CHAPTER 15

last update Last Updated: 2024-08-20 23:06:03
Amelia Jackson;

I wasn't happy with my father's request for me to let the matter lie low to avoid dragging our family name into the mud.

For Christ's sake, I was the one who was supposed to marry Frank, not that ugly, short dwarf.

Well, my sister isn't a dwarf. She's just short and about my shoulder height, but she's beautiful. She's a stunning brown-skinned woman, and I hadn't seen anyone as pretty as her, even in her loose-fitting clothes.

Natalie has dimples on her chubby cheeks. She has long hair and brown sparkling eyes. She's just charming, and I was irritated that night when I saw Frank looking at her.

I thought of it as an opportunity to set Natalie up with any available man at my father's event, but I didn’t expect the man to be Frank.

There were many guests present, and at the table where Natalie sat alone in her red dress, drinking from her glass, I had the entire bottle of drink spiked with a sex pill, hoping to catch her and her companion in the act.

However, the moment I

    Amelia Jackson. "What do you want?" I asked James as I allowed him to enter my room. He smiled and moved away from the door as I stood beside it and looked at him. "How are you doing? Did you go to see Natalie at the police station?" He asked me. "No. Why should I?" I inquired, just as I wrapped my hands around my chest and looked at him. "Amelia, I know that you and Natalie have been having issues, but she's your sister and..." I cut James off, not caring that he's my oldest brother. "Don't give me that crap, James! Natalie isn't my sister. The daughter of a prostitute, no way! If she wasn't born or a part of this family in any way, I should have been Frank's wife. I hate that bitch, and don't you dare speak to me about Amelia." James slapped me on my left cheek, taking me by surprise as my left hand flew to my cheek, and I looked at him with tears-filled eyes. "Don't you dare call Natalie a bitch again, Amelia. What has gotten wrong with you? You told us yesterday tha

    Natalie Jackson! I was preparing to sleep in the police cell unit that I was kept in after I finished eating the meal that Franklin had brought. His reaction surprised me because I hadn't expected him to be so possessive. I still wanted to divorce him, so I tried not to think too deeply about his public reaction. I believe Franklin was trying to protect his public image. As the CEO of HW Global, it’s important for him to back me up, knowing that once the matter gets to court, he would be dragged into the mess that he and Amelia had started. A policeman came to my cell unit and ordered me to come out. "You have been granted bail. You can go home," he said, taking me by surprise. "Excuse me, officer. Who granted me bail? I was informed that I would be going to jail this morning," I told him and saw the man's brows furrow. "Do you prefer to sleep in this cell, Madam? I just informed you that you're free to go, and you're asking me questions," he scolded me. I smiled as I walked out

    Natalie Jackson. I wanted to stop the security man from calling Frank, so I quickly said, "No, don't call him. Are you insinuating that I'm lying to you about my husband? Open the gate, I'm going out now." I grabbed my box and left the mansion grounds, not waiting for the security man to contact Frank. I knew that Frank wouldn't allow me to leave his house. As I walked onto the estate street, the cold weather made me shiver. I wrapped the shirt I was wearing properly around me and wondered which hotel I could lodge in for tonight until I managed to rent an affordable apartment. I thought about the fact that I didn't even have friends because I was mostly indoors, watching movies. I didn't have the time to relate with anyone except for the people I usually purchased groceries from at the market. Sighing, I dragged my box along with me, walking up to the estate gate. It was already night and getting a taxi to take me to my destination wasn't easy, so I kept on walking, hoping that a

    Franklin Howard. I immediately drove my car ahead and parked in front of the woman. I got out of my car as I wasn’t mistaken. This short woman was my wife, or maybe her ghost or replica. I had to confirm, as the worst scenario would be if my wife could now disappear from the station and appear around my estate. As the woman saw me approaching her, she quickly looked away, and I was shocked to see my wife in a black dress with my blue shirt around her shoulders. "Natalie, how did you get out of the police station? What are you doing here with your box of clothes and wearing these clothes?" I asked her as I neared her and grabbed her shoulder to ensure she was indeed my wife and not a ghost. "Get your hands away from me, Frank. We will proceed with the divorce. Isn’t that what you want? I’m leaving your house, and that’s just it. You can go home. I am only waiting to get a taxi or a good Samaritan to take me to any hotel," she said, shoving my hands away from her shoulder and looking

    Natalie Jackson; As I was famished, I went back to the kitchen to prepare the food I wanted to eat. Warming it up, I took the lunch box with me and unlocked it. I could hear the sound of Franklin shutting the living room door. Frank came into the kitchen to meet me, and he went on apologizing, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to accuse you in the first place." I ignored Frank as my focus was on warming the food that I had set on the fire in one of my cooking pots. "Natalie," Frank called my name as he tried to approach me, but I turned to face him and warned him. "Frank, please move away from me. I understand that you're sorry, but we cannot continue living together in this house and pretending that all is fine between us. You went out to hang out with my half-sister, knowing full well that Amelia and I don't have a good relationship. What were you expecting when you knew that she wanted you?" I looked at Frank's handsome face as I queried him. I wasn't going to give him that ch

