“Fairy?” Edwin couldn’t help but ask.“She didn’t say who it was, but today when she came to meet me, she mentioned Miss brown,” Ben remembered what happened in his cabin and said to Edwin.“Janet?” Edwin was surprised.“Yeah, she was saying something like her friend,” Ben said, which made Edwin frown.On the way back home, Elisa offered Janet to drop her at her home as Elisa had her car, but Janet refused, saying someone would pick her up.Elisa didn’t think wrong about it and agreed to leave her behind, but when she was starting her car, she noticed Elisa walking along with Edwin.She has never seen her brother with any girl.So, seeing Janet with him was disturbing.She sneakily followed them and when she noticed Janet was getting in his car, she couldn’t help herself from gasping in the backseat.She was so shocked and hurt in a way.What was this girl doing with Edwin? She didn’t want any gold digger bitch with her brother.Elisa never pried into Edwin’s life, but she wanted to k
Edwin was disturbed hearing Elisa’s words. It was not like Edwin cared much about Janet, but knowing how much his sister was getting close to Janet he was getting worried.This girl was still a mystery to him.What did Elisa see in her in such a short time that she wanted her as her sister-in-law?It’s not about Edwin’s life only, it was also about the Wilson’s group’s reputation.His wife would vouch for the legacy of the Wilson group, and Edwin can’t give this important responsibility to anyone.His mood got spoiled, and he didn’t want to sit here and work, as it would only affect the efficiency of his work.He picked up his phone and called the only person he knew who could make him forget all this drama.“Meet me in the thunder,” Edwin said, and cut the call.Thunder was a well-renowned bar in Sydney, and it only served those customers who could afford a hefty sum for its monthly membership.Few people know its owner, but Edwin had a private room there.This bar was set up when Ed
Edwin entered his house, stumbling on his steps, and tried to press the password in his drunken state.But he was so drunk even the password was showing an error.He tried several times, but every time it showed an error.“Damn,” He wanted to kick the door angrily when it opened from inside.Edwin was happy noticing the door opened on its own, but then he noticed Janet was standing there wearing her pajamas.“You back?” Janet asked and opened the door wide for him to enter.Edwin stepped forward but lost his balance and stumbled only Janet to balance him.“You are drunk,” Janet said and Edwin frowned hearing her comment.“No, I am not,” Edwin argued, and Janet just kept silent.Even if he is drunk, what is it to Janet? It’s not her place to comment.Janet helped him walk inside, made him sit on the living room sofa, and walked inside the kitchen to make honey water for him.It would help him sober up.Edwin was feeling sleepy, and he didn’t bother to walk to his bedroom and closed his
When Janet knocked and entered Edwin’s office Edwin was as clueless as Janet was.He understood Janet was avoiding him and he also didn’t want to face her, as he was clear who had initiated the previous night’s incident.Even if he was drunk, he couldn’t blame Janet who only wanted to take care of a drunk person.Edwin felt guilty thinking about how he had lost control and decided to stay away from Janet before he figured out what was happening to him.“Mr. Wilson, you asked for me?” Janet asked nervously and Edwin was also surprised.“Did I?” Edwin asked, and Janet gave him a confused look.“Elisa…” Janet said and Edwin realized what was happening.“Oh! Elisa. It’s fine.” Edwin said and closed the file he was working on.His sister was meddling too much in his business, but he couldn’t expose her in front of Janet.“Where were you all day? Why I didn’t see you?” Edwin asked, which made Janet look downwards with a guilty conscious. She was fidgeting with her fingers nervously.“Last n
Janet came back home after meeting her mom.Today she was happy because the doctor has given her hope for the first time since her mother’s operation.According to the report, her mother’s condition is improving.After the operation inside her mom’s brain, some edema was formed, which was contributing to her comatose state.But they were slowly reducing, and they hoped she could wake up within a week.However, how long she would have to stay in the hospital was still unknown.But Janet would be happy as long as she could see Rim opening her eyes.Maybe hearing her voice would give Janet the strength to fight.When Janet came back, she found the house empty.It was already 8 in the evening and Edwin was not back.When Janet walked inside the kitchen, she found it empty; she was confused as to why there was no food delivered when every day Ben ordered takeout from the well-renowned restaurant in Sydney and they had it together after office.She was hungry, and she thought Edwin would be
The next morning, when Janet woke up, she noticed Ben was ordering a staff to arrange the groceries.Janet noticed the kitchen was getting stored with everything a person needed to cook and even she was surprised to see all these arrangements.“I have arranged everything, Miss brown. You can check if you need anything else,” Ben informed Janet, but Janet couldn’t understand what was happening there.“Me?” Janet asked to confirm.“Mr. Wilson ordered me to arrange everything, and he wants you to cook dinner for you two from now on,” Ben said and Janet understood what was happening.When Edwin proposed this idea last night, she thought he was just pulling her legs.But noticing the arrangement now, she realized he wasn’t joking.Did he really like her cooking so much, Janet wondered.“It’s more than enough,” Janet said feeling embarrassed.She couldn’t cook every dish, just some home-cooked meals her mother had taught her.What would she do with all those things?There were some imported
