2024-10-29 19:42:56"Calm down Lord grumpy, she is our new mommy," Harley told him, rolling her big eyes.
Hero still didn't understand what she meant, so he said. "What do you mean?"
Hardin sighs, and decided to put an end to his confusion. He wanted to see how Hero would react, whether he would also like their gold digger step mom, or hate her just like he does.
"She is dad's new wife, Jules Verne."
"What!" Hero yelled, making everyone on the table, tremble slightly.
"Dad is Hardin saying the truth? Is this dimwit, really your wife?"
"Watching it Hero, how dare you call her a dimwit? this should be the last time you call her something like that. You must show her respect as your stepmother," Mr. Scott reprimanded angrily.
"I will call her whatever I want dad. How can you tell me that she is your wife, when did you get married?"
"That's none of your business son. All you need to know is that she is my loving wife, and you must respect her, whether you like it or not."
Hero scoffed. "That will never happen, dad. I will never approve of her. Don't you see dad, I'm sure she married you because of money, or why else would a young lady like her marry you, an old man? she is just like all the other women, a gold digger, who wants nothing else but money."
"Brother, that is what I told dad, but he didn't listen to me," Hardin said, happy that someone was seeing things from his point of view.
Mr.Scott closed his eyes, trying to suppress his anger. He hated the fact that his sons were speaking ill of the innocent girl.
Harris on the other hand, immediately took Harley outside, to prevent her from seeing such a scene.
...
Jules glanced up to look at Hero and Hardin. They were both speaking ill of her like she wasn't there.
If it was not for the fact that she needed money, she wouldn't be here receiving such insults.
Mr.Scott saw her hurt expression and wanted to say something, but Jules stopped him by placing her hand on his.
"Leave it, I'll handle this myself," she tells him, rising to her feet.
"Look here you two. Whether I'm a gold digger or not, I don't think that's any of your business. And as for why I married you dad, or why he married me, it is also none of your business. Besides, it's his life and just like he has no right to make decisions for you, you also have no right to make decisions for him. Now the both of you had better get that into those empty brains of yours," she yelled out, before turning to Mr. Scott.
"Dear, I will take my leave now. I had promised Harley that I would take her to school, I don't want her to be late."
"It's fine angel, you can leave," Mr. Scott permitted. The reason he calls her an angel was that he saw her as one. She was the angel that was going to change his sons.
"Okay dear, take care of yourself while I'm away," Jules muttered, pecking his forehead before leaving.
As she walked away, six pairs of eyes watched her. Two in admiration, while the other four in anger.
"Brother, did you see how insolent she is? Just look at how she yelled at you, even though you are much older than her."
Hero clenched his fist after hearing that, and his anger shot up to an increasingly high level. Never before has anyone, or a woman for that matter, spoken to him like that.
"I'll make sure I teach you a lesson, or my name isn't Hero Scott," he thought before walking away in anger.
Mr. Scott watched him leave, and his lips curled up into a smirk. "You've finally met your match," he mumbled under his breath.
Hardin also turns to look at his father, before walking away.
Meanwhile, Harley paced around the house, throwing occasional glances at the door.
"Why isn't she coming out?" She yelled at her brother impatiently.
"How would I know that chubby?" Harris replied with an eye rolled, watching his little sister who was acting like an old woman.
"I said you should never call me that again," she glared at him.
"You also call Hero, Lord grumpy, so why can't I call you chubby?"
"Just keep quiet Harris, before I look for a horrible nickname for you too."
"Whatever chubby, I'm sure you won't find any because I'm too perfect."
"Don't flatter yourself Mr arrogant, you not all that handsome, I wonder what those girls see in you?"
"They see my perfection."
Harley rolled her eyes, shaking her head at her brother's statement. She just couldn't deal with him right now, because she had something else to worry about.
Just when she was about to say something, she was cut off by Jules.
"Princess," Jules called walking toward her. She crouch down to her size before saying "I'm sorry I kept you waiting."
"It's okay mommy, I'm glad you are here now," Harley replied with a smile, which Jules returned, before standing up.
"Come now Lily, let me take you to your school."
"Lily?" Harley repeated, giving Jules a confused look.
"Yes princess, I will call you Lily from now on," Jules told her and she beamed, turning over to her brother.
"Look, Mommy knows how to give a nickname unlike you."
"Whatever you say Harley, but you will always remain chubby to me," Harris replied, bursting into a fit of laughter, which angered Harley.
"Mommy, come let's go, I don't want to look at him, he's so annoying," she muttered, taking Jules's hands and pulling her away to an SUV that was parked, nearby.
"Bye Mrs. Scott, bye chubby," Harris yelled, before getting into his Lamborghini and driving away.
Jules and Harley also got into the SUV, and the driver drove away.
Immediately after they left, Hero walked out and watch as the SUV drove out of sight.
What even made him angry more was that his enemy was in the car with his little sister, whom he loved unconditionally.
...
As Jules and Harley, chatted happily on their way, Jules asked her what she liked.
"I love fashion, I also like the color pink and I like to eat spaghetti, chocolate, ice cream, cake, and other delicious snacks."
Jules chuckled at her reply, then she said. "Okay princess, since you like all those stuff, I will always make them for you. you know, I can bake very well."
"Really!" Harley squealed.
"Yes, Lily and from now on, I will also take you to school every day."
"Wow! Thank you, mommy," Harley said with tears in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Jules asked, concerned.
Harley sniffs, before saying "you know, I never imagined that I would have another mommy after my real mommy went to heaven, but I'm glad I do now, please don't ever leave me."
Jules's heart clenched, as the little girl said that. She started to feel guilty. She knew that after six months, her contract would be over and she would have to leave. But she still wiped Harley's tears and said, "Don't cry princess, even if a time comes when I'll have to leave, I promise I would always visit and we'd go out and have lots of fun together."
"Thank you, mommy," Harley replied, and just after, they arrived at her school.
"Come on mommy, it's time to show those bullies how pretty my new mommy is," Harley muttered, putting on her shades, before coming out of the car.
Jules also did the same, before coming out of the car, and together they made their way into the school premises, as the other students gawk at them.

