"What do you have to say?" Joshua asked not raising his head from his table.

"Why are you treating me like such a sinner?" Annette asked sniffing. She knew that he hated to see her cry and he would be moved if she cried.

"I made a mistake but it was only because of my love for you and nothing more" she said tears rolling down her cheeks.

"And I apologized" she added in more tears. "I am sincerely sorry"

"Is that why you came here to work?" Joshua asked finally raising his head.

"I told Andrew that I would like to finally take responsibility for my life and asked him for advice, he told me that working would be the best option so I asked him to help me with work" She told the tale in a way that would make her seem good.

"That's good since you would be working you should focus your energy on work instead of trying to win me over," Joshua said harshly.

Annette sighed. She knew that she had to present the best image to him. "Of course, it is obvious that you sincerely love your girlfrie

    "Let's go for dinner but we have to go with Ms Brunswick I am making her work overtime so I need to get her dinner as well" Joshua said.He knew it would be difficult and pointless to try and avoid her because she would just keep popping up over and over again."What?" Anette asked her face turning sour. She had a plan for that night. She was going to get him drunk and then into a room and blackmail him with a one-night stand but seeing that Aletta would join them she knew her plan was slowly failing."Why don't you just give her your card so she can buy dinner on her own?" Anette asked. She gave herself a mental pat for coming up with a solution so quickly."You don't want her to join us?" Joshua asked raising his eyebrow in confusion.Was she supposed to be picky about who they had dinner with?"It's not that, I just thought we would have dinner as friends and not have someone else impose on us" she said."Well if anyone is imposing it's you because I promised to buy her dinner tonig

    Joshua told Aletta all they had discussed after he had teased her about being cute for trying to know what they had discussed. He was going to tell her anyway but he felt touched that she wanted to know."I found this place online, it's really popular these days," Anette said as they entered the car.She had fought for the passenger seat close to Joshua who was the one driving. Aletta had let her have it since she did not want to raise suspicion, especially in the mind of Anette."Let me have the address where we will go there" Joshua said before she could go into details about the place."Really?" she squealed in excitement." I have always wanted to go there since I returned to Chiachester" she added before imputing the address into the car GPS."I hope their meals are worth the hype" Aletta murmured silently."What was that Aletta?" Anette asked ensuring to put a tone of spite on her name.Aletta knew that Anette clearly did not want her there and it was kind of obvious to everyone

    "We will have the raw fish platter," Anette said as the waiter walked to their table with the menus in his hands."Oh okay," the waiter said with a shocked expression on her face as he walked away."You did not even allow us to take a look at the menu?"Joshua asked trying to fill up his cup with the jar of water on the table."Trust me, I have had their platter before and it tastes delightful," Anette said touching his arm lightly."I don't eat raw fish" Aletta said pursing her lips together."Oh, you don't?" Anette's eyes were twinkling as if she had just received extremely good news from her."Yes" Aletta said and Anette shook her head."Oh too bad, this is a raw fish restaurant" Anette said.She felt so good, she had not even known that Aletta did not eat raw fish when she picked this restaurant but now she had a good reason to kick her out."Then should we change restaurants?" Joshua asked shuffling in his seat."Yes please," Aletta said turning to face Joshua with a pleading expr

    "Thank you for getting me out of there" Aletta said as she drove out of the place."No need to thank me, I felt a little suffocated as well" Joshua said merging with the main lane."Then why did you agree to have dinner with her?" "I knew that she would only make an issue out of it and cry crocodile tears in front of the parents while trying her best to make me the bad guy" Joshua explained."Really? I wonder how you all did not notice until now" Aletta said. It was weird that only Jeanne had seen her true nature and that everyone had tried to silence her when she tried to explain it to everyone."I do wonder as well, it's like she deceived us for such a long time," Joshua said. "I had always known her to push until she got what she wanted and I always saw it as a good trait but looking back now I can tell that she was just good at making people see her as someone who needed help despite her own situation" "You should be careful of her or else she might just push with enough tenacit

    They had both had something to eat and he had driven her home and then went home himself."Why are you always out? I finally get to see my daughters after such a long time but both of you leave me at home all day long and even come back late on a Friday" Eunice said as Aletta entered the house."Is Alethea home?" Aletta asked as she dropped to the couch with a groan."No, I have been alone in the house since morning. I thought Alethea did not work?""I guess she must be uncomfortable with you at home," Aletta said.Her mom was a wonderful person but the truth always remained that she was a bad mother. She had never paid attention to her kids and therefore made them mature at such a young age. Alethea never knew what she looked like until she was entering her puberty years."Why would she feel uncomfortable with me?" Eunice asked sitting down and handing her daughter a cup of water."Maybe for the reason that you were almost always absent at home," Aletta said. She did not find it easy

