After having her shower, she felt refreshed. She got out of her room and went straight to the kitchen to assist her mother. On getting to the kitchen, Jessica started washing the vegetables and diced them neatly. She collected the pawn and arranged the dining for the five of them. “ Jessica, hope your work isn't stressful? You know I can start working too to make things easier for you,” Her mum suggested, looking at her daughter. “ Mom, are we having this conversation again? Did I complain about anything? Just let me be the one to worry. All I want is your home cooked meal," Jessica said, smiling. “ I am just worried about you. I know you have your life to live too and _” “Mum! Do you want to complain to me or do you want me to help you in the kitchen?” Jessica exclaimed, looking at her mother who had a worried expression on her face. “ You know I am worried about you. Especially since your boss doesn't have a good reputation with young girls,” Mrs. Graves murmured, frying the

Edwin couldn't believe why Jessica would be all over James. He remembered how she was smiling when talking to him in New York, and he was very furious. Edwin remembered how Jessica did not show any sign of remorse when she saw him making out with a girl in his office, a girl he didn't remember her name. He only did all that just to make Jessica more jealous after what happened between them in New York. To calm his nerves down, he decided to call his best friend, Roy, to meet up with him in a bar. He needed someone to vent his frustration to."Hey, Roy. Let's meet up at our regular spot. I really need some company right now," Edwin said, sounding sad. " I am there. I will be waiting for you," Roy said over the phone.Edwin sighed as he cut the call. He got to where the car was parked and told the driver to go home. He wanted some time alone. Immediately he got there, he packed his car and walked to the bar. Walking faster, Edwin was eager to tell everything Roy. Maybe he could give

The following day, Jessica was still sleeping when her mum came to her room to see if she was awake. She hadn't heard from her last night because she quickly went to bed, claiming she was tired.So, Mrs. Graves had decided to check up on her the next morning, and it was already past the time she woke up to prepare for work. Maybe she truly was tired, Mrs. Graves thought. “ Jessica, are you awake,” Mrs. Graves said, trying to wake her up or else she would beShe didn't hear her response, she moved close to her bed and tapped her gently. If she doesn't wake up now, she would be late for work.“ Princess, you going to be late for work, you need to get up," her mother said, shaking her lightly.Jessica opened her eyes slightly as a ray of light entered her eyes. Still unconscious of the time, she yawned and was about to sleep again when her mother's words replayed on her head. She jumped up immediately from her bed.“ Mum! What's the time?"She shouted, scurrying out of the bed. “It's pa

Edwin moved his lip towards her and Jessica found herself holding Edwin by his neck. Her lips were pouting and her gaze was fixed on Edwin's face too. She was eagerly waiting for him to kiss her. Edwin was about to take initiative and their lips almost touched each other. But just that moment, the two were disturbed by the ringing of Edwin's phone. "Fuck!" Edwin swore inwardly. Jessica quickly took a step back with her hand on her chest. She wondered what she was about to do just now. If not that Edwin's phone rang just in time, would she have had her first kiss with this pervert?"Damn! He was a hot pervert!" Jessica said in her mind as she tried to compose her emotions. She looked down to see the picture frame on the ground. She felt sorry that she had broken it due to her inquisitiveness. If only she just left the office right away. She bent down to pick up the glass but Edwin stopped her, holding her hand.“Don't worry I will get the janitor to do it,” Edwin said in a calm ton

"I can't believe you got a car barely two months in the company! Girl, you are hot!" Misha said, forcing a smile just to cover up her jealousy."It's all thanks to you, Misha. You are my lucky charm. If you hadn't helped me out, I won't have gotten all of these," Jessica said, genuinely. She did not observe Misha's jealous tone."Still, you got all of it through your hard work. Tell me, what exactly did you do that got the company the contract?" Misha asked, a little baffled."The information was about to be hacked so I used my skills to stop it. That way, boss was able to secure the contract," Jessica explained." All I can say is that you are just too lucky!" Misha exclaimed.But James was looking at Jessica. He wondered if Edwin was behind the gift. He had noticed something weird in the way he looks at Jessica. Was there something going on between them?"Jessy, does boss know concerning the gift? Don't you think it's kind of surprising?" James asked, his tone skeptical."Cut it off

