last update Last Updated: 2024-12-15 19:25:14

Amaka's POV.

"My goodness! What happened Amaka? Where are you coming from?" Simon asked. I was sure that my face was a total mess. But I didn't want to tell him just yet.

"I am sick for today. So I have to go home," I said, making a mental note to go and pick up Jason since I am leaving for work early.

"Oh my goodness. But you just left here now in good shape and looks. How come you're looking so red? Are you sure that you're fine?" Simon asked again, and I gave a nod and replied, "Yes. I am fine. I will be back tomorrow."

I knew I wasn't going to come back here again, as I cannot stand Joseph. His pretense and lies.

I cannot be a part of him. So I signed out of my profile page on the company's laptop and shut it closed.

Simon stood watching me as I grabbed my bag and angrily left the office. I was done and I cannot be here. I had a peaceful life, not until I decided to look for a job.

My blog was paying me massively, and also, some other advertisements I did on my own before.

    Joseph's POV:After Amaka had dashed out of my office just as Aaron came in unexpected and called her by her name. I was shocked that he knew Amaka's name. Where did they meet?"Babe, what's going on here?" Nina asked, and Aaron snapped out of his trance and turned to look at her."Hi, I am Aaron, Joseph's younger brother," he stretched his hand and accepted Nina's right hand in a handshake, and she replied, "Nina. Nice to meet you.""Nice to meet you too. I heard that you both are getting married next month, so I returned home for the wedding," Aaron kept discussing with Nina, trying to shift her mind away from the conversation about Amaka and what she was doing in my office before he and Nina entered."Alright." Nina forced a fake smile and smiled at Aaron. Then she looked at me with a questioning look on her face."Babe, what was that woman doing in here again and why do you look so tense and she appeared red?" Nina didn't want to drop the topic, and I looked at her as I was still

    Joseph's POV,"I don't need a DNA test to prove if that child is mine. The baby doesn't resemble me," I told Aaron, and he laughed out loud."Must your children look like you? Anyway, I came here to congratulate you on your engagement, and now, it seems like the engagement has become ruined."I looked at Aaron's face without saying anything to him as I went back to my office seat and sat down."I have to be on my way home, bro. I called Danna and told her that I am back. She said she's at school and cannot come now to welcome me. I have to go home. Take care, bro, and try to sort the child out. Besides, when you were dating many pretty women, you ought to have been careful."I didn't reply to Aaron and watched him leave my office. My mind was filled with thoughts on how Amaka had kept the pregnancy and never told me about it.She had mentioned that her family sent her away and she had been through a lot because of me.My mother will be angry once she finds out about this. Although, I

    Joseph's POV:I gripped the steering wheel as I drove towards the estate where my family's mansion was located. It was far from where I resided, as my current place of residence was very busy, while the estate where my father's mansion was situated was much calmer.Upon arriving at the estate gate, the security men pulled open the large black gate, allowing me entry to park my car. I quickly got out of the vehicle, noting that the sun was still high, though it seemed like the sky was about to open up for heavy rain later.I walked up to the front door and rang the doorbell to announce my presence. A maid opened the door, and I entered the living room of the mansion."Good evening, Mom," I greeted, as I saw my mother seated on the couch with my younger brother, Aaron."Welcome, Joseph. What is happening? What did you do to Nina, and who is the new lady that has a child for you?" My mother immediately bombarded me with a series of questions as soon as I walked in."Mom, I don't have any

    Joseph's POV:I stood speechless, still looking at the image that graced Danna's phone."Have you seen where your Casanova lifestyle has landed you? You got the child's mother pregnant, and you expected her to kill this innocent child, just because you don't know the value of human life!" Mom taunted me with mean words, but I remained quiet."Mom, I wasn't to be blamed here. I wasn't ready for marriage then, and I explained it to Amaka.""Just stop talking, Joseph, and give me the young woman's number. You are not my son, and I don't want to see your face anymore if you don't go and apologize to that lady and bring my grandchild home.""Mom!" I looked at her in disbelief, knowing that my mother doesn't just say what she wouldn't do."You heard me correctly, Joseph. I didn't send you to impregnate the boy's mother, but he's your son, and you cannot deny it. I'm still ashamed that you wanted to kill this innocent child. Where are your manners, Joseph, and what did you gain from sleeping

I hadn't even made many preparations for him.Jason was four years old today, and many thoughts came to my mind, especially considering all I had been through to have him.When I awoke in bed, Jason was still sleeping, so I picked up my phone and checked the time.I saw it was after 4 p.m., and I was famished. I knew that if Jason woke up, he would be hungry too.Since today was his birthday, I had planned to arrange a birthday photoshoot for him, but because of my new job and the agreement I had signed to take my work seriously, I ended up not preparing anything for him. So, I got out of bed and went to the kitchen to prepare my son's birthday cake and our dinner.I thought about giving Simon a call since I had gotten pretty close to him.Due to the agreement I had signed with J.E Group, I couldn't just quit my job unless I paid 10 million.It was a cra

