Amara Nicholas:

After I was through speaking with my mother on the call as she requested to see Bella too and she saw that I was doing fine. She smiled and ended the call, satisfied that I wasn't lying but promised to call me back.

"Big sis, I'm hungry. Can I get something to eat?" Bella asked me as she finally settled on the single couch in her room.

"I will send a maid to get you something to eat. I'm coming, let me go and inform the maid now. I'm also famished." I excused myself from the room and went to the kitchen to meet the two maids there.

They greeted me warmly while I asked them about what we had on the menu for lunch.

"Just fried rice, plantain sauce and grilled chicken for lunch," one of the two maids said, smiling bashfully at me.

"Okay. Is it ready now? Serve it, let me take it to the guest room. I have a guest around," I said to the maids who were younger women like my size. They proceeded to serve the requested meals. As they were through, Mrs. Ifeoma entered the kitch

    Darlington Briggs:I left the mansion early in my Porsche Cayenne and drove off to the new site that I wanted to get an apartment. Jenna had insisted that I get an apartment for us, since she was preparing to return to the city.Although, I did not plan to move there until Jenna returned, but I still felt the need to get the house ready.As I drove ahead to the new house, I remember how irritated I felt on seeing Bruce. I hadn't felt like that with Jenna, but when I saw how Bruce was smiling at Amara and also how she was quick to give him her contact, it still irritated me.I sighed and finally arrived at the new house. I hadn't paid for it yet, but the agent agreed to show me the houses that were up for sale, so I parked my car and exited the car to meet with the house agent.As I was about alighting from my car, I got an incoming call and, glancing at the caller's ID, I saw Jenna phoning me again."Hello, Jenna," I quickly picked up her call."Darlington, where are you now?" Jenna a

    Darlington Briggs:"Mom.." I breathed out in relief that Amara was nowhere in sight. I turned to my mother and replied, "Mom, you remember that you don't want me to get a house of my own or move out of here, except I have a child or two children, so I had to hide it from you."I moved away from the stairs to take a seat on the living room couch as I was tired, while my mother also went up to sit on one of the black couches across from me."You didn't have to tell me lies, Darlington. I do not like that," my mother complained."I'm sorry, Mom. Jenna wants me to move out from here. She fears that I will fall in love with Amara, and I think I have already fallen for her."My mother's eyes blazed red, and she looked at me and rebuked me, "Do not say that. You cannot fall in love with Amara. In short, since you have already acquired a new home, I think it will help you to keep your distance from Amara. You will move over to the new house to stay there until your father returns."I frowned.

    Darlington Briggs"Mom, you and Darlington cannot know him, and he's a record label boss," Samara said, smiling as she flashed us her engagement ring.A diamond ring.It occurred to me the day I had proposed to Jenna to marry me a few months ago, and now seeing that my sister was engaged, I'm happy for her as I had been wondering if Samara wasn't into men."Congratulations, but I do not like the fact that he's a record label boss. Won't he be cheating on you? I don't like men who work in the entertainment houses," My mother complained, while I looked at her in surprise to hear her say that she disapproved of a man who works in the entertainment house to be her son-in-law, while she wanted me to marry Jenna Colton.Although I was the one who had courted with Jenna and introduced her to my family."Mom, why would you say that?! Isn't Darlington dating Jenna for years, and you're clamoring for them to marry? Noah is different, and he loves me very much," Samara said as she looked sad, ha

    Amara Nicholas:After I saw Darlington and his family discussing a new house in the dining room, it broke my heart. I believe his lies about ending his affair with Jenna. I couldn't believe that I fell for his charm. He was different at first, when he didn't fall for me, even after seeing me naked. So I had thought he was a different man and meant his promise to stay away from Jenna, but I was only dreaming and realized that I was stupid to have believed him.When I was having my dinner with Bella in my room, and just before Bella left me, I created a facade with her that I was fine, so she wouldn't be worried about me.Bella was annoyed after she witnessed Mrs. Ifeoma's rude behavior. She told me that she wouldn't tolerate a mean mother-in-law or a man who wouldn't speak up for her and watch his family maltreat her.I sighed, not able to defend Darlington as he isn't able to confront his mother and caution her about her behavior with me. Instead, he kept on feeding all of us lies and

    Amara Nicholas:Mrs. Ifeoma's brows furrowed at me as I quickly greeted her, "Good morning, Ma.""Yes, morning. What are you doing up here? Did you sleep here last night?" She inquired as I wanted to rush downstairs."No, Ma. I only came to ask Darlington if we were going to the church today," I said, but Mrs. Ifeoma had a doubtful look on her face."Just go already and keep your distance away from my son," she said, while I frowned and went downstairs.I went to the kitchen and instructed one of the maids to prepare my tea. I prepared my tea and Bella's as the maids said to me politely that they were busy.As I was done, I went to the guest room and met Bella in the corridor as she was already dressed up in a crimson gown."Big sis, I was searching for you everywhere," she complained, and I offered an apologetic smile her way."I'm sorry, I went to prepare our tea and to know if we're going to the church. Come, let's have something to bite and drink," I said."Okay, but don't you guy

    Amara's POV:After we arrived home, Darlington said to Bella, "You can excuse us.""Okay," Bella replied, smiling at me as she alighted the car and went away."What do you want to ask me?" I asked Darlington, not smiling at him, as I knew he wanted to speak to me about Bruce again."I hope that you're aware Bruce is Jenna's elder brother. You shouldn't be communicating with him and try not to be friendly with him," Darlington said, as we were still seated in his car."You already said that before. But Bruce hasn't said anything yet to me, except for the fact that he wants to know me," I replied, pulling my side door open.Darlington gazed back at me and replied, "The same thing I am talking about. You shouldn't tell him anything about us.""There's no 'us'. I know, and you shouldn't be concerned about what I will tell Bruce, since you're still in love with his sister. Can I get down now?" I asked, not looking at Darlington's face as he was still sitting in the driver's seat."Fine," D

    Darlington's POV"Mom, Amara isn't the one who asked for Noah's card. I was there when he gave his card to her," I replied, as I saw Amara walking away.The light white gown Amara wore was almost transparent, and it didn't occur to me initially that her gown was almost visible. Not until I saw the way Noah was looking at Amara when she walked away from us. The way her buttocks were swaying and bouncing as she walked away. I desired to have Amara again on the bed with me, but then, I was surprised to see Noah ogling at her, too.It rang an alarm bell in my mind, and I thought to collect Noah's card away from Amara's hand. Blaming myself for going to call her outside, when Amara had clearly refused to see Noah. She was right that Noah would lust after her.After Noah smiled and left us, Samara wasn't happy, and I think she also saw the way her supposed fiancé was ogling after Amara."Mom, you can keep the card if you want to. But it's only business that made Noah give his card to Amara,

    Darlington's POV"Hahaha!" I laughed as I drew nearer to Amara. "I didn't lie to you then to sleep with you. You wanted me as much as I wanted you too. Do not worry, the house is for the two of us to live in, and I promise you, I won't go back to Jenna. I just want to wait for her arrival so that we can make it official that it's over between us. If I post it now, it would seem like I cheated on her, whereas she's the one cheating on me and doesn't want to marry me.""But she accepted your engagement ring, and you guys look so in love with each other," Amara said, as she finally looked at me. I approached her even more and sat with Amara on the bed."Come, sit on me," I said, but she frowned."No. Don't you feel like you're cheating on your fiancée?" Amara asked me, but I shrugged my shoulder and replied, "No. I will only feel like I'm cheating on Jenna if I'm still in love with her, but I'm no longer in love with her," I said, hugging Amara closely as I guided her to sit on me.

    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
