Dear Husband, I Came Back To Deal With You 020
Getting into Derek’s sleek black Veyron, Logan took the position of the chauffeur and drove off. He didn't want to miss out on any of the drama, so the moment the couple walked out, he rushed and got into the car. Leaving not just them but the actual chauffeur speechless.“He has never been normal, it's in his blood,” Derek mumbled to a stunned Gemma, who only shook her head at the duo’s drama.Once the car pulled up in front of the company, Logan dramatically got out and pulled the door open for Derek, he even went as far as bowing.“Get lost,” Derek mouthed him.He smiled.“Kick their asses!” He told Gemma and hurried into the car to park it so he could join them Walking into the company’s entrance, the couple were met with a lot of stares from the employees. Having known these people for long, Gemma could figure out what they all had in their heads.“Getting married to a billionaire and dressing fancy won't change your position as the errand girl in this company.”“I'll find my wa

“Me, I'll model the company’s new product,” Gemma declared.Her words were met with silence from everyone. Elena was the first person to break the silence.“You! Model the jewelry?” Elena laughed Gemma looked at her unfazed, making her realize she was being serious.“I'm a supermodel and you're just an unknown daughter of the family. What makes you think you can be the company’s model. You don't even know a thing about modeling…”“It's not like I need a bachelor's degree to become a model…” Gemma clapped back.“Did you even finish high school, Elena?” She asked.The entire executives looked at Elena in shock. This was news to them.“Gemma!” Elena clenched her fist.“See, you became a supermodel without a basic degree. While me, on the other hand, I have a master's degree, body and perfect height.” Gemma didn't come to play.“Enough of the drama, Gemma. Your sister will be the company’s model and that won't change any time soon,” Sylvia declared, Elena snickered and James cleared his

During the entire ride, Gemma’s mind was occupied with various ways she could curb any vile plans Elena and the others had. The launch of the new product, being successful, wasn't her problem, as she knew it would be successful and the product would receive a lot of public attention. She knew this as she could remember when it was launched in the past. Elena had modeled it and her mother received credit for the design. While she, the actual brain behind the work, got nothing.This time, she would get the credit and recognition she deserves, first by becoming the model for her design.“And, we’re here,” Logan announced, bringing the car to a halt inside the Ferguson’s property.The moment Gemma got down from the car, old Mr. Ferguson approached her. “Welcome back home, dear,” he pulled her into his arms.Gemma’s eyes almost got misty at this gesture, it was obvious the old man had a really soft spot for her.Looking at his grandfather hugging Gemma, Derek only scoffed and walked ahead

“Hey,” Derek called out to Gemma who was already in her pajamas and ready to go to bed. They had gotten pajamas and some casual clothes when they went shopping the previous day.“I'd like to get some rest,” Gemma mumbled, climbing onto the bed.“What about dinner?” Derek asked Ever since Gemma came up here since they got home in the evening, she hadn't come down. Even when Nora tried to make her leave the room she had lied that she was having a headache and would like to sleep.“I'm not hungry,” Gemma muttered.At her words, Derek instantly climbed onto the bed.“What are you doing?” Gemma was startled by his sudden action.“Hold on,” he said, placing his palm on her forehead.“Your temperature is normal. Are you feeling sick in any way?” he asked “I'm not sick. I'm just not hungry,” Gemma hit his hand off her head.“Are you sure?” He insistently asked.A few seconds passed with Gemma not saying a word and then she finally spoke.“Why do you act like you care about me so much?”“Act

To Derek, Gemma wasn't just a lady he randomly decided to spend his entire life with.The first time he had seen her was when he went gold hunting. As someone with a lot of investments. His company didn't just deal on one product but varieties of products. That day, he had gone to the gold mine to oversee the gold for the jewelry production. Logan was nursing a broken heart back then and couldn't concentrate on any work, so Derek took on the task since he couldn't trust anyone aside from Logan.The path to the mine wasn't exactly that easy to pass. Due to the high cases of robberies in these mines, they are often hidden away from the entire city and the roads to them are made hard to access.Getting out of his car that day,he saw another car parked at a corner. It was an old truck and it made him wonder who it belonged to. Well, he didn't wonder for long. He sighted a dark haired young lady, walking down the muddy and slippery path. She walked even better than him. It was as if it was

Gemma was so engrossed in admiring the lunch bag on her lap that she didn't notice the pair of eyes on her. Looking down at the lunch, she recounted how she had to wake up early each day to make not just her own food, but that of everyone at home. She'd cook and set the table even though they had maids at home and worst, Sylvia always made her pack Elena’s lunch too. She shook her head to get rid of unpleasant memories. Then, looked out the window sighing. Looking at the buildings by the roadside, Gemma felt like something was wrong. Her eyes had been on the road as they drove back to the Ferguson’s mansion yesterday and she never noticed any of these buildings. “Is this like a short cut or something?” She asked aloud with eyes still outside the window. Seconds passed but the driver didn't say a word, making her look away from the window. “This route is unfamiliar,” she uttered, meeting the driver’s eyes in the mirror. Upon seeing his eyes on her, she gasped. “What th

