Joseph's POV:

Seeing Amaka again, after four years of ending my relationship with her, made my blood boil hot.

I had tried so hard to forget her, but it was the hardest thing I did. My family cannot be aware that I had an affair with a poor girl, although I took Amaka's innocence, but that didn't mean I must marry her. But nevertheless, she was the most pretty girl I had ever seen.

When she walked into my office, my heart skipped several beats, and I was gasping for air. My jaw dropped in surprise, but I swiftly composed myself when I saw the shock on her face too.

Amaka was more than shocked to see me, but I switched to the stoic side of myself, maintaining my professionalism. I had to pretend like I never knew her, but my manhood kept twitching in my boxers, longing for her wonderful touch.

"Um, have a seat," I gestured for her.

Amaka tried to ask me if I knew her, but no way was I going back. I had moved on, and my father wanted me to court a senator's daughter. Her father owns several businesses and is a great philanthropist. Her name was Nina Stanley. She was tall, pretty, and 24 years old. I lied to Amaka Richard about my age.

I was 25 years old when I met Amaka Richard. I was coming from the gym house that day when I saw her going home with her younger sister. Amaka wore an armless dress, and seeing how beautiful she was in that body-hugging red dress, I couldn't get her out of my mind.

She came from an average family and was easily gullible. When I had approached her then, I was scared she would reject me if I told her my real age, so I lied to her, just to get her to date me. I showered her with gifts, but Amaka was only thinking about marriage. She wanted me to marry her, an eighteen-year-old girl. I only wanted sex, so that my body would calm down from the level of effect that she had on me.

I had no idea that my father was planning to relocate after his last successful business deal that made him become more famous. Dad disclosed to my mother and the three of us that we wouldn't be living in Palazo town again and we had to move to the Island of the city, where he can afford more luxury and comfortable lifestyle. This had cut my relationship with Amaka short, as I would have loved to sleep with her again and again, before I relocated with my family.

Amaka was heartbroken after I had slept with her. She delayed us having sex because she said she wanted to keep her virginity until marriage. She didn't want to lose herself to just any man, and I did lie to her that I would marry her just to eat her cake.

I am a 29-year-old man now, and will be 30 in a month's time. My father handed over this company branch to me, after I proved my worth, while he continued with his new establishment on the Island. As for my younger brother, Aaron, he's 25 and had recently graduated. Although he had no interest in business and was into filming and skit-making, but my father wouldn't have that and wanted to force Aaron into managing the second company branch, but Aaron didn't care.

Well, now I am confused on what to do. Seeing that questioning look on Amaka's face? I knew that I had wronged her. I recalled she later called me with a different number after I blocked her line and tried to forget about her.

I recalled that night Amaka called me and told me she was three months pregnant. I was shocked, as I was at home with my mother in the living room. Mom had noticed the change in my demeanor and she tried to ask me what the problem was. She asked, "What's wrong, Joseph? You look so tense, like you heard bad news. What happened?"

"Nothing, Mom. Excuse me," I quickly retreated to my room on the top floor and made it clear to Amaka that we were over. That was the worst day of my life as I felt so bad to cut her off.

I did warn Amaka never to call me again, saying, "Don't ever call me again, Amaka. We had sex only once. You refused me from touching you, so how can you be conceived from that encounter?"

"But..." She began.

"No buts. I used protection, and I remember withdrawing from you when we made love again!" I stated firmly to her. "Go on and look for who else you slept with and pin your child on him, and don't call me again."

Dammit! The memory came flooding back now, and I am confused on what to do.

Should I admit that I know Amaka Richard?

Should I tell her that I'm sorry and that I hadn't forgotten about her?

I was so confused, but seeing her smiling with Simon made me jealous.

Amaka was very beautiful, and she has a cute dimple on her chubby cheeks. I couldn't look away from her, and I recalled how heavenly it tasted kissing her lovely pink lips.