    "Mom, can I ask you something?" Aletta asked raising her legs to the couch."Of course," Eunice asked with her eyes twinkling. She felt so good to hear that question from her. She has always tried to be a good mom to her girls but somehow it always did not work out and it was as if she presented this image of a bad idea to her daughters over and over again. "What do you want to know? I will try my best to answer" "Well it's about marriage and love, you gotten your heart broken so many times before that it makes me agitated about love. I always found it difficult to open up to others and want to receive love from others and even when I do I always find heartbreak at the end of it" Aletta took a deep breath and closed her eyes."I mean look at Paul he promised me everything but ended up breaking my heart in shreds. You have faced this so many times so how is it that you end up loving another so much that you don't care about the end of the relationship? You always seem to give it your

    "Going to work every day is harder than I thought" "And hearing you whine about it every day makes my ears ache," Joshua said as they drove into the office premises."Gosh you are always so mean, I wonder how your girlfriend copes with you," Jeanne said in an attacking tone."She loves me too much and I am sure she would choose you to be the nuisance anyway" Joshua said."I highly doubt that" "Just get down now" Joshua said gesturing to her as he shooed her away."I am going now" she said opening the door and turning back to him and then sticking her tongue out to him before she swiftly made her way in."She is still such a child," Joshua said in a chuckle to himself." Are you getting down here sir?" Jack asked glancing at him from the mirror."I will get down at the basement, Jeanne had warned me not to go inside with her or her reputation would be ruined," Joshua said and Jack nodded before driving away. "Jack, do you know what she means by her reputation would be ruined? Everyo

    "Good morning," Thiago said standing in front of Jeanne's desk."How can I help you?" she asked before raising her head to him. Her mouth formed an o shape as her eyes widened in confusion."What are you doing here?" she asked in a hushed whisper. "Me?" Thiago asked his hand on his chest."Yes" she continues in a low voice while nodding so vigorously he was afraid they would roll off her neck."I am here in business" Thiago responded taking up her low voice."Oh, that's good, business with who?" Jeanne asked. Her eyes were twinkling as if she had heard good news."With your brother" he replied maintaining a low voice. "Okay but you came to the wrong office," Jeanne said raising her head. She saw the people staring at her, wondering why she was engaging the strange man standing in their office."Yeah, I realized that" he said scratching his eyebrow with amusement lingering on his lips. "I think I messed up the direction given to me by the receptionist but then I was about to leave wh

"Joshua you know I do not like being late for any of these events" Aletta screamed back at him. Altetta paced back and forth at the bottom of the stairs. "You know you should not be screaming while you are this pregnant"Joshua said as he came down the stairs with his daughter in his hands. "If you had come down earlier then I would have had no reason to scream that much" she retorted and he smiled. "It was my little pumpkin here who kept me waiting" Joshua replied as he got to stand b

    "I am so happy for you, this is finally happening," Aletta said holding the arms of Jeanne excited."I am excited but also nervous very nervous does anyone have calming pills?" Jeanne said slipping her hands off Aletta's hand and feeling the sweat on her palm."Calm down, it's just you and Thiago, everyone else is just like a rock. I promise you once you get on that altar every of that nervousness would be gone" Aletta continued. "Thank you," Jeanne said sarcastically."Are you nervous because its mu brother? I can help you run away from this right now" Nichole suggested and Alethea rolled her eyes. "Are all sisters this way? This was the same advice you gave Aletta the other day" Alethea said and Jeanne shook her head. "How can I leave, I have been dreaming of this day" Jeanne replied. "Then calm down even though I don't know why you would dream of marrying my brother but we all choose our battles I guess" Nichole shrugged as she sat down."Nichole" Aletta chastised because she k

    "You have to get to work" Aletta said rubbing the hand of Joshua gently. They had arrived back from their honeymoon over the weekend and this Monday morning was the first time Joshua was going back to work after the wedding."Can't I just lay down here with you all day?" he said taking out her hand and pulling her down to his level."You kept saying that and prolonged the honeymoon by two weeks,""Call me a criminal for wanting to spend time with my wife, I am getting the feeling that you do not want to spend any time with me" Joshua said opening one eye and giving her a judging look. "Joshua, you know that is not true, so get up now""You are no longer my assistant, you are supposed to be begging me to stay a bit more with you""What makes you think I don't want to do that?" Aletta asked taking his dishevelled morning hair back from his face."Because you keep urging me to get back to work so quickly, it's like you can't wait to get rid of me" Joshua took his head back to the pillow

