The driver stopped the car in front of an exquisite building. Jocelyn was so excited when we stepped down from the car. She happily drags me inside the building.

“Surprise!" She hollers with excitement clear in her voice.

“Joce!" a pretty fair lady beams and walks up to us.

“Hi Joce!" other ladies were also waving at her and she also waved back, they all looked busy.

It seems like Jocelyn always comes here since they all know her. Oh! this is her cousin's beauty salon so they will definitely know her… I'm sure she comes here often.

It looks like she's more reacquainted with the pretty fair lady because she's the only one that walked up to her and hugged her with a very radiant smile on her face, Jocelyn warmly accepted the hug.

“You know why we are here Nathalie, I want you to turn me into a goddess tonight because I wanna steal the party!" Jocelyn chirped, a promising grin clearly registered on her lips.

In the few days I've known Jocelyn, I discovered that she's an effervescent gi

    Jace sat in his office, his eyes gawking at the laptop in front of him but in actual sense he's not seeing anything being displayed on the screen of the laptop… his mind is far fetched from the laptop. He groaned in frustration and closed the laptop as his long slender fingers ran haphazardly through his soft silky black hair.Staring out through the large glass window in his office, he noticed that the sky is slowly turning dark and the night slowly drawing forward making the weather cool and mild.Jace thought that if he stuck himself up with work, he would be able to forget what has occupied his mind all day and refuse to leave.His secretary is even surprised to see him work from morning till this moment without taking a break. She noticed he's not working out of duty but he's trying to keep himself busy for a reason. He even took some of her work which is something he has never done before.

    The beeping of his phone got him out of his thoughts. He lazily picked his phone from the table and checked the message. The message is from Juliana, she reminded him of her birthday party. He felt distressed as he touched his temple, closed his eyes and relaxed his back on his office seat which he's sitting on. He had already promised Juliana to be at her birthday party, if not… he doesn't think he has the strength to be there. His mind had been wandering through a lot since morning and it got him distressed.

    Jace was still astonished to see his wife here. How did she get to come to Juliana's party? Did Juliana invite her? But Juliana couldn't have invited her.Jace was confused, he doesn't think Juliana knows who his wife is nor his wife knows who Juliana is. One thing he found out about his wife when he did his research on her before marriage was that she wasn't exposed to social life and thus knew less or no celebrity. She walked in with a brightly tan skin girl that looked about her age. Maybe the girl is her friend and she was the one invited by Juliana and she came with his wife.He was lost staring at his stunning wife when Annabelle called his name and his eyes were able to finally blink since he set his eyes on his wife who walked into the event hall from the wide entrance.Annabelle's face was clearly clouded with jealousy with the way Jace got lost in staring at his so-called wife.She had followed his gaze and found out he's staring at a particular girl.

    I slowly but steadily flap my eyes open. My head hurts a lot and I felt like it's going to snap into two. I gently sit up from what I think it's bed but I'm yet to understand where I am or the nature of my environment.I used my two palms to hold onto my head, maybe it will help reduce the excruciating pain in my head.I close my eyes believing it will help subsidize the pain and also clear my blurry view.I stayed in that state for some while before I gently opened my eyes when I felt that the pain had gone down. When I opened my eyes, I finally found a clear view instead of a blurry view. I used this opportunity to check out my environment to know where I am…. I don't remember anything.I started from the left to scrutinize the spacious room that looks extravagant despite being partially empty. The little things in the room look delusive and no one needed to tell me that this room belongs to someone extremely rich. This isn't me and my husband's room, where am I? I think I'm not i

    I was still in a state of shock and didn't even know when my husband stood up and left the room.He wants to cook for me, is he serious? How can a man cook for a lady he doesn't love?I'm confused, I don't know what's in my husband's mind. Why do I feel that my husband has changed… thinking back in retrospect, I was convinced. He has been treating me good and the look in his eyes when looking at me has also changed… the look is filled with love and care unlike those hate looks he gave me at the early stage of our marriage, especially on our wedding night.Staring at the closed door, I breathe out before climbing down from the bed. I can't know what he feels for me if he doesn't tell me. Should I ask him?No, no. Where will I even get the courage to ask him.I walk into the bathroom to take my bath. Stepping into the immense bathroom, I realized that it's more vast than our bathroom back in the mansion.I stood on the huge mirror as I stared at my reflection. I looked paler than I was.

