THE HUSBAND TRAP 67: Callie
Two Months LaterAfter receiving that text two months ago from that burner phone, Aiden knew it was from Violet. He did some digging and found out that she was indeed back in America and had visited Mrs. O'Hare to announce her engagement to her Jamaican lover, but Mrs. O'Hare was happy for her daughter and prayed that their love was genuine. Aiden also hoped that Violet would keep her distance, but he knew better. He told Katherine that she was back in the country, but he didn't tell her about the message that he got. He did not want her to worry, so he thought it was best not to tell her, hoping Violet would just stay away from them. In fact, Aiden realized that Katherine was becoming a little stressed out at work, and was feeling sick, so he didn't want to add to her problems. "I'm fine Aiden, it's just the flu," Katherine reassured before she began to down the bowl of chicken noodle soup Mrs. Lewis had made for her."I know, but I think it's best if you visit the doctor or at l

Aiden was over the moon about the news of him becoming a father. Katherine, however, was a bit worried. The drive home was a quiet one. Although Aiden was gleaming with joy and excitement, he sensed Katherine's anxiety. He decided he would try to ease whatever she was going through as soon as they got home. They entered the house and saw Mrs. Lewis sitting in the living room. "Oh, you're home early," Mrs. Lewis said when she noticed them. She was seated and watching the television. "Can I please have a bottle of water?”Katherine asked. "I'll be up in my room." "Yeah, sure. Is everything alright?” Mrs. Lewis inquired."Yes, I'm just a bit tired," Kat smiled at her before ascending the stairs. "I'll get the water. You finish watching your program," Aiden said as he began walking to the kitchen. He didn't notice that Mrs. Lewis began following him."Is she alright? What did the doctor say?" She asked. "She's fine. She just needs to rest and take things easy." "So how far along is

The next two weeks went well for Katherine. Her morning sickness was less, and she didn't feel tired all the time. She wanted to tell her parents and Taryn so badly about the pregnancy, but she refrained. She found a distraction in work and also helping Taryn plan a surprise masquerade themed birthday party for Dustin. She avoided doing anything that was too strenuous because of the Doctor's orders and also Aiden's, who took extra care in ensuring that she didn't overwork herself and was eating and taking her vitamins. Aiden secured a venue for the party and also offered to pay the bill. After leaving the Café, the ladies went over by the venue with a few of the persons who would be working that night to complete some last-minute tasks because Dustin's birthday was in two days."Did you order enough alcohol?" Taryn asked Kat as they went over the checklist. One of the men began pushing a trolley with liquor to the kitchen. "Trust me, there will be enough alcohol here to cater for

The day had finally come for Katherine to do her second ultrasound. Her anxiety heightened when she read about all the reasons why her baby could have an irregular heartbeat. She told Aiden that she was worried that something would be wrong with their baby but Aiden reassured her that everything would be fine. "It's good to see you both again," Dr. Murray said as the couple settled into her office. Katherine was already on the bed and ready to get the procedure over with. Aiden sat by her side and held her hand. "How have you been since your last visit, Mrs. Windsor?" "I've been okay. I haven't experienced much morning sickness since, and I have a lot more energy." "That's good. Have you been taking your pre-natal vitamins?" "I have," she smiled. "Even if I forget, Aiden always reminds me." "Excellent, the prenatal have components that help with morning sickness and fatigue, so I'm glad you're feeling better than before.""Yes, I read up on them. I also did a little research on

Two days later, Aiden was at his office with a potential client. He wanted to expand his business and had been looking for spaces all over the country. While on his honeymoon, he saw a great opportunity in the French Polynesian area. He reached out to the landowners, and was currently having a conference call with one of them. "Mr. Mahk, I think 20 million dollars is more than enough to pay for that property," Aiden tried to negotiate with the elderly man. "And Mr. Windsor, I will not settle for anything less than 25 million," Mr. Mahk responded after his lawyer whispered in his ear. "25 million is way more than I can afford," Aiden fibbed."You lie, Mr. Windsor. I know you are a billionaire, that’s not too much," Mr. Mahk spoke with an accent. "You know the property next to you wanted me to pay them 15 million dollars for that space, but I thought since you are about to retire, why not help you retire in style? Because I hope when I'm your age I have that amount of money to retir

