Writer's povThey picked Daniel from the bus stop he was waiting for them. He was surprised to see his beautiful Marissa dress well, he couldn't believe his eyes.“You look…” He couldn't complete his statement but his eyes did the talking. Shirley was just smiling, the way they were acting made her feel chills, they clearly liked each other.He got into the car and couldn't stop stealing glances at Marissa.“I have been meaning to talk to you about something.” Daniel said to Shirley and she was curious to know what it is he wants to talk about.“What is it?” Shirley asked him curiously. “The other day, I told you to drop the painting at Felix’s house, why did you end up sending someone to do it?” Daniel asked.“Felix and I have a bad history, he’s only trying to get on my bad side.” Shirley said to Daniel.“Do you mind sharing, because he's my friend but I find him kind of obsessed with you.” “We were engaged after dating for more than five years and on my wedding day he ended up ge
Jackson povI woke up in a better mood and started regretting the things I said to Shirley last night. Maybe if I was calmer with her I wouldn't have had so many horrible things to say about her. She looked really pissed too, I don't think she will ever forgive me for saying those things to her.I got up from the bed and picked up my phone. I had so many calls that I missed, I was wondering who it could be that was calling at such an hour, and why they were calling. I decided to call my personal assistant, he's the only one that can give me full details on what's going on.“Boss, we lost one of our boys.” My heart sank the moment I heard what he said to me. How did that happen and who could have done such a horrible thing? I kept asking myself as I angrily sat on the bed. “It was made to look like suicide but it wasn’t boss.” I realized it was a neat job, this was a warning from our anonymous rival, he keeps doing things without the courage to show his face. When he shows his face t
Writer's povJackson and Felix's conversation kept going south because Felix kept thinking about Jackson saying words like he was being suspicious of him which made Jackson wonder why Felix was thinking such about him.“What about a drink, maybe then we can clear this crazy misunderstanding we are having.” Jackson said to him, when he noticed they were not going anywhere with the misunderstanding they kept having.“Fine.” Felix said almost in a whisper immediately. It seemed like he was suddenly feeling sleepy so he ended the call and dropped the phone on the bed. “What an asshole, you're yet to see the worst of it.” Felix said angrily as soon as he dropped the phone on this bed, he looked at Amelia as she was still sleeping, she was sleeping so peacefully which was very unusual of her, normally she would be up watching him and trying to know where he's going.Felix already had everything set up on how he was going to frame Shirley of being an infidel, he knew that would be the easie
Writer's povAfter a very long ride Amelia went to the place where Felix's car was packed. He looked around the environment and was wondering why a gallery would be built in such an environment. ‘Thank you sir,” Amelia said to the cab driver and paid him. The cab driver drove away. She still stood outside looking at the building very well. She was wondering what Felix will be doing in a gallery he has never been a fan of painting so what is he doing here?Amelia went inside the building in search of Felix then she had to stop when she saw something interesting. She brought out her phone from her pockets immediately so that she could make a video of what she was presently watching. “What the hell is going on there?” Amelia asked herself while making the video.Amelia was pleased to watch what was happening at least it is something that is going to tarnish Shirley's image, anything like that makes her elated.She was on her way to spy on Felix and see if he has a mistress only to find
Shirley povMy chest is hurting and the fact that I could not do anything to stop them hurts me the most. I can't believe that Felix is trying so hard to get back at me for something I never did to him. He was the one that broke our engagement and ended up getting married to my best friend and all of the sudden he is starting to act like a victim. When Felix left the gallery I picked my bag and my phone angrily and left the gallery with a conclusion in my heart that I will never return to the gallery again. While I was driving back home a lot kept running through my mind. Why was he suddenly acting obsessed with me when he ruined the beautiful memories we had together.I increased the car speed as I was trying to remove the moments that just happened in the office from my memory. I hated it that he was acting the victim. So much was going on in my head that I stopped the car angrily on the highway. I hit the steering several times and was angry. “Argghh!” I yelled angrily. I felt
Writer's povWhen Jackson got to the room he laid on the bed tiredly trying his best not to believe the video that was sent to him but even if he doesn't want to believe, everyone that watches the video would call his wife all sorts of names.Jackson thought of possibilities where Shirley will be innocent but it really doesn't matter at this point because of the mass of people that already saw the video he was starting to receive phone calls from business partners and colleagues that knew about his marriage with Shirley.Though he decided not to pick their calls because he had nothing to tell them and there is no way he would tell the media that what's being watched is true until he confirms himself. Just then a call from his personal assistant came in and he picked the call immediately. “Boss did you…?” His personal assistant did not bother asking further because Jackson already hummed to his question.“Just make sure that by morning the video doesn't exist anymore.”“Do you think s
Shirley povI felt hurt, I felt like my innocence was taken away from me. Seeing my video on the internet, my phone buzzing from several calls was giving me a panic attack. I just wanted to disappear from everyone and never return. I sat on the bed and placed my hand on my head tiredly. The whole thing was just too much for me and the reality that I have no one to talk to was beginning to hit really hard.My phone was busy with so many calls, but the one call I needed the most didn't come. I kept checking each time my phone rang but the call never came. I had to give up and turn off my phone so I could try going to bed.When I lay on the bed I looked at the ceiling with so much in my mind and I kept asking why I have to bear so much heartache. There's never been a time in my life when I was genuinely happy without having to worry about the joy being cut short.This was the same way I felt a few months back when my engagement was cancelled and everyone turned their backs on me as usual.
