(Lily’s Pov)Everything kept on going the way it was and I have been doing pretty good considering the fact that I was already used to the way everything kept on happening in the house.One early morning as I was trying to clean up my room, I was packing my clothes fold by fold and arranging them into the clothe box my mom used to pack hers when she was alive, I was much younger then and didn’t understand why she cherished the box so much. It was an ancient old box but still very strong, water resistant and keeps a cloth in good condition. It was one of the best things I had left of my mom.Each clothe I folded into the box reminded me of some memories I had with her and I did nothing but wish she was still alive. “I miss you, mom” I couldn’t help but think out loud. Life would have been much prettier with my parents. I used to be pampered a lot by them and now nobody even cares about me.My mom was my biggest fan when I was little, she would make my hair, apply some lipstick on my li

(Lily’s Pov)Of all the people I never expected would call me, Jack is the first on the list. How can he be calling me at this time? After abandoning me and not even letting me know whether he got to see any money to assist me or not, even when I needed him the most, he wasn’t there for me, he just vanished without even at least saying a goodbye.After Jack and my friend betrayed me, I had resolved in my heart never to have anything to do with Jack anymore, but each time I got to talk to him, I usually feel like that feeling is rekindled over again, I would have given him a chance in my life if he hadn’t abandoned me when I needed him the most.“He can’t just wake up and call me any day he feels like hoping that everything would just change and I will accept him with an open arm. Never!” now that I’m Jack’s, it would be very hard to associate with anybody that’s not Jane or his domestic staff, so he should just forget about talking to me anymore because apart from having a callous hus

When my mom was alive, she used to tell me every night that she’s praying for me to fall in love with a good man so that I won’t get my heart broken. “Is there any possibility that Austin that Austin is a good man? I pray he is”I got to the office and the managing director was already boiling up with anger and asked that I see her in his office immediately.“good morning ma” I greeted“what’s so good about this morning and why are you coming to work by this time” she queried keeping a straight face. “and you better be sincere with your answer” she added.The thought of telling her the reason why I was late to work eluded me, I was so engrossed in my thought that she had to call me back to consciousness. “hello, Miss Lily, this is not a silent competition” she said.“sorry ma’am” I answered making up my mind to tell her the truth and nothing but the truth.“Yesterday was Valentine’s day, I only had my dad and my friend to celebrate it with, I and my friend decided to take a walk and w

while eating I noticed my Dad staring suspiciously at me, he only stares at me like that whenever he wants to get an information off me. “what is it?” I asked “you know you’ve been smiling like that since I joined you on the table” he said still staring at me Just as I was about saying something a call came into my phone. I gave out a broad smile on seeing that it was Austin who was calling me. “hello beautiful” his gentle voice whispered to my ear on the phone, “I’m your girlfriend now, maybe you should minimize the flattering” I said even when I didn’t mean a word of what I said. “you always give me a reason to keep complimenting you and I won’t forgive myself if I don’t remind you of how of a special person you are to me” his words melted my heart and I’m sure my Dad was more than amazed on seeing how busy I was smiling. “I would want you to come meet my Dad, it doesn’t have to be now, maybe later in the evening” I said still smil

(Jack’s Pov)Each time I remember what Jane told me, I feel betrayed even though I never loved Lily but a marriage isn’t meant to be broken. I know that I am a cruel person but I do not cheat on whosoever is my partner. The thought that I might not really be the father of the child that Lily lost broke my heart and I feel irritated by her sight, but just like Jane said, I’m going to make her feel comfortable until she leads me to the person that got her pregnant.I can’t let myself go through what I went through with Karyn. I got engrossed in my own thoughts that I almost slipped from the edge of my bed where I was sitting. “argh! Life is so unfair but not this time again” I said to myself. Karyn did hers and got away with it but I cannot let my guard down this time.I stood up and walked towards my wardrobe, everywhere was filled with lot of clothes, usually I have problems selecting clothes to wear for an event and most times I end up wearing same outfit on several occasions.Scanni

(Lily’s Pov)The way Jack kept on treating me, made me feel less of myself, he called me a devil right on my face and I couldn’t do anything, not like I can do anything to help the situation. He owns the house and everything in it and that includes me, they have to be a way to be at peace in this house.I didn’t want to keep on playing the victim, I made up my mind to do everything possible to make things work out even if it means going against my own wish, everything was already happening against my own wish so I want the grab the bull by the horn this time.“but then how can I carry out my new resolution with Austin calling me often and on, I wished he forgot about me and never called my number. I can’t imagine being seen with Austin anywhere around the town because people would definitely talk and if Jack gets to know about it then I’m going to be in a great danger.I was still confused on whether or not to give a listening ear to Austin. I didn’t want to have any issues with Jack

