" So tell me, old man, what do you have for me". Peggy had been trying all she could to make uncle Moses tell her the truth but still all that he says was.
" If you will be soo heatless to kill your father then do it quickly before the news spread about you". That was all he told Peggy.
" I said tell me what's you have for me,...I have given you almost two weeks to talk, but you are still refusing. Am I not your child as you claim...if that is true then why will you also be heatless towards your blood. Why will you like to see your daughter suffer"
" Yes ..you..u are my dau..ghter but I di..dn't raise you... and I don't think those who raised you will tea..ch you to be the..is arrogant..nt and pride. I will also blame myself for not raising my child ". His voice was shivering and he couldn't even speak on point.
" Ooh, so you are saying if you were to raise me I won't be this...hell you old man do you think I will ever accept you soo easy to be my father..and wait I don't even know where you are from and just then you appear in my life...I'm telling you this one last time. If you don't tell me why you came I will personally kill you". She said into his ears almost whispering.
" Hmm..you are wai..ting to..o long my dear, why don't you just end my life here and now then I will know that am gone because my daughter killed me with her own bare hands "
" You are soo annoying old man..mmm...but look I'm not going to kill you just like that. I going to make you suffer a painful death". She said and got up from the chair she was sitting on.
"Any dead I will accept..but yours I can't tell"
He said and smirked.
Peggy looked at him scolded and went away. She took her car keys also.
Just when she entered her car, someone called her.
" Peggy ". She turned her back only to meet her mother's flaming face.
" What are you doing here by this time Peggy?". Her mother said almost shouting.
She quickly run towards her mother.
" Mmm...mo..there...I..I..was just checking something in our old house..I think I forgot something here". She said faking a good smile to covered her shocked face.
( Ooh God don't let my mother catch me)
" Okay so have you found it". Her mother said.
" Of course mom is in my car". She said pointed at her car.
" Okay then let's go home"
" Sure mom". She took her car and her mother also took her car and then drove off the road.
" Ooh God thank you, my mom, nearly got me..what will I have told her if she have caught me...I don't have any good lie in mind". She said and relaxed her drive.
She went home and threw herself on her bed then she took her phone. Suddenly she had a call from one of her bodyguards.
" Hey fool why are you calling me by this time"
"My queen please there is something you need to see for yourself"
" What the hell is that"
" Please I have sent it to you on WhatsApp message please go and check"
" Are you mad can't you tell me what is it"
" Sorry my queen..but please I dare not read how they have written it to you"
" What nonsense.. anyway hang up and let me go and check what the hell is happening"
They end the call and she quickly switched on her cellular data and went to see what he was talking about.
( Peggy is not the real heiress of the Jones family)
" What the fuck..who the hell did this"
She said and sprung off from her bed with one stand. She started pending up and down in her room.
Just then someone knocked on her door, she quickly jumped on her bed and covered herself with her blanket.
" Peggy". Her mother called her but she was pretended as if she was far asleep.
"Peggy..wake up don't sleep wake up and check what is trending on the media now wake up". She said shouting at her. Peggy couldn't take the noise anymore so she got up.
" Mom what is it"
" What is what.. look at what is tending on the media now"
" What is tending mom". Pretending not to know what her mom was talking about.
" Okay check it yourself if you are saying you haven't seen it"
She took her phone and showed her what she already no but was just pretending not to know about it.
" What..!!."
Peggy shouted when she saw the new news that was part of the one she just saw.
" But mom..". She wanted to say something but she was short of words.
Just then her father also entered the room with another piece of news, saying that the real heir is Cecilia Jones.
" My dear do you remember when Cecilia told us to change her name? Mr Jones asked his wife.
" Yes dear"
" Then today I need to tell this out"
Mr. Jones began to tell them that, he had been suspicious of Peggy since the day she told them to change her name. Mr. Jones had all the time no that Peggy was hiding something from them. Just because she look exactly like Cecilia they thought it was her all that while.
"Peggy if you are really our daughter Cecilia then why don't you have that mark on your face". her mother also added.
