Chapter 2 Lost her

Just like they say a woman's intuition is always right, Bernice didn't see the need to tell her husband about the bad feeling she has towards his assistant until it was too late.

One beautiful Saturday afternoon, Henry always works from home with his assistant in his study because he doesn't want to spend the whole time in the office, he would rather have his family around him to make him smile.

Like every other Saturdays he was working in his study while oma was practicing her ballet dance with her teacher, Bernice went up to the study to check on them after which she turned to leave unknown to her that will be the last time she will set her eyes on her handsome husband and beautiful daughter again.

"hey baby do you need anything" Bernice asked opening the door a little

"just coffe will be fine honey" Henry said as he smiled gently at her

Gwen saw the exchange and glances of love between them both and she just couldn't hold it in any longer and so she decided that she must have to deal with the witch today.

Thinking about it she walked to the door after Bernice left with the excuse of using the bathroom downstairs, she spotted Bernice at the top of the staircase checking her phone and she smiled evily as she stared at the stairs and back at the woman standing before her, a rush of adrenaline rushed through her veins as she thought about her fate should she fall down from the stairs now and so she crept through the back and pushed her down the stairs.

She watched as she screamed and hit her head on the stairs one after the other before falling down the last on and blood flowed out her nose and mouth with her eyes wide open staring at her, she felt a chill run down her spine as she stared at her eyes but regained her senses when Henry came and shouted her name loudly before rushing towards her like a mad man

Berrrrrnnniiiicceeeee!!!!!!!

Gwen came down pretending to be shocked, " call the ambulance sir" she shouted with tears in her eyes

Henry stood up to get his phone from the study room and Gwen took that opportunity to whisper in Bernice ears " you had it coming for a long time bitch, go to hell and burn to ashes" she said with so much hate

Bernice was so weak to react to her talk but she looked at the face of her murderer and tears fell from her eyes, maybe she just realized that she was right about her all along, at her dying minute she only hoped that her daughter and husband will be fine.

The whole villa was in chaos, the ambulance came and rushed her to the hospital, oma was escorted to the hospital by her bodyguard and she stayed with her father at the emergency waiting room looking up to the red light hoping that it is shut off and the doctor comes with a good news.

She was just ten years old and she understood the situation of things to some an extent and she just hoped that her mother will be fine but alas...

The doctor came out with a solemn look and looked at the father and daughter duo and shake his head sadly, " am sorry Mr Miller but we lost her, by the time she got here she have lost a lot of blood and she was already bleeding internally but we tried all we could but couldn't save her, am really sorry for your loss sir".

Henry felt as If he couldn't breath anymore, he fell down on the floor and cried like a baby holding his daughter in his arms as they cried sadly. A Saturday that started as a sunny and happy day ended up being a black Saturday for the father and daughter.

The doctor left the room to give them some privacy and of course Gwen was standing outside watching them both through the glass door, for a minute she felt guilty for what she has done but thinking of the wealth she was going to get and also having the man she have always desired she felt that it was worth it but was it really worth it???
