When A Man Wants - Episode 18
Laying The Blocks
ANIKA
“Please love, he is too very young, I don’t think it’s appropriate for him to start taking an art class right now.”
“But we have discussed this...why are you still bringing this up?”
I sighed and kept quiet. Then I bent down to embrace my son.
“No problem mum, I think I will like it.” Freddie said, kissing me on the cheek and entering into the vehicle.
Tommy got into the backseat of his car . I knew this was useless, but I would not allow him to take my son’s childhood from him…
He is still very young, why would he spend his childhood learning art when he should be making friends and adjust to this new environment…
I waved at Freddie as the car drove out of sight.
It would be a boring day for me without my son….I just knew that.
Slowly, I walked back into the mansion and I started climbing the stairs that led to the entrance, a car drove in and I turned around.
I recognized the lady immediately…
“Hello, Mrs. Lyon.” She greeted, advancing towards me.
“Hi Lisa. Wow! This is a surprise

. I hope all is well. “
She shrugged and stopped right in front of me. ‘Sure, all is well. “
“How..how is Vincent? I am so sorry about the last time…I didn’t know my husband will react like that….”
“Hmm..mmm. That is forgotten. Vincent is so sweet. He doesn’t hold grudges.”
“Thank you. Would you like to come in?”
“Urm…no. I just came to drop these.”
She dipped her hand in her bag and came up with the two pictures that I have been looking for.
“Why did you take them?” I asked suspiciously, collecting them from her.
“Oh! Excuse me. I am not a thief okay. I don’t know how they ended up in my bag. Must be a mistake or something. Anyways, I realized and I brought them back….”
I wasn’t buying that but there was no possible reason why she could have take them….
“So, how is Freddie?”
Ok>.what is this? She doesn’t even like us, why asking?
“He just left with Tomyy. Why?”
“Nothing. Just hoped I would see him here.”
“ He’s started an art class at the Lyon’s gallery so he’s gone there?”
“An art what? That’s insane…he’s just six.”
I swallowed but I kept mute. It was none of her business even though she was right.
“Well, Vincent wanted me to check on him. He is afraid of coming over because of your scary husband.”
We both were now quiet. I just wanted her to leave…we were no friends….
“Anyways. I will tell Vince the boy is fine…so….”
“Ho w is Vincent?” I quickly asked.
She smiled and shrugged. “He’s just fine…..and safe. “
She emphasized on the last word but I gave no reaction.
“Please, is there a way I can see him to apologise for the last time. Somewhere away from here?”
She smiled. I knew it was stupid but I just wanted to see this man again for no good reason.
“Well, that is if your husband doesn’t know about it.

. I really care about Vincent a lot. You know?”
I nodded. “I understand.”
“On a condition that little Freddie comes with you.”
“Ofcourse. “ I replied without thinking.
“Good then.” She said, bringing out a card and placing it in my hand.”This weekend is fine. Call me when you are ready to come so we can prepare for your arrival.”
“okay, thank you.”
“Alright . Mrs. Lyon….” Then she stopped. “ Would you mind terribly if I start calling you Anika?”
I faked a smile and shook my head. “No by all means.”
“Alright then Anika, Do Take care.”
I watched her walked back to her car and drove off.
I shook my head. Something was so off about this lady but I wouldn’t let it bother me or ….should it?

NARRATOR”S POV
She was driving with one hand and holding the phone with the other hand.
“Hello Shrek….yea….I will get the DNA sample this weekend…no, the DNA will come to me actually….” She giggled. “Yea, it’s perfect like that.”

I can't wait for Vincent to gain he's memory bk.nd am sure Lyon knew Freddie was Anikha husband .she killed her husband nd he took hes wife
I'm sure there's CCTV everywhere. Hey ladies be careful and very cautious. Don't say I didn't warn you ooo cause Lyon is out to devour. Meanwhile, he is preparing little Freddie for future use to supply him art works at least that way, his killing will reduce. Lol
@Benedicta, sorry, Its parry something, owambe proper, had to just post something
Wow this is getting interesting hope it works out as planned before Tommy comes up with his own plan and disrupts it.
I really hope Vincent will not die again or probably go for another plastic surgery. Tobi, please don't let him die okay? Ever!
Lol@Teniola. Anyways, I hope he recovers his memory before long, that way he will be at an advantage cos he will know his enemy before hand and arm himself properly to withstand any circumstances for the sake of his child and the love of his life aka Anika
lool..Yes ma@Teni, n

@Tobi... This is good. Vincent and Anika should tread with caution o... Next episode please
[email protected] vex. sometimes there is no enough foodstuff in the store..*winks
Anika shouldn't cause Vincent more harm o
I suspect Mr. Lyon really knew who Anika's ex actually was before approaching her. This way he can take advantage of little Freddie's talent being the dad.