Writer's povMarissa was waiting to hear what Daniel would say, she needed to know the time that Shirley called, then she would know if Daniel was saying the truth or not.“Early noon.” “Thank you.” Marissa said to him and ended the call. After the phone call Marissa headed downstairs, she was going downstairs so that she could have a conversation with Lisa and both of them can look at the situation together and see how to help Shirley out of this whole mess.While she was on her way to the sitting room she sighted Jackson and she stopped on her tracks because she didn't know how to face him, she thought he might be too upset to listen to anything, which is why she wanted to tell him what she knew about Shirley so that he could have faith in her and know that she is not that kind of person. Marissa thought that Shirley was too nice to be going through such problems. After hesitating for a while Marissa finally took the bold step of heading downstairs to go meet Jackson. He looks real
Hearing that Matilda had sex with Jackson wasn't anything to me because I knew exactly what happened that night. I didn't want to say a word because I was waiting to see the kind of trick she's still going to pull.I feel like I have been putting up with love nasty things that Matilda does in this house and maybe now wait a time for me to put her in a place at least for once since she has refused to get the memo even after our last conversation. I smiled at Jackson while he was eating breakfast, both of us haven't made a relationship official because I don't know if he feels the same way that I feel about him, so I am trying my best to get ahead of myself and end up getting embarrassed. I feel like I'm waiting for the best time when I will finally be able to express my feelings to him but for now I have Matilda to deal with.“See you later at night.” Jackson said to me when he was done eating breakfast as he headed out of the house.I was the only one seated in the dining room while
Writer's povAt this point Matilda was all set to do anything at all that will make sure Jackson and Shirley are no longer together because seeing them talk a few minutes ago made her feel even more upset.The reaction she was expecting from Shirley is not what she got which was making her very upset and even uncomfortable because she was thinking Shirley you might want to do something stupid to her. Even though this seemed like a very good opportunity for Matilda to pin this pregnancy on Jackson she was still nervous about it she didn't know how successfully it's going to turn out so she was kind of scared about telling him.Matilda couldn't stop pacing around her room thinking of how to break the news to Jackson and definitely Shirley has to be there. She was calculating in her head when would be the best time to bring up this news because last night was their first time together even though nothing happened.Matilda picked up her phone immediately to check how many days it takes t
Writer's povJackson was wondering what Matilda is still doing in his room after she has gotten what she wants. “Get out of my room.” He said to her angrily trying not to raise his voice too loud but Matilda was still acting stupid so he had no other choice but to raise his voice and that was when she finally agreed to leave his room. Jackson felt something was wrong because he cannot remember what happened. He sat on the bed and closed his eyes trying to remember everything that he said or the things that he did but he just couldn't remember anything. He decided to go into the bathroom, turned on the shower and stood under for a while but still he couldn't remember what happened. Jackson felt like he was going crazy as he was trying to remember but couldn't even get a glimpse of what happened last night between him and Matilda.He finally realized that the reason why Matilda hated Daphne so much is because she always wanted him. He cut the clue years ago when he was still married
Writer's povMatilda was so happy because her plan was finally making progress. Ever since she got here she hasn't had the opportunity to do what she's here for. Now there is enough opportunity for her to get what she wants and she's not going to misuse it.She finally got to the room with Jackson and laid him on the bed. She was so happy because finally she would be able to spend the night with him and then pin her pregnancy on him, that's how she would be able to be the one in charge of the house and the first thing she's going to do is kick Shirley out of the house.While she was removing her dress Jackson fell asleep which was not supposed to happen. Matilda tried waking him up several times but he wasn't responding; he had already fallen deep asleep. Things are going wrong from that moment she realized she might not be able to have sex with him but she can at least frame him for sleeping with her after all she's already pregnant all she has to say is that he is the father of he
