Terakhir Diperbarui:
2024-10-29 19:42:56As promised, Meghan was released from the hospital the next day on the account that she's improved greatly and was doing well now.
She was informed that they should be back in a week for check up and at the slightest sign of a relapse, she should be brought in immediately.
Jojo was elated with the new but she was just as surprised too.
They were being let go without clearing their bills, yet.
This was a first.
She asked the doctor about this and he only laughed at her question as if she'd only asked it in a bid to be funny.
"Of course we wouldn't be letting you go unless your bills are cleared." He said, taking in her confused expression before he finally got the message.
She had no idea what was going on.
The lingering smile died away from his face and he asked,
"You don't know anything about this, do you?"

The next morning came much quicker than she'd have liked and Jojo had to give up trying to get herself to sleep a little more and got out of bed.She trudged her way into the bathroom to brush and wash her face.A glimpse of her self in the bathroom mirror showed how tired and exhausted she looked from lack of sleep.She'd been up most of the night with the disturbing thoughts and questions that were nagging her mind and had only been able to fall asleep in the early hours of this morning.Only to have the morning rays snatch that from her too.Her eyes had the beginnings of dark shadows and they were a little red.If nobody notices, then she'd be fine.The clothe she had on was one of the ones she'd gotten before she'd moved into her mother's hospital room and was fairly decent.After deciding it was something she could go out of her room and down

Jordan was already having a bad day even before his phone rang.If he'd had to spend one more minute with fucking Lisa Monroe, he'd have been in a jail somewhere awaiting murder trial.The girl was totally useless to him.He'd have realized much sooner that she did nothing in that office of hers except let people into his and take phone calls that she usually ended up forwarding to him if he hadn't hired Jojo barely a week after he took her on as his secretary.The other woman obviously have been carrying both their work load while she perfects her art of applying flawless make up and trying to dig her claws into him.The rich, playboy boss that would look good in her book of life achievements.She could kiss that thought good bye already.Her type repulsed him.And even if he didn't already have his eyes set on one very stubborn dark haired p

There was a shift in Jojo and Jordan's relationship after that day at her old house that she wasn't ready to face.Memories of that day still haunted her.She'd didn't like imagining what could have happened to her if it hadn't been Officer Lucks in that house.Goosebumps covered her visible skin as she fought the meqmory.And then Jordan had come and there had been difference in the way he'd held her and the way he'd kissed her right there on their back door step.Slow and tender and every much the kind of kiss a girl can easily get addicted to.She was half way in love with the man already and if she let him keep kissing her like he'd done that cold afternoon, it wouldn't be long before she fell through the remaining half way.He'd taken his time after holding her in his big arm that made her feel safer than she could ever remember feeling before.

His mouth was back on hers with no warning and no apology.His fingers deftly undid the zipper on her skirt and pushed the piece of clothing from her skin like he found it offensive, all the while still pinning her hands behind her with his big ones.She loved the strength of him against her weakness and the barely restrained anger in it.When she started loosing herself in the intoxicating pressure of his full lips against hers, pushing the tip of her tongue against that predominant slit in his lower lip, he broke the kiss, roughly dragging his mouth from hers.She helplessly followed his withdrawing mouth, reluctant to let go of its mastered, rough bite against hers.He smirked and released her altogether. She whimpered at the loss of contact with his solid muscles and warmth."Get on your knees." He commanded, his deep voice husky.It was the perfect balance between commanding and sweet and rather than scare her, it aroused her and made her dripping pussy even wetter.His hand guid

Sleeping with Jordan McGrath was a hard memory to erase.He taught her body the true meaning of pleasure and passion.That evening, on her desk, had been memorable, intoxicating, branding and even now she couldn't stomach the thought of having any other cock that wasn't his inside her.The man had her ruined for other men.His voice, his eyes, the way he'd looked and the way he'd looked at her were all imprinted in her memory in permanent ink and try all she may, they weren't going away.The memory of his beautiful girlfriend with her flowing blonde hair and vogue cover worthy body had given her the worst crash landing back to her sense and she'd needed that.She fought hard to suppress her fast flaming feelings for her boss and she was failing miserably.He was good with Riley, playful and laughing and her little sister worshipped him.Except for M

