Chapter 1

Our Wedding Anniversary

Chapter One

Junia's POV

 

Dressed in splendor and grandeur, I couldn't help but keep my shoulders up high while swirling the wine glass with my fingers in style as the ladies who flocked around me, stared at me in great admiration.

 

Brenda, the wife of Blair, the CEO of the Blair group of companies who had always seen me as a competition sauntered towards me while tucking the few strands of hair that fell on her face behind her hair.

 

She gasped, her hands flying over her mouth as she approached me. Pointing to my diamond earrings, she let out a soft chuckle as she said, "Oh my, that diamond earring that you have on is really beautiful but it isn't as beautiful as mine. My husband bought this for me when he went on a trip to Saudi Arabia, I think that it cost around ten million dollars,"

 

I bit the corner of my lower lips in anger. She was someone who always wanted to be in the spotlight but tonight, I wouldn't allow her to because this was my night and not hers.

 

I lowered my head as a wry chuckle erupted from my mouth while I walked towards her, closing the space between us as I ran my fingers through her diamond necklace.

 

My lashes swept up while staring right into her eyes. "Isn't that cheap for a necklace and an earring? Sorry, to say the least, but the cost of my earrings is 40 million dollars so it isn't only about beauty but it is about the worth and cost" I smiled widely at her while her face contorted in a frown.

 

Not wanting to exchange words with her, I patted her on the shoulders and fixed my gaze back on the door.

 

Anxiety crept at the back of my neck as I fiddled with my fingers, not darting my eyes off the door.

 

Brenda who was bent on annoying me, stepped forward while standing next to me. "It is your third wedding anniversary and I don't see your husband anywhere, are you sure that everything is okay?" A lecherous glint gleamed in her eyes while a smile crept at the corner of her lips.

 

I stared daggers at her as a thick lump formed in my throat.

 

My other friends chipped in, agreeing with Brenda. "Yes you are right, we the guests are here right now and one of the reasons why we are isn't even around and it has been up to two hours now" I heard one of them say and her words made my stomach churn.

 

I turned to look at them confidently. "As you all know, my husband is the richest billionaire in the whole of New York City. He is quite a busy man and he would be here any moment from now. Before he gets back, Ethan had told me to give you guys gifts just to compensate for his latenesses."

 

I hit my hands in a bid to call for the maids and they ushered  in while holding different shopping bags and handing them to them one by one.

 

As I left where they were standing, I could hear their gasps behind me.

 

"Oh my God, she is lucky"

 

"I wish that my marriage was as perfect as hers"

 

"Her husband doesn't only care about her but he also cares about the well-being of her guests"

 

"Why didn't I meet him first?"

 

I swallowed the thick lump that formed beneath my throat because only if they knew, if only they knew what the truth was, maybe they would take back their words as fast as possible.

 

I removed my phone from my silver purse, trying to call Ethan but I got the same response that I have been getting for the past 24 hours, his number wasn't available.

 

My fingers wobbled as I held on tightly to the door while mustering the courage to press the phone to my ear.

 

"Please Ethan, let this call go through" I muttered under my breath, squeezing my eyes shut while holding on to the tiny bit of hope that he was going to appear at the door.

 

But the beep that came from my phone shattered the last bit of hope in me as tears stung the back of my eyes. He certainly couldn't have forgotten about our wedding anniversary right?

 

There was in no way that was possible.

 

However, deep down, I knew that it was possible! Maybe I shouldn't have placed high hopes in someone who has never remembered my birthday date, neither has he wished me or gotten me any present.

 

How could I expect him to have regard for our wedding anniversary but he was present at the first and second anniversaries? He has always been there so what was happening now?

 

Different thoughts raced through my mind, causing my heart to palpitate in fear. "What if something bad happened to him? I was sure that I reminded him about the wedding anniversary two days back.  Where was he?" I thought to myself as my eyes flicked open slowly.

 

Things have been going from worse to worst between me and Ethan and it felt like the chaotic event that happened on my wedding day with Ethan was about to happen again. It felt as if things were happening all over and over again.

 

That day, Ethan failed to come to the wedding but after persuasion from his grandfather, he arrived.

 

"In the end, he later arrived and now, he was going to come" I muttered, bobbing my head slowly.

 

However, after waiting for an extra hour and he wasn't there, my heart sank to my stomach and at that moment, I knew that he wasn't going to come. The fact that he forgot about this day caused my heart to shatter into pieces and the only thing I wanted was to bawl my eyes out.

