It was Richard all this while? What is he now, a spirit? And when did he start walking without making sounds?He scared the hell out of me, I wish I could warn him not to try this with me next time, But unfortunately, he’s my alpha and I won’t dare.“I didn’t know it was you, how long have you been here?”I couldn’t even look at his face while asking him questions, can someone take me back to college, please?I feel like a teenager right whenever I’m around him, I just can’t explain having feelings for two men, at the same time.“Did I get you scared ?” he said looking right at my face but I couldn’t still face him, what should I answer him now, yes or no?Well, I had to pretend to be brave so I kindly told him. “No you didn’t, I thought it was something trying to crawl in, and the kids are downstairs, so I was concerned about them more “.Hmm, why does he smile like that? Gave me the feeling, I know you're scared kinda but didn’t want to say, of course, I’m scared, won’t you be scare
Ok since he already got me what to wear, I should do them, and they look really beautiful by the way, So it won’t be bad doing new things.This is the first time Richard is getting a present for me since this marriage thing began.-Richard’s POV-Why does she always look surprised with everything I do for her? We are in a marriage even though it’s not real but it’s something, so she should get used to whatever happens in it.She’s just full of drama and reacts over everything, I wish I could help keep that in check, but don’t think I have all that time.Well getting her this dress was international, and I wouldn’t mind doing that more often going forward, she’s my wife, right? And everyone believes that, so she should look like it when she’s with me.But it looks like she always overemphasis on little kind of gestures, Just hope she doesn’t see them as anything deep.I wouldn’t want to hurt her feelings reason why I don’t want to give her high hopes is that I know it will get to that
Everyone is busy with chores and the house glittering like it’s Christmas, wow coming here is always fun I can’t even deny that, just that Mark’s presence will always spoil everything. I was just taking a walk around the castle and admiring everything around it, and yes I’m pleased with what I’m seeing, decided to sit and rest a bit before dinner time, when Christy came out to join me.“Gabriella my favorite daughter inlaw” Wow that’s a good feeling knowing that someone is already seeing me as the favorite, that’s good.She’s here probably to ask me questions, lord please guide my words so I don’t end up saying things out of context, she looks friend-friendly by the way, there’s no need to get scared over anything.“Hello Christy,” I said feeling quite awkward cause I don’t feel comfortable addressing her with that, sounds disrespectful and I hope I can get used to calling her that someday without feeling some kind of way.“Good girl, I see you getting used to the name.”I seriously
-Gabriella’s POV-Mark should not be this close to my girls, I can’t trust him with them, he should be miles away from them, cause he’s not to be trusted.I thought I had told these children a couple of times not to play with everybody they see, my goodness! Who knows what he must have told them?Ok Gabriella you need to take it easy right now, not you will do something you might regret later, Yea I think that’s right Let me think of the best way to handle this.“There you are, I have been looking for you girls”I quickly walked towards them leveled down to their height and hugged them.“We are Sorry mummy, we didn’t want to disturb you while with grandma, so we decided to play out here”Amber quickly said why still in my arms, and I could see how Mark stood like a statue watching me and the kids while we hugged.“Mum look, we met this uncle here again, “ Amber said pointing at Mark in excitement, It is a good thing she referred to him as uncle, I was scared I thought he must have fed
-Mark’s POV-What in God’s name is keeping Veronica from getting here? Is it when everybody must have gone? She seriously needs to speed it up cause I don’t know what the delay is about.Maybe I should call her, 'cause there’s not much time, of what use will she be to me if she arrives here late and I don’t get to accomplish my plan, it’s useless you know?She’s always too busy to answer her calls, Pick your damn call bitch! I hope this girl doesn’t spoil my day really, If she wasn’t gonna come why not inform me earlier so I can get someone to do this for me?She should better not mess with my plans, cause I will make sure I kill her! And now is quite late to go for an alternative, hmmm.Lord, what am I going to do now? Wait looks like my phone is vibrating, it’s Veronica! Crazy girl she’s calling back, where was she though?“Hello Veronica, where are you please?” I said sounding so impatient over the phone, and I’m sure she can feel it from there.“If you won’t come again please tel
-Mark’s POV-Wow, how I love this feeling, just look how every attention is on me and the best part is knowing That Gabriella’s whole attention is on me. Well is a good thing she came late, looks like this family day is strictly going to be all about me, I gently led Veronica to where to sit, pulled out the chair, and waited for her to sit before I could leave.I made sure she was properly seated before going to my chair, I could see Gabriella’s whole attention was on us and that’s just the way I wanted it, sat down and greeted everyone by bowing my head.Isn’t this beautiful, of course it is and I’m enjoying every bit of it.-Veronica’s POV- Where exactly I’m I? I’m in the wrong space, what is going on here? Why do I have Gabriella and Mark at the same table with me?“Lord Please help me out of this mess, please lord, did Mark do this international so they both could get back at me or something, I can’t seem to wrap my head around what is going on here.I don’t know if I should gr
