Henry. “What do you mean you couldn’t find anything about him?” I yelled at the man standing in front of me. “I tried searching for him but it felt like the whole thing was wiped. His name wasn’t in the data and neither has anyone with that name associated themselves with Miss Emily,” he answered. I paced up and down, rubbing my hands together. Nothing, they couldn’t find anything about this Ian and neither had anyone with this name been around Emily, so I do not know if what Emily said was true or not. “Is that all?” I asked sighing heavily. “Yes.”“You can leave,” he nodded and then turned to leave but then paused and turned back. “Is there something you need? If it’s about your payment, don’t worry I will send it to you before you get home,” I said with a slight frown. “No, boss. It isn’t about my payment, I found something while going through Miss Emily’s file and I think you might want to know about it,” he said. “What’s it?” I asked, already interested in what he was goi
Gwen. After trying to decide if I should tell Henry or not, here I am walking into Henry’s company with the evidence Ryan found and the DNA report I got from the hospital. Coming here, I didn’t believe Henry would believe what I was going to say but for the sake of the little relationship we had, I wanted to help him. He shouldn’t live with a lying bitch just because he’s in love with her, I care for him. I still do and I don’t think anything is going to change that. The receptionist let me in and I was surprised by it, I had thought Henry would tell his staff not to let me in any time I was here. But guess they do not know about our divorce yet. The secretary Lola saw me and her face immediately blossomed with a smile. “Good morning Mrs Baldwin, what can I help you with?” She asked with her warm smile. I wanted to correct her but I didn’t have the heart to do so. “Is your boss in?” I asked. She nodded and muttered a ‘a minute please’ before going to Henry’s office. My heart w
Henry. I had thought I had heard it all this morning but guess what Steve gave to me was just the icing on top and not the whole thing. Gwen had evidence and she wasn’t just saying this because she hated Emily, I knew she wasn’t. She was doing this because she wanted me to know what kind of person Emily was, and what kind of person she was hiding from me and the whole world. Gwen always has a good heart, and one thing I know is that this was true. “Look Gwen, I’m not saying this to upset you or to make you feel bad but it’s….it’s just so hard to believe. Is this child even mine?” I asked, staring at her confused. But I noticed she wasn’t looking at me but my hand that was holding hers. “Let go of my arm Henry,” she said and I quickly took my hand off hers. “Sorry,”“Believe me or not Henry but you should know this isn’t the first time Emily has been acting this way. I knew nothing about this because we weren’t together anymore, Emily broke my trust so I decided to stay away from
Emily. I paced around the room thinking of what to do. These days had been shitty for me and with Ian’s threat and his wish to see his child, I have been stressed. I didn’t have enough resources to find the child but the little I had I have to pour everything into it. I want the child found, not because I want to take him back but because I want to get free from Ian’s grasp. He was the only thing between Ian and me and I didn’t care if Ian wanted him because he wanted to punish the child or kill him. He can do whatever the fucks he likes when he gets the child. I have done enough for him and yet he still showed me how roguish and animalistic he would always be. He threatened me because I couldn’t send the money on time to him.Those boys, those walls cracks, and the words they said to me wouldn’t leave my head. I was thankful none of them touched me, I knew they wouldn’t because they wouldn’t dare disrespect Ian. To them, I was Ian’s property and no harm should come to me—I heard
Ryan. Jealousy. A word I wasn’t familiar with since I had nothing to do with feelings. This feeling often refers to thoughts or insecurities, fear or concern over a relative lack of possession or safety. I was feeling that right now and I hate it. I hate having this odd new feeling moving inside of me and it was all because of a certain red head with a hot body. I was more of a nightstand man, I hated relationships and anything that had to do with them but that changed when I met Gwen. She was everything but then my hopes got dashed when I found out she was married, she was fucking married and I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t believe the first time I wanted someone, the first time my dead heart started beating for someone and it turns out the woman was married. She was fucking married and even had a child, did that stop me from knowing more about her? No, I don’t give up easily, I always get what I want and since the first time I set my eyes on Gwen, I knew I wanted he
