MIRANDA

I could not believe what was happening. I pushed Hazel with all the strength I could muster and snapped, "How dare you?"

I wiped my lips with my arm as I shot daggers at him.

He folded his arms and chuckled, "Cut out the act, Miranda. Isn't this what you wanted?"

I stared down at him as my heart raced faster than it had ever done before, "How the hell did that sick brain of yours come up with such a ridiculous conclusion?"

"Am I wrong then?" He seemed really confident as he spoke and it made me wonder if I had indeed given him such an impression. Yes, I did a few crazy things but I told him afterward how much I hated him.

"Didn't my mom put you up to this?" He asked.

"Your mom?" Was he about to blame his mom for his stupidity?

"Okay tell me, what exactly do you want from me?" He asked, the same smile from earlier playing at his lips.

I wanted to tell him that I wanted to leave but I knew he would bring up my family's debt. How else could I let him know that I wanted him to se

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    WAKE UP!

    MIRANDAWhen I woke up the next day, I had no desire to go to school, despite Mel's attempts to convince me otherwise.After having breakfast, I spent most of the day with Princess. I played with her, sang and danced with her and we even ate lunch together.Her mom called the nanny to speak to her and thanked me when she learned that her daughter was having so much fun, thanks to me.When evening came, I knew Hazel was going to be back soon, so I reminded Princess, "Don't forget to tell your daddy that you don't like me and you want him to send me away.If he asks you why, tell him it's because I shoved you, okay?""But you did not shove me," she replied.I smiled, "Yes, dear. We both know I did not shove you but you need to tell your daddy that I shoved you. If you do that, he will get mad and send me away."But I don't want him to send you away. You are nice and you are my friend," she pouted.I sighed and asked, "Do you want your mommy to live here?". She nodded.I smiled, "Good g

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    I PROMISE YOU

    MIRANDA I finally said it but I didn't know what would come out of it. The way Hazel left my room quietly had been unexpected. I couldn't deny that it made me feel uneasy since he was someone who always knew how to make a comeback. Was my family going to suffer because of this?I decided not to dwell on it. I was ready to deal with whatever Hazel threw my way but why did Princess ruin my plans?I quickly washed up and had breakfast. Mel had taken the morning off because her attention was needed at her company, for a performance review. I had already submitted a review on how she was the most amazing staff of the Dukes at her company's site earlier and I told her to take her time because I was spending the day at home.I had planned on making good use of the three days Princess had before she went back to school but now that opportunity was gone."Why did you expose my plans?" I stomped into Princess's room and questioned her after having my breakfast.She shook her head, "No, I told m

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    ARE YOU OFFENDED?

    MIRANDA After bathing Princess, I put her to sleep in her room and thought about what to do. It was a sensitive issue so I had to be careful with it.I naturally would have taken it to her mom but it was her boyfriend. As much as I wanted to believe that a mother would always fight for her child, I didn't know her well enough. What if she decided to cover up for her lover? How would Princess get justice?I had two other options; my mother-in-law and Hazel. If Hazel could get so mad because I taught his daughter to lie, then I knew without a doubt that he would kill this so-called Uncle Benny and that was very fine by me. He deserved worse than death.After making up my mind, I called Hazel's phone, wanting to ask him to come home but I realized he had blocked my number.I scoffed, "What a petty man!"I came out of Princess' room and spotted the nanny. I feared that once Hazel listened to the audio, his anger would also be directed at the nanny who had innocently made a phone call to h

    MIRANDA I got into the plane with Hazel and sat across from him. I was upset, not just because he had insulted my family but because what he had said might be the truth.After seeing my mom cry before me, I had believed her words. I didn't know her to be materialistic and so I thought my family really owed Hazel.Thinking about it now, I realized how ridiculous it sounded. If my parents were that financially indebted to him, I would have known of it before that day. Everything had happened so suddenly and there was also the fact that Hazel did not run a money-lending business.In spite of all these thoughts running through my mind, I wanted to believe that Hazel had spoken out of spite. Yes, his ego must have been bruised when I confessed that I loved someone else and he wanted to hurt me as payback.I sighed. Who was really lying to me?My eyes focused on Hazel whose long legs were crossed and eyes closed as he leaned back his head. I suddenly remembered Princess's issue and my ange

    MIRANDA I unlocked my door and went into my room. My phone was just lying on my table and seeing it made me so happy. I quickly charged it and dashed into the bathroom to take a bath.After changing into a new set of clothes, I got a little hungry but food was the last thing on my mind."Collins," I needed to have a conversation with him. Yes, I was very mad at him and I was going to make him grovel before considering the possibility of ever forgiving him.I took all the money I had in my bag and left the house with my two phones. The day was still young, so I knew it wasn't possible to find Collins at home.I took a cab to my school and began to look for him. A lot of students who recognized me were surprised. I didn't know where they thought I'd been and I wasn't interested in having that conversation with any of them.I could have called Collins to save me the trouble but I knew how that would go. After spending over twenty minutes searching, I finally spotted him.He had a smile

