Writer’s pov After the party everyone had already gone back to their houses. Shirley was not over what happened earlier at the house seeing her precious aunt being just like her mom and dad got her very disappointed. She somehow knew what the situation would be. She was only in denial because at the end of the day they are families.“I just want to wake up from this horrible nightmare.” Shirley muttered to herself as she laid on the bed. The moment she laid on her bed Jackson walked into the room. “What are you doing here?” Shirley asked Jackson, still a little too startled to get her composure.“Why would you even ask me such a question?” Jackson asked as he was removing his shirt. Shirley covered her eyes when she saw him shirtless. “Can you leave already!” She asked at the top of her voice. Jackson was puzzled by her reaction because he was not expecting her to react the way she was reacting.“What are you talking about?” Jackson asked her as he was wondering why she was behaving
Shirley povThe next morning I woke up and he was gone. I couldn’t believe my eyes. Why is he gone so early in the morning? I stood up from the bed and headed out of the room so that I could walk down the stairs and get myself a bottle of water. While I was walking downstairs I sighted Amelia walking upstairs. I rolled my eyes displeased. “What a bad way to start my morning.” I muttered to myself and heaved a sigh. It's so uncomfortable living with someone you don’t like because why do I suddenly feel like I’m suffocating. “You really don’t know when to give up right?” I stopped on my tracks the moment I heard what she said. I turned back to look at her and smirked. “Are you really dumb or you are just pretending to be?” I asked angrily because I knew very well that I’m the one that’s supposed to be upset and not her. “You think because you are married to his uncle you have the right to speak to me just the way you like?” Amelia asked. I couldn’t hold in the laughter after hearing w
WRITER’S POV Shirley stepped out of the house without replying to Felix, she knew that he was only trying to piss her off, and say things that would ruin her night. Good thing they would be leaving tonight. I stepped into the car a little upset. I can’t believe he was buying the clothes because they were his ex-wife’s favorites, I was so stupid to think that he was actually getting them because they suit me very well. When I got to the venue I suddenly lost interest and wished I could take back time, then I would avoid going for the dinner. I swallowed the hurt I was feeling and headed inside. One of the receptionists rushed over to where I was standing and directed me to the room.She opened the VIP area and I was shocked to see that it was not a private dinner, instead it was a mini party, all his friends were present with their wife. I gently took a few steps to go join him at the front table. The moment he sighted me he walked up to me and held my hand as we both headed to the
WRITER’S POVShirley returned to the house she was shocked to see that Felix and Amelia hadn't left the house and the first person she saw when she got to the house was Felix. He was sitting on the couch like he was intentionally waiting for me to return home. “Welcome back uncle.” Shirley turned to look at Felix when she heard his voice, she knew that the only reason why Felix was greeting so respectfully was because he might need help from Jackson as that’s the kind of person he is. “Why are you still here?” Jackson asked Felix who was looking really surprised to hear the question Jackson asked. “Grandma said she wasn’t done fulfilling the promise she made to her younger sister so there’s no way we would leave just like that. Jackson was furious he hates when his orders are not being followed just the way he wants. “Mom said that?” Jackson asked and angrily picked out his phone from his pocket Shirley was scared because of how angry he looked, he looked like he was about to do s
Shirley povAfter looking around for a while it started getting clear to me that Jackson was not over his ex-wife. I walked back to the room tiredly as I was thinking about what to do next from here, even though our relationship was not a real one I still don’t want to live with someone that cannot get rid of his past. I walked back to the room tiredly and heaved a sigh while sitting on the bed, this might be harder than I thought it would be.“Maybe Amelia was right anyways.” I muttered to myself feeling very sad.###The next morning when I woke up, I stretched my body while I was still laying on the bed. Then I stood up, I could hear noise from downstairs but I couldn’t tell what was going on so I stood up from the bed and rushed downstairs to see what was going on. Shockingly it was Dylan causing the ruckus, I was scared when I saw him crying and the maids were trying to calm down.“Bring my mummy back.” Dylan pleaded to his father and even though Jackson was trying to explain to
Shirley povAfter the doctor spoke to Jackson and I, I went to Dylan's room to check up on him and he was sleeping peacefully. I stared at his face very well and recollected the first day he saw me and how he rushed to me excitedly. Maybe he thought his mom had returned already. I patted his head slowly while watching him sleep. After hearing everything the doctor said, I decided within myself that I’ll do anything and everything to make sure he gets over the horrible past that is haunting him. I was about to get up from the bed when he held unto me very tight. “Don’t go mom.” He said to me with a sleepy voice. I couldn’t leave after hearing him say that to me. I don’t know why he always think I’m about to leave him, though I know that it’s as a result of PTSD but I really want him to trust me and know that I wouldn’t leave him just like that. “I’m not going anywhere, I’m here with you.” I said to him a little above a whisper while rubbing his hands lovingly. While spending time w
Writer’s povShirley was shocked to see that Jackson had been watching her from the corridor. At first he wanted to confront her but he stopped himself from doing that and just stood there watching her. Jackson knew it was completely unlike him to do such a thing instead he would go to the person and sometimes he might do something stupid to the person. But unexpectedly he realized he was very calm about it. When she turned to look at him watching her, she froze, she knew that he warned her not to get close to the room but she still went ahead to go in, even after trying to explain herself she still couldn’t say a complete sentence without shaking. Jackson walked closer to her and she took some steps back as she looked him in the eyes,his eyes were cold, Shirley could immediately tell that he was very upset even though he was trying to hold it in. “What did I tell you about this place?” He asked, still moving closer to her. “Dylan was…” Shirley stammered and still couldn’t say anyt
Jackson povWhen I got to my other apartment were I do business, i recollected everything that happened few minutes ago and how she looked at my face, I knew she went into the secret room to get Dylan out but I knew very well that she was snooping around because he came out and she was still in there. She looked really scared when she got out which made me wonder if she was able to see anything inside the room. “I really don’t know why she acts like that.” I muttered to myself and heaved a sigh. The thought of going back to the house tonight made me tired. Maybe we shouldn’t have left mom’s house, because there it would have been easier to avoid her. “Sir, there's new information,” One of my boys said to me, I immediately snapped out of my mindless thought when I heard what he said. He lowered his head and whispered the news in my ears. I raised my head to look at him when he was done talking to me. “There’s no way I’m going to let that slide. Take him to the cell.” I ordered an

