Mr. President’s

Alexander Legend and his wife had a wedding anniversary and also renewed their vows. Their marriage has been rekindled and their love grew stronger. Sarah wasn’t able to have a child of her own but she was happy because she was going to have a grandchild.

Griffin and Angie got married three months after Nathan and Mercedes did. Penelope stayed in the marriage with Mr Hayes, vowing to be a good wife and enduring her thirty seconds with a grateful heart

Lanre and Clarisse went to visit Luke in prison after they got married two months after Nathan and Mercedes did. Luke was exasperated. He seemed to be the type of man who only saw value in something, only after he lost it. Clarrise seemed to be blooming, which could only be auributed to her peaceful and loving marriage.

Luke was in his orange prison uniform, bringing out of him a bumbling look in contrast to his usual arrogant self. He sat opposite Lanre and Clarisse in the inmates‘ visitors room. “I see you married my ex–wife, he scoffed, trying hard to hide the envy, recalling the old times when Clarisse was always at his beck and call, doing what he loved.

Lanre smiled proudly, tightening his grip around Clarisse hand. “Yes, and I’m very happy.”

Luke didn’t want to admit it but the words left his mouth before he could hold it back. “I must say that you both deserve each other. He knew he didn’t deserve a woman like Clarisse, and neither did he deserve Angie

“Luke. I’m just here to tell you that I hold nothing against you,” Clarisse said. This was what she wanted. For justice to be served but now he was too miserable, she was moved with sympathy.

Luke let out a bitter laugh after taking another look at them. He loved Clarisse before but greed led him to partner with Betty, turning him into the monster he became. He didn’t even want to have a child for fear of being stuck with Clarisse. Now he wished he hadn’t caused those miscarriages. There would have been hope and something to bind them together. “Thank you, Clarisse, I wish you all the best” He didn’t hide the pain in his voice. He still had thirty long years to serve,

in the beginning but

Jane was sentenced to 25 years in prison and her mother, 43. Mercedes went to visit Jane from time to time. Jane was cold in warmed up with time. Together with Nathan, Mercedes visited their godson once every month

Five years later

Oliver graduated with his master’s degree, thanks to Nathan’s encouragement and moulding. Over the years, he has spent all his vacations in either Legend Incorporated or NL Towers. During the master’s program, he worked alongside schooling,

Nathan had been like a father, guiding and teaching him but the fact was, Oliver was determined He was the smartest kid in school but had no time for romantic relationships. His reason was simple. He wants to marry the first woman he dates to be like Nathan, therefore taking all his advice. but work first, pleasure later.

In a nutshell, Oliver was junior Nathan. The only difference between them was their physical appearance. Their mannerism and style of doing things were almost the same. He had just one best friend. Andrew, who was business–minded like him. He hasn’t been rude but never gotten close to women. He preferred to learn from Mercedes and Nathan’s experiences of having best friends of the opposite sex.

Today, Nathans had a surprise for him. They were speaking over the phone. “You don’t have to return. Check your email and call me back, Nathan casually said. It wasn’t up to two minutes when Oliver returned his call.

“You are making me the President of NL Towers?” Oliver’s deep voice sounded from the end of the line. He expected to be one of the never the president so he couldn’t believe it.

managers but

“No, I’m just rewarding your hard work. You passed the application process and turned heads during the interview. No one deserves it better.” Nathan said, recalling his hard work through the process. There were thousands of applicants and Nathan never interfered in the process.

He was equally amazed when the HR manager sent details of the chosen applicant to him. He only took it upon himself to break the good news. Thank you, Nathan, you won’t

“I’ve ne

never regrested meeting you, Oliver. You’ve been exceptional,” Nathan said and ended the call.

Perhaps, just like his sister, they got their work ethics from their father. Some people had it smooth in life because others made the sacrifice for them. Mercedes had made all the sacrifices there were. Oliver’s skills wouldn’t have been so sharp without Nathan’s help.

