2023-04-24 00:06:44Both women stare at the TV in utter shock. Their jaw drops as She reads the headlines over and over, still trying to process what she's seeing.
Why? Why was this happening to her?
"This cannot be happening."
She didn't even notice the angry tears rolling down her cheeks as she stood up.
"Why are they so keen on ruining my reputation? Why are they so keen on ruining my life?!" She shouts in frustration.
Rachel who heard her turned from the kitchen counter, the concern on her face turning into shock as soon as she saw the TV. The news shook her to her Bones.
"What the hell is this?" Rachel asks in a strained whisper as she steps out of the kitchen to get a better view of the TV.
"Well-known daughter-in-law of the Sky family, Leia Sky's dirty secret is finally revealed as a local source captured a picture of her making out with her brother-in-law, Mark Sky who seems to be her lover since back in her college days. Sources say that the history of the relationship between the two…" The lady reads.
Distantly Leia felt this violent urge to break her stupid nose or at least the TV. Anything just to shut her up. But Leia couldn't do anything. This fact just served to remind her how helpless she was.
With a moan of despair, she drops to the floor.
"That's fake, right? You didn't do it right, Leia?" Rachel asks Leia, her eyes still glued to the screen.
"Why would I do that?
I did tell you it was all in the past, for goodness sake Rachel, I'm married to Mark's brother. I'm married to Kasen. I wouldn't kiss him even if I was slowly dying from sexual frustration!" Leia sobs into her hands.
Rachel walks over to her and squats before pulling her into a hug. "It's okay Leia. It's okay."
"It's not okay." Leia half yells and Rachel winces slightly at her proximity.
"Despite being in prison, Kasen would hear about this. He's going to look at me like an ungrateful wife who can even cheat on him publicly even though I'm innocent. Does that sound okay to you? I'm not okay Rachel."
"I don't even understand why I'm worried about that cheat," she cries.
"Crying won't solve any of this right now Leia. You have to calm down and think about what to do next now." Rachel says. Leia threw her head back in pain-filled laughter.
"Maybe I should Sit back, watch N*****x, and eat ice cream as I bawl my eyes out till I grow fat and never leave the house again," Leia replied and Rachel has to stuff down her inappropriate laughter at the image Leia conjures.
She clears her throat after fighting back her mirth and snaps her fingers in front of her best friend's face.
"Snap out of it girl." At her words, Leia looks up at her before resting in her arms.
"All I've been trying to hold onto for all these years has been brought into the mud. Can you believe it ?" Leia sniffed and just as Rachel was about to open her mouth to say something, Leia's phone that was on the table started to buzz violently.
Leia and Rachel took a look at the phone and Leia was the first to gulp as the Caller's ID came up.
The words "Mother-in-law." Has never felt so threatening before.
Leia shakily took the phone, swiping the answer button, before placing it over her ear. "Yes, Mother?"
"Your presence is required immediately." She says before hanging up.
The sound of the dial tone seems to echo in the sudden silence. Leia looks up at Rachel with blank eyes. Rachel could already tell from her friend's face that something troublesome is coming their way.
The piercing sound of a hand hitting flesh was heard as Leia fell to the ground, grabbing her cheek which had already turned red with a handprint on it.
"You!." Claire spat at her face angrily. "You have no shame, no shame at all."
Leia left Rachel with her immediately after the call and now she was here, getting what she already expected from the witch herself.
Leia forces the tears threatening to fall back as she manages to get to her knees.
"Do you know what your stupid stunt would do to the family? Are you trying to drag our name in the dirt by carelessly flaunting your foolishness for the world to see?" Claire says, her eyes glinting angrily, not giving Leia any chance to talk before starting again.
"You couldn't even choose any other man but your husband's brother. You couldn't choose anyone but Mark? How stupid can you be? Now it's all over the news that the Adulterous Sky daughter-in-law seduced her husband's brother, while her husband is still alive and breathing."
Leia clenches her skirt with her fist, lowering her head further as she tried to purse her lips.
She didn't want to yell or scream at Claire even if it was all she could think about. It wouldn't do her any good in the long run and at the end of the day she was still her mother-in-law, she still respected her.
"You're such a disappointment to this family Leia and I'm so ashamed to call you my daughter-in-law. You couldn't even hide your infidelity."
Andrew just sat there, glaring at Leia. He supports every word his wife had to say to Leia. He couldn't even believe she would do such a thing and not even be ashamed to show up before them.
"I'm pretty sure it's because of you Kasen is still in jail right now. You couldn't even fight for him when he left, you couldn't do anything because I'm sure you weren't on his side. You're just a gold digger who wants to sit and enjoy his riches till you suck all the money out of him." Claire tapped her feet angrily as she walked over to a nearby vase. She cradles it in her deceptively small hands as she continues her ranting.
"You aren't even mortified by all of this. I don't even know what Kasen sees in you in the first place. You're just an ordinary cheap woman who would give a body to any man despite being married. A woman who has no shame because it's in her blood to be a lowly whore." Claire says, her expression twisted with disdain.
She brandished the vase in her hands, raising it high in a bid to throw it to Leia. However, she froze when Rachel rushed in and held a shivering Leia who was fighting back tears.
"What is wrong with all of you?" Rachel yells, her voice trembling from shock.
Claire looks at her with pure disgust, her mouth opening, no doubt to spew more hateful words. But Rachel didn't let her get a word in.
"You didn't even allow her to say her part of the story. You didn't even ask if she did it or not or if she was falsely accused. All you doing is jumping to conclusions and blaming her. Well fuck you guys and your shitty opinions." She spat before turning to Leia.
"let's get out of here."
She slowly lifts Leia to her feet. Giving one last look of disgust at Claire, Rachel leads her out.
"I don't want to see that piece of trash before me again," Claire yells at their backs. A cold cough broke the silence that followed.
Everyone turns to the door immediately.

