Jocelyn’s POV

“I got it,” I said, removing the last of mine and Henry's luggage from Nancy's car booth.

We were currently at the airport where Henry and I would catch a direct flight to Australia, leaving everything and everyone behind.

A week had passed since I went to give Eduardo the flash drive, in hopes that watching our sweet moments together would help him regain his memories.

However, I was yet to receive a feedback from either him or the nurse.

Three days ago when I went to visit him, I wasn't allowed to see him. When I asked the nurse about his condition, they told me that he was still the same.

Which meant either Agnes or Sofia had found the flash drive and had disposed it.

Now, I knew there was no hope anymore.

I could already envision Agnes and Sofia taking Eduardo faraway and further poisoning his mind. It hurt me so much that I could barely do anything to help.

The whole thing felt like a nightmare that I desperately wanted to wake up from.

    Eduardo’s POV My heart hammered against my chest as Rafael brought the car to a stop in front of the parking lot.I wasted no time in hopping out of the car. “Good luck, sir,” Rafael said, handing me the car keys. “There's something I need to take care of at the company.”Slapping his back, I said. “Okay, thank you so much, Rafael.” “You are welcome, sir.” He said, before leaving.Inhaling sharply, I gazed at the large expanse of the airport before going in.“Flight 127b will start boarding in thirty minutes. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that we may have caused.” The flight announcement came from the speaker.That was Jocelyn's flight, a voice in my head supplied as I looked around, desperately searching for Jocelyn and Henry.Although I was slightly relieved that I still had time to find her, the fact that she was still not answering her calls made my heart race with several thoughts.What if she had decided to board an earlier, last-minute flight?Sighing heavily,

    Jocelyn’s POV “I don't like that man but he makes you happy so I have no choice but to,” Nancy muttered, as I cinched my bracelet around my wrist.“Thank you for considering my happiness, Nancy.” I said, to which she shrugged.“You are welcome, Josie.” Running my hands down my hips, I stared at my reflection, wondering if my dress wasn't too tawdry for a date.It was a red figure-hugging dress with thin straps for arms and a short frill at the knee where it stopped.“You look good by the way,” Nancy said. “I hope you have fun.”“I hope so too,” I said, my heart slamming against my chest in anxiety. “This reminds me so much of our first date. I had been so anxious that I had nearly stood him up.”“Really?” Nancy asked, as we both walked out of my room.“Yes,” I replied. “Back then, I was a one-eyed outcast who couldn't believe a perfect man like Eduardo was in love with me.”“Aw,” Nancy mused. “Now I can't even be mad at him anymore seeing how in love you seem whenever you speak abou

    Jocelyn’s POV Eduardo's lips were on mine, sucking and begging for complete access into my mouth, as we staggered through the hallway of his house.A whirlwind of pleasure coursed through me, leaving every part of my body deliciously-sensitive as beads of arousal trickled down my inner thighs.As Eduardo had gotten rid of my panties earlier, I was immensely wet and ready for his cock.“Just a minute,” He said, as we reached the door to the bedroom.Scooping me around his waist, he recaptured my lips again, this time with a hotter intensity. Our tongues danced sensually in each other's mouth as our clothes bodies humped, initiating the artful process of lovemaking.Pushing the door open, Eduardo flicked the lights on. Moaning into his mouth, I sort for his erection which was poking my hip, further intensifying the heat of lust simmering within me.“You are gorgeous,’’ He whispered into the kiss. “Fuck, I can't wait to be inside you.”“W-Why are you waiting then?” I asked, throwing my

    Eduardo’s POV “Hi, Eduardo,” Ivy's voice came from the other end as I placed three bottles of wine on the table.“Hey, how are you doing?” I asked, assessing the wine bottled and pondering which was the best choice to gift Jocelyn out of the three.Last night, I was stunned when I got a text message from Jocelyn, detailing how she intended on telling Henry who I truly was. And ever since then, I had been nervous.But in a good way.I highly looked forward to being the best father that could ever be to Henry. I had missed out on five whole years and I knew I probably had big shoes to fill and I intended on doing the best I possibly could for my son.“I'm fine,” Ivy said. “By the way, your whole amnesia period was crazy. Thank goodness I didn't find out about it until everything was over. I would have lost my mind, genuinely.”Chuckling, I returned two bottles of wine to the fridge. “Looking back, it seems funny but at that period, it really wasn't. I had no idea who I was or who I lov

