Dear Talia - The Last Letter - Ep 8 [Final Episode]

Oh Lord, my God, Your humble daughter has come before You this morning. Even while the sinners are still sleeping and snoring away their morning, I am here. Father, remove every evil in the form of a husband or his evil daughter from my path. Give me the power to trample underfoot and leap over their evil schemes against me. Father, you know I'm not a troublemaker, but these people are making me look like one. My good deeds have been twisted into evil. The ungrateful daughter I tried to help has turned against me, and now I am in debt because of her. May the fire of the Holy Ghost begin to burn them in their respective rooms. May their evil schemes against me be consumed by fire along with them. Bararo! Fear! Shanda! Is she still inside? Yes, she is in the sitting room. When you reach the door, just knock. She will come out. But what about the police officers? They are hiding. They will come out once I signal them. That's fine. Just wait here. Once I go in, you can start coming so she doesn't suspect. Okay. But who is this Anita accusing my son of such ridiculous things? I have never heard Charles mention her. I don't know about her either. If it weren't for the fact that Charles is my elder brother, I'd say this is his karma. How could he have been seeing three women at the same time? Is he trying to be a playboy or something? Look, Sandra, I'll call you back later. I need to talk to Charles right now and find out what's going on. Okay, Mom. Madam Rose, for you to come to my house so early, I hope my family and I are safe. May your pretentious mouth twist backward. Wait, do you think I'm a fool? You came into my store and took my fabrics on credit. 1.3 million, Margaret. And for over a week now, you've been playing me for a fool. And now you want to run off with my money? Wait, are you really coming all the way to my house this morning to insult me just because of some ordinary 1.3 million? Are you crazy? When did owing money become a crime? So, Margaret, you're talking back to me now. Wait, are you actually shouting at me while you're the one who owes me money? Yes, I am talking back to you. Enough with the insults. I only owe you. I didn't steal from you. Okay, then. You are under arrest. Anything you say or do will be used against you in a court of law. Desmond! Desmond! Madam Rose, wait! Let's sort this out, please. How could I have been so blind? I never saw the truly heartless person Anita really is. A girl I picked up from the street and turned into a movie star. I was clear with her from the very beginning. I told her I wouldn't marry her if she chose a life as an actress. That I wanted a quiet life. She agreed to it back then. And now? Now I'm the bad one. She's actually out there lying about me. It's even more heartbreaking that people are believing her without waiting to hear from me. In cases like this, it is actually the words of a woman that hold the power. Hello, Charles. Keep your greeting to yourself. What's going on? Why is a woman accusing you of things I can't even boldly mention? Who is this Anita? Mom, please calm down. It's not serious at all. It's just a small misunderstanding between her and me. Actually, she's my girlfriend. We just had a little issue, but it's nothing. Once I'm done here, I'll go over to her house and talk it out with her. So don't worry about me. I'm fine. It's as if you haven't fully grasped the seriousness of what she accused you of. And besides, why are you dating three women at the same time? Are you crazy? Where on earth did you get that stupid character from? Mom, please. Can we not do this now? I'm already under a lot of pressure. Please don't come and add more to it. Just calm down. This will all pass soon. You're a stupid child. Hello? That idiot hung up on me. It better be a minor issue, because I won't sit around and watch my son end up in jail. Are you Mr. Vincent? Yes. You are under arrest, Mr. Vincent. You have the right to remain silent; anything you say or do may be used against you in a court of law. Wait! No, listen! I'm innocent! I didn't do anything! I'm innocent! Since when has owing money become a crime? That you had to drag me all the way from my house to this stupid place? If you think you can mess around with me, you have no idea what's coming for you. I know my human rights, and this right here is a violation of them. I demand that you release me right now and offer an apology. Madam, you'd better shut up and sit down, or I'll lock you up and throw away the key. You want to lock me up because I owe money, right? Tell me, isn't Nigeria in debt as well? Hasn't the government been constantly borrowing from and owing other entities? Who has locked them up that you think you can lock me up? Answer me, you stupid officer! I said, go and sit down and stop shouting. You think I'm joking with you, right? You should have asked about me. You have just committed a federal offense. Officer