My wife, my enemy! Maybe, something big is coming
“I don’t know if I said it the right way, I don’t want to hurt you or anything but I want the child, Avery, I need him.” Fredrick said, he was sombre and exhausted from the argument.He just wanted a cool everyday with his wife, like other married couple. But Avery had been fighting him all week since they had that grim morning where Alex pushed him off the cliff- he considered it an off cliff situation because he initially wanted to give in to Avery’s fears and remove the baby. But Alex pushed him off that cliff when he fought for that baby and it suddenly occurred to me how wrong he was, he actually needed him. He sacrificed his relationship with Avery for that child’s cause and he would stand by it,“I don’t want to loose out on my child because of reasons you won’t share…” “What more reason?! Think about it Fredrick, the explanation you would give to this child, “you were conceived in a time when your parents were just having sex on contract. After the contract, my dad paid my mo

“Did you ever find your birth parents, Noah?” Alex repeated, the table had suddenly fell silent, with Alex’s question hovering over them, Margaret was caught off guard by her boyfriend’s intrusion and she found it very unsettling.“No…” Noah replied indifferently.“He wasn’t even looking for them.” Margaret cut in, “Don’t ask him such things” “I can’t help it. I found something” Alex replied, he stretched out to hold Margaret’s hand,“Forgive me, I won’t intrude anymore.” “It’s not intrusion, I just don’t want you to remind him of things like that and end up ruining his mood.”“They don’t deserve him, whoever they are.”With that, Margaret jolted from the table, she grabbed Noah by the hand and pulled him up.“Let’s go to bed.” She muttered,“I can’t just leave a glass of d’Orsay untouched…besides, I want to hear about them.”“What?!” Margaret exclaimed,“I promise I won’t let it ruin my mood.” Noah pleaded.“Besides, it wouldn’t hurt to know at least one thing about them, please…

“Before I met my wife, I had no need for family. I saw no need. We are expecting a baby and I want the best for him, I want him to have everything I never had. A mother, a father, uncles,…”He didn’t even realize that his thoughts had been formed in his lips and he was spewing out exactly what he had in his head.“By Uncles, I mean you, Alex, and you Noah. We have a child to raise.” “May we never repeat the mistakes our parents made with us, with the boy that is coming to us!” Noah prayed. It was like him, it was like him to be totally crushed one minute and be completely excited the next.He was the very light of the McGregor family without the slightest idea. Noah had been the patch holding them together as a family for years and he didn’t have any idea.It suddenly occurred to her that it was okay, it was okay for him to go in search of himself- that wouldn’t stop her from being his sister, it wouldn’t stop her for spending the rest of her life making it up to her for thinking h
Last Updated : 2023-08-19My wife, my enemy! Long time, no see
A morning that should have gone quite cheerfully went sour quicker than a bowl of soup. Fredrick drove through the streets to Nei-nei’s chateau with Adrian beside him.The whole time he was venting and ranting to Noah about the morning and he was listening attentively, completely nervous about what to say.When he tagged along with his brother, he hadn’t thought far into their time together.Fredrick glanced at him and noticed his grimace, “Am I making you uncomfortable?” He asked, Noah chuckled dryly,“That’s not it. I just…” his voice trailed off, but the look on Fredrick’s face was warm and accommodating.“I just don’t want to ruin it.” He confessed.He had suddenly become nervous because he didn’t want to ruin this new relationship with somewhat of a blood relative.He also had questions, he had lots of questions, he just didn’t know if it was the right time to ask.Fredrick paused and breathed easily, relieving himself of the pent up frustrations he held inside of him.“If you

