A little slut? Joyce had endured a lot of verbal abuse but this one, taking place in front of the dean’s office at the reception, made her ashamed. When it came to facing her father, she was like a different person, losing all her confidence and pride together but right now, she had it around her neck and it was time to let it all out.

“Dad, I’ve always wished that one day, you’ll change your ways towards me but now, I know that would never happen. You don’t want me in your life and neither do I want you in mine.”

Her last words were accompanied by uncontrollable tears, making Martin lose his grip on the man and pulling Joyce simultaneously in his arms.

His action revolted the man and he wasn’t surprised that the little girl had even become a whore like her mother. However, Festus was hearing some strange words today and he wasn’t pleased with them at all. He had always only been told to call this man his father by his mother.

“Your daughter?” Festus asked in a shocked voice. Joyce wa

    Not his son? Shawn was both lost and speechless. A sharp pain pierced through his heart at the knowledge that a boy he had loved and taken care of for over twenty years wasn’t his. It was too painful than being dumped by a lover. Regret, shame, reproach, and loathing like pieces of broken glass began to prick him so badly but he couldn’t even cry.No amount of tears would wash the pain away. He was numbed by his environment and transported to a different world altogether. Joyce was having conflicted emotions. Did it mean that all along, her father was a watering stone instead of her and her mother? She should be happy that things turned out this way but it was even more dreadful for her.Martin didn’t know how Joyce’s mother would feel when this piece of information was relayed to her. Right now, he felt like he didn’t have to do anything anymore because Karma already did his dirty job for him.Anderson couldn’t care about the man’s pitiful appearance or whatever pain he felt.

    Anderson dropped Martin and Joyce at Martin’s home before he drove with Avery home. When they were alone in the car, Avery asked,“You are really not upset with me?” She knew that Anderson loved her but wouldn’t condone bad behavior. She should have reported Festus and not hit him but she never reported anyone before and thought it wouldn’t be effective.Anderson frowned as confusion glazed his mind. “For what?” He glanced at her cute face and asked.“For slapping Festus?” Avery responded, a little embarrassed. She felt that Anderson was just trying to save her face by supporting her action back at the dean’s office, not knowing that the man was rather the opposite. His words heated up her heart with comfort. “Didn’t I tell you that you have my back if you ever get into trouble?” He swirled his head from the road and glanced at her before returning his focus to the road.“I thought you were joking,” Avery smiled shyly. She had moved to the front seat when Martin alighted with Joyce s

    As soon as the trio stepped their feet on the corridor, everyone who saw them began to give way, as if they were afraid of offending them. Some of the students were speaking in hushed tones and most of them would give way when the girls got close. It was both strange and suspicious, making the air around them uncomfortable to breathe.Avery had no idea what had happened but Joyce and Laura were equally at a loss. “What is going on?” Avery asked Joyce and Laura and before they could open their mouths to say that they didn’t know, they saw Keke and Lizzy in tears, coming out of the lecture hall with one of the college security men behind them.It was obvious that they were trying to resist something that no one could guess what it was until Keke cried,“But one month is too much. We can’t catch up.” When she was called to the Dean’s office and given the letter, she called her parents to use their authority but it seemed that there was a stronger force at work, for which their parents co

    “Trent?”Avery was uncomfortable as she murmured under her breath at the sight of the familiar figure who kept smiling like a dunce. Trent would never be there for peace and just when she thought she could have her life back and put everything into perspective, he appeared from nowhere. Worst of all, he was in their lecture hall and had all the student’s attention.Avery never felt so embarrassed to see Trent. He was like an earthquake, bringing chaos into her peaceful life. Joyce instantly sent a text message to Anderson, ‘Trent is here in our class.’Anderson was already on his way to Avery’s school when he received the text message and stepped on the accelerator. He was so upset. It wasn’t that he lost trust for Avery but feared that Trent might result in extreme measures. Anderson had also tried to kidnap Bernice during those times so he felt like his past was going to hound him, and Trent might abduct Avery.A week ago, the collaboration that led to Anderson working together with

    Indeed, it was all because of their stupid bet but it seemed that things were now getting out of hand and if Anderson didn’t take serious precautions, Avery’s life might be endangered because Trent seemed to be out of control.Laura was a spy but Trent could go extreme to hiring top professionals as well. He could afford them now since he was no longer living in thousands but in billions. Anderson was beginning to regret it. Indeed, the bet gave him what he never thought he’d ever have again. Love. But now that he had it, he had to protect it very well. He cupped Avery’s cheeks in the palm of his hands, looked her in the eyes, and said seriously,“No, he still loves you so he can never hurt you.”However, Avery knew what she saw in Trent’s eyes. It was different from when they were in love, for which reason she was afraid. “But he wanted to kidnap me,” she countered.Anderson felt strangely pained, as he imagined what would have become of him if that had happened. “And I will make su

