Shirley pov

The maid got me a glass of water to aid me to stop coughing, after drinking it, I handed the cup back to her.

“Do you feel better now?” Yvonne asked and I nodded my head because I was really feeling better.

“You would need to host it, and let them know it's going to be the last because you are here now.” I opened my eyes wider than normal because that was really a cold thing to do, I couldn't imagine myself saying something so cold and heartless.

“You think you cannot do it?” Yvonne asked, clearly she could tell from the look on my face that I was not going to say such a thing.

“I don't think I can, that would be very cold of me, her family would be here.”

“I thought so too, you know I was in your place once.” I was shocked to hear what she said, does it mean she's not Jackson’s biological mother?

“He was married to the woman of the house for more than ten years but they had nothing to show for it, then she ended up dying from thinking too much, not long after I got marri

  • Second chance with my ex's uncle    chapter 25

    Shirley's povThe face didn't look in any way familiar to me, so I was wondering why she wanted to speak to me.“Hello, my name is Tivona and I would love to have a word with you.” “Me?” I asked to confirm if I heard correctly.“Yes you.” She repeated. I was wondering what it is she wants to talk about, could it be something so serious? I decided to step out of the car and hear what she wants to tell me.“Ma'am I saw your car parked on the highway so I already knew what your plan was.” I looked around me trying to see if there's anyone else around that she might he speaking to “So.. what was my plan?” I asked curiously because she sounded like she knew me very well so I would also like to know what the plan she saw was.“It might be very rough right now, but I promise you it's just a phase, suicide isn't always the best option.” I held in the laughter as well as I could. I didn't want her to feel stupid that’s why I did that. I don't know why she would think I was planning on commit

  • Second chance with my ex's uncle    chapter 26

    Writer's povJackson noticed that Shirley's eyes were fixed on something in particular then he realized he was still holding the gun he was with earlier. “Oh, sorry.” He said and fixed the gun into the bag he was holding, even though he did that, Shirley was still scared, the fact that he had a gun around the house is what scared her the most. She didn't know what she was getting herself into when she agreed to marry him that day.“The doctor called and said you visited.” Shirley was still trying to recover from the gun she just saw and so she was unable to think clearly. “Shirley, did you hear what I just said?” Jackson asked her.“Sorry, what did you say?” Shirley asked.“Look, I'm sorry if I have been mean and rude to you, it's just that I have a lot to deal with these days and it's mentally draining me.” Shirley was not in any way focused when he was talking, she just smiled and raised her head to look at him.“It's fine, what were you saying?” She asked again curiously because

    Writer's povJackson was still very upset with the way things eventually played out, he didn't say anything to his boys while they were heading back to the house, this gave them the signal that he was not fine. “Boss, you should have let me blow up their head, how dare he think he can fool you?” One of the boys said trying to make Jackson feel better but he just couldn't care less about what they were saying, the only thing that concerned him was the fact that he couldn't do anything to them after seeing the other hidden cameras they hid in the place.“Someone is plotting against me.” The driver stopped the car the moment he heard what Jackson said and the other boys turned to look at Jackson in disbelief because why would anyone be so fearless to try such a thing?“who would dare?” One of the boys asked still finding it very hard to believe that anyone would want to set Jackson up knowing the kind of person he is, if he was not so smart he would have fallen for the trap, good thing

    Felix povWhile we were on our way back to the house I was so upset that I wanted to return to the house and give Jackson a slap on the face. The whole thing was frustrating, the fact that he always thinks he can speak to me the way he wants all because he's richer.“What is going on Felix?” Amelia asked with her hands folded around her chest.“What do you mean?” I asked her angrily. She just comes up with stupid topics every time.“I am talking about the eye movement you were doing over there, do you think I didn't see the way you were looking at her?” “I don't know what you're talking about.” I replied to her and faced the other side of the car.I was still very upset so what she was saying didn't mean anything to me.“Felix!” She yelled angrily.“Stop the car.”Said to the driver because I might have to take a cab back to the house.“What is it Amelia?” I asked angrily.“You want to pretend you don't understand what I'm talking about when I clearly saw you staring at her. If you ha