Once a year during Christmas, Nathan’s mansion hosted the whole family. Griffin and Angle with their two kids, Laure and Clarrise with their son, Oliver and Andrew, Alexander and Sarah, and of course, Mercedes mum and their godson, Timmy. After their annual Christmas party. Nathan took his family to their beach house in California, which was Mercedes favourite among all mostly when the kids were on vacation

Mercedes relaxed on the beach bed while she watched Nathan playing with their kids. Yes, she got her dream but it wasn’t rasy. Rosie was four, a female version of Nailan. Benedict was three, Nathan’s look alike, Roger was two, a male version of Mercedes Sandy was one, well some

looked like Mercedes because she had her hair but others said Nathan because she had his eyes. No one was certain yet.

Mercedes was in the maternity ward once every year, giving herself five years to complete childbearing. The youngest, Ken, was only y two weeks old. therefore, she still had some pregnancy fat to lose.

However, Nathan insisted that she was still the sexiest woman in the world. When she stares at her sagging stomach and breast in the mirror, the felt he was mocking her but Nathan was serious. He treasured every stretch mark on her body, every weight she gained and every mood swing. He understood that these were the sacrifices she made over five years to bring their kids into the world. Nathan got a male assistant but Mercedes still. supported every way she could from home. In exactly one year, she would resume work as the Vice President of Legend incorporated

“Mum, join us.” Rosie yelled.” Nathan stared at Mercedes profoundly. She was enjoying her needed rest and wouldn’t want to be disturbed. He thought she was sleeping when in actual fact, she was watching them through her sunglasses.

“Tm I so invisible that you want her?” Nathan tickled the little girl, who was saved by her siblings engaging in water fights with their dad.

“No, it’s because you are cheating” she said through giggles, lifting herself from the sand and taking to her heels. Nathan saw through her tricks and began to run after her.

“Hey, come back here. How did I cheat?” He kept yelling with the others chasing after them.

Mercedes couldn’t hold her pretence anymore and began to laugh out loud. Seeing they had seen through her trick, the covered her mouth with her hand to muffle the sounds of her laughter. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

From the beach, Nathan had finally got some quiet moments with his wife in the confines of their bedroom. They hadn’t done it since Mercedes had her last child and he couldn’t wait anymore.

“You can’t be tired tonight, Nathan said seductively, as he slid under the blanket,

“Who said I was, Mercedes responded flirtatiously. She missed him too. She climbed on top of him, covering his nipple with her moist mouth, a moan escaping Nathan when the door pushed open. Mercedes quickly rolled off Nathan to her side, hiding under the blanket when a soft voice sounded from the doorway,

“Dad, can you read me a bedtime story!” It was Benedict. Mercedes pressed her lips in amusement. They were used to it but Nathan was so turned on, he didn’t want to pause.

“Grandma Sarah will do that for you,” he tried to coax him but the little man was adamant,

“No, I want you!” He insisted.

“How about Grandpa?” Alexander came with Sarah this time and Mercedes‘ mum was busy taking care of Ken. They never brought nannies or maids during the vacation. It was a time for family bonding.

“No! Benedict insisted. “I want you to read it to me.

By the time Nathan returned, Mercedes was fast asleep. Well, by the time she woke up, they were in the house Nathan bought for her mum. “What are we doing here and where are the kids! Mercedes wasn’t surprised he sneaked her out of the beach house when she was sleeping.

“In the beach house with their grandmas and grandpa, he sounded casual,

It was so

“But,” Mercedes was worried that it would be to

too much for the senior citizens to handle the five children all alone but Nathan had other reasons.

“Don’t you think we need time to ourselves?” He reminded her. A man had needs that only his wife could satisfy. Mercedes understood that responsibility quite well.

“So how long are we going to stay!”

Just three days

“What I’m breastfeeding”

“Don’t worry. Ken is in the next room with Kayla Kayla was their nanny. Nathan had to fly her over so that he and his wife could have some alone time. Mercedes could applaud Nathan for always thinking ahead.

“You got everything under control. I love you” she said and wrapped her arms around him

Tove you

trist but why don’t we continue from where we started last night Nathan reminded her

“Voli are so mangley, Mercedes piled his nose and sand.

“And that’s why you love me,” Nathan said, as he began to undress her. “Perhaps, we can produce child number 6, my treat.” Mercedes froze instantly, Nathan smirked, kissing her deeper. He was just pulling her legs.