Everyone looks at the door and sees Mark standing there with his hands shoved casually into the pockets of his slacks.Andrew stands up and the angry look on Claire's face vanishes. They didn't realize he was here already. Claire feels fear settling in her bones, worrying over the possibility of Mark overhearing their conversation with Leia, but after a few minutes of his silence, she realizes he didn't hear anything. He probably had just seen Leia's car drive out when he was driving in. Mark walks purposefully towards them, his cold and arrogant expression enough to frighten them. The aura surrounding him commands respect, dominance practically oozing from his pores. He meets the eyes of Andrew and Claire before lowering himself to take his seat before signalling to a nearby maid and the woman rushes out of the room to get him something to drink. "You can sit, you know, I won't bite," Mark says with a chuckle and the couple having no other choice quickly take seats opposite to

Leia got off the taxi, automatically paying the driver with some cash, and she faces the apartment. She knows her eyes are puffy and red from crying. Although she wiped and washed her face with water recently, the markings of crying were still visible on her face.With a sigh, Leia walks into the apartment building. She stops at the entrance to her place when she catches sight of Rachel and the landlord arguing over something."You have got to be kidding me Mr Jones!," Rachel yelled angrily. "I paid for this building's rent. I have like two years left and you're telling me I should move out tomorrow because someone bought the building?""You have to understand me, Miss Rachel. I'll refund your money but you can't stay here any longer because everyone in this building will be evicted in the next two days."

The duo were silent as Rachel drove down the dark road. The streetlights were bright in the darkness of twilight as Leia rested her chin on her knuckles, looking out the window of Rachel's crappy car. Said car was unusually silent and Leia could tell something was wrong with Rachel but she decided to not question it till they got back to the apartment. However, there has been something that has been bugging her since they left the station. What was annoying her was the fact that Mark left her in prison to rot there. He didn't even spend five minutes in the station and he didn't even look back to see if she was still there before he left the damned place. He was the reason that old filthy man called the police. Leia grits her teeth as she remembers what that old man did.Leia didn't even notice the car driving into an apartment's driveway. Rachel stopped the car after driving into the car park. Leia blinks at the abrupt stop. She watches in bemusement as Rachel turns off the igniti

They are all under Claire's influence and Claire is evil.Soon Claire's footsteps echo in the living room and Leia looks up from the TV which she has her gaze focused on. Claire has dressed in an elegant short blue dress and her hair is up in a bun.She doesn't look like a middle-aged woman at all, she looks like she is in her early thirties."Why do we have you here again today Leia?" Claire says as she stops at the last step and then Leia pushes herself up to stand and greet the woman before her when she suddenly starts feeling dizzy.The ground beneath her is spinning and so is her head. Before Claire can utter another word, Leia falls to the floor, unconscious.A few hours la

"At least learn some manners first." Mark frowns angrily and she seems even angrier as she looks at him."What is he doing here?" She half whispers to Leia who looks back at Mark before replying."Well, he brought me home." She replies softly and Mark walks over to them and dumps the bag of medications in Leia's hands."Don't forget to take your pills and eat. Stress yourself more if you like. If you conduct a funeral for your child in the next few days, know pretty well that I won't pity you even though it might be related to me." Mark says with a hint of anger in his voice before he walks back into his car and drives off.Rachel looks at her in shock. She isn't expecting what Mark just said and she needs Leia to give a proper explanation of everything he just said, but she doesn't look like she's going to say anything about it right there, so Rachel just leads her into the house."Where have you been since morning? I've been worried." Rachel groans as she closes the main door.She h

