JORDAN
The mansion suddenly had this empty, void feeling to it. And the maids who were always running to and fro from Genesis room to the kitchen and back to her room were no longer in sight like I didn't have one staff inside the house. It was quiet like no one else was in the house and I never realized that the sudden silence had left a terrible feeling in my troubled heart.
"Margaret...." I yelled uncomfortable at the way things were. I never realized how I had gotten used to seeing the staff with her in the kitchen or the dining. I was used to knowing she was in that house whenever I see staff going to her room because they liked her and for a strange reason, like to be around the woman I wedded. Unlike Samantha, who they always ran away from. I never realized that the atmosphere would change so much in her absence.
"Margaret..." I yelled again but this time, I turned to the st
GENESISLooking out the window, I watched as the sun rose and our car passed the buildings and houses that made the city. We were back in the familiar serene, quiet trail that led to the beautiful mansion of Jordan Chase. Yes, you heard me. I was officially going back to Jordan and it didn't leave a good feeling inside of me.After Jordan's words the previous day, my father had asked him to leave, he wanted to speak to me. It was hard, but he left reluctantly and I had breathed a sigh of relief after.I turned to my father and he once again pulled me into a hug. I settled in them, for it was the protection I needed, it was exactly what I needed at that point and I was really happy that they were there. The warmth of his embrace reminded me that I had someone who loved me, someone who would shield me, someone who would do anything for me. I was still his daughter, his baby girl and
********GENESISI heard noises in my room and quickly opened my eyes. I wasn't so deep in sleep and I spent the whole night rolling over and stressing over the decision I made. I wasn't so sure I did the right thing and I didn't want to end up regretting it. Coming back to Jordan was never a good idea from the start and the dreadful feeling in my stomach made my uneasiness worse.I thought about it for so long till I decided to relax. I had made my decision, I had done what I had to do, thinking or worrying about what the future held for me wasn't going to change anything at all. So I decided to let it all go and fortunately, that was the exact moment I felt like sleeping.I looked around my room to be sure of the noises I heard when I saw Margaret and Anna and realized it was morning already. I relaxed at the sight of them and took a deep breath
GENESISI gaped at Jordan and watched as he walked away and shut the door behind him. His words were shocking and the tone he used was even more shocking to me. But I was reminded of that Jordan that he was instantly. Caring, loving, funny, and free. The Jordan I had so many long calls with, that was a different Jordan that I had wished was the man I married, but he wasn't. He was a different person and once again he was different. The thought of having that same man changing again was almost a sweet sound to my heart. Just almost.I shrugged the feeling away and turned back to the mirror, then my phone beeped and I checked it. A message from Tiffany, asking me to join them on a shopping spree. I quickly told her I would be coming over and went ahead to apply lotion. My skin was all dried up already and it was all because of him. I quickly applied lotion, then I took out what Margaret had broug
JORDANTime passed by quickly and just as I had been doing the previous days, I got lost in my thoughts and missed all I had to do concerning work.My mind and thought had not wrapped around the thought of being with Genesis instead of Samantha. The woman with whom my heart belonged to. Yet I still couldn't believe she would do that to me. I had sacrificed so much for her. I had ignored my pending dilema and I had even accepted my fate but I waited for her. She said no to me once before and I waited for her, I refused every other woman and spent my precious time and days waiting for the day she would be mine. My love for her made me leave my wedding and go in search of her. My love for her made me bring her to the home which was supposed to be hers. I gave her all she ever demanded for. Money, care, attention and understanding. Most importantly I gave her my heart. I was ready to hurt someone else just to ke
GENSISTiana stared at me with wide eyes as I walked into the house while Jordan made his way to where ever he was going to. She looked like she had seen a ghost or probably seen something she shouldn’t have seen. Her mouth fell wide open and she was almost drooling all over the floor. I walked past her into the department and sat down on the closest couch I found. Then Tiffany came out of the room all dressed and excited for the day.“You took too long to get here,” she chided when she saw me. I sighed remembering all Jordan had done and how annoying it was and I found myself getting angry all over again especially when I remembered the way he had held me earlier. His words replayed in my held like a pest, a bee that has refused to buzz away from my ears. They were annoying words of course and they only got me angrier. But calling me his wife was one thing, saying he wanted to be a good husband and making me
GENESISTheir words cut deep like a knife and it made me feel completely overwhelmed with the memories and circumstances that led to my marriage. The questions thrown at me were no longer questions reporters usually asked. They were aggressive and loud and with the way they surrounded me, I quickly realize that a little birdy might have told them about Samantha. She was the only one who believed I stole something from her from the beginning. But their questions as well was not my biggest problem at all. Tiana and Tiffany blocked me away from them but from where I stood, I was still exposed to reporters that were behind me. And when that stone had hit, I grew suspicious of the people that surrounded me. Normal reporters were never supposed to do something so horrible to someone like me, but as I thought about this, I felt someone yank my hair forcefully in an attempt to pull my hair away from my skull. I yelped and turned around bu
GENESISI stared at his back and wondered what suddenly went wrong with him. I did absolutely nothing but try to help, I didn’t understand why he was suddenly so jumpy and hostile towards me.“Jordan...” I called out softly, believing that there had to be a reasonable explanation for his change of tone and attitude. He said absolutely nothing to me neither did he attempt to sit down or turn around so I could look at him.“I am sorry if I did something wrong, I was simply trying to help,” I added, though I was not understanding myself or why I was acting nice and apologizing to him when I had done nothing wrong so far. I heard him sigh after that and watched him run his hand through his head.“It’s nothing, and it isn’t you.” He finally voiced out and I breathed a sigh of relief myself. The harshness he had spoken with earlier had disappeared and his voice was clearer than it
GENESISAnnoyed at myself and the way I had handled the issue concerning Jordan, I stormed back to the left wing, where I rightfully belonged and straight way to my room. Anna came in the moment I sat down and she gave me a warm smile. I picked up my phone and spoke to Tiana and Tiffany for a while just to make sure they were doing alright.“I heard that you were attacked again,” Anna spoke up once I was done with the call. I said nothing and simply gave her a faint nod of my head. The reminder of my attack suddenly reminded me of the pain I had been inflicted with. I sighed heavily and thought back to how one minute I was surrounded by reporters and the next, I had thugs all around me, throwing bricks, stones and even whipping me with something. I slumped my back, and felt a sting that made me hiss out loudly.“Don’t move so much,” Anna came rushing in.“You have