Getting to the apartment, Jessica walked to the living room while she saw her parents sitting down with their eyes fixed on her. Her father stood up and he hugged her, guiding her to sit down beside him." Dad! Mum! What is the matter, is everything okay?" Jessica asked, with a hunched shoulder. Although she was looking tired, she wanted to know what the problem was. " Yes, there is good news to discuss with you," Mrs. Graves said, biting her lower lip." Good news? " Jessica asked as she leaned forward. Staring at her parents, she settled down so she could listen to them. Jessica's dad holds her hands, as he looked directly into her eyes, " Princess, do you still remember Mr. Lester, in Los Angeles?"" Of course I do, the one you helped set up his pharmacy factory over there?"Jessica said, looking at her dad." Yes, he is the one. He called me last Monday if I will like to start working again, and I said yes. I received his call again today to inform me that he just set up a factor

"You know, I totally knew about the engagement and I shipped you guys! I gave him all the assurance he needed! You should have seen him. He was a sorry mess." Jessica glared playfully at her. "Oh so you knew and you refused to tell me? I knew something was fishy about the sudden request to go out."Edwin laughed and pulled her closer to his side. Before she could refute it, he turned her and kissed her deeply. Jessica's face went a very dark shade of red and she didn't know where to keep her face after being kissed like that in public."Pervert." She muttered."Baby, your husband to be?

Jessica continued paying him because he had only entered that state because of the kids.Friday before the weekend, Edwin watched Jessica perform all her duties and his heart fluttered. He couldn't take his mind off the fact that she cared about him enough to stay beside him in the hospital, refusing to let him be touched by anyone else except her. She even learned to clean his wounds just so that she could take complete care of him."Why are you staring at me?" Jessica inquired. They were alone at home. "Isn't it time to change my bandages? I've bathed and they have not changed for three days al

Babe, have you showered or changed since the accident?" Edwin asked."I couldn't leave your side," Jessica answered sheepishly."Well, I'm awake now. Go and shower and change and then you can return to stay with me." Edwin said. Jessica smiled. She went into the second part of the ward without much thought. Not long after, she returned with a different cloth."Have you had your changing materials the whole time?" Edwin demanded weakly.Jessica nodded."So why didn't you just change?"Jessica ignored his question. Couldn't he understand that she couldn't leave him for once Edwin tapped the space beside him. "Come lay with me." Jessica didn't waste any time. She was very exhausted too and knowing that he had survived the gunshot was able to keep her at rest.She lay beside him, careful not to touch any of the bandages or the IVs.

Once they arrived at the hospital, Jessica watched as the nurses ran out with a stretcher where they carefully placed Edwin. They wheeled him directly into the theatre to prepare him for the operation. Jessica was invited in by the doctor before the operation could commence."Miss, I just want you to sign the documents for the operation and perform the transfer of funds." The doctor said, "There's no need to ask if you want it to be carried out because I can see that you will do anything to save your husband."Jessica tore a check from her checkbook in her purse and signed it. "Here, fill in the amount that covers the entire treatment. I just want him to be fine."The doctor collected the check and the signed paper from her. He ushered her to the waiting room while he went in to perform the surgery.Jessica didn't sit. She was pacing the hallway to and fro. Occasionally, she would make a silent prayer for his safety.

It was morning already. Jessica's eyes were wide open. She hadn't slept a wink all night. She didn't just refuse to sleep, she couldn't sleep.

Tell me you've found them." Edwin said tiredly. "Eh.. we found the location. I'll send them to you. I've also assigned some officers to get there as well. I will also ask you to be careful because that's the outskirts of the city. Anyone who could kidnap kids and take them there could be a maniac.""Alright detective. I'll be on my way right now." Edwin said.As soon as Edwin dropped the call, his phone beeped with a text message from the detective. Reading the location, he went to find Jessica in the kitchen fetching water to drink.

Edwin hugged her. "I'm sorry, let me inform my investigator." Edwin dialed the private investigator immediately. He stepped out to speak to him. "Mr. Turner. I'm quite surprised to hear from you now. I have done what you asked me to do." The man said. "Not about that. Look, my kids are missing. I need you to help me find them." Edwin said. "I'm a computer hacker and software investigator, anything that happens in the physical world is not my job. You need to inform the police or hire a private detective." The man said. "Look, I need you to help me track the driver's number. I will report to the police, yes. But I want