    Amaka's POV:Maureen arrived dressed in a blue top and black straight skirt, paired with black shoes."Happy birthday, honey!" she told Jason as she brought many gifts for him and gave him the white plastic bag."Thanks, Aunt!" Jason hugged Maureen happily, and I stood there capturing more photos of them since Maureen hugged him too."He's so adorable, Amaka," Maureen told me with a smile, and I replied in a lovely tone, "Yes. Thanks, dear."I walked to meet Maureen and hugged her, as I missed her. "We miss you, girlfriend," I said soothingly into her ear, since we were the same height."Me too, thanks," Maureen replied just as she pulled away from the hug."Come, let us cut Jason's cake and make a wish. Or should we wait for your mother to arrive?" I asked Maureen gently. Just then, another knock resonated in the living room.Maureen offered to check who was at the door as Jason and I were at the dining table where his cake was.As Maureen pulled the door open, Mrs. Ann entered the l

    Amaka's POV;Still in the living room of Aunt Ann's house, my phone rang, and I wondered who was calling me again.Seeing the unknown number, I pondered whether it was Joseph or my family calling me, so I hesitated to pick up the call."Come, Jason. Let's go into the room and sleep. It's getting late," I told my son as I moved over to the couch to join him, just after I rejected the incoming call."Why, Mom?" Jason frowned, his handsome fair face contorting into a deep scowl. He loved cartoons and was perfectly perched on the living room's black couch, not wanting to get down.He simply had no plans of going to bed early tonight."Do you want to stay here in the living room alone? I am tired, and I need to rest. Also, you have to go to school tomorrow, at least before we take a break and make preparations for Maureen's wedding," I told Jason as I approached him on the couch and sat beside him."Come now, let's go and sleep," I said, standing up and wanting to take the television remot

    Nina's POV:I arrived home the previous day and told my mother all that had happened. I hadn't even gotten the chance to go to Joseph's house to pick up my car and my box of clothes.I just went home straight, and my family wasn't happy about the news, especially after I told them that Joseph had another woman he was interested in and probably had a child."So, what do you want to do about it, Nina?" Mom asked, and I was speechless."I don't know, Mom. I cannot marry Joseph again, and I will move on," I said. My mother comforted me to stop crying, and after a while, I went back to my room to think about the whole thing.Do I like Joseph? Yes, I do. But I don't like the fact that he lies to me.I later had dinner with my family. Throughout the previous day, I waited to see if Joseph would call me, but no call came through. I eventually went to bed.Today, I awoke and decided to go to Joseph's house to pick up my car and box of clothes. We weren't going to marry, and I would certainly g

    Joseph's POVParking my car in the garage, I came out and went into the house, and Lady Tope Hilary came out of the house, surprised, and asked me, "Sir, didn't you go to work today?"I looked at her, seeing that she was dressed up, and I wondered where she was going too. Most times, I went to work and did not return until the evening when I had closed from work."I went to the office, but I am back. Where are you off to?" I asked her, and she smiled, replying, "I am going for grocery shopping and to also see my son at school.""Alright, be back on time," I told Lady Tope and moved ahead into the house. Going inside, I went to have my bath and to chill out, thinking about how to win Amaka's heart back.Amaka was wrong, and I didn't only consider apologizing to her now because of my father's threat. No, I am far more than that; only it wouldn't be nice if the rumors got to public knowledge that I lost my father's support. Many people in this area and this city as a whole respected my f

    Joseph's POVI couldn't believe that Amaka's aunt would threaten to call the police on me. She told me that Amaka was sent away by her parents because I got her pregnant and refused to take responsibility for it."What am I going to do now?" I asked myself as I drove ahead to my company. My head was messed up, and with my father's threat, I knew that I had to come up with something to make Amaka forgive me, but who do I speak to that could help me talk to her on my behalf?Well, even if it was not that my parents had insisted that I try to make up with Amaka and bring my son back home to them, I knew that I was affected by seeing Amaka again. I truly did miss her, but I was not brave enough to say it to her face.I made a turn and drove ahead to Ethan's office. I needed to see him as he was the only person that I hoped would help me win Amaka back, irrespective of the fact that he was also chasing after her.I arrived at Ethan's company, E. and G. Global. It was a big establishment, s

    **Amaka's POV** "I already told you that I do not know why Joseph was here," I said to Ethan, not wanting to tell him that Joseph wanted to request a DNA test to know if my son was truly his."That's fine. I will be leaving now for work. Take care," Ethan said before he moved back to his car and got in. I watched him start his car engine and drive off. Sighing, I went back into the house, thinking about how I should handle Joseph's situation.I went to have my bath, and after coming out, I dressed in a black shirt and a white top. I combed my long blonde hair while standing in front of the mirror, then I applied a little touch of makeup on my face.I could recall Joseph's words to Aunt Ann: "I want to marry Amaka now.""Hahaha!" I laughed out loud while looking at my reflection in the mirror."What makes Joseph think that I would want to marry him?" I asked myself, smiling at my reflection as I finished fixing my hair. I grabbed my trusty black handbag, slipped my phone into the zip,