    “I’m sorry Joyce, he insisted that he had something very important to say and I thought that since it’s our wedding day, we should be…” Martin’s apology was cut off gently, as relief washed him. He couldn’t imagine offending his bride on their wedding day. “It's okay. You don’t have to apologize. I…” Her words were interrupted when the MC gave the phone to the man, who hesitated for a while before bringing out a neatly folded paper from his breast pocket, together with a neatly folded handkerchief, which he first used to wipe his tears. He looked at Joyce longingly before turning to face the crowd. “My name is Shawn Miller, and I have something important to say to the woman at the altar. I will try my best to not take too much of your time,” he said softly, remorse lacing his voice. Murmurs were heard for a while before the auditorium quietened down. Shawn turned to Martin and said, “Thank you for the opportunity, Mr. Stone. Martin nodded slightly as Shawn focused his gaze on Joyc

    Martin and Joyce had left for their honeymoon. Andrew and his wife Susan insisted on having dinner in Anderson and Avery’s house together with Sophia and Tom before going back on their vacation slash business trip. Anderson couldn’t refuse his parents who had already made arrangements to leave the next day. Something seemed to be chasing them away so if not for the wedding, they wouldn’t have returned. It wasn’t difficult for Anderson to make the necessary arrangements since he already had a chef at home so after ensuring that all the guests had left, the pairs drove to Anderson’s luxury home. Nancy had done a great job in organizing and transforming the dining room to welcome everyone. “This is amazing Ander, if I wasn’t there when dad gave the instruction, I would have said that you had it all planned,” Sophia said when Tom pulled a chair for her. Tom completed his therapy a week ago and was far better than he used to be. It also only increased his love for his wife and he was gra

    “What is the problem?” Andrew asked but seeing how his sister looked, Anderson discerned that she didn’t want her father to know whatever the problem was. “Dad, I’ll speak to Soph in private,” Anderson said. Andrew seemed uncomfortable but didn’t stop them, upon seeing how Sophia eagerly stood up and followed her brother. “Please tell Avery that I’ll be back soon,” Anderson turned around and told his father. Without waiting for a response, he left. “Tom is going to meet someone and I want you to follow him,” Sophia said in a disturbed tone when they stepped out.Anderson didn’t want to because he could see that his sister was insecure. Whereas, he found himself following her orders. They sat in one of the luxury cars and drove out of the house.Following Sophia’s directions, it wasn’t long before they saw Tom’s car a distance away. He had spent some time talking on the phone in the car, for which reason they easily caught up to him. “That’s the car, follow him but please don’t let

    A week passed. Ace would drop Rebecca at school and wait till her lectures were over. Then he would take her to the hotel. The detective sent the information he was looking for and it was confirmed that Rose was still alive and everything had been set up. Carlos had eyes on Rebecca’s family’s wealth and was also obsessed with her beauty. Ace ordered Carlos’s sister to be brought from wherever she was, which took two days since she was vacationing in Hawaii. The detective suggested that he’d be around when the questioning was done and also suggested that Rebecca returns to the apartment to help them to arrest Carlos. As expected, two hours after Rebecca returned to the apartment, Carlos and a group of guys were headed that way. As soon as they entered Rebecca’s room without knocking, the detective, and a few policemen, made their way there. “It seems to me that you like the hard way, Rebecca,” Carlos said when he entered her room. Rebecca was busy on her laptop when they barged in. S

    “You can’t do this. I said that no sex before marriage,” Rebecca said firmly, while Carlos dragged her to the door of her apartment. She was upset with the stupid request, looking for a way to escape this captivity she brought upon herself. “I agreed to that but what about kissing?” Carlos argued. He needed some intimacy, some kind of assurance from her. That would make him believe that she had indeed broken up with Ace but Rebecca was not ready to give in. “Please don’t do this. I’m not ready.” “Just open the door,” Carlos ordered, annoyed. Rebecca’s hand shook and the keys fell. Carlos knew that she was doing it intentionally. “Do you want me to tell everyone what you did?” He threatened her. She stiffened but quickly regained herself. “No.” She quickly picked up the key and unlocked the door but just before pushing it open, a strong force grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms. His soothing cologne scent brought her so much comfort. Ace spoke to Carlos’s hearing, saying,

