Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Rescue mission
Jocelyn’s POV I was utterly terrified and shaken up as Damien let me go and subsequently fell to the ground with a heavy thud.With my heart in my stomach, I turned to face his unmoving form on the ground. There was a gunshot wound in his chest and his mouth was agape, gasping for breath.Kneeling beside him, a policeman felt his pulse and said. “He's gone. Paramedics are almost here.”Almost immediately, paramedics arrived and put Damien in a body bag before taking him away.Another policeman grabbed the gun as Eduardo came up behind me and hugged me from behind.“You are okay, baby,” He whispered. “I'm here now.”Tears pooled in my eyes as I turned to face him. “I missed you so much, Eduardo. I was so scared.”“I'm so sorry it took me this long, Jocelyn. I promise to protect you with my life henceforth.” Eduardo said, pressing a kiss to my forehead.“I love you.” I said, as he hugged me to his chest. “I love you more, baby.”Inhaling lungfuls of his musky masculine cologne, I grab

Jocelyn’s POV “How are you doing today, Miss Roswell?” My doctor, Doctor Radcliff, asked as she wrote something on her notepad.“Pretty good,” I said, looking at Eduardo who darted me a smile and squeezed my hand gently. “In fact, I don't feel weak or dehydrated at all. Will I be discharged today?”“That's great to hear,” Doctor Radcliff said. “And yes, you are going home today. According to the test results, your electrolyte levels are now stable, so there's no cause for alarm anymore.”“Thank goodness.”“Will we be going to Disneyland soon?” Henry asked, coming to my side, causing the three of us to laugh heartily.“Yes, baby,” I said, ruffling his hair. “But before then, you need to meet someone special.”It was almost noon and the police were yet to bring Olivia to me, which worried me greatly. Various unhinged scenarios about everything going wrong had been playing in my head ever since I woke up today.I really should have insisted on seeing her yesterday.“Who?” Henry asked,

Jocelyn’s POV Stirring the simmering pot of vegetable rice on the gas cooker, I glanced at the wall clock.Eduardo would get here in about ten minutes, and I wanted to make sure that I had put all the foods in dishes before his arrival.Today was our first dinner as a family with Olivia and I wanted to make it a fun and exciting experience.Despite the fact that Olivia was a chatty and friendly kid, I could tell she was still having a slightly hard time adjusting to her new environment.Take for example, earlier today at breakfast, she had eaten a tiny portion of the waffles and maple syrup that I served, saying eating too much carbohydrates wasn't good for her because it'd make her obese.She later told me that Sofia had taught her portioning at a very young age because she wanted her to be fit.For a good moment, I was speechless because I couldn't comprehend why someone would speak to a child like that.Sofia was really an insane person and I couldn't imagine what Olivia must have

Eduardo’s POV “Hello, Mr Lopez,” The female receptionist at Roshome greeted as I strode in.“Hi, there. Is she in?” I asked, to which she nodded.“Yes, sir.”“Alright, thank you.”Today was Jocelyn's first day back at work, so I had decided to drop by to surprise her with something small; a gift hamper.On reaching the door to Jocelyn's office, I knocked thrice and waited for a response.“Come in,” Her sweet voice came from within, causing me to smile fondly as I walked in.“Hi, ba-” I started to say but paused when I saw Jocelyn having a meeting with Amelia. “Hi, Miss Molloy.”“Good day, Mr Lopez,” Amelia said, standing up. “I will bring the revised documents to you later today, ma'am.”Afterward, she left.“What have you got there?” Jocelyn asked, motioning to the hamper as I walked up to her seat and kissed her.“Dildos and butt plugs.” I said, without batting an eyelid, causing her to choke on nothing.Gently rubbing her back, I chuckled. “Take it easy, baby.”“You are such a tea
Last Updated : 2024-10-25Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Disneyland
Jocelyn’s POV “Are you happy to be in Disneyland?” I asked Henry and Olivia as Eduardo pulled the car to a stop in the parking lot.“Yes!” They said in unison, which made Eduardo and I smile.After several weeks of trials and tribulations, our family was finally in Disneyland, Paris.“I heard there's a nice Mexican restaurant beside the Aladdin building, we could stop by to grab something later. What do you think?” “I think it's perfect. It's been so long since I had Mexican.” I said, as we walked to the sleeping beauty castle.After purchasing our tickets, we headed to our destination, where we met the sleeping beauty and prince charming. The four of us took pictures with them before Henry and Olivia took single ones with them.Thereafter, we headed to the Aladdin's cave where we met Aladdin and Jasmine. We also had the opportunity to see the magic carpet and the alleged jug that the genie used.“Mummy, can you buy me an Aladdin jug?” Henry asked, gazing at me with doe eyes. “It w

