Chapter 36



Fredrick walked towards her again to check her temperature and to calm down it was increasing.


He had nothing to give her so that her temperature could calm down so he decided to wait until the doctor got to the house.


He knew he had a visitor and he has kept the visitor waiting for a long time now. Though he doesn't really care if it's up to two hours because no one in the country matches his family standards, he doesn't know what the visit is for.


It might be something better than business. He brought out his phone from his pocket so he could call the doctor again, but the doctor didn't pick it up this time.


The doctor found his way to Fredrick's room and opened the door. Fredrick was already pissed so the moment the doctor walked in he walked out of the room.


'I'm sorry, I was busy before you called." The doctor said to Fredrick while Fredrick was walking out of the room.


'What is wrong with you?" The doctor asked Fredrick's girlfriend almost in a whisper. She smiled and made her way to his shirt button.


'Nothing, I was just missing you, but I really don't know how I feel, I have been sleeping all day, but I'm sure your presence will make me feel better." The young lady said to the doctor making advances towards him.


He pushed her hand away when he noticed she was going far with her hands.


'Stop it. I'm here to treat you, and not have sex with you." The doctor said to Fredrick's girlfriend strictly. He opened his bag and brought out the tools that he used to work.


'Why do you always act like you are not interested? Meanwhile you made me like this after that night with you." The doctor closed her mouth the moment she said this. It looks like she was really ready to ruin his life.


'What if anyone hears you?" The doctor asked and walked towards the door to open it. He checked and there was no one outside the room. He walked back to where she was sitting.


'If anyone hears us you'll be killed, not me, I'm his princess and he loves me. I'll just tell him I'm carrying his child and he won't hurt me." Fredrick's girlfriend said to the doctor confidently.


When he heard this he realized Fredrick's girlfriend is ready for him today and there is no way out for him.


She stood up and walked closer to him, she bit her lips and held his shirt moving him closer to her chest.


'I need you now." Fredrick's girlfriend whispered in the doctor's ear while her hand was struggling to remove his belt.

He stopped her when he noticed she was close to removing it already.


'I don't think this is the right place. What if he comes in and meets us on the bed together?" The doctor tried to give Fredrick's girlfriend a reason not to do it.


'He'll not be back anytime soon." She said to him as they both laid on the bed.


Fredrick was on his way to the guest area to see who the visitor was, but he stopped when he heard his phone ring.


He checked who the caller was and he realized it's one of his debtors. He picked the call immediately with a mischievous smile on his face.


'Hello, Hello." Fredrick said the moment he picked the call, the caller was quiet the moment he heard Fredrick's voice.


'Good day sir." The debtor greeted shockingly.


'My men are at your place now right?" Fredrick asked the debtor. Then he laughed out loud. 'Just give them what you owe me and they'll be out of there." Fredrick added.


The debtor was in his house having little lunch with his family when Fredrick boys walked in.


The debtor is a very rich business man, he was at the top among one of the richest men in the country until he suddenly started losing money. Business was getting bad everyday.


He started taking looks from banks, the debt was getting too much for him and he was owing about three banks already. He heard Fredrick was loaning money at that time so he decided to give it a try by visiting Fredrick to grant him the loan.


Fredrick gave him the grace of three years to pay back the loan. It's up to six years now and the man is still yet to pay back the loan.


He is the only person Fredrick has ever been nice to because he did good for their father once in the past.


But the man was not serious about paying back the loan anymore and this got Fredrick upset.


'Yes sir, please can you be a little patient with me? I'll pay you when I get my pay from the new job I started." The man pleaded. Fredrick smiled when he heard the debtor finish talking.


'How much is your salary?" Fredrick asked the man because he knew that the man's salary will not be anywhere close to the amount he owes him. The man was quiet because he realized his salary is not even enough to feed them and talk less of paying a debt that's up to millions.


'Give the phone to my man." Fredrick said to the debtor. The debtor was relieved because it seemed like Fredrick wanted to tell them to return back to base.


'Come back with their daughter." It was on speaker so the man heard what Fredrick said. He opened his eyes wider than usual when he heard what Fredrick said to his man.


'No. Please take me, not my daughter." The man pleaded. Fredrick could hear what the man was saying from the phone call, and listening to the man's voice made a smile escape his lips.


