MARK“Are you sure about this?” Vector asked me for the third time in five minutes.“Yes, I am, and Brent has said that it can work,” I responded with the same confidence. “Is there something you are worried about?” I asked him.“Will Alexa go with this new plan?” Vector asked me.I heaved deeply and my shoulders fell.Even before Vector mentioned it, I had been thinking deeply about it. Thankfully. Brent already said that it would work that way, but just as Vector asked, Alexa was the only thing I was worried about.She had been very difficult lately. She was the only one who would make this harder for me and I had no doubt that that was exactly what she would want to do.It was as though Alexa had taken a vow to counter me at every angle.“I will have to convince her,” I eventually answered, but not with the same confidence anymore because a big part of me doubted it.“You couldn’t convince her to start living with you after you both got married,” Vector reminded me.“She had her re

IVYI paced about the cabin like a lunatic because it was almost noon and I hadn’t heard a thing from Lina Barry.Wasn’t she supposed to call me?From the moment she left yesterday, I had kept the new cell phone that Drew gave to me, but not a single beep. All night, I stayed awake, watching and waiting, but nothing.And now, still nothing.“You didn’t take your coffee or eat your food,” Jack said from behind me.I turned and saw that he had walked into the cabin. He left about an hour ago and we didn’t even exchange any words. Lately, Jack and I had had little or nothing to say to each other and we simply left it at that.“I didn’t even realize you made me something,” I said.I glanced at the kitchen counter and that was when I noticed that Jack had actually made me coffee and food, but till this very moment, I hadn’t even noticed it, and that was because food was the last thing on my mind right now.“You didn’t sleep a wink too,” Jack observed.“Were you watching out for me last nig

ALEXA“Mark sent the money without asking any questions,” I told Noelle.I couldn’t deny that I was still surprised at what he did even until the next day. And now that Noelle and I were on our way to have a formal meeting with Tatiana, I just had to talk about it.“I think you forget that Mark Ronaldo is a fucking rich man,” Noelle said, shrugging.“No, it’s not that,” I responded.“Then, it’s what?” She asked me.“He didn’t ask any questions, Noelle. I mean, I could have demanded for such an amount of money to run away from him, but he didn’t. The moment I told him about it, he sent the money to me,” I tried to explain, hoping that Noelle would understand my reaction.“And that is something to be worried or surprised about?” Noelle asked. “Has Mark ever withheld money from you before?” She questioned further.I didn’t need to think deeply before I know what the answer was.“I never liked Mark, but one thing I know about him was that financially, you never lacked. Only that you never

MARKIt had been more than forty-eight hours since Alexa and I last spoke when she told me that we needed to talk. Unfortunately, we hadn’t been able to until this moment when I arrived at her house.“Good heavens, help me to handle this well,” I muttered to myself in exasperation.A part of me feared for the outcome of this. I knew that Alexa would never forgive me for what I was about to tell her, and if it wasn’t for Brent, I would never have mentioned this to her.“Telling her is the only option, Mark. Until you find a solution out of this mess, there is no way Alexa wouldn’t find out, especially with how available you would have to be for Mona. It is best she hears it from you, and if you can, figure out a way on how to handle this situation together,” Brent had insisted.What he didn’t know was that Alexa had consistently given me cold shoulders regarding anything that had to do with Mona and her pregnancy.And that was even worse because it kept me wondering what she would do n

IVYFor two days, Lina Barry and I made plans. She didn’t have any other choice but to go along with what I wanted.It was the only way.All through, Jack refused to meddle in our affairs, which was very reasonable of him. However, it didn’t stop me from thinking about the news Drew had given to us days ago.Mark and Alexa were married...again.“So, after everything my mum and I did to keep them apart, they end up getting married again,” I had muttered to myself bitterly.It didn’t help that I also knew that Alexa was carrying Mark’s baby.Yes, I really shouldn’t be thinking about Mark and Alexa, especially with the situation I found myself in, but I just couldn’t help the pain that crossed my chest every single time. Also, I already knew that getting back with Mark was completely out of the option now.Even if Alexa wasn’t in the picture, Mark would never want me back, not after finding out that I cheated on him with Oscar all through the period of our relationship and that it was th

ALEXA“You are back in business, Alexa!” Noelle couldn’t stop screaming the words in excitement.I still stayed with her because I was too astonished to even think of leaving, and Noelle’s house gave me some sort of peace and comfort that I hadn’t experienced in a really long time.“Not exactly, Noelle,” I responded, trying not to get ahead of myself.In less than two hours, I had already eaten twice. Thankfully, neither Noelle and anyone in her household minded.Her parents were currently out of the country for their first honeymoon of the year. I wasn’t sure that Noelle realized how lucky she was to have parents who were still in love with each other, so much so that they still kept going for honeymoons as though they were only recently wedded.What they had was unreal. I wasn’t sure I would ever get something like that...not with the kind of complicated situation I had gotten myself in with Mark Ronaldo.Unfortunately, he was the only one I had ever loved, and I feared that he was

