Mariana wasn’t reconciled. Her grudge against Vivian was long-standing, but Liliana had stayed her hand.

“You were the one who stopped us from retaliating.”

Henry shook his head, “You still don’t see the whole picture.”

Mariana huffed at him.

Jenn asked, “I did not understand either. What happened when you were 16?”

Liliana heaved a sigh, “She could not beat me in exams. So, she decided to get ahead of me by ensuring that I would be incapacitated and unable to write exams. She is laughable. Truly!"

She sighed at the wasted potential and added, "The fact is she can’t touch me. She might not know it, but we know she can’t.”

“Mer is the heir of Jacobsen. Vivian will toe the line with Mer. Even if she doesn’t, Mer is flanked by a bodyguard all the time."

She turned to Jennifer and said, "You, my lovely Jenn, do not have that luxury. You have a younger sister who is still in college, a grandmother in a hospital which the Stones have a few shares of, parents who are working in small

  • My wife is a sassy Queen   Chapter 30 - Denied entry

    While one group was having fun in the lounge, Vivian Stone encountered another bout of humiliation. She arrived at the venue in all fan-fare, but the bouncers checking the invitation denied entry. She had not received her invitation, so she had asked Terry to be her date. However, Terry had assumed that she only needed a plus one and gave his invitation to his assistant, who also wanted to bring a date. Now they stood at the entrance in an awkward state. Vivian complained, saying she did not bring her invitation as she was accompanying Terry. She tried to pull her rank and shouted. How could a lowly guard not recognize her and stop her? “How dare you stop me? Do you know who I am? A lowly guard like you is not even worthy of washing my shoes! Get out of my way!” Terry was embarrassed. He had only seen Vivian being gentle and polite. Even in his dreams, he could not have imagined she could throw her weight around, despite being in the wrong. However, he tried his best to medi

    Terry escorted Vivian inside, who was still grumbling about those lowly people. For the first time since their acquaintance, Terry felt like he was seeing the real Vivian. He had been over the moon when she had called back to confirm she would be his date. She had declined him when he asked. Perhaps she was waiting for a better offer. She had been unapologetic when he said he would have to cancel his date. Now, he realized she only used him for his invite. No wonder she had not been bothered that she was messing up his plans. For her, they were simply people unworthy of her concern. He vowed to distance himself from her in the future. It ought to be easy since he was always the one who had been vying for her attention. After all the guests had arrived, a waiter came to inform Jonathan. The stars of the show began to tidy themselves. Henry and Mariana made quite a stir. They were both quite catchy. Only a few people in the upper class recognized Mariana as she had left for Map

  • My wife is a sassy Queen   Chapter 32 - Differing Class

    Vivian kept hearing hushed whispers about her fall from grace and Liliana’s praises. She dumped Terry as soon as she was inside. She was surprised when he had not pressed for it. But she did not dwell on it. He was not noteworthy. A while later, she saw him in a corner with another man, and an underage girl - both of them had a strong resemblance to poverty. She sneered in her heart. At least Terry knew his rightful place. Terry, on the other hand, entirely ignored Vivian. The way she had gotten rid of him validated his assessment beyond a shadow of a doubt. He also recognized Liliana as the person who had sponsored his entry into Kings High. On the other hand, James Miller, Jonathan and Henry’s best friend, recognized Mariana as the woman who had rammed into his car and pretended to be pitiful to get away with it when they were abroad. They all mingled in the crowd as Jonathan introduced Liliana to several of his partners and big-wigs. Liliana carried herself with ease. Jonat

