Jessica watched as they got out and the room fell silent. Ever since Leslie got inside she had been going on and on nonstop about everything she found worth talking about. Now that she was alone she missed the chatter. She was only glad she was able to successfully uproot Xavier who had refused to leave the hospital room all day.

She stretched to retrieve the remote from the cupboard and switched it on to a soap opera. She was not a fan of television but watching the soap opera would let her sleep faster.

The door to the room opened and Angel popped her head inside and smiled. She has been worried about the young lady since she was rushed out in the morning and she had volunteered with all her might to be the one who brought dinner for the young lady.

"Hello Young lady," Angel said walking in with a lunch box and closing the door behind her.

Jessica unconsciously uttered a sigh of relief. The silence was killing her and it was barely an hour. She has slept all afternoon and now ev

    Meanwhile, Xavier, Brian, and Leslie are sitting down to dinner at the restaurant of a seven-star hotel. "Why did you not have a big ceremony?" Leslie asked throwing some table chips into her mouth. "Because I did not want to" Xavier answered. Although Xavier was with few words he had to always answer when it came to Leslie. She would push him to the extreme and force him to answer. That was her style. "But it's every woman's dream to walk down the aisle and throw her bouquet while round to greet the guest," Leslie said dreamily her mind going back to the day of her wedding. Xavier looks uncomfortable and picks up the menu. They had ordered their food and the chef was making it but her statements and questions were getting on his nerves already. "Do not tell me that you did not ask for her opinion and it got married in the courthouse" Leslie said using her palm to cover her wide-opened mouth. "Does she know?" Xavier asked directing the question at Brian. From her constant quest

    For the rest of the dinner, Leslie was fuming mad at Xavier. She could never have thought that he was such a cold-hearted jerk. She knew that he was stuck up and lost in his world all by himself but she never thought that he would be selfish. Leslie would get even angrier if she visited Jessica the next day and she said she had already signed the contract of divorce in a year with Xavier. She might have even more off her head if she knew that Jessica did not read a single line of the contract but appended her signature. "Make him take a cab back to where ever he wants to go," Leslie said and opens the door of the car and enters. Xavier had ridden with them in their car and they were supposed to drop him back at the hospital but with annoyance that she felt there was no way she would ride in the same car with him for a single minute more. Leslie closed the door and waited on her husband to come in and begin driving. "Don't you think that Leslie is overreacting?" Xavier asked Brian

    Xavier ordered a ride back to the hospital. He walks into the VIP ward. He enters the room to see the television playing with a sleeping Jessica on the bed and a strange figure sleeping soundly beside her. He become alarmed but stayed calm because he did not want to startle Jessica awake. He moves closer and puts a hand over the strange figure:'s shoulder and shakes her awake. Sleepy Angel raises her head and gets startled when she sees Xavier standing there. She stands to her feet with the speed of light and moves back before bowing her head to greet him. "Young Master, Good evening," Angel said. Since she was greeting him this way Xavier put two and two together and he knew she was a staff from the house. "I brought dinner that Roselle prepared for the young lady" Angel explained. Xavier barely knew and remembered the faces of the house staff. "You're dismissed," Xavier said turning and leaving the room. Angel had slept off while she waited for Jessica to finish eating. Jess

    Hearing Xavier's morning voice made Jessica weak in her knees. She put her hands on the sink in front of her to keep her from falling. If she fell again then Xavier would make a bigger issue than yesterday. He put on a tough front but it was obvious that he was a kind man at heart. "What are you doing?" He asked again his hand going into his hair to arrange it. "I want to visit Dawson so I wanted to freshen up" Jessica responds turning to face the mirror. If she continued looking at him she might gawk at him continuously all day long. "This early?" he asked. He could not believe that someone who was barely unable to walk in the day before was now the one looking to wander all around the hospital. "Come here," he said pulling her hands and taking her with him. He was not going to allow her to wander anywhere unless the doctor said she was fine after all series of tests to be done. Jessica liked the warmth of his big hands over her tiny hands. It was like a miracle. While she date

    "I am sorry," Xavier said his hand leaving her hand. The way her fist went up in a clutch he knew that he had offended her. He did not know what exactly he did but he knew he was in the wrong at that moment. "For what?" Jessica asked surprised that he was apologizing easily. She did not know how to respond to his easy apology. "I am not sure but it seems like you don't like me to refer to you as the wife or daughter-in-law of the Delgado family," Xavier said. "It is not that I don't like it or that I like it. It is that you keep saying that I am your wife but you do not even think of me as your wife and I don't like that. It is obvious for both of us that we would leave each other in eleven months so let's just live like that and follow through the contract." Jessica said in one breath. She did not know why his statement annoyed her but she was and Xavier did not know why her analysis did not sit well with him. He knew she was correct but did not appreciate her pointing it out to

    Coming back in with Doctor Xavier pushes his grandfather on the wheelchair into the ward Jessica was staying in. Jessica turns when she heard the door open and sirs up straight Her eyes light up as she sets her eyes on Dawson in the wheelchair. Ever since she met him this was the first time she saw him outside of the ward. She was still planning on taking him home. "How do you feel today Mrs. Delgado? " the doctor asked rubbing the alcohol-based sanitizer before touching her. "Much better," She said. "Could you lie down for me I would like to check something" the doctor responded. Jessica nodded before laying down on her back. Xavier moved Dawson in the chair away from the door and they both waited silently at the couch area. "Your vitals are stable and I think you can be discharged this afternoon" he continued. "Thank you, doctor," Jessica said with a smile on her face. Usually, her cramps lasted three days before they finally die down, and then she would be able to do what s

    "I would leave you now," Ross said. He knew it was his cue to leave hearing the anger in Xavier's voice. Everyone knew that he had quite a temper and no one was interested in cutting limes with him. Ross silently leaves the room. "What did I do so wrong this time?" Jessica asked resting her back to the bed frame and rolling her eyes. She was only looking out for Dawson she wondered why Xavier would be angry to come home and meet an empty house while his grandfather stays in boredom at the hospital. If he was at home she would keep him company before she starts her business and take him on nice dates, cook for him, and keep him company throughout the day. "He is my grandfather and I would be the one to make decisions concerning him," Xavier said his teeth gritted. He already felt abandoned by his grandfather preferring Jessica over him. Now Jessica wants to keep her nose in their business. "I thought I was a part of the Delgado family?" Jessica asked throwing back to what he had

    Xavier left in a hurry because he could not stand the judging eyes of his grandfather. He told the driver to be the one to bring Jessica back home as he went back to work. Jessica had made it clear she did not want to be called a part of the family if they were going to go through with the divorce and there was no turning back for him as he had his mind set on the divorce. Dawson who was uninterested before going home decided to go home after seeing the way Xavier reacted to Jessica today. Maybe if he were home he could monitor more things than putting Roselle in charge. She has promised she would get them together on a honeymoon but had failed the whole first month of their wedding. "I am glad you decided to come home with me," Jessica said. If Dawson had insisted that he was not going to go back home with her she would have looked like a fool in the eyes of Xavier and she would have felt terrible. If she had somewhere else to go she would have gone to hide there. Since Xavier kn

"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.

    "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?

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