For every minute Avery spent at the Mainland, Fredrick’s apprehension grew even stronger.He kept dialing her number praying silently that she was safe.Unexpectedly, Noah bolted from the garage to the garden where Fredrick had been sitting impatiently.“Fredrick!” He exclaimed.“I got them on the phone.” “Them?” He asked, with eyes widened in relief.Noah handed the phone over to him.“Hello…” Fredrick began, crossing his fingers and eagerly expecting a familiar voice to respond.“Fredrick, I think we are being followed.”“Someone is following us!” The girls exclaimed in despair.For a moment, Fredrick’s went completely blank, he didn’t know what to do or what to say.Noah grabbed the phone from him, “Margaret, can you read the numbers on the license plate? Is the number visible enough?” Fredrick glanced at his brother, he seemed to know what he was doing.“2”“2…”I can hear you, Margaret!Just read it in one go. You might not have much time left.”“What do you mean?!” Avery excl

To be impatient was Avery’s weakness, Fredrick had only just observed.But he couldn’t deny the fact that Adrian was hiding something. He looked like it, he wasn’t giving accurate replies to any of her questions. He looked like he had been threatened not to say anything about the incident.Fredrick wished Alex was with him, he needed him.“Where is Alex?” Margaret asked, as if she had read Fredrick’s mind.“He will be here shortly, I hope.”Avery was tired of coercing her brother to say the truth, she gently went to him and said,“You must talk to the lawyer when he gets here.”“Lawyer?!” Adrian exclaimed, he looked quite startled and confused.“Why do we need a lawyer?” “Why shouldn’t we, Adrian? You went missing for a week and we only just found out this morning.” Avery yelled.“Where were you? Who took you?What did they do to you?These are questions I need answers to and you’re not yielding.” She continued.“I think you’re too hard on him, Avery.”“If he claims he left on his

“I fear Avery is in danger.” Fredrick said, his voice cracking with genuine concern.He was scared for her and his baby more than he cared about Mr Jonah Jonah’s threat to take over his company.Noah jolted from his seat and paced around the room, he was concerned for Fredrick and he wanted to help.It suddenly seemed to him that the universe had planned this meeting so he could offer assistance in the little way he could.He went from left to right, scratching his head restlessly,“Can you stop pacing around? I can’t think!” Gary riposted.“Stop yelling, I’m trying to think” Alex countered him.“Bunch of children!” Fredrick scoffed. The room fell back to its initial ambiance, quiet and still.“Avery is not in danger, you are.” Gary said, his face was covered with an expression that meant business. His gaze was towards Alex as he spoke.“What do you mean?” Alex asked.“To be honest, I didn’t know you were married until Alex told me and I’m suspecting it’s the same for anyone who hasn
Last Updated : 2023-08-23My wife, my enemy! Look out, Mr Jonah. You’re about to be swallowed!
Fredrick, Avery, Margaret and Adrian stared blankly at Alex, Noah and Gary.The lot of them had no idea what Alex and Gary were calling a “crazy idea”.The last thing they had heard from Noah was a suggestion for Fredrick to bequeath his wealth to a trusted source.“What are you talking about, Alex? I’m confused.” Fredrick said.Avery’s stomach had been growling for a while amidst the ruckus.She considered waiting until the family had figured out a way to stop Mr Jonah Jonah, but the idea of starving the fetus inside her made her uneasy. Being an expecting mother had its perks, maybe this was one of them. She was uncontrollably hungry, her grumbling stomach was increasingly becoming more of an upset, affecting her mood.Her face contorted into a frown that had Fredrick worried as he landed his gaze on her.“Avery…” he called.Avery didn’t bulge, she was staring blankly at the large bowl of food in front of them.“Avery!” Margaret softly called, shaking her from her daze.“What is it?

My wife, my enemy! Goodbyes!