Leia rushed into the station as soon as she drops Rachel off at the airport. Her body, pumping with excitement and determination to see Kasen, she was going to discuss with him and tell him about their baby. But the closer she gets to the station, the more her heart begins to thump, she could understand that avoiding him was just punishing herself. This was really how she felt towards him, she couldn't let him go. Clutching tightly to the file in her hand, she makes her way into the office."Hi officer, I want to see my husband," she requests, rushing her words as she glances around. The officer stares at her for a while, well he did recognize her, but he exhales before shaking his head. That wasn't looking like a good thing to Leia as she draws closer to questioning the action just now. "What's going on? Why aren't you asking someone to let me see him," she asks. As she looks around, she notices the eyes of people as they start at her but she scoffs at them. "Why're they sta

Her name was still on the gun, her gun.Even if she swore never to use it again, she couldn't entirely get rid of it, and besides, the situation she was facing needed one.She needed to be somewhere, she needed to speak with him one on one. Leia was beyond fed up. It was time she met him, the master planner.At once she rushes out of her house and hurries to her car. "It's time both of us have a little heart-to-heart," she tells herself, igniting the engine zooming off. She arrives safely at her destination, the gates are closed with the two familiar bodyguards from last time on patrol. She gets down, grabbing her purse in anger. Her fingers could feel it, that strong metallic body, it was a beautiful feeling, and Leia couldn't help but imagine putting a bullet through his head.She'll be needing this after all."Where's your boss?" She yells at the guards, but they stand frigid at the door. "I need to see Mark right now," she gritted."You can't see him," the guard answers plain

"I need some time to think about it." Leia finally says, her tone calm and indifferent. Mark pauses before he sighs with what seems to be exasperation."Fine Leia. But my offer stands. Don't take too much time thinking about it." He croons in her ear. Leia can practically taste his impatience.She doesn't reply as she hangs up on him. Exhaustion seems to weigh on her bones, making them feel heavier than usual.

Leia clung to Opal, her body trembling as tears streamed down her face. Her friend lay in her arms, pale and fading, her life slipping away with each passing moment. The atmosphere seemed to close in around them, as if walls were pressing in on them, bearing witness to the tragedy that had unfolded.Amidst her heart-wrenching sobs, Leia's tear-blurred eyes rose to meet the gaze of the man who had just tried to take her life. It was the big boss, his face bruised and battered, his trousers stained with blood. He regarded Leia with disdain, his lip curled into a cruel sneer. He pointed the gun at her once more, his voice laced with a chilling determination."Second time's a charm," he hissed, his finger tightening on the trigger.Leia's world seemed to freeze at that moment. She closed her eyes, expecting the deafening gunshot to be the last sound she would ever hear. Death felt imminent, a crushing weight that pressed upon her chest.But then, the sound she heard was not the gunshot sh
Scandalous Secret Affairs Gone for Good.
Kasen and Leia stood in the dimly lit, small brick-walled room, their hearts pounding in their chests. The air was thick with tension, and the sound of trickling water echoed through the enclosed space, a chilling reminder of their predicament. Leia's eyes darted around, desperately searching for an escape route, but there were no windows, no doors, just cold, damp stone walls that seemed to be closing in on them. Her breaths came in short, panicked gasps as the water steadily crept up from cracks. She couldn't swim, and the rising water terrified her. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she began to cry. She sniffled a sob, trying to control her emotions. Kasen, determined to keep them both calm, reached out and gently touched Leia's shoulder. "Hey, Leia, listen to me," he said, his voice steady but laced with concern. "We need to stay calm and think this through. Panicking won't help us." Leia nodded, though her tears continued to flow. Kasen helped her press her back against t
Scandalous Secret Affairs Farewell.
Mark's eyes cracked open slowly, adjusting to the sterile, white surroundings of the hospital room. His head throbbed with pain, and every movement sent waves of discomfort through his body. He tried to remember how he had ended up here, but the events leading to this moment were a blur.As his vision cleared, Mark noticed two police officers standing by his bedside, their faces stern and unwavering. They were ready to question him, to unravel the web of events that had led to this tumultuous situation.Before they could begin their interrogation, the door to the hospital room swung open, and Kasen entered, his expression sombre. He walked over to the police officers and said something in a hushed tone. They nodded and reluctantly left the room, leaving Mark alone with Kasen.Mark tried to sit up, but the pain in his body made him wince. "Kasen, what's going on?"Kasen pulled up a chair and sat down, his gaze fixed on Mark. "I'll just talk to the inspector, it won't take long," he sai

