Amara Nicholas;

I saw the anger expression clearly imprinted on the two women's faces. Mrs. Zara didn't look pleased to see me serving Darlington, but I didn't care. I was enjoying every bit of it and waited for Mrs. Ifeoma's reaction as I knew that she was going to explode soon. Once she came back into the house and after escorting her friend away, I wished I could go outside and eavesdrop on their conversation, but seeing that they were out of sight and Darlington looked hungry, I dashed into the kitchen to dish out a bowl of water for him to wash his hands.

"Samuel, I am neither your wife nor maid, and this food, I actually serve it for myself," I said to Darlington as I finally walked out of the kitchen with the bowl of water in my hands and approached him to serve the water.

"Really? Then there's no problem with you serving another meal for yourself. I am certain that you are not the one who cooked it," Darlington said to me with a smirk, but I grimaced after seeing that handsome

    Darlington Briggs:I went to sit on the living room executive couch to wait for Amara to finish her dinner. Now that my father wasn't around, it did not occur to me that my mother and sister would show their true colors.Amara had been living with us for almost two months now, but I didn't bother to mark the date of her arrival on our calendar. I wouldn't sit back and watch my mother ruin my chances to claim my birthright from my dad.Starting allover wasn't easy, and if I lost my position at Briggs company, I would also lose face in the outside world. I had to wait for Amara to finish her meal, noticing that even Samara was beginning to act coldly towards her. I thought they were getting along after Amara sang one of Samara's songs, but they now avoided each other like sworn enemies.My phone ringing jolted me out of my thoughts, and I saw Jenna's name on the caller ID. I didn't want to answer Jenna's call, but a part of me wanted to hear what she had to say."Hello, Jenna," I greete

    Darlington Briggs;As I walked into my parlour, the lights were turned off. I also referred to my parlour as my sitting room, and I went straight to my bedroom to gather most of my personal things, knowing that my mother would still be waiting for me to step out.I did not like how my mother was worrying so much about me. I am not a kid, but my mother worries so much and fears that I might fall in love with Amara. Indeed, Amara is very beautiful and more chubby than Jenna who is slim. Not only that, Amara has a nice shape and I had seen her naked, something that my family isn't aware of.As I approached my bedroom door and knocked, I expected Amara to respond, but she didn't. I stood waiting behind the door and knocked again, yet Amara did not reply.I finally turned the doorknob to open and saw that my room was also dark. Why did Amara like switching off the lights? I frowned and moved away from the door to switch on the light.Amara was laying on the bed, but she seemed awake. She d

    Amara Nicholas;When I awoke in the bedroom, I knew that Darlington didn't sleep in this room with me. I didn't know what was wrong with him that he couldn't tell his mother that he had accepted me as his wife.I had been anticipating that he may come to me last night to consummate our marriage as he said, but I didn't see him. Darlington didn't show up, and when he did, he took some of his things and left the bedroom.I hadn't forgotten that I heard him speaking with Jenna last night. Instead of telling Jenna that his relationship with her was over, he was still speaking in a handsome, alluring voice with Jenna, much to my irritation.I had heard enough of all this. I didn't want to phone my parents, knowing they may not be happy and would likely believe that Darlington and I had gotten along. Not knowing that Darlington wasn't the type of man who sleeps around or lacks self-control.I dressed up, not even wanting to take my bath as it would delay me and I might not meet up with Esth

    Amara Nicholas.I didn't care that Darlington was in his bedroom with me as I voiced my complaint to my father. I cannot believe that he's telling me to win Darlington over, a man who is already in a committed relationship.It all became clear to me that my father knew all along that Darlington had a girlfriend he was committed to. Yet he agreed with Mr. Joshua Briggs for me to come here and seduce his son.I was totally angry and I don't care for whatever reason made my father believe he can join two heads that were not meant to be together as one.I frowned as Darlington approached me and said, "You simply don't like me to ridicule me to nothing to your father.""I thought you were going to your company before. Just leave me alone," I was annoyed and speaking with Darlington doesn't interest me either."Hmm, I already made it clear to you that once my father is back then you can leave us," Darlington said."So why did you kiss me the previous night? You also wanted to sleep with me?

    Amara Nicholas;For the first time since I lived with the Briggs family. I feel really good, so I went to have a cool, relaxing bath in the bathroom.I saw some of Darlington's clothing there and his underwear, so I put it aside and helped him wash it out. Since I was his wife, he doesn't want to let me go. It was best that I pick up doing my wifely duty until I get the chance to leave here.After washing off Darlington's boxers and pants, I dried them and went to wash mine before bathing. I tried not to think about what Darlington had done with Jenna in the past. My father was right that Darlington and Jenna didn't have any children together, and maybe if I won Darlington over, he would change and start loving me. But knowing the kind of man that Darlington was, I couldn't seduce him. He would overcome my temptation, so I didn't bother thinking about how to seduce him into falling in love with me.I finished with my bath and stepped out to dress up.After dressing up in a crisp blue