    MIRANDA My mom shook her head, "No, dear, I did no such thing. I would never sell you to anyone. You of all people should know that."I nodded, "Yes, I wanted to believe that. However, after learning that you were never financially indebted to Hazel or his mom, why should I believe anything else you say?"My mom sighed and I confirmed my suspicion. She had indeed lied to me about owing Hazel.My eyes brimmed with tears, "Why, Mom? Do you know how difficult it was for me? Overnight I was separated from my family and everyone I loved and, thrust into a world I never wanted to be a part of.Many times I thought of running away but I would remind myself that I was doing it for my family. I tried so hard to ensure that even if I left, you would be free from your debt to that man but it was all a lie?Do you know why I never tried to call you or Dad while I was there? It was because deep down I was upset with both of you for putting such a burden on me. All my emotions were wasted on a lie

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    DID YOU MISS ME?

    MIRANDAI sat across from my mother-in-law on the plane, just as I had done with Hazel, as we made the journey back.It was already dark at this time because we had spent hours at home. She had arrived with a lot of gifts for my family and decided to wait so I could meet with my dad and brother before we left.It was a happy reunion since I was no longer mad at anyone....except Hazel and Benny, of course.I still could not believe I had said goodbye to my mom in tears. When did I become such a crybaby?I noticed that my mother-in-law was staring at me and smiled. Now, I felt differently about her, as opposed to the first time we had flown together. She was a kind woman and lovable too. It was all thanks to her that I had someone like Mel by my side.She kept her promise to my mom and ensured that I was well cared for even when I knew nothing about their plans."You know you are really beautiful," she told me.My smile widened, "Nothing in comparison to you, Mom."She waved her hand, "S

    MIRANDA Hazel sighed, "What is your problem with my daughter, Miranda? Why won't you let her be?""Just shut up and listen," I shot back. "Something bad is happening to Princess and she opened up to me about it."He furrowed his brows, "What?""Listen," I continued. "Yes, I got very close to Princess at first because I wanted to get her to make you send me away but we became good friends. Her nanny wanted to bathe her yesterday but she refused. I offered to bathe her and Princess agreed. When I asked her why she didn't want her nanny to bathe her, she said something to me. However, she seemed very much afraid. So, I brought her to this room, locked my door and windows, and convinced her that she was safe. After that, she told me everything and I recorded what she said."And what did she say?" He asked.I took out my phone from my pocket and said to him, "I tried to tell you yesterday but you destroyed my other phone and took me back home. I was able to transfer the audio file to thi

    MEL I walked into the home of my best friend, Miranda which had been thoroughly decorated. "Mel! You came!" she exclaimed and wanted to get up so she could hug me. "No, you don't need to get up," I said stopping her. "You just brought a new life into this world and should get all the rest you need." She rolled her eyes, "It's been over three days, Mel and I feel quite strong. I gave birth but everyone acts like I'm handicapped. My mom, my mother-in-law, my husband, and now you." I laughed, "They can't help it. You are their princess. Where's everyone by the way?" She sighed, "They are all in my son's room. I instructed the maids to send you here because I wanted us to chat for a little. It's been a while." I sighed, "Yeah. It's been quite hectic, with my pregnancy and all. I rarely even go to the company because Simon takes care of everything and insists I should rest." Miranda smiled, "He is just like Hazel, but I can't blame him. Your stomach is protruding because y

    "Wow! I am so happy, Simon." Gia gushed. "I feel as though I am dreaming." "The party will be held at seven," Simon added. "When it's time, I'll pick you up and take you to the venue, okay?" She nodded her head excitedly. "Now, you can go back to your office, I have a lot of work to do." As she walked away, Simon smiled, "Finally, I'm going to put an end to all the drama and enjoy my marriage to the fullest." While in her office, Gia kept daydreaming about how the news of her upcoming wedding to Simon would go viral. Thinking about how sad Mel would be when the time came, doubled her happiness. After spending a little time in her office, she went out and did some shopping, getting herself a nice dress for the party. At six-thirty, she was ready and waiting for Simon to pick her up. She imagined how envious of her, people would be, as well as the various opportunities that would be open to her once she became Simon's wife. If only she had known that Simon would be the o

    After leaving the station, Gia went back home. She felt so happy that everything had gone her way and she began to celebrate. She changed the password of her door, just in case Simon wanted to come around to pay her a visit. She had a feeling it would happen anytime soon. When she heard a knock on the door, she opened it a little and saw her boyfriend, Bill outside. "What do you want?" She asked. Bill scoffed, "What sort of stupid question is that? And why did you change the passcode of the door?' She smiled, "Have you forgotten that this is my house? Yes, I paid for this house so I can decide to do whatever I want with it." "What has gotten over you?" He asked her in surprise. "Why are you being so rude? Move away, and let me in." However, she slammed the door on his face. He knocked on the door again while she went straight to the room and began to pack up his things. Putting all his stuff into a bag, she came back, opened the door, and threw his bag outside. "What

