Married to the President novel Chapter 8

Rosa's mother knew Theresa was going to tell them things after the kids fell asleep. She was not surprised when she saw Rosa and Theresa walk out hand in hand.

  Theresa sat down and Rosa opposed her. Rosa's brother Hong had gone out for a computer game with his friends.

  "I'll never stop thanking you Aunt and Rosa for being my support in the darkest hour of my life. I believe there will never be a time that I will experience such thick darkness like I did four years ago.

  I discovered I was pregnant when I went to the hospital to check up. I didn't know what to do at the time. I don't have money,no job and I don't know the one who got me pregnant.

   But the doctor who attended to me took it upon himself to check on me later. I told him everything that happened and he decided to seek the help of his foster parents.

  They are based in Country X. They agreed and promised to look after me and the pregnancy. So I got a Visa and travelled out without telling you.

  They welcomed me and I even started a job there. I had a lot of savings and once a doctor friend came around and spent two weeks with me.

  They looked after me until I gave birth to my babies. His mother took over as the nanny and babysitter the boys while I worked to save money for my return.

  But after three years, I decided the boys were grown a little bit and I needed to return home. I told my friend Lanre I was planning to return and he said he would tell me when he helped me secure a job first.

  Last week he called me and told me I have been offered an appointment as an executive designer in the Li's Group and here I am" Theresa Mo explained briefly.

  Rosa's eyes welled up. So much has passed under the bridge within the past four years. If Theresa Mo had told her she was pregnant, she wouldn't have allowed her travel out.

   "You could have at least reached us since you left Theresa. I was wondering if we have in any way hurt you and we didn't know. 

  But I know that your return will be the beginning of a new life for you Theresa.

You and your Sons are going to live your life to the fullest.

  We'd like to meet your friend Doctor Lanre. Some good people can't help but bring their kindness into their job and such people need to be appreciated" Rosa's mother chimed.

  She's happy that Theresa Mo took the wise decision of birthing her babies. Some girls would have taken the decision to abort the pregnancy but she didn't.

  She's going to be a great mother. And her kids would be the most important thing that has ever happened to her.

  Theresa Mo assured them she would pass their appreciation to Lanre and also invite him over. She then told them she would be buying a house tomorrow at Lane's recommendation.

  She will move out with her boys tomorrow and start her new job the day after tomorrow. She would like Rosa to accompany her to see the house. 

 The two friends then catch up on old times before saying goodnight to each other and going to their individual room.

  That night, it took a while before Theresa could sleep. She was ruminating over her life four years ago.

  Lu Jingli and Tiana Mo must be living happily now. Her sister felt it was convenient to take her man away without the blink of an eye.

   She and her ex husband don't really have any feelings for each other. But it shouldn't be her sister that he would go and be married to. 

  Molly had really poisoned Tiana's mind against her. The sister she knew and grew up with loves her. No one would believe they were not from the same mother.

   Her father had always treated them like twins. Whatever he bought for Theresa, Tiana is getting the same thing. If he can't get two, he wouldn't buy it rather than not giving it to one person.

  That way,they both grew up, seeking the same thing for each other. But her father's death makes  everything take a different dimension.

  Karma would catch up with Molly for what she's done to her and her sister. She would surely regret it someday.

  While Theresa was thinking that Tiana and Lu Jingli are happy, something else was troubling them:
