Nicole glanced in her mother-in-law's direction in disbelief. The most that anyone had donated to their charity organization was $50,000, and that was a foreigner worth billions.

It looked like the rumors of Nera being mistreated by the old man were wrong and were looked after while bathing in wealth.

The woman was filthy rich. Of the two she looked like she hit the jackpot while she herself was her mother in law's bag girl that was supposed to follow the old woman everywhere even to stupid fundraising dinners.

The mayor's wife stood up with a loud cheer, urging everyone to give applause to Mrs. Rashwell.

Nera bowed and took a seat, her eyes fixed on the daughter and mother-in-law, whose faces were about to burst with anger.

"Bullseye!" she whispered to herself.

Her juice arrived, and she thanked the waiter before turning away from the two fools.

"Back to the agenda, today we are holding elections for the Vice President and Treasure," Patricia announced, sending the audience into a

    Nera drove back to the mansion with a smirk of satisfaction on her face. Seeing the two women leave the fundraising dinner at the mention of her name as the winner was a moment she was going to treasure for the rest of her life.The two idiots were always spreading gossip and commenting on everything that had to do with her. The fools never moved on, even when she had lived an isolated life. They had been calling on her for so many years that she decided to finally respond. What was satisfying was that she responded when they least expected it.She walked into the house, hymning, and found Marcus having his dinner. She walked up to him and gave him a kiss."Someone seems to be in a happy mood," he joked."I need fifty thousand dollars," she requested.Marcus looked up at her a little bit confused, she was not the type to ask for money, and the last time he tried setting up her own account, she refused."And I need a piece of land for our charity organization," she added.Marcus pause

    Nera woke up to a beautiful sunny morning; she had overslept, and Marcus allowed her to sleep because they slept late. Marcus spent the whole night teaching her the basics of running a charity and the dos and don'ts, even though he did not like the idea of her entangling herself with her former in-laws.He had woken up early and left for the office, leaving his wife to have as much rest as she needed.Nera stretched her legs and arms, ready for the new day and the new role that she had to fill. Thanks to Marcus, she had gotten an insight into what her job involved, and she loved it.She got out of bed, singing her new favorite hymn. She had a lot to do for the day. First, she was going to the bank to approve the money she had pledged, and then she was going with the driver to the west coast to check on the land.She did not want her pledges to be words from her mouth or hearsay, but she wanted to be a woman of action who did more of the actions than talking.She prepared herself and r

    Nera got into the car and instructed the driver to take her home immediately. He tried to speak, but she ordered him to keep quiet. Her mind was trying to figure out who followed her to Alabama and took the photos. She lived a very private life by then and was not trying to get on anyone's nerves, so it did not make sense that either Nicole or Mrs. Blair would have followed.But she was sure the two idiots were behind the allegations."Is Marcus home?" she asked."Yes, he arrived an hour ago," the driver replied.At home, Marcus was fuming at the images, not because someone was trying to implicate his wife and driver but because someone followed him and his wife to Alabama.His blood pressure was all over the roof, and he kept imagining what other photos they had of him or if they had photos of Frank and knew about his arrangement.He quickly called his private investigator to get on the job immediately and ordered him to make the photos disappear. When he thought he had handled ever

    "Marcus! Marcus! Marcus!" Nera kept shouting as he held onto his chest, trying to get air in his chest. She quickly called the driver, who went running into the office and helped Marcus to the car. They needed to take him to the hospital.Nera followed from behind, panicking; she couldn't understand what was going on. A second ago, he was all fine, but all of a sudden he began clutching to his chest and having difficulties breathing.They all got in the car, and the driver drove straight to the hospital. Nera kept crying the entire trip. She watched as her husband was stretched into the hospital, her hands over her mouth in disbelief.The driver took her to the waiting area, where they waited impatiently. Nera could not sit down; the chair felt like it had thorns on it. She kept pacing the little space, further annoying the driver.He kept glaring at her knowing she had said something stupid to upset his boss, resulting in his boss's admission.He got up, grabbed her hand, and took he

    The morning came with Marcus busy on his phone with his private investigator. He had managed to get most of the websites to take down the stupid allegations about his wife and driver. Only unknown sites with low reach were running the useless story. What was left was to bring the culprits to justice. He knew who they were, but he needed evidence to nail them.Nera, who was fast asleep on the other side of the bed, snoring. He did not want to disturb her, knowing how tired and stressed she was the previous day.He was feeling better himself and had come to terms with the situation. What he regretted was getting agitated at the mention of DNA and compromising his health.If only he could get his hands on the two stupid women for getting him and his wife stressed out. But he needed to exercise patience and set a trap."Can you trace the address that sent the reporter the pictures and fake story?" He asked his PI."The sender sent it from outside the country, but we will be able to track

    Greg was left standing, staring at her figure as she disappeared behind the gate, debating to himself and asking whether he heard correctly.He looked at the driver, who had his fists clenched and was breathing heavily. His reaction was an indication that he did not hear double. Nera just invited him and inquired about his tea preference. She still remembered that part of him. He quickly snapped out of it and ran after her. Nera had no intention of inviting him inside the house. She knew how insulting that would be for Marcus, so she led him to the gardens and asked the servants to bring black tea for the guest.Greg followed her and watched as she took a seat. She noticed he was keeping his distance as if he were scared of her. It was funny in some ways, but she maintained her cool."Please take a seat; I will not bite," she joked.Greg gave out a fake smile and took a seat."Thank you; I guess I am just shocked you invited me in," he replied."We are both adults, Greg; we moved on

    Another day passed, and Marcus was finally discharged from the hospital. He had not yet told Nera about Nicole's affair with the mayor. He wanted to hold on to the wild card, waiting for them to be caught together in the physical act.He knew telling her would result in her going public with the news or confronting Nicole which would result in the affair ending up as allegations especially since the nudes of the two cheating idiots did not contain faces.When he arrived home, Nera was so excited to have him back in the house that the second they both walked into the bedroom, she quickly closed the door and began kissing him."Nera, what are you doing?" Marcus asked"I missed you," she replied, and she kept kissing him. Marcus quickly held her hands, stopping her. He had recovered but was tired and needed rest."Sorry, my princess not today; the doctor recommended that I get some rest," he replied disappointing her.Nera frowned, ever since she got pregnant her hormones were all over

    Nicole arrived home like a thief, whose eyes were all over the place searching if anyone was watching her. From the switched-off lights, she could tell that everyone was asleep.She tiptoed inside, hoping to get a quick bath and get the stench of the mayor off of her body.She was about to get on the stairs when the lights turned on. Greg was standing on top of the stairs with a bottle of alcohol in his hands.He looked at his watch, then at her."I already informed you that I was running an errand," she replied, trying to get past him.Greg barricaded her and ordered her not to move."Get out of my way!" She yelled at him.Greg grabbed her by the arm and said, "You do not give me the respect that I deserve in this family!" He yelled.Nicole glared at him, irritated. She was tempted to slap him but contained herself."I will say this for the last time, get out of my way!" She warned him.Greg grabbed her by the collar and dared her to do her worst."Greg, let go of me!" She yelled at

    Nera froze in horror. Texas was too big for Elijah to find her address in a single day.She was asleep and it was all a nightmare, he couldn't have guessed the right address. Someone must have told him, but she doubted Frank did. Now that she thought about it, she never told Frank either."Stay in here; I will handle this man to man," Frank said, asking her to lock the door.He walked downstairs and found Elijah spinning little Aria around who was giggling in excitement."Put her down!" Frank yelled.Elijah frowned and put the little girl down."Let's talk outside," Frank ordered."I am here for Nera and not you," Elijah politely replied."This will only take a second unless you are not a man and scared of a little talk," Frank stated.Elijah chuckled and led the way outside.Nera walked downstairs and ordered Sam to take Aria upstairs while she locked the door. She did not have time for the two fools, though she was curious to know what they were talking about so she stayed in the k

    "How did you get in without knocking?" Uncle Luke got up, irritated. "Nera, talk to me!" Frank ignored him. "Are you carrying my baby?" He was at the door and about to knock when he heard the word "abortion."Nera looked away, irritated."Nera, you cannot abort my child! You cannot punish the unborn child for my mistakes," he began pleading with her."It's not your baby," Nera replied without thinking. She wanted him out of the house. He had no right to listen in on a private conversation.She walked up to him and folded her arms."You were not the only one that I was fucking in that house!" She yelled at him.Frank felt a sharp pain in his heart as he moved a step backward. He had tried to ignore the fact that Nera was fucking Elijah too but it looked like she wanted to hurt him it.Uncle Luke stared at Nera out of words and decided to walk out of the house. All the anger he had intended to throw Frank out of the house with, vanished. He was tired of the drama and just wanted to go

    Uncle Luke finally came to his senses as he breathed in and out. His hand was covered in blood from the punches he had landed.He looked at Frank, whose face was also covered in blood and still in a kneeling position.Nera had her hands over her mouth in shock. Everything was happening so fast.Greg quickly pulled Uncle Look out of the room and told Nera to close the door in order to prevent Sam and Aria from entering the room.Nera thanked him and closed the door.Frank was still motionless on his knees."Are you okay?" Nera asked, not sure what to say."I am fine, Nera," he replied.Nera walked to the bathroom and grabbed a towel for him."Would you get up from the floor?" She instructed."How can I get up when I am still trying to tell you the other side of my story?" He asked."Frank, you are hurt!" She yelled at him, irritated."Not as hurt as the feeling in my heart," Frank replied. "To be honest, I did not feel the punches. The pain is in my heart, and I am not leaving until yo

