Mrs. Anaya stared at Jessica in shock.

"Jessica, you don't mean to tell me that you still want to see this woman here? I don't want to see her," Mrs. Anaya said.

"I know, Mom. But since she's already here, just let her see me first before she leaves," Jessica replied to her mother as she sighed.

"Alright, Jessica. I am already leaving, so take care of yourself. If you need anything, don't forget to call the nurses or send for the guards. In short, I will be here waiting for Mrs. Robinson to leave you first because I don't trust her."

Mrs. Anaya's eyes burned angrily at Dylan's mother, who stared at her in surprise.

Jessica smiled sadly at her mother’s words, and her two brothers walked up to meet her. They said, "Take care, sis, and also take care of baby Godsent."

"Okay," Jessica replied, and her two brothers left the room, while her mother walked away to sit in a chair, waiting for Mrs. Angela to leave first.

Story is good but so poorly written. The English is really bad especially the verbs. And what a ridiculous name she gave her baby Godsent. What a joke. Poor little boy stuck with an awful name. He is bound to get bullied!

When he saw that she didn’t want to speak to him, he followed her into the elevator, and they both descended to the hospital lobby."Mom, why are you leaving? Won't you come and see my wife and my baby?" Dylan asked.Mrs. Angela Robinson stopped beside her car in the parking lot. She looked at Dylan as they stood outside the hospital car park and replied, "I have already seen Jessica and my grandson, Dylan. Jessica is the only daughter-in-law I know and will have from you. How can you send your wife and baby away while hosting another woman in your house?"Mrs. Angela's eyes welled with tears, and Dylan replied, "Mom, Jessica's baby isn't mine. I know Jessica must have fed you lies in there, which is why I asked you to go home earlier."Mrs. Angela shook her head again as Dylan stood beside her car door.

    "Good afternoon, Stephen. How's your day going today?" Jessica asked Stephen."I am fine, surprised to see you calling me," Stephen teased Jessica, and she relaxed on her bed and stared up at the ceiling above in her room."Why would you be surprised to see my calls? Aren't you the one calling me before, but I was downstairs then, and just returned back now to my room?" Jessica replied."Of course, I know. I was only teasing you, hahaha," Stephen laughed, and Jessica smiled.She knew that Stephen liked her, and he was trying his best to make her happy, but she felt that if at all she wanted to move on, it was too early for her to move on with him, as it would seem like she had always wanted to divorce Dylan all along."Aren't you busy in your office today?" Jessica asked Stephen, as she knew that he worked with the state commissioner of police. His father is also a billionaire in their state, and they owned many companies that she could not list."No, I am not busy. I am bored and thin

    Dylan finally stared up at Rosie's face. He knew that she nagged a lot, and he didn't want to compare her with Jessica.Dylan replied, "Look, Rosie, didn't you understand what I just said? This has got nothing to do with Jessica. I just told you that my company got defrauded last month by some suspicious scammers, and all that you care about is us getting married."Rosie pouted her lips and stared away from Dylan, as he was still seated on the living room black couch.She had also added weight and was looking more chubby and fat now, and she knew that Dylan wasn't interested in her like before.Well, Rosie wouldn't have been concerned, as she could have gone back to Frederick, but she hadn't completed her mission yet in Dylan's life.She wanted to ensure that she got wed to Dylan so as to finally claim all his remaining assets when she would divorce him and go back to meet Frederick.

    Rosie smiled and heard Frederick respond, "This weekend, but it will be when Dylan is not around? As you know, part of my reason for not visiting since is because of the fact that Richard looks so much like me," Frederick said."I know, Fred. I really miss you so much. I think this weekend is okay, as Dylan won't be around, and he will be in the police station to know how the money got missing from his company records," Rosie replied."Hmm, we both know how. Thanks to that, next week, I am launching my new phone production company, and I want you to accompany me to the launching ceremony. I have invited a lot of partners that I worked with before to join me in celebrating the launch of my own products now," Frederick said."Hmm, isn't that too sudden? I mean, what if Dylan suspects me, seeing us taking photos together?" Rosie asked worriedly, as she wasn't done scamming Dylan yet.She wanted to ensure that Dylan returned to the poor man that he was after his family's downward spiral, a

    Jessica felt embarrassed to hide away as she met Stephen's gaze on her. She was already standing out in the living room, as she wanted to retire back upstairs to her room...'How can Stephen be here at this late hour of the night? Shit! I thought he was joking,' Jessica said in her mind as she wanted to disappear from the dining room.She quickly hastened her steps to walk away to the stairs and pretended like she was not the one that Stephen had come to see."Jessica, where are you going to? Without saying 'Hi' to your guest?" Mrs. Anaya questioned Jessica back with a bright smile on her face as she saw her daughter walking away.Jessica stood frozen and turned back to meet all her family's gazes on her.She replied, "Mom, I want to take Godsent upstairs to my room to sleep. It's already late now, Stephen. Why not go back home, unless you're here to see Rex?""Sister, Stephen isn't here to see me, and you know it. What do I need Stephen for? I am already off to see someone important.

Well, except for the doctors and nurses at the private hospital where she gave birth to her children; she did not have the time to start correcting them, as she used to be Mrs. Robinson."Well, I am Inspector Matthew Gerald calling you regarding a report made by your ex-husband at our police station, Mr. Dylan Robinson."Jessica's heart clenched as she heard that she was being invited to the police station.

    At the Albert family mansion, inside the third-floor sitting room, Remy turned his back on Sharon. He knew she had lied to him about everything. They already had two kids together, and he didn't have any problems with her, aside from the fact that she lied about her family."Why, Sharon? So all this time, you knew Rosie was dating my sister's husband, and you kept quiet about it?" Remy asked sadly, avoiding his wife's tearful face as she knelt behind him, crying and holding his legs."I didn't know then, Remy. Believe me, I didn't know Dylan was your brother-in-law. I hadn't met you when Rosie started dating my brother. I don't even know when Dylan's and Rosie's relationship began. I only knew Rosie as my brother's girlfriend.

    Sharon smiled and told Frederick, "Don't worry about serving me anything, brother. I'll transfer 1 million dollars to you now, and if you manage it well, I'll give you another. But I hope Remy doesn't find out. He keeps loading my account with money and wonders why I don't spend it on ordering shoes and bags to look nice for him.""He's a good husband and wants you to look nice for him. I hope you can talk to him about me. I really miss my friendship with Rex. How's Rex doing now?" Frederick asked sadly. Sharon replied, "He's doing well, brother. Rex is married and has a son now.

Are you leaving for the office now?"Rosie sighed and replied, "Yes. Do you have money to take care of our kids? I hope you're not planning to sell off my two kids to raise money for yourself alone...""Rosie..." Frederick frowned and replied, "They're my kids too, and I don't need a DNA test to prove that. With the way you were comfortably cheating on me with Dylan... You can keep any money if you want. Or you might as well leave it. I spoke to my sister on the phone, and she promised to help me once she visits to

You just got here today, and you already know your way around my house."“Our house, Rosie. Don't forget that we are still married and not yet divorced.

Don't tell me that you're spying on me now? I was just telling Rosie that she cannot see me in my office, as she was requesting to meet with me today to discuss a partnership deal. You remember that I banned her before? She was asking me for a partnership."Dylan was transparent, so he stood up from the blue chair and walked up to Jessica, who was standing in the center of their bedroom, staring at him suspiciously as if he was already cheating on her again with Rosie.Dylan was wearing only a white robe, as he had just finished taking his bath.