(Jack’s Pov)I was so happy that Lily called, if not I would have still been there in that Bar discussing my personal live with Pat. He used to be my best friend then in school, apart from him having a high taste when it comes to food, a lot seem to have changed with him. Trying to talk about my life is one of the reasons I don’t let anyone feel too comfortable around me to discuss.I was happy seeing Pat and was a bit relieved when I saw him because I thought maybe since I don’t have any friend at all, we might go back to being as close as we used to be in school then but I didn’t want that anymore. I dislike men who talk a lot and who always wants to know about my personal life at any slightest opportunity they get, makes me feels like I’m being set up.As much as I was happy that Lily’s call saved me from the unfriendly environment with Pat, I wasn’t so sure if I wanted to know why she was calling me, I ended her call after it rang for a while before bidding Pat goodbye.I flagged

The moment she called me for help, I knew she wanted a way out of the Walkers lives but since I wasn’t able to raise up the money I knew the only chance she had to save her father was to marry that good for nothing son of a bitch.“I’m coming for you Lily; I’m not giving up on you?” I resolved in my heart.Loving Lily was one of the best if not the best choice I ever made in my life, I imagined our lives together as husband and wife in future.

(Lily’s Pov)“Sorry, for what exactly?” I asked with a voice heavy with emotion.“I’m sorry for everything. Can’t you see how sorry I am?” Austin asked“I don’t care whether you are sorry or not. You’re supposed to stay away from my life, I paid the price for that remember?”“Lily it’s not my fault that things happened the way they did…”“It’s my fault then. How could you? Austin I trusted you so much and yet you broke me the third time. Why do you have to keep hurting me? What did I ever do to you to deserve the things that I get from you?” I asked trying so hard to withhold my tears from dropping.Austin tried to make an inch closer but I took two steps backwards to stop him from coming any closer. I never believed I would set my eyes on him again after what he did to me.When Jack showed me that video of us having sex, a video I knew nothing about, my heart sank into my stomach. Austin took a sex video of us without my knowledge. He drugged me and had sex with me.“How am I suppose

(Jack’s Pov)In a bid to find comfort, I ran into a bar filled with lots of people and echoes that came from the loud music being played in the bar. It was a locally made expensive bar and had a very beautiful sight but I was in pains not to pay attention to its details.I found my way into the thick crowd that was rocking each other and flirting around. The crowd was congested but I still managed to find my way to the barman’s spot where I would stay and drink until I’m able to forget all that I’d been through.“One beer please,” I said to the bar attendant who was serving everybody.“Are you married?” the young man asked.“Excuse me,” I said looking confused. I didn’t know what being married had to do with ordering a beer in the bar.“You’re in the couple’s corner, if you’re alone then you should go to the other side, divorced people aren’t allowed her either,” the barboy said pointing to the corner which had only a young lady who was already drinking herself to stupor.For a moment

(Lily’s Pov)When my son woke up, I had to beg the doctor to let us go because his twin brother was at home all alone. The doctor refused and asked that I let them take care of him while I go back to his brother at home but fear wouldn’t let me do that.“I’m sorry ma, we can’t let you take him home when he hasn’t healed properly,” the doctor said.“But I can take care of him at home, all you have to do is give me his drugs and I will administer them to him following your directions” I pleaded.“It doesn’t work that way, ma’am. Let us take care of his wounds” the doctor insisted.“You’re not in any position to tell me what to do with my child” I fumed.“You can take him home if you want, we are only trying our best to make sure that your son is in good condition” the doctor replied.After giving a second thought to the doctor’s advice, I had no other choice left other than to call on Samantha and let her know what happened to one of the twins.“Hello Samantha” I cried.“Why are you cry

