A MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: MARRIED TO MY ENEMY Chapter 60
~ MeganHer reply was something I wasn’t expecting to hear in a million years. “What?” I echoed.Janette turned around, her eyes filled with irritation and pride. “Yes, little Megan, I live here now. Charles invited me to stay.”I refused to believe what I was hearing. There was no way Charles invited her to stay with us without informing me first. I knew our relationship wasn’t what it used to be, but that was something I never expected of him. My mind raced with a million thoughts, and none of them were pleasant.“Charles invited you to stay?” I asked, trying to maintain my composure, hiding the storm brewing within me.Janette smirked, enjoying the ruckus she was causing. “Yes, he did. We are back together, you know. It is only a matter of time before he realizes the mistake he made by marrying you.”I felt a surge of anger, and for a brief moment, I imagined myself beating Janette to a pulp, but I had to control it. I couldn’t afford to lose my temper, at least not now.“Why would

~ CharlesI stood at Megan’s door, my smile faltering as I sensed the tension in the air. Megan’s usually warm eyes now reflected a mix of hurt and frustration. The atmosphere between us had become strained, and the decision to invite Janette without Megan’s knowledge had added fuel to the fire.“Can I come in, please?” I asked, attempting to maintain a calm demeanor regardless of the tension between us.Megan’s gaze lingered on me for a moment before she sighed, relenting with a nod. “Fine, come in.”Megan led me to her bed, but she maintained a clear distance between us, something I thought we had closed. I didn’t want to talk about the issue with Jake since we didn’t particularly end it well. And now, I just wanted to clear things up about Janette and not Jake.“About Janette,” I began, but Megan cut me off.“It’s fine. It’s your house, your rules,” she said dismissively. But I knew she was still mad at me.“I have a plan, but Janette staying here is a necessary evil,” I explained.

~ CharlesJanette’s admission echoed through the room, her voice trembling with heavy emotions of guilt, fear, and desperation. I maintained my mask of indifference, watching her carefully as Megan’s gaze shifted between us.“No, Janette, please don’t say that,” Megan said, genuine worry etched on her face.Janette collapsed onto the floor, her hands covering her face as Megan ran to her side. “It is all over social media. My career, everything I have worked for is crumbling,” she sobbed.“Janette please stop,” Megan cooed, then she shot me a suspicious look, narrowing her eyes. “Charles, did you have anything to do with this?”I shrugged nonchalantly, playing the innocent card. “Why would I? I didn’t even know Janette sold her body to wealthy people for fame.”Janette, now sobbing uncontrollably, managed to break free from Megan’s comfort to crawl to my legs. “Charles, you have to believe me. What they are showing isn’t the full truth. Please hear my own side of the story."I scoffed

~ CharlesTime froze as I stared at Janette’s lifeless form on the cold kitchen floor. The pool of blood around her wrists expanded slowly, as if echoing the fading beats of her heart. The shock of the scene pierced through my calculated exterior, leaving me momentarily breathless.Megan, too, stood frozen, her eyes wide with disbelief. The kitchen, once a place of routine and sustenance, transformed into a haunting tableau of tragedy. The air thickened with a mixture of regret and despair.Without thinking, I rushed to Janette’s side, my hands shaking as I fumbled for my phone. “Call an ambulance,” I barked at Megan, who was slowly regaining her composure. The weight of Janette’s life hanging in the balance was a reality check, a stark reminder that my revenge had spiraled into a chaos beyond my control.Megan immediately pulled out her phone from her purse and dialed emergency services, her voice shaking as she told them the situation on the ground. While I attempted to stop the flo

~ Charles.“Charles, I know I should be using the " I told you so" card right now but I just want you to know that I am here for you, if you ever need someone to talk to,” Megan said, her voice firm.I nodded, a mixture of argument and uncertainty whirling within me. For a brief moment, I felt vulnerable. “Megan, I never meant for any of this to happen. I just wanted her to pay for what she did to me all those years ago.”“I know,” Megan said softly, placing a hand on my shoulder.”But revenge rarely brings closure. I hope you know that. It only opens doors to more pain.”We sat in silence, absorbing the gravity of my predicament. Now Megan had become my accomplice for defending me publicly . She was finally seeing the McCall family as her own too. She had become like my father; always cleaning up the mess I make.“I’ll face the consequences,” I finally said, determination replacing the shadows in my eyes. “But I will do restitution in my own way…. Although I need your support.”A sens

