"Hi babe," Stephen said to Jessica as he finally approached her."Good afternoon. I didn't think that you would attend the Thanksgiving service. Do you usually go to church?" Jessica asked Stephen shyly, as she was wearing a wine-colored native gown paired with her black stiletto shoes, and she looked breathtakingly beautiful, like a charming princess."Why wouldn't I go to church? Like seriously, Jessica, hahaha!" Stephen laughed, while Jessica smiled as she was walking down to her car in the parking lot. She saw other cars driving out as the church had closed while the maid walked up to meet her with her three kids.Jessica actually came to the church with her kids, and she saw her maid brought them to meet her. She told Stephen, "I have to go home now. You take care.""Wait, Jessica, why not let us hang out together at any eatery to relax and have some fun before you go home?""With my kids?" Jessica asked Stephen in surprise, and he replied, "Yes, is there anything wrong with the t
Jessica knew that Stephen was an understanding man, but for how long would Stephen continue to understand her?She got into her car and drove back home to her father's house, wondering what she would later explain to her kids, as it was not easy to take them home to Dylan's house.Arriving home at her father's mansion, Jessica drove into the garage and parked.She told her maid to take Nina and Godsent into the house, along with Caleb, while she waited in her car and finally called Esther's phone number.Jessica needed someone to talk to, and to clear her head, as Esther Friday was around. She called Esther on the phone."Hello, Jessica, what's up?" Esther asked immediately the phone call connected."Where are you, Esther?" Jessica asked, and Esther noticed that her friend was in distress again, as she had seen Jessica the previous Saturday at Remy's wedding, looking all beautiful and with a new man, but Jessica didn't have the time to explain."I am at home, Jessica. What's wrong?" Es
"Mom!" Stephen looked at his mother in surprise."You cannot send Jessica away," Stephen said."And I am sending her away now. Stephen, what has come over you? Didn't you see a lot of single ladies out there for you to choose from and marry? Is someone else's wife that you want? What makes you think that she wouldn't go back to her ex-husband again?I don't want all that unnecessary drama for you, my son." Mrs. Kali didn't mind if Jessica was there with them or not before she could speak her mind."But Mom, I love Jessica. Why can't you understand how I feel?" Stephen asked sadly, as he could see Jessica also looked sad."No, Stephen, you cannot marry Jessica, and that is final. It's okay if you don't want the young woman that I have arranged for you, but you cannot marry Jessica, and that's final.""It's okay, Stephen. Don't make it hard for any of us; I will leave now. Come take me home," Jessica told Stephen, as she could see his mother staring at her with disgust.The elderly woman
Jessica hasn't been herself since she went to see Stephen's family and met with his mother. She wants to return his ring back to him, so she took it off and kept it in her bed drawer, thinking of how she would explain to him that their affair wasn't going to work.She heard a knock on her room door, which startled her out of her trance. Walking up to pull the door open, she noticed it was a bright Monday morning. Jessica saw Nina standing there with a sullen face, and she asked Nina, "What's wrong?""Mom, when are we going home to meet Daddy?"Jessica was stunned at her young daughter's question. She was grateful that neither Remy nor Rex was in the sitting room to hear Nina ask about Dylan."Not today, Nina. Your daddy still has a lot of work to do. And when he is through, we will go to his house, okay?""Okay, Mom. I want noodles instead of tea this morning," Nina said, as she knew the mansion had a menu of what they must eat daily. Since she is always at home too, Nina has taken her
Rex laughed out, "Hahaha, sister. You are getting me confused. How do you mean she is Dylan's new wife? I don't know who Dylan's new wife is, and Dylan hasn't posted any new woman as his wife aside from you.""Don't tell me all that, Rex. Dylan brought this short woman into our home, and it was mainly because of her affairs with Dylan, with him kissing her in my presence, that made me leave the house, even without signing the divorce papers," Jessica said.Rex hummed, "Hmm."He was rendered speechless as his fist clenched and replied, "At first, Frederick told me that this lady was his sister, and later he said that they were only brother and sister in church and not real siblings. Now I’m seeing that they already have a son together, and the boy looks so much like Frederick. So how come she's Dylan's new wife? Maybe she is just a lady Dylan happened to date before, and they had a fling that didn't last, while you are here thinking that she's in a relationship with Dylan or his new wif