    “Who… who are you?" I asked in fear as I grabbed the empty flower vase lying on the nearby table. The man turned to face me and I was able to see his face. I think I've seen him somewhere. Nevertheless, I was still vigilant…. If he poses any threat, I will use my weapon on him.Seeing the stern look on my face and the way I positioned my weapon, his pupils dilated in something I couldn't comprehend before he spoke up, “Calm down ma'am, I'm Victor… your husband's driver and a friend."Hearing what he said, I was slightly convinced because his face looks familiar. I still didn't drop my weapon as my eyes were stuck on him. I want to be sure he's one of the men I saw with my husband when we travelled to London before I could relax and drop my weapon.“Constance." I heard my husband's voice. I turned to look at him. “He's my driver, so drop your weapon," he added.I bite my lips feeling a bit embarrassed. Well, I was only trying to be vigilant. I stare at the man. “I'm sorry," I mumbl

    Author's point of view:Three years later..“Mommy! Mommy!" two beautiful kids screamed as they ran towards Constance. She opened her arms to welcome the kids.“How are my sweet babies?" Constance asked with a bright smile as she pulled their cheeks making the two-year-old twins giggle. “Mommy, daddy bought me a big car," the boy among the twins excitedly said.“And he bought me a new doll!" The girl squeaked happily.“Oh! I'm so jealous of you guys, daddy bought gifts for you guys. Where's my own gift?" Constance pouted her cheeks. She looked up to see her husband who joined them in the sitting room. The poor man looks worn out, the kids must have stressed him. She only left him with the kids for four hours and he looks stressed already. They hired a nanny but she's on sick leave and will return very soon. Since Jace didn't go to work today, Constance asked him to take care of the kids while she went to spend some time with her friend Jocelyn who will get married in two weeks time.

    Author's point of view:Darren opened the door as doctor Jorge walked in. Jorge looks tense and it wasn't left unknown to Darren. Darren asked him if he's okay and he said yes.“Have you made up your mind Darren?" Jorge asked, walking ahead of Darren towards the room where Constance is, still unconscious. Darren followed him behind but didn't speak. He doesn't know why he feels that something is off. He's just having the hunch that something bad might happen.“Jorge, I hope no one follows you when coming here?" Darren asked. “Of course not, I was careful just like other days," Jorge replied. His voice was a little bit shaky, making Darren suspect something but he waved it away. He knows that nothing will go wrong. Jorge is always careful and also, Jorge can't betray him.“Darren, I asked you if you have made up your mind to take this girl to the hospital. She's slowly dying, if no good medical attention is given to her… she will die for good."Jorge was staring directly at Darren who

    Constance's point of view:I shakily turn to face the angry Darren. He's laughing but no one needs to tell me that it's a dangerous laugh. I thought I hit him hard, he should have fainted or died. I didn't know that he would rise on his feet so quickly, though blood is still oozing out from his forehead.“I told you that you can't escape from me. You are mine and only mine!"“I will never be yours Darren, never!" screamed and ran away in another direction. Maybe I will find another exist. I haven't run far before Darren caught up on me. He held my arm tightly and pushed me to himself. I tried to free myself from his grip but he wouldn't let me. The next thing I felt was a sharp pain on my cheeks. He slapped me. This time, I felt my lips were broken.“I told you that I will be good to you if you do not make me angry but you didn't listen to me. Now, I will teach you a lesson. I don't want to hurt you but you have pushed me too far."I gulped down in fear. What is he trying to do to me

    Constance's point of view:I slowly open my eyes, my head hurts a lot. I supported my head with my palms as I tried to sit up. Why does my head hurt so much? Where am I? What happened to me? I'm confused.“You are finally awake, sweetheart."What! That's Darren's voice. How is that possible? I must be dreaming. Darren is in prison. There's no way he could be talking to me right now because I'm not in the prison with him.I fearfully look to my left where his voice came from, praying so hard that I will not see Darren, that whatever I heard will just come from my head and not be a reality. I flinched greatly when my eyes fell on Darren who had a smug smile on his lips which I noticed to be broken. His face also has some fresh scars on it. He looks like someone who had been torturing. Of course, he should. He's in prison and some prison mates are psychos. If you should survive in a prison, you should be strong to defend yourself and it looks like Darren is not. But wait… why am I with