 

I glanced behind me, my gaze landing on my friends who also stared back at me with eyes peaked with curiosity.

 

I wiped off my tears with the back of my hand, sniffling back my tears.  

 

Ethan had already succeeded in embarrassing me today so it was better to save myself from more embarrassment before I  make a fool out of myself.

 

I was about to walk towards them when I paused on my track as soon as I heard the footsteps that I have mastered, behind me.

 

My face lit up brightly in excitement as I swirled on the same spot and when my eyes landed on him like an anvil, my heart skipped a bit.

 

I was awash with relief and a bright smile spread across my face as I stared at him right in the eyes while he took tiny steps toward me that looked more like he was on the verge of staggering.

 

Before he could fall, I rushed towards him and attempted to help him but took me aback when he shoved my hands off him.

 

Murmurs erupted in the room, concerning that single action of him and I knew that I needed to save face.

 

I ambled towards him and that was when the realization hit me that he was drunk as he reeked of alcohol. My eyes widened in shock because there was no way that he was this drunk on our anniversary.

 

It was not the time to react so I ignored it and tried reaching my hands for him again when he grabbed me by the wrist holding my hands firmly as he stared daggers at me.

 

Gasps erupted in the room and at that moment, I wished that the ground could give up its content and take me instead.

 

With his hazel eyes blazing with intense rage,  he thundered. "I am sick of this act! I am sick of staying with you!" He yelled, releasing me by the wrist.

 

My mouth slackened in shock with my hands dangling helplessly by my side while he searched his fingers through his pocket frantically.

 

He staggered again, shoving the paper right into my hand. "This is a divorce paper, sign it because I don't need you anymore and I have never needed you"

 

His words were like daggers that pierced inside my heart, causing my heart to pound in my chest. My eyes were fixed on the papers in my hands and realization hit me that he had finally carried out his threat.

 

He had always been threatening me with the fact that he was going to divorce me one day and he finally did and to worsen it all, he presented me with this on our wedding anniversary.

 

Despite everything, I wanted to settle for the fact that he was drunk so I attempted to take him to the room when I caught sight of a kiss lipstick sign on his shirt.

 

Before I could place one and one together, my eyes almost popped out of its sockets when I saw the woman that suddenly appeared behind him.

 

It was Maddie, his ex-fiancee and the only woman that he had ever loved.

Every part of me wanted to crumble on my knees and burst out into tears but the last thing that would ever happen was me crying before the multitude of people who were waiting for every little thing to turn against me and spread rumor around.Plus I would never break down before Maddie.I sniffled in my tears, turning to look at the guests and my friends with a bright smile on my face. "Don't worry about anything please and go on with your party, he is just a little drunk" I demonstrated with my hands while they stared intently at me as if they had difficulty believing my words.One thing I knew was that they wanted something to talk about and I wasn't going to give it to them, they have always held me in high self-esteem and the last thing that would ever happen was me falling from that high place that they have placed me in.With a bright smile spread across my face, I turned to look at the musicians wh

Piece Of Shit
Junia's POVI jolted awake and annoyingly, the memories from earlier rushed through my head, causing a wince to escape my lips. The memories didn't only make my heart ache but I quickly felt a sharp pain in my head that caused me to groan.However, the same powerful scent of the perfume that has always driven me crazy wafted through my nostrils, and when I darted my eyes towards the place where the scent emanated from, my heart leaped into my throat.I couldn't believe my eyes. I knew it! There was no way that he would leave me like this, there was no way that he would want to divorce me.It must have been a nightmare, a nightmare that must never reoccur again.Tears welled in my eyes and when he came closer to me, the only wish that I had at that very moment was to pull me in a hug and bawl out my eyes. Then when he stood next to my bed, he stared down at me and reached his hands for my face, his hands brushing through the tears that streaked down my face and the only thing I wanted

Morning Star
Junia’s P.O.VAfter Four Years. "Cheers," The clinking of glasses echoed through the room as a wide smile spread across my face. Before I could take a sip of my wine, my manager, Jones, soon stopped me, grabbing the wine glass from my hands, almost spilling it on my dress. I was taken aback, looking at him perplexed. "Jones, what was that for...." Before I could complete my statement, he smiled sheepishly and stared at me with this glint that depicted that he was proud of me. "How can I make you drink that wine when I haven't wished you a Happy Birthday" Tears filled his eyes and the glint in his eyes, caused tears to well up in my eyes as well."Oh, Jones...." I stretched my arms open wide as he rushed into my hands while I wrapped my hands around him slowly. Probably, making my younger brother my manager was never a bad idea in the first place. He was the only one that stood by me and for me. "I love you so much, sister....." He cried as I nestled my face on his shoulder while

