OSCAR GRAY

I returned home elated. Tilda was finally getting the happiness she deserved and soon she will be able to recover everything that was wrongly stolen from her.

However, the main reason for my happiness was the fact that she had agreed to be my girlfriend. It may not be marriage as I wanted but it was a step in the right direction. Soon, she will come to realize just how much she loves me and marry me.

“Hey, darling,” Alicia greeted me by the door.

Draped a thin see-through nighties, and swaying her hips seductively a sultry smile playing on her lips.

“You are back quite early today. Guess what? I made your favorite French crepes pancake.”

“I am not hungry,” I replied.

“Really,” she frowned. “I spent the whole day in the kitchen making those, Oscar.”

“You don’t have to do anything for me, Alicia.” I reminded her.

I continued to the room while she followed behind me expressing her displeasure.

“I wanted it to be just like old times, honey. I already set up the roof top. We wil

  • OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW   CHAPTER 1 – CAUGHT IN THE ACT

    TILDAThe noise from downstairs signaled James’s arrival, and hurriedly, I ran down the staircase to welcome him with the great news. At last, we could have our own child, something we had both always wanted.Stepping into the living room, I froze instantly.There, sprawled across the couch, was my husband, James—naked and tangled in the arms of my half-sister, Kristie.A sharp pain tore through my chest at the gut-wrenching sight, and my vision became blurred. Slowly, hot tears spilled down my cheeks, each one burning with betrayal.But they didn’t stop; they acted like I was invisible, giggling and moaning as they carried on with their disgraceful act.It can't be James and Kristie, they were the two people closest to me. I trusted them with everything.Suddenly the air turned suffocating, and all I wanted was to get away. Surely, my imagination was playing with my head. James cannot betray me; the love we share was too strong.Moments later, I was all alone, wandering in the street

    TILDA“Miss Tilda, you are awake,” a voice said, though it sounded distant.A sharp ache pulsed in my head as I struggled to shake off the terrible nightmare. I whispered my husband’s name. “James.”The unfamiliar surrounding only deepened my distress. “Where am i?” I murmured.“It’s a miracle, you are awake, ma’am,” the voice came again, clearer this time.As my vision adjusted, I recognized the house – the same magnificent, secluded villa. And the same servant who tried to stop me from leaving the last time.“Where is James? Why am I here?” I asked. “Please... water.”“You have been unconscious for two days, Miss Tilda,” the young man said, handing me a glass. “But the doctor said you will be alright.”I took a shaky sip, my gaze darting anxiously around the room. “And what about...” I muttered, searching desperately.He continued. “Boss found you almost lifeless on the street and brought you here. You should have waited. You would have lost your life.”“The street,” I whispered. “J

    KRISTIE“Mrs. Grant, you can come for your result.” I heard the nurse call the moment I stepped into the clinic.“What result?” I mumbled. I just arrived and was yet to carry out any test.I continued in the direction of the nurse, and that was when I noticed her.Tilda!She stood and started toward the nurse when our eyes met. I shot her a spiteful glance, and she quickly lowered her gaze. She looked pathetic—clearly nothing without us.I didn’t care what she thought of me. I had waited years for this, every step carefully planned and executed. A scheme to take everything from her. She was a fool to have fallen for James so blindly.Growing up, Tilda had it all, while I was just the other child, living off her generosity. But I never wanted to live that way. I rolled my eyes. How could she have ever believed my mother and I sincerely cared for her? “I am here now, nurse,” her voice was low.“Congratulation, Mrs. Grant,” the nurse smiled. “You are three weeks pregnant. You are only e

    TILDA“Mummy, mummy, stop Dylan from chasing me!” Diamond cried as she ran into my arms.I held her close and called softly, “Dylan, don’t make your sister run around the airport. She might bump into someone. Watch over her while I take care of this.”I was exhausted. The suddenness of the trip had left me with little time to prepare. Even now, I was trying to correct an issue with Diamond’s passport so we could board the next flight to Houston."Mom, when will we return to North Carolina?" Diamond asked me. "I don't want to be away from my friends for too long," she whined playfully.Denzel pulled Diamond. “You should come and sit down, Diamond, and let mommy concentrate.”Dylan added. “We can come and visit soon. Mom would be worried if she left us behind.”“No,” Dixon spoke from his seat. “I won't let mom go anywhere without us. We have to protect her and Diamond all the time.”I smiled. My quadruplets, at barely five years old the boys have already taken on the mantle of protectio

  • OUR MUMMY'S EX-HUSBAND WANTS TO CLAIM US NOW   CHAPTER 5 - WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

    TILDAAs the uber drove us from the airport to Bellaire, my mind raced back to the events that forced me away from home five years ago. The identity of my kids’ father was still uncertain. It should be James, but the medical report contradicts that.My mind drifted. If the medical report stated otherwise, how would Kristie be pregnant for James. Or perhaps the report was wrong, perhaps I was already pregnant for James without realizing it.A tear escaped the corner of my eye.The kids were sleeping in the back, and a smile formed on the corner of my lips as I stared at them. They were nothing like him, all four of them.I have already resolved to take care of my quadruplets alone and stay far away from his life.“Mom, are you crying?” Denzel asked me.I quickly wiped off the tears. “No, Denzel. You should be sleeping. We will arrive at the apartment soon,” I lied.“You don’t need to worry about anything, mom. If anyone tries to anger you, we are here to protect you. Don’t worry, we wo