Peter, lock this woman up in cell 6. Face me like a man. Don't be a coward. So, this house can actually be this peaceful. I hope Madam Rose can detain that witch for at least a year. Since she left, there has been no shouting, no cursing. God, please, may this peace continue to be permanent in my life. Good day, sir. Good day. Please, who are you looking for? I'm here to see Margaret. She owes me 4.5 million naira for catering and decorations. Well, you're late. Your colleague has already arrested her. But just leave your number, and I'll call you as soon as she's released, then you can come and arrest her again. Talia, remember what we've discussed. You need to forgive those who have hurt you, not for their sake, but for your own. You are bleeding internally, you are covered in scars; you must forgive in order to heal. You could even consider bringing your father to a session. I know it won't be easy, but it could help you start building a relationship with him. I don't think I can do this. Everyone I know has hurt me, from my father to my best friend and even my boyfriend. I've been through so much pain, and I just can't let them back into my life again. Talia, you can do this. For your own sake and your mental health, you need to understand that this world is full of both good and bad people. Not everyone is out to hurt you. You can still heal, and you can still find your peace. Thank you, Mrs. Joy. I will be on my way now. Talia, please make sure you show up for our next appointment. Hi Talia, I know that what I'm about to ask or say might make you angry or even hurt our relationship, but I really have to do this. I'm guessing you've already seen the news about Charles' arrest? Yes, I saw the news spreading all over social media, but that is a closed chapter for me. As you already know, your brother and I are no longer together, and whatever mess he has gotten himself into is entirely his own problem to solve. Please, Talia, you're the only one who can save him. His lawyer said the only chance he has is if you testify. You've been with him for three years; you know him better than anyone else. I know Charles can be difficult, but you know as well as I do that he's not an abusive person. Please, Talia, for my sake and for the sake of our mother, I'm begging you, please save Charles. Sandra, please, I value our friendship and I don't want to jeopardize it. But I need you to understand, don't call me, not for anything related to your brother. He is my past, and I want absolutely nothing to do with him. Talia, Charles will rot in jail if you don't help him. I'm begging you on his behalf; you know in your heart that he's innocent. Please don't turn your back on him now. Hello, Talia? Talia, calm down, breathe in, breathe out. Don't let them get to you. Just go home and be with Nova. They aren't worth your anger, and they certainly aren't worth your tears. This guy makes really funny comedies. I can't believe this actually made me smile. Well, I really needed the comic relief. Charles has been arrested. Wait, who is this? He had another girlfriend. What? My father must hear about this. Daddy, can you believe Charles has another girlfriend besides Talia? He has been with this particular woman for five years now, even before dating Talia. Where did you get such information from? It's all over social media. The woman went live and accused him of numerous things, including domestic violence. But I don't believe her. Charles can be many things, but he is not a woman beater. He gets angry easily and raises his voice, but he would never hit anyone. And how can you be so sure that he is innocent? If he had been, he wouldn't have been arrested. Dad, have you forgotten that I lived with him? Even when I did things, he never hit me. Instead, he would say words that would make you cry for days. Even when his wife caused a scene at his estate, he remained nonviolent. I'm sure he's innocent, but thank God I didn't marry him. It would have been shameful. May God vindicate him if he is innocent. Anyway, where is that stupid brother of yours? I saw him leaving with a sack. Wait, you let that idiot leave this house with a sack? Don't you know he must have stolen something? Stand up and go check if anything is missing from the house. Come and buy your premium lace and Ankara. After today, no more. Buy two, get one free. How much for your Ankara? Just 10,000. High-quality target material. Very durable. You can check it. How much is this pink gown? This lace is very expensive, but just bring 50,000. I thought you were talking nonstop like a typewriter. What happened? Are you dumb now? You ugly, fat idiot. I thought you were James Bond. Talk now, or I'll give you the proper home training your mother failed to give you. Let me tell you, where your madness ends, another person's begins. Now say everything I asked you to learn. Make sure you don't miss a single word. You must not open your eyes or lower your hands. Now speak!

