Gertrude Pov...I know Jonathan is not over Jessica yet and I don't want to control him whom to meet but I have to do it if I wanted everything will back what was supposed to be. After staying at my parent's place for two days and one night we didn't go home straight. Instead, he brought me somewhere else that I don't know. It was a rooftop of one of their buildings and it's quite beautiful and interesting.The first thing I felt when we reach the top was freedom, calmness, and color. I couldn't stop smiling closing my eyes and feeling all the senses while being immersed in the beauty on top. The quietness was a top-notch for me. I always want to go to a scenic but quiet place. if I would be ask I would prefer living in the country than in the city but life is a challenging process. Not everything we wanted to be will be shoved into our doorstep just like we ask for it.I'm enjoying my day with him and don't know Jessica was starting to have a tough life. Well, she created that and br
Jessica Pov...When dad visited I know something is going on in the business but I couldn't help. The first person who is giving us help comes from Gertrude's family. Now that I cut ties with Gertrude and humiliated his father before I put some tight leashes on our boundaries. One more strike on their family will surely make us live on the street.I went back to work to see things and what is going on apparently I didn't find anything yet. I was supposed to leave when the guard called that someone is waiting for me outside. Who could come here? I smiled when I remembered Jonathan! He is the only person who can barge in here anytime.I had a beautiful smile planted on my face running outside to meet him and expecting a sexy smile and hug but it was the opposite I didn't expect a torch of fire face to meet me. His face tells everything that he is feeling right now! I smiled trying to show him I am not affected. "Hi, Jonathan! Lovely to see you again!" I exclaimed smiling at him. He gla
Gertrudes Pov...I don't want to sulk until the next day but I waited for him what is he going to do to coax me or not. I maintained quiet until we reach our room at bedtime. I know he wanted to do something but was afraid I might flip or he is still trying to study me. It doesn't matter to me. What's important he is into me!After bathing, I wear my sexy seductive nighties lying on the bed but he is still adamant to talk to me. I have a long patience and I can wait. He must be the one to pull this silence since it was his woman who tainted the night's mood.He slowly comes closer without talking. After a few minutes, he speaks."I'm sorry honey! Please, can I hug you? I can't sleep without talking and hugging you!" He asked while slowly putting his hands on my arms. I didn't respond or move. He drops small kisses on my shoulder and nape while keeping on saying sorry. I smiled not showing him."Honey!" He continued. "Goodnight hon!" He whispered biting a little on my shoulder and hug
Jessica Pov...When I started to decide to obey dad and work my ass with him. I didn't know another problem arises. What a twist of life's fate. When you fix something another is coming.I walk into Getrudes beauty shop to say sorry but I didn't expect it will go south. I went there before she will go home not to disturb her job. I didn't know Jonathan was going to fetch her and it fucked up! I'm breathlessly shocked to see him approaching mad and remorseful. His glares were like a laser slicing my body into shreds strips. A chill passes my spine nervous and speechless."What the fuck are you two talking about!" Jonathan roared but his eye was focused on me. "Babe you know Gertude is a liar and she is good with that. She is just accusing me of something in the past but I assure you it was just a mere coincidence." I reasoned out though I am shaking nervously. This is my first time seeing him angry and dark as the night. I saw him before but this is different."Shut the fuck up and te
Jonathan Pov...We were supposed to date tonight. I booked at one of my family's favorite fine dining though she is not already new to this. I want our marriage to work, maybe. For now, that's what I feel. Ever since I saw Jessica cheating on me and I learned I am Gertrude's first I can get her out of my system. I always look forward to a beautiful tomorrow and a more exciting day.Gertrude has reservations in her heart yet she shows adoration and thoughtfulness in our marriage. We never fight as we use to. We always cuddle before bedtime. We alternately prepare breakfast unknowingly. We just realized those after.I am happy to serve my wife and take care of her whilst a portion of my heart has still reservations because of what is already planted in my head. I thought she betrayed me! I thought she set me into my supposed abyss. I'm fucking furious right now that I trusted the wrong person and resented the person I cherish the most. All the what-ifs and my anger toward her is fucking
James Pov...Homer and I decided to surprise Jonathan on his birthday. We plan to celebrate in their house. Homer and Greta went there first and we will follow tomorrow evening as his birthday is this coming Saturday.When we are planning something he is not in the mood to celebrate and forgets it is his birthday."Homer what a pleasant evening!" I bemaed amswering his call."Yeah! The kids just got home but something isn't good. They went straight to their room without words and Jonathan isn't happy. I don't know what it is but it seems not good." Homer enunciated."What do you mean? Can you ask Gertrude? I'll try to reach Jonathan!" I replied.I dialed Jonathan's number but out of the coverage area. Is there a problem with them? I know it is still hard for him to accept it since he is blinded by his love and lust toward that woman. I hope he didn't do something that he will regret soon. Gertrude is a kind and sweet woman. They are perfect together if he will give it a chance and mak