    Three months later…Constance point of view“Happy birthday baby," my husband whispers into my ear. I smile shyly as I stare at his reflection through the mirror. He kissed my ear lobe and gently trail the kiss down my neck. I shiver a bit in ecstacy. “You look so beautiful," he cooed. “I love you so much."I smile, “I love you too. Thank you for coming back to me."“I promised you that I will never leave you and I kept my promise. I will always be by your side, baby, always." He kissed my neck once again.I smiled and stood up as I faced him. I stare into his obsidian black eyes. They are so beautiful and enchanting. I never thought that I could see these beautiful eyes again. Even though I had faith that he would come back to me, I still couldn't help the fear in my heart.I wrapped my arms around his neck. My eyes are teary, I'm doing all I could not to break down in tears. I can also see the same emotion in my husband's beautiful eyes.For the past three months, I feel like not l

    Author's point of view:Jace clenched his fist when Jocelyn told him everything that had been going on in Constance's life but the only thing that made Jace smile was when Jocelyn said that Constance is pregnant.“Constance is pregnant?" His voice was full of excitement, though some anger was still lurking there.“Yes," Jocelyn replied with a teary smile. She was happy that Jace was alive. Constance was the only one that did not believe that Jace was dead and she was waiting for him to return back to her and her wish had been fulfilled. Jace was actually alive and her wish had been fulfilled.It was three days ago that Jace came to Jocelyn's house. It was a cold night. The knock came on the door and Jocelyn was the one to get the door. At first, she couldn't recognize that it was Jace that was standing on the doorway because he was covered in a black hoodie. She screamed in fear when Jace removed his hoodie cap to reveal his handsome face. Jace was fast enough to cover her mouth with

    Constance point of view:“What the hell! Darren, what are you doing!" I yelled. He has a mischievous smirk on his lips. I quickly reach for my towel but before I could cover up, Darren is already close to me and pins me on the wall making the towel fall off. I gasped and gulped down. His eyes are still running lustfully on my body before they settle on my breast.No, no, I won't let him touch me. I tried pushing him away but he wouldn't oblige. He looked up to stare at my face. I can see the lust and desire in his eyes. Oh! No, this is not good. Darren is looking like a predator trying to hunt his prey. What if I can't stop him this time? I was a fool, Why didn't I lock the bathroom? I was so weak when I entered the bathroom and needed the warm water to run through my body and thereby forgetting to lock the door.I squeaked when I felt his hand smosh my breast. “Darren! What are you doing!" I tried to push him away once again but he still wouldn't budge. Fear gripped me at the moment.

He made me tell the public that my husband left the property in my hand but I let him, Kevin, take care of my husband's business until I'm ready to take over. He, his mother and his wife are now enjoying my husband's fortune but I will make them pay one day.Darren and Kevin must think that they have won but they won't know what will hit them very soon. I have already put my plan in action. I'm pretending to love Darren and the fool is believing me. He's so obsessed with me that he didn't even know that I'm pretending to love him. He didn't think that it's suspicious for a girl that never loves him to start loving him after losing her husband whom she loves so much in his hands. He agreed about not consummating the marriage until I'm ready. I'm happy he did, this will buy me some time.I'm seated in the coffee shop with Jocelyn who is staring suspiciously at me.

He showed me a video where some men pointed a gun at Jocelyn and grandfather and I didn't know when I signed the contract without reading it, I already know what's in there. Kevin stood there with a smirk. He collected the papers, smiling satisfyingly. I have willed all my husband's properties to him. In my husband's will, it stated that I owe all his properties. So I have the right to sign off his properties to anyone.I have no choice. I can't scream it to the world. If I do, I know that Kevin and Darren will end up in prison but before the police could save Jocelyn and grandfather, their men will kill them. Though Darren and Kevin will be punished for their sins, I will lose two important people in my life. I have my plans, I will give them everything they want now but I have my plans. I will take back everything from them and then make them pay.
