I wasn't myself when I dropped the call,I traced the address that was given to me, when I got to the spot but I didn't see anyone so I called that number to ask about my fiance's whereabouts "Hel?hello?" please where is he"?with the phone shaking in my hands as if it will fall ,crying like a baby.He replied,he has been taking to one of the hospitals nearby"
He described the place,as I got to where Nelson was admitted,I met him on a drip with his eyes closed.
I bursted into tears holding his right hand."Please don't do this to me my love, you're all I have" he opened his eyes immediately he heard my voice,he looked into my eyes with his unique,charming smile and said " darling it's nothing serious,I will be fine."
As soon as he ulter that statement,I felt relieved.All I saw was just some bruises on his left leg, nothing much,just a little wound.
He attended to and was given some medication,we were asked to stay till the following day so as for him to get enough rest.
I went to a nearby restaurant,got some food for him to eat.After some hours,it was like nothing happened,we started gisting.He was discharged the following morning and we left.He was hale and hearty.
He has told his parents much about me on the phone and I have spoken with them several times,so we fixed a date to go and see them in Miami so we could get our wedding done,like going to the court and signing papers.
All this while,I have been begging my uncle on the phone so he can come to my wedding because I'm not ready to quit the relationship.I even sent Sarah's grandma and some other people to beg him on my behalf, trying to convince him and his wife.
And thank God he accepted because he's left with no choice.
I told Sarah on the phone,"I'm getting married soon and am expecting you to be there" .
"Congratulations, Rosey" she said excitedly and also said that she can't wait to see me happy again.
Nelson is not rich, he's just a poor Uber driver and the car he's surviving with had been stolen so the wedding isn't going to be elaborate.
We left for Miami the following month,as we got to the little apartment his mom and dad were staying in,he ushered me in to meet his parents.They received me with the best hug ever,they offered me a seat and treated me like their daughter.
They were so excited to see their daughter in law.Nelson's younger sister went to the kitchen,cooked and served us a delicious meal.
The next day,My uncle drove down to Miami after a lot of pleading so as to witness how the wedding would go. He didn't support me with a penny because of the hatred he has for Nelson.I was broke like a church rat since I wasn't working yet.
I knew his mind already,they both wanted to come and laugh at me,to shame me and see me suffer at the end.
My uncle and his wife got down from his car.I tried to welcome him and pushed away, behaving like an insane person, he didn't even answer Nelson's greetings.He snubbed everyone.
Sarah had been around earlier before my uncle's arrival.
As we were about heading to the court,the next thing I saw was?
My uncle walked down to where Nelson is,spat in him.you stinking,worthless boy.
"You wanna get married to my niece when you don't have the money to take care of her?,so you can come begging from me to feed." "Anyways let's see how the marriage will work"He said in front of everyone and then went back to his seat angrily.
I already dressed up in a simple gown attire that would benefit a court wedding ceremony and Nelson is also dressed in a white suit and a black shoe.
Few minutes later,a man came in wearing a black suit walked directly to where Nelson is seated,he folded his hand to the back and bow his head in a respectful manner to say " Mr.donald Jones,the contract with Bernard group of company has been awarded to us and we need you to sign some papers sir."
I turned to Nelson's face and looked at the man's face at the same,I replied there must have been a mistake somewhere,this is not Mr.Donald Jones.
My uncle bursted into laughter and said to the man" I think you must have missed your way or something,the Mr. Donald Jones we all know is a reputable man that owns one of the top 5 steel companies in the U.S and my son is their accountant,So it's obvious you don't know what you're talking about."
He continued,"this is just a common,poor Uber driver that has no future.
And then the man in a suit faced my uncle and said " how dare you talk to my boss like that?,but Nelson asked him to leave.
"Don't worry" , start going,I will join you in a few hours.
I was dumb founded,I didn't understand what was going on anymore.I wanted to ask if he knew that man that just left but time was far gone and we're late for the registry.
Few minutes later,we got to the registry and they were about to take an oath.The man said" will you Rosey Smith, take Donald Jones as your lawfully wedded husband?" This time I was in a state of confusion and needed someone to explain what was going on.
I paused and looked at the man's face, Nelson didn't say a word,he was just smiling.We exchanged marital vows.
I stretched out my hand,he inserted the ring,a precious Golden ring worth millions,I kept wondering where he got the money from.He gave me his hand and I inserted the remaining one in one of his fingers.
My uncle and his wife, including Sarah, kept murmuring and wondering what was going on too.It was as if we were all dreaming.My uncle kept saying "that can never be Mr. Donald and he immediately turned to everyone and yes I am Donald Jones,the chairman of Donald steels group of companies.I disguised myself as an Uber driver in order to find my better half and am happy I got her.
We were all shocked looking at him surprisingly.
"Please someone should wake me up from my slumber" I said to myself.
He stepped forward and turned to my uncle and said "Mr.Albert, I have known you to be a bad person all these years,I expected you would change but you didn't.Sarah told me everything that happened between you and her and how sexually abused her,what a shame.
You said your son works with my company as an accountant right?
I am therefore ordering your son to be sacked with immediate effects.
My uncle and his wife started begging and then he asked the security guards to bundle him out.He was locked up for his criminal acts.
That was the beginning of my happiness when I thought all hope was lost.
Am happily married to a billionaire and living a luxurious life I could ever imagine.
The end.
