Michael's POV.

Standing in the meeting hall, I peered out at the parking lot and saw Paul arriving at my hotel.

I 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

    Micheal's POV:James and I walked into the living room and met his mother seated on the living couch. We greeted her, "Good evening, Ma."Lady Agnes Jackson looked from James to me, surprised; her face frowned, and she replied, "Welcome both of you. James, how was work today?""It was fine, Mom. I came home with Mike to see my father," James replied, and she nodded."That's fine. Your father will be back soon. You both can have a seat, and let me find out what the chef is preparing," Mrs. Agnes said, rising from her chair and moving to the kitchen.I sighed with relief, not expecting that would have been her reaction, because I thought she loathed me, and would yell at me, but the reverse was the case.I waited for Mr. Liam's arrival, and when he did, I rose from the couch with James and welcomed him, "Good evening, sir. Welcome home."Mr. Liam wore a black suit, and he looked at me in surprise and asked, "To what do I owe your lovely visit to my home, Mr. Austin Jr.?""Good evening,

    Amelia's POV:I was shocked when Micheal made that confession that I was special to him. I knew that he was saying all this now because of Paul. Why didn't he say them to me before? He wanted to ruin my chances with Paul so that I would end up single, chasing after him when I knew that he desired Natalie."It's you I want. I used to want your sister. But after she refused to divorce Franklin and made it clear to me that she cannot accept me, I took my time studying you and tried to understand your personality. It was difficult because you are not as bad as I thought," Micheal said, walking out of the dining chair to meet me."I'm sorry that I had you and desired someone else. Please give me a chance, okay? I know that I'm a difficult person, but I have come to realize you and accept you. Please." Micheal begged me, and I was dumbfounded.Was I dreaming? I pondered and let go of my box of clothes to drop on the floor. I looked at my family. My dad stood by the stairs, looking at us as

    Amelia's POV: "Yes," I replied to Felix and pulled the door open. I met his curious gaze and he asked, "What's going on between you and Michael? Have you agreed to marry him?" "No. I do not know yet," I replied, crossing my arms over my chest. "What do you think that I should do?" I asked, peering at Felix's face. He maintained a calculated gaze and replied, "It's up to you to know. I only came here to check on you and to know why Michael was here." "He was apologizing and saying that he wants me to marry him," I told Felix, and he scowled. "After embarrassing us. Well, I would have suggested that you don't accept him, but I know Dad will object. So let's wait until after his parents' reunion party," Felix told me, and I nodded and said, "Good night." Watching Felix exit my room, I carefully shut the door. As I moved over to the bed, I sat on it and pondered about my life for a while. Shortly after, I laid on the bed and succumbed to sleep. **** Natalie's POV: I was surprise

    Franklin's POV:I walked into the hospital room and met my wife, her mother, and likewise my babies, who were awake. "Good evening, honey," Natalie came to meet me and pecked me on my lips. She wore a green dress and black slippers as she was set to return home. "How are you and our babies doing?" I asked her, and she grinned. "They are fine. We are set to go home," she said, smiling as she had packed up her bag and our babies to return home. "Alright. I will be back; let me clear our discharge bill," I told her and greeted her mother again. "Good evening, in-law," I said to her, and she smiled as she wore a cream top and black skirt. You might think she was Natalie's older sister. "Welcome, in-law. How was office today?" she asked with a polite smile, and I replied, "Good."Later, I went to clear off my wife's discharge bill, and we set to head back home. I had already informed the head of the security men I hired that my wife and I were leaving, so their duty had come to an e

    Amelia's POV."It seems like your parents don't like me," Paul said as he drove ahead to Micheal's father's house."I don't think so. They are just surprised to see you for the first time," I said, even though I knew it was obvious that my parents didn't like him. He sighed and replied, "It's alright. I am not going to force them to change their mindset about me because they already know Micheal and would prefer him to me.""Mmm," I sighed, seeing that Paul took another turn and wasn't heading to Micheal's father's house. "You don't have to worry about my parents. I am the one to make my choice, and I already told Micheal that I cannot accept him," I said while gazing out the window. Almond sat on my thighs, watching the road too, enjoying the ride with a smile on his face. "It's okay. I will respect whatever choice you make. But I want you to make your own choice and not let your family influence you. Besides, when we get married, we will move to another city and not reside here,"