    Natalie Jackson; A part of me didn't want my husband to starve, but not when charges of attempted murder were pressed against me. I kept my plate in the kitchen, washed it, and thankfully, Frank didn't return to the kitchen to meet me. I was sad, not knowing if I could succeed in divorcing Frank. We had been living together. He had been feeding me and providing for me with money. But he doesn't love me. When I had hoped to become married, I wanted someone who would love me genuinely and make me experience that happy home. It was why I did everything humanly possible to be a good wife to Franklin Howard, but he was quick to take my elder sister's side and toss me aside for her. He hit me because of Amelia. In her presence, there was no way I would sit back and continue with the marriage. Frank is only pretending and wanting me to forgive him. It still surprised me to hear him refer to me as babe. No one knows that I'm Franklin's wife. He never posted about us and warned me never t

    Natalie Jackson. "No!" I immediately pulled away from the kiss and moved away from Frank, looking away from him. "Just leave, I want to sleep here," I said, walking up to the bed in the room and adjusting it. Frank took a step closer to meet me, but as he wanted to plead with me again. I told him, "It's late and I'm stressed for tonight. Besides, you will need more of your energy for your office tomorrow." I moved away from where I stood and walked up to the bed to arrange it. I had arranged the room before, as it was my house and I was the one cleaning up the whole house. Taking off the old sheet, I spread a new one and went to my box to pull out a nightdress. Frank still stood in the room as he watched me undress. I decided to give him a show as I wasn't ready to sleep with him so easily. Not after he had tortured me. I pulled off my old dress and wore the new nightdress, then went to the bathroom to take a bath and I went to the bed and laid on it. As the room light was s

    Natalie Jackson. "What happened is in the past now. I don't have time to answer any questions except that you three are here to rearrest me again," I said, while James frowned. "Natalie, we are your brothers. Irrespective of the fact that we know Amelia desires to be with Franklin, it didn't occur to us that was her true motive for coming to see you. We sincerely apologize to you on Amelia's behalf and for how we have treated you all these past years," James said, moving closer to meet me. But I could see in Asher's eyes that he doesn't like me. "No, no," I replied with a shake of my head, "You all don't have to act like you care about me. Kindly move on with your lives as I'm not your sister. Also, I do not care if Amelia and Frank are going to wed tomorrow. I have accepted to divorce Frank, and you guys should let me be." I moved into the kitchen, shutting the door heavily behind me, and I heard their conversations in our living room. "Natalie is still angry with us and think

    Michael's Voice:Standing in the meeting hall, I peered out at the parking lot and saw Paul arriving at my hotel.I had already made it clear to him the previous night not to chase after Amelia. She was the mother of my child, and I didn't want her going after him. For some unknown reason, I had been uncomfortable since Paul returned, knowing that he desired to marry Amelia.It made me angry, and I knew that if I did not act quickly, then Paul would beat me to it and rush to make his intentions known to Amelia's parents, as he was so serious about her.I knew that if such a thing happened, I would have already lost my chances with her, as her parents wouldn't listen to me and would be ready to give her up to Paul to marry her.Paul Kingston is a good guy and a popular attorney in the States.My fists clenched, and I swiftly wrapped up the business meeting, as well as discussions about my parents’ reunion.We wrapped up at six, and I asked Asher about his dad, as I would like to see hi

    Amelia's POV,I smiled, meeting Paul's curious gaze, and told him, "I don't know, but Michael made it clear that he wouldn't marry me. Maybe he is just joking with you.""I'm not joking, Amelia. I want you to make it clear to me that if my cousin comes to ask for your hand in marriage, will you accept him?" Paul repeated, and I lowered my gaze, avoiding his."I don't know. I have always wanted a complete family, and if Michael is serious, then I wouldn't accept you. I'm sorry," I said to Paul as I raised my head and looked at his handsome face. I saw the look of hurt flash in his eyes."So, aside from using your son as an excuse, why would you want to settle for a man who doesn't really love you but wants your sister?" Paul asked, and I was quiet.Well, I guessed it was my punishment for hurting my half-sister so much. But a part of me wished Michael weren't so cold towards me. Learning that he was a reserved guy like Michael and my brothers and not a playboy was part of what had draw

    Amelia's POV.I exited the hotel building and saw Paul standing beside his car, waiting for me."Good evening, Paul," I greeted him with a smile as he stood by his car. He smiled and replied, "Well done, Amy. How was your day today?"Paul wore a crisp white shirt, black trousers, and shoes. He looked handsome and didn't seem to have changed in his looks or his smile, even after it had been long since I last saw him."My day was fine; and yours? You shouldn't have come here to pick me up," I told him, and he nodded with a smile, still standing beside his car in the hotel's parking lot and looking at me."You're right. But I couldn't help but desire to see your pretty face. Can we go now? I want us to visit somewhere special and reminisce about old times since we haven't seen each other in a while," he asked me in a gentle voice like a perfect gentleman.I blushed and replied, "Alright." I looked back at the hotel's magnificent building and got back into my car.I then drove off to anot