Dylan was at home as he hadn't been going to his company lately, especially now that he had lost a lot of partners and top clients that usually patronized his company before.He saw that most of them had started patronizing Frederick and other top companies, and he couldn't even ask Frederick for help despite knowing that he had also helped Frederick before in the past when Rosie lied to him about the two of them being siblings.Dylan didn't want to see Frederick and knew that it was his own mistake in sending his wife away, as that was the day he allowed the devil to use him and also brought the devil into his home.He was rendered useless and couldn't face the shame that he now felt. He sold all his cars, leaving just one car, yet it was not enough to meet the huge amount that was debited from his company funds.Though it helped his company to bounce back a little, some were thinking that he was no longer serious and now wanted to sell his company, but he didn't put up his company fo
Dylan sighed and watched the video again.He said, "Indeed, it is Rosie, but I never did anything wrong to her. Why will she do this? Why will she record us? Why will she want to ruin me even after I had chosen her over my wife? It's alright, let's just watch and see how it goes. I don't know her house address nor her family's house either, as she never took me there even once. She kept on giving me excuses, and more likely I think I know her reason now. Let her go on and post it; I am okay with it and will bear the loss of it too. Take care, Bright, I have to leave now."Dylan snatched his briefcase away from his office desk and left his office. As he went outside, he got into his car and drove home.Bright's rage boiled hot, and he knew that Dylan didn't have the heart to charge Rosie in court.Bright sighed, "Hmm..."He finally left Dylan's office as he was usually the last man to leave the company for home, locking up all the doors before going lastly to his house.****Dylan arriv
Rosie couldn't do anything and she awaited the result of Frederick having his revenge on Dylan.She didn't speak to Frederick about it again as she knew that Frederick was ungrateful. If not, he should have been thanking Dylan for making him a billionaire now and, if possible, offered to help Dylan too for the help that he rendered to him before and make Dylan bounce back. Instead, Frederick wanted to ruin Dylan completely.Rosie stopped crying and went downstairs to have something to eat after Frederick finally left their house and went to his office.She knew that he was still cheating on her, but she had always turned a blind eye to it, so why should she care now?Rosie sighed and decided to bond with her son after his nanny was through bathing him and dressing him up, as he could walk around and talk a little.****Dylan awaited the anonymous person to release his nude. He knew that Rosie was behind it, but he didn't have the time to involve the police in the case again.He didn't
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. Please forgive me for lying about my family," Sharon cried harder, afraid Remy might divorce her.Remy shook his head, having thought Frederick was just Rex's friend. Rex had been the one who invited Frederick.He knew when Rex cut ties with Frederick and told hi
Rosie stared at her phone screen in silence, even though the call with Jessica had long ended.She sighed, knowing she couldn't have an affair with Dylan again.She didn't want to be arrested, so she sadly continued with her office work for the day.She lost interest in checking her office records on the computer to see the new goods and products they were lacking. Moreover, she still had to check the pending requests from new companies wanting her to sell their products.Rosie couldn't believe she had to beg Dylan for a partnership when many other top brands also wanted to partner with her.She lost interest in her office work for the day. She switched off her computer and her phone, then finally went home, even though her mall hadn't closed.When she arrived home, she found only Frederick in the living room, as her daughter was sleeping peacefully on the couch, and Richard wasn't there with Frederick and Fiona.Rosie didn't stop to greet Frederick and went straight upstairs to her ro
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. He bought a new mansion and finally moved out of their family house. But I don't mind living in the family house with the parents. So we are all fine.""Okay, sister. I just hope you can still talk to them about me. But if you can't, it's okay. I don't want to cause any problems in your happy marriage. I'm glad you visited me today, and I promise not to go back to my sinful ways," Frederick assured his younger