~ Megan“Because I am the best husband in Miami,” Charles jested.I raised an eyebrow but didn’t protest. The car whisked us to the marina, where the yacht waited in serene elegance. The crew welcomed us aboard, and we set sail into the open sea. I was led to a cabin where I was given a red sleeveless evening dress to wear.One of the attendants helped me with my hair and makeup. In less than an hour, I was transformed into a beauty goddess. I descended to join Charles on the yacht’s deck. He was also sharply dressed, ready for our dinner date.The gentle breeze kissed my skin as we sailed into the open sea. The Miami skylines gradually faded, replaced by the vastness of the ocean.Dinner was served in a private setup on deck, surrounded by the calming sounds of crashing waves.As we enjoyed our meal, Charles shared stories about places he sailed in the past with his father, stories about his family history, and the significance of various landmarks.The ambiance was surreal, and I fo

~ MeganI stifled a yawn, stretching my limbs, and cracked my neck towards Charles’ side of the bed. He wasn’t there. All my actions immediately paused. Groggily, I opened my eyes, the hazy memories of the previous night slowly coming back to me. A slight smile played on my lips as I remembered the passionate encounter with Charles in my cabin.Confusion crept in as I sat up, scanning the room. The realization hit me that I was alone in the cabin. I felt a mixture of disappointment and irritation. Had last night been a mere moment of heat for Charles? Was it just a way to distract himself from the chaos surrounding his life? Or was it a way to compensate me since he couldn’t reciprocate my feelings for him? Those questions flooded my mind, and a knot formed in my stomach.I reached for my phone on the bedside table, checking for any chats, messages, or calls. There were quite a few but none from Charles. My heart sank a little, but I tried to push away the tears forming in my eyes. Ma

~ CharlesI was dead serious, but it seemed as if my question had sent Megan into a state of shock as her eyes remained unblinking.“I mean, we could be friends with benefits, you know,” I tried to cajole her.At long last, Megan blinked, but a tear escorted it. “Charles, you jerk. How is becoming one of your bedmates going to be beneficial to me?” She asked, her voice rising. “Can you assure me that I would be the only one? Huh? Answer, Charles.”I couldn’t answer her. Neither could I look her in the eyes. Because deep down, I wasn’t sure I wanted to commit just yet. Megan didn’t know it, but she was the first woman I was sleeping with in weeks. All through the time Janette was with me, she couldn’t make me sleep with her, and it had been that way for some time now.I had tried to sleep with countless ladies, but for some reason, I couldn’t bring myself to, no matter how hard I tried. So, I assumed it had something to do with Megan.True to my speculation, I was only able to sleep wi

~ Charles“Megan,” I began, my voice quivering with the burdensome weight of what I needed to say. Her eyes turned to me, full of curiosity and concern, as I confessed the truth that had eaten away at my peace and sanity for years.Megan lost her mind for a moment, kicking, punching, and calling me names. She refused to believe that I was capable of such an evil act. She said she saw the silhouette of the hit-and-run driver, and it wasn't mine. She accused me of taking the fall for someone, and I tried to explain that I was not, but she wouldn't believe me.“Megan, it is the truth, and I can't keep running from it,” I said, my voice steadier with resolve. “I need to own up to what I’ve done.”Megan remained in denial, but I felt ecstatic, more than I have felt in years. It was ironic, huh? I was feeling relieved just knowing that I was going to pay for my crimes. Megan refused to follow me, so after I said my last goodbye to my son, I drove myself to the police station, knowing that

~ MeganI ran out of the office panting. When I saw my sister, I told her everything and I took the flash drive that had the video with me.My sister had a brilliant idea. She smirked as she spoke. “Tomorrow is Charles’ wedding with that snake. Why don't we crash the wedding and expose the truth?”My eyes lit up. “You are so bloody smart and wicked, Lena,” I smirked.With determination burning in our hearts, Celena and I hatched a plan to crash Charles’s wedding, and Lucian was ready to help us in any way possible. We would expose May tomorrow for her deceit. Armed with the evidence that still had its primary source alive, I knew it would be a piece of cake to expose May.The next day, we arrived at the venue of the wedding, our hearts pounding with anticipation and nerves. We were determined to make our move before it was too late.As we stealthily made our way inside, I felt like I was in one of those dramatic telenovelas, and I was the female lead ready to rain hell on the villains
A MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: MARRIED TO MY ENEMY Chapter 137
~ MeganThat was the last conversation I had with Charles before our divorce was made public. Without giving an explanation to the public, he began his wedding preparations, forcing people to speculate about the reason for our separation. Unsurprisingly, there were people who guessed it right and immediately began to cyber-attack Charles and May.I avoided the media and crowded locations because I wasn't ready to face them yet.Every day felt like an endless battle as I tried to survive the storm of emotions that raged within me. The pain of my separation from Charles made me feel vulnerable and broken because neither of us wanted it. But then I knew I had to stay strong, for myself and for the life that lay ahead of me with Charles.As the days crawled by, I found solace in quiet moments, mostly spent alone, where I could reflect on the memories we had shared and the love that had once bound us together. But even in the midst of my grief, a flicker of hope remained, a tiny flame tha