    Shirley povJackson was finally conscious after some hours. I was relieved to see him healthy again. I can't believe I almost killed my husband just because I didn't know what he's allergic to. “I'm so sorry about this, I shouldn't have tried to act like I knew you too well.” I apologized to him sincerely.“It's fine, you don't have to be guilty, how were you supposed to know that I don't eat apples when I never said anything about my allergies to you? At least now you know.” Jackson said to me and smiled.He sounded so calm and he wasn't angry at all.Though I was feeling guilty but after hearing what he said I felt better, he was completely understanding and that made me feel good.While we were at it the nanny called my phone, I was wondering why she was calling because I had settled everything for Dylan.“Ma'am, Dylan has been crying since he got back from school, I have tried practically everything to calm him down but he's still crying, I don't know what to do anymore.” The nan

    Shirley pov I stared at his face waiting patiently to hear what he was about to tell me, he looked so serious which got me a little worried. “What is it?” I asked when he still wasn't saying anything. “I was invited to a birthday party.” I couldn't believe my ears, did he just want to tell me this? “Oh.” “Yeah, and you will have to come with me, it's a birthday party.” I dropped my spoon mistakingly the moment I heard what he said. “Look, I know that was not the agreement we had, the only reason why we are here together is because we wanted to help each other, you take care of the kid, while I your family issues, but this is….” “Why are you explaining so much, there's nothing wrong about attending a birthday party with you.” “Are you sure about what you're saying? Thought you dropped the spoon because you were shocked.” “No, that was a mistake. It's a birthday party so I'm in.” I said to him with a smile on my face. I decided to concentrate on Dylan since he is st

    Shirley povIt is finally the day and I couldn’t tell Jackson last night about the reunion because he was having a very bad time, maybe it’s for the best, I should just go alone and think of what to tell them when I get there. I looked at the dress I brought out again and realized it might not be good enough, it’s better I wear the limited edition, if I’m not going with him I should still try to stand out.I picked out the dress and went into the bathroom to have my shower. When I was done showering I walked out of the bathroom and sat on the bed. I wore something very comfortable and headed out of the room. Dylan wouldn’t be going to school today, he’s going to be homeschooled for the day so I didn’t bother trying to take him to school. “Good morning.” The maid greeted with a smile on her face. “Has he left?” I asked the maid.“Yes, not too long ago.” She replied almost immediately. I can’t even tell him about it even though he’s not going there he should at least be aware of it

  • Second chance with my ex's uncle    Chapter 120

    Writer’s povShirley was very pissed with Amelia for showing up in her house only to tell her to leave the house . She couldn’t believe that Amelia would have the audacity to tell her such a thing while using their dead friendship as a threat, “I really don’t know what she takes me for.” Shirley said a little above a whisper and sat on the couch. While she was sitting she remembered Jackson left in such a hurry so she was curious to know what the problem was, after trying to call him several times he was not picking his calls. “I hope he’s fine.” She muttered to herself while staring at her phone. She didn’t know how to feel about what’s going on, there was no one present for her to talk to, and the little boy had been taken to a school for special kids, though It’s a boarding school and she still tried to go see him almost every week.

    Shirley povSeeing Amelia standing in front of me with a smile on her face in my house is something that I never imagined I would ever get to see. She didn’t go with a frown, she came with a smile which was completely unlike her. I was wondering what could have gotten into her or if she missed her way and ended up in my house.“You do not look pleased to see me here.” Amelia said to me as she was walking closer to where I was standing. “You heard me clearly because I don’t remember giving you an invitation to my house,” I said to her, sounding angry and making it obvious to her that I wasn’t interested in her visit. I was a little relieved because Matilda was no longer in the house because both of them could actually team up just to make my life miserable. “Is it a bad thing to visit my best friend? You seem to forget that we used to be best of friends, why are you sounding like you have forgotten our sweet moments together.” I knew very well the kind of person Amelia is and how cu

She woke up very early in the morning and just thought about trying to please him one last time so that he forgets completely about the divorce topic. While she was in the kitchen struggling to make breakfast, Yvonne was on her way there to get a bottle of water.

    Writer’s povShirley and Jackson went out of the house, and while they were on their way to the restaurant Shirley thought of apologizing to him for what happened with the food earlier, she thought that would be the only way he would forgive her. “I’m sorry about earlier, I didn’t tell the chef to….” “I know what happened, you don’t need to apologize.” He said to Shirley as he was trying to stop her from apologizing to him. Shirley was shocked to hear that he knew what happened and how the meal was switched into something else. She realized that might be the reason why he told her to go with him. “You knew what happened? So why didn’t you say anything, I could have told the chef to change it.”“When she was sending the note last night I was downstairs so I told the chef to show me the menu she ordered, that was how I found out her intention.”“Why didn’t you stop the chef?”“There was no point.” Shirley was wondering what he was trying to say and why he was sounding like that in th
