Avery’s POVImmediately we got to the court, I tried to block off the tingling sensation I felt in the places where Jamal’s lips and hand had been. “Are you ready?” he asked, jolting me from my thoughts.“Yes, I am,” I retorted before stepping out of the car. He always held the door for me since I first met him during an art exhibition.He held me close as there were so many reporters outside the gate, thankfully they were given a restraining order not to enter into the court premises. Suddenly, my eyes caught Liam walking briskly towards us from the parking lot, I sighed heavily, wishing he would be intercepted by someone he was familiar with.Unfortunately, he got to us, I stared at his face which had an evil smirk on it. I knew he was up to no good and the truth was I was not even in the mood to exchange words with him, I listened carefully to the rubbish he spewed from his mouth.I brushed past him, holding Jamal’s hands tightly since I could feel the rage coursing through his bod

Liam’s POV“I paid you for one job, one job!! Josh and this is what I get? Avery, walking out freely from our marriage with my child. You failed to get the custody of my child, now how do I get compensated for that?” I snapped glancing at Barrister Josh and Jason in my office.It seemed unbelievable knowing that Avery won the court case after everything that I did to the witnesses and the worst of them all was, Maria. She sat there blabbing away about her daughter and her husband, how is that any of our business? I treat my wife the way I deem fit! I thought silently watching Josh shivering like a fish out of the water.“Mr. Liam it was a shock to me when the judge passed the final verdict, but there is really nothing I can do about it. The judge has the final say, so I advise you to live in this reality.” Barrister Josh said with quivering lips.Instantly a surge of adrenaline flowed through my veins, turning around abruptly I punched the wall in my office. “Get lost!! And don't thin

Basically, he satisfied all of my cravings, and the funny thing was my heart kept thumping loudly in my chest any time he was around.It was getting frustrating since all I could do was keep my distance from him, and he did not seem to help matters. Since we shared a kiss in my bedroom, Jamal has not stopped showing me romantic sides of him, we were in the kitchen when he grabbed my waist and kissed me passionately.“Ugh!” I exhaled sharply, I truly don't think I can hold back for so long. This has to be a mistake, he probably is just doing all of this to make me feel happy. Jamal is a successful young man, and I'm just baggage.Sighing I turned off the shower faucet and gently stepped out of the bathroom after wrapping the towel around my chest. The housekeeper already served my breakfast on the table, my stomach made weird noises immediately th

Avery’s POVThe car came to a stop and my heart started thumping loudly in my chest, no matter how hard I tried to calm myself down, it was still so futile. I wondered what could ever go wrong.I smothered my jeans which were so straight because I felt so anxious. Jamal opened the door and held my hands protectively while I stepped out of the car, “Careful, don’t hurt yourself okay I'm here to guide you.” his voice held so much affection I could literally jump off a plane if he asked me to right now.“Thank you.” I muttered. Jamal pulled me close to his side while he slipped his left hand around my slender waist. His skin sent hot shivers down my spine, but then I kept trying to control my emotions and hormones.I heard the soft clicking of keys, “Now let’s go inside.” he said, guiding me while I took careful strides into the building.“Are we not there yet? I'm getting exhausted Jamal.”“Alright, you can stop here.” he said holding me in position with his firm hands. My heartbeat acc

You have always been competent what is going on?” I fumed gulping from the whiskey bottle.Jason flinched but stood still staring at me, “Unfortunately Mr. Liam, there is nothing we can do about that, the case was dismissed from the court and Hollywood got away.

Avery’s POVMonths later I sat behind a canvas creating a unique portrait of an African woman in her prime, I wore my work clothes but still, I managed to get smeared all over in paint. Although I was just one month away from holding my baby in my arms I was still strong and agile doing my work diligently. Betty knocked softly on the door, “Good afternoon ma, Do you need me to get something for you?” she inquired softly. “Yes, Betty, Please get me vanilla-flavored kiwi ice cream. Thanks.” I said smiling. She bowed courteously before leaving my workspace. Betty was my personal assistant in the studio. Shortly after I heard a soft knock on the door, “Betty, the door is opened, you are back so early.” I said, calmly placing the palette on the stool close to me. Lifting my head up, I met the man whom my heart beats for, “Babe!” I screamed grinning standing up with my protruding baby bump.

Sighing my throat felt parched but then, I finished up all the whiskey in my mini-bar.Standing up from the bed, I took long strides into the bathroom, anyone who could see me right now would attest to the fact that I was the delusional one. Staying in Avery’s room and using her shower gel gave me a certain type of comfort that I yearned for.I ran a cold water bath and stepped out of the bathroom, reaching for my phone on the table I scrolled through the call log and found out Nana and Grandfather called me so many times and I failed to return the calls.Exhaling sharply I was not in the mood for any more motivating speeches I just wanted to be left alone. It's so hard for me to walk around in the city, I can no longer visit the lounge since the manager thinks I'm bad business.