Early that morning, Derek was the first person to wake. Once he saw that Gemma was still asleep, he stared at her resting face for a while, then slipped out of the bed. Not wanting to wake her up, he tiptoed to the closet and picked out his clothes then left the room.He bathed and got ready for work in the guest room and once he was done, he came back to check on his sleeping wife only to find her still sound asleep.“I'm heading for the office, Nora,” he told his sister the moment he got out of the room.“And Gemma?” the latter had asked.“She is still asleep.” “No one should disturb her, let her sleep in if she likes. She is stressed out,” he instructed.Nora gave out a mischievous smile and winked at him.“If only she knows,” Derek thought.“Pascal will drive her to work if she decides to go to work today. I have an urgent meeting at the office, ” with that, he left the house.The truth was that he had just lied about having an important meeting. He just wanted to go away for a w

“You do know Gemma is carrying my child, right?” he laughed.“What!” Derek was shocked.“He is a filthy liar,” Gemma yelled from the side.She has never let Daniel touch her and was saving her first sexual experience for their wedding night. Even before she got her second chance, Daniel had only touched her on their wedding night.“You darned liar!” She yelled!“What? You didn't tell him?” Daniel was insistent.“Do not listen to him, I'm not pregnant,” Gemma yelled.“Bloody liar,” Derek cursed, choosing to listen to his wife “If she isn't pregnant, then what's this?” He flung a paper at Derek.Derek couldn't stop himself from looking. He picked up the paper and looked down on it. It was indeed a pregnancy test result with Gemma’s name on it.He looked up at Gemma. Seeing the look of disappointment on his face, Gemma pulled herself off Logan’s grip and rushed over to him.“Whatever that paper holds is fake,” she said, then took the paper from him.She scoffed on seeing the content of

“Andrea said she met Rachel at Dalking street. Which means she is somewhere around there. That bitch isn’t wise enough to plan a full proof operation…” Victor was saying but was cut off by Logan.“I know all this, Victor. Where is Rachel right now?” he asked.“I don’t have her exact location but she should be in any hotel around Dalking street or that area. Rachel is in debt right now. That’s probably why she is in the slums…Dalking street is in the slums. She should be in any cheap hotel or motel around there…” Victor responded.“Well then, let's start with the cheapest one,” Logan suggested.Getting into Logan's car, the duo drove till they came to a stop at a public parking lot. The both knew it was probably not safe to take an exotic looking car into the slum. They would end up bringing unwarranted attention to themselves.Once they got out of the car, they found their way into the alleyway that led to slums. Both never said a word to each other again and simply focused on the tas

“Where did you pick up the pill, Andrea?” Victor asked, still holding onto Andrea’s phone.“I….I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Andrea stuttered.“Don’t play that game with me, Andrea. I'm one hundred percent sure that you know exactly what I'm talking about. Where did you get the damned pill!” Victor was beginning to get pissed off.“Confronting her would bring harm to Gemma,” Andrea mumbled, looking down at her feet.“You don’t get to decide that,” Logan spoke this time.“What do you mean by that? Gemma is my best friend and I want the best for her. I’m protecting her from harm and that’s something you two wouldn’t understand. You just want to go out there and confront whoever is after Gemma’s life without thinking of the aftermath, without thinking about the effect it would have on Gemma. Seriously?” Andrea was fed up and pissed off at this point.“Don’t act like you care about her more than we do!” Victor was quick to challenge her.“I'm not acting, Victor. You and I know

Back at Logan’s house, he and Victor were seated in the living room, waiting for Andrea to show up. It had been hours since they arrived, yet there was no sign of her. Just when Victor stood up to complain for the hundredth time, the door was pushed open and Andrea walked in, looking really exhausted. She halted at the sight of the duo and seemed surprised at Victor’s presence in the house. She had never seen Victor leave the house before, he was alwys indoors back at the Ferguson’s mansion.‘Hi,” she waved at Victor and offered Logan a smile, the walked past them. But then, Victor called her back.“I’m actually here to see you, Andrea,” Victor said aloud, much to Andrea’s astonishment.She turned around “Me?” she asked Victorf nodded.“You’re the only Andrea here, aren’t you?” he sarcastically remarked.“Come sit, Andrea,” Logan called out to her, and slowly patted Victor’s back to make him chill. Waiting for hours just to speak with Andrea had made him cranky and agitated.Andrea

