By the time he finished cleaning her, her temperature had gone down. He took off his shirt and clothed her with it. He finally laid her down on his bed and covered her with the duvet. Something was wrong with her but he couldn’t place it.He left the room to call one of his doctor friends. “Can you come over now? It’s kind of urgent.”“Don’t tell me you were shot and you need me to perform some miracle and stitch you up.”“How did you even come up with that conclusion? I’m not the freaking mafia.”“Then why do you need a doctor in the middle of the night?Jotham sighed, he hated being questioned. If he asked for someone then they should be there as fast as they could not interview him. “If I didn’t need you as much as I do now, I would’ve hung up the phone on your ass.”There was hearty laughter. “Of course, I know. That’s why I’m making the most of the moment. I’ll be there in five.He was there in fifteen minutes, and Jotham was pissed because Julie had gotten feverish again, and

Jotham hadn’t gotten any sleep because he’d been worried something would happen to Julie while he shut his eyes.So he stayed up all night, watching her and making sure she wasn’t uncomfortable.She had puked one more time and he’d held her through it before helping her rinse her mouth and tucking her back into bed.It felt like they were a couple with how in sync they were with one another. It felt so natural that Jotham had gotten carried away. He listened to her little sighs and stayed still when she hugged him tight in her sleep. He wondered if there was a chance that somewhere deep down she still had feelings for me. Because if there was, he’d like to start over with her and leave the past behind. When the sun started to rise he got out of bed. He knew Julie might not take too well to waking up in his arms. The cook was already in the kitchen but Jotham wanted to make it special for her. So he asked the cook to direct him instead on how to make her bacon and eggs. ***The fi

Julie chewed in silence, looking everywhere but where Jotham stood. He watched in silence satisfied with himself that he’d managed to render her speechless. “The tea, Mary, don’t keep my wife waiting.”Julie choked on the food. Jotham rushed over to her, patting her back gently but it only made matters worse. Because now all Julie could think of was every part of their skin that connected. It sent her heart into a frenzy.“Move away from me,” she forced out between coughs. He didn’t listen. She pushed him.Instead of being offended, Jotham retrieved a bottle of water from the fridge. He held her chin and tipped the mouth of the bottle to her. “Drink.” His voice was firm and hypnotizing that Julie didn’t know when she opened her mouth and drank it. The smile on his face as he fed her the rest of the food was satisfying. Mary served the tea and left them in the kitchen to give them some privacy. Jotham cleared the table after she was done, which was something he’d never done in the

Julie’s heart threatened to jump out of her chest as she raced into the house.“Why is Astrid on a stretcher? Why is there an ambulance? Somebody, please say something!” She was losing her mind. “She ate some of the cake Mirabel had brought for them in the morning. I didn’t know she had gone to the kitchen after I gave them breakfast.”Her entire body went cold. “Mirabel? She came to the house? What for? Why will she bring them cake? Was it poisoned?”She rushed to where they were putting Astrid in the ambulance. “Did she poison my child?” “Ma’am please calm down. You can come with us to the hospital.” One of the men told her while they secured Astrid’s stretcher in the ambulance.Jotham put an arm around. “Get in, I’ll speak with Trevor and join you shortly.” She nodded, the tears streaming down her cheeks as she watched Vesper who was a crying mess.“God please, let nothing happen to my baby, I beg of you.”Jotham waited until they were gone to ask Trevor what happened.“I’d spoke

Julie could not believe her ears. She knew straight away that there was no way in hell Mirabel had magically found herself in the same place as Jotham. “Liar!” Julie called to her face. “You’re a goddamn liar! You poisoned my children! What did they ever do to you?” Mirabel’s face twisted in agony, like she had been accused of the most cruel thing. “I might not be the most loving person in the world but I would never ever hurt children. If I have a problem I’ll settle it with you. I can’t believe you’re accusing me of such a thing.”People were beginning to gather in the hallway to know what was going on. Everyone recognized Dr. Julie and wondered what the problem was.Jotham tried to handle the situation. “Look, let's get a donor first and then we can settle this later. You’re with your phone, right? Call Trevor, he’s our best bet since he’s the father of the kids.”Mirabel smiled a little on the inside. They couldn’t be so sure about that, which was why she’d taken the risk and we

Mirabel watched it unfold right before her eyes. The nervousness when Trevor was entering the examination room. The grand finale was right around the corner and she was excited. She shot off a text to an unsaved contact. “Handled the bakery yet?”The response came in two seconds. “Yes.”Everything was going according to plan. The secret photographer had just sent her the shots he took of Julie leaving Jotham’s house dressed in his clothes.They were perfect, her face was showing. You couldn’t deny that it was photoshopped. Name a better mastermind than Mirabel. All tracks were covered. Mirabel intended to unleash a shocking revelation, cleverly manipulating the narrative to portray herself as the injured party. The people’s sympathy would get her a lot of monetary compensation. She stood up as soon as Trevor walked out of the examination office. “When are you ready to go in? It’s been two hours already.” Jotham was shooting off. “Aren’t they supposed to test you and all of that be