Writer's povShirley hated it so much that tears well down her eyes because she didn't want to act like a weak person in his presence. She wanted to make him feel that she is okay with the way things are going in their lives but at the same time she couldn't control her emotions because nothing is going the way she wants. First was the betrayal that came from her family and then she found out that the person she knew as her aunt was indeed her mother, her biological mother, and the same person that stood her up on their wedding day now wants her back.Everything happening was messing with her head because everything was happening so fast. She was wondering why she couldn't just be happy without facing any issues. “Everyone wants me away from their lives. A few days ago Amelia was here and she said the same thing that Matilda said to me. It just feels like everyone sees me the same way and they all want me away from their lives.” Shirley explained to Jackson. She didn't tell him all
Shirley povMatilda looked shocked to hear what I said. I can't believe she was thinking that I would go along with her plan without even thinking about it. She must really take me for a fool.“Did you just call me stupid?” Matilda asked me.“Well, that's because you are stupid.” I replied to her immediately. “You know you are crossing the line already.” Matilda said to me angrily. “Oh so i’m the one crossing the line now, a few minutes ago you were telling me about how you want me to leave here just so that you can take over and now you're talking about crossing the line when you crossed it first.” I said to her angrily.“You still don't get it. I was only trying to help. I don't know why you keep acting like I am the problem. When in truth I was only helping.” I couldn't help but laugh when I heard what she said to me. “You came here because you wanted Jackson to get you laid right? I can definitely see through you.” “I will not have you insult me like this.” Matilda said to me
Writer's pov“This is about you leaving this house and never returning because there is absolutely nothing you are doing here. I can obviously take care of my sister's son after all, he is still my blood.” Shirley was completely speechless. She couldn't say anything why Matilda was talking but she was very upset while looking for the right words to say so she won't be too rude.“Matilda, I am tired of listening to you and all I want to do right now is go into my room and have a nice rest.”“Don't you get what I'm saying? I just told you to…“To what! Are you even listening to yourself? You expect me to walk out of my marriage just because I don't have a child for him yet. Well let me ring a bell in your ear just in case you have forgotten your sister was married to him for 7 years and they had a child a few years before she died, just as she waited for the right time I am also waiting for the right time.” Shirley said angrily and was about to walk away Matilda held her hand again. “I
Shirley povI was thinking about going to see our little boy in his new school and see how he's doing because I've been too busy to go there. There's just been so much going on especially with Matilda's presence everything has just been going off.“Good morning.” I greeted Jackson with a bright smile on my face as I was setting the dining table for breakfast. I told the maid not to worry about setting dining because I will do that myself. Jackson also looked like he was in a good mood. He sat down at the diner also with a bright smile on his face. It's something that rarely happens.After setting the dining table I sat down and we both had breakfast for the first time since Matilda visited. We were eating breakfast without her and it felt so peaceful, I really hope something like this can happen continuously.While we were eating I told Jackson about wanting to go see our little boy today and he seemed really cool about it because it's been a while since he also saw his son so he thou
Writer's povAmelia was busy plotting on how the kidnap would take place meanwhile, Shirley and Jackson were dealing with Matilda's annoying attitudes and they had already gotten tired of her presence in the house.As much as she wanted to give Daphne the last respect by respecting her sister and giving her a roof over her head she still thought that Matilda was being annoying because she was making it look like she was the one doing them a favor by staying in their house.Each time Shirley gives the cook an order to make something Matilda would make sure that she changes the meal into what she wants using Shirley's name to do it, which was becoming even more annoying.While Shirley was downstairs using her phone she sighted Matilda walking downstairs as well. She was happy earlier when Matilda stayed in her room. Now all of a sudden she's coming downstairs again for no other reason but to look for trouble.“What are you doing?” Matilda asked rudely. Shirley had to pretend like she di
