"What could be so important about MY WIFE that you had to interrupt my meeting?" Xavier asked as he went to his table.

The meeting came to an end shortly after and Xavier came back to his office where Brian was waiting for him. Brain allowed him to take off his suit jacket and hang as he does before sitting down.

"This," Brian said slipping the iPad that had the image of Jessica on the screen.

"Your wife posted this. It is a new dress from the gates line and the internet is going crazy" Brian added.

"And the reason why this is an emergency?" Xavier asked unable to see the reason why his meeting was disturbed.

It was just a woman in a dress. He did not understand what was going on.

"Well, is this good for you two? With the way you might end up," Brian asked.

He was concerned about his boss but even more concerned about Jessica. Xavier was born into money and fame. He was used to the public eye being on him, he would survive it if they were to divorce. He would probably get out o

    "Do you like Jessica?" Brian asked staring at his friend. Xavier did not care for anyone and he did not try to care for them. Seeing he was willing to allow his wife to come for the event because it would be good for Jessica was a new level of discovery for Brian. "Like? Jessica?" Xavier asked looking up at his friend. That was the weirdest thing he had heard all day. "I do not," He said but he was not convincing even himself. His voice was usually firm. When he spoke it was usually difficult to argue with him. 'Only Jessica has successfully argued with me and gotten away with it' Xavier thought. "You do not?" Brian said and repeated the statement two more times. Xavier nodded his head like a child. Since his voice had come out shaky as he tried to defend himself he could not take any chances and speak. "Then why do you care if my wife would make her comfortable?" Brian asked. Xavier raised his head and blinked multiple times. He felt like he was deer caught in the headlights. He

    Xavier consumed himself with work while Jessica and Leslie spent a great deal of money. When Jessica finally sat down at a coffee shop to calculate and gather energy before going home she was amazed at how easily Leslie spent money without calculating. This was the day-to-day life of some people. Was she to live carelessly as such now? "I am so exhausted," Leslie said sighing. She unlocked her phone to see a message from her husband. He was making an assumption that Xavier was probably growing a soft spot for Jessica. Leslie smiles broadly. She was going to do all in her power to match them up together and make them stay together. They look good together too. They would make the ultimate power couple. "Are you going to show Xavier the dresses you got?" Leslie said dropping her phone to the table and taking a sip of her ice drink. Jessica's eyes got wide and she almost choked on the ice drink she was busy sipping. "Obviously not," she said in a long voice. "You like him," Leslie

    Jessica had her driver drop off Leslie at her house. Both girls said goodbye to each other before Jessica went back home. Jessica was late for lunch preparation so she would just make dinner. The driver delivered the bags of clothes they had purchased to Angel who moved the clothes to the room. "Where is Dawson?" Jessica asked as she entered the kitchen with Roselle on her tail. "He is having a nap" Roselle responded. Dawson was going to wait for Jessica to make a meal for him but seeing that Jessica was not coming on time he had lunch made by one of the kitchen staff and then went to bed. "What of Lady Genevieve?" Jessica followed up when the lady who appeared out of nowhere dropped in her mind. "She left since morning and is yet to return" Roselle answered. "Okay Thank you," Jessica said turning to go freshen up. She would make dinner but she would have to change her clothes and freshen up first. "What is Dawson and Xavier's favorite food?" Jessica said stopping as she was g

    Burke's voice was just how she remembered it. Deep and smooth. It made her stomach feel like something whizzing through a bottomless pit. "Hello Burke," she said trying to keep her voice steady. "I have been trying all day to reach you," he said. She felt like shouting that she would divorce Xavier and come back if he would accept her. Xavier did not love her anyways. She would spare herself the heartbreak of the future by taking a walk now. "Oh okay, for what?" Jessica responded feeling nervous. She felt her hands slip off her phone as swear lubricated them. She stood up and went to look at herself in the mirror. She tried to steady her breathing. She was not sure what he wanted to ask her but she was going to say yes to him in a heartbeat. This would prove to Leslie that she did not like Xavier. "I went to the Real estate office today" he began. Jessica felt her stomach sink. It was obvious that Burke was not calling for a good cause. He was calling to feed his selfishness an

    "I gave you the advice to buy your property at the same time I was buying mine but you decided against it because you are proud and narcissistic," Jessica said. She rarely loses her cool but when she did she always found it hard to control herself. How dare he demand money from her when she had the true right and ownership of the building? She was glad she was yet to put the building in his name. She has said she would do so after the wedding but he had shamelessly left her at the altar and cheated on her with her friend. "I can't believe you are so selfish. You are living in a mansion and you can't leave an ordinary two-bedroom apartment for me?" Burke asked. Jessica had not noticed until this moment how narcissistic he was. And to think he was also trying to gaslight her into giving him the building. Jessica opened her mouth to speak before the phone was yanked from her hand. She turned startled because she thought she was alone in the room. It was Xavier there who collected t

    "Why were you on the phone with your ex? Were you thinking of going back to him?" Xavier asked pointing the phone back to Jessica. Jessica felt like she was caught red-handed while trying to steal something valuable. Why was she on the phone with him? Did it make sense that she was still moved by his mere name on the call? She was now open to the fact that he was a gas-lighting narcissistic person but did it make sense that she still wanted him to ask her to come back? "He called and I thought maybe I might have what he wanted. I thought we could work out our differences and move past all the arguments and be friends again" Jessica said. What she said was half a lie. To be honest she did not want to be friends again she wanted to be lovers. She wanted to go back to the days when they could stay up all night talking about their future together. "I thought girls blocked the number of their exes?" Xavier asked. He was antisocial but he still picked up one or two things occasionally

    Emma walked into the room. She had gone for a medical check-up. She was shocked that she had gotten pregnant within the space of a month. She had been using protection but it seemed ineffective."Burke, have you gotten the money for the venue?" Emma said putting her bag down on the bed. Emma had told Burke that he had to marry her or she would get rid of the baby. Burke felt subjected to making Emma feel comfortable and good about herself. When they both learned of Jessica's marriage to the billionaire Burke promised to work hard and give Emma her dream wedding. Emma told Burke that there was no way that she would have a baby without getting married. He was to propose and then plan a wedding that would cost millions. "Baby I told you that if we do not pay for the venue this week then we have to be put on a waitlist for two months," Emma said going to hold his shoulders.

    "Oh Hello," Genevieve said in a high-pitched voice as she enters the kitchen. "I am so sorry. I tried to meet up to help you with dinner" she added when her eyes fell on the spread on the kitchen aisle. "I'll help you set the table," she said moving to the drawer with the utensils and plate. Jessica had her mind wandering around. Could it be that Burke was in dear need of money? Was that why he shamelessly called her to ask about the building? Was she selfish to not help him? The thoughts ravaged her mind as she stood in the kitchen. Genevieve looked at her and noticed she was not in her right mind. She moved closer to her and stood in her front. "Hellllooooo," she said dragging out the word. That was the best way she knew to get her attention. "Oh Hello, good evening," Jessica said startled to see her standing in front of her. "When did you get here?" She added. When she came back she had asked of her and discovered she wasn't around and it was quite a shock that she came back

"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
