Miguel's POV

“Sir, that's all for today.” My Secretary dropped the file on my table. “Is there anything else that you need, sir?”

“No. You are dismissed.” I waved her off as I checked the time on my wristwatch.

It's almost time for me to pick my wife up. I asked Star not to bother with it today, so I'm the one bringing her home.

I bet she will be surprised to see me.

“Sir….” She trailed off, looking like she wanted to ask about something, but couldn't.

“What's wrong?”

“You look so happy today, so I was wondering.....” She leaned closer. “Are things good between you and your wife?”

“Hmm.”

“What?” She gasped. “You just answered that without scolding me?!” She tilted her head to the side.

“Do you need me to duck your pay?”

I was supposed to growl at her like always, but I didn't feel the need to do so. You can say that I've been happy since the night ago.

“You don't have to be harsh, boss. I'm leaving.” She winked at me, “Send my regards to your wife. I will love to meet her someday.

    Jewel's POVIt has been five days since my husband and I got intimate, and I've been feeling strange. Just like this morning, I found it difficult to get up from bed because of how tired I was. Could it be that I've gone down with the flu?“Are you okay?” Miguel placed his palm on my forehead.“Mmm. Why will you think I'm not?” I pursed my lips. “You look tired.” He placed his hand on mine. “Are you sure you are okay?”“Yes.” I forced a smile. “I will be late in returning from school. You don't have to bother about picking me up today, Star will do that.”“Star? Why did you suddenly wish for her to pick you up? What's wrong? Are you okay? Did I do anything to anger you? Aren't you satisfied with—”“You are making me dizzy with your questions. I'm alright. You don't have to worry about me. I just need to do some things at school. Star will take me home.” But that wasn't it. With the constant change in my health, which is quite alarming, a visit to the doctor is what I need. “Here.”

    My mind had been plagued with the words the unknown caller spoke. As much as I tried, I couldn't connect with him. I tried calling his number, but it wasn't reachable. I secretly asked Miguel if he had somehow given my number to someone, but he claimed he was the only one who had the number. “Is there anything wrong? Did you get a call from an unknown person?” He tilted his head to the side, with his nose scrunched a bit. “No. That's not it. I was just wondering if you are the only one who has my number.” I nervously scratched my hair. There was no way I could tell him about the man without knowing the reason for the call. “I'm the only one.” He took his phone from the cushion, “I will be back. I need to make a call.” He left me in the parlour and went upstairs. "When I return, we will take a walk in the garden after lunch." "Okay." I nodded, pleased with his words. I watched him walk upstairs before I turned to focus on the series I was watching. A few minutes later, the doo

    Nikki and Miguel spent most of the afternoon catching up with each other, while I watched them like a hawk. I felt a bit jealous of how intimate they were, but I know it's foolish of me to think that way. They are related, so they have every reason to be closer to each other. Yet, my small brain didn't understand the basics. “Why do you keep boring holes in your husband's head?” Star raised a brow. “Your jealousy is coming off you in waves. You have to cool your eggs before you harm someone.” She pursed her lips. “He hasn't been this close to me.” I watched Miguel smile when she said something funny.“Come on, didn't he recently start opening up to you? You don't have to be jealous. Though she's his sister, you are his wife. You don't have any reason to be envious. Moreover, they invited you over, but you declined.” “Sitting next to the pool is more calming than the garden.” I folded my arms and pretended as if I didn't wish to go over there and sit between them.“She's coming ov

    Miguel's POVIt took a promise to top up her account, to get Nikki to apologize to Jewel, and it was worth it. As I sat on the bench, I couldn't help but cast glances at them. The way they whispered as they occasionally glanced towards me, made me smile. Though I know Nikki won't pass out the opportunity to gossip about me, I'm relieved to see the only two females dear to my heart, getting along. My phone dinged with a new notification. “Don't forget the top-up you promised. I've got your wife's forgiveness.” I glanced up at Nikki, who was meaningfully glaring at me. God. How did I get to have a sister like her, who only thinks of money? I bet there is nothing else in that little brain of hers. ****Jewel and Nikki got along quite well. Things were okay with their friendship, but things weren't okay with Jewel and me. Aside from the first night, I slept with her, Jewel had been reluctant to let me into her room. She always found excuse after excuse whenever I tried to come

    Jewel's POVHis question put me at a great disadvantage. It made me decide to do something to take his mind off his doubt, and this was what I can think of. A shudder ran through my body as I slowly sank to my knees before him. “Jewel.” He touched my face, “you don't have to do this if you don't want.”“Who told you I don't?” I bit the bottom of my lips. “Unzip your trousers,” I slowly licked my bottom lips. Miguel locked his eyes with mine. “If you don't want to do this, you—” “Will you just shut up!” I snapped at him. “Don't you want me to do this? If you are fed up with me, just tell me. Why waste our time?” I angrily made to rise from my kneeling position, but he placed his hand on my back. "My apologies. I will do as you requested." The sounds of his zip, when he let it down, made me lower my eyes. I let them drift down his body until my eyes alighted on his shaft. It was large, firm, and throbbing, with thick veins running along the shaft between the shiny, purple head