Gwen. I got home, and immediately I stepped inside my apartment I slumped on the ground. What I did and saw today was too much for me. Henry. I do not know if he would believe what I had said—I know he would. He would get his people to find out about this and then know I’m telling the truth. I had thought Henry knew about everything, about me and Emily being friends—best friends, if I add— and him being the one who separates us. He doesn’t know a thing and yet I wonder how he would feel to know what really went on that night, the same night we both had sex for the first time. I shook the thought off my head, I didn’t want to think about that right now. I wanted to think about Jason, he had a new family, a family that wasn’t ready to accept him. Oh, I know that very well, a mother who’s willing to leave her child in the pouring rain, leaving him to die doesn’t want him. I don’t know what I would do if Emily found out about him and then tried to get him, will I be able to let Jaso
Gwen. His lips connected with mine but he didn’t start kissing me immediately, he left his lips there without moving or doing anything. I opened my eyes and caught him staring at me. He smiled when he saw that I was no longer closing my eyes. “You are beautiful Gwen and very soon you will be mine,” he whispered against my lips, I wanted to say something but he stopped me by moving his tongue in my mouth. His tongue tangled with mine as he kissed me. It wasn’t an earth-shattering kiss or the one which was passionate. It was something more primal, something more sexual between us and we both felt it. We felt the difference in the air as we kissed. It was different from the kiss we had before but I didn’t mind. As I got lost in the kiss, I realized something; was I using Ryan for just what I would gain?I knew he liked me—at least that’s what I thought—but I’m not too sure if I like him the way he does. Ryan pulled from the kiss snapping me from my thoughts, I forced a smile so he
Henry. Should I confront her? Should I ask her why she didn’t tell me all of this? If I even asked her what was the assurance that she was going to tell me the truth?She hadn’t been telling me that truth for years now and I wonder if she would eventually open up to me. I was tired. I didn’t know what to do, this was the same lady I was ready to be with, the same lady I left my wife, the only woman that has ever loved me and maybe still do, for. And yet she wasn’t truthful. She hid something this important from me. A child. Cheating. Lying.I thought I knew her well, after all, she was the sweet girl who I met in the past. The sweet girl who was ready to do anything for me, the sweet girl who made me hate Gwen. Now that I’m thinking about it I can picture everything clearly, Emily has never been by my side. She was only with me for the money—not the money at first because she was also as rich as I was before her parents' death. She had everything and I wonder why she could do so

Epilogue. Henry. A little body jumped onto the king-size bed, waving the mattress and waking me up from the deep sleep that I had been engulfed in. The fucking hell. I need no one to tell me who it was. I snapped out of my sleep just as Gwen burrowed further beneath the comforter in her deep sleep. I tried to hold her before Nate jumped on the bed but yet again I was late. Jesus! He always do this every morning and I'm tired ot correcting him everytime. “Nate,” I called. “Papa, wake up, wake up,” Nathaniel sang jubilantly and then crawled towards me while dressed in his SpongeBob pajamas. It's his favorite pajamas. “It’s Saturday which means cake time, mommy. Wake up,” he said again but unknown to him, Gwen was too deep in his sleep to notice anyone. Crazy pregnancy brain. I swear. She wouldn't hear a thing. Also unknown to Nathaniel, he failed to notice the giant lumps of his twin under the comforter wrapped around Gwen’s body. I sighed when I caught the s
Gwen.I couldn’t believe what was happening, one time I was angry at Henry for driving me out of the room and the next I was walking down the hallway then stopped all of a sudden because of a huge pain that hit me.And then something wet ran down my thighs, I couldn’t believe I’d just peed on myself. But after another wave of painful contractions hit me again, I knew this wasn’t about me peeing on myself, my water just broke.And let’s not talk about how Henry suddenly froze after I told him about it, I mean the man wasn’t moving at all. He was just staring at me like I’d just turned into a big alien all of a sudden.“Henry!” I called harshly, squeezing his hand tightly to pull him from wherever his head was at but that didn’t work.I groaned when the contraction hit me again. Calm down Gwen, you have gone through this before.Breathe in and out, breathe in and out.Yes, that’s it, you are doing fine……Argh.“Henry, please say something baby,” I called, hitting his hand.He blinked but
Henry.We have been in Maldives for a while now and as much as I want to stay here with Gwen for a very long time, I couldn’t. We have a life back at home and I could tell Gwen was missing the kids and our families.So after staying for about a month—left to me I would stay here forever, we returned home and went back to our new life, only that I didn’t want Gwen to work.She always looks exhausted after coming back from work. She was having a tough pregnancy and I wanted to do everything for her. So even when she requested going back to work even though she wasn’t fine I had to say yes so I wouldn’t stress her out. Doctors advise.But for safety purposes, I got her secretary Alice to always keep an eye on her. I even made her stay in the same office as Gwen and made sure she called when she wasn’t fine.Gwen was strong, she was always there for me and the kids. She has a kind heart, she is different from every other woman and I never regret getting married to her.She’s my lifeline,
