Eduardo’s POV Gazing at my sullen reflection in the mirror, I exhaled heavily as I thought of how I ruined my once happy life with my own hands.Although I didn't want to admit it, I knew the possibility of me ever getting Jocelyn back was zero. I had seen the way her eyes burned with vitriolic hatred whenever she looked at me.How she gazed at me with intense disgust and disdain.I deserved it of course for everything I had put her through in the past, but I just couldn't help but feel bad and miserable.Nothing was known about Henry 's dad and it made me greatly unnerved.As I donned my coat, a funny thought strayed into my mind; what if Henry was my son?“You have finally lost it,” I said aloud. “There's no way that can be possible.”But then again, Henry seemed to be about five years of age, and Jocelyn and I had divorced within that time range.What if she had been pregnant when I ended our marriage like the despicable loser that I was?But she had survived a tragic accident af
Jocelyn’s POV “Hi, babes,” I said as I trekked into my office and plopped onto my swivel chair. “How is Texas treating you?” Nancy huffed from the other end of the lined from the other end of the line. “Not so nice since I've not had the chance to visit some fun places. I've been going from seminars to seminars ever since I got here.” “Sorry, Nan. Don't worry, we'll go on a weekend getaway to Texas as soon as I finish my business here in America.” I reassured her. “Alright, babe. That reminds me, how is the whole partnership with Eduardo going? I hope he hasn't done anything stupid.” She uttered, and I smiled. “It's going well. I barely see him unless It's business-related,” I said. “And no, he won't dare do something stupid.” “That's good. You know I still don't understand how exactly you plan to revenge on him,” Nancy said. “To me, this joint venture seems too risky. What if you end up falling for him again?” I burst out into a peal of laughter as I imagined myself fal
Eduardo’s POV “You know what,” Jocelyn said. “Nevermind, it's none of my business. I don't care.” Although her nonchalance broke my heart, I tried not to show it. “What are you doing here, Mr Edardo?” Henry asked, as he regarded me closely. Our son. Henry was really our son. Jocelyn and I truly had a connection that was greater than everything; we had an adorable little boy together. “Actually, Henry,” I started. “I live here now and I've been living here for the past three days. Do you live here too?” “Oh, cut it out, actor of the year,” Jocelyn snapped. “We both know the reason why you moved here.” “A renovation is being done on my house at the moment and I had nowhere else to go,” I fibbed. “Thus you decided to move to the exact place where I live. Do you even know how odd that sounds?” Jocelyn scoffed, shaking her head as one would a petulant child. I had less than five months to win her back, and I had barely made progress. But something in me was confident that
Jocelyn’s POV “I don't get why you're so worried about this, Amelia,” I huffed as Amelia and I entered my office. “It's just work. Nothing more.” “While I trust your judgment, I don't exactly trust that Eduardo Lopez. What if he tries to do something weird since you will both be alone?” Amelia countered, and I sighed, mulling over the possibility of that happening. Right now, Eduardo was the person I hated most in my life, and I would be the stupidest woman on earth to allow myself to get carried away by his suave charm. Like hell no, I didn't care about him in that way at all. I didn't spend my free time thinking about how larger his biceps had become or how sexy his undercut was. Hell to the fucking no. Get it together, Josie and stop thirsting over that man, I chided myself harshly. The reason why Amelia was so worried was because today was the day that Eduardo and I would decide on the official name and concept of our joint business venture, and Eduardo had offered
Jocelyn’s POV “You look absolutely ravishing, babes,” Nancy beamed as I trekked downstairs. “Damien will not be able to take his eyes off you throughout your date.” A dull yet wrenching feeling crept into my heart at her utterance but I pushed it down and returned her smile. “Really?” I asked, twirling around. “Yes, the teal really compliments your porcelain skin,” Nancy reassured. “And the diamond earrings were made for you and you only. I've never seen a more perfect hairdo than this french bun.” She gestured to my hair. “You're too kind with compliments.” I grinned, to which she chuckled. “I'm being tame with it, honestly,” She responded, holding my hands. “Babes, it's your first date in almost a decade and I wish you nothing but luck. Damien is nothing short of a nice guy unlike that jerk.” I swallowed harshly as the memory of the kiss that almost happened between Eduardo and I yesterday, strayed into mind, sending vibrating sensations down my crotch. As much as I
Jocelyn’s POV Exhaling heavily, I removed the last of the three grocery bags in my car trunk then stood with my hands akimbo, wondering how I was supposed to take them up to my condo.I had called Nancy for help as she was currently at my place babysitting Henry, but she wasn't picking up, so I had sent a text to her which was still left on delivered.“Where are you, Nan?” I mumbled to myself as I raked my fingers through my hair.“Hey, can I help?” The deep baritone of the bane of my existence wafted into my ears from behind, causing me to flap my eyes shut, as my temples pounded with a looming headache.Squeezing my eyes open, I threw him an expressionless look. “No, it's fine. I can manage.”Huffing, Eduardo walked up to me in a casual outfit, consisting of a pair of black sweatpants with a black tank top, leaving his big, toned muscles on shameless display.He had probably gone for a morning jog, my mind unhelpfully supplied, as I noticed his running shoes plus the way the tank t
