Gabriel Oh, Mr. Shane Evans, you will not be able to find anything. By the time you do find it I will be long gone, with Maddison finally having forgiven me for my sinful deed. I will make sure that I will show up at every place possible until she has had enough, and I am satisfied with the sincerity of her forgiveness towards me. I wonder how long it will take them to figure out that there is a hidden camera in her house. That is how I knew about the engagement party. Maddison had no idea that I planted a hidden device in one of her plants. She could never keep up with taking care of any plant anyway. Seeing that she had fake ones was icing on the cake to go with my plan. So they’re going to search for a place to live, huh? I wonder if I can get my Real Estate License. It should seem easy enough, right? I begin looking on my phone for courses in Real Estate since I have some time. It will be awhile before they find something that Maddison will love. I know Maddison she is ver
Gabriel and I have been married for five years and everything was going smoothly as a sailing thread. However, that was not until she surfaced with malicious intent. This woman had disrupted my blissful marriage. She was my worst nightmare, an experience I will never want to recall.No, how could you do this to us?” This can't be happening, not when I am just starting to get my nursing career off the ground, My hands covered my ears as the words were departing his lips. Impossible. I would rather not listen to anything Gabriel was saying. It… can't be. How had he managed to get another woman pregnant? Why am I focusing on this woman when my focus should be on him, my husband? He decided this woman was more important than our five-year marriage. “Maddison…” He says my name, but it feels disgusting leaving his mouth. I screamed at him…Don’t you fucking dare say my name!! Reaching for the beer bottle beside me and hitting him over the head with it. It had left him with a slight
Our cars stop in the middle of the road, and we are throwing insults at each other back and forth. We then stopped reluctantly when a line of cars told us to get out of the middle of the road. I drove and parked in the nearest abandoned parking lot. She parks, too, but not too close to my car. “How does it feel getting pregnant for a married man way out of your age limit? I snarked”.Oh, you must be Gabriel's wife. “I saw your wedding photo on his desk.” With a smug on her face, looking at me up and down. Then you know that you should not have been having an affair with a married man. Well, according to him, you weren't doing what you were supposed to do as a wife. I slapped her for saying that remark and for sleeping with my husband. She winces from the sting of the slap. Excuse you, I happen to have a career as a nurse, and every so often I work twelve-hour shifts. Why am I even explaining myself to you? Damn, this bitch needs a good beating that will land her in the asylum. You
Madison's P. O. VThe next morning, I woke up with a severe hangover. Ahh, my aching head. I am never getting drunk again. I don't remember anything that happened last night. Not only that, but I just hope that I made it home after what Gabriel confessed to me. I tried to get up, but I was still dizzy from drinking too much. I lay back down and waited for my head to stop spinning. Then I see that I'm on a nice, comfy couch. A couch what the hell, why am I on a couch? Oh well, I must have fallen asleep on a couch in the hotel room to sleep because of the alcohol. That is when I decided to stretch to ease my body of some tension. As I am stretching, I feel this hard body next to me. Then I look and see that there is a man behind me with his arm around my waist on top of a blanket. Then I take a look under the blanket and notice that I am naked. As I got up, I noticed what, I thought, was a hotel room in Gabriel's office. Oh my god! What did I do last night? His office is a wreck. The
Gabriel's P.O.V.Seeing her slam the door so hard, my heart sank. I have never seen Maddie in this state before. Oh right, I cheated. What did I expect? I went to the sofa and sat trying to think of a way to reverse this, though impossible. I still had to try “What did I do?” “Why did I have to sleep with Emily, my secretary?” asking questions I already had the answer to. I know why she was there; I was feeling down about Maddison waiting to have kids. Emily said, if she were my wife, she wouldn’t make me wait. Sleeping with her this past year was a good idea, and it did make me feel better for a while, I had to admit. Then Maddison found out and now everything has gone to hell in a handbasket, and it is all my fault. I don’t even know if I can fix it or if she will ever forgive me. I had to find a way to get her to forgive me, even if I had to crawl on my knees. Not only that, but I decided to head home after waking up to Leon, the bar owner. Whom I slept with in Gabriel’s off