    To hide the red mark of his hand around my neck, and the small red Hickeys on my neck, I wore a turtle neck. Though it didn't cover it all, it was enough to cover at least half of it.This way, I won't turn unnecessary heads when I pass people. “Good Morning.” I sat next to Nikki, who was scrolling through her phone. Miguel left for work earlier than usual. He claimed there were things that he needed to take care of at work. “Hmm.” She nodded but didn't look up at me. “Star, is breakfast ready?” I called out to her. "It's almost time for me to leave for class." “Give me ten minutes. I'm still baking your favourites!” She yelled. “Roger that," I placed both hands on the table. “Are you ready for school?” Nikki raised a brow at me. “Hmm.”She kept her phone on the table. “You don't look—”The words froze in her throat when her eyes landed on my covered neck. “Oh, my God!” She yelled. “What's wrong?” I nervously tugged the turtleneck up.

    Miguel's POVI've been avoiding Jewel since last night. Not because I wanted to avoid her. I was only embarrassed that she found out about my ugly kink. This was one of the things I never intended for her to discover, about me. I'm ashamed to look her in the face now. And that's no thanks to my sister, who doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut. All you need to do is wave a wad of cash on her face, and she will tell you the secrets of the entire world. Mind you, she gives out a secret you pay her to keep under wraps, if the person asking for it, pays her higher than you did. She doesn't keep any secrets.“Brother!”The aforementioned she-devil ran after me. “Aren't you having breakfast? Star said she's making your favourite.”I gave her a freezing glare. “Oh, my. Don't give me that look. You don't have to be sad if Jewel refuses to give you some. She is entitled to her body.” She grinned, “but if you need me to talk to her about that, you know what to do.”She made a motion of

    Jewel's POV I thought I will meet Miguel during breakfast, but I learned from Nikki, that he left early for work. And that was saying something since I woke up early.Though she claimed he only left because of his work, deep down, I know the reason he did so. He's avoiding me because of last night. If only I had known, I wouldn't have said anything about it. I leaned on the bench under the tree opposite the school's gate, to wait for Star, who was running late because there are things she needed to take care of at school. I would have gone home on my own, but I know Miguel will blow a racket should he get to learn that I went home alone. My phone started ringing, cutting me off from my thoughts. The caller ID caused my heart to skip a beat. It was the same number that called me those nights ago. Without a waste of time, I picked up the call. “I believe you've been trying to connect to me, haven't you?” The man asked. “And why wasn't it possible? Who the hell are you?”The m

    They stared at him, looking confused. “Mum, what's he doing here?” Jane asked, still looking at him. She only spared a look at me before she turned her entire focus on him. “Come on, babies.” Miguel motioned for them to come close to him. When they didn't go to him, he glanced up at me. “I thought you weren't coming back. I intended to relocate to the street, you live with them.” He smiled at me, "I have made the plans already. Implementing it was my next plan." “You stupid man!” I closed the distance between us and enveloped him in a hug. He rose from the ground and twirled me in the air. I chuckled at the feeling of being lifted by him. I felt light as he held me up like a baby. "Put me down!" I said in a voice that doesn't sound as commanding as it should. You can't blame me. Having him carry me is something I wish he can do all the time. “Mum, why are you hugging him?!” Jane shouted. While the others stared at me with shocked expressions on their faces.“Oh.” I chuckled as

    “Is our new home that far?” Jill yawned, already tired of the ride. It's not a secret that my kids hate trips since we have been going on numerous trips since they were born. I chuckled at the impatient expression on her face. “It's not that far. Don't worry, we are almost there.”We would have been there long ago had I driven like before. But no, I had to be extra careful on the road to prevent my happiness from taking the upper hand and leading me to something I might regret. “Can you get an ice cream for us?” Jane rubbed her eyes. “I'm tired.”“Do you want an ice cream now or when we reach?” I glanced at them through the mirror. “Now!” they chorused together, not taking a moment to think. “Okay.”And like that, a journey that would have taken us an hour max, took us two hours and thirty minutes to arrive. I had to buy their favourite ice cream for them.I drove straight to Miguel's mansion. Luckily, he wasn't back by the time we arrived. His guards let me in as if it's natural

    “And if it's not my charming friend.” Phil beamed as he sat opposite me. He looked like he rushed, to get here. I don't blame him because I just suddenly called and asked him to meet me. I returned from Miguel's house an hour ago, to make it in time to bring my kids home. “You took your time, didn't you?” I frowned at him, “I was intending to leave before you arrived.” I pretended like I was angry at him when I wasn't. “I'm sorry. There was something I needed to take care of. Don't be offended, okay?” He grinned.“Even if I want to be annoyed with you, I can't,” I pouted. “You are just too cute for me to be angry at you.”“See? I'm too handsome for you to be angry with me.” He placed both hands on his cheeks, “So, why did you call me here? I know it's not to drink coffee.” He glanced around at the almost empty café, “it's almost evening!”“I'm leaving.”“So soon? I only came — wait a minute, what do you mean by you are leaving?” He gaped at me, staring at me as if I had somehow lo

