Michael Austin;

I was so excited when Steven called me and informed me that Natalie was here to see me.

She came for real! I giggled and went back upstairs to my room to change clothes. I didn't want to scare her as I was in a bathrobe. So I wore a white top and black trousers with my black leather slippers. I got out of my room and rushed downstairs to welcome Natalie.

"Hello, welcome to my home," I said, smiling at her as I pulled the door open for her.

"Thank you, Michael," Natalie looked nervous and hesitant to enter my house.

"May I come in?" she asked, and I responded, "Sure."

She smiled and entered the room.

"So, tell me. How are you feeling now? I don't want to waste much time here as I would like to head to the market," she said, and I recalled that I also wanted to go to the nearby store and shop for groceries.

My kitchen was empty, and because I had been thinking about her, I didn't make time to cook.

"That's fine. I can escort you to the market. I wanted to go shopping too

    Natalie Jackson:I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Amelia shout that she had sex with Michael.Were they dating? I was stupefied as I looked from Amelia, who left us angrily, to Michael, who looked so ashamed of himself and embarrassed."It's not what you think. I honestly didn't want to do anything with her, but she just forced herself on me," Michael tried to clear the air as he knew that I would believe Amelia. After all, she was my sister, and she mostly bragged about everything she had and what she didn't have because of me."It's okay, Michael. You shouldn't blame her for saying that. Maybe she truly likes you," I said, and Michael's eyes narrowed in anger."I made the worst mistake by falling for her, and it was because I wanted to get your number," he confessed, and I was more speechless."I am sorry. I just didn't want you bothering me when I was with Franklin. He might misunderstand everything, and I didn't want him to lose his trust in me. Franklin even confessed to s

    Natalie's POV:After we finished our dinner in the kitchen, Franklin rose from his chair and said, "I am going upstairs to have my bath, babe. Please do not try to contact Michael again or see him behind my back." He looked at me, and I replied, "Okay."I was relieved that Franklin wasn't angry with me as I watched him exit the kitchen. He walked out, and I washed all the plates in the kitchen sink. After that, I dried my hands and went upstairs to my bedroom to have my bath. As I walked into my room, my phone rang, and I picked it up to see who the caller was.I hadn't unblocked my three brothers even though my father asked me to. I didn't want to speak to any of them, and I saw that Michael was the one calling me. I was nervous to answer his call, knowing that Franklin could come into my room at any time. It would be absurd of me to lock the door just to speak with Michael on the call. At last, I answered Michael's call, wanting to be quick about it."Hello," I said, and Michael ask

    Natalie's POV:"Mom, Franklin and I are on good terms now. Although, I'm unsure if I can ask him for money," I said to my mother, and she was silent."I do not want to hear all that, Natalie. You are my only child, and I want you to give me grandchildren," my mother said, and my brows furrowed.I couldn't believe she was pestering me to give her grandchildren when she wasn't even interested in getting married at my age. She was enjoying her life and even tried to abort me. Now, she wanted to force me through what she couldn't do."Mom, I am not God who gives children. And why didn't you get married? You could have given me more siblings other than Amelia and her brothers," I said, still nervous, wondering if Franklin hadn't finished his bath. Mom apologized to me, saying, "I am sorry, Natalie. I wish I was wise then. I had many men who proposed marriage to me even before your dad, but the thought of staying idle with one man and becoming his slave made me sick. I didn't want that. I w

    Franklin's POV. Seeing the excited look on my wife's face made me happy. I had never met her biological mother since we got married. I had heard a lot about her and certainly wanted to see the beautiful woman who had given birth to my wife. Feeling her soft lips pressed against my cheek as she pecked me in appreciation, I knew she was thrilled because I hadn't given her any personal money before, just money to restock the house with food. As Natalie and I finished having breakfast in my room, I took my phone and transferred 1 million dollars to her account. "Oh my goodness! Franklin, that's too much," she said when I showed her the transaction alert. I rose from my chair and walked over to meet her, softly pulling her blue dress away from her shoulder. "Nothing is too much for you, my love. I should have given you more than that," I told her. I kissed Natalie's neck warmly and carried her up in my arms. My bed wasn't far away, and despite Amelia sending me pictures and shor

    Natalie Jackson:I woke up and found myself sleeping peacefully on the bed alone, and Franklin wasn't beside me."Where did he go?" I asked myself as I rose from the bed and carefully got down. I was unclad, and my dress was still on the chair where Franklin had dropped it.I went to use his bathroom, glad that Franklin wasn't being hostile to me anymore. After having a quick bath, I got out, wrapped in a white towel that I borrowed from Franklin's bathroom, then I grabbed my blue dress and exited the room to pick up another piece of clothing in my room.My nostrils caught the scent of a delicious aroma like fish stew, and I wondered who was cooking around my home. We had other neighbors living in the exquisite estate, so I smiled and hurried into my room. I went into my closet and had to hurry up, and prepare lunch for Franklin and me, as I woke up late.It was past 3 p.m. when I awoke from my afternoon nap. I quickly darted into my closet, grabbed a white top and black skirt, donned

