Accidentally Married Branch Forty Seven
It had been Jessica's lifelong dream to own her restaurant and be the master chef. She had been saving for it but every time she gets a good amount her aunt came out of nowhere to take all the money from her. She couldn't believe her ears. "I don't have that kind of money," Jessica said. She just barely finished paying off her student loan and it was barely up to two months since her aunt had come to get money from her. She was as poor as anyone could be. The remaining money she could spare was what she used to get a dress and flowers for the wedding. "Why would you think that I would suggest a restaurant and make you pay the cost?" Xavier asked in bewilderment. "Wait are you saying you'll pay the full cost?" Jessica asked also shocked. "Yes Jessica" Xavier replied. His eyes glanced at the time on the car dashboard. He needed to get to work. "Can we talk over it after dinner?" Xavier asked her. He was late and needed to be on his way. If he went on with her then he could be t

Jessica had all the food in small dishes and instructed the house staff on kitchen duty to only set the table when Xavier gets back. She went upstairs and freshened up. She wore something casual and just moisturized her skin and put on some lip balm to avoid breaking her lips. She came back downstairs and went to the main sitting room. Ever since she got to the house she had barely watched anything on television. She glanced at the clock on the wall and it was almost seven o'clock. Dinner was meant to at least be eaten by then so they don't have a lot to battle with in terms of digestion. Although Xavier did not call to say he would be late Jessica thought as much as he had been late ever since she started living there. She sat on one of the sofas that would give her a good look at the television and enough vision point to see who passes by the corridor. The thought of owning her company made her yearn to see him. She put on the television and put it on one of the soap opera chann

They sat by the table and began to eat. To Xavier's surprise, the meal that Jessica prepared was very good. It was good enough to be rated top tier. Maybe helping her set up a restaurant would be a good idea. "You did a fine job," Xavier said complimenting her. Jessica felt a high degree of elation upon hearing that Xavier liked it and felt she did well. She knew it was a good sign that opening the restaurant would go in her favor. She would normally not collect money from strangers. She considered Xavier no more than a stranger. Since she had known him she had barely had a mature and sincere conversation with him therefore she can't consider him a friend. He was a stranger. Why would this stranger consider opening a restaurant for her? She wanted to ask out loud so desperately but she kept her numerous questions to herself. "I am glad it's to your liking" Jessica answered instead. If it came down to accepting the money and she felt uncomfortable she could ask him to act as an i

Xavier's expression changed immediately. He was not happy with the way Jessica had put the statement but he did not want to make an issue out of it. "So about the business" Jessica began. She could see the displeasure and discontent on his face but she refused to allow herself to give up on her dreams because of a silly mistake. "Go on," Xavier said encouraging her. He did not want to blame her for the way she spoke, if anything she was speaking only truths because they would go separate ways as soon as it is a year and she would be ostracised by society. He should be more understanding even though her words were wrong she was still right. He would remain the eye candy in the eyes of the public. "So I was thinking that would be a better idea if you invest in my business instead of giving me the money out rightly," Jessica said. Xavier pondered on her words. She was right. Although he was greatly uninterested in what the public said about him, he needs to be careful with what th

The words of Xavier indicated that he would be eating the meals she prepared from now on. It felt like running the ten-kilometer race and passing by the first kilometer. It seemed small and insignificant because she still had a long way to go before they both became comfortable enough to address each other as friends but she felt elated and happy at least now it showed he that he trusted her. "And dinner too?" Jessica asked. If she made progress she could as well push her lick and try it. "I usually get back very late so I doubt we can have dinner together. I have a lot of work on my plate" Xavier answered in a calm tone. "Oh it's no worries," Jessica said smiling. It was really a breakthrough he decided to have breakfast every day. The rest of dinner was silent and comfortable. Since Jessica had been able to get to making money from his investment she left it at that. She had all she needed at this point. Somehow as she sat her mind drifted to her aunt who had non-stop called h

"Mr. Delgado, I don't think the terms you listed would be in your favor," Mr. Marcus said. He had been the family lawyer. He was the son of the owner of Gates and Sons law firm at the moment and was in charge of the Delgado legal business. Anyone could say that the Gates and Sons law firm is what it is today because of the Delgado family and other influential wealthy people of Chiachester City. "Just put it that way" Xavier responded. He saw right through Jessica that she was neither interested nor moved by his money. He had tried to flaunt it all over her face since day one. He gave her an unlimited card to use for shopping but she only used barely two hundred bucks and she started paying back by trying to send the money to his phone. He had rejected each attempt. He clearly thought that since they were going to be divorced in a year's time she would ask for compensation she did not instead she asked for investment which she would pay back. He guessed all young women of the pre

Since Jessica was excited to be sharing her meals with others her body clock made her stand up by five am. She was going to prepare a full sore as breakfast for her husband today. Although their circumstances were not normal Jessica was going to do her best to make lemonade out of unripe lemons that life had thrown her direction. The house staff was shocked to see her come out to prepare breakfast. "Good morning Roselle" Jessica greeted the middle-aged woman. Roselle had been all stern and annoying on Jessica about the way they address themselves. She insisted that Jessica called her on a first-name basis which Jessica was quite uncomfortable with and she still went ahead to address her as a young lady. If only this woman knew that she and Xavier were planning to sign a contract that would make them go separate ways today. "Good morning young lady, can I help you with something?" Roselle asked when she saw Jessica in the kitchen. Roselle was still very skeptical about the sudden

Roselle felt a little closer to Jessica. She promised herself that if Jessica could show care for the men of the Delgado family then she would support her wholeheartedly. Jessica was fast and efficient in the kitchen and for the first time since Roselle's eyes were not covered by prejudice, she could see what a darling of a person she was. Soon Jessica was done cooking the breakfast, she made extra for Roselle to have to thank her for the help. Roselle had a little of the meal left for her and she was content with the outcome. Roselle never tasted what the young master's mother's pancakes tasted like but she could say that Jessica made a good feast. Jessica glanced at the walk clock on her way out of the kitchen and noticed it was almost eight am. She was going to have her birth and then come back down to wait for Xavier so they could have breakfast before the signing of their contract. Jessica pushed the door knob and entered the room. She noticed an empty bed and heard the showe

"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
