Marigold’s POV, The Anger and fear I’ve been feeling since my sex tapes started trending is something I have never felt before. With everything going on in the net, I’m sure Carlton would surely have a good reason to divorce me now! I needed to do something because there’s no way I’m going to loose Carlton. Especially to that bitch dahlia! When I left home yesterday after my ranting with carton, I came straight to my parents house. Even though my mother blatantly refused to help me with Alan’s blackmail, I still needed her help on this. She always have solutions. But to my Bloody annoyance, my mother insulted and reprimanded me for having my sex tapes on the net. Even when I told her, this is all dahlia’s fault. In the end I got nothing from her, but I didn’t leave the mansion. I couldn’t afford to go face Carlton As I needed to strategize. Still, Nothing was coming into my head until this morning when My mother told me what to do. “You will need to get rid of your sex tapes
“Andre?!” I know I’m long done pretending but the sight before now stuns the hell out of me. Andre is vomiting blood everywhere while on his inform. Andre had practically been through all sort of Ailment but vomiting blood? It’s horrifying. On impulse, I find myself rushing towards him. I grab his tiny shoulders and begin to rock his back while he continue to gag, spewing blood on the stair tiles. “Goodness! What the hell happened Andre?” After a while he finally stops gagging and what he does next appalls me. He weakly backs away from me like my hands burns him then he stands up. “Andre——“ I try to hold him but he fiercely back away. “Let go off me!” He snaps, his eyes glistening with pure hatred as they bear into me. The usual me would flare up but I can’t deny the hurt that sips through me at Andre’s reaction towards me. Maybe it’s because I’m already too gloomy and not my usual self right now. Or maybe it’s perhaps time for me to start warming up to my son before d
Carlton POV, “We’ve always known that marigold is a shameless whore but my son was just keeping her out of sheer pity!” Is the hot statement I meet my mother throwing at the media as I and dahlia are waking into the company. “Don’t believe her! She’s only saying this because she no longer wants me for her son. She's been pestering him to divorce me and don’t be surprised she’s the one who fabricated that video!” Marigold yell at the media, shamelessly lying against my mother. Well somehow she deserves it. I can’t believe that despite the scandals on the net, they are both here creating a nuisance in front of the camera. The chaos continues between them and no one notices I and dahlia walking towards them. My anger is explorating as I walks towards them but I just keep my cool. But what makes me almost go off is the very moment they all finally notice us. Immediately the altercation between my mother and marigold halts at once as they are the first person who notices us along sid
I clutch hard to the table knife. My heart swearing painfully as I am watching my husband and my sister openly flirting with each other before my eyes and None of our family bother to notice anything. Mari-gold keeps smirking as if knowing what she’s doing. The chattering and laughter continues while everyone is enjoying the different delicacies on the table. It’s my parents 26th anniversary and we are on in the mansion in celebration of it. “Taste this, Carlton.” Mari-gold shoves out a piece of cake and offers it to Carlton, while staring at me for my reaction and my very own husband shamelessly opens his mouth for her to feed him. “Mmmmm, Delicious” he exclaim as he munch on the cake, grinning in high spirits like a toddler with no problems in world. When infact we had one. Few hours ago, we were yelling down at each other before we arrived at the mansion. And it was over the photos that my sister sent to me when I was in court. If not for my years of experienc
“I didn’t want to expose it like this or today. But I just can’t hold back the excitement anymore!” She giggles excitedly. Her blue eyes twinkling like crystal as she turns to Carlton, not looking an inch remorseful or ashamed. With my breath hitch and heart still frozen, I turn to Carlton expecting to meet a baffled expression on his face, just like everyone else on the table. Or the exact bitter reaction he gave me when I told him about my own pregnancy but to my greatest heart-break, he had none of those. In fact, He has the most exuberant excitement I had ever seen him muster in his eyes. “What?!” Mrs Stewart voice cuts through the shock and tension in the atmosphere. “Are you being serious?” “Of course, right Carlton?” Marigold gestures at Carlton for some support, still grinning and Carlton doesn’t waste any time. He nods and takes Mari-gold palm into his, then he clears his throat. Boldly facing everyone with no atom of shame. his tone cold and firm. “Mari-gold is
when I arrive at a spot far away from everyone, My Kness weakens and I crash down to the floor, landing on the stair case. I allow the tears that I’ve been holding back to rain down my cheeks without trying to stop them. I’ve been through so much pain before but none has ever amount to this. Where my husband betrays me and everyone turned a blind eye towards it. I cry so much till feel my throat tearing apart. I wish I had never took pity on Carlton. I wish I had never been there for him all the time marigold hurt him beyond counting. The truth is Mari-gold was his first love. They dated for years and in those times, Mary gold kept hurting Carlton by frolicking with different men, still Carlton kept giving her many chances. And I was just there for him in his lowest moments, cheering him up and fighting my building feelings for him. He gave Mari-gold several chances but he had the last straw when he walked into Mary gold banging another man right in his office. And their weddi
I am staring at myself in the mirror and all I see is the exact opposite of what I’m feeling inside. I look so Docile and unbothered whereas, I’m a broken mess on the inside. I reach out for the glass of vodka beside me and I take the 11th Glass of shot for the day. What do you do when everyone shuns you out including your own husband? I’d tried to be strong but I just can’t. It’s been three days now since Mari-gold’s Accident and Carlton had refused to come back home. I haven’t seen or heard from Mari-gold since that day. Not because I want her to die or something but I know very well that I’m not needed in that hospital where she was taken for treatment. However, Today, I’ve decided to set things straight. Mari-gold is a bitch but I’ll just visit her just this once and I’ll sign my Divorce with Carlton. With my mind made up, I walk out of the room. I’m climbing downstairs when the door-bell begins to ring. I halt. Don’t tell me Carlton finally decides to come back home.