He was saying something but she barely heard that entrancing low voice as silent tears shook her.It was hopeless.Crying seemed to be her usual thing now since Jordan just as being in his strong arms was becoming an unhealthy habit of hers.But she just keeps coming back to him like the helpless moth to the ferocious flames and it won't be long now before she'd really get burned."Did you hear me, baby?" His deep, rich voice asked as he fingered a lock of her hair that was among the lot that were everywhere.She liked the way he called her 'baby'.The word had rolled of his tongue perfectly, like he meant it and she was just as special and delicate to him as a baby would, even though she wasn't.She didn't let herself think if he calls Fayre 'baby' too.She didn't try to answer because she wasn't even sure what she was supposed to have heard,

He held her eyes as the last force of her orgasm thrashed her entire body.His lips found hers in a soul wrecking kiss as she rode out the final tremor.He was adept in his move as soon as she was down from the high and sagged against in relief.Before her brain could string up two coherent thoughts together, he had her sprawled on the wide three seater couch.His eyes ran over her like caressing fingers and she tingled everywhere that his eyes touched.She felt a little self conscious and she couldn't help wondering if he was throwing her up against the model specimens he's had over the years and finding her short comings.The lightning in the room was a bit dim but it didn't mean he couldnt see every inch of her body in it and it left her vulnerable."Stop doing that." He warned."I'm not d

Jojo has never blushed more furiously than she did in that moment.And neither have she dressed so fast.A peek at Jordan's face told her that even though he was angry at the intrusion, he found the situation funny.He was grinning at her as he pulled on his earlier discarded shirt with practised ease and swiftness.She was ill quipped for situations like this - almost being caught with your boss' length still buried inside you - but she was holding her own.It would have been classic.She didn't even want to consider what would have happened if Adam had walked through that door without calling to Jordan first.The big, taciturn man with his poker face wouldn't have acted on or teased her about it but she knew she'd never have been able to look at him again without disintegrating from the burn of her embarrassment. Her panties lay ripped on the floor and she glared at the culprit.His grin widened and without even the slightest bit of shame, he picked it up and still smiling at her, t

Hailey stood in front of the whole family, her seven year old palms sweaty. She'd spent the whole night reciting this all over again, so it shouldn't be a big deal, yeah? "It's okay, baby, it's just us." Jojo whispered from her seat, her very pregnant belly making her movement strenuous. Yeah, just them. Well, here goes nothing. "Uhhmm, this is my family tree....." She started a little shyly, pointing to the treelike structure balanced on the table next to her, stuck full of pictures. Her voice was so small, but it carried around the room. "I made it myself, well, mummy helped.....a lot. And I'm taking it to school for show and tell on Monday." She could see her daddy giving her an encouraging thumbs up and it put the light into her eyes and confidence in her voice. "From the top, this is Granny Meghan and Grandpa Tommy who I didn't get to meet and they gave birth to my mommy and Riley. Too bad they died b

If JoJo had thought her life was a mess, the truth she'd just discovered crashed if past the grounds, it shattered every truth she's ever known and believed. Uncle Fer....... Fucking Ferdinand! That monster. He'd been the architect of a her pain and problem but he'd always crawled back to blow on them and make it seem like he'd cared. And to find out that he'd been her sperm donor, it killed her to believe it. Jordan was as struck as she was from what they'd read. She ached for her mother too, who'd had to live with all these for years, having no one to be by her side while she played sick and lost in a bid to protect her girls. It must have been hard, being in bed all year round, reliving the nightmares of both events and hating herself for being so weak. She swore she'd be stronger, for herself and Riley and they'd bring the man to Justice, for her mom. But I like her mom, she had Jordan by her side in these t

Jocelyn,Been so long I said your name, guess this might be last you'd hear me call you by your name.So many years have passed and sometimes I lie here, in bed and regret the decisions I made in the past.But I'll always hope you realise it was all for the best, I did what I did to keep you and your sister alive and out of the clutches of the devil, Ferdinand.The man is a devil that shouldn't have found his way into our lives, but he did and till date, we are all still suffering in the wake of all his evil deeds.Tommy, your father, bless his soul, was a good man, the best ever.I met them both while in college and yeah, Ferdinand asked to court me first, but my heart had been longing for another and I'd turned him down.Turns out that was a sin he couldn't forgive.

