MIRANDA

"Miranda?" Collins woke up at this point and called out my name in surprise when he saw me.

"Hold on, Hazel," ignoring Collins, I got off the bed and ran after Hazel, stopping him just outside Collins' room.

"Miranda, why did you sleep in Collins' room?" Mrs. Hermes asked me before I could speak to Hazel.

"I don't know," I told her. "The last thing I remember is drinking the glass of alcohol you gave me in one go after we toasted."

Her eyes widened in surprise, "Really? You were just a little drunk last night when you left me. You told me that you wanted to be with the love of your life and I asked you to go to him."

"Wow!" Florence suddenly exclaimed. "It is said that the heart doesn't lie when a person is drunk. Miranda, how dare you consider Collins the love of your life when you are married to Hazel?

Why did you marry my brother when you knew you were in love with my son?"

"Shut up!" I yelled. "Stop spouting nonsense, Florence."

"Hazel, it's not....."

  • Forced To Marry My Ex's Uncle    MY HEART IS IN PAIN

    MIRANDAAfter walking away from Collins, I thought about his words. He didn't mention Shayla's name but I had a very strong feeling that she was involved. She must have deliberately left last night to ensure that no accusing fingers were pointed at her.Wasn't it convenient that Hazel; the only one who could stop me from making a mistake in my inebriated state was busy caring for his daughter last night? Was she really sick or had that been a plan as well?Knowing Shayla, it was very possible. She reeked of desperation and it was obvious. Something also seemed fishy about the way Hazel fell asleep last night and did not wake up until morning. If it happened that Shayla deliberately made Princess sick, then I had to find out. It was obvious that she did not really care about Princess as a mother ought to. If she did, Princess would not have been molested right under her nose. She valued Princess because she saw her as a means to an end.If only I could get through to Hazel and make h

    MIRANDAI no longer had anyone on my side.I didn't trust Collins who was acting like he wanted to help me. My mother-in-law was not around and Hazel did not want me close to him anymore.Thinking about Mrs. Hermes, I clenched my jaw. I had to do something to pay her back, otherwise I would always feel cheated.I spotted her outside with her husband, playing with their grandkids. An idea occurred to me and I went back to their room.The door was not locked so, it was easy for me to get in. Despite my sudden hatred for her, I didn't want to do anything extreme because I would feel guilty if she died.I went straight to their bathroom, got inside, and took out the keys from the door. I noticed a bunch of keys on the bed and picked it up. After observing the bunch of keys, I figured out the key for opening their room and took out one of them before hiding the bunch under the bed. Afterward, I left the room.I kept on watching her secretly but to my disappointment, her husband was the one

    MIRANDA I didn't know how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes, it was already evening.I yawned as I felt very hungry. My stomach began to hurt and I was forced to remember the medication Hazel's doctor had given me which I left in Hazel's other house.I had to eat and had to take the drugs too. But first, I called Hazel to inform him I was going out. However, he ignored my calls, despite the fact that I called three times.I got dressed and asked the butler to take me to Hazel's other house so I could pick up my drugs. On my way out, I saw Shayla, returning from whatever hole she had crawled into.I pretended that she was invisible and moved out of the way so I would not have to speak to her. However, she deliberately struck my shoulder with hers and chuckled, "Have you become such a weakling now? No will left to fight?"I turned and stared at her as she added, "Don't make that sad face, honey. You knew this was going to happen. I mean, I gave you head-ups and told you I wanted

    MIRANDA Hazel sat on his bed drinking. His laptop was beside him to indicate that he had been working. Other than the bottle of wine in his hand, there were two bottles on the floor and he had already emptied them.He seemed lost in thought and did not even turn when I entered his room."Hazel," I called his name and moved closer to him."Get out," he ordered when he turned and looked at me."I am not leaving," I told him. "We need to talk, Hazel."He shook his head, "No, Miranda, I am not in the mood to talk. I don't want you to be around me right now. Please leave, otherwise I will leave the house and go somewhere else."I stood for a while, staring at him. I recalled how I had been explaining myself to him since Collins and everyone else arrived and clenched my jaw in anger.Without another word, I turned and walked out of the room.Shayla was standing outside the door and the moment she saw me, she chuckled, "All that big talk but Hazel sent you away like an unwanted fly.

    HAZELI sat in my guest room drinking. I knew the alcohol would not help me get rid of my pain in my heart but I hoped it would make me forget for a while.I had to send Miranda away when she came into the room. Didn't she understand when I said I needed space?I kept recalling how Florence said Miranda went to Collins' bed because he was the love of her life. I didn't want to be this way but I couldn't help myself.I didn't know if it was my ego or my heart that had been broken, but I felt miserable. I couldn't blame Miranda, it was not her decision to marry me in the first place.Ever since Collins appeared, I kept remembering how she had told me back then that she was in love with someone else. No doubt it was Collins, so how could I not feel hurt? I had a strong desire to kick everyone out of my house and try to fix things between Miranda and me. They were being unnecessarily noisy anyways.However, it was easier said than done. I had given my consent for them to come because my m

    MIRANDAWhen I arrived home, I stood outside, staring at the door. My family had not decorated the house yet, which meant I was in time for part of the fun.I took in deep breaths, trying to calm my mind. I didn't want to show any weakness or sadness before my mom because I knew it would break her heart.I knocked on the door and my big brother opened it."Miranda!" He exclaimed.My mom who heard his voice ran out of her bedroom and came to me. She stared at me in surprise and I pushed my brother out of the way and hugged her."My baby, why didn't you tell me you were coming?" She asked."Bring in her luggage," she ordered my brother when she noticed my box outside."You do know I'm her senior, right?" My brother reminded my mom who glared at him.He took my box into my room while my mom led me to the couch and sat beside me.She caressed my face as she beamed, "Wow! Look at your glowing skin and your branded clothes. You look so sophisticated now.What about your husband? Did he brin

    HAZELThe moment I introduced myself, Miranda's mother frowned. It seemed as though she was about to go out because she was all dressed up."What do you want from Miranda?" She asked impatiently and I gulped, finding myself at a loss for words in front of a woman whose mannerisms were exactly like my wife's.""Brother-in-law!" A voice suddenly exclaimed and the door was opened fully as a young man I presumed to be Miranda's brother hugged me.I felt very uncomfortable but could not afford to push him away as he seemed to be on my side.When he took a step back, I got a closer look at him and recognized his face. "You must be Terrence!" I remarked.He nodded enthusiastically, "Yes!"Miranda's mum turned and headed back into the house."Mom, can I come in?"I asked and she turned and nodded.As she sat down, I walked into the house and sat down as well. It was the first time I entered Miranda's family house.I felt very bad that I had been married to Miranda for a while, yet they lived

    HAZELI smiled awkwardly, "What I mean is that I really want to see Miranda. I won't be able to taste even water until I have seen her.""I know where she is," Terrence blurted. "If you want, I can take you to your wife."I smiled at him, "I would really love that. Thank you.""She's not at home right now, so...come with me." Once Terrence got to his feet, I stood up as well and told Miranda's mom that I would be back.I began to stroll with Terrence who told me that Miranda was sitting alone in a garden not far from where we were.As we got closer to the garden, he said to me, "Do not worry, brother-in-law. If Miranda gives you a hard time, I will yell at her, and trust me, it will reset her brain."I turned, stood in front of him, and warned, "Listen, Terrence; No one is allowed to yell at my wife, not even you."He raised his hands, "Okay, boss. I was just kidding."I smiled, "I really like you, Terrence."He smiled back and I realized he had the same eyes as Miranda.We entered th

    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

    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

    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