    TILDAI arrived at O. Gray Future Corporation at precisely 7 AM. As I stepped onto the gleaming marble floors of the massive complex, an overwhelming sense of accomplishment settled over me. This was it. My dream was finally within reach.By 8 AM, the interview was over, and I was directed to the CEO’s office. Oscar Gray. A name that carried weight. The most sought-after bachelor—untouchable, elusive, a man only accessible to the high and mighty. His wealth was immeasurable, his power undeniable, and his reputation? Ice-cold.I straightened my blazer, inhaled deeply, and knocked before stepping in.“Good morning, sir,” I greeted, extending my hand. He was so young and handsome. Indeed, the screens never did justice to his appearance. “I’m Tilda Grant. I am done with the interview.”His gaze locked onto mine, piercing and unreadable. But in an instant, he looked away, withdrawing his hand as if my touch burned him. He had smiled when I entered, but it was gone too fast to be sure it wa

    TILDAI tossed and turned on the bed as his hands reached for me.“I don’t deserve this,” I cried. “I don’t deserve any of this.”I gripped his collar and pulled him closer, searching through his blurred face, hoping to see James.“You are drunk, Tilda, by morning you will be fine.” He tried to resist but didn’t do a thing to stop me. Perhaps he felt my pain too.“It has always been James and no one else. They had no right to do this to me,” I sobbed. I sat on the bed and grabbed his neck, and as he made to draw back, I took his lips into mine, kissing him desperately, unleashing the pain and anger that I bore.“Tilda,” he moaned, caught in my web of revenge.“Shhh...” I placed my fingers on his lips, giggling. “I don’t know how, but I will make them pay someday,” I vowed in my drunkenness.“You can remain here, Tilda. You can stay for as long as you want,” he offered.I laughed out loud this time, my voice sounding strange to me. It was as if some other force had taken over, a spir

    TILDA“Prepare this file, Tilda, the meeting is in twenty minutes.” Oscar Gray walked in and stretched a file to me.As I reached for the file, I found his gaze on me. At first it was intense, then indifferent, and suddenly cold.“Okay, sir,” I replied yet he wouldn’t release the file. “I will work on it right away.”He dropped the file on my desk, his gaze still on me, this time expressionless. “This meeting at Petals Tower is very crucial. I want the merger concluded in a very short period. So you should know to put in your best in the preparation.”My breath hitched. There was going to be a merger of my company! That cannot be possible. Petals Tower’s foundation was solid and should survive whatever tsunami for generations to come.What happened? How did James run down the company? I was going to make enough money someday and buy Petals Tower. I had deprived myself of so many things all these years for the same reason.Should Petals Tower find its way to O.

    JAMESAs Megan explained, my mind dwelled on my encounter with Miranda at the mall. I still couldn’t help but wonder if by chance she had any information on Tilda.Occasionally, I nodded at Megan as she tried to get my attention but my mind remained far off. Was Tilda still alive? If she was, I must find her at all cost.Megan she handed a document to me. “Here is the document, James, sign it right away.”Confused, I only stared at the document. “Docu... ment,” I stuttered. “What is it for?”Megan got pissed. “What have you been thinking, James. I said it is for the loan. We need this loan to hire a more qualified lawyer for our case.”Kristie hissed. “He is never bothered about our predicament. He can always return to the slum where he belongs.”I remained quiet. The disturbing rumor about Kristie’s shamefully flirting with Oscar Gray was all over the place but I had initially chose to ignore until Shantel’s birthday.However, that was the least of my concern. I shouldn’t expect any

    JAMESThe same old Miranda—always looking so youthful and happy. Seeing her standing before me brought back a flood of memories. It felt as if it was only yesterday that she was sitting with Tilda in our house, chatting about everything and nothing.“I bet. And what about Tilda? Have you heard from her?” I asked, keeping my tone casual, though my heart pounded with anticipation.“No, not really. She’s been... out of touch,” she replied, her voice even, but I wasn’t convinced. Miranda had never been good at lying. There was hesitation in her eyes, a slight flicker of something unsaid.I studied her closely, searching for any crack in her façade. But Miranda simply smiled, keeping up the polite act. Perhaps she truly didn’t know where Tilda was, or perhaps she was protecting her. Either way, I wasn’t going to push. Not yet.I nodded, acting as if I accepted her response. “I see. Well, if you do hear from her, tell her I’d love to catch up.”Miranda hesitated for only a fraction of a sec