Storybuzz has granted no other individual or account permission to publish this series. Keep going, and I'll pull those yellow, rotting teeth right out of your mouth. Please report any page or account posting series owned and created by Storybuzz HQ. Thank you so much for your love and constant support. You're lucky you didn't make a mistake, but you'll keep kneeling until you learn respect. Are you ready to confess, or should I continue dealing with you? Daddy, please wait. I didn't steal anything. It was my dirty clothes that I was carrying in the sack. I went to give them to the laundry man down the road for washing. Or is something missing from the house? You stupid liar! Since when did you become rich enough to have your clothes washed at the laundry? Okay, Papa, wait. I went to sell some of my mother's clothes so I could pay off her debt and get her released. I miss her. If you miss that evil mother of yours, then go to the police station and join her there. I can't have her coming back to disturb my peace. This house has been peaceful for the first time since I married that Jezebel. But wait, where is the money you made from selling her clothes? That's what I'm trying to explain. After selling the clothes, I went to place one or two bets so I could triple the money. But Liverpool ruined my game. So, you sold your mother's clothes to place bets. Well, congratulations. When the witch returns, you will explain to her what happened to her clothes. But for now, I will give you thirty strokes for your insolence and for stressing me out. 30 strokes? Dad, it's too much. Even those who steal in the marketplace aren't flogged that severely. I didn't even steal. I was trying to help my family. Clap for yourself. You have finally become a fool. Sometimes your way of thinking makes me wonder if you hit your head hard on the floor as a child. Because you reason like an idiot. Now, hold the table. If you remove your hand from the table, I will cancel everything and start over. Are you trying to kill me? Yes. Mom, what are you doing here so late? It's far too late for you to be out. Talia, I can't sleep knowing full well that my son is in prison. suffering for something he knows nothing about Talia, you were with him for three years. You know what he's capable of. Charles can be foolish, but he is not capable of what he is being accused of. Mom, I don't like what you're doing. You're trying to put me in a tight spot. I've already told Sandra that I don't want to be dragged into these shenanigans. I have my own reputation to protect. I host my own cooking show. And I don't want anything that would cast my image in a bad light. Please, I don't want to be involved. Please, Talia, save my son. Mom, you don't have to kneel for me. Alright, I'll help him, but please don't kneel. Thank you very much. Nova, I don't know if there's a pandemic out there, But everyone keeps calling me to forgive them. And I've tried, but I don't want to get hurt again. That's why I'll let you decide for me. What do you think I should do? Should I forgive or should I not forgive? So, you're saying that I should forgive? Well, I will listen to you. But who do you think I should call first? My father or Nina? They've been sending me thousands of texts every single minute. Wait, I think I should call my father first. Nova, wait here while I go in and get my phone. Hello, Talia. Hi, Dad. Good evening. I have been receiving your text messages. and I have decided to forgive you, but on one condition. You will join me in therapy. We both need to heal together and perhaps build a relationship. No problem. If that's what you want, I'll do it. I will join you in therapy. And Talia, thank you for forgiving me. I really appreciate it. And I'll make sure you don't regret it. Thank you, my daughter. Thank you. First part completed. Now, let's call Nina. Hello, Talia. Please, before you say anything, I want to offer a sincere apology. Talia, I am very sorry for what I did to you. I know I don't deserve your forgiveness. You were good to me, and I betrayed you. I let envy and jealousy blind me to the good things you did for me. If it makes you happy, I'm already suffering for what I've done. It's fine, Nina. I have forgiven you. But this does not mean that things will return to how they were. I have forgiven you, but I won't forget. Please respect my decision. And try not to force something that has already disappeared. It's none of my business what happens between you and Charles. But I wish both of you the best. Thank you so much, Talia. This means a lot to me. And I promise not to force anything. I know the extent of the damage I caused. and how much I hurt you. Good night, Talia. All done except for Anita. Well, I have something planned for her. She has constantly called me stupid. Tomorrow, we'll see which of us is truly the fool. Nova, calm down. You're being way too happy. Talia, I thought I warned you not to call me. I made it clear on the first day that we are not friends. So why are you still bothering me? Calm down, Anita. I didn't call to fight with you. I saw what you did, and I actually thought about congratulating you. Girl, you're fierce and vengeful. How did you even come up with that perfect script for revenge? Well, I'm not as stupid and senseless as you are. I had to take my revenge. Can you believe it? I am not as foolish and senseless as you. Charles broke up with me after five years. First, he was cheating on me with you. I had no problem with that. Then, he got your useless friend pregnant, And I remained calm. But then, he accused me of being the cause of all his problems. and broke up with me. Well, that was one thing I couldn't tolerate. So I had to lie and frame him. I made sure that in his next life, He would think twice before treating women like trash. Wow, girl, you're bitter. But if he didn't actually touch you, How did you get those bruises? Because of what I saw in your live stream It was definitely not just simple makeup. They looked incredibly real. Well, they are real. I'm an actor, so I knew I had to make it look authentic. It was incredibly painful, but it was worth it. I had my security guard punch me hard. Then, I went live and lied, saying it was Charles. I'm a genius, right? You really have to give me my