    Franklin Howard:"It's okay, Madam. How much is the money that you want? We can settle this amicably instead of dragging Natalie into it or having her follow you out of my house," I asked the woman who claimed to be my wife's mother.I couldn't believe my eyes. She looked so sophisticated, with sexy hips and big boobs like Natalie. Now I see where she got her beauty from.Natalie's mother was still beautiful, and you wouldn't believe she was the one who gave birth to my wife. Did she have Natalie at a young age?How old was she when she was dating Mr. Liam? I pondered but didn't dare to voice it out.Mrs. Silvia, as she called herself, looked me up and down and said, "No way. You have been treating my daughter unfairly. Don't you see that she looks older than me? You are not taking good care of her, and I want her to divorce you.""Mom!" Natalie shouted, and I tried to calm her down, not wanting her to get into any argument with her mother."It's okay, babe. She's your mother and dese

    Natalie's POV."Frank, you need to tell me how much you gave my mother," I asked my husband as he carried me upstairs in his arms, climbing the flight of stairs."It's just 1 million dollars. I don't want her to bother you about the said chief again," Franklin said as we arrived at my bedroom door, and I helped him unlock it.I pouted my pink lips, not happy, but I felt better knowing Franklin had paid my mother off. "Don't you think she will return to ask for more money?" I asked."No, I don't think so. Even if she does, I will still give her more money. I just want to make up for all those years I was hostile to you," Franklin said as he dropped me on the bed and climbed onto it. He towered above me, and I replied, "Okay.""So when are we packing our boxes?" I asked, and he smiled. "After I am done with you." Franklin sealed his lips on mine and kissed me passionately. We proceeded to make love in my room.Later that evening, I packed up my boxes as this would be the first time I wa

    Natalie's POV."How are you doing, Natalie?" Michael asked. I looked at him in his brown shirt and trousers and replied, "I am fine. I'm sorry I haven't called you since the last day we met.""It's alright. I understand that you're married to Franklin, and he's doing his best to prove himself worthy of you," Michael said, and I smiled.Franklin looked at us angrily from the front of the pharmacy in the hospital where he was collecting my supplements."How's your health now?" I asked Michael, and he sighed, "I am fine. Just came to do another test.""Test for what? Oops! I'm sorry if I'm trespassing," I told him, wondering what could be wrong with him."It's alright, Natalie. It's just a malaria test. I've been feeling sick from thinking too much and not taking care of myself. But I have employed someone to help, and I'm considering getting married soon," he said, and my eyes widened in shock, meeting his gaze too."Really? That's great news," I grinned, and Michael smiled back. "Thank

    **Natalie's POV**After I finished my bath, I dressed in a red top and black flared skirt, paired with my black sandals. I hurriedly grabbed my debit card and phone, placed them in my purse, and rushed to the market to buy all the ingredients I needed to prepare the delicious meal I wanted to take to the company for my husband.The market wasn't far, and luckily, I got a cab that took me there. I paid for both the ride there and back, returning home on time. I made a pot of yam and eggs since there was still time until lunch break.Franklin had already called me and told me he would be in a meeting when he asked if I was coming to his company. I smiled and told him yes after finishing cooking and seeing his missed calls. I was excited, so I wrapped up my arrangements, feeling eager to go to H.W. Global in my new car. However, since I hadn’t learned how to drive yet, I booked an Uber and recalled that Amelia had given me a birthday present the previous weekend. I hurried back to th

    Amelia's POVIt's been 6 weeks plus since I had an affair with Michael. Although I tried to reach out to him, he had blocked my number, clearly not interested in speaking with me.I couldn't forget our intimate night, and I thought of how to get his attention again.I had wanted to use my father, but it didn't work out, and I didn't want my brothers to get mad at me if they found out the truth that I was the one who had flung myself at Michael just because he wanted to get Natalie's number.I tried to reach out to Gloria, but she was totally avoiding me, and I didn't understand why.The last time I came across her salon, she sent me out and embarrassed me.I couldn't understand what I did to her, but I was determined to get her brother whether Gloria liked me or not.I came hovering around Franklin's office, wanting to ask him about Michael's company.Michael had placed tight security on me, not to let me into his house, and I knew he was still interested in Natalie.

    **Franklin Howard**I arrived at H.W. Global at 8 AM and went to my office on the third floor. I received the report for the press meeting that we had at noon, due to my one-month absence from the company.I had completely forgotten that Amelia still worked here, and seeing her hovering around my secretary's door, I frowned as she greeted me, smiling bashfully. I recalled that Natalie had told me Amelia was up to something mischievous, but I didn't care to know."Good morning, CEO Franklin," Amelia greeted me with a wide grin on her pretty fair face. She wore a white shirt, a black skirt, and silver shoes. Her blonde hair was let loose, and she looked beautiful."Morning. What do you want here?" I asked her, not smiling, as my secretary, Ms. Mary Elliott, rose from her chair and greeted me too. "Morning, sir.""Morning, Mary. Prepare the files for all the appointments I have today," I instructed her, noting she was dressed in the same style as Amelia."Okay, sir," Mary settled back