Vivian’s POV“Today, we have gathered in holy matrimony to join two love birds, whose love could not be altered with the wave of time; Marie and Vale,” the priest started beautifully.I couldn’t stop smiling as I watched Marie and Mr. Vale, dressed to perfection: Marie in a white flowery down and Mr. Vale in black pair suits. Nancy wasn’t present, because she wasn’t invited, which was understandably so, even though they had all resolved things amicably. However, Bonnie, easy to forgive now that her mother had asked her to, was in attendance. Actually, she had flown in some days before, just so that she could have moments with her father too. I noticed that she was nice to me as well, and she even brought gifts for the triplets who would be coming to the world any time soon.Bonnie sat behind Syrus and I, squealing in delight.“This is the most beautiful wedding I have ever attended!” Bonnie whispered happily, but her voice was loud enough for us to hear her.Then Syrus turned to her

Vivian’s POVI sat on the patio just resting and thinking yet again about everything that had happened. This time around, my thoughts weren’t exactly filled with bitterness or anger or sadness. A lot had happened since Diana showed up here and hugged me. She had confessed that she was deeply hurt and begrudged, but after carefully thinking about it, and of course, discussing it with Marie, she had come to the realization that her brother had fooled her for years. While she had struggled and worked hard to achieve everything she had achieved, Leon had chosen to go through the illegal and seemingly wrong path, and she knew that he would have to face the consequences of his actions. Our conversation also brought me to the same resolution with Ted, and the rest of my family.The trial was held about three days ago. I couldn’t attend, because my due date was gradually drawing near, and deep down, I didn’t want to see Ted’s face and break down all over again. The drug lord, his men, along

Vivian’s POVEverything seemed to be happening in such a rush that it was all too much for me to handle. Syrus’s reappearance and his conscious efforts to win back my forgiveness and affection was also overwhelming.He had lived with Mr. Vale and Marie for over a week now, and he had not stopped persisting. Initially, I thought that he would have given up and run back to his company as he always did, but he hadn’t…yet. Syrus kept trying by words and in actions to prove that he was truly sorry, and I maintained the cold shoulders I gave to him, but still, he refused to relent. Syrus had been ordering flowers and notes for me every single day without fail. According to him, he wasn’t trying to buy my love and forgiveness with gifts, because he knew that I wasn’t that kind of woman, but flowers only indicated his genuineness and love for me, which was even why he wasn’t including any other gift. Also, his determination to restore his broken relationship with his father was evident, and

Syrus’s POVSyrus discovered that his father’s house was not as big as the mansion he grew up in, but it was a very homely and cozy bungalow. The moment he entered, he felt more at home and at peace more than he had ever been.“I will show you to your room,” Marie told Syrus as she led him to a room beside the room that Vivian was staying in.When they got into the room, Syrus was impressed at the neatness and warmth of the room.“Thank you, Marie,” Syrus told her deeply.“I am going to make some pasta and we will all eat at the dining table, so use this chance to rest and freshen up,” Marie said politely.She was about leaving when Syrus stopped her. “Do you think she will ever forgive me and talk to me?” Syrus asked.After he had made himself known as the extra traveller, he noticed that Vivian went cold. She had vehemently refused to share a seat with Syrus in the plane even though Mr. Vale had intentionally arranged the ticket in that format. Syrus could not deny that the hostili

Vivian’s POVBelinda and I hurried to the airport, because after all she had told me, I was afraid that Georgia might somehow know that I was in the city, and she would find a way to hurt me. I was heavily pregnant now, and if anything happened, I did not even have the strength to fight or defend myself.“I will come with you and wait for your employers until they get here. If anything were to happen, I don’t want you to ever have to face her alone,” Belinda said firmly when I tried to dissuade her from going with me to the airport.It wasn’t until we got to the airport safely that I became less worried. Also, even though I had wanted Belinda to return to her apartment initially, I was very grateful to have her here with me. We were able to get a safe place to sit and wait where the cops were always watching and patrolling about.“Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria?” Belinda asked when she noticed how weak and tired I was after we sat down.“No, I am fine. I was jus

Syrus’s POVSyrus drove home like a lunatic. He could barely wait to confront his mother for everything he just heard. His entire being was boiling with anger and rage.For years, his mother had lied to both him and Bonnie, and she had made them hate their father unjustly. More so, they had grown up without their father’s love and affection all because of her selfish and greedy desires! His mother was just as cruel and cunning as Georgia; there was literally no difference between them, and now, Syrus understood why she chose Georgia over Vivian. For all Syrus knew, evil always aligned with evil.“Damn, I have been such a fool to let Georgia, my mother, and the company come in between what Vivian and I shared,” Syrus said to himself painfully and regrettably.He wanted exactly what he saw between his father and Marie; love, loyalty, friendship, and companionship, and he did not want to enjoy that only when he was old. He had all that with Vivian, but he had ruined it. To Syrus, he beli