The smell of gunpowder filled the air as bullets continue to whisk past them. Opal dove into the ground, escaping some shots merely by luck. "Retreat! Take cover!" She yelled, realising that in their current position, they could stand toe to toe against Mark's men.As they rushed backwards, a bullet sunk into the shoulders of one of Opal's men, ten impact making him to fall face down and roll. Opal quickly hopped over a rock, finding cover behind it as she rested her back against it, her chest heaving with exhaustion. She retrieved her gun and reloaded it, holding it tight with both her arms as she prepared for anything."Opal! I'm here, come out and fucking face me!" His voice resonated through the air, meeting her ears. He sounded like he was close, she wasn't sure how close, but close enough. Closer than he should be.She takes in a deep breath, "Fuck off!" She yelled back, hoping to deter him."Face me you coward!" He spat, his voice laced with anger."No!" She replied, her tone m
Scandalous Secret Affairs Ambush.
Mark and Leia had been running for what felt like hours, their breaths ragged and their hearts pounding. They had stumbled upon this cave in a desperate bid to escape the clutches of the big boss and his relentless henchmen. Now, as Leia rested her back against the damp, rocky wall, her chest heaved with exertion. The darkness of the cave enveloped them, offering a sliver of safety in an otherwise perilous situation.Outside, the big boss had ordered his patrol to scour the area, leaving no stone unturned in their search for his fugitives. The tension in the cave was palpable as Mark and Leia strained their ears for any signs of pursuit."So what now?" Leia asked. "They're after us."Mark sighed, knowing that what she was saying was true. "I don't know. Maybe we can wait it out in this cave," he replied.Just then, Mark's sharp eyes caught a flicker of movement at the cave entrance. He nudged Leia, and she froze, her fear mirroring the uncertainty in his eyes. The henchman who had jus

Although they had gone far, much farther than they could imagine, Mark's fears still caught up with him as he constantly turned back to look of her was safe from harm or not. Luckily he was with his phone as he speed dialed for back up, he couldn't wait any longer and it was times to put his plans into actions. "Everyone will pay he murmurs to himself out of anger.

Leia's breath could hardly breathe as she gasps for air repeatedly, her resistance knows no bounds as Mark couldn't help but fear, still he couldn't let her loose because he knows what she's capable off. She struggles against the restraints binding her to the ornate bed frame to the point where she had begun to bleed due to the injury on her wrist. Mark couldn't help but feel guilty as he found no one but himself responsible for her behaviour. Her eyes flickered with a wild, haunted look as they darted around the dimly lit room. "Let me go, let me go right now you madman, just you wait, I'll kill you as soon as I get away from here!" She promises Mark much to his fear. He couldn't possibly believe the words coming out of her mouth and feared the worst. Now she's become dangerous to both herself and himself. Mark stood at a cautious distance, not knowing what to do, his eyes filled with a mix of concern and fear. "Please calm down Leia, everything is going to be fine, I'll get yo

It took more than a while to calm Leia down as she would continuously try to wiggle her way out until she was finally subdued by Mark and fell asleep. Everything looked like hell for Mark wouldn't couldn't help but hope for the best to happen as it pained him to see Leia in this pathetic state, so much so that he refused to leave her bedside when she fell asleep.Everything was a disaster at this point and he just couldn't take it anymore. "Boss," his subordinate called for his attention. Mark couldn't help but feel irritated and yet he couldn't simply ignore their request as he knows that there's more to this interruption. With a heavy sigh he rises from the chair and follows them outside to hear what it is that they have to say. His men look rather worries while he was getting angry and the mere thought that they refuse to speak after calling him out. "Are you mute, hurry up and say something," he yells at them. Finally one of them volunteers to do the talking to which he appr
Scandalous Secret Affairs Falling Pieces.
Despite his happiness, Mark's worst fears were about to become a reality. He dashed through the hallway, shoving whoever dared get in his way as he hurried for Leia's room."Is she okay, how is she, is she in good shape, is it something serious?" Mark suddenly questions in a rush. He couldn't wait, especially not after waiting two days already for either of the ladies to wake up. His joy at the moment knows no bounds as he hurries to enter into the bedroom, the only stopping him is the doctor in his way. "Should I kill him?" Mark questions himself while he stares at the frightened woman who seems to repeatedly block each route he tries to take. "For god sake Mr. Sky you have to calm down," the woman yells. He couldn't possibly believe his eyes and eyes as he stared at the puny woman who seemed to lack a lot more flesh than Leia had. "It'll just take one twist and she'd probably pass on," he tells himself as she stares at her, examining what to do about this sudden disturbance.
