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

MARKI waited for Alexa at the parking lot and wondered what was keeping her for so long.“Should I leave?” The cop asked me when he saw that I was waiting.He was asking because he thought that I would drive Alexa back to the house, which was something I would like to do, but knowing how Alexa could be and how she acted the entire time in that room, I didn’t want to take chances.Alexa might decide to hop on a cab just because she was upset and didn’t want me anywhere around her if she came out and saw that I had dismissed the cop with her car.“Just stay where you are,” I told him.And then I continued waiting.What was Alexa talking to Claudia about? Was it something about the baby? Was she okay?I didn’t like that I was this worried but couldn’t ask Alexa how she was feeling; she wouldn’t even give me a response.The sticker containing our assignment was with Alexa and I wondered if she would let us carry it out together.I sighed with relief when Alexa eventually came out, but he

ALEXAThe session lasted for two hours and it was way refreshing than I would ever have imagined. Claudia ran us through the first stage of first-time and early parenting and what we were to expect.It was nothing like I had ever experienced before and I couldn’t be more grateful to the doctor for getting us here. At some point, it became less of an acting as her words caught my attention.“We didn’t think we would be able to do this thing called parenting,” Arielle said, admitting her fears.But what she didn’t know was that I also had that fear. However, Claudia had been able to take away half of that fear on the first day.“It’s usually like that. Not to worry, before you have your baby, you will be more than ready,” Claudia said. “However, I have an assignment for all of you before the next class, which will be next week,” she added, glancing at us.I shifted uncomfortably in my seat.Again, I was reminded that only Mark and I were unmarried in this class, and not just that, we di

ALEXAI didn’t wait for Mark to agree to my terms and conditions. The moment I was done talking, I walked past him into the class.And I stopped.The air that greeted me was nothing short of warm and welcoming, and I could see some parents already seated and waiting. The teacher, an older woman who seemed to be in her mid fifties, sat in front of them.And it just felt like I was in the wrong room because the room was too peaceful and warm for me, whose life was filled with chaos, bitterness, and betrayal. I didn’t even realize that Mark had followed me and was standing beside me.“Alexa and Mark, right?” The teacher asked with the most friendly smile I had ever seen.“Yes, we are,” Mark answered on my behalf again.I swallowed hard.Gosh, I wanted to run away because this was too peaceful for me, and it wasn’t something I was used to any longer. For years now, my life had been filled with nothing but drama and chaos, and they all seemed very welcoming.“You are the last of the parent

ALEXAI already knew that getting Mark to leave was pointless.“Miss Alexa, is everything okay?”“Ma’am, are you alright?”“Hey, you have been crying. Are you unwell?”Those were questions I got from random strangers who seemed like they cared and nurses at the hospital, and almost immediately, I wished that I hadn’t stubbornly come into the hospital like this.Even though I couldn’t see myself right now, I knew that I looked like a mess and the tears that soiled my eyes and cheeks didn’t make it any better. I thought I was going to disappear!When I caught a little child being scared of my appearance, I almost wanted to turn around and run out of the hospital.“What’s wrong?”“Do you feel sick?”“Is it the baby?”“Did you even get some sleep last night?”More questions poured in, and before I knew it, I was almost getting surrounded by people who acted as though they cared. While most of them might care, I also knew that some of them were just looking for gossip.In Paris, news and g

MARKWaiting for Alexa at the hospital was the only way I could think to see her, and also, I wanted to make it for our first parental class. Nothing in the world would have made me miss it, not even Alexa’s rage. I had wanted to go over to her house this morning, but I knew that she would still be enraged and would not want me to come with her to the hospital.I passed the night at a hotel anyway.However, nothing prepared me for the sight of Alexa. She was in total wreck!“Alexa, what’s wrong?” I asked her even though I knew what could be the problem.She looked completely messed up and broken.Her shirt was stained with tears and her eyes held the deepest pain I had ever seen. My own heart shattered just seeing her like that.“What are you doing here?” Alexa asked me instead of answering my question.“For our parental class,” I answered.Alexa scoffed angrily.“You must be dreaming if you think I am going to let you anywhere near me or my baby,” Alexa swore under her breath.“Can

ALEXALast night was the toughest nights I had had in a really long time. I couldn’t stop tossing and turning because I couldn’t stop thinking about Mark and Noelle kissing each other.And then I cried.By morning, my pillows were soaked in bitter and painful tears.The two people in my life I had allowed into my heart had betrayed me in ways that I would never be able to forget.Noelle Vasquez and Mark Ronaldo.All this time...and they both knew, and they kept it from me and pretended as though they were loyal to me.So Noelle was also one of the women that Mark had had something to do with.The pain was just too much.I woke up with a heavy ache in my chest. My eyes were hurting and swollen and I couldn’t stare at myself in the mirror.“Good morning, Miss Alexa,” Lora greeted me as soon as I trudged down the stairs, dressed like a lady in distress.I knew I looked like a mess, so I wasn’t surprised when Lora was stunned at my appearance.“Ma’am, are you okay?” She asked me even befo