'Fool." Fredrick said to himself, while listening to the man and his wife.


'Don't worry, I'll take good care of her here." Fredrick concluded and hung up. The man was still not in support of his baby girl being taken away by a man like Fredrick.


There is no way she'll not be influenced into a very bad lifestyle.


The man was struggling so that the girl would not be taken away. During the process of the struggle one of the men threw him away and he hit his head on the center table in their small house.


His wife moved her attention to him and Fredrick boys took the girl away. Even when she was calling her mom as dad they were unable to help because her dad was already unconscious.


Fredrick had already hung up so he put his phone back in his pocket.


The man was rushed to the hospital by his wife. They paid the hospital I'll with the only money left with them to feed. The man's wife was already tired of all the sufferings she had been going through with her husband since he lost his empire.


She stayed with him because she once believed he'll be back on his feet but instead of things getting better it actually got worse.


So she concluded I'm leaving him. She turned to look at him and saw that he was already conscious.


'Why is your face like that? Don't worry I'm fine, I'll go get our daughter." The man said to his wife trying to make her feel better.


She didn't say anything, instead she wiped her tears away and looked away. When she was done wiping her tears she turned to look at him.


'I'm leaving?" The man was still in pain, his head was still hurting badly so the news made it get worse. He turned to look at her, so he can be sure she means what she is saying.


'Where are you leaving? Did you get a job outside the country?" The man asked the woman and later smiled because he felt it was a good thing if it's a job that she got.


Tears welled down her eyes as she thought of how she would break the news to him, the way she was crying rang a bell to him that it may not be what he actually thinks.


'Why are you crying?" He asked her again, she turned to look at him and wiped the tears away. Both of their eyes met.


'I did not get any job outside the country." She said to the man and tears welled down her eyes again.


'I really don't know how to say this but, I'm tired of everything, I have tried to be patient and just assure myself that everything will be back to normal but the more I try to tell myself that the more what happens tells me that there is no change anytime soon." The man placed his hand on his head because he was stressing his head by trying to think of what his wife was trying to say.


'What do you mean?" The man asked her as he was praying it's not what he thinks that's about to happen.


'I'm leaving you." His wife finally broke the news. The man was shocked to hear what his wife said. He has been trying to comfort himself with the idea that his wife does not actually mean what he is thinking.


'Please tell me you don't mean that, you are pulling my legs right." The man asked his wife, trying not to cry because she might be joking, she pushed his hand away from her hand and shifted from his side by standing up.


'I mean what I said." His wife said to him trying to be strong. It felt like the man's life was falling apart in a day. Tears welled down his eyes as he looked away. He has been coping all these years because he has his wife and daughter by his side and now both have been taken away from him because he lacks money.


'Please think about it." His wife turned around and was about to walk out of the room when she heard his voice. She tried not to cry but she couldn't hold it in because she loves her husband very much but sometimes love is just not enough.


She walked away without replying to her husband to prove to him that she thought about it very well before concluding.


The man put everything on Fredrick, he felt Fredrick was the one that caused the breakup in his family. If he had not taken his daughter away, his wife would have never thought of leaving him.


'He ruined my life, I regret the day I took that loan." The man said to himself as he thought of how life has been really unfair to him.


Fredrick continued walking to go see the guest that's here to see him. While he was heading there he saw some of his boys lazing around so he had to scold them. After addressing them he continued going to see the guest.

Fredrick walked to the guest room, it's but a room where one sleeps, it's a sitting room where all his new visitors are always attended to.


When he got there, he sighted the young man that was sitting on the couch. He was wondering what such a young boy wanted to say to him. He looked at the bags beside him and smiled.


'Looks like it's really business." Fredrick said to himself as a smile escaped his lips. He walked closer to the boy, and the moment the young boy saw him he stood up.


Fredrick looked at the bags on the floor beside him and he tried to weigh it with his eyes, the young man noticed Fredrick's eye was glued to the bag on the floor.


He smiled because he knew the meeting would be successful.


'Good day boss." The young man greeted Fredrick as a smile escaped his lips. Fredrick did not reply to his greeting, he just sat down and looked at the young man very well. He was trying to know why such a young boy would want to see him with those bags.