"Sir, it's already 7 pm, and most of the staff has left. Aren't you going home for today?" My head security, Tyler Ivan, came into my office and spoke to me.

"That's right. I will be going back home now," I said, rising from my office chair. I shut down my laptop and packed it up to leave the company. I set it into my briefcase as I had some unfinished business to do.

My phone rang, startling me out of my trance. I picked up my phone from my office desk where I had kept it. I glanced at the caller's ID and saw it was Nina calling me.

I got engaged to Nina last month because my father was on my neck, insisting that I marry Nina, and there was nothing else that I was waiting for. We were rich, and likewise, Nina's family.

Under my father's pressure, I got engaged to Nina even though it wasn't what I wanted. Nina was a business student too. She was very professional and managing one of her father's private businesses. She was classic and not the type of lady to mess up with.

I love sex, and even after I had fallen out with Amaka and moved over to the city, I had slept with some few women that I paid to do the deed with. Nina wouldn't let me touch her, as she said, "No sex until we are married."

I respected her choice, and since my father wanted us to marry, I respect my father a lot as he came from a poor background and worked hard to achieve the height that he is today.

I couldn't say no to my father. So I complied and engaged Nina Stanley verbally without a ring.

I didn't engage Nina because I love her. I don't feel anything for her, but I do respect her and her professionalism. It gives me a sense that she will educate my children well, and she's not a loose woman.

But now that I have seen Amaka Richard again, memories that I had long buried, feelings of the past that I tried so hard to forget, came rushing back into my mind.

Even thinking about Amaka now, her smile, her looks, and the way her big brown eyes held mine, made my dick twitch, longing for her touch.

"You can leave, Tyler. I will soon leave, let me answer this call," I told Tyler, and he replied, "Okay, boss."

Tyler exited my office, and I answered my incoming call. "Hello, babe."

    Joseph's POV:"Hey, sweetheart. I came to your house today after taking my work leave. As we are planning on getting married, I told my father, Senator Patrick that I want to come and live with you and to get to know the man that I was going to marry," Nina said.My blood boiled hot as I hadn't expected Nina to show up in my house."My house?" I asked her again, like I had heard her wrongly."Yes, Joseph. Your house? I got the address from your mother. Although, I know that I told you we wouldn't be having sex until we are married. Well, there are many other things that we can do, and that includes cooking for you, accompanying you to your office to get to know more about you, and to know if we are truly compatible to get married. Besides, we are already engaged, and none of my family would be complaining. I am not supposed to be explaining all these to you," Nina said, sounding heartbroken in her tiny feminine voice, and I swallowed hard."That's fine. I will get home soon. Are you su

    Nina's POV:The previous day, I told my mother that I wanted to move into Joseph's house to live with him."Are you sure about this, Nina? Why not wait for you both to get married first, before you move in with him," My mother said. She was a pretty, light-skinned 52-year-old woman."No, Mom. I want to go and live with Joseph to get to know the man that I will be getting married to. We wouldn't have sex, just live and bond like friends first."My mother looked at me in disbelief, and she said, "Do you think that will work? Joseph is a man, and he could want sex and many things. What if you end up not liking him and find fault in him? I think it's best to wait, after you both get married, then you can find out everything about him.""No, Mom!" I refused, my arms wrapped around my chest as I pouted, standing in her presence."Mum, I already made this decision. I need to go and live with Joseph now. We still have two months until our wedding. What if he cheats on me with another woman? Jo

    Nina's POV:"Hello, Mom," I said, walking up to the dining table to sit on one of the white chairs there."Nina, how are you doing tonight? Has Joseph returned home from the office?" Mom asked, and I sighed heavily."Yes, Mom. He is back, and we are preparing to have our dinner now," I replied, and she asked me, "How did he react upon seeing you?"I took a deep breath, as I didn't want to reveal to my mother that Joseph Ericson didn't look happy on seeing me. Instead, I lied to her, "Joseph was surprised, Mom, but at the same time happy."As I said that, Tope stepped out of the kitchen and looked at me in shock. She witnessed Joseph's reaction, and she knew that I was lying to my mother, but she didn't say a word. Instead, she walked up to the dining table to serve the dinner there silently."Okay, that's nice. I will call you back tomorrow as I want to have dinner with your father now, and I don't want to keep him waiting. You should be a good girl to Joseph. Is he there with you? Let