Rosie stared at Frederick, expecting him to question her about whom she was speaking with. Instead, Frederick went to get his small bag of clothes that he had brought home.Rosie wondered where he got the clothes from and the things he was wearing, as she knew that his old house had been sold, and she was sure he hadn't taken anything from the mansion.Frederick told her, "I will be using the guest room downstairs so I can be closer to our kids and spend some time with them. 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
Jessica had finished preparing breakfast for her children. Caleb, Nina, and Godsent were still in boarding school, while she had only Precious and Blessing at home with her and Dylan.After preparing breakfast for her two kids, who were four years old, she proceeded to make Dylan's tea, knowing he would soon be leaving for the office.Jessica knew that Dylan had to drop the kids off at school before going to his office. Since they reunited as a happy family, he had learned to share household chores with her instead of leaving all the work to her alone.After brewing Dylan’s tea the way he liked it, she took his phone, which she had confiscated the previous night, and gave him her small phone to use while he was asleep.They had gone to bed early the previous night after an intense make-out session.Jessica smiled in the kitchen, wearing a long, transparent white gown. She carried the tray with all the breakfast items to the dining table to serve it.Lady Tara had finished bathing Preci
Rosie left the guestroom where she had stayed to answer Dylan's call. When she stepped into the living room, she found only Frederick there, as her two kids were no longer with him.Rosie immediately asked Frederick, “Where are Richard and Fiona, Fred?”“I took them to their rooms to sleep since it's already late,” Frederick answered, and Rosie frowned.She asked him, “How did you already know my kids' rooms? 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. I have equal rights to everything you have, including this house," Frederick said.“No, Fred! I'll get another set of divorce papers ready tomorrow, and you need to be prepared to sign them,” Rosie sneered, and Frederick caught her left wrist before she could walk away from him.He pulled her back to his chest and asked, “Why? Is it because of Dylan again? Why was he calling you?"Rosie pulled her left hand away from Frederick's h
Jessica pushed the bedroom door open and saw Dylan sweating in the room as he sat on a blue chair.She immediately asked him, "Babe, so you're now dating Rosie again, right?""No, Jessica... 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. He took out his phone from his robe pocket and played the entire voice recording of his phone conversation with Rosie for Jessica to listen to.Dylan had learned to always record all his calls for quality assurance purposes and to avoid anyone accusing him
Rosie's face burned red with anger as she watched Frederick stubbornly walk away from her and into her house with Richard and Fiona.They happily went into the mansion with Frederick, and Rosie frowned, looking at the divorce papers on the floor that Frederick had torn to pieces.She frowned and thought about what she would do to get rid of him quickly. She ensured her car door was properly locked before marching to the mansion's entrance and storming into the living room to find him.Rosie met her two kids in the living room and asked them, “Where's your father?"Richard shuddered and looked back at his mother, startled by her sharp tone.He replied, “He’s gone upstairs to your room, Mom.”“Hmm. Wait here with your sister. I will be back downstairs to prepare our dinner.”Rosie knew that she didn't have any maids, so she proceeded to climb the living room stairs, having just acquired the duplex mansion.Her business had flourished, and she was doing well for herself. She didn't want t
Four years had passed swiftly, and Frederick Joseph finally got his release from police custody. He returned home and discovered that his mansion had been sold off to pay off all the debts he owed Dylan.Frederick didn't want to visit Rosie's shop, even though he got information from a friend about its location.Instead, he got the address to Rosie's house and waited for her to return home.It was already evening when Rosie closed her office. She had named her little daughter Fiona, while her son Richard had already grown into a seven-year-old boy, and Fiona was four years old.It's amazing how quickly time flies...Although Rosie knew that Frederick would soon be out of jail, she was not ready to see him.She arrived home in her new Toyota Camry car, a silver color, and saw the haggard-looking black man with long beards standing outside her mansion gate.Rosie immediately recognized him as her husband but wasn't ready to acknowledge him as the father to her two kids yet.But she was w