    Vivian looked at Liliana as if she was wronged and pleaded aloud. “You already have kids. Leave Jonathan alone.” Liliana laughed out loud. “Miss Stone, you are greatly mistaken. Married women with kids can have a business of their own. It’s not a choice between kids and careers. We don’t live in the 18th century after all." She spun Vivian’s words in a much different route that she was too stunned to react. She paused for effect as she added. "Just like all the admirable ladies out here - I can see Mrs. Cadewell, who had been managing her husband’s company rather admirably.” “Miss Jessica, who got married last month, had taken the helm of her father’s company which was on the verge of bankruptcy when she was only 16. It has expanded to three cities now. She also managed to get a Doctorate on the side. All those times, she was dating her high school sweetheart, now husband, for 11 years.” “Mrs. Henley started her own company at 18 with the savings from her part-time jobs and sc

  • My wife is a sassy Queen   Chapter 34 - Opening Dance

    Jonathan led Liliana to the center of the stage as the lights dimmed and the focus light shone on them. They took the positions and bowed to each other in the standard opening as the music started. They were both born in the upper class, and they had trained in all kinds of social dancing. Thus, the chemistry was palpable. “You don’t seem to have asked me for the dance,” Liliana asked as they moved as one with the rhythm. “I am afraid you would have refused had I asked,” Jonathan answered. “Why would you think so?” Liliana chuckled. Jonathan shrugged. “It is not quite like the President of Smith Group to be unconfident.” Liliana teased. “It’s not business. I suck at pretty much everything else. I have failed and broken promises.” Jonathan answered sadly. “My mother once said, if you are capable of remorse, you are worthy of redemption.” Liliana consoled him. “I am sorry about your mother,” Jonathan said after taking a deep breath. “That’s quite alright. My mother was an ama

    Jonathan listened thoughtfully and agreed that it was most likely the case. He could see it was within Vivian's character, even though he had never paid attention to her. Liliana looked at him for a while and asked, “What’s your story?” Jonathan looked at her in surprise, “My story?” Liliana smiled, “Everyone has a story.” Jonathan thought for a while and answered, “I don’t have any story.” She looked him in the eyes and asked, “I can see the sadness and longing in your eyes. What makes you sad?” He tried to maintain his composure and not blurt out, “You!” As she spun back to his arms, he answered, “I was stupid and blind and got fooled by others. I missed what was most precious to me.” She asked, “Is that why you channeled all your energy into work?” He nodded, “There isn’t anything else to do.” She pitied him. In so many ways, he was still the 13-year-old brooding boy who seemed too sad. Too lonely! She looked away to contain her emotions, but he caught her overwhelming

    Jonathan, on the other hand, met with James. “When did you come back?” He asked his bosom friend. “Yesterday. You were too busy being the trending topic,” James mocked. “How is work over there?” Jonathan asked, ignoring his comment. “It’s settled. But I need to send someone reliable to keep an eye on things.” James answered with a frown. “Need any help?” Jonathan offered. “No need. At least not yet,” James declined. “Your date looks familiar.” Jonathan frowned, “What do you mean?” James rolled his eyes, “Just that, literally.” Jonathan looked at Liliana in the distance as he sighed, “It’s her. The girl I met at the beach when I was 13.” James was shocked, “But wasn’t that Lydia Aprice?” Jonathan shook his head. James understood. “She is really something. Their entire family worked to make the perfect lie.” Jonathan looked down at his wine glass thoughtfully without saying anything. James realized something was off and blurted. “She is married with kids.” Jonathan took a

    Liam finished his narrative and went close to Kyle.He knelt beside his half-brother and said, “Kyle, you are my brother by blood. But in my heart, you have always been my son.”“I will do anything and everything for you. Not because I feel obligated or you were a responsibility thrust onto me, or because my mother ruined your mother’s life. But because I love you from the bottom of my heart. If anything happens to you, I will lose my mind.”“What happened to previous generations is their karma and their lives. What we do defines our life and our karma.”“You are my son and will remain so until you return to P City Military as the Colonel. Until then, you mustn’t tell anyone about it.”“I never told you about your mother because I have immense respect and compassion for her. I did not want to lie to you or gloss over her story. I wanted to tell you when you are older, so you can appreciate her sacrifices.”“Nevertheless, you will always be my son and my highest priority. I love you so