    Amara Nicholas."Wow!" I gasped, finally approaching the car and examining it."It's beautiful," I said, and Esther smiled. "Thank you. I have to head back home now. I actually took so long to arrive because of my work at the office. Do take care, dear, and if you need anything, don't forget to call me," Esther said."No, wait!" I quickly halted Esther just as she was about to enter the driver's seat of her push car."Let me drive it for a bit. It's so beautiful," I giggled as I approached Esther and took the car key from her hand."Can you drive it?" Esther asked me with a puzzled expression on her face."Sure," I replied and collected her car key. Feeling excited, I entered the driver's seat of the car and hooked the seat belt while Esther stood aside and watched me as I drove her car back and around the mansion before parking it and laughing."It's beautiful, dear. I like it. If not for the fact that we live in the countryside, I would like to own this type of car too," I said, and

    Darlington Briggs;I cannot believe Amara is requesting for me to make a public declaration at this point. I really wanted her and hadn't expected that she would agree."No, expect you post it. Now." Amara refused to sleep with me again."Why are you being so stubborn? Have you done this before, I know you cannot understand how much I want you now, but I truly desire you from the very first day I set my eyes on you. If it wasn't that I'm in a committed relationship," I said, and Amara looked dumbfounded on the bed.I was laying on the bed beside her and admiring her face, as I hover above her."Did you have a blood oath or covenant with Jenna not to cheat on her with anyone?" Amara asked, to which I replied, "No. We didn't have any oath. I just like to keep to my vow and fulfill my promise, that's why. But Jenna is not keeping to hers, nonetheless I still love her very much, and will nullify everything if you agree to sleep with me," I told Amara."Hm. Are you sure?" Amara asked with

    Darlington Briggs:After the maids left us, my mother waited for Samara to join us for dinner at the table. My mother inquired, "Darlington, how about Jenna? I hope you're calling her?""Yes, Mom. I did," I replied, looking away and staring at my meal while Samara approached and settled beside my mother."Is Amara not joining us for dinner?" Samara asked as she sat down. My mother replied before I could, "No. I had warned her not to sit here with me and have her dinners. She's not my daughter-in-law, and I only tolerated her before because your father was around. Amara isn't welcomed here, and the best we can do is to treat her badly so that she can leave.""Okay," Samara said, not looking happy. I asked her, "What's wrong, sister?""Nothing, I was only asking about her," Samara said. I knew she had some other things to say, but she didn't want to discuss it in our mother's presence."Okay, let's eat now," I replied, and my mother blessed the meals.

    Jenna's POV, The day of my wedding arrived. I dressed elegantly in a white wedding dress and accepted Collins Kingston as my husband. Collins was nice; he wore a black tux and tried to make me happy, but he wasn't Darlington. He could never be Darlington Briggs. I had to take my husband's permission to invite Darlington and his wife Amara to our wedding, but Darlington didn't want to attend. He only sent me a wedding gift: a big box full of baby clothes. After our wedding, I decided to focus on my career as a model and my husband. It was a private wedding, and it went successfully. Though I was heartbroken not seeing Darlington Briggs around. I had hoped Darlington would grace the event. But throughout the reception, I never saw him and knew that I was married to Collins now and not Darlington. I let go of the remaining feelings that I harbored for Darlington Briggs. A few days after our wedding ceremony ended, my husband and I traveled to California for our honeymoon. That was

    Amara's POV, I wasn't happy when I came to Darlington's office and saw Jenna Colton with him again. Darlington assured me that he had nothing to do with Jenna, but upon seeing them standing close, I felt they wanted to kiss each other but quickly separated the moment they saw me enter the office. Jenna also appeared sad when I saw her leaving. She didn't tell Darlington goodbye, and she kept her face downward and fled the top floor where Darlington's office was. I was relieved when I saw that, and I told Darlington that I went to get some of my baby's things and would be heading home. So, I just dropped by his company to see him. Darlington smiled as he cupped my face and told me he was through with his office work. So, we went home together. Upon getting home, I saw the news trend on the television showing the engagement video of Jenna Colton that had gone viral. I couldn't believe my eyes as it hadn't been long since I last saw Jenna in Darlington's office, shedding crocodile t

    Jenna Colton. "Huh!" My jaw dropped as I saw Collins with a golden ring, down on one knee in front of everyone, proposing to me. We stood in the hallway, not disturbing the others who had come for emergency treatment. Since it was no longer clinic hours, the hospital was less crowded than it usually was in the morning when a lot of outpatients filled the lobby and hallways. "Aww!" My eyes welled up with tears as I saw some fans pulling out their phones to record me. They awaited my response, and since I wanted to get out of the hospital ward quickly, I said yes, knowing that this was a new chapter of my life. Since Collins was ready to marry me, not minding my flaws and wanting to have me as his wife, I had to accept his ring. So I told him, "Yes. I accept." Collins slipped the engagement ring onto my left finger, and tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I hugged him heartily just as he rose. He was taller than me, and he didn't press to kiss me. We just hugged. "Congratulations