He couldn’t stop inhaling the aroma because if smelt really delicious.“Looks like the queen of the house decided to cook herself today, what’s the occasion?” Jackson asked with a bright smile on his face as he was waiting to hear what she’s going to say.“Is it a bad idea to just decide to cook? There’s no occasion, I just want to do this.”“Are you a good cook?” He asked curiously and sat down so that he can watch her cook. Shirley was surprised to see Jackson act so sweet towards her. He was wondering what was the occasion.Shirley hardly sees him he this sweet towards her but it felt good seeing him act that way, she couldn’t

I know that you were trying to protect your son's marriage, which is why you're doing everything to make sure that Amelia and I get back together so that I don't go after the person that I really love, which is Shirley.” This came as breaking news to Yvonne because she has never thought about such a thing and why would she even think that when it's up to the young ones to make the decision.“I really don't know why you are trying to rob my good will on trying to protect my son's marriage I am only doing this because I seek what time shows in the both of you and as you can see Amelia has been trying really hard to prove that she is a better person now remember how she handled my birthday party and she hardly gets upset this days that's the only thing that is making me feel like she is a change person and you two can start things together again.” Felix loved when he heard what Yvonne said.Yvonne did find what she said funn
Writer's povAmelia was still desperately in touch of something that she could do to hurt Shirley. She thought about killing Shirley several times but she stopped herself from thinking that way because it was only both her in a bad situation and she might have to spend the rest of our life in prison which would mean that uh punishment to Shirley only came back to Haunt her.

Writer's povAmelia was still in the sitting room. She was still in shock after the slap that Felix gave to her. And as usual the only person she could blame it on was Shirley. She sat on the couch with her hand on her cheek thinking of how to make Shirley's life miserable worse than what she is going through right now.Amelia could recollect very well how cold his eyes were after slapping her. He didn't look remorseful like he had done something bad, instead she could feel that satisfaction in his face after slapping her.She was wondering why Felix grew to hate her so much, it wasn't this bad earlier because then he tried to hide his feelings for Shirley, and instead of loving her he chose to hate her, he hated even her smiles, he hated practically everything about her but all of a sudden things are now different he now makes it obvious in the presence of everyone that he likes her. He even went as far as telling her husband.Amelia wasn't ready to let Shirley live peacefully when h
Shirley povWhen we were done with our girl chat I stood up from the mini sitting room pretending to go get another bottle of wine but I wanted to know if Jackson had already returned home as he hasn't called nor sent a text. I don't know the exact reason why I was very bothered but I just felt very uncomfortable about his absence. I asked the maid and she said he hasn't returned. I headed back to give them the bottle of wine then I picked up my phone. After contemplating for a while I decided to call him. I realized that I could use Dylan as an excuse to know where he is.The moment I called he picked the call immediately like he was expecting my call.“Hey.”“Hey, I called because I was curious to know where you are. Dylan has been asking about his dad and I don't know what to tell him.” I had to cook up a stronger lie that he wouldn't trace I was lying.“That's totally unlike Dylan, why would he be worried about my absence?” Jackson asked.“I am as surprised as you are, it's total
