The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 75

"She is gorgeous," my mother said, admiring Tamia.

"How is he treating you, dear?" She asked Tamia offering us a seat. Tamia sat and smiled.

"I am happy," She said, and my mother smiled.

"From your smiles, I can see you are happy," My mother said and took her hand to admire the ring.

"The shade of your eyes," My mother said, looking at Tamia.

"Who would have thought you were a romantic, Sylvester?" She said, looking at me, and I smiled.

"So this is it?" She finally said, and I nodded.

"I hope babies are in the plan," She asked, and I nodded.

"So you two will wed on the blue moon according to tradition?" She asked. I nodded, and she beamed.

"Great, Tamia and I have three months to get to know each other and plan the wedding. I want it to be grand," My mother said, and there was no way I would be bringing Tamia to Lucland often.

"Mother, I can't come here all the time with Tamia," I said, and her smile faded.

My mother wanted to tell me something, trying to find the right words.

"You see, son, since the incident with Jenny, I felt the essence of coming to live here had been defeated. If they could attack me here, then I am no longer safe here," She said, and I frowned at her, wondering where she was heading with this.

"I thought about it after I was discharged from the hospital this morning, and I have decided I will be moving back to the Estate," She said, and I did not know how to feel about it.

I love my breakfast with my friends, who were also my officers. I loved my life there.

Having my mother move back there would change a lot of things.

I will have to eat with her and spend more time with her.

She would want to get involved with running the place, and I would not like it. It was just better this way.

"Mother, I do not think it is wise. Let me increase the security here," I said, trying to convince her not to come and stay in the estate.

'No, Sylvester, my mind is made up on this. You may be a lord, but I am still your mother. Your brother and I are moving back in," She said, and I exclaimed.

"You can't bring Dominic to the estate, mother. You know we do not see eye to eye on many things. I need to be focused. He will be a serious negative distraction for me," I complained, and she shook her head.

"It is just the two of you. Please, Sylvester. I have spoken to him about it, and he is willing to try. The both of you have to try to get along. He is your only family, other than me, of course," She said, and I shook my head.

"Tamia and our children are my family," I said, and she nodded.

"Of course, Sylvester, I am not disputing that, but please, you must try to make it work with Dominic. It breaks my heart to see you two fight and hate each other. Please," She said, holding my hand, and I looked at Tamia. Her face bore no expression. she could not say yes or no even though she hated Dominic.

"I have rules, mother. He should not speak to or disrespect Tamia in any way. He isn't allowed to get involved with running the place. He cannot attend my meetings. I do not want to know he is there," I said, and she shook her head.

"I can understand all that except the last one. We will have some time together when we can, and he can be relaxed there, too; after all, the estate belongs to our family. Try, Sylvester," She said, and I knew if I said no, it would break her heart. I would just have to see how it goes. Living with Dominic would be very difficult, especially now that he is going steady with Glenda.
