CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT

After a terrible encounter with Seun and his goons, Samuel was admitted to the hospital, where he spent a few days. His mother on the other hand mourned the death of her best friend. Given her untimely death, Mrs. Akande and Esther's family remained in pain for so long.

Shola took a while trying to soak in all the truth about what was happening behind her back. Seun was manipulating everything happening in her life to his benefits and she had absolutely no idea. Her father, her best friend and even Jimmy, she had finally come to know that Seun was behind it all. Speaking of Jimmy, Shola had a lot of apologizing to do to his older brother.

It had been one full month and Samuel and Shola had yet spoken again after the incident at Seun's house. Though she was full of words to say to Samuel, she had many more mixed emotions at the time, the stronger being shame. Shame that she wasn't able to trust Samuel.