    Liam took a while before he braced himself for the next part.“My mother thought my father was cheating on her with Aunty Keira.”“My father kept everything about Aunty Keira a secret because he hadn’t identified all the people on the inside who worked for him. So for her safety, he dealt with everything directly. He had created a fake ID and passport for her for an emergency. If she ran into any trouble, or if he died, then she could flee and settle down abroad.”“My mother thought he was planning to elope with her. She went after him when he had sneaked out, and she took photos. The next day, she posted all those photos in the newspaper calling Aunty Keira a bad person for flirting with a married army man and ruining a military marriage.”“Naturally, everyone found out, and the bad people captured and bullied Aunt Keira.”“The plan was almost complete. As per military protocols, my father had to prioritize the mission. My father had the last bits of information in place. So he hasti

    Liliana began when Liam stalled for time.“Kyle, your mother comes from a long line of military spies. You know what a spy is, right?”Kyle nodded.“Traditionally, only men are sent as spies because women are physically more vulnerable and comparatively more emotional. However, during your mother’s time, there was a very powerful mafia in Z city. He was extending his terror in P city. He had bribed and coerced many people at higher positions - so he would not get caught. Someone inside the Military betrayed us, and he found our spies.”Liam added, “He killed 25 of our most trained and skilled spies within a week. It left the P City Military in a very vulnerable position. My father was the Army Commander at that time. My Grandfather was in a higher position, and the mafia approached my grandfather for something. When he refused, he killed him.”“Among the 25 spies, three were from your mother’s family. Apart from them, almost 100 people from the force - Police and Military - lost their

    Liliana walked up to them and hugged them.She checked them from head to toe, much to the boy’s embarrassment. When she was satisfied that they were unharmed, she spanked them.Li looked at his mother incredulously, but she glared back at him.“How dare you run away? Didn’t you know the address of your home? If you encounter something you can’t handle, you come to me. Is that such a difficult concept to grasp?”“Look at how filthy you have become! Is this how you plan to set an example for your siblings?”Kyle hugged her and sobbed, “I am sorry, Mommy.”Li did the same, and Liliana hugged the two children close.Liliana exclaimed, “Ah! It reminds me of when we had just returned to P city. Jo - that traitor, left me for her father. I had the two of you to hug.”She led them to the ensuite bathroom and asked them to clean up. She sat them down and asked them to drink water and eat the pies she had made that afternoon.After the kids were well-fed and hydrated, she sat on the couch with

    James remained unperturbed and laughed.He added when he had calmed down.“Jacob said he kissed Mariana and realized that he was gay.”Jonathan was speechless. He hadn’t expected that twist.James ignored his friend’s expressions and slurred, “He said they were best friends and sort of dating. But the vibe between them was closer to cousins than lovers. When they kissed, he realized how much he never wanted to kiss any girl in his life ever again.”Jonathan had to stifle his laugh.‘Good for Jacob!’‘Poor Mariana lost her first kiss like that. Tch! Tch!’James continued his ramble.“Then they became even closer. Which may have been why Mariana never dated anyone.”Jonathan thought about it and added, “Makes sense! She wouldn’t have needed to look for a relationship, and others would have assumed she wasn’t available.”James continued, “Jacob once took her horse riding. She fell and had a fracture.

    Jonathan and Liliana stopped talking and embraced each other while lying quietly on the bed.Jonathan was about to drift asleep when Liliana spoke.“Do you still want to have another child?”He was stunned and sat up immediately.“What do you mean?”She turned around and asked, “Well, you never brought it up since we talked about it half a year ago.”He couldn’t understand what she was getting at. He asked, “So?”She mumbled, “I just think it is the right time, and maybe we should try. I will turn thirty soon, and it might cause complications.”He asked, “I still don’t know what you are trying to say.”She rolled her eyes and asked, “I want to know if you still want another child.
