Chapter 20
Maura Pov(Lily’s Mom)
I paced to and fro in the house expecting his arrival.
I took a glance at the clock and it’s almost 11pm, what’s keeping him this long?
I bit my lips tentatively and the long awaited came, Davis, u rush to the curtain and drag it to a side.
The gateman open the gate and fleet of cars drive into the compound.
The guards quickly rush to his own car and they opened the door for him.
He came out slowly and a young lady also step out.
Who could this be?
He snake his hand around the lady waist and I gasp.
Is he taking another wife?
I shook my head in dismay and finally, he entered the house.
I walk up to him folding my hands under my beast and he scoffed looking at me.
“You came late today again?”
“And will I take that as a welcome?”He snapped and the lady beside her chuckled.
“I… I…”
“Well, no need of stuttering, I wanna make a little introduction here tonight, here’s my new baby and she will be living here with us as from now, She will be the one to sleep in my room not you anymore, you’re archaic already, she will be the one to make my tea while the maids will prepare my breakfast under her supervision, I don’t want to stress her because she’s pregnant already”
The last statement rang in my head repeatedly.
“Pregnant?”I asked in shock and he nodded.
“Since , you can’t produce a baby for me, did you expect me to stick with you for ever?”
“Davis this is not right”I said with beady eyed and he scoffed.
“Baby, my legs are paining me, can we go to your room please?”The thing beside him asked pouting , she rub her belly eyeing me dangerously.
“Oh… I’m so sorry, let’s go please”He cooed and wrap his hand around her waist more tighter and led her upstairs.
I staggered back in shock, disappointment and guilt.
Is this not the man I abandoned my two grown up children for just to be with him?
Is this not the man who told me not to take care of Lily and Jason again that he’s ready to spend the rest of his life with him?
Is this not the man who made me turn deaf ears to Lily pleas that they aren’t important to me anymore?
Is this not the same man who brought a lady home making me useless?
Is this not the same ma telling me not to touch his tea and meal?
“God, I’m ruined!”I cried out in tears sprawling helplessly on the floor.
“What am I going to do?”
Sooner or later, he will throw my belongings out of this house.
I can’t go back to Lily again, I hurt her already, I can’t go back to Jason anymore, I turned him down when he was sick, I can’t go back to Alejandro anymore, I chased him out of my company when he came to beg me to come back to his house.
Then what am I going to do?
Oh God!
Please help me.
Lily Pov
I added soap into the water and turn it to a lather before dipping the sponge in it, I began to wash the car quickly and Daniel came out of the house, carring a small puppy in his arms.
His eyes fell on me and saunter towards me.
“Good morning sir”I greeted and he smiled.
“Morning Lily, how was your night?”
“It was fine sir ad yours?”
“Boring”He roll his eyes and I chuckled.
“Why are you the one taking care of the cars, where are the male workers”
“I’m the one taking care of Lucian cars sir”
“Why”He asked in surprise.
“I don’t know sir”
“Why does he have to do that when there are lots of male workers here?”He scoffed and I bent my head.
“Okay, will talk to him when he’s back, right…”
Becky walk to us disrupting our discussions, her face held a bitter expression.
“Good morning sir”She greet Daniel rather grudgingly and Daniel only nodded.
“Master said I should take you to the mall to pick a dress”She said turning to look at me and I furrow my brows in confusion.
“For what?”I asked in surprise.
“You can ask they goddamn question from him when he’s back, you shouldn’t ask me that, wi you get into my car now or you will have to walk to the mall with your wretched legs?”She snapped angrily and Daniel scoff.
“Hey, did you have to be rude, you said it was Lucian who ordered you to take her to take her to the mall, you aren’t the one to pay for the bills then why are you so harsh on her?”Daniel said almost pissed off.
“I’m sorry sir”
“Keep your apologies, don’t worry, I’ll take her to the mall myself, you can go”
“Okay sir”She replied and walk out of us not without giving me a death glare.
Damn!
What’s wrong with this lady?

Daniel Pov
I was so sad when I learnt from one of the guards that Lily is Lucian new sex slave.
How could he turn a beautiful lady like Lily to a slave, Why must he have to be a bitter about his past?
What’s wrong with Lucian?, Despite all the promises he made to me that he will change from dwelling on his past?
Damn!
“Go get dress Lily, I’ll take you there”
“Okay thank you sir”She smiled and quickly went to her room to dress up.
Ten minutes later, she joined me and I drop my puppy on the floor.
“Hey puppy, go meet your mom, will be back soon”I cooed rubbing it’s head and the dog whines softly before running into the house.
“Let’s go”
Her heels clicking the floor make me take my eyes from my phone and I look up at her.
The phone I’m holding fell on my hand and my mouth fell in shock.
Damn!
This girl is just too beautiful.
The long gown she wore fit her so perfectly, her hair packed up in a ponytail added a lot to her beauty.
Lucian is so dumb to realize this lady is a special gem.
“Sir, I hope it’s good or can I change it?”Her angelic voice shook me back to life and smiled.
“Yeah, it’s good on you, you can tell them to closed it for you”
“Okay sir thanks a lot”
Lily Pov
Getting to the house, I showed Mariam the dress and she was so marveled at the beauty of the dress.
“And you didn’t know the reasons he brought the dress for you?”
“I don’t know the reasons Mariam”
“Okay”
“He’s back already, he said you should come see him immediately you’re back”
“Okay, let me go check on him”
“Yeah”
Daniel Pov
“And you should tell me the damned reason why you are so bitter to that poor girl, tell me the reasons?”I yelled at him and his face remain so calm.
“Seriously?, Why so up this afternoon, what’s wrong with you, you know I don’t take that from anyone”
“I know you don’t take that from anyone, but what the hell is wrong with you?, You turned that lady into your sex slave and you hurt her to the extent that she is the one washing all your cars, you’re such a beast, you’re such…”
“Stop this Daniel, stop , you should stop acting like my parents”He roared and I scoff.
“I want you to know something Lucian, all these you’re doing won’t stop you from being bitter, The same thing your father did to your mom is the same thing you’re doing to Lily, you are such a bastard Lucian, I’m out of here”
Lily Pov
My hands trembled at the door knob as I listen to their heated argument.
Lucian really have a bitter past, No wonder he always hurt me during sex.
I hope things get better for him.
I was about to knock on the door when Daniel opened it, He look so enraged and angry making me so scared.
“Sir”I called and he took a glance at me, he sighed softly and his look soften a bit.
“Hi”He took a deep breath.
“Can I enter?”I said pointing to the door and he nodded.
“Yes, you can enter”He shrugged and turned to go but I stopped him.
“Is there a problem?”
“No dear, it’s just some normal friend’s feud we usually have but it’s resolved now”
“O… okay”I nodded and he walk away.
I think there’s something off with him.
I shook my head slowly before entering into the room.