    Joseph's POV,After my dinner with Nina ended, Tope stepped out of the kitchen and cleared the dining table while Nina and I went to the top-floor sitting room."So, Nina?" I called her name, and she looked at me."Yes, Joe," she replied in a sultry tone, and I took a deep breath."Let's sit down and discuss. I want to talk with you about our arranged marriage and your staying here," I told her, settling back into a chair while she did the same.Nina appeared nervous as she sat across from me. My sitting room on this top floor had milk-colored couches scattered around, similar to the black ones in my living room."So, I want to talk about your staying here," I began. "Honestly, I appreciate that you came here to bond with me, but I don't want us sleeping in the same bed until we are married. I am a man, and I could get tempted and touch you before our marriage, which wouldn't be right. So I want us to use separate rooms."Nina's face fell. "I don't have a problem if we share a bed toge

    Amaka's POV,I arrived home late in the evening due to traffic. My son was already fast asleep when I came into the room and saw him sleeping on the bed.I didn't see Maureen's mother in the living room, so Maureen and I went to her room for me to unwind and take a bath."Welcome, Amaka. How was work today?" Maureen asked me as I changed out of the corporate wear I had worn to the office.My mind was in turmoil. How do I even begin to explain to Maureen everything that had happened today?"Amaka?" Maureen called my name again, jolting me out of my reverie."Yes? What did you say?" I asked her as she stood there dressed in a green nightgown. She sighed and walked up to meet me."Where was your mind? I was asking you a question just now, and you seemed lost. What were you thinking about?" Maureen inquired, and I sighed deeply again."Maureen, you won't believe what I saw today. I am so confused," I told her, walking over to a chair in the room to sit down. The room had two black chairs,

    Amaka's POV As I stepped into the living room, I made my way to the dining table to join Maureen, her mother, and my son for dinner."Mom, help me climb the chair," Jason said, as he was unable to climb onto the dining chair on his own. As I helped him sit down, I took a seat beside him, lost in deep thoughts about what had happened earlier and Mrs. Ann advising me to arrest Joseph.I didn't want to arrest Joseph; at least let me confront him first and find out if he's the father of my baby or not."Amaka, what are you thinking about?" Mrs. Ann asked me just as I was lost in my ocean of wild thoughts."Nothing, Ma. Let me go help Maureen in the kitchen," I replied, rising from the chair beside my son. I made my way to the kitchen to assist Maureen in serving our dinner.In the kitchen, Maureen had finished serving all the meals in different soup bowls and had prepared fufu for us to swallow."Amaka," she began, turning to look at me just after she closed the soup pot. "I'm sorry that

    Amaka's POVThe following morning, Maureen's fiancé arrived early to pick her up, and we assisted her in carrying some of her boxes.Maureen wore a green dress before heading off to take her bath. When she stepped out of the bathroom, she was dressed in a yellow top and a black skirt. She had a born-again look that made it difficult for anyone to know she had been raised by a single mother."Thank you, Amaka," Maureen said to me once she finished applying a simple makeup of white powder and lipstick."I am going to miss you," she said as she hugged me once more. I smiled and replied, "I’m only a phone call away. Don’t worry; I’ll come over to see you today after I close from work." Chris arrived at 6:30 AM to pick her up in his car."Okay," Maureen said, turning to look at Jason as he walked into the room. He wore a white singlet, blue boxers, and black slippers. He looked at us in confusion, wondering where Maureen was going since she was supposed to prepare him for school."I am goin