Jocelyn's POV “Mummy, can I help?” Henry asked, as I swept the floor with a vacuum cleaner. “No, sweetheart. Thank you,” I darted him a smile before switching off the device and returning it to its designated spot, by the door.Today was Sunday–a free day for the both of us, and as usual, my plan was to spend some quality time with Henry.Afterward, I sat on the couch beside him to watch his favorite cartoon, Alvin and the chipmunks, with him. Just then a staggering headache gripped the back of my head, almost snapping it into half, and I winced, as I caressed the site of the ache, while inwardly willing it away.Fortunately, the pain dissipated in minutes and I was able to concentrate on watching the cartoon.“Mummy, can I ask you a question?” Henry suddenly averted his concentration on me, which startled me, but I nodded anyway.“Yes, baby. Ask away.”“Promise me you won't get mad,” He pouted. “It's about Mr Edardo.”At the mention of his name, my heart leapt with something inexp
Jocelyn's POV “How many babies do you want us to have?” Eduardo asked, as we strolled along a beach in Greece, hands intertwined.We were currently there on our honeymoon, and I was having the best time of my life, with the man who loved me more than anything in this world.“I don't know,” I shrugged. “But I want to have chunky and adorable babies.”“Oh, yeah?” Eduardo chuckled, and I beamed, nodding. “That's cute, me too. In all honesty, your choice is what matters since you're the one that'd be carrying the babies. And if you don't want kids too, that’s totally fine by me.”As I opened my mouth to respond, a ray of white light suddenly overshadowed us, and I woke up with a start in a hospital bed.Looking around, I saw Eduardo and Henry sitting on the couch beside my bed, which made me frown in confusion and disbelief.Was I still dreaming?Just then, Eduardo noticed me and his face relaxed in relief, as he stood up and walked over to me.“You're finally awake. How are you feeling
Eduardo's POV “Thanks, Jocelyn,” Brian said as Jocelyn put a jug of tea in front of him. “You are welcome,” My wife replied. “Would you like anything with the tea? Some crackers or dates perhaps.”“No, it's fine. Thanks again.” He replied, before pouring himself a cup of tea.After spending two splendid weeks in Chile, Jocelyn and I were finally back to America.About a week ago, Brian also finalized his relocation to America.Today was saturday, which meant the three of us were free from work, so we had time to just lounge and talk about everything.Currently, we were sitting on the balcony and having tea and snacks.As Ivy was on duty at work today, she couldn't join us. But according to Jocelyn who she texted some hours ago, she would join us if she managed to get off work early.“So, how's America treating you, friend?” I asked Brian as he placed his cup on the table.“Surprisingly nice,” He replied. “I've managed to finalized a lot of deals in a week. Very profitable deals at t
Jocelyn's POV “As my lady pleases,” Eduardo said, before placing me on the floor. Arousal pooled within me, mixing up with my blood and flowing through my veins as Eduardo knelt in front of me, his arms hooked around my waist and his lips pressed to my navel. Instinctively wrapping my hands around his head, I threw my head back in pleasure even though Eduardo was yet to touch me. The pure, undiluted sensation of his skin on mine was enough to send me tipping over the edge. Repressing the urge to have a premature orgasm, I fluttered my eyes open and looked into his, melting at how sexy his lust-addled grey eyes looked. Pressing another kiss to my navel, Eduardo ran his hands from my ass cheeks to my back down and rested on my ass before he stood up, lifted me bridal style and pressed a kiss to my forehead. Thereafter, he placed me on the bed, intense arousal glinting across his grey eyes as he withdrew from the kiss to plant a kiss on my boobs. Looking into my eyes, he moved do
Eduardo’s POV “Are you really still not going to tell me where we are headed?” Jocelyn whined, as we headed into the hangar, where we were to board my private jet to our honeymoon location.Ivy and the kids had come to see us off minutes earlier and were probably on their way home now.“You really don't want this to be a surprise,” I huffed. “Guess where we are going.”“France?” She said, tone set between a question and an utterance.“You suck at playing the guess game,” I teased her, and she hit my bicep. “Okay, I'm sorry.”“Tell me already, Ed.” Jocelyn whined again, and I sighed.“We are going to Chile.” I replied, to which she gasped, hands clasped over her mouth.“You are joking.” She whispered, and my heart cut as I couldn't make out her expression at that moment.Fuck, what if I had chosen the wrong place?I had opted for Chile because some time ago, Jocelyn told me that she'd like to go on a vacation there one day, and since we had gone to all her dream countries, I had picke