~ Megan"But my father... he has always been too focused on the business, even when he is supposed to be retired. He is hell-bent on protecting the family name at all costs. He can't see past that, even if it means our happiness."Tears welled up in my eyes as I shook my head in disbelief. It was as if things were about to head south, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. "I can't believe he is doing this to me... I thought we had his support.""So did I," Charles admitted, feeling a lump form in my throat. "But it seems like... like he is willing to throw everything away for the sake of that company."I wrapped my arms around Charles, seeking solace in his embrace. “We’ll get through this, Charles. We always do, no matter how tough the going gets. As long as we have each other, we are going to be fine.”I knew that no matter the challenges that lie ahead, we would overcome them, as long as we had each other, we would be fine.“I love you, Megan,” Charles whispered, pressing a

~ CharlesIt was a big shock to meet Megan at my father’s house. I could only hide my surprise by pretending to be unsurprised to see her. As she stepped aside for us to chat, her presence seemed to fill the space, and I couldn't help but feel a rush of conflicting emotions.“Charles?” she narrowed her eyes. “You didn't tell me that you would be coming here,” her voice a mixture of apprehension and determination.“Honey!” I replied, mustering a smile despite the turmoil brewing within me. “Why are you here? I mean, you didn't tell me that you would be seeing Father today…”She hesitated for a moment before speaking, her gaze steady. “I needed to talk to your father, Charles. It's about May and her crazy claims.”My heart sank at the mention of May’s name. The mere thought of her sent heavy waves of frustration through me. But I pushed aside the emotions, focusing on Megan, or better still, trying not to break character so she wouldn't know I came here for a reason.I laughed awkwardly

~ MeganI spoke earnestly, my voice tinged with frustration and desperation, hoping to convey my innocence to my father-in-law amidst the gravity of the situation."She deliberately manipulated the situation to make it appear as though I pushed her down the stairs. But I swear, Father, I would never do such a sinister thing, no matter how upset I may be. You know me, you know that I love Charles a lot and care about this family. I couldn't harm anyone, let alone a pregnant woman for that matter."My father-in-law regarded me with a mixture of concern and contemplation, absorbing my words carefully. "Megan, I've known you for years. I know the kind of person you are, and I find it hard to believe that you would intentionally harm anyone, let alone May."I felt a wave of relief wash over me at his words. Perhaps he was beginning to see through May's deceitful facade."But," he continued, his expression serious, "we can't ignore the evidence before us. May's injuries, her condition... Th

~ MeganHearing that May tried to seduce Charles infuriated me, and I couldn't help but confront the insolent girl. I had been excusing her attitude all this time because I could understand that she was going through depression, but trying to seduce Charles was going too far.I found May sitting in the living room, flipping through a magazine as if nothing had happened. My anger reached boiling point as I approached her.“What the hell do you think you were doing last night?” I snapped, unable to contain my frustration.May looked up, her expression shifting from indifference to mild surprise. “Oh Megan, what a surprise. Did you come to keep me company? Don't bother, I am fine all by myself.”I scoffed at her stupid attempt at feigning ignorance. “Cut the crap, May. I know what you tried to do to Charles yesterday. Seducing him? Seriously? Are you that dumb?”May's facade faltered, and a flicker of guilt flashed across her face before it was replaced by defiance. "What are you talking

~ CharlesI don't know if it would be wrong to say I hate the mother of my unborn child, but I really do. She is a literal pain in the ass who cares little about how her actions affect others. I glanced at Megan, who came along with me to the hospital. She was oddly quiet, but I could see genuine concern etched in her brows for a woman who attempted to ruin her marital life.I don't believe people like Megan should exist in this flawed world with people like May and me; she was literally a saint amidst wolves. She didn't even get upset that our day was ruined by the news; she was rather scared that something might have happened to May.The doctor came out shortly after and spoke to us, telling us the situation of that crazy lady. “She is battling with severe depression; she can't be left alone, otherwise, it might not end well next time,” the doctor said.I immediately flared up. “So we have to hire a caregiver for her now? We might as well just put her in an asylum.”Megan shot up to

~ Charles"Please, I need to talk to Megan urgently," I pleaded with Celene, but she wasn't ready to listen."Leave, Charles. I don't want to call the cops on you," she threatened, arms crossed.I had been coming over all week long with the hopes of seeing Megan, but her family was uncooperative. At first, I thought she wasn't home, but after checking all her usual locations, I could only debunk that she was home.I knew she didn't want to see me, but I didn't want to give up just yet. I needed her to know that I was sorry for all the hurt my past actions were causing her.Today, like the previous days before it, I came to plead with her family members to allow me to visit her, but I froze when she opened the door."Megan…" I tried to grab her, but she turned on her heels inside the house. Without a second thought, I followed her. "Megan, please wait.""Leave me alone," she cried, running up the stairs."Mr. McCall, you should leave. My daughter doesn't want to speak with you," Mr. Co