    Jude, who had spent the night at Riley's, showed up at Mel's company before she even arrived. He was filled with so much anger because of what Riley had told him, and he had four men with him, all armed. He planned to deal with Mel thoroughly. They hid and waited for Mel, until she showed up, went into the company and up to her office. Afterward, Jude led the men, and they all barged into Mel's office. When Mel saw Jude, she rolled her eyes, "What do you want?" He turned and gestured to the men, who took out their guns and pointed them at her. "What does it look like, Mel? I'm going to give you a taste of your own medicine. Simon has divorced you, so he is not here to protect you. Just as you forced Riley at gunpoint to say those things, I am also going to force you to your knees at gunpoint and make you clear her name. I will reveal who you truly are to the entire world." Jude snarled. Mel chuckled, "Is that what Riley told you?" She threw her head back and laughed, "Oh Ju

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    THIS IS GOOD NEWS

    After spending time thinking about what to do, Sandra finally made up her mind. She called Becky and Aria; the maids she had planted in Simon's house, and asked them to meet with her secretly. Since Simon was not home, it was easy for the maids to sneak out and hurry to meet Sandra at the agreed location.Sandra stared at the bottle in her hand, with the liquid inside it, and said, "I never wanted it to get to this Simon, It's all your fault. You just have to die. As for Gia, she will learn the consequences of double-crossing me. Gia, watch what I will do to you once Simon dies and I take control of the company. Both you and Mel will learn that I am not someone to be trifled with."Simon was in his guest house with Mel when he received a call from the man he had planted in Sandra's house. "Okay, thank you," he replied. After the call ended, he turned to Mel and said, "Finally, Sandra is taking that bold step we wanted her to take." Mel gasped, "Really? I never really thought sh

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    WE ARE DOOMED

    Sandra got out of her car, her face beaming with excitement as she thought, "Mel has signed the divorce papers, moved out of Simon's house, and found accommodation elsewhere. Meanwhile, Simon is having an affair with his ex, taking her out to dinner, and even getting intimate with her. How would Dad react to this amazing news?" She could not wait to present all the evidence she had before her father. She believed that once he realized that Simon's wife had divorced him due to his infidelity, he would never forgive Simon. Even if he did forgive him, their relationship would never be the same again and nothing could make her happier than that. Of course, that would also pave the way for her to get the company back from Simon. Because once his father gave him the order, Simon, who valued his father's approval and happiness more than anything, would have no choice but to obey him. When Sandra walked into the house and her father saw her, he sighed. She sat beside him and as

    After Riley left, Mel and Simon spent some more time together at his guest house, taking pictures, making videos, and talking about their plans before Simon eventually left and went back home. In the morning, while it was still very early, Mel got dressed and ready for work. She packed the fruit Simon had brought the previous day into a bag and left for her father-in-law's house. She planned to go to work from there, so she had to leave early because she had a lot to do at the company. When she arrived at his house, Simon's father was so happy to see her. "I have missed you," he told her. "I thought you guys had gotten so busy that you'd forgotten about me." "That is not possible," Mel told him. "Here, I brought some of your favorite fruits." He smiled, "Why did you go through the trouble? There are more than enough fruits here for me." "I know," Mel replied, "I just... I still wanted to bring something that you would like." "Thank you," he beamed. "You must have your hand

    When Mel opened her eyes, Simon was sitting up staring at her with one of his hands gently stroking her hair. "Good morning," She told him. "Morning, Darling," he replied. She was about to speak when he placed his hand on his chest as though he was in pain. She immediately became alarmed and sat up, "What is it?" Hand still on his chest, he smiled, "You are beautiful." She furrowed her brows, "What?" "How can you be so beautiful even in the morning?" He asked. "Just the thought that I won't get to see you until evening makes my heart hurt." She shook her head, "You are impossible. Is that the new pickup line these days?" He threw his head back and laughed, "Seriously, I have no idea. I'm just expressing how you make me feel." She looked at the time, "It's almost 5.am. You should leave now so our plan doesn't get ruined. He sighed, "It seems those two vultures are already awake. I need to be very careful." As he got up to leave, Mel asked him to wait, so she coul

    When Simon arrived at his company, he could not stop smiling due to the conversation he earlier had with Mel. However, when Gia walked into his office, dressed in a provocative black dress, the smile on his face disappeared, and he pretended to be sad. She stood on the other side of the table and said, "Simon, I know you told me not to come into your office, but I'm worried about you. I see the way you look sad and worried. For old times' sake, I can't just leave you all by yourself." Simon stared at her from head to toe and said, "I thought I told you that this form of dressing is not allowed in my office." She smiled, "Oh, I actually came with a jacket; it's just that it's in my office." He stared at her exposed thighs and scoffed, inwardly thinking, "I can't believe I was ever in love with someone this shameless." "It seems you have a lot on your mind," she said, turning to the other side and taking a chair with her so she could sit closer to him, "Do you want to talk
