    “Daniella called to talk to you last night.” Richard divulged after she shuffled out of the bathroom.Charlene was stunned when he mentioned their daughter's name. She halted hesitantly, clenching her fists to abate a sudden fury that ignited inside her. She whirled with reluctance, then looked at him. “What else don't you understand about privacy, Richard?” She frowned. She couldn't conceal the irritation she was feeling, she was literally mad at him. She was planning to tell him about Daniella but she didn't want him to find out on his own. “Everything. But she kept calling.”She approached him intimidatingly, stopping in front of him and still maintained her hostile countenance. “How did you find out about her? Did you interrogate the nanny?”“Of course not.” He interrupted instantaneously, gazing at her as his face fell with disappointment. “Why should I believe what you said?”He groaned with frustration. The fact that she didn't believe him and she thought that he intentional

    She felt something usual the moment she was approaching the entranceway. Something undecipherable. Someone would have said she committed a crime, judging by the way some people were looking at her. Charlene thought coming to work today was the most awful decision she ever made. The way they were looking at her made her body itch. She mustered courage as she was sauntering over, she kept telling herself never to pay any attention to them. “What the heck is going on with them? They're making me uneasy.” She cleared her throat then stepped into the skyscraper.“Okay–This doesn't feel right.” A few crowds gathered by the entrance. One of them walked over with a rose, she handed it over to Charlene with a bright smile that kept lingering on her pretty face.“You're lucky, girl.” With that she stepped away.Charlene felt like her pump shoes were pinned to the floor, she stared at the rose in her hand. She would have thought about something else but she came to the office yesterday and Mich

    Letting her go might be hard but it was definitely the best thing to do. Richard had thought several times about what to do with their marriage, as it was now he was more willing to sign the divorce. Accepting another man's proposal cut deeper than other things. The best was to give up on her. He had done wrong, he admitted that he was guilty but Charlene was so adamant, he doubted if it was worth all the stress. It seemed like the whole history was about to repeat itself. However, he wouldn't allow what happened to Miguel to happen to Daniella. A day turned into weeks, he hadn't heard from her until Bryant mentioned Charlene getting married.Richard dabbed his lashes, perplexed. “Who's getting married?”“Charlene. Rowan told me and I sent my blessings.”“When? Charlene didn't tell me anything. Goodness, I need to talk to her right now.” Richard sprung up in a jolt, alerting Bryant's suspicion. “What's the matter?”“There's something I need to tell her and it's urgent, dad.”“I hope

    When she heard the sound of the doorbell, the first person she thought could be by her doorway was Richard. Both of them had an agreement that he would be coming over to the apartment. She stalked out of the kitchen, heading over the door. She threw the napkin onto the table before sidling over to the door. She unlocked the door, widening the door so he could come. “Good morning. I never thought you'd be coming this early. Come in, she's in her room.” She gestured him in.He walked in. “Good morning.”“Wait here. Let me get her.” While Richard walked to the couch, Charlene headed to the room. The sight of what she saw caused her to halt, her eyes popped up like she was staring at a ghost. “Daniella!” She yelled out horrifically.The little girl made misty eyes, staring at her mum while she put up her innocent act. “Mommy–” She smiled innocently.Charlene looked around the room, the total mess she had created. All the clothes were on both the bed and floor. Her toys were scattered

    “I want mom and dad to be together.” Daniella repeated, looking at all the guests in the church. Charles held the little girl's hand, petting her to stop crying.Charlene was completely dumbfounded. She felt a liquid dripping down her cheeks, when she raised a hand to her face she found out it was her tear. Michael faced Charlene. He had a painful smile on his face. No doubt, he was deeply hurt but he didn't want to make it obvious. On the contrary, anyone could see through him. He withdrew the ring and smiled brightly at Charlene. He understood her feelings. He understood her better than anyone else, both her pain and sorrow. “I know you're hurt, Charlene but I won't let you regret ever getting married to me. I know what you want, you never wanted this. I was just too afraid to lose you. I'll be more than happy to have you as my bride because you're the best woman anyone could ever wish to have. However, I'm willing to let you go if you don't want this. You don't need to feel guilty

    A week had already passed without talking to him, even if he came over to her place she knew it was all because of their daughter. ‘Wait here. I'll get her.’ That had always been the same statement she kept saying to him.There was no way she could run away from it anymore. However, she felt ashamed to face him. Apparently she wasn't mad at him for what happened as Charles had confessed to her that Richard never intended to attend the wedding ceremony, he was the one who convinced him to come over. There was no reason to blame anyone for it. In fact they saved her from a loveless marriage. Charlene shuffled out of the bathroom in a towel. She was heading to the closet when she noticed that her window was open and the breeze made the curtains make some weird sound. She walked over to the window, closed it and turned around. “Danny, were you the one that left the window open?” Charlene asked as she looked around the room. She thought she might be hiding somewhere. “Danny,” She called

    “Mom, wake up.” Daniella tapped Charlene gently on her arm. She noticed she wasn't responding to her call so she moved closer and tapped her again. “You've got to wake up.” Slowly Charlene yawned. Sitting up, she rubbed the heels of her hands on her eyes. “What's the matter?”“What's wrong with dad?” Charlene was muddled. She stared back at Daniella with the same confused expression she had on her face. “What happened to your dad?” Panicked, she looked eagerly at her. “He said he'll be right back. But when I touched him his temperature was low and he was shivering . Isn't that what you called fever?”Charlene looked at her left side to check the radio clock on the drawer. It was five o'clock in the morning. She drew the blanket over before putting her feet on the cold floor. “You should have woken me up when you noticed that. Where is he right now?”“I don't know. He left the room and he hasn't returned.”“Stay here.” She rose. She slid into her scuffs before standing. Daniella sh