    “Autumn, can you take care of the company for a month? There is something I need to take care of,” Ace walked into Autumn’s office and spoke.Autumn’s brows knitted, and she massaged her nape slowly, she responded saying, “I can. But I won’t, and you know why.” “I know that you are getting married soon. I will make sure that I finish everything way before then, I promise,” Ace soothingly said but Autumn shook her head. “That is not my reason and you know that mum and dad are among the board members, accessing our performance. Tell me what you are going to do or I won’t cover up for you,” She said solemnly sipping a cup of coffee. Ace went to hug her from behind, saying sadly, “Rebecca broke up with me.” Autumn froze and picked up her phone. “What? Let me call her.” Ace snatched the phone from her, straightened himself, and said, “No. Don’t. I suspect something and I need time to handle it so please trust me on this,” he pleaded. Autumn thought for a while and said, “If it's for

    Another ten years passed. It was Ace and Autumn’s graduation ceremony. Everyone was happy except Rebecca. Ace has been there for her at all times and she began to feel the emptiness. Autumn has been her best friend, aside from being family friends and she wondered how she was going to cope without these two. They were two years ahead of her and she always feared this time of loneliness, which came too soon since they lived in apartments. Rebecca had shared the room with Autumn and Ace visited frequently. “I promise to visit you every weekend,” Ace said solemnly. This was not the first time Rebecca saw him in a suit but today, he looked breathtaking. It was no wonder that all the girls swooned over him but Rebecca had always prodded herself over the fact that Ace only had eyes for her. He made his intentions known but aside from a hug, and a peck here and there, they never got intimate. Ace brought out a ring and slipped it on her finger. “I promise to marry you after you graduate fr

    A month earlier Anderson had returned from dropping Avery off at school. As soon as he sat on his seat, his intercom rang. He pressed the answer button, putting it on speaker mode. “Liana.” “Mr. Crown, Mr. Trent Baker is here to see you,” Liana said from the end of the line. Anderson’s browns creased, imagining the reason for this visit. After a pause, he said, “let him in.” Trent walked into the office and Anderson offered him a seat. “How may I help you, Trent?” Anderson asked with indifference, not bothering to offer Trent anything. It was not as if they were friends. “It’s about Bernice.” Anderson stiffened slightly. For a while, he has forced himself to ignore some intermittent sadness in Avery which she would not speak about. He already knew it was because of Bernice and never forced it out of Avery. Now he was wondering what was Trent’s catch in all this as well but somehow, he also did not want anything to change his mind, thereby responding coldly,“I don’t want to talk

  • Spoiled and Pampered by my Cold CEO Husband   Chapter 135 - Welcome, Ace and Autumn

    Avery was in her second trimester and her energy level was at its peak. She dragged Anderson to shop with her at the Crowns maternity and kids store. A week ago, Anderson had ordered her enough maternity clothes to last her till the twins were born. He would drop her at school, and wait for at least ten minutes until she sent him a text message that she was in class. He would also arrive twenty minutes earlier to pick her up after school. When Anderson thought it to be too much, he would excuse her from work to rest a day or two. Susan supported them greatly, ensuring that Avery ate highly nutritious foods and took her vitamins. Avery was gradually happy but still, anytime she remembered Yvonne, she felt saddened, hoping that amnesty would find her within a few years or a miracle would happen to reduce her sentence since Anderson had forbidden her from talking about it. The doctors confirmed her pregnancy to be healthy with no signs of complications, which was a great comfort, knowi

    Two months later Anderson went with Avery to the court to witness the judgment against Yvonne. They were surprised to see Trent there but he was in the company of a petite woman with brunette hair like Avery’s but the facial features were different. The woman looked very innocent like Avery’s early years in college. Seemed like Trent could not forget Avery and had to use someone with similar body features to help in that phase. For the past two months, the court battles were ongoing. Yvonne’s friends whom she had helped before, joined hands to help her with a good lawyer but the lawyer explained in simple terms that she would not win this case, looking at all the evidence brought out against her. The only thing they could do was to find ways of reducing the jail terms thereby appealing to the court that Bernice was not aware of Avery’s pregnancy so the judgment of assaulting a pregnant woman was reduced. Yvonne also pleaded that her intention was not to hurt or shoot Avery with the g

    “Yes. I am pressing charges for attempted murder, assault on a pregnant woman, and like you said, illegal possession of arms,” Anderson listed the crimes that should send Yvonne away for at least twenty years. By the time she was out, she would hopefully learn her lessons. “It seems she will spend a long time behind bars. I had her chained to the bed and as soon as she recovers, we shall begin to process her to court. I already spoke to Liam and will be going to meet him from here. What about the man in the video?” The detective asked again. “Yes, I am pressing charges against him too. He almost ruined my wife’s reputation and he has to pay. Let Liam handle the rest. I have to take care of my wife,” Anderson said solemnly. “All right. If we need any further information, we will contact you and even speak directly to your wife. The video is clear evidence but we might just need more,” the detective said. “I don’t have a problem with that,” Anderson agreed, just before Martin and Joy
