EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Challenge accepted
Jessie’s POVI reconsidered my options the moment Gavin walked out of the room. He may have tricked me but he was a better option than most. He may have wronged me but I would be ungrateful if I didn’t acknowledge everything he did for me and my mom. Maybe, that was his way of apologizing. I don’t know. But from now on, my heart was set on paying back everyone who wronged me— Beginning with my father. He is the reason why my life fell apart in the first place.Gavin was right about one thing— by the contract, I was legally bound to him for three years. So my time starts now and my goals were set out—Three years from now, I must be a name in Darion Town. Three years from now, I must have recovered my family’s lost reputation. I didn’t know how I was going to do that, but working in Yates Stock Exchange was an added advantage, and having Gavin on my side was a plus. I took a deep breath and walked out of the room, bracing myself for the false excitement of my wedding.I never ex
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Officially Jessie Gavin Pierre
Jessie’s POVFor some wives, the statement would have been swoon-worthy. To some others, it would’ve made them blush. But I was a different breed now. My life was about to take a different course. So I looked my husband in the eye, and rejected his offer, my gaze filled with determination as I walked away.“How can you be so sure?” Gavin called out as I reached the door. “You’re getting ahead of yourself, Gavin Pierre. You just got me a ring.”That was all I said. That was all I needed to say. Today, my todo list was the only thing I would pay attention to. And the first thing on that list was to buy a house. I didn’t need anyone to tell me what to do anymore.“Jessie Pierre has taken the driving wheel of her life.” I muttered to myself as if the words in itself was to reaffirm my plans.The day progressed quickly, one minute on another, and the sun began to set. I glanced at my reflection on the mirror. A different person stood staring at me. Where I looked shabby and unkempt
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE The things I’d do to you
Gavin’s POVJessie’s makeover was mind blowing. I didn’t recognize her at first glance. I never imagined she could look that way. Curves on the right places, the wedding dress seemed to have been made for her. It hugged her body like a second skin, leaving nothing to imagination, yet elegance and undeniably classy- a typical type for the Gavin Pierre.I froze to my spot, jaw dropped in amazement. The garden and everyone in it faded into thin air, and all that was left was Jessie, walking towards me with measured steps. Each one an embodiment of an elegance I never imagined she possessed.I felt a strange mixture of emotions. On one hand I was stunned.She changed her blonde hair to... auburn? It was the color of dry maple leaves, but it shone beautifully in the lights hanging midair to decorate the garden.On the other hand, I felt a distance between us. We were at our wedding announcing that we belonged to each other, yet she seemed estranged— like I barely knew the person I calle
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Fantasy: Our wedding Night
Gavin’s POVThe door slammed shut behind us. We were now officially husband and wife. We stood side by side, taking in the large empty space. A smile tugged on the corners of my lips as I glanced at my wife, she had the same smile on her face, but I doubt we were smiling for the same reasons. I had a smile of fulfillment-- I was fulfilled that after five long years, the woman I always wanted was mine. “My mom left,” she spoke first, taking me by surprise. “She took Sarah with her.”“What? why? I’ve to employ a new maid now.“My wife turned to face me, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “I didn’t send Sarah away without a plan.”“Oh yeah? What’s your plan?”“I’ll cook for you, Gavin Pierre. We’ll cook for each other, we’ll take turns.”“And what about cleaning?” “I’m sure we’ll figure it out,” she said, biting her lips.My smile slipped, my eyes lingering on her plushy pink lips. “Can I kiss you?” I blurted out, unable to withhold the pent up longing since the wedding. “Yes, pl
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE A deep shade of red
Jessie’s POVRays of the morning sun filtered through the curtains, spreading their warmth over my face. I tossed and turned, searching for a comfortable spot, my eyes still drowsy with sleep.Suddenly, I felt a hand brushing the scattered strands of hair away from my face. I blinked my eyes open and an involuntary smile slipped. “Good morning,” I murmured, hiding my face under the thick duvet.“What are you doing?” Gavin asked, “You were bold and wild just last night. Don’t be shy now.”I wasn’t particularly shy to be honest. I was embarrassed. Embarrassed that I resorted to using my body to distract Gavin. I once read that a woman’s true color lay in the things she thought she was incapable of. And here I was displaying mine— a deep shade of red tinted with guilt.Gavin drew closer now, his fingers tracing a line on my face before planting a kiss on my forehead. “Why aren’t you looking at me? Do you regret it? Did I hurt you?” His tone was so soft, so unlike Gavin that I couldn
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE A clearer dream
Jessie's POVThe conference hall held its breath for a moment. Eyes widened as I called the CEO of the largest stock company by name. Greg smiled. As if he chose this moment to show himself to me for this very effect. I swallowed hard, my gaze fixed on a face that I’d known for over seven years. When did the dirty faced lanky Greg become the hot shot CEO of Yates Company, no scratch that, when did he found Yates Company? “Welcome to Yates,” he finally spoke, the smirk on his face broadening. Greg came up stage, taking away the slides remote and memo papers I had prepared ahead of the meeting. Together, we were turned, facing the surprised hall of employees. “Everyone!” He began, “Let me introduce you to my very good friend, Jessie Ford. She will be working with us from now on.”The crowd paused, not knowing whether to applaud or just let the words sink in. Flora’s face was most likely to burst from shock if not for Mr. Dani Smith.“Jessie Ford has worked with us for three weeks
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE I wanted to protect her, I failed
Chapter 32Chapter 32Gavin’s POVSeated as the head of the board meeting for the Business Conference of all Real Estate Companies of Darion Town, I kept my gaze locked on the agenda of the day. Meanwhile, my mind was fixated on a far less formal matter. Jessie. Why is she lying to me? I asked myself for the umpteenth time. Each time, the answer came back with a question, what is she doing behind my back?"Congratulations on your marriage, Mr. Pierre." A voice pulled me back into the present. I raised my eyes and found the one person I could consider a friend. "Thank you," I replied indifferently, my gaze darker than intended. "Tell me everything you know about the Ford company's shares." Mr Franklyn narrowed his gaze, his expression pensive and analytical."The meeting is about to start," he whispered, "I will send everything I know as email.But for now, I need a favor.""I don't grant favors to anyone that is not family." I interjected sharply. "Please, Mr. Gavin, it's urgen
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE It’s not a lie, Jess. I love you
Gavin’s POV“You’ll do no such thing!” I interjected, my voice a measured growl that barely masked the anger simmering underneath me.“Watch and see,” Candace smirked. “We are only at the beginning of our business deal, Mr. Pierre, let’s meet up more often.”“I refuse your offer.” “I doubt that you can, Gavin.” Candace replied, her voice smooth and unwavering, almost taunting. “I care about your company too, don’t test me. It’s an advice.”She rose from the table, her red dress tight on her body like a second skin. “By the way,” she added, “I’m not the only one hoping for your marriage to fail.”Her words hung in the air like a grey cloud. They are people hoping for my marriage to fail? I thought inwardly. Following her subtle nod, I my head looked over my shoulders to find that guy… Greg or whatever tracing a line on Jessie’s face.I jolted up, too upset to watch anymore. As I stormed out of the diner, I could tell the look in Candace face. It was that triumphant smirk— one a pre