As Gemma and Derek approached the obstetrics ward exit, they suddenly ran into a duo unexpectedly. It was Daniel and James. One would wonder what they were doing in the obstetrics ward and together at that. It was no news that the two never got along, so seeing them together like this was truly a surprise.Even though Gemma was more than curious to know why they were together, she didn’t attempt to say a word to them. Instead, she kept her eyes straight ahead and walked past them.“Ignoring me now?” Daniel spoke, grabbing her hand and pulling her backward.“Get your hands off her,” Derek fumed, grabbing Daniel’s hand and furiously pulling it off Gemma’s arm.“Take it easy, man,” James laughed, coming to stand in between Gemma and James.“I’m surprised to see you here,” James flashed Gemma a smile.“Considering how terrible you claim your childhood was and how you claim to have been abused. I never thought you’d one day decide to have a child of your own. The little one might get the t

“I don’t think she is home yet,” Logan mumbled, looking around his house. The trio had arrived at Logan’s house a while back and there didn’t seem to be any sign of Andrea. Logan had checked her room but she wasn’t there, which instantly made them conclude she wasn’t back yet. “We’ve heard you Mr. Lover boy,” Victor joked when Derek tried going over everything once again. Derek simply rolled his eyes, not bothering to reply to Victor's words, knowing it will only result in him being teased even more. “Isn't that your phone ringing, man?” Victor tapped Derek's back. “I'm not in the mood to take any calls now. I just want to get this over with,” he mumbled, not bothering to touch his phone. “You have a pregnant wife who is considering an abortion. What if she did something to harm the baby or worse herself?” Victor raised a brow. “Don't jinx things,” Logan smacked his head. But then hia words were enough to make Derek quickly pull out his phone. “How is Gemma?” He asked theoment

“That's…that’s her,” Derek stuttered.“No way,” Logan added.“Hello?” The voice sounded again, and then Victor hung up.“We all know who the culprit is,” he stated.“Is Andrea at home right now?” Derek asked.“She went out earlier, I doubt she is back,” Logan said still staring at the phone in disbelief.“Let's all go over to your house and wait for her to return,” Victor stated with urgency.“Gemma is still crying,” Derek mumbled.“You, go to her then. Victor and I will go do with that bitch,” Logan shrugged.“So, what's the plan?” Victor asked.For over twenty minutes, they all sat there on the floor, going over their plan over and over again and once they were satisfied, they swung into action.“I'll go too, I'll send Esther to be with Gemma. This is about her safety,” Derek sighed.Victor and Logan didn't bother saying a word to him. Knowing he was a hopeless romantic, he might suddenly change his mind and decide to go be with Gemma.Pushing the door open and heading down the stai

“I'll never marry a wife with a traumatic childhood,” Logan mumbled. Derek simply forced out a chuckle at their words. All he wanted to do at that moment was hold Gemma and tell her to wipe her tears. But he knew he couldn't afford to do that. If he does, in the future Gemma might exclude him from an important decision again and who knows, it might even be more severe than this. Turning to Logan, Derek hit his head slightly. “I came here to have some alone time but you two ruined it…” “You're welcome, Derek. I know that's your way of saying thank you to us for keeping g you company,” Victor spoke. Logan chanted in support of him, making Derek shake his head. “About the threat on Gemma's life?” Derek who couldn't stop worrying about Gemma raised the subject again. Logan glanced at Victor and then looked back at Derek, indirectly asking if it was okay to talk in Victor's presence. Victor scoffed. “I'm not leaving!” “Go ahead,” Derek mumbled, knowing how stubborn Victor was. T

“Will you be going back to guest room tonight?” Derek asked, walking away from Gemma. Looking at him, Gemma couldn't stop her tears from falling. His utterance made her realize how much this man loves her. Her insecurity had gotten the best of her. Being betrayed by the people close to her heart at the least expected time, had made her heart really guarded unknowingly and now it messed her up. It messed up her only true relationship. “Derek, I….I want to sleep here tonight, with you,” she mumbled. “That's settles it then, I'll be sleeping in the guestroom,” Derek said like he didn't hear what she just said. “I…I was insecure and afraid, I'm sorry, Derek,” Gemma cried, rising to her feet and walking over to where he stood, staring into nothingness. “Your apology means nothing to me, Gemma. You're only doing all these because I found out about your vile plan, if I never found out, you wold have gone ahead with it and still keep it hidden to yourself. Just keep your pretentious apolo

Earlier, Derek was summoned because of the products, right in the middle of his arguement with some of his board members and a few from the Braun's Company, he got a phone call, it was from Victor and Victor had informed him of Gemma's presence at her family company. At first, he had told Victor to just take her home when she was done, having known his workaholic wife, he knew she was probably missing doing her work. But then Victor mentioned how Esther had suddenly alerted him and suspected something was off. Coupled with the fact that he knew that Gemma hated the sight of Nathaniel, but then, she seemed in a haste to go meet him earlier, like she had some sort of business with him. Having known Victor for long, Derek knew how calculating and observant he was. If he said something seems off, that means something was definitely off. Instantly he excused himself and drove directly to find Gemma. Never did he expect that he was rushing to get his heart shattered and trampled upon. “Gem