    Jenna Colton: I walked out of Darlington's office to leave the Briggs group and saw him and Amara holding hands as he hugged her to his shoulder and walked ahead with her into his office. I immediately bolted from there like a flash, not sparing another glance their way. I went back downstairs, entered my car, and drove home. My phone rang in the car, but I was in no mood to pick it up. I cried as I found my way home. Soon, I arrived at my father's compound and wanted to drive in, but I recalled my mother would be at home. I then navigated the car and drove to the hospital to see my father. I arrived at the hospital where my father was admitted. I parked my car in the parking lot, and my phone rang again. I wanted to ignore the call as my crying could have made my voice break, and I didn't want to inform my mother about it or make her aware of my broken heart. I took up my handkerchief, wiped my face, and finally got out of the car as I proceeded into the hospital to check with

    Jenna Colton, I awoke in my room to a fresh start of a new day. I decided to visit Darlington at his company to see him directly, rather than just talking over the phone as we had been trying to do. I knew that Darlington had blocked me, but I still wanted to see him. It had been a week since Darlington told me off and asked me to move on, but I didn’t want to adhere to it. Also, Lily’s brother had invited me to one of his clubs to meet with him, but I didn’t want to visit him. I desired to meet with Darlington first to know if there was still any hope of our relationship rekindling. After finishing my bath, I got out of the bathroom and dressed in a blue sleeveless dress, wanting to look pretty as I paired it with black shoes. I stepped out of my closet and went to adjust my hair in front of my room mirror. I wanted to look presentable before Darlington, so I exited the house, holding onto my car key and my black purse. So far, my father had been improving in his health, but he

    Amara's POV:I awoke in the bedroom to a brand new morning, and Darlington was preparing to leave for his office. I hadn't expected the wedding gift he bought for me the previous night. I thought he was trying to reconnect with his ex, but he proved me wrong by telling me he had blocked Jenna and didn't want to have anything to do with her again.I smiled as I observed Darlington stepping out of the bathroom and walking up to the luxurious king-sized bed to meet me.He sat on the bed, water dripping from his wet hair, and drew nearer to me. "How are you and my baby doing?""I'm fine; our baby and I are good," I replied, a cute blush on my face. Darlington smiled and said, "That's good. I'm going to the office today. You remember that your dad wants to partner with me. Although he mentioned he would like you to be present, he hasn't spoken about the date for signing the partnership deal.""Does my dad want to come and visit us?" I asked Darlington as I watched him dry off his wet mascu

    Jenna's POV:"Seriously, Jenna. You're very funny. Do you know that my brother has been your fan since forever? He really likes you and told me that you're his kind of woman. Hot and spicy," Lily teased me."That's enough of the teasing, Lily," I shouted at her. "I know you want me to move on from Darlington too, but I guess you haven't honestly been in love.""Oh, really? Tell me what love is all about," Lily inquired. I shook my head and went to pack my handbag that my younger sister, Rita, had brought from home."I don't have time to teach you about love. But I know what I want, and what I want, I shall get."Lily's eyes widened as I looked at her, and she burst out laughing once more. "Hahaha, how do you plan to win Darlington back? Tell me. Do you intend to kidnap him and force him to marry you, or do you want to harm his wife and eliminate her to have Darlington all to yourself now?"I paused packing my handbag and looked back at Lily's face."None of the suggestions. I know wha

    Jenna's POV:I was still in the hospital, awaiting discharge. Although my father's health had improved and he had been moved from the intensive care unit after waking up, he suffered from a stroke that impaired his left hand and left leg. The doctor informed us that, with time, my father would improve as the stroke didn't affect his vocal cords.I was saddened by this fact as I waited for Darlington, who had promised to show up. However, he didn't. I called his phone several times, but it was switched off.As it got late, I was free to move around my hospital ward. The doctor had treated me after I fainted, so I was no longer confined to the bed. I called Darlington again, knowing he would have closed from his office as it was already past 6 PM. However, Darlington phoned me and told me that he didn't want to have anything to do with me anymore and that he was now dedicated to his wife, Amara.I couldn't believe what Darlington was saying. I knew he was now officially married to Amara

    Darlington's POV:"What's wrong, babe?" I asked Amara as I entered our shared bedroom. She didn't reply and instead walked back to the bed to lie down. She wore a long white nightdress and laid on her side, ignoring me and not welcoming me.I frowned, looking from my wife to my briefcase in my hands and the gift I had bought for her.It crossed my mind that she was sad, thinking I went to spend precious time with Jenna when I had been working hard in my office, sitting for hours in my executive chair and focusing on some projects. I would have felt more guilty if I had actually gone to see Jenna, especially since I had switched off my phone after I told her I wouldn’t be able to meet her."Babe," I called Amara's attention as I carefully dropped my briefcase on the couch in our cozy bedroom. I walked over to the bed covered with a white mattress to meet Amara."Babe," I said, sitting on the bed beside her, but she turned to the other side to look away from me, not wanting to speak.I