Janet received the call with shaky hands and placed it in her ear.“Hello, is it Janet brown? I am Mrs. Rim brown’s attending nurse.” The caller said, and Janet took a gulp.“Yes,” Janet replied in her trembling voice.“I call to inform you that your mother has woken up and you can come to meet her ASAP as she was searching for you.” The nurse informed, making Janet to lose her balance.She was falling when Edwin came to give her support.“My mom… she …” Janet couldn’t say anything as she was overwhelmed with emotion.Edwin took her hand and made her sit on the chair as she cut the call.“What happened?” Edwin asked concerned, passing her a glass of water.Janet took the glass and hurriedly gulped as she was trembling.“My mom… she has woken up,” Janet said happily while a tear dropped from her eyes.“She is finally awake,” Janet said while trying to wipe her happy tears.She was waiting for this day so desperately.“I need to go to the hospital.” Janet composed herself and stood up to
The next day, when Janet woke up, she found herself in her room.She clearly remembered she was sitting on the sofa and maybe dozed off while waiting for Edwin.But what surprised her was that she was comfortably tucked inside her bed when she woke up.She got down and put on her slippers to walk toward Edwin’s room but found it empty.It was still early for office hours, but she didn’t bother and get ready for office.The dinner she had kept for Edwin was still untouched and lying on the table.Anyone would think he hadn’t returned, but he had changed his clothes, and his last night’s shirt was lying on the laundry basket.Janet didn’t know why he didn’t wake her up when it was undeniable that Edwin must have carried her to her bedroom.Janet didn’t know why she was feeling something amiss, but she didn’t get a clue and could only leave for the office after finishing her breakfast.The day wasn’t going as she expected.This was the third time Edwin ordered to redo a file and Janet did
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to the grand wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. Let’s welcome the bride and congratulate them for completing 25 years together.” The announcer announced while the door opened and there the beautiful bride was standing, wearing a beautiful mermaid-style wedding gown.She was holding a bouquet of White Lily’s with both hands tightly.Janet walked forward while Eric, and his younger brother, Ezra, were escorting her to the aisles.Erica and Edith, Janet’s third child are standing beside them holding the rings.Janet’s children have grown up and even though with time they had become busy and Janet forgot about Edwin’s promise to give her a wedding, Edwin didn’t forget it.So, on their Twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, Janet was walking the aisle though her children were close to marriageable age.Janet was at first shy and denied Edwin’s idea, but Edwin was adamant and finally persuaded her somehow.“Mom, feeling nervous?” Janet’s youngest child, Ezra, whispered in J
“How are you feeling now, Elisa?” Janet asked while serving her a plate filled with food.Elisa was in her advanced days of pregnancy and with time she was feeling uncomfortable every day.“I am good,” Elisa said while taking the plate.Janet served plates for Rebecca and her and sat together.They came for a picnic in Edwin’s farmhouse where they wanted to spend some quality time.Edwin was standing with Rabecca’s husband and Ben. They were, as usual, taking about some business matter while the ladies were sitting together.Eric and Erica were running in the field as they had already finished their lunch and Rim was looking after them.Eric’s grandparents were also there and sitting in the distance while watching the children enjoying their time.“Why did you serve so little for yourself?” Elisa asked, noticing Janet’s plate.“I am not feeling well for some days,” Janet said, and this made the environment tense.“Have you informed Edwin about your condition? He will take you to the
“When did you remember everything?” They have returned home and sitting on the living room sofa.Edwin was lying on her lap while Janet was caressing his hair.The TV was turned on, but they were only busy with each other.“The day I woke up in hospital,” Janet said and Edwin stood up and looked at her with a frown.“And you are only telling me now? That’s why you were behaving abnormally?” Edwin was taken aback by her revelation.Janet knew her reason was useless, and she was worrying unnecessarily.But she had suffered a lot through these years, and she was feeling insecure when she woke up.That’s why she didn’t know whether she wanted to tell anyone about her health.“Why?” Edwin didn’t understand why she hid it for so long.It’s been a week since Edwin brought her home.Why she was telling him the truth now?“I was thinking useless things. It’s not important anymore,” Janet said but Edwin wasn’t having it.He wanted to know what was bothering her.“Nothing related to you can be u