    A week elapsed, with Nera spending most of her days in her room. The crying stopped days ago, and usually, she just stared out the window.The window that she had jumped out of the night of her wedding which eventually led to her meeting Marcus.The door opened, and Sam ran in excitedly."Mommy, Mommy, JR will be here," he said.Nera smiled. She was only glad the horror happened when her two children were too young to understand anything."Is this the new friend you made?" She asked."Yes, his father wants to take us to see the horse rides," he said.Aria ran into the room too. "Mom, I want to go too," she said."I do not think..." Nera tried to speak, but Sam interrupted her."His father says he knows you, and if you want, you can tag along," he said."What?""Please, Mom, let us go," Aria began pulling on her.Uncle Look walked into the room."Let them go; JR is a nice kid," he said."You know this boy? Who are his parents?" She asked.Uncle Luke cleared his throat. "Yes, JR has bee

    Nera slowly opened her eyes. A white ceiling was staring back at her, and she could tell she was not in hell yet, though she would have preferred it."Nera, thank God you are finally awake!" Uncle Luke rushed to her side.Nera looked around, surprised that he was in Georgia."Uncle Luke," she whispered."Yes, dear, it's me. I came as fast as I could when I received a call from that nurse," he said, holding her hand."Aria…Sam?" She asked."They are with the nanny; I called her too," he explained.Nera closed her swollen eyes."According to the nurse, you fainted when you read the DNA results," he asked. "Whose DNA results are they?"Nera was quiet; she did not have the energy or will to explain the horror she found out, and that was why she had hoped to have woken up in hell."Nera, please talk to me; I am your uncle, and I promise I will not get mad," he said to her.Nera opened her eyes. "Take me to Texas; I will do something stupid if I stay in this place longer," she requested."

    Frank and Ireen sat in the garage in silence. They heard the gate open and a car driving in and out, and they knew it was Nera leaving. Frank was supposed to run after her and tell her his side of the story, but he had no energy to get up. His entire world was crushed in front of him. He never expected Nera to find out about the contract, and even if she did, he pictured an environment where he sat her down peacefully and told her everything himself. But seeing how she attacked him and the hurt in her eyes, it numbed him down. "You have to get up, Frank," Ireen said, breaking the silence. Somehow she was relieved the woman got to know about the contract, even though she did not like how she discovered it. Now they needed to start planning for the aftermath. There was a slim chance Nera was going to press charges, but she was a scorned woman, so anything was possible. "You need to call your lawyer and get ready," she replied. Frank looked up at her. "Is she ever going to forg

    Nera's stomach contracted into a tight ball as a wave of acid welled up from her belly. Her eyes were completely dry; she had cried already, and there were no tears left.She grabbed the phone from Elijah and played the recording again. This time, memories came flooding back of how difficult it was for her and Marcus to have a child.It had taken Marcus a long time to take a test, and even when he got the results, they tried, but she did not get pregnant. He refused to adopt or for her to undergo artificial insemination.He insisted on having Rashwell blood and kept insisting they make a baby the natural way. Then they went to Alabama, and he came with the beetroot herb and the sex drugs.The sex became hot; it was different, but she thought it was the herb because she was slow in the head, and she finally got pregnant. But after they found out that Sam was allergic to dairy products, they tried to have a child again and failed. Every test came out negative until Frank showed up. Mar

    Without warning, Ireen landed a hard slap on Nera's face and screamed in frustration.She did not move, and neither did she flinch."Don't you have some dignity?" Ireen yelled. "What will your children think of you? What explanation would a mother give to her children when she brought them into a stranger's house to have a good fuck?" Nera kept her eyes fixed on the floor in silence."You couldn't even leave them with a relative, but you brought those innocent kids for your prostitution rides!"Nera finally looked up, her hands clenched into fists. Her breathing became rigged, and she was tempted to punch the woman in the face, but it took all her might to control herself.Ireen paused her words for a second."I will ask you, woman to woman, mother to mother, please leave. If you really love my son, then free him and let him go," she begged, getting on her knees.Nera moved away in confusion; she was not expecting to see the woman on her knees considering how she had stormed into th

    Nera could hear her own heartbeat as the woman began moving closer to her. Even though the two never met, Nera had seen photos of Ireen, and she knew what the woman looked like.And from the way she was looking at her, she could tell she was not there for a friendly visit.Frank quickly grabbed Ireen's hand before there were any confrontations."Let go of my hand now," Ireen yelled."Mom, calm down. What are you doing?" Frank asked her, his eyes searching for the presence of Shelby."Please, Mom, not here; Shelby is home," he pleaded with her.Ireen looked at her son, who was breathing heavily, then at Nera, who averted her eyes. "Mommy, I am hungry," a little girl said as she walked from the kitchen. "Mommy, come and finish making the porridge," she said, pulling on Nera.Nera's eyes were fixed on the floor, she did not move or flinch. She thought she had prepared for the day she would meet Ireen but she was wrong.Aria looked up at Ireen."Uncle Frank, who is that?" She askedIreen
