Third POV***Henry arrived back home, He went up the stairs and made his way to Audrey's room.The door creaked open, he saw that he was asleep. A calm lullaby was playing from something that looked to be an audio player.Henry's eyes landed on the stars that appeared on the ceiling, it was one of those glow-in- the dark and they made the little boy's room look peaceful.He refrained from touching Audrey as he was scared of waking him up, instead, he placed a kiss on the forehead.He walked towards the door and shut it close, making sure to not disturb the little boy's sleep.After spending some time in Audrey's room, he decided that it was time to take a good night's rest.When he got to his room, he walked closer to the bedside only to see Abigail snoring quietly which made him chuckle.She was cute even while sleeping, Henry walked over and bent to give her a warm kiss on her lips.It was currently 1 am in the morning and he expected her to be asleep.Now that they were sharing a
Abigail's POV***The purple emerald chain glittered in the light. My hands traced the delicate links of the purple emerald chain, each one holding a small, glistening gem. I felt him draw me close, his arms wrapped around my waist. A warm breath tickled my shoulder, His head resting on my neck.We stood there in silence, our bodies close. Suddenly, I heard a whisper in my ear, so soft and low that it was barely audible. "Do you like it?"I nodded my head in response, grinning sheepishly as I felt butterflies in my stomach, it wasn't the first time that we were this close to each other."It's beautiful " I finally said while admiring my reflection in the mirror."Just like you"My cheeks flushed with color as I caught sight of myself in the mirror, realizing he could probably see the evidence of my shyness. I watched as a smile slowly spread across his face, and he winked playfully. "You are good with words Henry" I winked back at him and I saw him flash a devilish smirk.I stood st
Third POV***Despite the fact that her boss was now her boyfriend, Abigail didn't want to take advantage of their relationship and risk being late for work. She quickly changed into a knee-length dress, wanting to make sure she looked presentable. Meanwhile, Henry also dressed in a casual jean and a blue tank top.The fabric of the tank top was soft and stretchy, hugging his toned physique and accentuating his toned muscles and fair skin. "Are you planning to go to the company dressed like that?" Abigail asked, slightly embarrassed, Her gaze fell on his defined muscles, tracing the lines of his chest and biceps. Those were the features that could make a woman go crazy.As she stared at his muscular arms, she felt a surge of jealousy. The last thing she wanted was for him to go to the office in such a revealing shirt. Henry followed her gaze, he smirked smugly and said, "Don't worry about this honey, I'm your man."His response made Abigail cover her face with her hand, especially
Third POV***"Aunty, he isn't treating me right. It's not fair for him to disregard me like I didn't matter to him, I'm still his childhood friend."A younger blonde-haired woman paced angrily across the living room as she spat out her words in frustration.Kate shook her head in pity, a month had passed since her daughter's birthday celebration and Lisa had just arrived from Europe. It seemed like her absence had really destroyed the little relationship she had with Henry.Lisa tried to make it to Ashley's birthday celebration to surprise him since she knew he would attend but there was an emergency that she needed to attend to, so she waited a month more.After calling him severally, she found out that he had blocked her number and all her social media accounts."Yes you are his childhood friend, he wouldn't dare to do a thing like that, he must have made a mistake. You should just wait patiently, I'm sure it was an honest mistake." Kate placed her hands on Lisa's shoulders, her to
Abigail's POV***"Who is she?" I thought to myself as I saw a blonde-haired woman in the living room, she didn't seem to notice me, maybe it was because she was so engrossed in her phone.The growl of my empty stomach jolted me back to reality, the hunger pangs reminding me of the reason why I was here. I wanted to prepare my own snack rather than impose on the kitchen staffs. They were already working hard, and I did not want to add to their burden. "Maybe she is a guest," I said to myself and decided to go straight to the kitchen, Henry warned me not to speak to any strangers that I found in his home unless he told me to.And she was a stranger so I turned my back on the stranger and walked away, my footsteps echoing in the marble-floored hallway."Stop right there! Didn't you notice my presence?" The woman asked, her voice a bit harsh.I turned back to look at her, noticing her hazel eyes and incredibly large breasts that didn't seem to complement her frail body figure.My eyebr
Abigail's POV***"Oh Henry, look what she did to me." Sobbing uncontrollably, she collapsed to the floor, clutching her cheeks in anguish.My eyes darted between Henry and the strange blonde-haired witch, I wondered what she was up to.A moment ago, she had been ready to strike me with all her might, her rage boiling over like a simmering pot. Now, she lay on the floor in a heap, crying as if her heart had been broken. The tables had turned, and I was left wondering what had caused such a drastic shift. "I never laid a finger on you. Stop putting on this act and get off the floor. You're only making yourself look foolish by lying so blatantly!" I spat out the words, praying that Henry would see through her charade. Her sobs escalated to a deafening pitch, and she looked at Henry with tear-filled eyes, like a lost puppy pleading for rescue. "It's unbelievable what this ridiculous woman did to me. I was only trying to show her some affection, to place a gentle hand on her shoulder.
Third POV***"Auntie!" Lisa cried out, her voice breaking as she burst through the front door. Tears streamed down her face, leaving wet trails on her cheeks. Kate's footsteps echoed on the floor as she descended the grand staircase. She was wearing a face mask, her skin glistening with a layer of cream. As she reached the bottom of the stairs, she saw Lisa standing there, her face flushed with anger. A bruise bloomed on her cheek, like a dark purple flower. "Why are you shouting like a mad woman? Didn't I teach you to learn some manners when speaking to me?" Kate said with gritted teeth, annoyed at Lisa for ruining her skincare routine."I'm sorry, Aunt Kate," Lisa said, her voice shaking. "You don't understand what that woman has done to me." She bit her lip, hard enough to draw blood, tears welled up in her eyes, threatening to spill over.Her forehead was covered in scratches, and her clothes were ripped to shreds. She looked like she had been through a battle, and it showed in
Third POVThe next morning.At Brundeen's group.***"Are you all deaf or just ignoring me?" Kate snapped, her voice sharp with irritation. "Where is Henry? I want to speak to him, right now." She turned to the workers in front of her."Good morning, Mrs. Brundeen," Elena, who heard the noise from her office came out to see Kate yelling at the workers.For a moment, Elena could only gape in astonishment at the scene before her. She forced herself to regain her composure, straightening her posture and smoothing her skirt.She approached Kate and bowed slightly, a gesture of respect. Kate was, after all, the aunt of her employer. Elena knew that it was important to show her respect and courtesy to the first daughter of the Brundeen family.The Brundeen's were pretty popular and reputable people in the society, it would be a shame to not accord them some form of respect."Hold your greetings, Elena, I'm not here to exchange pleasantries with anyone. Where is my nephew?" Kate shunned her w
