Reymond Lingard didn't know how his life turned completely upsidedown, his crazy obsession for his daughter-in-law made him go insane. Nothing was more important than having Jesse Lingard who was his daughter-in-law in his life..his relationship with his son turned sour as the woman he yearned for was his son's wife.. "Listen son, Jesse is just a woman, don't let her bring enmity between us, give up on her and leave her for me..I gave up my entire life for you and the only woman who gave me happiness was taken away by you.. now it just so happened that you got married to her.. do you expect me to stand for it? Can't you give up this one thing that I ask of you as a father?" Zain sighed helplessly, he knew the affair that took place years ago between his wife and father but for the fact that he loved Jesse and she was already his wife, there was nothing he could do. "Dad, we both know there is little or absolutely nothing I can do about this. Learn how to live with it. I understand you gave me your kidney but that was because you are my father" "Zain, you have two options here, it's either you give up on Jesse or you give me my pound of flesh...I don't care about the circumstances before" Mr Lingard yelled crazily. What will the fate of this turn out to be like?

The strange man kept silent and smiled. " I am sorry for being rude, my name is Reymond or you can call me Rey....I was seated right opposite your balcony. I am sure you noticed my presence since your house is not so high" Reymond spoke in a playful tone.Jesse who had her hands folded, didn't know what this man really wanted, she began to feel irritated and said no word.taking another look at him, he was around her father's age and she wondered what this man wanted from her.Reymond saw no reaction from the young lady and cleared his throat before he could continue talking.. "you see I have been watching you so I..."excuse me sir, I am sorry but I have no time to chit-chat with you. I am sure my father sent you to keep an eye on me. you don't have to worry, tell him that i am fine" Jesse interrupted Reymond's next words then turned to leave."uhm hey! wait a second young lady.

"oh, I am sorry about that, I didn't mean to...."it's fine Jesse, you don't have to worry about it" Rey interrupted.Both Rey and Jesse kept silent making the situation a little uncomfortable."oh well, I have to get going now. I have a meeting in about 30 minutes. I see you some time" Jesse said this and walked away. she felt rather uncomfortable having to make Rey mention his late wife. No one likes to talk about death especially if it's about their loved ones...only a few would actually talk about in a relaxed way. losing her mother at a young age hit Jesse badly. Her father made time for her but that didn't dispute the fact that he was mostly busy.After a few days, the two got talking and began to get fond of each other. Mr Lee noticed his daughter's recent behavior and took a deep look at her.Jesse had no idea she was being glared at by her father. she was smiling and seemed to be enjoying the conversation she was having on phone."I hope the boy making my daughter happy is

So, Rey is good looking although he is around my father's age, he isn't boring or anything of that sort. He makes me happy and he is everything I have ever wanted. caring, loving, considerate, talented, and just unique in his own way. He makes me feel so alive and I can't explain the kind of feelings I have towards him" Jesse explained.Clara was silent for some seconds before responding, "And you think your father will allow his only daughter to be with a man who is the same age as himself? I know they say age is just a number but darling, I think you should be patient and wait a little longer. your man will

CHAPTER FIVE

Jesse felt so ashamed and wished she could just burry herself under ground. She couldn't look Rey in the eyes. She played around with her hands not knowing what to do or say.Rey smirked, "your friend is really something else....I like her guts. Let her come back, I will leave. in case you need anything, I will be in the next room. Rey said this and prepared to leave."hey wait! how is it that you own a chopper? when I met you, you-i didn't see you drive or anything. and now, you suddenly own a chopper?" Rey smiled, "point of correction, it's not sudden. you just never bothered to pay attention to certain things. you looked at how I was dressed and because I am always in casual clothes, you assumed I was a simple man who owned nothing right??" Jesse kept silent without responding....she felt so ashamed."as the old saying goes, never judge a book by its cover. Never look down on anyone either. you should rest now. we will talk more tomorrow" Rey said this and walked away. Jesse loo

"oh oh if it isn't my one and only god father, who else could make such an appearance" Clara spoke so highly of her god father."how you like to sing praises to me when you are guilty of doing something" Mr Lee responded as he stood to his feet and hugged his god-daughter Clara pouted , "but Dad, it's not fair...I am so happy being here and I'm in a good mood yet you refuse to take my praises?" Jesse walked up to her father and smiled dryly, "Dad, what are you doing here? I thought I told you not to follow me around come on Dad, we need some space" Jesse spoke."oh, I see.. you want me to give you all the freedom in the world so you can mess yourself up with that old fool? over my dead body will I allow such a thing to happen " Mr Lee spoke in a cold tone which sent shivers down Jesse's spine. Clara trembled as she knew her god-father was was extremely angry."Jesse, I tell you now and today that if you want to be with that old fool, you will have to point a gun to my head and make

CHAPTER EIGHT

Jesse kept silent, of course this was the response she expected from her father. She just kept silent and decided that she was going to fight for her love. As soon as the driver pulled over upon arrival, Jesse opened the car door and ran straight to the house."Jesse! Jesse don't think of doing anything stupid! Mr Lee yelled as he saw his daughter's figure disappear.He slowly walked to the house and went in.... before he could go to his study, he thought twice about it and decided to just sit in the living room to see if his daughter would go out. Jesse who ran straight to her room parked a few of her clothes, grabbed her briefcase that had about a $100,000 in cash and grabbed her purse containing all her bank cards. She had no intentions of ever coming back to her father's house. She grabbed her luggage and walked to the living room where she mate eye-bow to eye-bow with her father. Looking at the rage that was fuming in her father's eye's, Jesse averted her father's gaze and dro

CHAPTER NINE

"listen Jesse just calm down okay? like I said before, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me but look at how things turned out to be? I know the worry of a father towards his child and I see that your father will never accept us being together...I mean, no father would accept this... only a few countable ones would accept but majority of the men out there would never accept this for their daughters. Seeing all this from your father's angle, I understand him, he only wants the best for you princess" Rey spoke in a calm tone."you are my best Rey! I said you are my damn best! I need you Rey. you mean the world to me...I had an argument with my Dad for the first time in my life all because of you and I chose to leave the house. As I speak to you right now, I am at Clara's apartment and you have to come and pick me up. let's leave far away where no one can find us" Jesse spoke in a convincing tone."no, no running away from my problems will never put an end to them. Do you t

CHAPTER TEN

"god-father, why? why would you hide and put this wolf behind, he needs to take account of his actions" Clara said angrily."well, the truth of the matter is that this man used Jesse to get to me. His companies and other businesses were crumbling and he needed funds but due to his inability at the time, he couldn't get any loan. Meeting Jesse for the first time, he said he genuinely liked her but after finding out about her identity, he decided to capitalize on her and use her to get to me. He knew I would never accept them being together....in short, this imbecile had everything all planned. I highly doubt he even liked Jesse from the beginning. Clara, I feel like I have failed as a father. everything seems to be complicated. Even if I wanted to tell Jesse, I am afraid I can't, you know how she complains about her identity and if she finds out that Rey got close to her because of her identity, it will completely break her and she will lose all hope of being happy".