    **Natalie’s POV**I woke up the next morning and found myself still in bed. It was a bright Monday morning, and I knew that Franklin was finally going to work. The weekend had been splendid, and he had tried his best to make me feel better.As I carefully crawled out of the vast bed, the sound of water running in the bathroom caught my attention. I knew that Franklin was in there taking a bath, so I went to the closet to grab an outfit to wear.The time was past 7 AM, and my mind wandered back to the events of the weekend—Franklin getting me a new car on our return trip, and the fact that it was my birthday. He confessed his love for me and asked me not to leave him.I decided to stop worrying about anything else, including our inability to have a child. I believe that a child will come to us soon. So I carefully took a nightdress and put it on to go downstairs and prepare my husband’s breakfast like the good wife that I was.As I stepped out of the closet and got dressed, Franklin wa

    **Franklin's POV:**Inside Doctor Famous's office, I watched him examine my wife while asking her a few questions. His lab assistant came in and drew her blood into a test tube."When was the last time you saw your menstrual cycle?" he asked her after checking her body."This week," Natalie replied, her head lowered, and Dr. Famous smiled."It's alright. Everything will be fine," he assured her, but her face fell as she watched him finish his physical examination."Doctor, is it possible to be pregnant and menstruating at the same time?" Natalie asked, and he shrugged."In some cases, but it's a rare occurrence. You shouldn't worry about being pregnant, madam. Pregnancy comes on its own," he assured her, typing on his laptop, but Natalie wasn’t happy."Doctor, we should wait for the test report. I just want to find out if I am pregnant," she said, as if being pregnant were the only way to make me love her and not divorce her."You will. How about the last supplements I prescribed to y

    **Franklin Howard:**I wasn't pleased with the fact that Michael came to my house the previous night and brought a birthday present for my wife. Although Natalie told me it was nothing and that I should forgive Michael and be friends with him, I couldn't be friendly with a man who lusted after my wife. I was sure many other men in my position wouldn't want to get close to someone who openly gawked at their partner.Wesley arrived with the two women to take care of sweeping and mopping my mansion to make it look neat. It’s not like Natalie wasn't doing that before, but I decided to treat her right. Since I had the money to pay for the househelp, getting someone wasn’t a big deal. However, Natalie chose the two women.They finished sweeping the entire mansion, but when Natalie came to inform me that she wanted to go to the hospital to see Dr. Famous, I decided to follow her."Ma'am, you’re done with your job for today. My wife and I will be going out," I said to one of the two women, na

    **Natalie's POV.**It was nighttime, the weather had turned dark, and the estate road was deserted, with only a few passersby.As I stepped out of the gate, I saw Michael standing beside his car—a black car."Hi, good evening," I greeted him as I walked up gently to meet him."Evening, Natalie. Happy birthday to you," he replied, looking genuinely happy to see me as his dark eyes held mine. He wore a crisp white shirt and black trousers, paired with black sandals. He was also holding a white plastic bag as I approached him to accept his gift."I couldn't wait until tomorrow to present this to you. I saw the videos Franklin posted and knew you were back," he said as I reached him and accepted his gift."Thank you, but you shouldn't have stressed about coming here at this hour. It's getting late," I said, knowing the clock had passed 10 PM."I wouldn't mind coming here at 11 PM or midnight to present my gift to you. But I’m glad to see that Franklin is taking good care of you," he said,

    **Natalie's POV:**I immediately recoiled from Amelia’s hug, unable to suppress my irritation."Stand back," I said to her, then immediately looked at our father. "Good evening, Dad.""Natalie, how are you doing?" Dad asked, while Amelia frowned and moved back to meet our father."I am fine, Dad. Nice to see you both," I forced out my response, and Dad smiled at me."I am glad to see that Franklin is taking good care of you. It’s actually your birthday, and I told Amelia to join me in seeing you. We brought a present for you too," Dad said, waving over to the white plastic bag he was holding for Amelia to give to me.Amelia marched up to the center table and dropped the bag there. "Happy birthday to you, Natalie," she said, smiling, but I frowned, looking at her.*What does she want that made her look so happy?* I was lost in thought and didn't hear what my father said."Natalie, you should try to calm down so that you can conceive and give your husband children.

    **Natalie's POV**I jumped up in joy and rushed to unlock the car. "Are you serious, babe? Is this car really for me?" I asked my husband in disbelief, as I couldn't believe my ears."Yes. It's pretty—a brand-new Mercedes Benz GLC. It's all for you, my love," Franklin said, and I was so happy."Oh my goodness!" I rushed to envelope him in a tight, warm hug."Thank you so much, my sweetheart. I wasn't expecting this lovely present," I said to him, and he grinned."You don't have to thank me. Don't worry; I will get you more lovely presents, okay?" Franklin told me as he held me closer and sealed his lips on mine."Can I start the car?" I asked him as a wave of excitement washed over me. I was so happy, yet nervous. I hadn't been to a driving school, but I just wanted to sit my butt in the car and start it."Yes, you can. But don’t drive it. I’m sure you don’t have any driving experience," Franklin said, and I grinned.As I accepted the car key, I opened the car door and sat inside. Fra
