According to her uncle, nuel was only going to pay bride price and some other things required in the list but wont be wedding her in church since she has been wedded before but hasn’t divorce unless if he wants to do a court wedding.
A week passed, jake woke up with a severe headache as he said some prayers before going to refresh. He got a call from his uncles that his mother will be buried in a month time and arrangement for the burial is being made so his own financial contribution is needed. He dropped his phone on the bed with forms of tears in his eyes and made an online transfer of three million naira to the account number they gave him from his dad account which he had access to. He was fully dressed and ready to go to work when he received another call from konami specialist hospital that cindy is back to consciousness. With happiness he ran downstairs entered his vehicle and was about to drive out when he remembered that lucky was no more in the gate post, lucky resigned and ran away after the robbery incident. He got down from his SUV and went to open the gate only to see three men outside the gate drawing some signs outside the compound wall.
‘’good morning gentle men, how may I help you??’’
‘’are you the one living here??”’
‘’yes sir this is my fathers house’’
‘’ok I see, we are from the state government’’
‘’ok is there any problem??’’ jake asked gently
‘’take this letter its directly from the state government and you are advised to abide by what is in that letter or report to our office’’ one of them who looked like the boss said giving jake the envelop before they left.
Jake wasn’t understanding what was happening, he opened the white envelop which read
‘’the occupant of this building No 9 madu estate lekki is expected to vacate this building on or before 28th of august 2027 because the land on which the building was erected belongs to the government. In conclusion the buildings will be demolished on the 29th of august and left to the government to carry out their intentions on the land’’
Jake lost balance immediately not knowing what to do. He sat on the floor and started weeping bitterly, everything they had was going gradually. The only thing jake had left was the remaining two million in his dad’s bank account that he had access to, if his dad had any other bank account he doesn’t know about it, his mum’s saloon, and his hospital. His dad house in the village has been taken by emeka, the conclusion of the matter now is that jake and cindy are presently homeless, the worst part was that barrister ben lother who was supposed to help him run this case was asked to have a one month bed rest by his Pakistan doctors..

‘’this problem is beyond you’’ nuel said sobbing
‘’ok just tell pls dear tell me’’
‘’am am am am’’ he stammered bursting into tears while he handed an envelop over to chioma….
Chioma starred at nuel for some seconds before opening the envelop and brought out a white paper..
‘’nuel tell me whats inside the paper, I cant open it’’ chioma said with a confused mind giving it back to nuel’’
‘’[sobbing] I just went to the diagnosis center to collect our test result only to find out that we are both AS in blood genotype which means we are not compactable for each other’’ he said while chioma sat down on the couch with a disappointing face…
