***Jacob’s Pov***

“JACOB! JACOB! ”

Jacob and the rest of the people in the office who heard Grace's screams braced themselves for the worst! My secretary was usually demure and prim, and being loud was not her style. "What's the matter?” I inquired after the woman resumed normal breathing.

"Your wife is on the rooftop!" Grace exclaimed, pausing for a few seconds after noticing that all eyes were on her.

“And?” Jacob wanted to hear everything in an instant, but Grace paused and looked around.

Grace cleared her throat and said, “Lucy said she will jump from the building if you will not see her.”

Numerous gasping and murmurs could be heard inside the mayor’s office, and Jacob was embarrassed when his Luna caused a scene. Dale already warned me about the possibility of the Luna’s jealousy but I couldn’t stop seeing Bethany. Dale’s warning proved to be accurate, and yesterday, when the argument went bad, I decided to break up with her. She didn’t like it, and caused a scene, but I didn’t e

    ***Lily’s Pov***As soon as I read Lucy’s messages, I hurried up to reach her destination on time. My twin has always been a smart woman. She knew her worth but after marrying Jacob, she totally changed into a different person! I asked her several times if Jacob has been treating her right but she kept on lying until the moment she asked me to assign a man in tailing her husband. At that time, I knew it took a lot of her courage to swallow her pride, but I could feel how hurt she was. I wanted to end Jacob’s life immediately but she begged me not to, and then, she would tell me about killing herself and making him feel guilty.That was total nonsense and at first, I didn’t want to believe her. I was told that there was an ongoing commotion on the rooftop, so I immediately took the fastest way possible in going there. I just arrived when I saw Lucy and Jacob arguing and I was tensed whenever Lucy would take a step toward the edge. I closed my eyes and tried to penetrate her mind, to pe

    “Lily’s Pov***Just like Lucy, tears rolled down from my cheeks when I heard her inner screams from the top. I really felt bad for the woman who was so sure about herself but she ended up losing herself because of a man.“I’m sorry,” I whispered in the air because I really felt bad for what happened to her, and the last coherent thoughts I had on my head before I seeing her hit the ground was guilt and anger towards Jacob Summers. It was his fault why Lucy turned into someone who’s so weak. For the last time, I glared at Jacob Summers and vowed to avenge the wrongful death of my sister. Sooner or later, he would taste the wrath of Lily Travis!With Lucy’s death, my father was devastated. He wanted to kill Jacob immediately but I was able to persuade him to let me do it my way. After several attempts of persuading him, he agreed, and after three months after Lucy’s death, I was ready.Lily's heart nearly stopped beating as soon as she stepped out of the elevator. My high-heeled shoes t

    ***Lily’s POV***Jacob’s secretary was extra friendly and I suspected she was one of his women. Hopefully not, because I would hate to kill her. Then, as soon as I recalled how much I struggled to locate the woman named Bethany, I clenched my jaw. For the past three months, I deployed several of my men to locate the woman but she vanished without a trace. Or, was there someone strong enough who protected her all this time? With my men’s abilities to track a person, it would be impossible not to detect her scent, but it really happened! They couldn’t find her, and it was frustrating to wait for the time when I could torture her!“You look like his wife,” the secretary said while we walked side by side towards his office.“She is my sister,” I told her because it’s nonsense to hide the truth when Lucy and I really looked the same. After all, we’re twins! “Is my outfit too much?” I asked because the woman kept on glancing at my clothes. I wore a mini black dress with a plunging neckline,

    ***Lily’s POV***Since I believed that Jacob has only been hiding Bethany, I needed to get close to him. I needed to be always with him. In the first place, I believed that killing Jacob Summers and the woman named Bethany would stop the nightmare from coming to me at night.I was having my favorite coffee when I saw him, and I could only stare at his broad shoulder as he walked hurriedly. He tried to stop me from getting close to him but I was also stubborn just like Lucy. When I decided to avenge my sister’s death, I knew I could pull off something I didn’t usually do. Jacob was aloof and indifferent regardless of the current talks with the elder that I should replace his first wife. It was a tradition in our family, and he was also aware of it, but somehow, he didn’t want to honor it.Sooner or later, I would make him cry with blood, and my teeth chattered while thinking of various ways how to punish him very soon. Slowly, I followed him towards the breakfast nook where he would as

    ***Bethany’s POV***The sound of my heels echoed in the empty hallway as I walked toward the office where Dale recommended me to work. Honestly speaking, I would be forever grateful to Dale for helping me in almost everything. He allowed me to stay in one of his properties, and he also mentioned that Jacob wouldn’t be able to find me. He said I would be safe as long as I wouldn’t dare to travel outside Bradfordshire.As usual, I arrived at my workplace an hour earlier than my schedule. My boss accepted me to be part of the sales team even if I didn’t have much experience in doing sales. He knew that my experience was limited to doing household chores, and I didn’t finish my degree. Regardless of my shortcomings, he hired me for the job, as long as I’m willing to be trained.One morning, I was familiarizing some of the products and services that the company would offer when my boss arrived, and he seemed to be in a bad mood. “Good morning, Mr. Navarro,” I greeted the taciturn business

