Gwen.All I did was look at Henry who was also staring at me with a frown.We both have the same thoughts, ‘what the hell was this person talking about?’“What are you talking about?” I asked, after taking my gaze from Henry.“You have something that’s mine and I want it back,” he said without going into details.He wasn’t telling me what he was talking about, he should make things easy by going straight to the point.“I still don’t know what you are talking about. Who are you and what thing of yours do I possess?” I asked, getting quite angry.He should say what he wants and save our time.“My intel told me you have a daughter.” My breath seized when I heard this.“Blue eyes just like his father, soft hair, and a bright smile, she’s beautiful…” I cut in before he could go on.“What do you want?”He chuckled lightly and stayed quiet for a while before answering, “Tell me, Gwendolyn, to what extent would you go to save your child?” He asked and I frowned.“Look I don’t have time for ga
Gwen.I hated this feeling, I hated feeling down like my whole world was crumbling. I’m going to say it is, I can’t help but think of the possibility of that man being Jason’s father. If he is then there’s a ninety-nine point nine assurance that the court would grant him custody.But I don’t want that, I don’t want him to take my Jason away from me.I have come to love him so much that I can’t let him go even if this is his real family. I don’t want him to leave.“Stop crying Gwen, I will make sure nothing of such happens,” Henry coaxed as he pulled me closer. I let my head rest on his chest again, I didn’t even know I was crying until he mentioned it.“Don’t bother yourself about what he said, Jason wouldn’t choose him. He will always be with you, Jasmine, and me,” he said then placed a peck on my forehead.I close my eyes in contentment, I love it when he mentions the three of us and not just saying me. I want all of us to be a happy family.“Come on, let’s go to bed. We have a big
Ryan.It all feels like a film to me, one minute I was on the high taking the one person I love with me, and the next minute I found myself locked in a dark room with other people I now considered my cellmates.I have always known life wasn’t a bed full of roses, I know we don’t get your cake and eat it but what I know and believe is that if you want something so desperately you can at least work hard to get it.If you fall in love with someone and it’s unrequited then you should change your ways, if you were gentle before be aggressive, and vice versa, if you have an anger issue then you work on it and be as calm as a fucking saint until you get what you want.I have always believed that that has always been my logo and that's what made me who I am today. The great lawyer everyone knew and the one everyone wanted to hire.I did everything possible and impossible to get to where I am now and I never thought anything would stop me. Well that was until I met Gwen, she was like a breath
Gwen.I shouldn’t have looked at him, I shouldn’t have bothered trying to even see him. But I did and I immediately regretted it after seeing him smile at me. He shouldn’t be smiling after what he did, he shouldn’t be laughing when he has condemned the lives of so many people.While still staring and smiling at me he said, “Not guilty,”The nerves he had. The nerve of saying that he wasn’t guilty after what he did.I wanted to get up from my seat and give him a blow in his face. I wanted to wipe that smile from his face and the more he smiled, the more I wanted to hit his face so hard. And I didn’t know I was doing just that until I felt someone hold my hand, I looked down and saw Henry staring at me with a frown on his face.“Don’t do it,” he said in a low voice.I blinked and looked around to see some people staring at me like I had gone crazy, I looked up to see the bastard still staring at me.“Please sit down baby,” he said again, taking his hand from my wrist and holding my hand
Gwen.We had to stay a little longer since Mother wanted us to have dinner with them and since the kids liked it here and Henry had nothing to do I decided to stay.I left them in the living room and went outside to get some fresh air. I needed it. While inside it felt like I was suffocating and I was thinking too much so I wanted to clear my head. But the thoughts were still there, the one of Ryan, Emily, and then Jason’s mysterious father who wants him back.Sometimes I wonder why we couldn’t leave in peace, why was there an obstacle in our way….in my way. Was I born to live an unhappy life?When I want to be happy, there’s always something that comes from nowhere to take my happiness away. I couldn’t help but wonder if I was cursed.“There you are,” I quickly turned in alert but relaxed when I saw it was my father.“I have been looking for you everywhere and then decided to come check here hoping I would see you and here you are,” he said when he was near and took the seat beside m
Henry,Things have been going perfectly for us, although I wouldn't say perfectly, but it has been perfect as a family. The mysterious caller of that night has sent text messages and threats about taking Jasmine if we do not hand Jason over to him, and I'm looking into it. I've called my private investigator to look into the number. Though the process was hard, he was getting somewhere, and in no time we would know the information of who the caller was. Gwen and I have been going on a lot of dates and I have found out that I need to complete the process.I want us to be a family again, I want her to be my wife. She’s too special to let go and though I’m just finding out about this now I'm not ready to let her go.She is mine. I regret not knowing this before, I regret not seeing this sweet and caring side of her while we were still married. I have always painted her to be a clingy lady but little did I know that when she’s in love or likes someone, she does it with everything she has
Gwen.I have no idea what surprise Henry has for me but I know one thing it was going to be a big surprise.Henry thinks I wouldn’t notice but I did notice how nervous he was all week and how hard he tried to hide some files from me. And just this morning he had been zooming in and out of, always in thoughts like there was something big on his mind, and when he used the opportunity of apologizing to ask me out, I knew that was what he was thinking about all this while.I stare at the dress hanging on the wall of my room, it is too beautiful to take your eyes off it. I fell in love with it the moment it was delivered to me, Henry really went all the way to get this dress ready.“I know you love the dress but I think you looking at it for a long time would poke holes in it,” Nina sarcastically said from beside me.I glance at her through my side-eye, she’s always dramatic.“I don’t think so,” I said before taking my eyes back to the dress.It was a pure white straight dress, with diamon
Gwen.I was flabbergasted when Henry brought me to a new car he just purchased. According to him, he wanted to pick me up in something flashy and comfortable and I can not help but agree with him. This Audi Q8 is flashy and comfortable and hot….when you have a man like Henry driving you even the car becomes hot in your eyes.I didn’t bother asking him where we were going because I knew he wouldn’t tell me, the ride was mostly silent apart from Henry constantly throwing glances at me and then placing kisses on my palm.I noticed Henry wasn't taking the same route as before, and I could conclude that he was taking me to a different place. Henry was smiling throughout the drive, giving me a good feeling that wherever he was taking me, would be what I wanted.After about thirty minutes of driving, I noticed Henry approaching a building and from the structure of the building I knew it wasn’t a restaurant. I looked at the building, the lights were on which made the place look more pretty.“

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