"No, that can't be." Jojo muttered in disgust as she watched the video playing out before her.There's no way this is true, no way it's him.It'd kill her to believe it was and see just how blind she's been all these years, to find out that her mom had been right all along......God, no.But her denial didn't bring any desired difference to what she'd seen, it didn't wipe the memory or make the video a prank.This had been the night she'd lost her father, this had been where his body had been found, there's no mistaking it, she'd never forgotten.It took Jordan rubbing down her back and asking her in a concerned voice to breathe, to realise she'd been holding her breath.Maybe if she holds it in long enough, she'd realise that all this is just a dream home wrong.Or maybe it wasn't and she was just in a hopeless denial."Please Jordan, tell me it's not him, tell me that's not Uncle Ferdie, I'll believe you."She sob

After Riley was fed and out with her very own little family, Alfie and puppy, JoJo got to work searching for that little box.It was one thing to loose her mother so unexpectedly, but to loose the last trace of evidence and her only hope to bringing whoever had been behind her decade old pain to justice?No fucking way!She turned the room they'd been in inside out in her search, but it was nowhere to be found.She was already halfway done with fixing it back up when it did occur to her that she'd last seen the box while lying in that bed with Jordan.It made a lot of sense to think that he had gone missing from the room at the same time her box had and that easily translates to it possibly being in his possession.It kinda pissed her to have him butting into her family issues without her permission, even without the confirmation that he had.Stupid, yeah, but it did embarrassment to have all her linens in his hands without any contro

JoJo woke before Riley did, there'd been nightmares that didn't let her hold onto the oblivion for too long. She was glad Riley wasn't subjected to the same fate though that didn't hold for long. Tiny feet and big, soulful brown eyes found her sooner than she'd have liked, clouded with visible confusion and fear. "Come here, baby girl." She called to her from where she stood at the door. It did just occur to her why the room looked emptier than she last remembered it. Jordan had been with her before she'd succumbed to the luring hands of sleep. "Come." Her voice was much softer, pleading and beckoning, she didn't want force her, that could be more harmful than it'd be good. The younger girl finally gave in, and came into the room, crawling into JoJo's laps. She held her, stroking her hair, the quietness that was hanging around the house making her nauseous. Maybe it's always been this quiet with

The twist got bigger the deeper he dug and the plot hole wider.There'd been a lot going on with Tom Collen and Ferdinand and the more he discovered, the clearer it got and the more his theory on Tom's murder held.The files on the card were too many to peruse at one go so he abandoned it for the line card he'd inserted to read.At first there seemed to be nothing of interest in it until he stumbled upon a video record.It looked to be from a security camera recording from long ago.He sat in his chair, watching it and wishing he didn't have to.It made it worse that this was what he'd have to show JoJo, the horror she'd have to see.If only he could save her this, the pain and the nightmare.She didn't deserve it, not do soon, not with everything she was dealing with.He dialed Brad instead, requesting for immediate audience.They've become an investigative team of their own after all,bent on riding the world of

She finally fell asleep, right in Jordan's arms, drained from all the tears she'd cried and all the grief she'd let herself become buried under.He understood her pain, he'd seen it, experienced it and it was nothing to joke about.And he'd give anything in a heartbeat to take it away from her, to see her face light up with one of those her beautiful smiles that always made his day.These times have been the hardest and this crown looks too heavy for the head wearing it.But one thing he was sure of was that he was going no where, he'd be her, by her side until it gets better and even then, there'd be no force strong enough to remove him from her life.He loves her more than he'd ever imagined he could love anyone, his baby girl, his JoJo.She looked calmed while she slept, a tad bit relaxed, better than she'd been when she'd been up and grieving.He leaned down, pressing his lips to her forehead in a gentle, tender kiss.Her g

Meghan's passing was a blow nobody expected, and everyone was taking it hard around the house, especially JoJo.She'd never expected this day to come so soon and now that it did, it did hit hard.She'd been do lost, but Jordan had been there every step of the way, taking charge and getting the body to the morgue.At least that's where she believes they went.She'd let herself get sucked into shadowing Riley and crying her soul out.Riley was asleep now, having cried herself to it, and now JoJo had time on her hands to mourn.She had the watch she'd recently just retrieved, fiddling with it and wondering what she's supposed to do with the damn thing without Meghan to give her a guide.The door to the room came open and Jordan stood at the door.She wasn't expecting him to be back so soon.She could see the pity swimming in his eyes even before he took steps closer in her direction.He was careful not to wake