Just then their maid came in and told them that there were a lot of people at the main gate and they had tried all they could to stopped them but still they were not going.
" I think is the media"
Mrs Jones said.
" I knew it ..they will be here within a second to ask whether is true or not". He said looking at them scolded.
" All this is your fault". He said shouting at Mrs. Jones.
" How is it my fault"
" How is it your fault.. the day that accident happened I remember I told you to ask your daughter why she want to change her name all of a sudden..you never did..it was soo strange that the mark on her face suddenly disappeared..and a whole lot change about her I try to tell you that she ...". he paused and went out of the room, shutting the door behind.
" Mother what is going on "
" Are you asking me...I don't know "
" But mom was there really a mark on my face"
" Yes, my dear there was a mark on your face when I gave birth to you. but why are you asking me didn't you saw it your self when you were kid and you even asked me a day that, why is the mark there. don't you remember "
( So that mark on... Magdalene's face...wait don't tell me Magdalene is the real..no..no.. that poor girl)
" Hello ". She was still out of the room and was busy thinking that all that is just in her imagination but it was real when she felt her mother's hands on her shoulder.
"Yes, yes mom..I remember"

They finally took the case before the court to get things right. They called for Aaron and Robin to come and explained anything they know about what they were saying.
Aaron walked forward with his lawyer. After he asked all that he wanted to asked from him, he turned to Peggy and asked her what she had to say about what Aaron said. Like we all know what she was good at, pretending. She pretended to have no anything about what Aaron was saying.
" Okay, my last question..". Everyone's attention was on him now.
" Do you know anyone called uncle Moses"
The whole place was as quite as cemetery. Everyone was quiet because of the name they heard.
" No, I don't know him". Peggy said with boldness.
" Okay then... please let him come in". Just then uncle Moses entered the courtroom. Suddenly the room was enveloped with silence and all eyes were set on him.
" Okay Peggy have you remember him now"
Aaron said with a bold smirk.
" No, I still don't remember who this old man is "
Peggy kept on denying him that she doesn't know who he is.
" Okay then.. please I will like to show you what I have about both of them". Aaron went down and brought out a pen drive then he asked permission from them to play it. They agreed with him to play it. And he projector it on the wall for everyone to see what he has for them. It started to play.
( Ooh..no I thought I had burned all that..why do they still have it...I'm done...I shouldn't have burned it ..I ..I thought that was nothing..oooh .noo..I'm soo doomed!!!)
Peggy said to herself and bowed her head down.
" Uncle Moses here did that himself so if you have any questions please kindly ask him that is why he is here". Mr. Jones had been quiet all that while, he was totally out of words for seeing his friend again. He was thinking that maybe he is going to blame him for all that happened but no he didn't even call him a bad person after everything was settled he thanked him for taking care of her daughter Peggy.
" Jones". Uncle Moses called him when they were all out of the courtroom.
" Yes Moses.. please"
"No, you don't have to beg me I own a whole lot, my friend". Uncle Moses said.
" No I also owe you a lot.. please can you come to my place and have dinner with me this evening together with Cecilia and Peggy ".
"I don't know where Cecilia is but I know that her friend must no where she is "
" Okay but please ask her friends too to come with her ".
" Okay, I will bye ". He waved at him and took a taxi back to his house.
***
" Is done is done...we did it Cecilia finally you can have peace of mind". Becky came shouting.
" What did the court say on that"
"Yes, Cecilia they have accepted you as the real heiress of the Jones family". Elle backed up with her noisy talked.
" Hey, all of you this call for what..". Andy said
" Celebration!!!" They all shouted.
They had a good time together.
***
Finally, the night came and they went to Mr. Jones's house and had a big get-together.
" Mm.. please attention". Mr. Jones said kicking the glass he was holding with a table knife.
Everyone drew his or her attention on him.
" I will like to welcome my daughter to you all.. Cecilia please come". Cecilia was still sitting down..she was busy looking at the floor. She didn't know how to get up and go to her father with her pregnancy.