Jocelyn’s POV “Bye, Jocelyn. Bye, Eduardo,” Ivy waved as my husband and I entered the car. “We will see you soon.”“Alright, thanks. Don't forget to call us right away if the kids are too much to handle.” I said, to which she scoffed.“Come on, Josie. I can look after my babies very well, so don't think about anything and just focus on having fun.” She said, winking, which made me blush.“Bye, Ivy.” Eduardo said, cinching his seatbelt. “We will be sure to take your word and have a lot of fun.”Thereafter, he drove off and I watched Ivy wave after our moving car, through the sideview mirror.“My beautiful wife,” Eduardo said, taking his eyes off the road to look at me and take my hand in his free one. “I still can't believe that you are mine even though we exchanged rings a couple of hours ago.”“Are you drunk?” I asked.“Do I look drink?”“No,” I replied. “You are just cheesier than usual.” I teased him, and he chuckled before pressing a kiss to the back of my hand.“But honestly spe
Jocelyn’s POV “You look pretty, mummy,” Henry said, as he and his sister observed me from where they were sitting as the makeup artist worked on my face.“Is that so, baby?” I asked, to which he nodded.“Thank you.” I said, darting him a smile which he returned.“Mummy, can I also get makeup like you?” Olivia asked, as the makeup artist put finishing touches to my lips.“You can only get lipgloss, baby,” I replied. “You don't need make-up because you are so pretty already.”“You are pretty too, mummy, but why are you using makeup then?” She frowned, which made me smile.“Because today is mine and your dad's wedding.”Today, I would become Eduardo's wife again and he, my husband.For some understandable reasons, a whirlwind of emotions and thoughts were currently swirling in my mind, however, I decided to focus on the positive part of them, just like Ivy had advised.I had woken up that day feeling very excited to walk down the aisle and get hitched but as soon as the stylist walked i
Eduardo’s POV Exhaling sharply, I regarded my reflection in the mirror, a small smile curving my lips as the thought of what today was struck me for the umpteenth time.I was finally getting married to the love of my life, Jocelyn, today, and I couldn't be happier.Damn, I couldn't wait to see her and profess my love for her in front of our loved ones, under the bright sky of Italy.As the pleasant thoughts swirled in my mind, a knock came on the door.“Yes, come in.” I said, averting my focus from the mirror to the entrance.The door creaked open and Ivy walked in with Henry and Olivia. A grin latched onto my lips as I crouched and opened my arms wide for a hug with them.“My babies,” I said, as they ran into my arms, hearty, childlike giggles emanating from them.“Hi, daddy.” They said in unison, as we disengaged from the hug.“How are you, my prince and princess?” I asked, to which they nodded, their smiles not disappearing for a while.“Daddy, you look hamsome today,” Olivia sai
Jocelyn’s POV “Here they come,” I said, as Amelia and Rafael walked up to us.Currently, we were all seated on the hotel balcony, with Henry and Olivia having an animated yet muffled conversation about Pokémon.As usual, Ivy and Brian were sitting together and there was a slightly pink tint on Ivy's cheeks, to show how flustered she was in Brian's presence.It was excruciatingly obvious as the days flew by that Ivy liked Brian, and from what I had observed, it seemed he also liked her but did a great job of hiding it.The reason why they both couldn't be adults and admit to having feelings for each other, instead of being awkward around each other, was simply unknown to me.“Hi, our beautiful bride-to-be,” Amelia beamed, hugging me from behind as I was seated. “You look radiant.”“Thanks, Amelia,” I said. “How was the journey?”“Very peaceful. I slept really good,” She replied before averting her focus from me to greet the others and handing the kids a plastic bag, which I knew would
Jocelyn’s POV My lips quirked up with a smile as Eduardo walked into the bathroom, where I had been waiting for him for the past ten minutes.Although it was a short duration, it felt like an excruciating hour as I was so horny and wet.Wrapping his arms around my waist, he said. “You are such a tease. You know that, right?”“Yes, I do. I love teasing you more than anything in this world. Do you wanna know why?” I asked, tracing my fingers across his stubble.One hand cupping my ass with the other on my zipper, he asked. “Why, my love?”“Because teasing you always ends up with your cock in me,” I replied, heated arousal coursing through me, as his stubbles grazed my palms.“I love how filthy your mouth is and right now, I badly want to kiss it,” Eduardo uttered, his gaze dropping to my lips and lingering there as he fondled my ass.“So do it,” I squeaked out, our noses dangerously close.I could even catch a whiff of the red wine he drank earlier at the rehearsal dinner.Hands hookin
Eduardo’s POV“My ever gorgeous queen. You look scrumptious,” I said, as Jocelyn trekked downstairs to the hotel lobby, a pretty smile plastered to her beautiful lips with her cheeks a fuschia pink colour.Earlier, she had made me leave our hotel room because she wanted me to be blown away by her look, which was exactly what I was right now as I stared at her.As I watched her walk, the urge to meet her halfway, carry her bridal style into our room then proceed to peel off her clothes before fucking her into at least three orgasms, gripped me, but I shook it off.Tonight was our rehearsal dinner and I wanted it to go well for Jocelyn, who even though we had an event planner, was always nervous about how our wedding day would go.“Thank you, babe,” She winked, tucking her hand into my outstretched, curved hand, her pale cheeks graced with a fuschia pink colour, which added more flair and pulchritude to her beautiful face.“You are welcome, my love,” I replied, taking her other hand and