Edwin didn’t know why Janet had returned to the same sea beach, where they had always loved to come together.They have spent the best times of their life here and those memories were precious.But she didn’t remember their marriage, so there was no way she remembered that beach.But Edwin didn’t know a big surprise was waiting for him.When he got off the car it was already the time of sunset.He ran toward the beach as Janet’s location was showing there.After walking for a while, he noticed that familiar figure he was running after.She was standing there facing the sea and her beautiful long hair was flowing beautifully in the breeze.“Janet,” Edwin called, and Janet turned to look at him.Her face looked so peaceful, and when she turned completely, Edwin noticed she was holding a red bouquet in her hand.What was she doing here, Edwin was wondering, but looking at her Edwin was feeling a distinct feeling.She was looking at him like she used to do before.Before Edwin lost her, s
Edwin didn’t expect he would find Janet unconscious when he returned.He anxiously called the doctor and this time the matter looked serious.Janet’s condition was unstable, and the doctor advised to move her to the hospital.The doctor was confused as to why her health condition deteriorated so much when they were getting good results, but they could only try their best to cure her.Elisa was taking care of the children while Edwin was anxiously waiting for any good news.The doctor took a while to come out after checking Janet and Edwin knew the news wouldn’t be good.“Mr. Wilson, her vitals are good and everything looks normal, but it was like she went into a deep sleep. You can say she was in Comma, but it was not like there was anything wrong with her health, she was just unwilling to wake up,” The doctor's explanation was confusing.“What do you want to say? When would she wake up?” Edwin was only concerned about one thing.He wanted her Janet back, even if she never remembered
Janet was sitting with her children while they were playing on the living room floor and Edwin was doing something on his laptop.“Mommy, look we have made our house,” Erica showed her the makeshift house that she made with Lego.“Beautiful,” Janet said with a smile, though the house looked anything but house.“Dad, look,” Eric called Edwin to show him his house.Eric who was always ready to get appreciation from Edwin asked for Edwin’s confirmation.Erica was always the princess of Edwin and Janet, but Eric got connected with Edwin the most and always tried to ask his opinion on every tiny thing.Maybe it was the boy's things trying to connect with his father.“Nice, just you need to…” Edwin got up from his place and sat on the floor to help him renovate his house.Erica also ran toward him to get some help and Edwin helped her to make a pink house for her doll.Everything was so perfect yet Janet didn’t know why Edwin was still keeping his distance.Edwin returned to his work after
“Do you think he is impotent?” Janet asked and Elisa almost spitted her coffee out of shock.“What the hell? Where did this thought come from?” Elisa asked laughing, and Janet frowned.“Otherwise, why won’t he touch me?” Janet asked and Elisa couldn’t stop her laughing hearing her reason.Janet and Elisa were sitting in the Wilson group cafeteria and drinking coffee when Janet started this conversation.Edwin had brought Janet to his office as promised, and Elisa was giving her company as Edwin had an important meeting.“Though I hate this conversation, I can assure you he is not,” Elisa said and Janet was confused.“Why are you so sure?” Janet asked and Elisa sighed.“Janet, are you sure you need to discuss this matter only with me? He is my brother and I shouldn’t discuss his sexual life, at least. It’s so creepy,” Elisa said with disgust and Janet understood.This conversation must be making her uncomfortable.But Janet didn’t know who to talk with other than Elisa when this matter
One month later,Edwin was slowly getting back into his usual life.He was going to the office regularly and Eric and Erica had joined a school in Sydney.Everything was getting back to normal.Eric and Erica had gotten used to their life here and though they sometimes ask about William, they weren’t as much concerned as Edwin had thought they would be.Maybe they also think of him as a replaceable part of their life, which was a relief, because he would never compromise about this matter.William was a dark chapter in their life and he made sure he would never get a way back to their life.Edwin was trying hard so that they completely forgot that horrible person.Children’s memory is limited and someday maybe they would forget someone named William existed in their life.Janet was sitting on the bed while waiting for Edwin.It’s been more than a month since she had got consciousness.Though she didn’t remember about their marriage or anything about Edwin something was bothering Janet
Edwin was sitting in his office, and Ben entered with a file.“Did you get any news?” Edwin was impatiently waiting for any clue about William.He was still in Sydney because Edwin had blocked all the airports and the bus stops for him and unless the earth had engulfed him or the sky had hidden him, he couldn’t hide for long.“Yes, he was hiding in an old abandoned building. He thought we wouldn’t find him there,” Ben said with a scoff, and Edwin laughed mockingly.“He had underestimated our power. If we weren’t that ignorant, we would have found Janet early,” Edwin was so regretful about that.He thought Chesley wouldn’t keep Janet in the country, so they neglected this part, Janet could be anywhere nearby.Only if they have searched carefully.But William wasn’t lucky this time.“Our men have taken him to the warehouse, what do you want to do? Should I call the police and inform them of his whereabouts?” Ben asked, but Edwin wasn’t ready to show him mercy.He dared to touch Edwin’s