Gwen.One Week Later.It had been a week since Ryan died and everything had gone back together, even though he kinda spoiled my wedding, I was glad Henry and I did exchange our rings and vows before his appearance.It has been a week since we got married and I still can’t believe this fine man sleeping beside me was my husband. Again.I couldn’t get enough of him, he was too unreal to be this handsome. To me, it was a crime for someone to be this cute and handsome at the same time.I couldn’t take my eyes off him as he slept soundly beside me, it was day two of our honeymoon phase—yeah you heard that right, Henry wouldn’t let it go.He said he wanted an alone time with me in a different country and place so three days after our wedding and after Ryan’s death, we left the country for Maldives.Henry had already gotten the reservation and everything ready before coming, so it wasn’t difficult for us to settle down.I could remember how horny Henry was as soon as we entered our room, he
Gwen.“I have a question for you baby,” he started but I still didn’t look at him. He shouldn’t ask me anything when I’m still mad at him. Everything that happened today was a mess, though I have an idea about it that doesn’t mean I was ready for the drama Ryan was bringing with him.I wouldn’t lie that I wasn’t scared when he held me with that knife pointing at my neck, I was scared out of my mind that any movement would get me killed. I was scared but after seeing the reassuring look in Henry’s eyes I knew everything was going to be fine. More reason why I didn’t panic.“Tell me, apart from hearing your mother talk about Ryan, did you hear something else?” He asked and I kept quiet.When I noticed he wouldn’t stop asking until I answered I shook my head.“What if I told you that everything that happened today was planned?” He asked, dropping the bombshell.I froze after hearing that, he didn’t just say that.I couldn’t say anything, in fact, it felt like I couldn’t hear anything fro
Henry.The gunshot sounded in the room accompanied by Gwen’s scream and I watch, I watch with satisfaction how it went straight to the fucker and hit his chest. I rushed forward and held Gwen in my arms, protecting her from the bastard's blood. The loud thud of his body dropping on the ground and the heavy sound of a boot on the sand told me everything went well.I looked behind me and saw Ryan trying to catch his breath with his hand on his chest like he could stop the blood from coming out. I took my eyes off him as my men took him out.“Are you alright baby?” I asked, looking down at my wife who wasn’t moving in my arms.I pulled from the hug and stared at her, her eyes were open but she wasn’t saying anything.“Talk to me baby, are you alright?” I asked worriedly while searching her body for any injuries. I hissed when I saw a scratch on her neck, it must be from the knife.Gwen blinked and then as she had just snapped out of her thought she held my hand, staring at me with her be
Henry. “You want me right? Just me?” She asked and he smiled. No. “Now we are talking, yes I want you. You should know that for a long time now I have always wanted you even though you are already mine,” he said.I groaned as I flexed my jaw muscles. How delusional could one be to think someone who isn’t in love with him is his? He must be mad.“Right, then let them go and just take me,” she said.I blinked and looked at her in disbelief, she didn’t say what I think I just heard right?“Gwen…” I started only to get interrupted by her.“Take me instead and don’t hurt any of them,” I could feel my bliss boiling as I heard her repeat the same words.She shouldn’t agree to his terms, he was only above us because he was with a gun. I fear he would shoot if I decide to attack him and that is what I do not want. Someone might get hurt.Ryan paused, he did nothing, said nothing but only looked at Gwen with suspicious eyes.“You are being way too easy Gwen, tell me what do you have planned?
Henry.I knew he would be here, I knew he must have gotten a whiff of the wedding and where it would be held. I had everything planned to capture the bastard if he gets here but I never thought he would be this early, never thought he would come and spoil my wedding.The bastard was really getting on my nerves.I looked at Gwen who stood frozen beside me, her eyes wide open as they stared at Ryan in shock. I know what she is thinking right now, she couldn’t believe he was here, and not only that he also had a gun.The whole place was completely quiet as Ryan took slow steps inside, he had a huge grin on his face while taking in everyone’s reaction.“Good day people, I bet you are all surprised to see me here?” He asked but no one answered.I glared at him while trying to bring my phone out discreetly. I quickly typed and sent a message on it after making sure he wasn’t looking.I slipped the phone back into my phone pocket after doing that.“It’s very rude of you guys not to invite me