The next morning in the large mansion at White Avenue was quite a whirlwind.“Can’t you stay for a bit? Say two more weeks?” Avery sighed softly.Margaret and Adrian chuckled wryly,“I don’t want to go neither” Margaret replied.“But I have to…”“My fiancé needs me” she added, extending her arms so that Avery and Adrian would see her diamond ring.Avery rolled her eyes and pouted slightly,“You can have a fiancé and still stay here… don’t leave me!” Avery cried.Her cries were so outrightly falling on deaf ears because, as Alex emerged from the hallway with bags in hand, followed by Fredrick, Margaret leaped towards him,“Hi there, my fiancé” she squealed excitedly, hanging on her husband’s arm. Avery shook her head playfully, and gestures to her husband too.“I guess it’s just us from now on...”“I know so..” Fredrick replied.“Invite us to the wedding, if you please” he added.Alex nodded agreeably,“That definitely, you won’t miss.”Turning to Adrian, he laid his free hand on his s
My wife, my enemy! Beyond time, as long as forever exists!
EIGHT WEEKS LATERThe most expensive hotel in Greenville opened its ballroom doors to a vast number of guests trooping in. “The Right Wedding of The Hughsons” Fredrick insisted on calling their second wedding that.Of course, Alex was his Best man.“I’m delighted to be ministering at my best friend’s second wedding- to the same person, don’t get me wrong…” Gary said, taking the microphone as the MC of the occasion.Avery was beautifully dressed in the wedding gown Nei-Nei had gifted her, but this time, it was adorned with tiny diamonds, making her glow in the spotlight. Her blonde hair was straightened out and tied in a bun behind her head. Soon, the keyboardist made a procession of the most popular bride song in the world; announcing the arrival of Mrs Hughson.“Here comes the bride, here comes the bride…” The rows and expensive chairs of the ballroom filled with the richest one percent of Greenville, rose in a standing ovation of the prettiest wife ever.Avery scanned the room a
My wife, my enemy! The right way
Fredrick sighed, frustration in his voice as he scolded his brother“It baffles me that the first person you went to ask for help from is someone who abandoned you years ago.” “And Aiden will be saying those same words to Adele some time in the future if you two don’t figure yourselves out.” Noah riposted with a smirk etched on his face.Margaret chimed in her voice feeble and weary,“You’re being really annoying right now, Noah.” “You should apologize for the distress you caused everyone of us here.”Tears welled up in her eyes as she whispered, “I defended you blindly, and it hurts so much…”“No, no! Don’t cry, Mag” Noah said, wrapping his arms around his sister.“I’m sorry.” He apologized, his eyes brimming with regret.Alex, indignant, removed his hands from Margaret, replacing them with his own.“I’m sorry, please don’t cry… I love you” he whispered, gently patting her back.“You didn’t defend me blindly, you defended me rightfully.” Noah continued.“I wouldn’t dare kidnap any
My wife, my enemy! You asked to see me?
“Noah!” A voice called from behind him as he stepped into the five-star restaurant. Swiftly, he pivoted his head to the direction of the voice and came face to face with face so strangely familiar. “You asked to see me…?” “Please sit down…”Noah scanned the room suspiciously before settling at the table.“Waiter!” “No! I’d rather not…” Adrian interjected,“Why? I can’t let you watch while I eat” lovely smiled awkwardly.“Fine, I’ll take a cup of coffee. Thank you” he replied.The waiter laid a cup of espresso on the table for Noah and a glass of freshly squeezed apple juice for Lovelyn.“Thank you, Meredith” she muttered to the waitress.“How long are you planning to stay in a hotel?” Noah asked, a hint of disapproval in his tone.Lovelyn grimaced uncertainly, “Why did you want to see?”“I’ll go straight to the point. I need your help.” Noah replied.Lovelyn shifted uncomfortably on her seat, unable to contain her excitement.“I never thought this day would come” she smiled warm
My wife, my enemy! Can you hate me later?
Fredrick woke up to the sound screeching chairs and creaking doors piercing loudly into his hearing. He groaned miserably and snuggled into his sheets, unable to bring himself to witness Avery’s departure, especially after his charade last night, he had regretted announcing their divorce and end of contract at the table. He had breached their contract and if Avery wanted, she could take him to court and sue him for damages- after all, the contract was to be done and resolved confidentially, in order to protect each other from prying ears.He shuddered unbelievably as last night replayed in his mind,“Why did I do that?!” “Alex hates me, I’m sure of it” he thought aloud.Suddenly, a thunderous bang sounded on his door, jolting up from the bed instantly.The thudding persisted urgently, without as much as a pause,“Don’t break down the door, I’m coming!” He thundered, hurrying towards the door. Before he could pull the door open himself, the outsider had pushed it open and let himsel
My wife, my enemy! Who took Aiden Hughson?!