Jules, shivered slightly at his tone of voice, then she said, "what's wrong with what I called you?""You have no right to call me that. you will address me as sir," Hero retorted, gritting his teeth."Okay, Sir grumpy," Jules said, teasingly, suppressing her laughter.Hero clenched his fist and gnashed his teeth, to suppress his anger. He felt a burning rage, as he glared daggers at Jules.Harley who was watching them suddenly remembered her favorite cartoon(Tom and Jerry), and her face lit up in excitement. "I might as well sit down and enjoy the show, Harley thought, before strolling to one of the couches.

They all stared at Mr. Harper like he had gone nuts. "Darling husband, I don't understand why you would ask me to work for him when he clearly doesn't like me?" Jules muttered, casting a curious glance at Mr.Harper."Yes dad, why would I work with this money monger? besides you have your own company, she should work for you instead," Hero muttered, gritting his teeth. he couldn't imagine himself working beside her, having to see her face every day. yikes! he thought, wrinkling his face in displeasure.A mischievous smile crossed Mr.Harper's lips and he said inwardly, "it's because I want you two to become closer."Clearing his throat, Mr. Harper said, "I don't want her to work for me because, she's my wife and people might say I'm giving her special treatment, even when I'm not. That's why I suggest, she works for you instead."Hero scoffed, rolling his eyes. "Dad, I don't want to work with someone like her, I just can't."Jules also rolled her eyes, then she said, "it's not like I w

Mr.Harper," Jules called."Yes yes," he answered immediately, sighing in relief."I agree to work for Hero."Mr.Harper almost jumped up in excitement but restrained himself."Thank you, Miss Verne," he muttered....The next day Jules had to wake up early to prepare for work.Knowing who Hero was, she knew he would not take it lightly with her even if she makes the slightest mistake. she also didn't want to give him more reasons to say mean things about her.After brushing her teeth, and taking a shower, Jules wore a white long sleeve shirt, and neatly ironed black trousers to go, tucking the shirt inside her pant. she also packs her hair in a ponytail, applying only lip gloss, then she put on a two inches heels to go. She didn't want anything that will disturb her, more than the fact that she is going to work in the lion's den.Walking down the stairs, Jules noticed that, there was no one in the living room, "Are they still asleep?" She thought, twirling in the direction of Harley's

Jules was gobsmacked and glared at him in anger."Why should I get out?" she yelled.Hero scoffed, matching her glare. "It's my car, I decide who I want and who I don't want in it.""But you told your dad and Harley that, you would take me to the office.""Yes, I did, but I lied back then."You..."Don't say another word, Just get out," Hero said, cutting her off.Jules ignored him. "I won't get out," she said defiantly.Hero clenched his fist in anger, then he opened his door, walked to the other side of the car where Jules sat, and opened it.Jules immediately tried to move to the other side but he caught her, pulling her out of the car.Jules shrieked, as she landed right on the floor. "You vile man," she cried out, pointing at him, but Hero ignored her, going back into the car."You can go," he told the chauffeur, who watched everything from the rear-view mirror and sighed in pity.

Jules sat in front of Hero's door fast asleep... After waiting for over twenty minutes, for Hero to tell her to come in, Jules decided to sit in front of his door but dozed off...Hero stared at the woman in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "How can this woman, sleep at this hour?" He thought.Luckily Jules was leaning on the wall close to the door, or she would have crashed into the fall, once he opened the door.Hero's lip curled up into a smirk as he thought of a way to wake her up from her slumber. He hastily went back into his office, grabbed a bottle of water, and returned to where Jules was."This is payback for what you did to me the other night," Hero mumbled, spewing the water on her.Jules jerked up immediately. "Where am I, and why is it raining heavily?" she mumbled, dabbing the water off her face.Hero scoffed, rolling his eyes. He couldn't believe that his father had married such a fool. What did he even see in her? "Stand up you fool, how can you sl

When Jules arrived at the ground fall, the elevator beeped and she slowly walked out, due to the weight of the file she was carrying, and to avoid falling."Let me help you," someone said, taking part of the files from her. Jules glanced up to see a tall lean man with blond hair(Bryan), looking at her like she was some kind of goddess. Not just him, some of the workers who worked on the ground floor, also stopped what they were doing, and stared at her in amusement. some even took a quick picture of her to post in the group chat."Wow! The devil has a hot, beautiful, and young stepmom. If I were him, I'd be happy," Bryan thought.Jules cast him a grateful smile, but her smile disappeared when she saw the way he was looking at her. She also noticed that he was not the only one, but everyone else."What happened? Why are they staring at me, is there something on my face?"