And on the brighter side, with Violet being married to another showed she was over all her shenanigans and obsession with Aiden. Maybe now she could focus on building a relationship with Katherine and her niece and nephew."What are you having for breakfast, Violet?” Mrs. O'Hare asked as Violet came downstairs with Marvin by her side. "Good mawning, Mrs. O'Hare," Marvin said in his thick Jamaican accent. "Good morning, dear," Mrs. O'Hare replied. "I'm not hungry, mom. We’re actually on our way to the airport," Violet replied. "Airport? Are you leaving me already?" Mrs. O'Hare inquired. "Actually, Marvin has to go back home. He has a very important business meeting to

An hour later, Katherine was at the school. She had called Aiden to tell him what was going on. He was on his way home. She also called Dustin and he and two other officers met her at the school. She tried her best to remain calm as she spoke to Nate's coach, along with the principal, and two security guards. "How could you guys let this happen?" Katherine fumed."Let what happen Mrs. Windsor? Ms. O'Hare comes to visit them all the time. Isn't she their aunt?" the principal questioned."Yes, she's their aunt, but she has no right to visit them, let alone pick them up from school. She's mentally unstable." Katherine gave out. "Oh my," the coach exclaimed in shock."Mrs. Windsor, we did not know. We are truly sorry," the principal apologized. "You will be sorry, she wasn't even listed on their emergency contact. Why would you let her take him?” Katherine sobbed the last part."Do you have any security cameras around here?" Dustin asked, trying to defuse the situation. "Yes, we have

Dustin and Liam got lucky while following some leads. They called Katherine and Aiden and told them that the SUV was spotted about five miles from the highway, so they were to meet him there. Aiden knew how stressful the situation was, and he did not want to make matters worse for Kat, so he tried to convince her not to come with him."Sweetheart I can't imagine what you're going through, but I think it's best you stay put until I find out what is going on.""Aiden, you know I can't do that. I have to make sure that my baby is safe," she said as she took up a water bottle. "I know you might be feeling helpless not knowing where Nate is. Trust me I feel the same way, but you stressing out is not good for your condition.""My condition?""You know, being that you're pregnant and all. I wouldn't want anything to happen to you or to the babies.""Nothing is gonna happen Aiden, I'll be fine," she reassured him."I just want to make sure," he said softly.

THE HUSBAND TRAP 85: Violet’s Sentence
The trial began a week later, and it didn't take long for the judge and juror to decide the fate of Violet. With all the evidence, it was clear that she was guilty. The only decision that needed to be made was her punishment."Your honour, the evidence presented in this case is damning and inexcusable," the lawyer representing Nate and his family stated. "Though the evidence is there, we see no reason why the book should be thrown at my client being that she's not a repeat offender," Violet's lawyer presented. "Not a repeat offender? If I may point out, she was being investigated for embezzlement and fraud. And if I recall, she fled the country before an arrest could have been made.""That's hearsay, your honour.”"Would I have brought this up if it was only hearsay?" The lawyer pulled out a few documents from a pile that was in front of him. He them gestured to the officer to bring it to the judge. "This doesn't look good, Mr. Ryan," the judge said to Violet's lawyer after reviewi
THE HUSBAND TRAP 84: Picnic Day
After Aiden informed Katherine about the trial date, they both decided that they would have a sit down with Nate over the weekend and tell him about what was happening. After Katherine finished work that Saturday evening, they all sat down in the living room to have a discussion. "What did you guys do today?" Katherine asked Nate and Nola, who were sitting on both ends of the large couch in the room and were engrossed in their tablets. "I helped Ms Lewis in the garden. We will have lots of potatoes and strawberries by the end of the month," Nola said as she placed the tablet beside her. "That's great Nola. I can make some strawberry tarts when they are ready.""I played on my tablet most of the day," Nate answered without taking his eyes off the screen of the device. "Nate, can you please put the tablet aside," Aiden requested. "We have something important we want to discuss." "Okay," Nate said as he tucked the tablet in the corner beside him. "Thank you," Aiden said."Alright,
THE HUSBAND TRAP 83: In One Week
Two Months Later. Things were a lot better for Katherine and her family. She was now seven months pregnant and couldn't wait to give birth. She had to take a break from doing too much work, so she mostly worked in the office of the Café. The twins were back to their old routine, especially Nate. He still visits Dr. Coleman once a week for one-on-one sessions, and exceptional progress have been made. He had a few more visits until the sessions would be over all together.Since the one-on-one sessions had been happening, they would bring Nate to the doctor, and wait in the lounge area until the sessions were done. Katherine and Aiden took turns in bringing Nate to his sessions depending on how busy they were. If they were both free on a specific day, they would all go togetherAiden picked up Nate from school while Kat was busy at work. Nola wanted Nate to stay and watch her practice, but Aiden promised her he would come back for her after her swimming lessons were done.He drove Nate

