Free Web NovelChapter 275: Stay Away From My Wife
On the weekend Zyair and Skyla bought a cake and went to give the good news to Meena. They wanted to keep the news a secret for now, so only the closed ones were informed.
Wishing to surprise Meena and personally give her the news, they arrived at Meena Mansion in the evening.
"What a pleasure, I missed you people," Meena cheered, embracing both of them turn by turn.
"We missed you as well, so here we are." Zyair hugged his mother close. freёweɓnovel.com
"And we came bearing glad tidings," Skyla added while they settled down in the drawing room.
Meena’s curiosity was piqued as Skyla and Zyair passed knowing glances between each other. Skyla nodded at her husband, letting him know that he should be the one to tell her.
Zyair turned his attention to Meena and took her hand in his as he informed her with a content heart.
"Mom! You are going to become a grandmother. Skyla is pregnant."
For a second Meena couldn’t believe her ears and then she turned to Skyla with widened eyes that had tears of happiness swimming in them.
"I am going to be a grandmother." Her voice came out all impassioned, her hand flew to her face as a small sniffle left her.
"Yes, mom." Skyla gently smiled and squeezed her hands.
"Thank you, for bringing me such joy. I never thought I would live to see the day." Meena’s emotional words stirred their hearts. Making them realise what a blessing it was to bring a new life into this world.
They had dinner with Meena and she suggested they get Madame Maven to live with them.
"Yes, I had promised her that she would live with me once we settled down. Now I will need her help." Skyla agreed with her suggestion.
"I will send Kail over to bring her tomorrow. Talk to her on the phone and inform her," Zyair interjected while enjoying his mom’s special stew.
"I will do that."
"If you ever need me for anything, don’t hesitate. Pregnancy is hard as far as I have heard and you will need all the support," Meena frankly told Skyla before turning to face her son with a sly smile. "And my son you will need all the patience."
"I am a patient man, you know that." Zyair shrugged his shoulders, not understanding why his mother would say that.
"It will be tested, all those new hormones. Good luck." She soberly patted his shoulder.
Leaving both Skyla and Zyair wondering what she meant.
They stayed the night at Meena’s place and left for their home the next day. Skyla had spoken to Madame Maven and she was ready and more than happy to come live with them.
Kail went to fetch her. On her arrival, Skyla and Madame Maven embraced each other.
"Thank you! For coming."
"You have been blessed, my child, I am here to take care of you." Maven was holding back tears of joy. Her young miss was finally living the life she deserved.
They sat talking and Maven offered all the advices she possessed to Skyla.
Zyair left the ladies to catch up and told Kail to keep guard. He had important business to attend to, now that they were bringing another life into this world, it was time to tie up the loose ends. Especially, the ones who wished to hurt his wife.
He had promised Skyla that he wouldn’t call or speak with Doran but he couldn’t let the likes of him roam free anymore.
"I will be back, you catch up with Madame Maven." He kissed his wife’s temple, greeted Maven and left the house.
Once Zyair was in his car, he dialled Rais; who picked up on the second bell and said.
"Hey! What’s up?"
"Hey! Were you able to gather any information on him?" Zyair curiously asked.
Doran had been in hiding ever since he was released from jail. Hardly anyone had seen him and he didn’t even turn up to handle the affairs of Adam Corporation. All tasks were taken care of on the phone. Someone was feeding him money to keep the company afloat so the shares wouldn’t fall and Zyair wouldn’t be able to acquire them.
According to Zyair’s calculations Doran was bankrupt, so where was he getting the money? And the bigger question was, where was he hiding?
"Not much, we are unable to detect where his calls originate from. Someone big is funding him to be able to pull all that shit. To hire assassins and stalkers." Rais’s words made sense and Zyair wondered who could be behind him.
"I appreciate your help man. I will handle the rest." The call ended after that.
Zyair had arrived at the place of his tech genius; Eris. He was expecting his boss.
"Is everything in place?"
"It is, Sir. We can begin any time."
Phone trackers, voice recorders, his laptop and other needed devices were ready.
It was time to call the devil and see if he could rile him up into revealing something useful.
Taking out Doran’s contact, Zyair turned on the call recording and then hit the call button.
The rage gripped every muscle in Zyair’s body as the call connected and his annoying voice came through.
"Ah! The Reverend Mr Zyair has finally decided to call me. Should I say I am honoured?"
Zyair brought his teeth together in rage but restrained control. Losing his cool wouldn’t get him anywhere.
"If I hadn’t made a promise this call would have come earlier," Zyair retorted and Eris indicated with his hands to keep going.
"So you stopped hiding behind Skyla and throwing her under the bus? And finally manned up to call me," he mocked tauntingly, rubbing the stubble on his face.
"That’s my wife you are talking about. Talk about her with respect. It’s funny though coming from a guy who just got out of jail for domestic abuse and sexual violence. Why don’t we cut the chase and get to the point?" Zyair answered too calmly for Doran’s liking. He had imagined that Zyair would rile up a bit. Not understanding Zyair was more skilled in the mind games.
"How can I help you Mr Zyair? Haven’t you taken enough from me? My wife, my company. What more can I possibly offer you?" Doran tried to take a jibe at Zyair.
"There is nothing I want from the likes of you. The best you can do is to keep that slimy nose from meddling in our life. You keep disturbing our peace with your annoying little tricks, like the petulant bug you are. But maybe you forgot how I squish the bugs like you under my shoe. I am coming for you Doran and this time I will ensure you are locked up forever in a place where you won’t even see the light of the day."
Zyair warned him and disconnected the call.
Once the call ended, Eris began digging and tracking. Although he couldn’t track where the call originated from he was able to track a few of the calls Doran had received. And one of them was extremely bone-chilling so he decided to tell Zyair.