The court didn't know about that and she thought her father also didn't know about that too
" My dear don't feel shy because of your pregnancy". She looked up at her father at once then she looked around her to see if it was a shocked to her only or if her friend was shocked to. But to her surprised it wasn't a shocked to any of her friends but to her only.
" So dad you know about it already". Everyone was surprised to hear her calling Mr. Jones a dad.
" My dear, uncle Moses told me everything and he apologize for that.. please forgive him for he only did that for the truth please"
" Ooh dad I have already forgiven him about that".
"okay my dear then please you are once again welcome to your own house". He said and they all clapped their hands for them.
Mrs Jones came in later on with a whole lot of gifts for everyone.
But that night Peggy didn't show up in the house. They went on searching for her everywhere but still, they were no sign of her anywhere.
She didn't even come for her certificate after their graduation.
***
" So have you heard anything about Peggy". Dora asked Andy one day when they were all on a trip to South Korea.
" No...and why should I care about her"
" I thought you said you are going to search for her maybe she had hidden because she is making plans to deal with us"
" She dare not do that". Robin said from behind.
" Robin when did you come...are you all here too". Dora asked.
" Yes we were back long time, but we were just taking some air under the trees "
" Okay.. where are the rest". Andy asked
" They are still there..I think they don't want to sleep tonight ". Robin said again.
" I'm going to my room bye ". He waved at them and went away.
" So tell me, Becky..now that you have graduated what is on your mind to do"
Aaron asked Becky when everyone left them and went inside their room.
" Go on hunting with you". Becky said and smiled.
" What hunting are you talking about"
" While you forgot so soon...but I still remember"
" Ooh, that...I have remember but please is too dangerous so I have taken you out"
" Wait what..you fired me already "
" Yes Miss you have been fired a long time "
" What the hell did I do wrong "
" You didn't do anything but the job doesn't fit you"
" So what do you think I should do"
" I heard you and Elle talking about something the other day"
" What was that "
" You were saying that..you prefer to be a waiter even if you have all the money in this world.. so I thought about it and I ...I.."
He paused.
" You what "
" Nevermind "
" But why.. .you were soo close telling me ..all of a sudden you stopped why?".
" Ooh nothing I will tell you when we go back to Ghana "
" Are you sure "
" Of course, have I ever lied to you before?".
" Okay okay, Mr trustworthy.. hahaha ". She said and smiled.
They spent some more time together before they also went to their room.
(Nine months later)
Cecilia gave birth to a handsome hairy baby boy. The baby was the most handsome baby the doctors have ever received for the whole year.
" My dear are you sure your husband is not a geek god". That was what everyone say when they saw her baby.
The baby was with pure ocean blue eyes and his face was white as snow. His cute pink lips were another madly beautifuly thing on him.
" Ooh God this baby is driving me crazy anytime I set my eyes on him". Elle said when they all came to the hospital to have a look at the newborn baby and his mother.
" Will you stop crushing on an innocent baby"
Becky shouted at her and drayg her out of the room.
" Hey, you..hey you wait I wanna send him to my house wait". Elle said and shouted.
" Hmm..if you like him soo badly ask Robin to give you one.. beside is easy to get.. haha". Becky said and laughed at her.
" Hey, you watch your mouth ". Elle said and raised her hands in the air ready to beat Becky.
" is okay all of you stop...I think very soon you will all get one ". Mrs. Jones said from behind.
" Good morning Mrs"
They all greeted her.
" Morning..how are you all doing today"
They responded to her and she went in to see her daughter.
" Aww this is oo cute.. when will I give birth for my mother to come and visit me with soo much gift". Elle said while hugging herself.
" Will you stop your daydream Miss?" Robin said in an annoyed voice.
" Hey shut up have I called you "
" Mm.. sorry "
They all laughed and went back to look at Cecilia and her adorable newborn baby.
Mr. Jones hosted a very big party to welcome his grandchild. The party wasn't a normal one but it was for the VIP group. It was a very big grand party for people on a high-class level.
They party the whole day without rest.