    Amelia's POV. I gulped hard and followed Paul to the front of the hall. Many guests peered at us like we were the celebrants. Micheal''s parents looked surprised, especially his father, who knew me. He frowned but tried his best to mask it. Paul led me to where his mother sat, and I felt like the ground would open up and swallow me. "Mom, meet Amelia Jackson, my friend that I told you about," Paul introduced me to his mother. She resembled Micheal's mother and was a bit older than her, but they looked alike. "Amelia, it's nice to meet you, my dear. My son spoke so much about you," she said with a warm smile, and I greeted her with relief. "Nice to meet you too, Madam," I told her, and she grinned. "You're welcome." "Where's your son?" she asked me, taking me by surprise, and I pointed over to Gloria and her friends carrying Almond. "I see. It's unfortunate that Paul is in love with you and Micheal wants you too. You should know that our families have been close for years, and

    Amelia's POV. "Hey, Amelia, easy. Where are you in a hurry to?" Franklin asked, as he caught me before I tripped and fell. I steadied myself and moved away from him. "I'm fine. I am going to see Michael's mother. How are Natalie and your twins?" I asked him, and he grinned. "They are fine," he replied, and I asked him, "What are their names? Are you going to do a naming ceremony for them?" "No. We already named them, so that is not needed," Franklin said, and I gasped. "Oh. It's fine. I'm asking because you and my sister are married, so I was thinking that you both would want to do your babies' party?" I asked. "No. Natalie and I discussed it, and we decided not to. Maybe during their birthday, but we already shared their names online. Victor and Victoria Howard," Franklin said with a proud smile on his face, and I smiled back. "That's fine. I am glad and would have loved to go and see her, but it's late for today. Send my warm regards to her," I told Franklin, and he nodded.

    AMELIA'S POVI felt relieved after chatting with Natalie, and she advised me to give Michael a chance and not push him away now that he wanted us to get back together.Sighing, I went to plug my phone into its charger. However, it rang with an incoming call from Paul."Hey, Amelia. What's up? I wanted to know if you have gone home as I am about to leave the party now?" Paul asked, and I told him,"I am at home.""Alright. Take care of yourself. Will you be attending the Thanksgiving service tomorrow? Although they will go to church and do the rest of the party in their family house, and only family members can honor the event," Paul said, and I told him, "I will. How about you?""Well, I am not attending it, as I am still pissed off that Michael didn't tell me about you before my return. I feel bad, and I don't have to pretend with him like I am okay about it," Paul lamented, and I could feel his frustration."I'm sorry," I apologized to him, and he said, "It's okay, Amelia.

    Natalie's POV."I feel so emotional right now," I told my husband as we walked into the house together."You don't have to feel that way," Franklin said to me as we walked into the living room together."I just felt like your mother and your sister should have not left us right now," I laughed sadly and wiped off my tears, and my husband smiled and hugged me."You can always go and visit them if you want. My Dad's home isn't far," he said, caressing my shoulder warmly, and I nodded."I know," I hugged him and pulled him into a kiss as he was taller than me."Thanks for being a wonderful husband," I told Franklin once our lips parted, and he smiled."You're welcome," we kissed again and went to join my mother upstairs, since she was in her room with my twins and looking at us.The sun was hot, so we didn't want to take the twins under the sun to say their goodbyes to their grandma and aunt.As I went to pick up my phone, guess what I saw. It was a message from Amelia, showing me a diam

    Amalie's POV.As I arrived at my father's house, I drove my car into the residence and parked it.I recalled Micheal's attempt to kiss me goodbye when he returned back with my son for us to leave.Almond was crying, not wanting to let go of Micheal. And I was shocked that he was already fond of Micheal's touch.It reminded me of Almond's one-year birthday. Micheal came to see me and celebrate with my baby, but it was a low-key celebration and not like it was aired.Sighing, I turned off my car and got out. I moved over to the passenger seat at the front to get Almond out of the car and I took him indoors."How did the event go, Amalie?" Mom asked, as soon as I got into the living room."Good evening, Mom. It went well. Although it is more like a family reunion stuff in their house. So I didn't wait for the event to end," I told my mother, and she said,"That's fine. As long as you attended it," Mom replied from the couch where she sat watching the flat-screen television and the teleno

    Natalie's POV.As I finished breastfeeding my son, I laid him on the bed and stood up to check outside the window of the room on the top floor.The sound of a car arriving caught my attention and I moved ahead to the balcony to peer on who had arrived.A black car drove into our residence and parked. Taking a closer look at the car, Susan came out first and I knew that Franklin's mother and sister had arrived.Susan donned a blue top and black trousers as she got out of the car, smiling from cheek to cheek.As I stood there at the balcony, I watched Susan walk back to the trunk of the black SUV and pull out two boxes."We're home!" She exclaimed as she shut the trunk of the car.Mrs. Kimberly got out of the car wearing a deep green dress and black shoes. She smiled, just as Franklin walked up to welcome her."Welcome, Mom," Franklin hugged his mother and his sister politely, and I saw my mother arrive from the grocery shopping that she had gone to do.Sighing, I moved away from the ba

