What are you doing here?
“I am sorry,” Brandon said and Hannah paused at once.
Did she just hear the rude Brandon Colby say he his sorry and from the tune of his voice, he meant what he had said?
Hannah raised her head and turned to him wondering if Brandon was the one who just apologized.
“I am sorry, I was wrong, I am sorry,” Brandon said and Hannah scoffed. She pinched herself thinking she was in a dream. Brandon would never apologize if he did anything wrong, the only time he apologizes is in front of her children.
“So, can I help you now?” Brandon said and Hannah didn’t say a word.
He put the towel on her hair and helped her dry her hair. He then walked towards the wardrobe, brought out a big shirt and helped her put it on gently because of her hands that hurt.
At first, Hannah didn’t want to agree but she had no choice but to give in. He took a comb, helped her brush her hair, and packed the hair in a messy bun.
Hannah wondered where he learned how to pack hair. Just then Brandon heard his phone ring. He checked the caller’s ID and then went outside the room to answer the call.
Hannah stood up and decided to go pick up a short from the wardrobe since she wasn’t wearing anything under her clothes.
She took the shorts and managed to put them on. She then walked towards the bed and sat on it. Just then Brandon walked in.
“Are you alright now? Is there anything else you need? And how’s your hand? Did the doctor come over this evening to check on it again?” Brandon asked in the most caring tone ever and Hannah stared at him confused.
She wondered what was wrong with him and wondered why he was so sweet all of a sudden.
“You should drop the act, being nice doesn’t look good on you. Besides, my children aren’t here. So, you shouldn’t pretend” Hannah said and Brandon frowned at her.
He’s trying to be nice to her and she’s pretending she doesn’t like him being nice.
“You don’t get to see this side of me twice,” Brandon said and Hannah rolled her eyes.
“You should go, I need to rest,” Hannah said and Brandon hummed.
“I’m not leaving, this room is mine too and I’m going to sleep beside you on the bed,” Brandon said and Hannah frowned
“What!? You can’t do that. We are not married. It’s just a contract marriage and what if….” Hannah paused, staring at Brandon and Brandon laughed.
“Don’t be scared sweetheart, I’m not going to touch you, besides you are not my type of woman” Brandon said and Hannah scoffed.
“Neither are you my type. You ain’t even handsome, I wonder what your mistress saw in you” Hannah said and Brandon frowned at once and stared at himself from head to toe wondering if Hannah was telling the truth.
A lot of women do flirt with him and make advances towards him but he didn’t give a damn about them and they all called him handsome and now this woman dares call me ugly and that I’m not even his type, Brandon thought as he stared at Hannah who had now laid on the bed and covered herself properly with the duvet.
Just then Brandon walked out of the room to the guest room and then stood in front of the mirror while staring at his face.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
I’m handsome right, or I’m not, I wonder why she doesn’t find me attractive, Brandon thought as she stared at his reflection in the mirror.

It was morning and a new day, Hannah had woken up early and asked the maids to help her kids get dressed for school.
After they were done getting dressed, they went to the dining table where they ate breakfast and just then Brandon came and joined them at the dining table.
“Good morning Daddy” The octuplets echoed at once with a smile on their face immediately after they saw Brandon.
Brandon smiled at them.
“I hope you guys slept well?” Brandon asked and they nodded in response as they are.
“I’ll be the one dropping you guys off at school today, Mommy is still in the point of healing, so for now, I’ll be the one taking you guys to school,” Brandon said, and Hannah who hadn’t said a word since Brandon arrived raised her head and stared at him.
“What do you think you are trying to do Brandon?” Hannah scoffed as she thought.
“You shouldn’t bother, I will be the one dropping them off myself,” Hannah said as she shot Brandon a deadly glare.
“But Mommy you won’t be able to drive properly. Daddy, should take us to school, besides, our teacher has been wanting to meet our daddy, we can introduce daddy to our teacher and our friend David” Allison said and Hannah sighed softly.
“Fine, you guys should eat. You do not want to be late” Hannah said and Brandon smiled inwardly.
When they were done eating, they all stood up and kissed Hannah on her cheeks.
“We love you, Mommy” the kids echoed at once and went outside to Brandon’s car to wait for him while he finished eating.
When Brandon was done, he wiped his mouth and drank from the glass of water on the table, and stared at Hannah for some seconds before he finally spoke.
“You should take good care of yourself and if you need anything, you should ask the maids for help.
The doctor would be coming over to check on you” Brandon said and Hannah rolled her eyes.
Brandon picked up his phone on his table and was about to walk out of the house when the door burst open revealing Grandma Elizabeth, holding a little puppy.
Immediately Brandon saw her, his face changed immediately.
“What are you doing here?” Brandon asked
“Don’t kill me with that look of yours, I came to get my remaining stuff. I will get them and leave at once” Elizabeth said
“I do not want to meet you in this house by the time I return,” Brandon said and with that, he walked past her.
Elizabeth gave out a breath of relief and sighed softly. Her grandson had changed a lot toward him and it’s because of that witch of a wife, Elizabeth thought with a frown. She put the dog on the ground while she held it by its neck chain.
“Guess who’s here?! The devil In Black” Hannah said with a smile on her face and Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
“What’s wrong? Even your hair looks mad. I’m sure you forgot to take good care of your hair before you came here” Hannah said and Elizabeth frowned.
Hannah smiled as she stared at the little puppy.
“And who is this, he’s adorable, too bad the owner is an old woman who doesn’t know her place and a killer. What’s his name?” Hannah asked as she bent and touched the cute white puppy.
“Hannah or you can call him Cinderella” Elizabeth paused and then gasped.
“Oh my God, Hannah. I didn’t realize such a coincidence until I said it out loud” Elizabeth said as she carried the puppy from the ground.
“No, I understand. It’s a sweet name for a male Dog..” Hannah said and Elizabeth smiled.
“Sometimes a name just roared out of your mouth and you can’t help it.
Damn, the dog is garbage, a whore who is out here to steal money but I got it handled…
Stinking stupid dog, ain’t you Hannah?
Oh yes, you are, very soon you’re gonna be out of our lives, poor little stinky Hannah, I will make sure of that ” Elizabeth said as she petted the dog, giving Hannah a side-eye.
Hannah shook her head and walked away, she wasn’t in the mood to put on a fight with her.
Immediately Hannah walked away, Elizabeth quickly dropped the dog and brought out a mirror from her bag to look at her and truly it was scattered.
She hissed and brought out a comb to brush it. She didn’t sleep properly last night.
She had slept in her car as she didn’t have any money to rent a hotel because Brandon had frozen her account.
She quickly hurried to her room to take her bath because she had started to feel stinky.
