Chapter 55

 
The following day, Carl sat in the house with Kamela. She has been informed by Joel that he would be coming to the house quite early in the morning as he had no duty in the morning.
"Kamela!" She called looking at Kamela.
"Yes, Miss," Kamela answered.
"Did he let you know of the time he would be coming?" She asked but Kamela shook her head.
"No, Miss," Kamela said, and Carl sighed.
She walked up and looked at Kamela.
"Do let me know whenever he is around." She said and Kamela nodded.
She walked into her room and placed a call across to her fashion house telling them that she won't be coming.
"Hello, Naomi." She said when Naomi answered the call.
"Yes, Miss," Naomi said.
"I would like to inform you that I won't be coming today." She said.
"Alright, Miss. Do take care of yourself." She said and paused.
After the call, Carl looked up and smiled.
"I know God is aware of what is going on." She said to herself and lay on the bed.
Minutes later, there was a knock on her door, and she smiled, knowing that it was Kamela.
"I will be right down." She said and immediately got up.
"Alright, Miss," Kamela said and went down.
She got out of her room and walked down. She smiled on seeing Joel.
Kamela walked out of the kitchen minutes later with a snack.
"My love!" Joel called, seeing Kamela drop the plate of snacks in front of him.
"You need to get something down," Kamela said and Carl nodded.
Seeing Carl nodding, Joel picked up the snack in the plate and ate.
Kamela also offered him some water which he drank and rested for a while.
After some minutes, he looked up and asked Kamela to excuse them.
" Alright, my love," Kamela said and left.
"I do not know how to say this, Miss," Joel said.
"Say it anyhow," Carl said.
Joel brought out his laptop and switched it on.
"You decided to punish the wrong person," Joel said, and Carl looked at him, shocked.
"How?" She asked.
"I did some research on it but found this." He said, pointing to a picture, and Carl nodded.
"The exact button I pressed to listen to all he said," Carl said and he sighed.
He scrolled to Sarah's picture.
"I did some research on her and got to know she is in love with this man." He said scrolling to a picture.
"This man?" Carl asked confused.
"Yes, this man. He is called Brown, he has two ladies around him, Sarah and Trophy. He neither loves any of them but he is trying to take advantage of their love." Joel said.
Hearing this, Carl was shocked.
"I tracked down the location of Mr. Dylan and I saw a lady walk out of the house. Mr. Dylan neither looked happy nor sad." Joel said scrolling to the picture that he took of her walking out of the building.
"Clara!" Carl called.
"Here is a video taken by one of my spies," Joel said and placed a video.
"Good day, Miss." The spy said.
"Good day," Clara said.
"May I know your name, Miss?" The spy asked and Clara looked back at Dylan before responding.
"My name is Sarah. How may I help you?" She asked.
"I would be brief but now I would like to know your reason for dating?" The spy asked and Clara smiled.
"I love him which is all you should know." She said.
"Alright, Miss. Can I know how you got him to know you love him?" The spy said.
"He had a first love who didn't value him. Rather, she just wanted to use him, and after getting to know about her plot from me, he decided to leave her for the one who loves him." Clara said. "I also do not believe in love, but I do love him and won't allow anything to happen to him."
Joel looked at Carl, whose eyes were already wet, and pursued the video.
"Let's end the video here." He said and called for Kamela.
"Get her some water." He said and Kamela nodded.
"Clara is the real betrayal and not Sarah." She said.
She remembered how she gave Clara a job in her company.
Sarah walked to her with the cup of water which Joel gave her to drink.
"Drink up, Miss." He said and Carl collected the water from him and drank it.
"Miss, I will advise you not to do anything yet to Clara." He said. "I got to know that she is Clara from the Bonham region."
"Alright," Carl said.
"I will be at your fashion house quite early on Tuesday then we can act accordingly." He said and Carl nodded.
Joel got up and looked at Kamela.
"I would be going." He said and both Kamela and Carl nodded.
Kamela saw him out while Carl sighed.
"It's so great to have had Joel walk for me," Carl said.
"It's so great to work for you," Kamela said, walking inside, and Carl smiled,d, knowing what she meant by that.
