"I'm your husband now, Janice. Give me your hand, and don't do something stupid," Connor Hughes whispered those words that sent shivers down my spine, and I knew I was doomed for the rest of my life. I was supposed to get married to Carl Hughes, but his brother, the person I feared the most in life, showed up instead. Standing in front of the altar together, my heart pounded hard against my chest and the smirk that played on his lips made me regret ever playing a trick on this man. If only I could be given another chance to make things right, but it was too late. Just two weeks ago, I was happy, duping this man, thinking I was smart, little did I know that I would be tying the knot with him today as his wife. "You may exchange your rings now," My heart stopped beating as I watched him slid the diamond ring into my finger while having a deadly smirk playing at the corner of his lips. The ring felt like shackles of bondage, a promise of lifetime nightmares and miseries, something I wasn't sure I would ever be able to escape from. There were only two things involved. It was either I have a happy ending, or a sad one...

Chapter 103Janice POVI walked in on Carl smoking in his room, and I scoffed unbelievably. How could he still smoke in this situation?"Carl...""I want to be left alone," He cut me off without even allowing me to say anything, and I scoffed and rolled my eyes. At first, I was sympathetic toward him, but after hearing about everything that transpired between them in the past, I couldn't help the disgust I felt toward him at this moment. I understand how miserable Connor must've felt, the trauma he must've been through when he found them like that, and to think that he never felt remorseful about his actions. I didn't know what could be more cruel and disgusting."Why did you do that? Why your brother's wife of all women out there?" I asked him, trying to be calm. I was so disgusted with him that I couldn't even stand the sight of him. "I told you I want to be alone, Janice," He looked at me as he puffed smoke from his nose and mouth, his eyes were red and filled with anger. I was sup

Chapter 102Connor's jaw dropped to the ground as he stared back at Carl. For a moment, this felt like a dream to him. This couldn't be true, right? This person wasn't his brother who passed away months ago, right?"Why do you look so shocked to see me? You probably thought I was dead, didn't you? Are you disappointed?" Carl asked as he walked over to stand in front of Connor, but he was still too shocked to say anything.Connor opened his mouth to talk, but words failed him as the only thing he could do was stare at Carl from his head to his toes. When their eyes met, he took his time to check out his eyes which was said to have been destroyed the other time. It almost seemed like nothing happened to the eye. Was this really Carl or was someone impersonating him?"It's good to see you again. Are you as happy as I am?" The corner of Carl's lips twitched up into a smirk as he stared back at Connor. Although he wasn't prepared for them to meet now, he needed some more time to prepare hi

Chapter 101Connor POV'Carl is alive' Those words kept replaying in my head as I drove restlessly down the road. I had to confirm this myself because no way I was going to believe it without doing confirmation."Can you calm down, please? You are going to get the two of us killed," Chase uttered as he held on tightly to the seatbelt, but the only thing on my mind was to get to that house and confirm this.Thirty minutes later, I finally pulled over in front of the gate and stepped out of the car. I banged the bar gate impatiently while waiting for whoever was around to come and get the door, and after a few minutes, I saw a guy of about the same age as Claire, stepped out of the house."Who are you?" He asked as he strode down toward the gate where we were waiting."How may I help you?" He asked as he finally got to the gate."Where is Janice?" I asked him restlessly, and he gave me a long confusing stare."Why do you want to see my sister?" He asked me, and my jaw dropped to the gro

Chapter 100"What did you say you wanted to talk to me about Janice?" Connor asked desperately as soon as Chase pulled the car over in front of the restaurant."Why are you being so desperate, Connor? I'm not going to tell you, not until we have lunch together," Chase replied to him as he removed his seatbelt and stepped out of the car."If you tricked me into coming here, then I'm going to be so mad at you, Chase," He reminded Chase as they both walked toward the entrance door of the restaurant."I'm not trying to play you, trust me," Chase assured him, but deep inside him, he knew there was nothing to talk about. He only wanted to get him out of the office so he could eat good food even if it was just for the day. He hadn't been eating well, and he was just being like this as a concerned brother.Chase ordered food for both of them, but Connor could barely eat his food as he was being eaten up by his curiosity, dying to know what his brother brought him out here to discuss."Trust m

Chapter 99"I'm sorry, Sir... It was a mistake," The video editor, a young slim lady quickly apologized to Connor as a different image from the presentation they were having that day at the office, popped up.It was on a Monday morning, and Connor's company was doing a presentation for the new product he was about to release, but the video editor who was in charge of the presentation seemed to have messed things up."What is the meaning of this?" Connor lost it, so he slammed his hands on the table and rose to his feet."What is the meaning of this nonsense?" He yelled at the lady, not minding his business partners around. This was something he could've handled carefully and calmly, but fuck it! He had a lot on his mind already and had no patience left in him to do this carefully."I'm sorry, Sir... I didn't mean to...""Were you blind or something? You were fucking paid for this, so what happened?" He thundered at the lady again, and she panicked."Sir, you need to calm down, please.