    ***Bethany’s Pov***When he explained it would be impossible for him to like me, I was stunned to speak. Therefore, I followed him to his office without saying anything. When he ordered me to sit at his desk, I furrowed my brows in confusion.“Open the computer and check my emails,” he commanded, so I immediately sat in his swivel chair as he had instructed. My eyes couldn’t believe the number of emails he had in his inbox. I looked at him for further instruction, and he said, “You have to read it before replying.”“Me?” I asked in disbelief.“Yes. You.”Although I did it before, I was nervous about opening his mailbox. Then, I took a deep breath before clicking it, and unconsciously, I adjusted my blouse. “This one asked for a special discount,” I told him.“Then, check from the system if she’s qualified to avail of our special discount, and if she’s qualified, tell her about it.”“Noted, sir.”After checking the system, I found out that the client needed at least fifty transactions

    ***Jacob’s Pov***The moment I realized why Lily showed up in Claybourne again, I decided to befriend the woman. When she casually mentioned killing Bethany, I feared that she has become someone unreasonable and blind to avenge the wrongful death of her twin. Before leaving the office, I tried calling her, and I was glad when she answered my call. “Hello Lily, are you available later?”“Tonight?”As I listened to her speaking on the other line, I was drawn to her sweet and honeyed voice. “I wonder if you can join me for dinner tonight,” I told her.“Hmmm I have an appointment tonight but I think I can meet you for coffee,” she suggested.“Alright. I will be in Mug Shot in thirty minutes,” I told her before disconnecting the call, and then I texted the address in case she was not familiar with the closest coffee shop from the mayor’s office. I knew it was rude to disconnect the call before she could say yes but I couldn’t give her the opportunity to refuse.When I arrived at the coffe

    ***Bethany’s Pov***Five years later… I worked so hard at Mr. Navarro’s logistic company and because of my hard work and the willingness to learn everything about the business, I got an increase in salary. After one year of working with them, I realized that the sales department could help me in achieving my goal. Their schedules were flexible. As long as I could meet the required sales quota, I could clock out anytime, so I talked with my boss about it.Initially, I was nervous to discuss it with him, but I was glad I did because he agreed. In fact, he offered another incentive for the sales team, whoever wanted to pursue a degree related to the job, he would offer a subsidy for our tuition on top of the sales commission. Of course, I couldn’t just enroll immediately without testing the waters.For three months, I worked under the best sales representative as his assistant, and he was so helpful in teaching me. During my second month, I hit the quota for the first time, and I was s

    ***Bethany’s Pov***I averted my gaze because I felt naked in front of his eyes, but Jacob caressed my face and compelled me to look at him. For a brief moment, our gazes were locked, and no one dared to look away. Standing outside his room was inconvenient, so I wish he would move sooner. When he snatched me and dragged me into his room, I gasped for air. I didn't care that there were no words to describe the intensity of our need, whether sexual or emotional. In my heart, I yearned for him."Would you mind telling me what you want, my dear wife?"Jacob inquired about my desires, but I was at a loss for words. I was baffled! I didn't know what I was looking for except for him to touch, embrace, or kiss me. Without thinking, I threw myself at Jacob. I was taken aback by his sudden attack with his mouth, and my eyes widened as I realized I liked the way he conquered me with his lips. My knees started to wobble, and I had no choice but to grab his hand for support.I grumbled inwardly,

He still smiled at me as if I had said something nice to him.“Leave,” I told him.“You can’t be so cruel to me this morning, sweetheart,” he complained, but I wasn’t in the mood to be nice to him.“”Can’t you see I am busy right now?” I snapped at him but he just grinned. What’s wrong with him?“Bethany, when did you become so vengeful?”“Vengeful? If you were in my shoes, would you still smile at me as soon you wake up?”“Don’t worry, darling. I will make it up later,” he whispered but I just snorted at him.“Whatever,” I told him but when he suddenly embraced me, I lost.“Come on, don’t be such a baby, and smile! Jillian is looking this way, come on, smile darling!” “I was horny and you just kept on sleeping last night!” I complained and although it

    ***Bethany’s POV***After my conversation with Jacob, I tried calling Dale’s number, hoping he would take my call this time. Previously, I tried calling him but his number was always out of the coverage area. I just wanted to check if he has seen the face of the Uncle who took Jillian for a trip. Although, I trusted my father’s words about Jillian being safe, I still wanted to check with Dale. If only he wasn’t so busy lately.“Hey! I'm getting married in three days," I jested as soon as he answered the call, but Dale took it seriously.“Wow, congratulations, Bethany. Jacob is a good man, and you're fortunate to have him." He stated."But I'm not sure about that. He appears to be a good catch, but he stated that marriage was ridiculous, can you imagine?""He loves you, and I know you feel the same," Dale said, but even if he wasn't there, I disagreed with a shake of my head.Before opening my mouth to speak, I swallowed the lumps in my throat.

