Meredith's standpoint "Bloody hell!" They screamed in shock. "What the… Wait, whose birthday are we celebrating?" Mordecai asked confusedly. "Autumn's and Chelsea's, you both have been so busy falling in love that you forgot your birthday," Gaia replied. "That's not right, I think I'll remember my birthday if I have it. My birthday is next month, right?" Chelsea asked unsurely. Autumn and Chelsea were coincidentally born on the same day, another reason why they are so close. "Wait, it is our birthday!" Autumn exclaimed. "How did I forget?" "Easy, you were sucking—" Jasmine smacked Jake who was about to say that. They are Chelsea's younger siblings. "Why didn't you tell me your birthday was today?" "I mentioned it twice, but we both forgot," "Oh, my baby girl is one year older," Chelsea's mother cooed as she spread her hand to hug Chelsea. Thank goodness my parents weren't here, my dad would have started talking and you don't want him to talk. For the next hour, everyone hugge
Meredith's standpoint "Since you are so good at matching people up, think you can match me up with someone?" Laney asked sheepishly. "I see a lot of men here," "But only one is meant for you," Chelsea said. "So, I'm not the only one who picked up on it? I forgot you are my twin, we are so cool." Autumn giggled. "High five, sister!" Chelsea shouted. "High ten, bitch!" They did a very loud high ten and laughed. "What are these two idiots talking about?" Brianna snorted. Beats me. "Delaney, if I should tell you that the only man who would love you for eternity is here, would you believe me? Would you believe me if I called his name?" "Who?" Laney asked curiously. "Jaxon." Chelsea deadpanned. "What?" Laney gasped. "It might be impossible to believe but Jaxon has been in love with you way before Paul even met you. According to what Cai told me, you guys were somehow friends and it was through him you met Paul. Being a friend, he didn't want to backstab his friend, especially when
Autumn's standpoint I eyed Mordecai with temporary disdain as he fussed over the little stomach pain I was feeling. I ate another of my favorite foods and the baby didn't like it. I didn't want to tell him, but he has become a wizard since he found out I was pregnant. Eventually, he knew about it and was nagging and panicking, scattering my house pharmacy for drugs as if he knew what I ought to take. (Yeah, I had a whole little pharmacy in our house for emergencies) He's not bad, he's a sweetheart really. But his overprotectiveness was a problem. Sure, I was able to reduce it by threatening both him and his grandfather that if they kept troubling me, I'd file a divorce or abort the baby. They thought it was a bluff so I showed them it wasn't by taking completely harmless abortion pills… Hold up, I changed the pills to sweets. Of course, they almost had a heart attack, but with the help of Aaron—I love that guy—I was able to pull it off. Well, you can't stop everything, can you? "I c
Autumn's standpoint "You know what I think," Laney said seriously, "make him jealous." "You said it, girl," Gaia agreed. "From my experience, the best way to force a guy who likes you to spill it out is to make him jealous." "Yeah, it worked for me with Andy." "Let's do it like this," I said grinningly, already dialing Jacky's number. I put the phone on speaker and signaled them to be quiet. "Hey, Jacky Chan," "Glim That," his ridiculous nickname for me, "how's my niece?" "Your nephew is fine, thank you." "So why are you calling me? We both know you wouldn't just call for no reason." I rolled my eyes. "I'm wondering if you are there with Brianna, I wanted to tell her that the dress she asked for on her date was sent to me." "Not really, she's not… Wait, did you say her date?" "Oh yeah, didn't she tell you? A doctor friend of mine has been into her for weeks now and was asking her out, so since Brianna has a crush on him, she accepted," "Why?! She's dating me! We are together
Autumn's standpoint "Meredith, save your ass for the auction, and stop distracting my workers with that jawbreaker of yours!" I shouted at Meredith who was intentionally going about her work in a very sexy and seductive manner. She looked at me from underneath her lashes and smirked. She is no longer the innocent girl. "She's practicing how to seduce Aaron tonight!" Chelsea shouted from where she stood in the dressing room, making up one of my volunteers for the auction. I was doing many ladies a favor as I would be connecting them to rich men and maybe even their soulmates. All they had to do was play their part well or go crazy. "Fuck you," Merrie laughed as she showed Chels her middle finger. Carla rushed into the room taking off her dress, not caring if there were men there. "Can you at least use the locker room?" My other cousin, Rita asked. All my unmarried cousins volunteered to help. This involved Carla, Rita, and Penelope. Don't misunderstand things. Rita and Penelope were
The auctioning was going very well with bidding high for each item. Andy's paintings made us a lot of bucks, along with the precious stones Merrie bought and a couple of other things. It was time for the ladies' auction. I sent out the others and saved my sexy friends for last. So far, the men were responding faster than I imagined. Rita and Penelope with three other gorgeous women were the highest bid so far. Carla got a date with a woman—she was not happy about that. "And here is Brianna Timberlake, age, 24. Brianna is not single, but if you still want to spend some time with her, then feel free to bid. Bidding for my beautiful friend starts at two thousand." I said. I ran my eyes through the crowd to find Jacky staring at her with mouth wide open. He came with his manager and she was laughing as she watched his face. The bidding began and kept going up thanks to Jacky's manager who would counter any that dared and at the end, they let it go to a man who bid her for $3,900. Jacky t
Autumn's standpoint A date with the devil. I officially tagged my day with Landon. So technically, I couldn't tell Cai about it because I knew he would abandon everything beforehand and come to destroy him. So, the plan was to get the date over with on time and return home before he did. It was the perfect plan. All I had to do was hope and pray that he didn't find out. I wasn't going to keep it a secret, just tell him after the date. The girls packed themselves at my place to dress up since they needed to "borrow" one thing or the other. They just wanted to annoy me… Okay, convince me to return Landon's money and not go on the date. "I'm telling you, Autumn, this is a bad idea," Brianna repeated the same words for the umpteenth time. "A really terrible idea," Chelsea added. "One that will end up bad," said Delaney. "And might cause a fight between you and Mordecai," said Meredith. "I have a date with a lesbian," Gaia complained. We all simultaneously looked at her plainly. "Wh
Autumn's standpoint"How do I tell him?""Er, Aaron, remember that time you dragged me to your house and ripped my fucking hymen open and fuck the hell out of me? Well, I warned you that I might get pregnant so here I am, your descendant growing inside my womb. How about that?" I suggested. Gaia smacked the back of my head."How is that a reasonable suggestion!""She asked. And don't slap a pregnant woman, I can lose the baby." I whined. They chuckled."Look, just tell him tomorrow, but now enjoy the date." Brianna smiled. After some more encouragement, we were ready to go. My driver was driving me to the location. I decided to leave my gossip report. I had formed the habit of telling Cai everything even if I shouldn't. He was very good at keeping secrets so I trusted him.Me: sweet gossip!I was lucky he was online.Cai: yeah?Me: Meredith is pregnant, we just found out.Cai: I know.I reread the message to make sure I wasn't seeing things. I groaned and sent him a reply.Me: know-it
