220 Rage And Jealousy
Eyes blinded by rage and mind poisoned with jealousy, Leon quickly activated his tracking device and instantly got Ella’s location.
Ella’s beeping phone location showed that she was stationary.
When he tracked Ivory’s device, it showed that she was mobile and was even coming in the direction of the house.
So he quickly placed a call across to Ivory, while he set out in search of Ella.
“Give me the name of the man that has my wife!” Leon boomed in a frightening chilly tone when Ivory received the call.
“Geez! Leon, I am on my way home! I’m going to explain...”
“Name, Ivory! Give me a goddamn name!” Leon yelled into the speaker causing Ivory to end the call out of fright.

At Ivory’s end, she quickly told Justin to hit the car brakes and let her out.
.....
“What’s wrong, dear? Who called?” Justin queried in an anxious tone. He was terrified by the swift change in Ivory’s face; which had suddenly turned white as a sheet as if she just saw a ghost.
“Justin, there is trouble! I want...” Ivory didn’t get to complete her statement when Justin interrupted her.
“Calm down, Ivory! Whatever the problem is, we can work it out together!” Justin spoke in a calm and soothing tone.
“Justin, listen!” Ivory snapped at him angrily. “There is no time to be calm. My brother is going to kill you if he gets to you, first.”
“What! What did I do wrong?” Justin’s eyes widened in alarm.
“I don’t know but someone must have fed him the wrong information about us helping Ella. He thinks you messing around with his wife and he doesn’t joke with her.”
“Shit!” This is bad!”
“Exactly my thought!” Ivory sighed. “What I want you to do for me now is, get out of the car, run to a safe place, and hide there. I’ll quickly drive back to the mansion and alert your family before my brother gets to them first. He doesn’t know your name yet, so for now, you’re safe.”
“But...”
Justin didn’t get a chance to finish his statement when Ivory jumped out of the car and forced him out of the driver’s seat. Then she climb in and gave him one last glance.
“Hide my love! Whatever you do, don’t come back home until I text you that it’s safe. My brother is in a terrible mood and when in this mood, he could unleash mayhem. He could even be at your house as we speaking now. Your family life depends on me going back.”
Without waiting for Justin to respond, Ivory put the car in reverse and swerved it like a professional car racer. Then she sped up spewing sand and dust into the air.

Some few hours Earlier.
When Justin’s car made a U-turn into the driveway of a luxurious white mansion, Ella was overwhelmed by the magnificent beauty that stood before her.
The massive white and golden gate was well crafted with sensory beauty and the mansion was designed with engineering wonder.
The mansion stood out in elegance, sophistication, and massiveness. Its large acre of land held anything and everything you could relate with comfort.
The massive mermaid-crafted water fountain was a beauty to behold. While the sweet fragrance coming from the garden beyond the gigantic house, filled the atmosphere with happiness and peace.
Above all, the magical view of the ocean on any side you turned to was irresistibly captivating.
Ella found herself almost sticking out her head from the car in other to admire the mansion up close.
“You have such a lovely home!” Ella whispered making Justin and Ivory chuckle.
“Thanks!” Justin smiled and brought the car to a halt.
“Who are those standing by the entrance?” Ella asked in astonishment.
“The beautiful woman in the middle is my mum, and the other two ladies are our house staff members,” Justin said proudly. “I proactively informed my mum of your arrival, Ella. I hope you don’t mind?”
“No dear, thanks!”

Mrs. Richmond was over-excited when Justin sent her a brief message informing her that he was bringing Ivory’s pregnant sister-in-law by the name of Ella, over to spend the night.
She quickly made the necessary organization for Ella to feel welcomed, relaxed, and comfortable. She even ordered the chef of the house to make different mouth-watering local cuisine fit for a pregnant woman.
Then she specifically selected one of the coziest and most magical bedrooms in the mansion for Ella. She ensured that the room was put in order before Ella arrived.
To Mrs. Richmond and her family, it seemed as if the heavens had remembered and answered their prayers today.
Firstly, their Gynophobic son brought home for the first time, not just any beautiful girl but the granddaughter of Miatisa. Even though he claimed that they were just friends, who just met, there was already a viral video; which contradicted Justin’s claims.
In the viral video; which Mrs. Richmond saw a few minutes before Justin showed up with Ivory, they were both entangled with each other in a passionate kiss, in the middle of the island flea market.
Mrs. Richmond didn’t have to consult a soothsayer, to tell her that her son has finally found love.
They were even in the mood of celebrating Justin’s new girlfriend when he showed up and claimed that they were just ordinary friends with no strings attached.
“But, one quick question,” Mrs. Richmond asked them mischievously. “How come the both of you are drenched to your skin and my son’s reeks of the sweet fragrance of a feminine perfume?”
“Huh!” Both Justin and Ivory exclaimed at the same time causing Mrs. Richmond to laugh out of her heart.
Afterward, Justin took Ivory to his bedroom; where they locked themselves up for another good three hours before joining the family in a feast downstairs.
Mrs. Richmond and her family enjoyed every moment Ivory spent with them. They saw her as kind, smart, bold, beautiful, and above all a perfect wife for their son.
When Ivory was about to take her leave, Mrs. Richmond almost started crying as she was already missing her even though they had exchanged contact and promised to see each other again.
Hence, when she got the information that Ivory was coming over again and that she was coming with a pregnant woman, Mrs. Richmond’s joy knew no bounds.
She was overexcited at the chance to put her knowledge of nurturing a pregnant woman into action, in her home.
Being a midwife, she knew all the nitty gritty about pregnancy and how to delicately treat a pregnant woman.
Hence, immediately after Ella stepped out of the car, looking stressed and exhausted, Mrs. Richmond signaled for the maidens standing beside her to quickly help Ella to her room and prepare a warm bath and all the necessary ointment for a body massage.
—
“Mum, please meet Ella. She is Ivory brother’s wife. Ella, this is my mum.” Justin did the formal introduction briefly.
“Good evening, Mrs. Richmond, and thanks for having me over.” Ella smiled politely in gratitude.
“You are welcome, my darling.” Mrs. Richmond pulled Ella into her arms and kissed her on both cheeks.
“Mum, I have to take Ivory back home. We need to inform Ella’s husband that she is safely here with us.”
“Ugh! How I wish Ivory can also spend the night here with us. But, it’s fine! You both can go! I will take good care of Ella.”