    Amaka's POV:As I left the house, I hurriedly made my way to the bus stop further down the street. We lived in an estate, so I had to walk to the gate because I didn't have a car yet.Although Maureen's mother has a small car, since she was taking Jason to school, I didn't want to inconvenience her."Hello, good morning," a black car pulled up beside me. I peered inside and saw a man in a black suit sitting there. He greeted me, "Hi, I see you're in a hurry. Where are you rushing to?""Um, never mind. I have someone to pick me up," I said to the man in the car. He smiled and replied, "Alright. Do you live around here? I've seen you around and would like to get to know you better. I live down this estate road too." He said, and I frowned."Alright. But I'm in a hurry right now. Maybe some other time," I said, wanting to shoo him away. I couldn't believe a man would be chasing after me this early in the day when many passersby were rushing to their workplaces."Alright. Please, miss, her

    Amaka's POV: "Amaka, I am not asking you to forgive Joseph. But you know that he is my best friend, and I know Joseph well. These days, I think he is more affected by seeing you again, and you should give him a chance at least, a second chance to prove his worth again." Ethan kept his face focused on the road as he drove his black SUV away. I sighed, still not responding to his advice. "It's well," Ethan muttered as he drove back to the island where my rented apartment was. "Are you bothered that Joseph would want to fight with you if he is so serious about his new-found feeling for me?" I queried Ethan, and he laughed aloud. "He is already fighting me, and he hadn't hung out with me since you showed up in our lives. Honestly, I sometimes wished that I had met you before Joseph did. He doesn't deserve you, at least. Let me be honest. You are too decent for a bad boy like him. So, I cannot blame you for the decision that your heart desires." "Mmm," I was silent as I knew that

    Amaka's POV:I stood up from the couch and went to give Joseph's mother my bank account details, and they made the transfer into my account. Once I had confirmed the money, I thanked the Ericsons once more, even when it wasn't what I wanted.Joseph was smiling as if he had won my heart, but I had my reservations as I saw his two aunties looked happy."I have received the money, sir," I let Joseph's father know, and he nodded."That's fine. I want you to use that as compensation for what our son did to you. And we hope that you can always come to visit us whenever we have any family activities," Mr. Ericson said, and I nodded sadly."I will. I have to get going home now." I wanted to leave, and Joseph's mother said, "Why don't you join us for lunch before leaving?""No, Ma'am. I am not hungry. I have a running stomach, so I am always mindful of what I eat outside," I told Mrs. Hannah politely, and she smiled sadly, as she wanted to make amends for the past."It's alright. Since you do

    Amaka's POV "Can we get going, please?" Joseph asked me, and I peered at his face and replied, "Alright."I took out my phone and contacted the Uber driver, and I apologized to him. "Hello, sir. I won't be able to go with you again. As I already cancelled the trip. Can I make a refund to you?""It's alright, Madam. You don't have to worry about the payment," the Uber driver said. I marched to get into the back seat of Joseph's car.I saw Joseph smiling, but I rolled my eyes and looked away."Mommy," Jason smiled at me from the front passenger seat, as he was happy to be sitting in the front seat beside Joseph.The car was filled with Joseph's cologne, and I sat in a tight corner, trying to do some breathing exercises to distract my nose from his intoxicating scent."Can you unlock the car windows?" I asked Joseph, after seeing that the car was an automatic."Anything for you," Joseph replied with a calm voice, but I didn't bother to correct him, since he had unlocked the car windows.