    Amelia's POV:"Why are you standing behind me? Since when did you get here?" I asked Micheal as I met his gaze, and he smiled."I came out immediately you left the hall. It wasn't necessary for you to have told Natalie where you saw the photos. I didn't bother to tell her since she is already married," Micheal said with a sad smile on his face, but I asked him, "You know that she is married, and yet, you stored a married woman's photograph in your album. Anyway, it's none of my business. I have to go home now with my son and say my goodbye to your parents."I told Micheal just as I walked up to meet him to take Almond away from his arms. But to my shock, Almond refused to come with me as he clutched tightly to Micheal's shirt, not agreeing to let go."He is our son, Amelia. Not your son alone," Micheal said, smiling after seeing that our son doesn't want to come with me."Fine. You can take him to your house and take care of him. I have to go home now. Let me tell your parents goodbye

    Amelia's POV:Honestly, I had not expected to kiss Micheal. Or for him to kiss me. The way he looked at me made me blush, but recalling that he had my sister's photos for that long period of time made me jealous.I took my phone and dashed away from his bedroom, stepping out for some fresh air and coming downstairs to the ground floor for the party."What happened between you and my brother, Amelia? Your face appears so flushed," Gloria Austin asked me as I went to the couch to meet her.She had changed from her casual red dress and now she donned a blue dress that was designed with diamond embroidery at the top and the bottom of the dress. It was a sleeveless dress, but it perfectly accentuated her figure."Nothing," I told her as she sat there drinking, and she offered me a drink."Do you care for some? I know that you wouldn't want to go into detail about what went on doing with my brother, after I left you with him. But from the look of it, I can tell that you and Micheal are gett

    Michael's POV:I arrived here earlier and met my mother in the living room. She informed me that Amelia was here with her grandson and said, "Maybe she went upstairs with Gloria.""Alright, Mom," I went upstairs to find my sister and Amelia, as I was not expecting to see Amelia in my father's house.But to my shock, she was in my room, instead of my sister's room, and she was going through my photo album.I had kept those photos for years, with the hope of showing them to Natalie, but Franklin snatched her and refused to divorce her. What hurt me more was Natalie's confirmation to me that she loves Franklin and cannot divorce him. I knew that I cannot have her, and it was all Amelia's fault.Now, she accused me and looked at me like I had wronged her."Michael, what are you trying to do?" Amelia asked, avoiding me as I marched up to meet her."You walked away from my mother, and not only that, you want to ruin her happy day of reconciliation with my Dad, just because of your personal

    Amelia's POV"I want to send this pictures to Natalie. How can Michael have this photographs with him? I cannot recall meeting him then. Not to mention Franklin. It means he had been in love with Natalie for long," I lamented after snapping some of the pictures.It was part of the reason I disliked my sister then. She had a bigger bust than me. Her hips were very inviting, even me as a woman was jealous, so I derived joy in bullying her.She got that perfect body, despite her being short."There's no need to send these photos to Natalie. She is married now, and these were throwback photos. I only wanted you to see photos of my brother and not this," Gloria said, but I had already sent all the photos to Natalie and Franklin."I don't care. Your brother should better explain how he got this. Did he pay someone to spy on my sister and me? How can he have pictures of Natalie and me in bikinis, when we don't have them?" I asked her, although we had the videos recording from our 18th birthd

    Amelia's POV:"Good morning, Dad, Mom," I greeted my parents in the living room as I came downstairs and saw them seated together on the couch.It was a Sunday, and Dad and Mom don't go to church often."Morning, Amelia," Dad replied, wearing a white garment, and my mother wore a white nightdress and sat beside him."Where are you off to?" Dad asked me, seeing me dressed up and carrying my son in my arms."I am going to the Austin's residential estate. But I would like to have my breakfast first before leaving the house," I told my father, and he smiled."That's good. Come, let us have breakfast together. Do you know their house address?" Dad asked me, rising up from the couch as he walked up to the dining table to meet me and Almond. As I set my son to sit next to me in the dining chair."Not really," I replied, and my father nodded and said, "I will give you their address."Mom came over to the dining table and joined us for breakfast. A maid walked out of the kitchen and served us