    As he had promised her, the whole family went on a vacation. It wasn't long before they all returned home, Richard had to return to the office likewise Daniella had to return to school. Richard still didn't support her decision to start working, even if she was going to work not while she was pregnant. He was afraid that something bad might happen to her or their child.Now that the whole family was complete, Luciana couldn't ask for more. Back then she thought Henrietta was the best woman for his son because she knew how madly he was in love with her. However, things had changed and she didn't realize that her son's heart was now beating for someone else. It took long enough before Richard finally gave his mother a second chance, he still didn't believe her that she had no hand in what Henrietta did at the party a few years ago.Rowan couldn't be mad at his daughter forever. Of course, Charlene was his favorite and he loved her so much. Everybody was delighted that the couple was to

    Despite the doctor assuring him his wife was going to be alright, Richard was still restless. When Daniella finally woke up, he felt a bit better but he was worried about Charlene and their unborn baby. She didn't tell him she was pregnant, he found out on his own. He saw the pregnancy test on her dressing table. All he wanted to hear from the doctor was ‘Your wife is fine and her baby.’ That was the only thing that would make him happy.That was unlike Luciana, telling the cops to make sure Henrietta should be put behind the bar for good. Henrietta survived the three bullets but for the rest of her life, she would never be balanced. They captured Ray alive as he surrendered immediately guns were pointing at him, and Tom died.“Dad, is mum going to be alright?” Daniella took his hand.He looked down, carrying her up in his arms. He flashed her a painful smile. “She'll be fine.” The first thing he would ever do was apologize to her for all the trouble she went through because of him. I

  • Her husband's wife    There's no way out

    Henrietta knew Richard would come to her house so she took them to a warehouse located far away from where he could ever suspect. Everything she demanded was given to her. Her name was evicted from the blacklist, and the huge sum of money she demanded was given to her. It had been two days already yet she didn't let them go.She still hasn't gotten enough of what she wanted. She thought if she let them go Richard would come after her for abducting his family and that could put an end to everything she ever worked for. When her phone rang, she thought the caller was Richard but it turned out to be Dolly. She didn't bother to pick up the call, she didn't attend her engagement party. She supposed Dolly must have known she had already put an end to everything they had in the past. Henrietta was looking at Charlene and her daughter from afar. Far at the edge, she was hugging Daniella like a bird trying to protect its egg from a crack. Suddenly, she leaped up. Ray crocked his gun, ready to

    “Nanny Harley, is my wife back?” Richard asked, on his way toward the staircase.“Not yet. She called me an hour ago to inform me she'll be the one to pick up Daniella from school. I presume she called you.”“Oh. I missed her call. There was an important teleconference going on so I couldn't answer the call.” He explained. “Okay.” Richard sauntered to the room, as he stepped in he brought his phone out of his trouser pocket. The maid took his briefcase to its spot and then left the room. He thought of calling her but he decided to freshen up first. He unbuttoned his shirt on his way heading to the bathroom.Shortly after, he ambled out of the bathroom, looking fresh. He sidled across the room to the walk-in closet and got dressed. Wearing casual outfits since he had somewhere he was supposed to be in the next hour. He walked up to the bed, picked up his phone, and tried to call Charlene. Her phone was off. That was odd; he thought. He called again and again, yet he couldn't reach he

    She clutched onto his arms with her head lying on his bare chest, sleeping soundlessly. He had woken up but he didn't want to disturb her peaceful sleep. She slept late last night so he wanted her to get enough rest.She adjusted her body close to his and tightened her arm around his body like she was preventing him from getting out of bed. He chortled softly. “Love, are you awake?” He brushed her hair using his fingers. When she murmured, Richard hardly heard what she said underneath. “I need to get to work early today.”“Don't go yet. I want to sleep more. You should at least pay for keeping me awake all night.” With that, she adjusted, glanced over, and winked at him seductively.“I guess you're not going out today.”“Of course, I'm going to visit Veronica. She got discharged two days ago and I haven't seen my niece in two days. I miss her, I hate the fact that she resembles that idiot.”“Are you not happy that his baby takes after him?”“It would have been better if she took afte

    Richard had checked every room, looking for her. Daniella wasn't at home as Luciana ordered her driver to come to pick her up since yesterday, she hadn't returned home. Charlene was really happy about it because it was hard to have Richard all to herself whenever she was around. She was very attached to her father and wouldn't let him have Charlene's time. While walking around, he could hear some movement in the kitchen so he decided to check. He had something he wanted to tell her, in the next thirty minutes his driver would come over to drive him back to the mansion and he hadn't informed Charlene yet. He sauntered casually to the kitchen. He caught her sitting on a stool while she was eating, but something around her finger attracted his attention. “You're wearing the ring.” He said when he noticed the wedding ring on her finger. He was standing by the door, looking steadily at her. Charlene halted the knife close to the salmon steak, she moved the fork to her mouth and ate the