flowers. After all, you got your revenge too, even if I deserve all the credit You really thought this plan through before carrying it out. I'll give you that. But, Anita, don't you think it's a bit excessive? Besides, he didn't compel you to remain with him. You could have walked away just like I did, But you chose to stay and then blamed him for everything. You're incredibly stupid for saying that. You're being ungrateful after all I've done for you. to help you take your revenge. But I don't blame you. It's desperate women like you Who gives men the room to walk all over us? Consider this the last time you ever call me. Recording saved and forwarded. Now, Anita, let's see who the truly stupid one is. Nova, we did it! Thank you so much, Mom. Don't mention it. Go and thank Talia. She's the one who saved your sorry ass. And listen to me. Make sure you resolve whatever issues you have with women, Especially that Nina girl. I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to frame you next. But just know this. I'm done. I won't go around begging people, let alone kneeling in the mud, to get you out of a jail cell again. Talia helped me? You can see for yourself just how stupid you are. You threw away a diamond. and went in search of cheap metal. I'm sorry, Jason, But please know this is for the best. I don't think it's healthy to keep you on as my videographer You have feelings for me And I just want to keep things strictly professional. It's okay. It hurts, I won't lie, But I respect your decision. If we're going our separate ways professionally, Would you at least be willing to go? On just one date with me? I wish I could. But I'm going back home to see my father. We agreed to spend the weekend together. Okay, I understand. It hurts, but it's okay. I'll get over it soon. How on earth did I get myself Involved with three women? One left me, Another one is carrying my child, and the latter almost sent me to prison for something she herself orchestrated God, how is my life such a mess? Talia has even moved out of our house. and changed her contact information. How on earth can I reach her? She didn't even let me thank her. for saving me from prison. And Nina? I haven't even called her to see how she is doing. I think I have to do right by her At the very least, clear the bill. from the failed traditional wedding ceremony. And from now on, I'll have no business with women. Those creatures are something else. Charles, why is that? I thought you had been arrested by the police. When did you get out? That's not why I called. Your mother told me earlier that she borrowed 10 million naira for the preparations of the traditional wedding ceremony. I ignored her at the time. because I was angry, But now I have decided to pay it back. I will send you the money. to give to your mother plus an additional 2 million for your own upkeep. Really? Why the sudden change of heart? I'm sorry. It's a slip of the tongue. Thank you very much, Charles. You're welcome. This sweep can't wait. I need to inform my father first. Daddy! Dad, guess what? What is it, Nina? I don't have time for guessing games. Dad, Charles just called me. He agreed to pay the 10 million naira. that Mama owes and he even added an extra 2 million for my upkeep. That's fine. but the only problem is that Your mother will be released soon. Charles shouldn't have agreed to pay. I don't want that woman back in this house. Dad, calm down. She is still your wife. Besides, we can't let her rot in jail. It's okay. I know what to do. When Charles sends the money, You can go and pay the people. Your mother owes. Desmond, please. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. Just forgive me this once. Please, I'm sorry. I swear on my late father's grave, If I disrespected you again, Do whatever you want to do to me. Margaret, I'm going inside now. If I come out and find you still here, just know that we're having Your funeral today. Mom, did your father ask me To come back? No, but if you give me 5,000 Naira now, I can convince him to take you back. I don't blame you or your useless father. I'm going back to my father's house. At least my father owns the house. not that haughty people live in. Okay, bring 2,000. You mean Desmond threw you? out of the house Just because you owe people money? Is that guy stupid or something? Who doesn't have debts in this life? Even the federal government owns. Don't worry, You are welcome to stay here. This is your father's house. And as for that idiot, I am waiting for the day He comes to beg you. I don't think he'll come begging. That man is very wicked. I have been enduring for years and yet he had the audacity to kick me out It's fine. You are home now. Even if he doesn't come back, You already have children. Who will take care of you? And I will make sure I sent his bride price back to him. Which children, brother? I am now childless. Desmond has poisoned the minds of my children against me They both hate me. Margaret, don't say that. Just go to the kitchen and get something to eat. My wife cooked. before she left for work. Thank you, sir. So, it's true You came back to this house. Well, if I were you, I would pack my belongings and leave. Because the kind of hell you will experience here will be hotter than real hell. You will pay for everything. what you did to me When your brother first married me. I hope you still remember How you mistreated me Because I will save you triple of what you did back then. I am talking to you And you are eating. Where are you off to? I am going to the mall to get a few things Do you need anything? No, just be home on time. so we can finish the movie We were watching last night. I will. Bye, Dad. Dear Talia, I know this might never reach you and that you changed your number to ensure it remains that way. I understand. But you deserved an apology. and thank you for saving me even when I didn't deserve it. I was a fool. I traded gold for gravel and called it an upgrade. By the time I realized the truth, You were already gone. I don't expect your forgiveness. I know the weight. for the pain I caused you. But hearing that you're doing well now is the only thing that makes me feel like The world is still fair. Live well, Talia. You always deserve better than me. In regret, yours, Charles.