    I sent my kids to school and decided to drive to work. When I left Miguel, I only contacted Nikki and Star. It was with their help that I got back on my feet until I met a kind old man. He was the CEO of Dabris, and he gave his shares and the company to me because he was too old to handle it, and his company was going bankrupt. That was how I became a CEO and each day, I work to prove that he can trust me. Though he's not in this world any more, I still have this need to make him proud of me. I got a notification on my phone, and I slid it up, to see a message. I frowned at the content. Why the hell will someone ask me to listen to the news?I packed my car to the side of the road, and switched the radio on, to the station the message spoke of.“Hello, everyone.” I was shocked when I recognized Miguel's voice. There is no way I won't recognize his voice, even through the radio. “So, I was a douche to my wife. I treated her badly, and I'm here to ask for forgiveness.....” There wa

    I didn't hear from Miguel after a week. It was as if he had given up, which I'm grateful for. I stopped looking back as I left my house, trying to pretend like everything was normal when it wasn't. I know it will only be a matter of time before he starts disturbing, me once more. I hurried over to my children's school, packed my car and went over to their playground when I didn't see them waiting for me at the security office like they normally do.From afar, I saw my kids standing together, with — Miguel? With my heart beating fast, I hastened towards them at the sight of his familiar stature.No.This can't be happening.How did he enter the school without permission?God. I quickened my pace towards them.Miguel had his back on me, so he didn't see me until I reached where they were.“Jane, Jill, James!” I called out to them as I hurried towards them.“Mum!” They ran towards me at the sound of my voice. And that was when Miguel turned.He looked as shocked to see me as I was to

    Phil took me back to the office before he returned to his office. I met him two years ago when he came for an interview. He was fun on our first meeting, and we clicked it off —as friends. I know he feels something for me, but I don't feel anything for him, and I have never led him on. He's aware that I don't do relationships, and I don't want anything about that. Ever since I left Miguel, I have stayed single, training my cute bundle of joys, who are all I have left after the messy relationship I had with Miguel. Though they remind me so much of him, I won't trade them for anything in the entire world because they are all I have. They are my life, and I will forever be grateful to Miguel for making me a mother. I drove to their school the moment it was four. I spent the last hours thinking of my stupid husband and the expression that was on his face when I left with Phil. “Mum!” Jill called out as she raced towards me. “Hey! Wait for me,” James shrieked, trying to keep up with

    JewelI strode into his office for the first time in years. Nothing has changed. Aside from the new interior design, and change of colours. The shocked expression on Miguel's face was more than I comprehended. My mouth curved up in a smile, but I tampered with it. “Good morning, Mr Miguel,” I professionally smiled at him. “I trust my secretary filled you up on what I request for a partnership?” I strode over to one of the chairs in the boardroom, and sat on it, with my legs crossed, while Miguel stood shocked still staring at me like one who has seen a ghost.The years haven't been good for him. He looked older than ever, with his hair duller. There are dark lines under his eyes, making him look sleep-deprived.“Jewel?” He swallowed. “I'm afraid we are not that familiar with each other, Mr Miguel. I will prefer if you call me, Miss.” I smiled at him, “should we continue?” “Where have you been? I have sought for you throughout—” “I'm afraid you are mistaking me for someone else, M

    MiguelIt has been five freaking years since Jewel left. I have tried to locate her, but haven't been successful. I tried every means possible to locate her, but it seemed like she disappeared into thin air. I ran a hand through my hair as I stared at the piles of files in front of me. For five years, I have buried myself in my work, trying to lessen the thoughts of my wife, but nothing seems to help. I'm always thinking of her, and the mistake I made those years ago. Back then, I knew that Pearl was lying, but I needed enough evidence against her. That was why I attempted to play to the beat of her music. However, it cost me my priceless jewel. If only I didn't do that. Had I not spoken those harsh words to her, she wouldn't have left me. She would have still been here with me. I stared at my window. Star and Nikki left the house a week after Jewel disappeared. Until now, they have not contacted me because they blamed me so much for what happened five years ago. And I take the b

    I didn't go to school because my mind was filled with thoughts of my husband and the words he spoke to me last night. As much as I tried to, I couldn't forget the bite of those words. I stared into space as I tried not to think of it, but each minute, my mind kept on repeating those words as if it were trying to remind me of what a douche my husband is.I checked my phone as if I were expecting a call from him. But there was nothing. He didn't so much as send a message to me. I rolled on the bed and would have continued to think had it not been for my baby that decided it was time to eat. I slowly rose from the bed and walked out of my room, to get breakfast.“Aunt Star, your nephew wants to eat,” I cheerfully said when I entered the kitchen. Both Nikki and Star turned to look at me with puzzled expressions on their faces. The way they stared at me made it seem like they were wondering what was going on with me. “You're acting rather strange, Jewel. Could it be the pregnancy?” Sta