I decided to give this counseling thing a try for the sake of our marriage. We were going at least once a week and doing the exercises the marriage counselor had suggested. However I kept thinking to myself, can I really trust him again? What if he decides to have another office affair? Tell me what would you do in my situation? To answer my own question it is no. I don't think I will be able to trust him again.So, I decided to make dinner one last time and set the table. I hear Gabriel come in, then I tell him to come into the dining room and sit down. Hmmm, something smells good honey. I made your favorite pot roast with vegetables. Oh! wow thank you honey. What is the occasion? Nothing really, I just wanted to talk to you. Okay, what is this about?I have made a decision when it comes to our marriage. I could tell that he was getting nervous. What decision might that be? This marriage counseling is not working and I have been doing some thinking. Now I want a divorce. “Can't we f
After my divorce, I wanted to keep the house, but I decided to sell it and Gabriel and I could split the profits. There were just too many memories and I wanted a fresh start, so I decided to start looking for a nursing job in a different city and state. It took about six months for the house to sell. During those six months, I was offered a job. I needed to leave this godforsaken town and have a fresh, brand-new start. Then I got that call from Dayton Community Women's Clinic here in Ohio with great pay and excellent benefits. I don't start my new job until next week. Now I am in my hotel room wondering if I should order in or go out to eat. Then I decided, heck, why not go out to eat? Now here I am driving around town in a new city looking for the best place to eat. I googled the nearest restaurant to the hotel I was staying at, it was about a thirty-minute drive. The restaurant is called Flow. From what I read, it got 4.5 stars out of 5. Now that is a place I would like to go to
When I arrived at the restaurant, Flow at 7:00 p.m. I'm greeted by the same hostess with a smile who sat at a table the first time I was here. Desmond has been waiting for you, she says. He has reserved a table just for you, Ms. Wong. Oh, I say, how kind of him to do that. She takes me back to a small area, which, I assume, is for the VIPs. I take a seat and the hostess leaves, but I never did quite catch her name either. She comes back with a glass of red wine and a seafood appetizer. Excuse me I say, I don't mean to be rude, but can I get your name, please? My name is Izzy, she says. Is it short for Isabella and she replies yes? Well, nice to meet you, Izzy.Then I tell her that she is doing a fantastic job as a hostess. Thank you, is there anything else that I can get you? No, not right at this moment. Alright, just let me know I will be your server as well tonight since we're short on staff. I'll be right back with your food, better yet, Mr. Greene will bring the food out to you h

I can’t believe you kept that secret from me this whole time while speaking to my mother. You mean to tell me all the talk about waiting until you get married was a lie? I’m sorry, honey, we thought it was best to keep it to ourselves. Well, good job, not only did you lie, you and Dad are both hypocrites. Don’t you dare say that about your father. He did the best he could to provide for us. If he were here, he would tell you the same thing. Anyway, I am going to lay down. Suddenly, it is a bit too stuffy in here. Hello, anyone, I am still here. Gabriel, what are you still doing here? I thought I told you to leave. Yes, you did tell me that. Then why haven’t you left? Well, you said that I can stay until morning, then leave after your mom made something to eat for me. I look at Shane, asking him, did I say that? Yes, you did, babe responding back. I am beginning to think that I have a pregnancy brain from what I read in what to expect when expecting. You know what, maybe I nee
Maddison, what is Gabriel talking about? What is this unspoken secret between the two you? Go on Maddison, I am surprised you didn’t tell your mom or Shane. Well, I know why you didn’t tell her. As far as your husband here you did not bother to say anything to him before you two got hitched. Gabriel, you are walking on thin ice. Huh, I am already there Maddison don’t you see the invisible thread that I am hanging by. I’ve lost everything that I have ever loved. You mean to tell that you actually loved Emily. No, of course not, I wasn’t talking about her. Then who were you talking about? I was talking about you and my two dead sons. Wait, Shane says looking shocked you have two sons who are deceased and will not get to see grow up. Yep, I sure as hell do. Alright, this ends right now. Maddison I am your husband now. I believe I am entitled to know about what happened between the two of you before you both married each other. Your right you do have the right to know because we sho
“You don’t get to say those words after what you have done to her.” “I know what I did, and I have apologized several times to her, but she won’t accept it.” And coming to our engagement party unannounced did not help anything in your forgiveness from her. How did you even find out about the party anyway? It was a private affair and invitations only. Oh, I have my ways, he says with a smirk on his face. You dodged a bullet with me because I would have kicked your ass if the police hadn’t shown up. You know Shane, I was going to convince her to come back to me, then you pressed charges. I was in jail for a good week before she came to see me. That is because I did not want Maddison to see you. We had got into a big argument about it, but she insisted. I even had forbidden her to see you. That was the wrong move or should I say wrong choice of words. Let me guess Maddison went crazy when you forbid her from doing something. Yes, she did, I told him. Yep, that is Maddison for yo
