Chapter 181
She wanted everything to herself and when she thought Lisa was gone she was happy because she believed Mrs. Rebecca was going to give her all the love she used to share between her and Lisa and now Lisa had come into the picture again.
It made her quite angry but she wasn’t that angry though because she will do anything in her power to make sure Mrs. Rebecca doesn’t remember her precious daughter, Lisa.

Lisa stared at the papers that were in her hands with shock on her face. She raised her head and stared at Alfred for some seconds before starting back at the papers.
“It’s not possible. Daniel cannot be my sibling and talk more like my twin. I never had a sibling when I was growing up. It was just me, my mom, and my dad, and then Daisy, my late neighbor’s daughter ” Lisa said and Alfred sighed
“The test results cannot lie, Lisa. What if you had a sibling you never knew of? What if you guys were separated from birth? Anything is possible ” Alfred said and Lisa scoffed as she stared at the papers in her hands.
“No!! This is a pure lie. If I had a sibling my mom would have told me long ago. These results are rubbish and lies” Lisa said as she dropped the papers on the couch and then stood up.
“What if your mom didn’t know she had twins? Think of this, why is your mom so close to Daniel over the short period they met? I did some investigation on Lisa.
Your mom had just met Daniel and she felt she was somewhat connected to him. Only your mom might know the truth, Lisa. That’s why we need to do anything in our power to make her recall her memories. She might know something” Alfred said and Lisa turned to him with a confused look on her face.
She had remembered Daisy telling her that when things came to mom and Daniel, it was different like they had some sort of special connection. What if we are siblings? Lisa thought
Is that the reason she never developed any feelings for him? Maybe she felt that same connection too but she wasn’t so sure of it.
If Daniel is my twin, then what about Mrs. Bella? Does that mean she’s not Daniel’s mother? , Lisa thought as a lot of questions were going through her mind. She needed answers.
“Does Daniel know about the test result yet?” Lisa asked
“No” Alfred responded
“Why don’t we tell him?” Lisa asked
“No!! Not yet! You know Daniel loves you and he will not accept the fact that you are his twin. It’s gonna cause lots of damage to him. He’s still recovering” Alfred said and Lisa nodded in Affirmation.
“What about Mrs. Bella?” Lisa asked
“She doesn’t know yet,” Alfred said and Lisa nodded before sitting down close to Alfred. She was already weak. A lot of secrets come out of its hiding.
She had just found out her mother was still alive and had lost her memories and now the man who loved her as if his life depended on her was his twin brother.
She couldn’t believe it and worst of all she and Daniel had kissed so many times in the past year. And he had almost taken advantage of her. She just didn’t want to believe they are siblings after everything, she thought.
Alfred sighed softly as he noticed she was in deep thought. He put his hands on his shoulder and gave it a light squeeze.
“Everything is going to be fine. I’ll go prepare Dinner for the kids, you should rest ” Alfred said as he kissed her lightly on her forehead before walking out of the room.
He had gone downstairs to the kitchen to prepare dinner, After he was done he went to the kid’s room to call them down for dinner. After they were done eating, he helped them take their bath before putting them to sleep.
After that, he went to Lisa’s room and found out she was asleep. He switched off the lights and walked out of the room. He went downstairs to the living room and sat for some minutes before deciding to leave for the motel he was staying at.
He needed to attend to some matters. He walked out of the house and entered his car. Just as he was about to start his car he heard his cell phone ring. It was a call from Andrew. He sighed softly before answering the phone call.
“Alfred, when are you coming home? Are you alright? You’ve been gone for too long, is it because of Lisa?” he asked
“No! Lisa had refused to talk to me nor let me get access to my kids. But I’ll be home soon, and Mr. Luke is currently working on a project that’s why I’m not home yet” Alfred lied. He didn’t want Andrew to know anything about what was happening. He wouldn’t let him know he had found out about what he did.
He was going to act like everything is fine and when he plans on returning home, he wouldn’t even let him because he’s gonna come like a thief in the night and he would be shocked to see him.
Then he would make him feel the pain he felt, the pain of betrayal, he would make him feel times two of it, till he begs for death.
“Alright. I’m just worried about you. Please take care of yourself, Alright” Andrew said and Alfred hummed before ending the call.
Still acting so innocent like nothing happened. He knows how to play nice and pretend.
I would be back for you Andrew when everything is back to normal again but for now, I need to focus on Lisa and help her because right now she’s going through a hard time and needs a shoulder to lay on and someone to comfort her.
He wasn’t going to leave her side, not now of all times, He thought as he ignited the engine and zoomed off.