    **Amaka's POV**The next morning, I woke up in bed and prepared Jason for school. It was Tuesday, and the weather seemed like it was going to rain. As we were nearing the end of October, I made a mental note to get a school cardigan for my son.After dressing Jason for school, I assisted him with preparing his breakfast before the school bus arrived."Goodbye, Mom," Jason waved happily at me as I watched him get on the bus. There were other kids on the bus, and I waved goodbye once he was seated in the middle and had fastened his seatbelt. The bus drove off.I smiled and went back into the house, preparing for my visit to a new house."Amaka, wow. So you finally registered Jason for the school bus," Lazy Ann said as she came into my room. She was set to leave the house for her shop. She wore a blue tailored dress and black slippers, and I replied, "Yes, ma, to relieve me of stress.""That's good. I'm already heading to my shop. Are you leaving the house today?" she asked, standing by

    Amaka's POV.After a few more minutes sitting in the living room of Ethan's home, I stood up and asked the butler, "Mr. Evan, is there a library in here?""Yes, Madam, but it's upstairs beside the master's study," he said."Oh. It's alright. I am fine," I replied, looking away from him and telling Jason to join me outside."Mr. Evan, please tell Ethan that we will be outside waiting for him once he is done," I instructed Mr. Evan, who was standing beside the dining table. The dining table had silver chairs, and it was a beautiful setting. The older man replied, "Okay, Ma'am."Jason and I walked out of the house, and he asked me, "Mom, are we going home now?""Yes, once Ethan is done with what he went upstairs to do," I told him, and he smiled. "Alright."I pulled out my phone and snapped a cool evening photo of myself and Jason against the beautiful backdrop of Ethan's home. His house is so beautiful. As I gazed at the lovely evening photos, Ethan came out of the house and asked me, "

    Amaka's POV."Wow!" Jason and I gasped as we entered the living room of Ethan's home. "Your house is so beautiful," I told him, and he grinned, stopping in the living room beside us. He said, "It's a pleasure. I just wanted you to know where I live so that you can come over to see me whenever you feel like it.""Awn. Thank you. But I am not your woman, so I cannot be free to come here any way I please," I told him, and he smiled."Would you like to request anything? Like juice or a malt drink?" he asked as I looked around the white living room again. He had a very large flat-screen television, lovely chandeliers hanging brightly above, and high curtains that I couldn't see the end of, adding to the beauty of his living room. The walls featured paintings of him and lovely flower vases around. It was a beautiful living room with inviting off-white couches."No, I am fine. Jason and I are good," I told him, not wanting to accept a drink from him. An elderly man in a white shirt and blac

    Amaka's POV."Which other man?" I asked Mrs. Ann before she left my room. She told me, "Who else? The man you have been laughing with since this morning or the day before.""Mm. Ethan," I mumbled his name, and she said, "Yes. He is outside. When I arrived, I told him that I didn’t know if you were back, but I would check and send for you.""Mmm. What does he want from me? Anyway, let me go see him. I already made jollof rice this afternoon," I told Aunt Ann, and she replied, "Okay. Let me go into my bedroom and freshen up."Aunt Ann left me just as I walked out of my room and down the corridor. Jason was still engrossed in watching his favorite cartoon on the television, thanks to the constant power supply in our home.As I walked out of the house, I was surprised to see Ethan standing beside his black car. I hadn’t noticed his cars before, but he had different types of black cars. "Hi, good evening," I greeted him first, seeing him wearing a white top and short three-quarter blue j

    Amaka's POV:"Mommy, why don’t you like my Daddy?" Jason asked me as we entered the compound that led to our apartment."I don't know. Maybe because he is not as handsome as you," I told my son, and he frowned."But he is my Daddy," he innocently replied, to which I said, "I know, but not mine. You saw my Daddy, didn't you?""Yes, we saw your daddy. When are we going to see mine?" Jason asked, and I told him, "Later. Tell me, what did your class teacher teach you today? Did she give you any assignments at all?"I tried to shift the topic, and Jason replied, "Yes. She gave me homework. But I haven't done it. It's two-letter words, so I know that simple homework."I smiled, knowing that Jason had watched a lot of educational kids' channels before he started preschool. He was highly intelligent, but I wondered where he got that intelligence from because Joseph was only obsessed with sex. As for me, I wasn't so sure about my own intelligence. I escorted my son into the apartment we share

    Amaka's POV."I don't know yet. I might, I might not, but I have thought about it, and I think the right answer is no. I am not going to get back with him," I told Simon. He replied, "Wow! I'm still surprised to hear this. Can we meet and hang out at least?""No. Well, not today. I have some things I want to handle, including making preparations for a new house that I am planning on renting; also, I have to go pick up my son from school," I told Simon, and he replied, "That's fine. I will call you later to catch up. I'm still in the office now. It's just that I missed you. Or don’t you miss me too?""Well, I do. Take care of yourself, Simon. Bye," I quickly told him and ended the call. Sighing, I resumed eating my food, conscious of the time and knowing that I had to go pick up my son from school.Once I was done eating, I prepared to leave the house. I grabbed my black bag as the time was already 3 p.m. I slipped on my black slippers and headed out for my son's school.Luckily, Etha