    Amaka's POV:As I woke up in my room, I sighed and got out of my bed as I made preparations for my son and me to visit Joseph's mother.If it wasn't that I had made the promise that I would visit them, I would have canceled it because Jason was not feeling well.I went to have my bath in the bathroom, and as I got out, I donned a blue top and black trousers, and also a black pair of shoes. Then I moved over to the mirror to do my makeup.I saw that I had a little acne due to the stress that comes with working. I didn't apply makeup, so I made use of my tinted lip gloss and went to my son's room to check on him.Jason was still asleep on the bed, and I recalled how I had gone to Joseph's house to bring him back.Sighing, I gently went to wake my son and to assist him with his bath.His body temperature was back to normal, and he had eaten well the night before.Helping Jason to undress, I prepared a warm bath for him and took him into the bathroom to wash up.A few minutes later, Jason

She is just angry with me," I looked back at Danna and her friend and smiled."Why is she still being cold to you? I honestly do not like how she is behaving rudely. And I honestly think that you should move on and forget about her and her son," Danna said, taking me by surprise, and I laughed and looked at her."I cannot believe that you are saying this to me, Danna. Weren't you the one who was clamoring for me to marry Amaka and unite with my son? And now, you're telling me that I should forget about them?" I queried my sister, and she sighed."I was. But she is still cold to all of us and even you. So it's a waste. Anyway, meet my friend, Clara Martin. She is Jason's class teacher in school," Danna introduced me to her friend, who smiled."It's nice to meet you, Ms. Martin," I told her, and she gr

He lives down the street with his mother in this estate," I told Lady Tope with a smile, and she waved at my son, telling him, "Hello.""Good afternoon, Ma," Jason politely greeted her, and Lady Tope waved at him and asked him, "What's your name?""Jason.""It's nice to meet you, Jason," Lady Tope said, and my son shook hands with her. I smiled and asked him, "Do you want to tour the house?""Mmm," Jason smiled and nodded."Yes, Dad. Where is your own room? Do you sleep in this big house alone? It's big like Uncle Ethan's house," Jason said, and I froze."What? Did Amaka take you to Uncle Ethan's house?" I squatted to meet my son's height and asked him."Yeah.

Thank you for coming," I greeted Simon, smiling, and he said, "We are friends. So what do you expect."Simon's eyes shifted to look at Ethan, who was peering at him, and he greeted Ethan, "Good evening, sir.""Welcome," Ethan mumbled."I have to go and check on my son. You shouldn't have stressed about coming to see us," came my calm response to Simon, and he grinned."I cannot help it. I just wanted to see your lovely face," Simon teased, and Ethan scowled. "Amaka, I should get going now. Take care.""Alright," I told Ethan, and watched him walk out of my residence as he packed his car outside my house."Are you both dating?"

    Amaka's POV: "Ugh," I grimaced and rolled my eyes at Joseph's happy voice of waving goodbye to my son. As I got into the gate, I was surprised to come across Janet Moore. "Oh, good afternoon, Ms. Moore. Didn't you go to your shop today?" I asked her with a look of surprise, and she grinned. "I did. I came home to get some food. As I don't like to eat out, and the food I had was already cold," Janet said, donning a yellow top and black skirt. And I told her about taking Jason to the hospital. "Oh, I hope he is fine now?" Janet asked me with concern, and I nodded. "Yes, he is., aright. Take care," I waved goodbye to Janet as my son and I went back into my house. My mind filled with numerous thoughts on why Joseph was acting like a caring father. I swiftly waved the thought and went in. As I entered the living room, I set Jason down on the mattress and have him eat his meal. The jollof rice and fried chicken food that Joseph had bought for us, smelled so delicious, and I could fee

As he recommended that my son perform some series of tests.We had to wait for the test results to arrive. However, when we got back into the doctor's office, after returning from the lab where my son went to do some malaria test.Dr. Steven, in a white lab coat and black trousers, smiled and told me, "Mrs. Richard, your son is having only malaria, and that is a result of the mosquito bite."As Doctor Steven relayed that to me, I looked at the door that pushed open, and Joseph came in. But I didn't spare him a glance at all. What caught my attention was the female nurse smiling at Joseph. As Dr. Steven in charge asked her, "Who is he? Nurse Tina?""Oh, Doctor Steven.
