EMMA'S POV

Three days after my conversation with Rose, she was arrested. Her arrest didn’t surprise me, but her words before she was taken away kept replaying in my mind. She had insisted that Simeon and Daniel had framed her. As much as I didn’t want to believe her, the thought clung to me, refusing to leave. Since her arrest, everything around me had taken a strange turn. Simeon and Daniel began acting oddly, almost like they were trying too hard. They showered me with expensive gifts and compliments that felt excessive. It was as though they were competing for my attention and favor.

I couldn’t shake off the echo of Rose's final words to me: “They’ve placed a bet on you. Whoever wins your heart gets something big.” At first, I brushed it off as a desperate attempt to manipulate me, but the constant attention and gifts from Simeon and Daniel made me reconsider. Could there be some truth to her claim? I had no evidence, but the idea planted a seed of doubt in my mind. The more I th

  • My Unfaithful Lover   Chapter 78: DATING APP DISASTER, OFFICE EDITION

    EMMA'S POVI noticed the way Mary was looking at me, probably because of how I was staring at Jason. Her concerned gaze told me she had noticed something unusual about my reaction. “Is there any problem, ma?” she asked, her voice filled with curiosity and a hint of worry. I quickly shook my head, forcing a smile to reassure her. “Nothing,” I replied, hoping to divert her attention. To change the subject, I asked, “Are they all five?” Of course, I already knew the answer. The five candidates scheduled for the interview were waiting.“Yes, ma,” Mary confirmed with a professional tone, her expression now calm.It wasn’t every day you saw a man applying for a secretary position, and that alone would’ve been enough to surprise me. But seeing Jason— the same Jason I had met on the dating app and spent a wonderful evening with— completely left me speechless. It felt like the universe was playing a trick on me. What were the odds of him showing up here, in my office, for this job? I didn’t kn

  • My Unfaithful Lover   Chapter 79: WHEN THE ASSISTANT BECAME THE BOSS

    SIMEON'S POVThe moment Daniel and I discovered we shared a common enemy, Rose, it felt like fate had aligned our goals. She had been a thorn in both our sides for too long, interfering with our plans and making life unnecessarily complicated. It didn’t take long for us to decide we needed to eliminate her from the picture entirely.It was Daniel who suggested framing her for a crime. The idea was brilliant in its simplicity. If she were accused of something serious, something that could not be easily disproven, she’d be out of the way for good."Frame her for what?" I asked, leaning in to hear his plan.Daniel grinned, his confidence evident as he sipped his glass of wine. "I think framing her for running an illegal casino would be the best option," he said.I nodded thoughtfully but remained cautious. "There has to be evidence," I pointed out. "There must be a casino for the authorities to find when they investigate."Daniel leaned back in his chair, his grin widening. "I have a cas

  • My Unfaithful Lover   Chapter 80: HE GHOSTED ME (BUT I'M HIS BOSS)

    EMMA'S POVFor the past day, Jason hasn’t been answering my calls. At first, I tried to brush it off, convincing myself he was probably busy with work or tied up in something important. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling growing inside me. Yesterday at the office, his behavior wasn’t normal— it was strange, almost as if he was deliberately avoiding me. He barely even looked at me, let alone spoke to me like he usually does. Jason is never like that. Even when he’s stressed or under pressure, he always makes time to smile at me or share a few comforting words. Yesterday, though, was different. It was like he was trying to put some invisible wall between us, and I couldn’t understand why.The goodbye kiss he gave me by my car was the clearest sign that something was off. It wasn’t the same as usual. It wasn’t deep or passionate, and it didn’t feel like it came from the heart. Instead, it felt distant, almost like he was holding himself back. I replayed t

  • My Unfaithful Lover   Chapter 81: PANTIES AND LIES

    SIMEON'S POVI was having a wonderful time in my sitting room, surrounded by laughter and the warm glow of soft lights. The air was rich with the aroma of wine and the faint scent of expensive perfume. Two stunning ladies were with me, each captivating in her unique way. Their beauty was undeniable, their presence mesmerizing. As the evening unfolded, the sound of clinking wine glasses echoed in the room, blending harmoniously with their playful laughter.They were dressed in nothing but radiant smiles, their carefree energy filling the space. I leaned back in my chair, savoring the moment, feeling like I had the world at my feet. Everything was perfect, almost too perfect. Then, out of nowhere, a noise outside shattered the tranquility.At first, I thought it might be the wind or some distant commotion, but then I recognized the voice. It was Emma’s. My heart skipped a beat. That voice, so familiar and yet so sharp at that moment, sent a wave of panic through me. Emma couldn’t see th