A woman this pregnant, needs all the help she can get”, Tristian winks as he shuts the door of his Ferrari. I sit silent at the back seat while he drives us into town. I don’t recognize the route we’re passing but I feel like I can trust Tristain since I’ve always had a good relationship with my clients from day one. Well, Tristian Martinez is one of the top Richest Bachelor in the country. He has several companies across the country and beyond. But that’s not just how I knew Tristian. He was the last client, I handled his case shortly before I was sentenced. He was in a really difficult situation. Drug smuggling isn’t such a trivial case. He was about to get sentenced to prison, until he hired me as his lawyer and we won the case. And suddenly he showed up at prison on the day of my release, offering to drive me home. But unfortunately, I don’t have a home. So, I tell him to drive me anywhere he pleases and he chose his house. Pretty soon, we arrive at his mansion. It’s

Marigold All over the news, I’m the trend on the headlines as everyone are shitting ugly stuffs about me. Not like they got into me, I mean I don’t even know these people so their opinion doesn’t count but unfortunately Everyone around me seems to be so affected by it all. Yesterday, My parents didn’t hold back from lashing out their disappointments towards me the second I stepped into their house! My own father even decided to leave the house because he couldn’t stand the sight of me. All my life I have never seen my parent go that hard on me. They made me feel like a complete shame and disgrace. So if my own family could be this much against me… I don’t see why the public backlashes should affect me. The only one person that’s been making me loose brain cells is Carlton. I can’t afford to loose him but I know if this whole hassle prolongs, he might really pull through with a divorce. I need to think of a solution. But as I’m sitting here at the dining drowning myself in alcohol,
Dahlia I wake up to an empty room not having any clue of anything. But just as I’m beginning to adjust to the setting, the door creak open making me snap my head towards the door to meet Carlton walking in. “The sleepy head is finally awake,” Carlton sing-song, A radiant smile plastering his face as he approaches me. He’s carrying a tray of food in his hand. A yawn escapes me and I stretch out while rubbing my sleepy eyes. “Jezz! What are you doing?” I asks as I watch Carlton drops the food tray daintily on the bed, just beside me. “Where did you get this from?” “Breakfast in bed honey.” He muse and throw a wink at me that makes him look so cute. For a flicking second he dissolves into the Alluring face he use to have when he was mg husband and to crown it up, he’s offering me breakfast just as he use to do in the early stage of our marriage. Christ dahlia! do you really have to think of that now? You are long gotten over this man. I scolds myself as I flash Car

Carlton The rain didn’t stop. Dahlia and I are left with no choice but to share a room and it will throughout the night. I can’t explain the amount of Awkwardness that’s stirring between us now. I’m staring outside the window, gazing out while dahlia is on the bed behind me. Dahlia didn’t want to Agree to this at first, she had insisted on going to her kids even under the pounding rain. Thankfully, the school had to send an email assuring all parents that the kids would be well taken care of before dahlia finally relaxes. “So, what are you going to do about the scandals going on about marigold?” Dahlia is first to break the silence and it’s as if she had read my thought. “I’m considering divorce.” I blurts out with no hesitation. “Divorce?” Shock is evidence in dahlia’s tone, like it’s absurd for me to want to divorce marigold. “Like I said before, my marriage to marigold had been a mistake. There’s nothing that can fix our marriage again. I can’t let her continue to rui
Stepping out of my company, I’m greeted by the host of medias engulfing me like bees. At once, different Questions is being thrown at me with microphone shooting from different Angles. Camera lights clicking on my face. The Anger stirring within can not be measured and if not for Alex intervention, I’m ready to punch someone. Thankfully Alex is able to tame the crowd off my path while shading me till I arrive at my car. With my Anger boiling over, I storm into my car and release a deep sigh. Without wasting time, I zoom off as fast as I can heading to the address dahlia sent. It takes just few hours and I am driving into the resort. The next couple of minutes is spent with me trying to locate dahlia while being on the phone call with her. And finally I spot her. The moment my eyes lands on her, there’s this instant calmness that wash through me. Dahlia seems to be having so much effect on me lately and I don’t know why. Even as I approaches her, I’m unable to take my eyes off her
Tristian’s POV, After settling some stuffs at the company with Benjamin, we both decides to hit some bar. Everywhere is bustling with life. Neon lights dancing around everyone body. Blaring music rippling through hall. while some people are dancing to it, others like me and Benjamin are sitting at one corner of the bar drinking. “So Now how do you intend to get Casandra off your back?” Benjamin ask, his voice barely Audible. I’ve just finish narrating to him how Cassandra’s pregnancy came about. “I don’t know,” I Sighs, taking a sip from my whiskey. And Benjamin Gives me a bewildered look like I just spoke French then he loosens up and drinks from his whiskey glass. He takes a deep sigh and his face softens, “About today. I’m really sorry that I have to get you down…” “It’s fine!” I groan, vaguely tired of Benjamin’s apology. He had been ringing my ears with apologies at every brief opportunity he got down to when we got into this bar. The plain truth is that it isn’t hi