Ivy turned down the volume of the soft music on her phone to hear the approaching footsteps clearly.As Ivy strained to listen, the muffled thuds grew louder, echoing through the quiet hall way.She took a quick glance at her phone’s screen which displayed the time as 1 in the morning. It struck her as rather alarming and unexpected that at this late hour, people were not only awake, but also strolling around the neighborhood.“But this is Greenville” she told herself, shrugging it off as she turned the next page of the novel she was reading.Just then, the approaching footsteps stopped in front of her door, accompanied by a knock. Panic surged through her as she held her breath, silently praying the unknown person away. The knocking persisted, this time, a bit louder than before.With trembling hands, Ivy advanced to the door, her voice quivering with anxiety as she muttered,“Please, whoever you are, go away!”“Ivy!” Adrian replied,A rush if emotions coursed through her as she he
My wife, my enemy! Too bad, we didn’t make desserts
Avery drove into the mansion that had been her home for the past one year, her heart wrenching and aching badly at the sight of the man she loved dearly drowning himself in alcohol. Fredrick had readily signed their contract termination papers two days ago.It felt surreal their contract was really over, and she had a week to leave the mansion.As she stepped out of her car, her heart sank at the sight of him sitting absentmindedly in the garden, taking no notice of the car that drove into his compound.“Hey, Avery!” Margaret squealed, startling her from the wrenching sight she was engrossed in.“Hey Mag” Avery replied, forcing a smile.“Fredrick has been like that for days” Margaret said, observing her gaze.“Is something wrong? I’m worried, even Alex is drinking.”“I… don’t know…” Avery stuttered, her voice trembling with inexplicable emotions.She was the one leaving him, but she was the one crying, she couldn’t understand herself.“Are you okay, Avery? You don’t look good either”
My wife, my enemy! The day everything changes
Avery’s phone rang persistently, dividing her attention from the crying babies she was trying to tame.Noah walked into the house, just arriving from school, sensing the chaos in the house, he hurried to the direction of the cries where he found Avery, clutching her phone to her ear.“Can you check on them, please?” She pleaded, grimacing apologetically.Noah quickly nodded, making his way to them.“Okay, Uncle Noah is back and he wants absolute silence!” Noah exclaimed, his voice a little higher than theirs. Surprisingly, as if they understood his command, they gradually quietened.“How did you do that?!” Avery gasped in relief as she re-entered the room. “They’ve been so troublesome today.” She added.Noah turned to face her, a wide grin played on his face, beaming proudly,“Of course, they’ll listen to their uncle. It’s just how it is…” he smiled.Avery nodded sheepishly, grateful for the peace in the house.“If you don’t mind, uncle Noah, can you spend some more time with them? I
My wife, my enemy! Let your heart have what it wants
Just as Alex had advised, Adrian arrived at the cafe and it was already booming. His regular customers were already served breakfast. The idea to add more food to the menu was a good one, their sales were gradually growing by the day and Adrian gave Ivy credit for it everyday.He scanned the room desperately, looking for a red head in the crowd, his heart racing as he scanned through the bustling crowd, searching from face to face for Ivy.Amidst the chaos, he finally spotted her. She was standing near the bar, her red hair sprawled over her back as she drifted seamlessly across the room, going from one table to the other to take their order.“It was a mistake…” Adrian muttered to himself.He head been practicing the same lines on the drive down here, but as soon his gaze fell on the fiery head in the distance, the tingles of her warm lips on him shook him to nervousness.“Adrian!” A voice called from behind, snapping him out of his reverie.As he turned around, his eyes met with the