Then she took out her iPhone and sent a text message to Emelia. Although she knew that what she was doing was cliche and immature, she didn't care as long as she achieved her goal. On the other hand, Jules was just about to walk out of her room when she got a text message. "Come to my room, and make sure you bring Hero along."Jules stare at the message in confusion, mulling over why would Emelia would text her with a hidden number.

Jules shrieked in horror and instantly moved away from the package.'Why didn't I think of that? What if a bomb is really in there? I could have died just now,' she mulled over, before going to stand behind Hero, likewise Bryan."Mr.Scott the package is meant for you, so you should open it," As she was short, she had to stand on her tiptoe to whisper it in his ears.Hero glanced at the woman, who was holding onto with a slight hint of amusement in his eyes, before tilting his gaze in the direction of the package.He eyed the package for a while before saying, "Bryan you should open it."Bryan gasped.

Bryan let out a deep breath and retorted. "I already did that boss.""So did you find out who was behind it?" Hero inquired with keen interest."Actually boss, the person goes by the name Mr.Macaroni and he's anonymous. No picture or information about the person.

I wonder who that is' Hero mulled, before saying "When is then meeting?""It's in five minutes time boss." Hero nodded. "Let's go," he told Bryan, before walking ahead.

Sasha walked up to Emelia who sat in the garden as she had nothing to do."Ma'am Emily, don't you feel bored sitting here all by yourself? I should keep you company," Sasha said, calmly.

"Hero, the truth is that I...Jules paused for a while after saying that and glanced up to meet his gaze."You give me your word that if I tell you the truth, you won't tell the family about what happened between us," she whispered, although he could still hear her. Hero sighs impatiently before saying with gritted teeth "I give you my word."Jules then stood on her tiptoe and whispered into his ears. "I wonder why you want to know if I'm married to your dad? Is it because you like me...anyway the truth is that I'm married to your dad."Immediately after she said that the door swung open revealing Sasha. "What the hell is going on here?" She yelled, and Jules hastily pulled away from Hero. Sasha's lips curve into a smirk, and she moved closer to them and asked mockingly. "Did I interrupt something?" "You didn't.

"Lady Scott is it true?" Sasha directed her question at Emelia, who sighed and wanted to speak up, however, Mr.Harper chipped in instead."Miss Sasha, It's our family matter, I don't think it concerns you," He said to her, earning a surprised look from everyone except Jules.They had expected him to tell Sasha that yes Jules was his wife, nonetheless, it was the other way around.Meanwhile, Sasha said nothing but she felt embarrassed and disappointed.

Jules and Harley swiveled in the direction to see Harris standing there, with a look of horror plastered all over his face.He silently prayed that Harley was not talking about the same Sasha he knew.On the other hand, Jules felt pity for him, but at the same time, she found his expression funny. While Harley knitted her brow in confusion and repeated. "Yes, Sasha!""How do you know her?" She went further to ask. From the look on her brother's face, Harley couldn't help but feel as if Harris knew the Sasha she was talking about...Meanwhile, Harris snapped out of his thoughts.

Emelia let out a burst of sheepish laughter, as she didn't know how to answer her son. There's no way she would tell him that the woman standing in front of him was his prospective bride and she was going to be living with them. She knew that he would be furious and never agree to it and she didn't want him to send Sasha away as she and Peggy have been long-time friends.Avoiding his gaze, Emelia said, "Uhm...you see, Sasha here is Peggy's daughter.""I already know that mother. What I want to know is what she's doing here...that too with her luggage?" Mr.Harper asked suspiciously.Emelia sighed as she didn't know what to say. She was lost for words and excuses.

Although she couldn't really make out everything he was saying, she still heard something like last night, and Jules, making her tremble slightly.Could Hero have told his father about last night? She pondered. And at that moment, both Hero and Mr.Harper whirled in her direction.Feeling guilty and scared at the same time, Jules didn't know what came over her, and she started to babble. "It's not what you think, I didn't mean to do it," she tells Mr.Harper while picking on her nails. She didn't want the same man who respected her even though she was younger than he was to see her as a vile person. Mr.Harper, however, knitted his eyebrow in question "What do you mean, dear?" He inquired, feeling confused. On the other hand, Hero's lips instantly curved into a smirk as he understood what Jules meant.'Such a fool! She thinks I told dad that she molested me. Why would I do that when nothing really happened?' He mulled, staring at Jules in amazement. He couldn't believe that she was so