    ***Bethany’s Pov***I resigned to my fate as Jacob’s wife, but something happened. There was a commotion at the back, and when I looked around, I saw Jacob along with his men. His presence at my wedding alerted my father’s men, and the environment has turned into a danger zone. “Jacob!” I exclaimed as he approached me on a calm manner."I told you you are all mine. Bethany, you are mine. So get up and let's go home," he said, but no matter how slow his voice was, my father heard it and came over to us with a scowl."How dare you come here!" Father yelled at Jacob, and I was nervous as both men studied each other, with no sign of Jacob being afraid."Stop it, both of you!" I ignored the bystanders and yelled at both men. "Let's just walk away, Jacob." I've decided to follow Jacob wherever he would take me, than to get married to someone like Jacob. It would be boring!"Bethany, you can't do this to your father!" When we walked away, Roger Middleton shouted.I felt bad for my father bu

    ***Bethany’s Pov***It was late, and I knew my father was not at home. I decided to go for a swim in the pool because swimming usually helps me clear my mind; however, when I arrived, Alexander was already there!"Hi Bethany, would you like to join me?" He asked as soon as he saw me approaching, and I made a funny face.As if I could use the same pool water in which his body dared to float! His presence and carefree attitude disgusted me. "Never mind," I said as I prepared to leave.When Alexander called out my name, I turned around to see him approaching me. After seeing his hairy chest, I had to close my eyes for a moment. He didn't appear normal to me! He had so much hair all over his body that he looked like a monkey!"Do you like men with long hair?" I rolled my eyes to my head as he inquired. I was nearing the end of my patience, and Alexander put it to the test like a pro."Why do you have so much hair?" I knew I was being impolite, but I was enraged by his outrageous display o

A few hours later, however, I was awakened by someone, and when I opened my eyes, I saw my father standing near my bed. I glared at him again before closing my eyes, but he did not leave and remained standing!"Just leave me alone," I said as I wrapped the coverlet around my entire body."We have to deal with your situation, Bethany." He made an announcement.“Deal with it? How are you going to deal with it, Father? I am a divorced woman, and it was your fault for forcing him into the marriage!” I accused him of orchestrating everything along with my Aunt. It couldn’t be his idea alone.“You are engaged to someone else, Bethany. It’s not just Jacob, and thankfully, I made several deal when you were just a kid! It comes handy in your current situation,” he stated.“No, I am not going to marry another man. Once was enough, Father. My kids would be fine without a father figu

    ***Bethany’s POV***Tangled hedges and bushes surrounded an emerald field of grass. A single ornamental piece, simple but elegant in design, stood near the back. The smaller flower bushes were well cared for, but still given plenty of room to grow; they came in all shapes and sizes.The hedges and bushes grow to 1.5m/5ft in height, which was unusual and possibly unique to this garden. Marble slabs were scattered about, directing visitors to the best spots. Plants, grass, and roots appeared content with their positions in the garden, with none attempting to reach further, at least not yet.The ornamental piece commanded all attention, but it also draws attention to everything around it. The smaller flower bushes have no trouble attracting attention, and the hedges and bushes were certainly a sight to behold, but there's no way to win when the garden was designed with the ornamental piece in mind.It has been awhile since I spent a few hours in the garden, reminiscing about things espec

    ***Bethany’s POV***I thought Jacob was joking but when the nightfall came, he used his strength to gain access to my room. He was comfortably seated on my couch, watching television as if he had all the time in the world.“I am going to take a shower now, would you like to join?” He asked.“Not a chance,” I replied."By the way, darling wife, could you please get me a towel?"As the guy reveled in taunting me with his nakedness, my nostrils flared. "Please get it on your own; I'm too tired to get up," I said, lying."Hmm, I'm thinking about taking a shower later and sleeping now," he said, attempting to lie beside me.I jumped out of bed and dashed to the cabinet to get a clean towel for him. “"Here," I said as I handed him the towel then he laughed as he made his way to the bathroom.“Come on, Bethany. Join me! What’s stopping you this time? We used to do this before, remember?”“I don’t take a bath frequently since I got pregnant, Jacob.”“Lies,” he chuckled.About ten minutes late

    ***Jacob’s Pov***For a moment, I remained silent and simply stared at the woman who refused to terminate his pregnancy. I knew she was a wonderful mother, but having another bastard wouldn’t be acceptable. She has to marry me or terminate her pregnancy!Suddenly, her aunt entered with a tray of refreshments. I accepted a glass but I had no idea it could lead to something disastrous. She added something into the drink and only God knew what happened after that. When I regained my senses, I was tied up into a chair, along with Bethany.“I now pronounced you as husband and wife,” the man said much to my disbelief. When I glanced at Bethany’s reaction, her brows were also furrowed. She was probably confused, too! After the ceremony, they untied me, and asked me to kiss Bethany. Someone photographed the event, and it happened so quickly.“Jacob, please take care of our princess,” the woman said with so much emotions on her face, but I was still puzzled.