    Jocelyn’s POV As I trekked downstairs, the sound of the washing machine running wafted into my ears, causing me to divert from my initially-planned destination, the kitchen, and making my way to the washroom.I was currently at Eduardo's place. Both of us had taken a week's leave from work, to do nothing but bask in each other's warmth for three days and go on a family vacation for the remaining days.Today made it the second day since I came to his place.Eduardo, Henry, and I were scheduled to leave for Disneyland tomorrow.Walking in, I saw Eduardo feeding dirty laundry into the washing machine, clad in nothing but navy sweatpants, which made something salacious simmer within me.His lips twitched with a smile when he noticed my presence. “Hi, baby. Do you need something?”“Not really,” I said, leering at him like he was a platter of my favourite foods. “But now that I think of it, I might need something.”His muscles flexed and rippled with intense sensuality as he closed the dis

    Eduardo’s POV “What should we have for breakfast?” Jocelyn asked, as I wrapped my arms around her, hugging her closer from behind.“Sex,” I said without thinking.Turning, she darted me a pointed look then sighed. “Who am I fooling? Same.”Chuckling, I threw an arm around her midsection as my lips soughted hers in a torrid smooch. Our tongues battled for supremacy, a pointless fight that Jocelyn easily surrended to.Desire spread through me like wildfire as I tasted Jocelyn's soft, velvety lips, completely lost in how sweet and addictive they were.Throughout yesterday, Jocelyn and I hadn't done anything other than having sex and eating.I was immensely glad that we had both taken that long-deserved leave.As Jocelyn hooked her arm around my neck, an idea struck me and I withdrew from the kiss.Jocelyn didn't seem excited in the slightest by my sudden action as her rosy lips puckered into a pout.Planting a chaste kiss to her lips, I said. “Don't look so mad, baby.

    Jocelyn’s POV “I’m seeing someone,” Ivy uttered, as she took her seat beside me, a simmering cup of ginger tea in her hold. “He's also a doctor. He was recently transferred here from Norway.”“Finally,” I squeaked, clapping my hands together in excitement.“I have to get over Brian somehow, don't I?” She shrugged then took a sip of tea.“Hold on, you are using the new guy as a rebound?” I asked. “Really, Ivy?”“Don't judge me,” Ivy sighed, throwing her hands in surrender. “In all honesty, he's not a rebound because I kind of like him too. He's funny, tall, and handsome.”For peace to reign, I decided against pushing the subject further and instead remain on the current topic which was the new guy.“So how and when did he ask you out?”“Three days ago after we finished a surgery together,” Ivy chuckled. “A romantic to the core, isn't he?”“I guess he is in a way,” I replied.“He told me he got an epiphany during the surgery and realized that life was too short to keep one's feelings h

    Jocelyn’s POV As I flipped through the pages of a maternity book, a knock came on the door of the bedroom before Eduardo let himself in, a smile playing on his handsome face.“Hi, baby. How are you?” He asked, walking over to press a kiss to my lips and forehead.“Good,” I replied, rubbing my gargantuan belly. “The baby is kicking gently today which is quite surprising. If I didn't have an experience with pregnancy, I would have asked you to drive me to the hospital, so we could get her checked.”I was currently in the seventh month and last trimester of my pregnancy, and as much as I loved my unborn baby girl, I couldn't wait for it to come out.Last week, I had found out that I was having a girl via the surprise baby shower Amelia and Ivy had thrown me and I was very excited to meet my little baby girl.However, being cooped up at home for the past three months could be sickening and frustrating because I was always alone in the house.Three months ago during an appointment with my