Chapter 98Janice POVMrs. Hughes didn't deserve any of the pain she was being through, and seeing her earlier broke my heart. She was a nice woman who never deserved the treatment she was given. I could understand how eager she must've been upon realizing that her son whom she had been mourning for months was alive, and the heartbreak she must've suffered when he pretended not to know her.The sound of the knock on the door pulled my attention."Who is there?" I asked."It's me. Can I come in?" My heart missed a beat and I rose to my feet when I heard Carl's voice from outside. I swallowed nothing, my heart hammered hard against my chest and I fondled with my fingers. I couldn't stop him from coming inside the room and I couldn't also send him away."Can I come in?" He asked again, and this time, I was left with the only choice of letting him in. The door opened, and he walked inside. As usual, he was wearing a pair of black short trousers and a black casual shirt."I've been home ov

Chapter 97"What are you saying, Chase?" Mrs. Hughes' eyes narrowed in shock after Chase told her about what happened back at Carl's house."Mom... I...I...I saw Carl... I saw Carl... I really saw him," Chase stuttered, his heart pounding hard against his chest, his lips quivered fearfully. "Stop joking around with me, son... How is that possible? Your brother is dead... Carl is fucking dead!" Mrs. Hughes felt like she was losing her mind, this was hard to believe because the last time she checked, her son was dead. He had died months ago and it couldn't be possible that he was the one Chase saw, but Chase was sure of what he saw. He was sure that person was his brother whom they thought was dead."Mom, why are you not believing me?" Chase ran his fingers through his hair crazily like he was about to lose his mind. Apparently, he had already lost his mind and thought he was going crazy that moment that he saw Carl."How am I supposed to believe you, Chase? How am I supposed to believ

Chapter 96Janice POV"Sweetheart, let's go inside," Carl faced me and smiled at me, but that smile meant something else and if I could do anything, I would start running right away from here.Chase was too shocked to talk, so he just stared wordlessly. I had expected that reaction, anyway. I mean, this dude was believed to have been dead, and popping out of nowhere now was really shocking."Come on," My heart missed a beat when he placed his hand gently around my shoulder like the gentleman he never was, and I was left with only one choice, and it was to follow him.I wished I could disappear at that moment as he led me back into the house. My heart pounded hard against my chest, my breath hitched momentarily and I felt suffocated as the thought of the hell that awaited me behind those closed doors hit me hard.Nobody was in the living room when we got there, so he led me to the room, and as soon as we got inside his room, he slammed the door close and locked it."Ca... Carl... I did

Chapter 95Janice POVCarl called me about an hour ago to inform me that he was on his way, and I didn't wish for anything more than for him to not make it here. Of course, I knew this was extreme, but what was I supposed to wish for when he had made my life into a living hell?After breakfast with my parents and Jeff, I returned to my room since I couldn't go anywhere else aside from being here.Sitting on my bed and just staring into space while wallowing in my own thoughts, a knock sounded on my door, and when I ushered whoever was at the door inside as I was too lazy to go open it myself, the door opened and Jeff walked inside."Jeff?" I called surprisingly."Someone is here to see you, sis," My heart skipped when he said that, and immediately, many thoughts came parading my mind. Who could that be? Could it be that it was Connor that came back again? I asked myself and swallowed nothing."Who is it?" I asked curiously as I stood from the bed."He is outside the gate. I was on my

Crazy Janice
Chapter 1 Janice POVSeeing how pretty I looked while staring at my reflection in the mirror as I added make-up to my face, I couldn't help the smile that laced up my lips. Being pretty is something to be proud of, especially having a sexy goddess body as me. I'm not bragging, but I didn't really need anyone to tell me that I'm one hella sexy young lady. 5'8 tall, slim with round butt and full chest, long black curly hair, long natural eyelashes, thick eyebrows, sharp jawline, pointed nose, sexy brown eyes, sexy lips that men drools over, and a sweet contagious smile to compliment my look. This has been one of the reasons my client wouldn't stop going crazy about me.Again, I was getting ready to meet one of my clients, a new one at that. Unlike every other random clients I have, this one was like a big fish for me. We met at the club last night and scheduled to meet today at his penthouse.