  • My Unfaithful Lover   Chapter 82: WHEN LIFE GIVES YOU A BOYFRIEND AND A BABY MAMA

    EMMA'S POV Ever since I warned Simeon to stay away from Jason, things have been peaceful. Jason and I have been living in harmony, building something I thought was unshakable. Even Daniel, the one who could never let go of the past, got a clear warning from me that same night I went to Simeon’s house. It was clear I was drawing boundaries, protecting what Jason and I had, and ensuring no one meddled in our relationship. I had worked hard to secure the peace I now enjoyed, and I wasn’t about to let anyone ruin it. One thing that stood out during this time was Aunt Grace. She absolutely adored Jason, and I could see it in her every word and action. The way she spoke to him was so warm and kind, nothing like how she used to communicate with Daniel when we were still together. Jason had a charm, a way of winning people over with his charisma and gentle demeanor, and Aunt Grace was no exception. Despite her religious nature and constant mantra of, “Don’t sleep with a man you’re not marri

    EMMA'S POV“Jason is your boyfriend?” I asked, barely able to hide the shock in my voice. My heart pounded, and my hands trembled slightly as I tried to process the bombshell Hannah had just dropped. Her words hung in the air, heavy and suffocating, making it hard for me to breathe.“Yes,” Hannah replied, her voice steady and cold. She didn’t flinch or hesitate. Her lips curled into a sharp, knowing smile that sent a shiver down my spine. “And I know you’ve been sleeping with him.”Her accusation hit me like a slap to the face. I felt as if the ground beneath me had vanished. I took a shaky breath, struggling to keep my composure. Simeon’s words from a few weeks ago echoed in my head like a haunting melody. Jason isn’t who he says he is. At the time, I had brushed it off, convincing myself it was just another attempt by Simeon to meddle in my life. But now, everything seemed to fall into place, like puzzle pieces forming an ugly, unwanted picture.“So,” I began cautiously, my voice tr

    DANIEL'S POVI wasn’t happy when Simeon told me Emma had someone she was dating now. It felt like a thorn in my plans. She wasn’t supposed to move on. Emma and I had history, and deep down, I still wanted a share in Pixel Forge Studios. Losing that share of the studio was bad enough, but now, with her dating someone else, I knew there was no way she’d open her heart to me again. Not unless we made some drastic moves.“What do we do now?” I asked Simeon, my voice thick with concern.“We’ll set him up,” Simeon replied firmly, his words hanging in the air like a sinister promise. I could see the gears turning in his head as he started forming a plan. “We need to make it look bad— so bad that she has no choice but to walk away from him.”It was a solid start, but I already had a plan brewing in my mind. A better plan. Simeon’s idea would be the first step, but mine would seal the deal. I stayed quiet, letting him believe he was leading the charge for now.When his framing attempt failed a

    EMMA'S POVAfter leaving work that evening, I switched on my phone. As expected, a flood of messages from Jason came through almost immediately I switched it back on when Daniel left this morning. Just seeing his name on the screen irritated me. I wasn’t in the mood for his endless explanations, and honestly, I doubted there was anything he could say that would change how I felt. Yet, amidst the stream of his messages, another name caught my eye— Simeon.Despite the anger I felt toward him, my curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to read what he had sent. Perhaps I was hoping to see the nonsense he had sent to me. But when I opened the message, the words left me bitter and cold."I overheard you and the lady in your office this morning. I never believed Jason would do that to you. I warned you, but you never listened," it read.I smiled bitterly. The audacity of that man was absurd. He had the nerve to gloat after everything that had happened. Without giving it much thought,

They were smiling from ear to ear when they came in. Miriam came to where I was seated and folded her hand. She looked so vulnerable. “Cherry, please forgive me for all the wrongs I've done to you”. Seriously? Why is she begging now? Oh I see, maybe she thinks that I am planning to expose what I saw in the office today, but I won't. I believe one day they would be caught by the boss himself. As long as they don't make things difficult for me, I won't even spare a glance at them. “Actually, Cherry, I was the one that asked her to ask for your forgiveness because I want us to work as a team, because we achieve what we want easily if there is peace amongst us. So please forgive her”. So it's Miss Pearl that asked her to apologize to me. It's fine I will forgive her, but I won't let my guard down on her. “Alright, I have forgi

There are some top designers that would come and organize a competition for the five top people that I will pick”.“Alright”. The manager agreed with her and everyone dispersed.