    Eduardo’s POV Leaning against the doorway of our bedroom, I observed Jocelyn as she laid, cocooned in the blanket, face scrunched up in displeasure and possible ache, which she wouldn't admit.She had been like that for the past five hours and it was currently ten in the morning.I had come home last night to meet Ivy having dinner with the kids and Jocelyn copoed up in bed, burning hot with a temperature.All my efforts to get her to go to the hospital had been in vain, as she had vehemently stated she was fine and didn't need to be assessed by a doctor.Right now, as I looked at her, I mentally admonished myself for listening to her last night, instead of doing a better job of persuading her to see a doctor.“That does it, baby. We are going to the hospital,” I said, and watched her try but fail to sit up.I was instantly at her side, propping a pillow behind her and covering her with the blanket.“Thanks, Ed,” She said then sneezed into the handkerchief in her hand. “I don't need

    Jocelyn’s POV I winced as the back of my head tightened with an excruciating ache, stifling the urge to groan in pain.“The sales memo and the quarterly report were thoroughly reviewed and evaluated by me yesterday, so everything should be perfect,” The team leader of sales department, Micheal Gould, said into the microphone, aggravating my migraine.“Okay, that's good.’ I forced myself to say, balling my hands into fists and placing it on my lap.I couldn't help but wonder why I had such a bad headache that afternoon, as the voices in the conference room blurred, and the sound of my heart thumping filled my ears.My mouth was hot, my lips numb, and my body warm as the ache intensified.I had woken up hale and hearty today, excited for the start of a new work week, and mine and Eduardo's impending dinner that was supposed to happen later today.But given how I seemed to have fallen ill all of a sudden, I knew the dinner would likely not happen anymore.The mere thought of it was beyo

    Eduardo’s POV “It's been less than a year since I left yet it feels like a decade has passed,” Jocelyn said, one hand out of the window and her eyes squeezed shut as the wind tousled her long, auburn hair.Even though she couldn't see it, I darted her a smirk before turning my attention to the road.We were currently in Australia for the week, as Henry and Olivia were currently on summer break.Jocelyn and I had decided to take them to Australia, mainly because we wanted to expose Olivia to the country and stuff.Due to the sick plan Nancy had pulled, she had been unable to spend time in Australia with her mother and sibling.Although that was in the past now, I couldn't help but feel vitriolic anger toward both Nancy and Sofia whenever I thought about it.But as Jocelyn had told me the other day, focusing on the bad things that happened in the past instead of being pleased and grateful with one's current situation, wasn't the right thing to do.I had Jocelyn and my wonderful childre

We promised to focus on the positive part, didn't we?” I chided myself, using the back of my hand to wipe off my tears.Just then, the bathroom door creaked and Eduardo walked out.“Babe, what time are we picking up the cake?

    Jocelyn’s POV “Ivy, you know I will never judge you, right?” I asked her.“Yes, I know. Where's this coming from?” She replied with a question of her own which made me huff.“Cut it out, Ivy. It's been three weeks since you told me about whatever happened between you and Brian at the wedding,” I said, and she sighed. “Ever since then, you have been seemingly avoiding coming over to our place. What is going on, Ivy?”There was silence for a couple of moments that I almost thought Ivy had hung up on him.As I removed my phone to check if the call was still ongoing, she sighed again. “I will tell you everything in due time, Josie. It's kinda a serious matter.”“Are you pregnant and he's refusing to accept it?” I blurted out the first question that came to mind.“No, of course not,” She replied, sounding amused. “We had sex that night.”“Oh,” I said, suddenly at a loss for words.I mean, it was very evident, given the sexual tension between them that something like that may or may not ha

Today is Sports day at the kindergarten and my children will not forgive me if I fail to show up,” I divulged. “I already missed their final practice last week because I had to close the Braxton deal.”“Perhaps we should just postpone today's meeting then.” Amelia suggested, and I shook my head in negation.“No, we can't do that. I have been postponing this meeting for three months now,” I replied. “I want to get it done and over with. Plus work starts at the sight in about a week from now.”The meeting was to discuss my latest area of investment; the wine industry.I had taken an interest in the industry after I mistakenly made a bottle of grape wine.