-Gabriella’s POV-Girlfriend? guess he was just joking or Just said so to escape Christy on ending questions,I have heard Richard mention a couple of times, how his mum can be very interrogative, and I hope this is his way of trying to escape that cause.This isn’t making any sense to me. She’s your girlfriend, how? Or could it be these two have been in a proper relationship all this while and I have been a fool all along?Okay if he had her as his girlfriend why does he keep coming back to me? And even said he would do anything to have me back, while he had his girlfriend, my very own ex-best friend.Interesting huh? It’s fine let me not overreact at this yet, I guess there’s still more to unravel in this very situation right now.-Veronica’s POV-Did Mark just get me introduced as his girlfriend in the presence Of Gabriella? Did I just hear right?The plan was to come to act as his girlfriend in his family and little did I know Gabriella would be here, so if I’m his girlfriend what
-Veronica’s POV-It was as if the world was going to come to an end, How was I able to handle that though? These are the worst days of my life, I’ve never felt this low for so long.Now I feel even more of a failure than I felt in the past, looking at Gabriella in front of me looking like a prince and finding out she’s a wife to them is the worst thing that can happen to anyone.Gabriella is married to Mr. Wong the richest sexy man in town? Oh God! How did you choose to bless some people and leave the rest to struggle, Gabriella wasn’t even any way close to my beauty but look how you just made her a queen in my presence.She even has kids and my goodness those girls are some epitome of beauty, I have never seen a thing like, that in my whole life, what should I do now?Lord I promise I’m going to be the most loyal daughter if you ever give me half of what you’ve giving to Gabriella, I promise not to go back to my old ways, I promise to be a good daughter to you lord,I seriously have
Shortly, after, the rest started coming down from the car one after the other and immediately Christy's countenance changed on seeing Gabriella, Richard noticed and said to her, " Mother please not now" she passed Gabriella went straight to the twin and opened her arms for them to come in." I have really missed you girls, do you miss grandmother at all?""Yes grand mother we do, good to see you again" the girls said at same time, immediately Richard came and interrupted them with his question, " Mother have you seen grandfather today?"" Haven't set my eyes on him since today, but he should be in his room"" I should go look for him now mother"" You should actually Richard, your grandfather is really mad at what he heard about you" Christy whispered to Richard's ear.Immediately he turned to go after his grandfather the mother said to him, " Richard make sure you only listen when he speaks okay?" he looked and smiled then headed off to his grandfather's room, he got there
On their way Richard had the urge to call John and invite him over to his family house, he called the first and second time but notice John was on another call so he decided to give him sometime and probably call him back.Few minutes later John called Richard back and he didn’t hesitate to take his call, " Hello John my good friend" " Sorry man, I was on a call with Chloe the time you called"" Chloe again, has she said yes already?"" Yes man she just did, I'm so happy".Richard smiled then turned to Gabriella and saw her smiling too, he didn't go asking her why she was smiling cause he already knows, he then continued, " That's good man, I'm glad she did, I actually called you to invite you over to my family’s house today"" Is there a problem Richard?"" Not at all man, I just need you my close pal by my side and that's all"" Nice one man but can i come around with Chloe?"" Feel free man, she's your girl now isn't she?" You can say that again Richard, meanwhile I need to i
Richard smiled and gently walked her to the couch to sit, few minutes later she looked and saw Sofia and amber looking at her and smiling, then she proceeded to ask them," What is it girls, are you both okay?"" Are we missing something mummy?"" How do you mean, did something happen?"" Your Look happened mummy, what in the name of beauty is this?". Sofia said with smiles all over face." You mean I look beautiful like this?" " Yes mummy, you are more than beautiful, please what are we celebrating mummy, daddy?" Sofia said looking at Gabriella and Richard, and they in turn looked at each other and said at same time," Nothing actually girls, is just a visit to the granny's"" I doubt this mummy, but we gonna find out soon"" Find what out Sofia, what is wrong with this girls?"" Nothing mummy, please who are we waiting for again?"" Ma'am Caroline Sofia, she's not in our midst" Amber said" What is holding her back? please let me quickly go get her".Sofia got up and about going o