Adam Pov...I'm glad the business transaction went well. I thought I might kill someone again pissed. I went to buy chocolates for Jessica and the bag she wanted. I laughed remembering Jessica. I don't have a place in her heart as I am just her fuck buddy yet I'm spending dollars for her wants! My trip back to LA is tiring and all I wanted was to rest yet I got a stressful call. I can't go back there. That casino is making me a headache all the time. Profits are too low yet liars are everywhere! I hissed almost throwing my phone pissed when it rang again."What? Are you supposed to pick me up?" I ranted answering Leo's call."Fuck! I can't buddy. I have a meeting away from you and Jessica seems to need help. She keeps on calling! The car is parked at the parking and keys you know where Input it." He informed me before cutting the call. I forgot today was his meeting with Ferrer!I don't want to disturb him and called Jessica instead. I cursed when I heard where she is right now. Of a
Gertrude Pov...We are surprised to see our parents at home. If I am not mistaken they are brewing something. Since I am a die-hard fan of Jonathan before I know his birthday is this coming Sunday.I planned to surprise him with a simple date yet memorable and fun. I planned to go to the theme park and ride all the crazy rides before we will eat dinner at Lucios Dining. It's one of the famous fine dinings here in LA.I didn't tell him what is my planned today. I prepared breakfast for everyone. No one greeted him pretending they are unaware of what day today is, and so do I.After our breakfast, I told my parents that we are spending the whole day outside. Jonathan look at me confused. I winked at him and blew a flying kiss. He chuckled using his feet to touch my legs under the table. I suppressed my laughter and giggle. I don't want to send shivers to my parents."Dad, can we leave all of you today? I just want to date my handsome husband today." I asked them. I don't want to look li
Jasmine Pov...My debut party was a perfect definition of a blast! I've been having a grand party since I was born, well except when I was kidnapped my poster parent did make it happen to be a princess though. This birthday was unforgettable as I am with my family and extended family abroad.My parents were busy working to provide whatever we need and this trip is definitely what everyone needs. I saw them leave my party like a teenager, I'm happy to see them laugh and play for a while.My party ended around 1 in the morning. I invited Some of my friends to come here. Auntie Nathalie said I can invite anyone that I wanted to be part of my cotillion.Matt is one of my closest friends that I met entering college. He's cool, smart, and handsome. He doesn't want boundaries but is respectful to elders and women. Some of our friends branded us as a couple but he just shrug it off."Matt thanks for coming!" I grind seeing him. He said he'll not come as he was busy and might his parents would
Jonathan Pov...The party was a blast and memorable for everyone. Couldn't thank my sister and her husband for making this event blissful.To see my daughter laugh, dance and smile was an unexplainable feeling a parent could have. It's already midnight and no one wants to stop. They still want to prolong the happiness and bonding.I don't know how my sister sent invitations that people keep on coming. The stage where her presents lay was already full yet the gift keeps on pilling.I didn't know my daughter planned to donate her present to the foundation. Her grandparents were proud of her and couldn't believe she is already trustworthy and a good leader. The way she thinks amazed her grandparents."You are always in deep thought hon! Is there something bothering you lately!" My wife asks wrapping her arms behind me."No love! I'm proud of our daughter! She is exceptional and smart." I beamed proud of her."Yes, she is honey! Never expect she will think that way! I thought she is still
Jonathan Pov...Time flies too fast and my firstborn is now a woman. Seeing her grow up and have her own plans makes me cry. Still remembering when she was just a little munchkin plaid on my broad arms. She's small and very delicate to carry, now she's a gorgeous amazing woman.She will still my little girl who runs towards me and needed me."Daddy!" A soft fragile voice screech behind me. I wipe my tears before facing her."Hi, my princess!" I beamed happily."Are you crying?" She ask worried."No! Im, not princess. I'm just happy to see you step up for another milestone. You are now grown up and soon you will never need me." I plummeted."Daddy you will always be my first man! What your thinking will never happen!" She specified assuring me. She's not little anymore. My heart ached but happy where she become."I love you, my princess! Always remember daddy is here for you! I might scold you or ground you but my love for is unconditional. You will always be my little girl." I enuncia
