It had been two weeks since Mariana had confided in me, and a week since Jonathan stunned me to the core. The anger that had rushed through my veins after he informed me Scarlet was his date, and the way my heart had clenched after I discovered he was also counting the months.

Those feelings were new to me when it came to Jonathan and I hated it.

The next day a picture of Scarlet's brother surfaced through the papers and media, and my eyes grew wide when many of the headlines addressed him as, ‘Fraudulent CEO’ , ‘Criminal made CEO’ and many others which highlighted him as nothing but a criminal.

I overheard Jonathan talking about it with Tristan in utter shock as Tristan filled him in on everything.

    IRIS'S POV:THAT SAME NIGHT:“I'm setting you free….Free from me.” Those words echoed in my head repeatedly, as I watched him walk away and I blinked repeatedly, keeping my eyes fixated on the divorce papers. The entire table was pin-drop silent even after over a minute and I didn't even care what anyone thought at the moment because I was hurting badly. So in my pain, I picked up the ring, divorce papers and pen Mr Barley had handed me.“Iris…Honey…Girl.” I could hear both my mother, Mrs Knight and Mariana call out, and I was surprised my father had not reacted.Had Jonathan told them about his decision? Were they all aware of his decision and none of them tried to tell me? I thought to myself as I adjusted my face following behind Jonathan, as he walked away with his hands in his pocket.He had arrived a distance away from our dinner and I called out, “Jonathan!”But he continued strolling away taking each step at a time, and I followed his footstep on the wet grass calling out his

After everything that happened last night, we returned into the room and showered one after another, though I had teased her on how I had seen every inch of her body in the past and I had tasted every part but she had blushed and argued teasingly, stating that it was a long time ago and her body was more mature, and I'd pass out if I ever see it and she can't risk that. She was just so playful and it reminded me of that drunk night at the bar. So I was truly getting MY IRIS back? It felt like a dream come true.I had slept snuggled into her chest last night taking in her sweet vanilla scent, holding onto her soft skin and she had wrap

She brought out a huge birthday gift, obviously done by the twins and she smiled.“Read it out…” They ushered and I could see her already tearing up.“Dear Mummy, A year ago we had no idea who our father was and now not only did you give us a chance to know our father but to also become a family.

Hell, I thought I was just getting fat.” She was about to continue explaining when Carl instantly latched his lips on hers and kissed her passionately and we all clapped and walked towards them to congratulate her.“How was your reaction to finding out you were pregnant?” Jonathan whispered in my ears as we waited to hug her, and I laughed glancing at Mariana remembering my reaction.“You do

You know I have always hated those two kids since I laid my eyes on them and it was going to be easier this way. Getting rid of them as well as having Iris crying her eyes out.

To make matters worse, some medical personnels came out rolling a covered body out but stopped when they saw us. I could hear a sniffle coming from someone which I would guess to be Sophie, she hated situations like this.“I'm so sorry.” I coughed out and he smiled tightly.“I totally understand and I'm sorry for all the trauma and pain I caused you in the past, and what Gabriel is doing to you and your family. You still hit as hard as before I see. “ He joked trying to lighten up the mood as he adjusted his suit, and there was a cut on his lip.“Thank you for the suit and for this hit.

I remained silent and to myself wiping away my tears, ignoring everyone's word of comfort and encouragement, just thinking long and hard of what had possibly gone wrong. As the twins were rushed in about thirty minutes ago, we all overheard the doctors and paramedic suggest that they were most likely poisoned and Jason's condition was more critical than Jamie.From where? By who? When? “I should have been more cautious and careful. If anything happens to them, I will never be able to forgive myself.” I thought outloud and placed my head in my hand, trying my best not to break down into tears and I could feel Jonathan's muscular arm instantly pulling me.“It's not your fault, Iris. They are going to be fine.” Mariana and Sophie said in unison, just like the twins and I imagined never getting to hear

Even with little to no make up.“It's all you, love. You are so talented, passionate and amazing, it's only right you get your flowers and deal with whoever attempts to tarnish your image.” She spoke sweetly and I held onto her waist firmly, unable to wipe the smile on my face.The switch in people's words and reactions to me was quite amusing. My assistant had read what was being said now and I was just glad, the restaurant would continue receiving customers as this also affected the sales of the restaurant. “I love you so much, with everything in me!” I told her with absolute sincerity, and she cupped my cheek, pressing her lips on mine and kissing me softly.“I love you too, and the kids and I are so proud of you.” She

Let's begin….” The announcer stated, and began cutting down along with every other person in the audience as well as the kids who were just so energetic from all that sugar intake.“3….2….1…” And they began, grabbing their utensils and everything needed.The hall was not so large, it had a capacity of two thousand people because as soon as the tickets were out they were instantly sold out. Many referred to the competition as the ‘greatest battle of the sexiest chefs.’ And what was better than watching it in person…The hall was dimly lit, and the spotlights were on the contestants who had their eyes facing to the audience and the judges who also watched how they had prepared it. I wasn't even as tense as I should be, because one of the judges was present at the revealing of this new meal and he had been one who gave Jonathan thumbs up.But I feared whoever was behind bribing Chef Ryan could also

Chefs who have been in love could probably understand what I'm talking about. Chef Ryan who knows if he has or would ever experience the love Jonathan and I share, what if he truly has, won't it be great if he gathered with us by tomorrow night with it being publicly streamed, in order for the whole world to see the same passion and ease in his eyes as he cooks.