-Mark's POV-After all the hard I fought I still ended up in this place without achieving my plans, how was I suppose to know uncle Richard would come for me that early?.My plan was to strike the third time then forcefully take Gabriella with me, cause that lady is my whole life, little did I know he has his own plans going on in his mind too, but come to think of it, how did this people find out I was the person behind the accident? yea I know I made the girls own quite open to them cause I was actually beclouded by my emotions.But this car thing got me really surprised, how were they able to know I was the person behind it? I just ended up a looser after all the hard I fought, if only I can turn the hands of clock, who knows where he would be taking me to after now. My mum will be surprised hearing the things I did so far just to have a woman for myself, csuse I know in the next family gathering grandfather would definitely want her to be there, and all this will be unveiled.R
She dragged her hands off and immediately ran to block Chloe's walk way, when Chloe saw she was shedding tears already she had to draw her closer and said to her, " Please don't cry Jessica, aunty is fine okay?"" So what is the problem aunty Chloe, why are you acting so strange?"" I'm not acting strange Jessica, I'm just overwhelmed by the moment"" Overwhelmed by the moment? what does that even mean?".When Chloe saw Jessica wasn't going to give on the questions, she then slowly whispered to her ear, " Uncle John was here" Jessica was excited and almost ran off with the excitement to go meet John outside when Chloe said to her, " He just left Jessica and he sends his regards and that pack you are holding"" Wow, I'm so happy aunty Chloe, did you guys hang out?" " Yes we did Jessica, can we go in peaceful now?"" Off course aunty, but did he say anything to you?"" Yes he did ma'am, and I'm sure you already know what that is".Jessica screamed and hugged Chloe very tight but
" Can I Please think about this John?"" Take your time Chloe, but just know I anticipate a good answer in the future"" It's fine John, I've heard all you said, I need to leave now I didn't tell Jessica I was coming here"" Yeah you would but you need to eat something first and possibly take some home to Jessica".He stood and held Chloe's hand then adjusted the chair to give her space to walk through, " Thank you John" " You are most welcome, now let’s go grab something to eat".They walked to where John parked his car and drove to the restaurant Chloe earlier mentioned she would like to eat in, soon their were there and placed their orders but John was shocked with how Chloe was rushing on the food, " But you never mentioned you were this hungry Chloe?".She looked up with her mouth filled up but didn't know what to actually say to John, she slowly bent and continued devouring her meal but suddenly said to John, " This food taste really nice?"" I know right?"" Yeah I had alwa
She became worried as John doesn't want to come straight and tell her what the problem is, she decided to stay calm and observe him but when she saw John was not ready to speak, she said, " How long will this continue?" she asked John and bent over the table.When John saw she was going emotional he had to quickly say to her, " Chloe?" she raised her head but completely down, " What is it John?" she asked him with eyes already turning red" I actually asked Jessica to speak with you on my behalf".For a complete 1 minute Chloe's eyes were still wide open, the shock completely took over her that John had to hold her two hands, immediately she looked down and saw John holding her hands.-Chloe's POV-Holy Jesus! what exactly is happening here right now ? I'm I being pranked on or something? what did John just said now? and why does his face look like he mean everything he is saying? my God, I seriously need someone to wake me up from this sleep cause I'm tired of dreaming.What if t
" But I told you to stop talking about that right?"" I'm sorry aunty Chloe but I can not, he likes you for real".She stood up from the bed in anger and kept walking round the room, Jessica herself became really uncomfortable as she doesn't know what she can do to make Chloe feel relaxed at that point, she stood up walked towards Chloe who was standing at the window and looking out from there.She got close and about to hold Chloe's hand when she screamed at her, " Get your hands off me Jessica!"" I'm sorry aunty I didn't mean to get you this upset Please" Jessica said going on her knees" But I told you Jessica, didn't I?"" You did aunty Chloe, but he just told me that himself"" He did what?".She quickly turned and rested her back at the window while looking at Jessica, " Yes aunty Chloe he actually did, he said he doesn't know how you may feel about it"" Really?"" Yes aunty Chloe"Chloe held Jessica's hand and said to her, " Going foreword Jessica I don't ever want you t
John took his time explaining his feelings to Jessica and she was shock at first, she thought about how herself and John could be thinking in same direction, " Uncle John should I see this as a joke or something?"" No Jessica, it's definitely not a joke, I myself can't explain how I came this far, and I can't put a stop to it either".-Jessica's POV-My goddess, my goodness, my goodness! he finally spilled the beans, my God I’m I dreaming? I told aunty Chloe Nothing is ever impossible and she thought is part of the kiddies talk.Now loook at it he has actually been feeling same way to the point of expressing his feelings, oh my God how can I hold back this joy so I don't make it too obvious to him that I have always wished for this my fairy plan to come to an existence?.But Nothing is wrong with him finding out anyways, at least it's a good deal on my side cause my aunty will end up buying me the dinner gown, wow! finally I'm going to own that same gown that I have always cherish