They all waited outside for the blood transfusion to be finished. Julie was a nervous mess unable to sit still while Mirabel scrolled away on her phone. It was almost midnight when they were finally done. Julie sprang up from where she was sitting the moment the doctor came out of the room. “Doctor, how did it go?”He took off his gloves. “It went really well. The donor and the patient are both fine. Your daughter will have to remain in the hospital, though; we need to check her vitals and then monitor her for some time to ensure there are no delayed reactions. Like a fever or allergic responses, you know how these things work.”“It’s alright, I’m just glad that she’s okay.”The doctor put a reassuring hand on her shoulder before leaving to attend to his other patients.Mirabel came up to her. “I’m very glad everything is fine. I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if anything happened to your daughter.”Julie met her with a blank stare. She was tired of putting up with her

“You all think the worst of me anyway. I can't even drop my own sister off. I hope the child gets better." Mirabel said. Jotham was about to respond when his head suddenly began to spin and he almost lost balance. “Are you alright?” Julie was alarmed, supporting him with her hand. “Do you want to go back inside and rest?He blinked severally trying to focus on the images in front of him. “Please take her home, Mirabel. I don’t think it's safe for me to drive." "I’ll walk you to the car,” he said to Julie. “You do not have to walk me down. Just go and rest, okay?" Julie insisted she didn't know why she was this worried about him. He had been up all these hours just because of a daughter he didn't even know was his. A notification suddenly came in on Mirabel’s phone, after seeing the content, she said, “It’s fine, let him walk you to the car at least. I’ve parked my car not too far from here."Mirabel led the way, schooling her face into one of agony and betrayal. Years of watching

There were only two things Jotham could do to protect Julie and the kids.One, turn Mirabel into the police and have her locked up for attempted murder. Two. Get them to stay with him while he finds a better way to deal with Mirabel and Marcus. Because locking Mirabel up first would make it harder to get her accomplice. Jotham had the recording of Mirabel’s confession on his phone, but he couldn’t use it yet until he found a way to link it to Marcus and bring him down, too. He should’ve dealt with him immediately after the drug incident. He took the bottle of liquor and poured himself a generous amount. All he could think of since the dinner he had with Mirabel was how the situation could’ve turned ugly. Cause what if the kid hadn't recovered?“The doctor said the results would be ready before the weekend. Want me to help you collect them?” Murray approached and asked. Jotham, deep in his thoughts answered. “Sure. You can bring it straight to the conference hall. And do you think

Mirabel had received a text from Jotham telling her to dress up for dinner and come meet him at the address he sent. Her best guess? He was going to break up with her publicly. Rightfully so. The game was coming to an end, but not for Mirabel. She had one last move to make on the chessboard.That day, she took extra care of her makeup and her hair. She’d cry, it was an easy task for her. It was staying pretty while that was the work, she had to look flawless in her pictures. After that, she rewarded herself with a glass of wine. Not everyone had the brains to pull off what she did. She knew that they’d collected the sample and sent it to the hospital and that in a couple of days, the paternity test results would be out. She could already guess what the result would be.Jotham was the father of the twins. She’d always thought of him as a smart businessman but he was downright dumb to the truth that was glaring in his face. She laughed a little on the inside. Her sister was a cunt.

The rumors that had been circulating online had taken a toll on Julie; it had been a hassle taking Astrid back to the hospital for her checkup cause she was trying to constantly avoid the media. Vesper sat beside Astrid, reading her stories. It made Julie grateful that they had each other. The doorbell rang and she froze. She’d become fidgety cause of the numerous bad comments she had read online lately. She was scared that the hate that Mirabel's fans were displaying online would somehow make it to her door. She wasn't just worried about herself—she was greatly worried about the kids too. Mirabel's fans can be very toxic. In walking over to the door, her face morphed into anger when she saw Jotham. She only let him in the cause of how caring he had been towards Astrid. She thinks avoiding Jotham is best for now even though he has been nothing but good and kind towards her and her kids. Sometimes, she secretly wished that they were actually a happy family. Jotham had really chang

"Julie, don't say a word. I'll have my lawyer file a lawsuit against them all." He guided Julie and Astrid inside the car while ignoring the many questions the media were spilling on his face. A few days later, the company was buzzing with whispers and hot takes about their CEO whose affair was plastered all over blogs and verified X pages.Another emergency board meeting had been immediately scheduled. This time, Jotham was not having it. He needs to find out who is fueling the media against him and handle them himself. The conference room was soon filled up. The investors were present, and so were the PR and the marketing team.Jotham just sat quietly. He wouldn’t have to fault the board on whatever decision they made; he has his own plans anyway. His supposed affair was the most talked about gossip that week. And the worst part of it all was that they were dragging Julie online for being a homewrecker. He could handle anything that was thrown at him, but he wouldn’t stand by and

Jotham looked at her like she’d grown two heads. He was confused as to what she was talking about and what the commotion in front of the hospital was.“Pictures are circulating on the net of you and Julie leaving your house together. They’re saying that Julie’s kids are yours and that you’re having an affair with her.” Mirabel explained better. I wish that were true, Jotham thought to himself. “It’s not news that I’m trying to win Julie back. As for her kids, we all know they’re not mine—these damn rumors are beginning to get on my nerves. Don’t they have anything better to do?”“Not exactly. To them, we’re engaged, remember? From the public's perspective, you’re cheating on me with my sister. You need to see what they’ve been saying in the media. It's worse.” Julie exhaled through her mouth, she just couldn’t catch a break. What the hell was she supposed to do now?She’d spent years hiding away from the media, living a lowkey life, and keeping her children from the public eye. It s
