Chapter 119 (DEPARTED)

Ever since Grandma found out Harry wasn’t her grandson, things started changing. She never felt comfortable in the house, she never stayed in the living room again like before and she started removing her hands from anything relating to the house.

Even when the maids told her they were out of foodstuffs and other things, she sent them to go tell Harry. Days back, she would have been the one to take care of it.

Grandma spent most of her time with the twins especially Naomi as Michael was always with Harry in his room. Or in the living room playing games.

Harry and Michael became so close, they go to places together, eat together and visit Emily together. Harry discovered Grandma was withdrawing from him a week after she found out about him.

He thought she was still shocked about the whole thing not until one day, when Grandma came to his room too weeks and three days after the incident.

He was happy she finally came to his room but the expression on her face made him wondered what was wrong.

“Grandma, are you alright?” he asked her. She smiled and sat on the bed and held his hands. “Harry, you have been so nice to us even though we are not your family.”

“Don’t say that, Grandma. You are my family,” he said looking so confused on why she was saying that suddenly.

“Harry.” She went on. “We don’t want to be a burden on you again, we want you to focus on your life and not us.”

“But you guys aren’t burdening, we’ve been staying this way for a very long time now,” he said worriedly. “I know and we appreciate that,” she smiled.

“Harry, I and the twins has decided to leave the house.” Harry’s heart made a skip. “Why? Please don’t leave,” he pleaded. “We have already decided that and we will be leaving in two days time.”

“But Grandma…” She didn’t allow him finish what he was trying to say. “Harry, nothing will make me change my mind. I love you, I love you because you are like a grandson to me. You’ve been a very good boy for months now. I’m happy to see that you changed from the Mama’s boy Evelyn raised you to be to a responsible man.”

“Grandma.” Tears rolled down his face. She cleaned his tears and kissed his forehead. “You’ll forever be in our hearts.” She stood up and left the room.

“No.” Harry shook his head in tears. He never thought a day would come that everyone he has grew up with would leave his life.

Two days later, Grandma left the house with the twins. Harry cried in his room that day and for the first time ever in his life, he became so scared of the house.

The only people that didn’t leave was the maids and his Assistant. Michael has pleaded with his Grandma to let him stay with Harry but she declined. And her reason was, people would say they are being greedy.

Michael kept in touch with Harry through phone, that was when Harry found out they weren’t in that country again.

He felt like his world was coming to an end if not for Emily that has stood beside him all those time.

A week after they left, Harry sold his house. That house was too big for only him and he wanted to erase all the memories the house always reminded him of.

He bought a new house, it was a big house but not as big as the old one. The new one has a living room, two rooms and a kitchen downstairs, a dining room, and three rooms upstairs.

There was also a garden but it was not as big as the one in his old house. This one wasn’t filled with flowers, it was filled with different fruits.

The maids, only one followed him to the new house. The one that had a crush on him got married few days before he moved out. But the remaining one brought her sister to stay with her.

Among the two rooms downstairs, the maids took the first one opposite the kitchen while the one under the stairs was converted in to a study room.

Harry felt a little happy when he moved in to his new home. The only thing that remained for him was to bring Emily to the house.

But Aunt Gloria and Emily’s step mum wouldn’t allow her go stay with him like before. Because they weren’t married yet.

One day while at home, Emily got a text message from Harry telling her to help him fast. He said he was in trouble at the company.

Emily left the house quickly with Tina and Hannah. They went to the company but found no one. The front of the company was sealed preventing anyone from entering.

With tears in her eyes, she called him but he didn’t answer. Emily made an attempt, she tore the seals in tears and made her way inside the company.

She was so scared that something has happened to Harry because everywhere was in a mess outside the company.

But as she entered the reception, she saw people lying face down. She searched for Harry and he was lying in the middle of the reception. There was blood running down from his neck.

“Harry.” She knelt beside him. “Harry!” she screamed. “No, no you can’t do this to me!” She started crying out loud.

“Not now please. Please stand up.” She Wailed. “Harry! Please!” Emily screamed. Tina and Hannah were shocked, they held on to each other in fright looking at the body’s on the floor.

“I love you Harry, you can’t do this to me.”