Kamela walked to her and sat on the couch. She took one of Carl's palms into hers.
"I wouldn't have known Joel if I hadn't agreed to work for you, and I may still be single, waiting for my love." She said holding Carl's palm.
Carl smiled and touched her cheek remembering how hard it was for her to accept the job offer.
"You are such a sweet Child." She said. "I know Joel can't wait to have you in his hands." She said and Sarah nodded.
Carl looked up and thanked God that it wasn't Sarah who did it.
"I need to get to my room." She said taking off her hand from Kamela.
Kamela smiled as she saw her leave to her room.
Getting to her room, she walked to her phone and picked it up to call Sarah but remembering what Joel told her, she decided against it.
" I shouldn't call her now as I know that would be informed that I want her back," Carl said to herself then sat down on the bed.
"I am such a fool to believe that Sarah can do this to me, and I am a great fool to believe I wasn't Dylan's first love but it doesn't count still as he left me for that slut." Carl said feeling irritated. "He didn't trust me enough and left me for the lies of that slut."
She looked at her ring finger and took off the ring.
"I don't know my reason for keeping this with me. Maybe it's the reason I remember you." She said looking at it.
She walked down and out of the house with it and throws it away allowing the water flow taking it underground.
Seeing this, she let out a little scream.
"You are no longer a part of my life. I do not love you anymore." She said smiling. "I have thrown away the last hope of our relationship. You are no longer in my life."
She walked back into the house and saw Melinda staring at her.
"Miss, I heard a scream out there." Melinda said, and she smiled,shaking her head.
"Do not worry about it." She said and walked up into her room.
"Would you be going to the service?" Melinda asked as Carl walked up the stairs.
"Yes, I would," Carl said as she walked to her room.
She is going to thank God for not allowing her to marry Dylan because he would be a cheat to her if that happens.
"I do not care anymore about him, Lord. I won't fall in love anymore but live for you till the end." She said looking up as she entered her room.
She walked to her bed and sat.
"Dylan, you are out of my heart." She said.
Minutes later, she looked at her ring finger but couldn't see the ring. She pulled her hair and looked at the ring finger again.
"What have I done to myself? I have disposed the ring." She said. "It has been my only source of peace for the past two weeks but I just disposed it."
She decided to go check where she dropped the ring and walked out of the house.
She looked at the spot she had dropped it and rubbed her hair.
"It's covered." She said
She looked around.
"I hate you, Dylan." She said.
She immediately walked in and saw Robert walking out of the house.
"I will be leaving, Miss," Robert said and she nodded.
She stood watching Robert leave as she remembered the day her parent visited with words gotten from the investigation done by Robert.
"I should have let him go but I didn't." She said to herself and thought for a moment.
"My first love made me a fool." She said and ran up the stairs. "I can't let my parents know yet that I was betrayed."
Getting to her room, she locked the door and walked to the bed.
She laid on the bed and slept waking up minutes later due to a terrible dream.
"No, it can't be Dylan. Does this mean he is being tormented?" She asked herself and shook her head saying a word of prayer for him.
She remembered how he was beaten in the dream and shook her head.
"No, that's a lie. He could have put a call through even not speaking to me. His call will make me know about him being tormented, but no, he chose to be with Clara." She said to herself.
She shook her head and laughed.
"I should forget about him. I shouldn't be thinking about him." She said to herself then walked out of her room and down the stairs.
She called for Kamela and asked if she was done with what she was doing.
"Yes, Miss. I would just like to eat a little, then take a rest before joining Melinda." Kamela said and Carl nodded.
"Bring it to the living room." She said.
"Really!" Kamela looked at her surprised and she nodded.
"Alright, Miss," Kamela said and ran into the kitchen.
A few minutes later, she walked out with her tray and dropped it.
"Want to discuss with me?" Kamela asked and Carl shook her head.
"No, I just want to watch you eat as I feel bored." She said and Kamela smiled.
Kamela began to eat while Carl focused her attention on Kamela so as not to think of Dylan.
She prayed that Kamela's love story wouldn't be like hers.
"I won't spare him if he ever does like that to her." She said to herself smiling as she watched Kamela eat.
