking and was about to serve breakfast.
“Good morning ma’am” the maid greeted
“Good morning ” Lisa responded and the maid smiled.
“What’s for breakfast?” Lisa asked
“Spaghetti and pasta,” the maid said happily and Lisa smiled.
The maid looked so happy doing her job. She felt so amazed.
“Can I have a plate of it here? No need to serve in the dining” Lisa said
“Yes ma’am, ” the maid said and gave her the plate of food without wasting any more time. Lisa ate the food in a rush. The maid stared at her in awe. She wasn’t surprised though, she’s heard that women who are pregnant eat a lot and she has just witnessed one.