Jocelyn’s POV “Hold on,” I said as Eduardo swerved his car into an unfamiliar path. “This isn't the way to your place. Where are we going?”Placing his free hand on mine, he said. “Our new house, baby. When I told you that I wanted us to start all over, I meant it in all aspects. I sold my former house because I want us to have a completely new beginning.”My heart warmed as my lips twitched a smile at his utterance. “Really?”“Yes, my love,” He raised our intertwined hands and pressed a kiss to my knuckles. “Now I can't wait to see our new home,” I darted him a smile which he mirrored before returning his focus to the road.Olivia and Henry on the other hand were deeply engrossed in a muffled conversation that seemed serious.“Mummy,” Olivia called, and I turned to face her.“Yes?”Hearing her call me “mummy” still seemed slightly surreal but I loved it regardless.Sometimes I couldn't believe that I now had two adorable and perfect children.“How old are you?” She asked, slightly
Last Updated : 2024-11-01Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Judgment day
Eduardo’s POV “You know it's not too late to change your mind, right?” I asked Jocelyn as we headed out of the house together.Today was Nancy and Sofia's final hearing and sentencing day.Although I was more than elated about today because the two criminals would finally get what they deserved, I was worried about Jocelyn.Sure she probably abhorred a lot of resentment toward Nancy for her betrayal, I knew there was a tiny part of her that still wished Nancy had never changed.I mean, it was obvious since the day began.She had been so clumsy that she had nearly cut herself while slicing plantains that morning, and had gone on to burn herself while removing food from the oven as she had forgotten to wear mittens.“And I have countlessly reassured you that I'm fine,” Jocelyn snapped. “Do you think of me as a baby or what?”“In a sense, you are my baby,” I said to lighten up the mood. However, that didn't work as Jocelyn's expression turned furious then relaxed into a solemn countena

Jocelyn’s POV “Alright then, I'll talk to you soon. My regards to Eduardo and my babies. Bye,” Ivy said, as Eduardo sat beside me on the couch, handing me a glass of wine.“Bye, dear. Take care.” I replied before ending the call.“Was that Ivy?” Eduardo asked, wrapping his arm around me as I reached for the TV remote.“Yes, and she said to give you her regards,’’ I replied, my focus rooted to the TV as my favorite Spanish soap opera was about to start.I started watching Spanish soap operas ever since I was eleven. I would sneak into my mum's bedroom and sit beside her while she watched, completely oblivious to the outside world.Spanish soap operas had helped my mum a lot when my dad died. She had resorted to them as a form of coping mechanism, and somehow, I had also adopted the habit.“Is this the one with Juanita and Carlos?” Eduardo asked.Taking my gaze away from the TV for a moment, I nodded, giving him a taunting huff. “I thought you didn't like watching my soap operas.

Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Family of five
Jocelyn’s POV I woke up to the sound of machines beeping next to me.As I winked an eye open, a tangy antiseptic smell infiltrated my line of smell, causing me to scrunch my nose in distaste for a moment.After a while, I squeezed my eyes open and squinted instantly as sunlight diffracted through the window panes, into my eyes.Looking around, I realized that I was in a hospital room, and also experiencing numbness from my waist down which made me put two and two together as I stared at my moderately big stomach.Melon was out.I managed a weak smile as I clasped my hands together before something clicked in my head.My baby wasn't with me.As I made to rip the IV off my wrist and go in search of a doctor, the door opened and my obstetrician, Dr Wineheart, walked in, clad in grey scrubs.“You are finally awake,” He said. “Welcome back to life.”“Thanks,” I replied. “Where's my baby?”Sure, I had managed to get over the trauma of losing a child the first and second time, but I knew I
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Birth
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Silly questions
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me News
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Sick
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Meeting the parents
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Birthday
Jocelyn’s POV I inhaled shakily as I stroked my fingers across the framed picture of Henry and Olivia on the nightstand.In a few hours time, my babies would turn six and ten years from now on, they would be in high school.Another two years later, they would be in college and before I knew it, they would have their respective families.Of course I knew a day like that was still several years away, I couldn't help but feel a sort of bittersweet emotion at the mere thought.To think about six years ago, they and their brother in heaven, had been in my belly, wrapped around each other, small, tiny, pink, and completely helpless was so heartbreaking yet heartwarming.“Come on, Josie. 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? Ivy s-” He began to say but stopped when he sighted me.Sighing, he closed the di
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Gratitude
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
Dear Billionaire Ex, You Don’t Own Me Sports day
Jocelyn’s POV “Is everyone ready?” I asked Amelia as I swiped my lipgloss across my lower lip.“Yes, ma'am,” She replied. “Alright then. Let's be on our way,” I replied, stowing the lipgloss away into my drawer. “This meeting has to end in thirty minutes. Forty five max.”“Oh, are you going somewhere, Miss?”“Yes. 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. On the day, Henry a