(Lily’s Pov)I was at home all alone looking after the kids because Samantha had gone to visit a relative leaving the twins with me. I couldn’t go to the bakery with them because of the heat produced in the bakery shop instead, I decided to take two days off from work and look after my kids while we wait for Samantha to return home.The kids were running around and playing with their dolls while I was making food in the kitchen, suddenly everywhere went cold and I wasn’t hearing their tiny little laughter anymore, after a second, one started crying but I didn’t hear a thing from the other.I got scared and ran out to confirm what was wrong, I got to the sitting room to see my little one lying helplessly on the floor in the pool of his own blood. I wrapped him up in my arms immediately and searched all over his body for where the blood was coming from. I turned him over and it was from his head that the blood was streaming from.Confused and didn’t know what to do I reached for my phon

(Jack’s Pov)I got home after a long day at the company and decided that I need to rest because I had lunch almost at 4 pm, I didn’t see the need to eat again at night so I walked straight to my room without going to the dining to check what was prepared.“I thought I was going to wait forever” Karen chuckled immediately after I turned the light on.“You scared me! How did you get here?” I asked, disgusted by her presence.“Are you not happy to see me? What was I even thinking? I have forgotten that you have a new wife but I don’t see her anywhere around this place” Karen chuckled looking around everywhere and making a comic face.“I’m warning you, stop it…”“Or what Jack? I loved you and what did you do? You divorced me for some whore who got pregnant for another man, tell me, have you suddenly become impotent that another man had to get your wife pregnant, so pathetic” Karen mocked.“How did you get into my room and who opened the gate for you?” I asked the desperate Karen seating o

(Jack’s Pov)After meeting with the staff who took away my money, I headed to the company to deal with the complaints I’ve been receiving from our clients over contracts that were yet to be approved. The contracts were delicate and my assistant couldn’t approve them, as I needed to look into them, otherwise, I would have asked him to.My assistant called complaining that we might lose some of our major customers if we do not do anything with the contracts and that was why I decided to go to the company after deciding to stay off the company and have my assistant take care of things.The company was busy and filled with people, soon everybody started bowing at the sight of me as they usually do. I was becoming tired of the entitlement which they gave me, I wanted my staff to feel free with me and not freak out whenever they see me but that seemed like a wish that wouldn’t come true, even when I try talking to some of them they would bend their head until I would be done talking.“Good

(Lily’s Pov)“We are doomed,” I said to Karen over the phone, panting.“Calm down Jane. You haven’t even told me what it is that happened”“Don’t you get it? Some strange person called Jack telling him that they’ve found her, what if it’s Lily that he found. I think Jack is in love with her”“What makes you think so?” Karen asked.“Because I heard him say to Jack ‘Boss we have found her” I replied.“Not that part”“Which part do you mean?” I asked“The part you said he’s in love with her”“Yes, Karen I think he’s in love with her and if she’s the one that they’ve found then it’s the end of the road for the both of us” I cried perambulating around the whole place.“What do you suggest we do now?” Jane asked.“I do not know, I’m as confused as you are yourself and Jack isn’t giving me any chance to get close to the company despite how weak I thought he was.“That’s not good at all”“Yes, it isn’t and now I’m scared. What if he’s the real owner of those kids and they have been found?”“J

(Jack’s Pov)I rushed in the direction of the address where Nate sent to my phone. It was the new location where he keeps hostages whenever captures anyone that I have him go after.A week ago, my assistant brought to my notice the case of a missing fund where a huge amount of money went missing. It was traced to the desk of our three-year-old staff who was a data analyst. She was employed because her curriculum vitae says she is an experienced data analyst and when my assistant gave her a test, she did very well and that was the most relevant reason why she was employed, so basically, she’s very good at her job.Ever since she resumed work, my assistant has been reporting a missing fund to me but I had them all ignored because the money missing wasn’t much, but this time around, I had it investigated because the money which was lost this time was quite huge and it was nothing I could overlook just like that. I wanted to know the person who’d be so bold to steal from me.My assistant

(Jack’s Pov)As much as I pretended that everything was okay with me, I still had something bothering me, something that haunts me all through the night, it was the thought of Lily.I lied to myself severally that I did the right thing by sending her out for cheating on me but however, something didn’t seem right to me. The doctor’s confirmation of her having twins means that it could be because Jane and I are twins but then I’m not the only one who is a twin, the man she cheated on me with could be too.Sometimes I try to get my mind off from thinking about her but the thought never goes away, it still finds its way into my heart and each time it does, it torments me.When I couldn’t deal with it any longer, I confided in Jane and told her everything that I was going through because she was the only person I could trust at the moment."Do you think I did the right thing?" I asked Jane uncertain."What are you talking about? Don't tell me you're still thinking about her?" I bowed my h