Nathalie Pov...After6 years...I just remembered getting married surprisingly and having twins after yet twelve years had passed. Jonathan and I leave away each other with our own chosen families. We are both busy working and managing our household. I found a good man who treasures a woman and I can't ask for anything else.We usually have a family reunion every birthday and other family occasions. Company events were minimal and w can't bring our families there. I told Jonathan to surprise Jasmine on her debut so we ask them to come here to Italy. Gertrude was once here, but since I married Gideon, many things changed. I also heard she has a boyfriend and we practically invited him.Jonathan is whining he is not ready to see her daughter being involved in a man but she is already a woman, not a child. Sooner Giovani will introduce his and the twins, they're naughty. I miss their youngest child. She's adorable like a royal princess but her temperament is different. I bet she got my
Jonathan Pov...After 5 years...Five years have passed and our lives changed! Nathalie and I have a beautiful family now. We are happy that we both found a beautiful family to share our endeavors in life. Our parents were once friends and are now friends and families.Nathalie has two twins in five years and Gideon was so happy. He rather chooses to spend the day with his family than at his office but he needs to work. Nathalie joined us in expanding and managing the Evans and Cushe Empire for our children. Our parents were the happiest now that we are settled and taking care of their business they hardly built with their sweat and great labor.Homer often visited us and was thankful that I was a good husband and father to my children after what he did but it's the opposite I am thankful that he forced me to marry his daughter. Actually, he saves me from hell.After what happened to Gertrude giving birth to the twins. I make sure she will not get pregnant again. I'm scared of losing h
Homer Pov...Jonathan is nervous pacing back and forth in front of the emergency room. Gertrude was sent there an hour ago as his water bag broke.Every tick of the clock is terrifying waiting for her birth delivery and Jonathan wasn't him anymore. His face is already contoured worried. The way he bites his lips and clenched his fist shows how scared he is!Since he arrived here, he never speaks. I'm also worried about my daughter. Giving birth to twins is risky and the babies were big. Every time my wife gives birth before I felt my heart slowly ripped from my chest worried and scared."Jonathan!" I tried to distract him. He suddenly kneels down scaring us. Thought he fainted or something bad happens to him. While we are helping Jonathan the emergency door opened. The doctor came out. "Evans family!" The doctor called. We all crawled near the doctor."The babies and your wife were delivered safely." The doctor beamed. We relaxed hearing that but. "Unfortunately we have a little pr
Jonathan Pov...When I saw my wife sitting on one of the tables in the garden of the resort, I doubted Gideon and Nathalie's gestures! As expected, they planned this. Been three months since their wedding and we are all busy with our lives. I'm busy working end to end while tending to my wife's and kids' needs. I sneak behind her and planted a kiss on her nape surprising her."Hey! Love where are they?" She beamed startled but smiled when she saw it was me."Hi, my lovely wife!" I chimed pecking at her lips. "Don't ask my love, I doubt this is a family lunch or dinner." I added pulling her inside. And just what I expected, they book 1 room just for us! He is really serious about what he said! Whatever Gideon! I mumbled in disbelief smiling. "My brother is just worried about you! I'm not much of help right now and you have a lot of work to do." My wife enunciated apologetically. She's right though, this is what you really feel when you are a family man and love your family. Famil
Gideon Pov...We were all busy after the wedding and I haven't had the chance to thank Jonathan. He looks unapproachable but it's the opposite. He once rejected my proposal earning some negative traits on me but the actual him isn't what we always see. After the incident, Gertrude was really forbidden to work normally and on her own. She can visit the office twice a week as my brother inlaw's order. He becomes more possessive and overprotective of her. Well, she's carrying two not one! If you meet him before, you will not believe The love he showed for his family. Before I will go back to Italy for a job, Nathalie and I talked to surprise her brother. Time to give him something to cheer up. He is a man full of commitment to himself without question or complaint.Work is spicing up rapidly and he is busy more than he thought. He needs my sister's help but she can't for now. He'd rather crumble alone working just to make his family safe at all costs."Love he really needs this! He is
Nathalie Pov...When I heard the news about my brother having twins I was astounded but in love.I thought Gertrude is planning something since they were apart for five years. My heart is thumping fast worried for my brother but her reasons were genuine.That will be the most beautiful gift he will ever have on his birthday. Unfortunately, accidents happen anytime and anywhere. It is unpredictable and inevitable.I understand how moody and emotional she was as well. I'm not emotional but lazy and always hungry. It's part of the pregnancy. This is her third time and not pregnancy is the same even with cravings. Some are disgusting and nasty.The night ends smoothly and we ended up starting our honeymoon in my brother's house. It was like a reunion and it's amazing and beautiful. There is no perfect family without a day of misunderstanding. The first day waking up on my bed with my now husband and the best part was in my brother's house whom we thought doesn't agree with us. Our huge a
