HE CALLED ME A CHEAT Episode 14 – Olowojesiku Deborah

Semi final 🤔

The trial of my stepmother was really a tough one as her sons got one of the best lawyers for her and those she knew in the forces tried all they could to get her out of the net of the police but John’s connection was stronger.

After going to court for several days, she was finally sentenced to twenty-five years imprisonment with hard labor. Even after receiving her judgment, she came to where I was and said the battle still continues.

John told me to take her words with levity as there was nothing a jailed woman could do. I calmed myself with John’s words and decided to stop dwelling in the past to concentrate on my family.

Few weeks after the court hearing, I was preparing to go to bed when John told me we needed to talk.

‘Hope all is well?’ I asked instinctively

‘It’s about Jeddy, don’t you think he needs to meet his real family and we need to have our son back?’

‘Ohh John, I can’t bear to lose Jeddy. I nurse him from infancy and there is a strong bond between us. How do you expect us to cope? I can’t lose my son o’

‘Jane, you need to understand that his real parent has to be aware of the situation on the ground. We can’t continue to keep him with us when we already know the truth of the matter’

‘How do you now expect me to live without my Jeddy?’

‘Calm down dear, let’s just take it one step at a time. When we get to that bridge, we will cross it together. Meanwhile, I have made enquires and the Da Silva family is a powerful family. Fortunately, Mr. Kings, my business partner happen to be their acquaintance’ he further explained

‘So, what is the next step now?’ I asked sadly

‘I have spoken to Mr. Kings and he promised to book an appointment for me to see them, all I just need is to give him the date and time when I will be chanced’

‘And??’

‘I want us all to go, we would go with the evidence the Midwife gave us’

‘Choose a convenient date and inform me’

‘Alright, I will’

John chose a date which happens to be a Saturday. It was like I was going for a burial ceremony as I wore a gloomy face all through. Getting to Da Silva’s residence, I was awed by the beauty of their mansion.

We were ushered in by a man dressed in a suit was told to sit and wait for madam and her husband. After what seemed like an eternity, the couple came down to meet us with their son who was just the carbon copy of Jeremiah. Every one of us was stunned as the resemblance was just much. On the other hand, Jedidiah looks so much like the man.

‘Mommy, why did this boy looks so much like me?’ Da Silva’s son named Leonard asked his mother

Episode 15

We explained the purpose of our visit and presented them with the evidence with us. After going through the evidence, the man named Felix was stunned. The wife by the name Kayla was angry and she didn’t bother to hide it.

‘So, are you now trying to tell us that you are here to take our son away from us? Kayla asked angrily

‘Not that madam, we just want you to know the situation of things. It won’t be proper that we know the truth of the matter and keep quiet. Have you checked coolvalstories today?? Even my wife doesn’t want to part ways with Jedidiah’ John explained to her

‘You see, my wife and I discovered that we were both AS but we ignore every warning and went ahead and got married to each other as we were so much in love with each other. While my wife was pregnant, we got to know that the baby has an SS genotype and has asthma because I am an asthmatic patient.

When the baby was born, we were surprised to know that he has an AA genotype and has no trace of asthma in him. The doctor said maybe a miracle took place not knowing that our baby was switched. Well, this is a delicate matter and we need to act with wisdom so that the children involved won’t be in trauma Felix explained with wisdom

Just like Felix advised, we went home and thought of what to do. Two months later, the Da Silva requested their son after which a DNA test confirmed that Jedidiah was theirs and Leonard ours.

Parting ways with Jedidiah was not easy as he was my favorite child though I didn’t show it. We were all in tears the day Jedidiah was taken away and Leonard was brought to us. To make matter worse, Leonard refused to cooperate with us as he was pampered.

Two weeks later, I received a call from Kayla that Jedidiah was battling with for his life. I didn’t think twice before going to the hospital where he was admitted. Getting to the private ward he was, it hurt me a lot to see him living on oxygen.

I went closer to him and wrap my hand around him. Immediately my hand touches his body, he became calm. Kayla was weeping as she was explaining to me that for the two weeks he spent with them, he refused to eat or drink. He even refused to speak to them and the only thing he did was to request for his mommy, daddy, Jeremiah, and Joy.

I was touched, it was obvious that Kayla was a rich kid who hasn’t gone through the hurdles of life. I calmed her down and explained to her that he would come around and when he does, she would love him as he is a sweet boy.

Jedidiah came out of the coma the following day, he was so excited to see me. He pleaded with me to take him with me but I explained to him that he can’t be with me because I wasn’t his biological mother. I made him promise me to be good to his new parent and even take care of them which he affirmed to

Jedidiah warms up to his new family but he was always calling to speak with me. Though he wasn’t mine, I was always praying for him. Later on, Da Silva relocated to the US with Jedidiah. I wept bitterly when I got the news.

Loving Leonard was not easy at first because he was over pampered and saucy, there is nothing he ever appreciates rather, he was always comparing us with his former family. There was a day I had to slap his face. Well, I left him for John to handle and with time, his character was better.
