Shirley povAfter the call with Felix I became even more confused. I can't tell what he needs at this point because why does he keep confusing me?My feelings for him ended the moment he chose to get married to Amelia, right now I don't know what has come over him that is making him think there is still hope between both of us. Jackson and I were seated on the couch, he couldn't leave without talking to me, to make me feel better. I raised my head to look at Jackson and he looked pretty different from the way he looked yesterday night when he returned from wherever he was coming from. “What happened last night?” I thought we had already gotten close with the way he spoke to me. I didn't know if It was okay or not but I just thought it'd be better to ask him such a question so that we can get closer than we were before now.“Felix and I had a misunderstanding and I heard something that I ended up regretting.” I finally realized why he was still looking like a ghost last night when he
Writer's pov“Please we need your help.” Shirley was shocked to hear what Sharon said to her because Sharon has barely needed her help since their fallout.“Why would you need my help? We both know who's going to help you, why don't you go to her, she's your daughter not me.” Shirly said angrily to them and she was about to leave again Sharon and Luke turned to look at each other when they heard what she said to them. They could tell she was really mad from the way she sounded but they can't leave now they needed to tell her something very important concerning their daughter. “It's about your sister.” “From what I remember I don't even know my family.” Shirley said to them angrily. “Shirley, you have to sit down and listen to us.” Luke sounded upset and Shirley noticed it.“Look, I know we did a lot of bad things to you but still we are your family, we raised you and made you who you are today so you will still do what we want you to do.” Sharon said angrily. She was trying at fir
Shirley povI increased the car speed as I was driving back to the house. I know that it has always been their plan to see me hurt but I was not willing to let them have their way.I drove as fast as I could without checking if I would be pursued by the police. While driving so many thoughts kept crossing my mind. I was wondering what kind of trouble Jackson would be in for him to call me the way he did. Jackson is not the type to confide in anyone like that so I was scared at the same time.Dylan has been kidnapped for more than three days and there's been no hope of finding him, then all of a sudden Jackson has a lead on where he could be, but I don't know what the problem is this time around. Finally after a very long drive I arrived at the location that Jackson sent to me. I looked around the environment very well and it looked like an abandoned environment. I was wondering, what could be going on here? There were no houses around, nobody , not even a soul was outside. Though I
Writer's povAmelia was in the sitting room while Yvonne was pacing around uncomfortably; she was wondering why Shirley and Jackson were yet to give her updates on their search for Dylan.Amelia couldn't care less about what happens to the little boy because she did not have any bond with him and at the same time she thought it would save them the stress of raising such a child.“Why am I yet to get any information from them?” Yvonne asks herself as she couldn't keep calm. She turned to look at Amelia who seemed unconcerned about the present occurrence.At first she thought Amelia was just a very spoilt child but seeing her level of lack of emotion she realized that Amelia was not just spoiled but also a wicked person.Yvonne was scared of calling because Jackson sternly warned her not to call him no matter what the condition might be because of where he is. She just wants them all to be safe. Felix got back to the house and sat on the coach tiredly. Amelia did not bother saying any
Shirley povI was relieved to see Jackson’s men, apparently they’ve been strategizing and spreading around so that they can have a smooth operation. Seeing Jackson in his element made me totally into him, I could finally see the thing they were talking about when they called him the ruthless Mafia.After a lot of shooting, he walked out of the building with Dylan. “Leave with him immediately.” Jackson ordered.“What about you?” I asked Jackson, I didn’t want to go without him because the place is very dangerous. “Just go, I’ll be fine.” Jackson yelled, I didn’t have any other choice but to leave. One of his men followed and he took the car and we drove out of the environment. While we were driving back to the house, I was scared. I was wondering what would happen to Jackson now.After a long ride we arrived at the house, I walked inside with Dylan immediately.“Thank goodness.” Yvonne said as she was running down the stairs, Dylan was too weak to say anything, he just kept staring
Shirley povI was shocked to hear what Felix said to me then I pushed him away, why does he think in his wildest dream that isn’t me, what makes him so sure of that mentality. I have tried so many times to make him know that I have a mind of my own and he’s not going to make me his woman because he lost his chances when he had them. “Get your filthy hands off me, can’t you get it that I don’t love you anymore? Why do you keep acting this way for crying out loud, you are beginning to make me Uncomfortable in a very bad way. Felix let go of my hands just like I pleaded. We both stood outside, with different things on our mind. He probably had our relationship issues on his mind while I had something else on my mind, there’s no way we are going through this when he clearly let go of my hand. “What is going on here?” Amelia came and broke the beautiful silence as we were trying to cheat our heads. When Felix heard what she said. He walked back into the house without saying anything an
Shirley povAfter the doctor left everyone had already gone to their rooms. We would be staying with Yvonne for a few days until things get a little better and we trace the kidnappers. Dylan and I were sharing a room. I could not sleep as I was worried about him. Looking at him now makes me pity him a lot. I wonder what the childhood trauma could be. The reality that a very little boy like him had already gone through a trauma was even more pitiful.I stood up from the bed and headed inside the toilet, when I was done using the toilet I stepped out and went back to bed. Even after trying several times I still could not fall asleep. While I was struggling to fall asleep Dylan woke up. “Oh my goodness, Dylan are you okay?” I asked him and he only looked at me without saying anything, this was the time reality hit me then I realized what the doctor said was true Dylan would not be able to speak until he's able to overcome the trauma. “Are you hungry?” I asked him and he nodded his he
Shirley pov“Why would you even think of saying such a thing? Obviously you did not feel like his mother.” Yvonne smiled when she heard what I said. “You will not understand.” she said to me calmly.“What is there to understand? Everyone in this City knows that Jackson is one of the most successful men from our city so why would you even think that you did a bad job raising him.” I said to her as I was trying to make her get rid of search thoughts. “While he was growing up he made a big mistake that cost the life of Felix's grandmother and his biological mother. I still don't know if Felix has forgiven him for what happened in the past but I tried my best to make sure that I raised both of them with enough love so that what happened in the past would not ruin the family.” When I heard what Yvonne said I realized it was more than what I had earlier imagined.“Few days ago when I had a misunderstanding with Jackson, that was when I realized that he has been bearing grudges. He said ev
Shirley pov“I know that you are just being jealous because I am finally doing something that you've never been able to do for him since both of you got married, it's been 2 years now and you still do not have even one child for him, look at me in just one night I already got pregnant, doesn't that ring a bell?” I quietly listen to her rant all she wants, obviously I know that she's telling a lie so there was no point exchanging words with her. I just wanted her to know that it will be a very bad idea to tell Jackson about a pregnancy that does not belong to him. “I really do not care about you, I'm only worried about the innocent child you're carrying, so I would advise that you do not tell Jackson any nonsense about being pregnant, sweetheart, you're gonna regret it.” I said to her and was about to walk away when her statement stopped me from walking away. I turned to look at her angrily when I heard what she said. I can't believe she could open her mouth to say such a thing to m
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