    TILDABy the time we arrived at the restaurant later that evening, the tension that had settled between us during the day had softened into something warm, something comfortable. The ambiance was inviting—dim lighting, a soft hum of conversation, and a live band playing slow jazz.As we sat across from each other in a quiet corner, I found myself smiling more than I should. He had this way of pulling me into his world, making everything else fade away.He told me a story from his childhood, about how he got lost at a festival and spent the evening with a kind old couple who mistook him for their grandson.“I didn’t even realize I was missing until my grandfather found me,” he admitted with a chuckle. “I was too busy enjoying their stories and the candied apples they kept feeding me.”I laughed softly, resting my chin on my hand. “You must have been adorable as a child.”He smirked, tilting his head. “I still am.”I rolled my eyes, but my heart did something strange—something warm and

    KRISTIEDylan looked up. “Mr. Gray is here now,” he said to his siblings. “We should go home.”Without a second glance at me, the kids left.I smirked. I wasn’t going to let this moment slip away. I strode forward and caught Oscar’s arm just as he was about to enter the vehicle.“Oscar,” I purred, my voice sweet yet urgent.His eyes darkened as he turned to face me.“I know about the kids now,” I whispered, tightening my grip on his sleeve. “What do you think the world will say when they learn of your secret affair?” I smirked. “You have to give in to me, Oscar.”His jaw clenched, but he said nothing.Instead, he exhaled sharply, his forehead creasing in irritation. Without a word, he stepped into the car, shutting the door in my face.The driver pulled away, leaving me standing alone.The next moment, Lady Sheila stepped out. “We are done here, Kristie,” she called to me.I went over to her. “Lady Sheila, how did it go?”I was enthusiastic as I gripped her wrist anxiously anticipatin

    OSCAR GRAYLady Sheila’s eyes flicked between Grandfather and me, her smile poised, practiced. I could already predict the words forming on her lips. She had come with Kristie—no further proof was needed.Confidently, she settled into her seat, her voice as smooth as ever. “Monsieur King, wouldn’t it be wonderful to have Kristie as part of the family?”She glanced toward him, gauging his reaction and when there was none, she went on. “She’s always been devoted to Oscar, and I believe she—”“No,” Grandfather cut in, his voice even but firm.Lady Sheila’s expression barely faltered, but I caught the flicker of irritation in her eyes.“Now, now,” she chuckled lightly, waving a delicate hand. “There’s no need to be so dismissive, dear. Surely, you can acknowledge that Kristie has more potential of being loyal.”“She’s been persistent,” I corrected, my voice devoid of warmth.Grandfather folded his arms, his gaze steady. “Sheila, we appreciate your years of dedication to the family. But th

    OSCAR GRAY“What do they want here,” I whispered to grandpa. “You should have informed me of their visit.”“Ah, Lady Sheila,” Grandpa said, his tone polite but distant. He pulled me closer. “I am just as surprised, boy.”Grandpa’s pleasant mood vanished instantly. It was all due to Kristie’s presence. As for Sheila, she was always welcomed to the house.Lady Sheila smiled gracefully. “Monsieur King, it’s been too long.”She cast a brief glance at Kristie, who stepped forward, clearly eager to make an impression. However, before she could speak, the kids burst back into the room, freshly cleaned and full of energy.The shift in atmosphere was immediate. Lady Sheila’s expression faltered. Kristie’s eyes widened in shock. They had not expected to see the quadruplets here.A brief silence fell over the room.Denzel was the first to break it, tilting his head curiously at the two women. “Who... why are they, Mr. Gray?”He shot a glance at me. They must feel that I had invited the ladies ov

    KRISTIEA mistake?Tense, I drew in a deep breath, heat blooming beneath my skin.Lady Sheila was my last hope, she was the only one that could get Monsieur King to drop his resentment against my family. Monsieur King would never ignore her.“Yes Kristie. Your marriage,” Sheila continued. “You marriage to James might be a sham, but it will stand on your way of getting Oscar. Such an arrangement doesn’t speak well of you.”I swallowed hard. Sheila doesn’t know the whole truth. I and my mother appeared like the victims to her. She mustn’t know that we’ve orchestrated this from the start and James was the pawn all along..“I had to do it, aunt. Our family was going to lose everything to James and that was the least I could do.”“I understand dear,” Sheila patted me.“The court case,” I admitted. “James couldn’t afford a competent lawyer. We could lose everything.”Sheila’s gaze turned calculating.“Leave that to me,” she said coolly. “Right now, we need to focus on Oscar. If Alicia stays

    TILDA“Not possible?” Miranda’s brows drew together. “Why?”I paused. For weeks, I’d buried the truth. Locked it away. Pretended it never happened. But I was exhausted from carrying the weight alone.So I told her—about the night I was robbed. The moment everything vanished. My savings. My future. Diamond’s future. Gone in a blink.The ring... unrecoverable.Miranda’s face went pale. “Tilda…” she breathed.“I didn’t even tell the police,” I admitted. “I was scared. And ashamed. That money was everything.”She reached for my hand. Her grip was steady, grounding. “You haven’t failed,” she said. “You still have your job. Your kids. And me.”Tears pricked at the back of my eyes. I blinked rapidly, but they came anyway.“You’ll work hard,” she continued. “You’ll rebuild. You’ll secure a better future for your children. And you will rise again.”I exhaled, shaky but real. For the first time since last night, a flicker of hope sparked in my chest.I nodded slowly, wiping my eyes with the bac