Shane’s POV When my mother-in-law said that I went ahead and put the dishes in the sink. Of course, I had a feeling of what I knew was coming. After sitting down at the dining table. Phong starts talking to me, I just want you to know that I don’t blame you for the way you reacted to the news of Madison’s pregnancy. However, you could have done it differently. I know I have apologized to her profusely. That is good to know because I would rather not see my baby upset. She has been through too much already, and the way you behaved was not the kind of man I want for my daughter. Furthermore, I had told Maddison to tell you she was pregnant before the wedding happened. Wait, you knew about the pregnancy and didn’t tell me. It wasn’t my place to tell you Shane. That was for Maddison to do. I know my daughter can be stubborn, but she is a good woman. I know she is Phong, that is how come I love her she is smart, beautiful, and funny. She could have had a chance with me when we were
Shane, I think that we need to make an emergency landing, I don’t feel so well. At that moment, I start feeling pain in my stomach and double over because it hurts. He informs the pilot to make an emergency stop. He hails a cab to take us to the nearest hospital. In the hospital room, the doctor is doing some tests because there was a little bleeding. Are the babies okay I ask the doctor? We will let you know as soon as we run a few more tests, Mrs. Evans. Doctor, please do what you can to help my wife. Money is of no expense to us. I will inform you two of the results as soon as they come back from the lab. I want to do an ultrasound as well to make sure everything is going smoothly. The doctor comes back with the ultrasound machine, he puts the warm jelly on my stomach. Let’s take a look here and see what the problem is. He loves the wand around, oh I see that you are expecting quadruplets. Yes, we are, and we were flying in from our honeymoon when I felt the pain. Luckily for y
Shane’s POV My brother Desmond was right I was being an asshole all because Maddison had waited until our honeymoon to tell me I will be a father. I couldn’t believe what a jerk I had been, and she wanted to make it special for me to receive the news. Now I need to stop by the flower shop to get her favorite flowers, apologize and tell her what a jerk I was. Ryan took me to the nearest flower shop. You got it sir. We found the flower shop a couple of blocks down from the hotel. I go inside looking for roses since that is her favorite flower. The florist comes up to me, asks me how she can help me? I tell her that I am looking for roses for my wife. Ah, I see, mind if I ask what happened? It is unclear to me why, but I ended up telling her the story of how she shared with me that she was pregnant. The florist says to me, you’re a moron, and she needs more than roses for her to accept your apology. She looks around the shop for the flowers and something else. Ahhh, yes, here w
The reception was spectacular, numerous people eating and dancing the night away. Before we knew it, it was time for me to toss the bouquet and for Shane to do the garter toss. I have to say that there had been a good amount of single men and single women here. Of course, the majority were nurses I worked with. Shane has his coworkers and a few of his employees on the floor as well. I tossed my bouquet first and one of the nurses caught it. Then, as usual as tradition would have it, Shane for the garter off my leg. Then tossed it, one of his employees caught it. It was time for us to change to go to our destination honeymoon. Everyone waved goodbye as we left. Not before my mother-in-law whispered in my ear, please be careful as to how you tell him. I nod my head smiling, waving again, heading towards the waiting limo. How do you feel now about being married to the most eligible bachelor? It feels absolutely astonishing I responded. Where are we going for our honeymoon, I asked hi
A month and a half later we are in the venue getting ready to stand before the family and friends. However, I feel that something is off. I ask Sandy if Shane has shown up yet for our wedding. No, he has not shown up yet. Can you please go see what is taking so long? I am ready to get married. You don’t to think he is getting cold feet, do you? Of course not as she tries to ease my mind. Did Shane tell you that he had something to do last minute? No, he did not tell me anything. All he said I have something to do, and I will be there in time for our wedding and that was yesterday. Hmm, I wonder what could be so important that he can’t make it on time to his wedding. I don’t know, but once he does get here he better have a good excuse for keeping me waiting or else I will pulverize him. Now Maddison don’t do anything harsh you know getting upset is not good for you and the baby. You mean babies, I mention to her. Sandy turns me around looks at me shockingly, then asks me what you