Good day turned sour
Junia's P.O.VI stood frozen, unable to articulate the flood of emotions surging within me. The fact that I could feel Nicholas enigmatic presence before me felt so surreal as my mouth was slightly agape, causing my heart to race, while I stared at him in nothing but shock.A bright smile spread across his face and I could swear that if his eyes were the sea, I would gladly drown in them. The way his sea rover blue eyes sparkled like the rarest of stars caused my heart to pound in my chest. I have sworn that I would never fall in love again but with this man clearly around me, that seemed impossible.Nicholas Hawthorne towered over me with the unwavering smile still plastered on his face and in that moment, I wished that I could run my hands through his silky hair. The way he kept his eyes on me and me alone set icy tendrils of fear to slither down my spine— a fear that was unknown no matter how much I searched the depths of my heart.Was it the fear of his beauty? The fear of me sl

Not yours anymore
Junia’s P.O.V“Take a deep breath, Junia. Just breathe” Betty said, concern laced in her voice while I clutched my heart tightly, trying to quell the pain surging inside of me but no matter what, no matter how sharp my mum’s words pierced through my heart, I wouldn't let it break me. She would never break me! Not on this day.But despite the pain that surged inside of me, there was this unexplainable anger that soon swelled in my heart. An anger that created a fiery pit in my stomach.Betty placed her hands on my shoulder, turning me to face her. “I know how you feel. I am your best friend and I regret making you pick that call and for the records, your mom sucks for saying those terrible words to you but Junia, today is your birthday, you can't just ruin it because of your mom’s archaic mentality”My mom's words repeated in my head and no matter how much I wanted to discard her words, they just lingered on, piercing my heart like a thousand prickling needles.The only thing I wanted

Not My Ex
Ethan"We would not be attending the ball, why would Nicholas Hawthorne invite our company? For what reasons?" I said, my steely gaze locked onto my cousin, Aiden who soon ducked his head before he rose to his feet."I don't know why as well. The only thing that I know is that ever since he got into the limelight, he has been seeing you as his competition. You know he can't actually do anything without him trying to beat us" Aiden said while I leaned in the chair, brushing my fingers underneath my jaw. "Aiden, I don't actually care if Nicholas sees me as his competitor or anything. The sky is wide for all the birds to fly. However, we wouldn't be giving him the publicity that he wants and in regards to that, we wouldn't be attending! Reject the invitation politely" I said while Aiden rolled his sleeves up before scratching his head. Adjusting my sunglasses, I stared intently at him while he soon pursed his lips as he took his gaze off me. In that very moment, I instantly knew that

Your Husband’s Money
Junia's P.O.V"You are so lucky Junia, everything is working out well for you and I just want you to know that I am proud of you. You know that I am always proud of you" Betty almost broke down over the phone while I paused. "Wait Betty, are you crying?" She hissed. "Why would I be crying? Anyways, have you gotten your dress for the ball party? What type of dress did you pick?""I am just going into the store now. I hope that I would pick something that I like and probably Nicholas would like it too. I plan on confessing my feelings to him at the ball tonight...." I paused, waiting for her response.Betty screamed and even though she wasn't there with me at the moment, I could feel her happiness for me. "Go girl, it is finally time that you and Nicholas be together. Enough with the anonymous letter and all that romantic nonsense! I am happy that you would be finding the happiness that you truly deserve" I smiled, fiddling with my fingers. "Yes, you know, I feel like my life is goin

Deal called off
Ethan's P. O. VI raised a brow, glaring at her menacingly. "How many times would I tell you that you can't follow me to my grandfather's birthday party" Maddie replied. "Why? Why are you doing all of this Ethan? What have I done to you to deserve all of this? Can't you just agree with me on certain things? What the hell is wrong with you Ethan!" She almost yelled at the top of her lungs while I adjusted my tie, exhaling sharply before staring daggers at her."For your information, we are before the public and if you cause any type of scandal for me by this lousy act of yours, then you wouldn't like what I would do to you. Maddie the last thing that you would want to do is to step on my toes" I attempted to walk past her but she dropped her shopping bags to the floor barricading the way with her body. "You are not leaving Ethan until you tell me why you don't want me to go with you," She screamed at the top of her lungs while a staff member rushed toward us. "I am sorry but you can
