“Okay, what do you guys want?” Jessica asked.

“ Simple, we want you to prepare us Chicken soup, potato chips, pancakes, fried chicken, pasta and meatballs and rice. We want you to prepare them for us today” they said and Jessica smiled.

“I thought you guys were going to ask for something impossible. It’s easy, consider it done. I would ask the maid to prepare it” Jessica said and stood up.

The kids gave her a weird look, she wondered what was wrong.

“What?” She asked.

“We don’t want the maids to prepare it, we want you to prepare it,” they said and the look on Jessica’s face became a horrific one:

“What? I can’t cook, you don’t expect me to go into the kitchen and start cooking when there are tons of maids to do it” Jessica said and the kids shrugged.

“Okay, ask the maid to do everything then. We can’t do what you are asking for “ Addison said and they looked away from her and continued what they were doing before she came.

She gritted her teeth, what she asked them was to help he

    “Hello Sweethearts,” Lisa said to the octuplets who were staring at her strangely but they didn’t say a word.Arianna stared at her without saying a word, in as much as she wanted to say something that wasn’t nice to her, she just couldn’t because the kids were present. She then turned to the kids.“Let’s go swim at the pool,” Arianna said as she gave Lisa one last glance before walking out of the house with the kids trailing behind her. Lisa clicked her tongue and walked past Jessica and Matthew going upstairs to her room. “That cooking was a disaster I haven’t even started. This day is the worst” she said as she turned to Matthew and then went upstairs to her room.Meanwhile, Hannah is seen in a hotel with her client discussing business terms with her. “I’ll be sure to redraft the contract and send it to you, thank you for your time Mrs Joanna” Hannah said as they both stood up and shook hands.“I’ll be expecting your call,” the client said with a smile on her face, and with tha

    “What do you think you are doing, Lisa?” Brandon asked and she bit her lips and moved closer to him tracing her hands on his chest.“Nothing, I just want us to come back together and return to the way we were,” she said calmly and Brandon frowned, removing her hands from his chest.“You must be crazy and delusional. I don’t love you, Lisa. I can never love you, I love my wife and she means everything to me” he said and pushed her away from him.She frowned and rolled her eyes.“What is it about her? She doesn’t dress sexy like I do…..” “And that’s what I like about her, her decency, it drives me crazy,” he said and the frown on her face deepened.“You are mine, Brandon. Mine alone” she said between gritted teeth and he laughed.“Why did you come back, Lisa? Why now? You haven’t stated the real reason you came back here” he said and she rolled her eyes as she sat on the couch. “I told you, I came back for you,” she said and he sighed.“How much do you want this time?

    It was a Sunday morning and Hannah was awoken by the sound of a knock on her door. “Hannah” she heard Arianna’s voice followed by a knock. She stood up, looking so tired, and went to open the door.“Mom” she muttered as she saw Arianna holding a tray of food in her hands.“Hey honey, are you alright?” she asked as she entered the room and dropped the food tray on the table.“Yeah, I'm okay,” she said tiredly as she sat on the bed.“You don't look okay to me. You didn't have dinner last night, so I decided to bring breakfast to you” Arianna said and Hannah forced herself into smiling.“Hey, honey, what is it? You can talk to me about anything” Arianna said and Hannah signed.“I saw Lisa and Brandon together last night,” Hannah said and Arianna opened her mouth surprised.“What?” she muttered.“I feel hurt, mommy. And it's unlike me. I feel so weak and this is not me. I do have control over my emotions and how I feel but now I don't know what’s happening to me” she said and Arianna smi

    “Hey Hannah” Lisa muttered and Hannah stared at her and looked away. She noticed her new hair, it was her kind of hair. She scoffed and rolled her eyes.“I wanted to apologize for yesterday, I'm sorry I didn't mean to put the coffee on the file yesterday and now you would have to redraft everything,” she said in a mocking tone and Hannah rolled her eyes.“Redrafting it isn't a problem, so far I'm getting paid in millions for it unlike you who does not have a job. You only go after men who don't want you for money” she said with a smile on her face and Lisa frowned. She gritted her teeth and tightened her fist.She quickly replaced the look on her face with a smile.“I told Lucas to get me a job at the company and he agreed to it,” Lisa said and Hannah laughed.“That would be a good idea, I can’t wait to be your boss and fire you the same day you are going to resume,” she said and Lisa stared at her confused.“What do you mean fire me?

Brandon didn’t say a word to them but the look on his face said it all. He was jealous and hurt, now that’s what she needs to prey on him. “Brandon, are you so dumb that you cannot see the truth in front of you? This woman doesn’t love you and is only with you because of your money.Now she’s going to see another man, just the way she went to see her lover at the hotel she went to yesterday” Lisa said. He wasn’t gonna respond to Lisa, because she’s the reason Hannah is so pissed at him. But then he paused and raised an eyebrow as he stared at her, wondering how she knew Hannah was at the hotel out of town yesterday.It only means one thing, she’s been spying on her and she sent him the picture last nig

    “What is going on with you Brandon?” He said and then sighed softly.“That’s not the reason I called you. I called you because of Hannah. She went to a hotel outside town yesterday and came home late and she’s seeing a divorce lawyer” Brandon said as she scratched his hair.“And how did you know about all of this?” Liam asked.“Someone sent me a picture of her leaving the hotel last night,” he said and Liam scoffed.“And when you say someone, you mean Lisa,” he said and Brandon sighed.“That’s not the problem, I think she’s seeing someone else,” Brandon said and Liam noticed the look on his face. He was scared. He was scared of losing Hannah.“Did you know Lisa had gone to see Mrs Joanna at the hotel yesterday? They haven’t finalized the contract yet but they’ve discussed the terms of everything.Mrs. Joanna’s PA reached out to me last night and told me they are waiting for Hannah to draft the contract so they could sign” Liam said and Brandon paused and became speechless.“Sh*t!!” H

Now, this is the height of it all. He would not take any disrespect from anyone. Not even his brother because of Lisa.He moved towards Lucas and punched him in the face. “Hey Brandon calm down, “ Liam said as he held Brandon and pulled him away from Lucas. “You should leave Lucas,” Liam said and Lisa held Lucas’s arm.“That’s enough Lucas, let’s go,” she said and Lucas gave Brandon one last glare. “It isn’t over, “ he said and with that, he walked out of

    There were different pictures of Humphery and Linda together from when he was a baby to his teenage years.

It was a picture of Lucas Linda and Humphrey together.She checked the date on the picture, it was a picture from just last month. She took another picture of them and stared at the date, it was from the last three weeks.“Lucas knew all this while, he knew about her, he knew about Humphery too when he came to our house but then pretended to hate him. He knew everything”, Jessica thought as she put the pictures in her bag. She felt so hurt that Lucas had lied to them. She walked out of the room and saw Humphery was still in the kitchen.“Uhm, I’ll be on my way now, humphrey” Jessica muttered and then walked out of the house.

You know I know these tricks already, you got it from me.If there’s something you want to know, I have nothing to hide” Linda said and Jessica scoffed.