    Amelia's POV:I continued the rest of the day working at my counter and attending to the hotel’s new visitors.My job was to collect their payments while the staff assisted the guests in finding what they wanted and showing them to various sections of the hotel: the rooms, the restaurant, and the event center.The hotel was a luxury hotel, and I don't regret picking this job. It gives me a view of all the drama that unfolds and the top-notch guests that arrive.I saw when Michael came in; he cast a glance my way but immediately looked away."What's going on between you and the boss?" Ivory asked me, and I sighed, not wanting to tell her about my affair with Michael.While most of them were aware that Michael had a child out of wedlock, they knew he was still single because he only posted my son on his social media profile. In short, he used my baby as his display picture, and he didn't even have to ask me to send photos of Almond to him. He would save any picture he liked from my page

    AMELIA JACKSON:I awoke in my room and saw my son awake on the bed, playing with his toy.Meeting his gaze that looked like Michael's made me smile. Though Almond was fair-skinned like me, he was Michael's carbon copy.I smiled, getting off the bed as I remembered the kiss that Michael had given me. I set off to leave for work. Although I recalled Felix's refusal about me working in a hotel, I knew my three overprotective brothers would have dug out the name of the hotel I worked for. So I avoided leaving my bedroom the previous night and stayed in my room with my son, having dinner with him.Getting off the bed, I went to prepare my bath and to bathe my son as I was in a good mood. Sometimes I bathe him, and other times I allow Nancy to do it.As I prepared to bathe Almond first and help him strip off his clothes, Lady Nancy arrived with a smile, and I greeted her, "Good morning, Ma."She donned a white top and black skirt, and she replied with a smile, "Morning, Amelia.

    FRANKLIN POV:I got a call from Wesley regarding the man that Chris hired to attack me upon learning that I was in the hospital with Natalie. It raised my suspicions about what had gotten into Chris.I quickly swung into action and had the man arrested as soon as I left the hospital room where Natalie and her mother were, as the police came in time and whisked the man away.Being worried about my wife and twins' safety, I requested extra security personnel to privately safeguard them, as I hadn't hired bouncers before to look after me. Most families living around here were rich, so there was no point in my walking around with bodyguards. But right now, I couldn't take that risk.As I exited the hospital grounds and went to my car, I called Chris directly on the phone and cautioned him, "Chris, what games are you trying to play with me?"Chris was silent on the line and pretended not to know."What are you talking about, brother?" he asked jokingly, and I told him, "You will find out s

    AMELIA JACKSON:"You sent for me, sir?" I asked Micheal, emphasizing "sir" so that he would understand why he summoned me."Yes. I did. What relationship did you have with my cousin?" He bluntly asked me, and I looked taken aback."Your cousin? Well, he is my ex, so that makes us familiar," I replied. Micheal rose from his office chair as he walked out to meet me.His office was extremely spacious and painted in white, similar to Franklin's office. I think they had the same taste, as Micheal's home seemed similar to Franklin's too."Familiar enough that you would have to kiss him? Is that how horny you are, Amelia?" Micheal reached for me and grasped my arms, but I shrugged him off."What's wrong with you? You shouldn't be concerned about whether I'm into his cousin or not. You don't want me, so stay away from my affairs." I wanted to leave, but Micheal caught me and pulled me closer to him. Before I could react and push him off, he sealed his lips on mine and kissed me hungrily."Mmm

    MICHEAL AUSTIN:"You sent for me, sir?" my assistant asked; he was a 30-year-old man."Yes, I did. Who is in charge of employment, and why is Amelia here?" I glared at him, and he looked at me in shock and asked, "Amelia? I don't know who she is, sir.""Really? Who employed the staff today?" I asked him, and he said, "The human resources management, sir.""Get the staff here. Anyway, it's okay. You can leave," I dismissed him, knowing that my hotel has a way of employing highly trained staff to avoid any misconduct and theft.He looked at me and bowed. "Alright, sir."Once my assistant left my office, I picked up my phone and contacted Amelia's number directly. We had to finish this conversation, and I needed to know why she was here.I was angry, especially after seeing Paul kiss her."Hello," Amelia picked up my call, and I had almost thought that she wouldn't."Hello, Mike," she said, sounding nervous, and I told her, "Come to my office right away.""Your office? Where is it?" Amel

    MICHEAL AUSTIN:I was on a phone call with Paul when I came out of the hotel to welcome him. Paul was a top attorney abroad, and he came back for my parents' reunion. Well, we were cousins, and I hadn't expected that he knew Amelia. When I came out to welcome him upon his arrival, I was taken aback to see how Paul swiftly caught Amelia by her right arm and pulled her back to his masculine chest. Before I could react and move to separate them, Paul sealed his lips on Amelia's and kissed her hungrily.My anger boiled upon seeing the way he kissed Amelia. As far as I wasn't in love with Amelia, I had studied the type of person she was. I thought she was the type of lady who threw herself at men because she had forced me to sleep with her. I found out that she hadn't been in any relationship since she returned from school abroad. I tried to mask my anger upon seeing my cousin and Amelia kiss. However, I couldn't even mask it, even as Paul greeted me.I was furious to see that Amelia