    "Mom don't cry again, you might get a serious headache at this rate," Aletta said rubbing the back of her mother while in a hug. The entire wedding was over already and the whole family was seeing the couple off as they were going directly to the airport for their honeymoon. "Come on, at this rate they might miss their flight" Leon said trying to pull Eunice off her daughter. She had been bawling the entire ceremony, if someone saw her they would think it was a sad occasion. "My daughter," Eunice said as she finally pulled away and took a step back. "I am so happy and so proud of you because you managed or find love for yourself even after everything" Eunice sniffled and smiled. "Thank you, Mom," Aletta said with a smile. "You better get going now" Jessica said stepping forward."We are on our way now" Joshua said pulling open the door and gesturing for Aletta to get in."Call us when you get there" Jessica called after the shut door."Do not call us" Xavier said as if he was giv

    "I was always unsure about how I felt about you, You were always around me, taking care of me and I felt anxious whenever you were out of sight. A little secret that was the reason I always made you work overtime even when it was not necessary" Joshua said and there was a burst of small laughter across the room.They were both standing in from of the priest and altar but they had decided to take their custom written vows there. Joshua cleared his throat and looked up from his paper to stare at Aletta whose eyes never left his face. He flashed a small warm mile to her and she returned it."I never realized my feelings for you until you made that drunken confession that night that caused us to go into a relationship. I had always thought about marriage but for me, it was the only way for me to make children that would take over the company one day, being with you makes me so excited to think of waking up every morning with you by my side, I think of planting kisses on your lips and spend

    "Are you feeling nervous?" Alethea asked Aletta who was sitting in the waiting room with her shaky hands. "Yes I am, who wouldn't be?" Aletta asked as she closed her eyes to steady her breath. "I mean you are very right, who would like to marry my annoying brother, as much as I would like to call you my sister in law I can help you escape if you wish to" Jeanne chimed in. "Thank you so much for the suggestion, I am nervous about this and not rethinking my decision. I can't wait to be married to him" Aletta said as her eyes shot open. "Ew" Jeanne said as she gaged. " What do you see in him?" she added as she picked at her nails. "Everything I want to see" Aletta added. "Jeanne stop trying to put ideas in her head" Jessica cautioned coming towards them. "What did I do?" Jeanne whined."I heard what you said" Jessica replied giving Jeanne a warning look. Jesica knew that her daughter was playing around but she did not want Aletta taking any of the words to heart. "I know I have s

    "Mom's boyfriend would be here soon," Alethea said as she dropped the dish in her hand to the table. "I can not believe that I am being made to meet my mom's boyfriend at her age" "What I can not believe is that she can't order out but is making us to make food for him"Alethea whined as she moved back to the kitchen."What is even more crazy is that she is in a relationship again" Aletta exclaimed as she moved behind Alethea. "Don't get me wrong I guess I am glad she is finding love again" "Same here, if she is happy then there is no issue. Love is in the air" Aleteha added coming back to the table "So why don't you have anyone to share the love with?" Aletta asked. They were making the last trip from the kitchen to the table. "Says you? Who told you that I do not have someone to share this love with?" Alethea said dragging out her sentence and a weird smile climbing her face."Alethea you are hiding something from me" Aletta said going to clutch her sister's hand. "Spill now" sh

    Aletta and Joshua tried to reach Anette and Richard but it was as if they had fallen off the radar. "At least we tried" Aletta said as she set down the phone to the table. "Happy now?" Joshua asked and she nodded. "I guess I have to get going now" she said taking up her phone from the table."Where to? You just got here" Joshua was sad because they had finalized her resignation and she had not been around him like he wanted her to be. He was happy regardless that she was doing what she loved. "I have to go finalize things with HR on hiring your new assistant and then I have to go shopping with your mom and sister" Aletta explained. "Can we at least have dinner together?" Joshua asked and started expressing shock when he saw the expression on her face. "We can not? I barely see you anymore these days" he whined like a child who was cheated of having any ice cream. "I am having dinner with my family, mom is introducing her boyfriend to us today and honestly, I love spending time wi

    "Did you hear about Anette?" Aletta asked as she pushed the jar of pickles into the hands of Joshua. They had picked a date for the wedding and it was in three weeks. They were having one of the date nights where they stayed back home and cooked for each other. "What happened to her?" Joshua asked. Anette shook her head in bewilderment, how could this man be so oblivious to everything happening around him?"Have you seen her in a while?" Aletta asked. She wanted to know how much he did not know. "Well, since that day she came to our house, I did not think much of it when I did not see her again," Joshua said truthfully before taking off the lid of the jar. "But you know she called off her wedding and left the country so abruptly with Richard?" Aletta asked hoping that he at least knew about that fact. Yes, Anette did hurt them all but it would be too mean to not care about her when she had sincerely apologized."Maybe they did not want the wedding again?" Joshua asked shrugging. Al