"What do you think it means?" Katherine asked Doctor Coleman. After Nate showed his drawing, he didn't care to talk about it. Instead, he turned his attention to his tablet. Katherine was worried, and Aiden couldn't help but feel helpless in the situation, so they pulled Dr. Coleman to the side to get to the bottom of things. "Well, it's clear that he has something bothering him.""Maybe I should ask him about it," Katherine pondered. "Baby, remember we tried, and he completely shut down." Aiden reminded her."I know, but I just want him to feel better. He gets up screaming in the middle of the night. He's not eating like he used to, and he's a bit withdrawn.""And these are all expected since he just went through a traumatic situation," Dr. Coleman began. "I would recommend one-on-one sessions for him." "You think that would help, doctor?""It's always worth the try." He answered. "He's the best I know, so let's see what will happen," Aiden suggested. "Alright," Kat finally agr

The next day, Aiden scheduled an appointment for the family to see the therapist. Surprising, the doctor squeezed them in that very same day. He also scheduled another appointment for Katherine to meet with her doctor, since she had been going through a stressful situation. "Nate and Nola are ready," Katherine told Aiden. She had left him on the phone with some clients while she got the kids ready for the day. "Give me a sec, my love," he said to her with his hands covering the mouthpiece of his cell. He then turned his attention back to the call.Katherine went and got herself ready in the meantime. After finishing up the call, Aiden got himself ready, then he and his family headed to the doctor's appointment. The therapist's office was quiet and quaint. Katherine was surprised to know that a renowned therapist would see them on such short notice, but she was getting used to the idea of things being less complicated and hassle-free since she's married to a very wealthy man. "He

The next day, it was time for everyone to go home. Violet, however, had to wait a few days before the process of being extradited was completed. "We're all set and ready to go," Aiden told the pilot after boarding the jet. Liam and Dustin fell asleep instantly as the aircraft took flight. Even though Aiden was tired as hell, he couldn't fall asleep. He watched as Nate looked through the window, admiring the scenery as they ascended high into the sky. "What's on your mind?" Aiden asked Nate as his gaze fell from a comic book that he was reading. "Oh, nothing," Nate answered. "Are you sure, sweetie?" Katherine asked when she noticed how sad his face looked. "Well, I was just wondering what my sister is doing," he said calmly. "Maybe sleeping," Kat said after checking the time. "It's still pretty early in the morning." "Oh, you’re probably right," Nate said quietly. "Yes, but I'm sure she will be thrilled to see you," Kat reassured. "I think so too," Aiden added. "In fact, ever

Violet's entire body was in pain when she came to. She found herself disoriented and upsided down, still in the vehicle and still clutching the case with the money. Her ears rang like someone had set off an alarm system inside her head. She looked around and saw the feet of two men coming towards her. They reached inside and carefully pulled her from the wrecked car. One of the men was a paramedic. He checked her out and said that she was lucky she wasn't hurt. She only had minor bruises on her face and arms.Soon Dustin and another officer walked onto the scene. As they were about to arrest and escort her to the police car, she made one last attempt to escape, but Dustin held his foot out, which caused her to trip and fall to the ground. The case flung open, causing the money to spill onto the ground. "Bastard!" she yelled from the ground as she tried to scoop up the dollar bills that were twirling around in the wind. Her heart almost gave out when she noticed something about the

The sound of the speeding car echoed through the atmosphere as Violet's goon made off with the money. Katherine and Liam ran over to the side of the beach where Nate and Aiden were. Dustin and Aiden's officer friend, officer Smith were already there. Dustin ran to help Aiden, while officer Smith watched Nate."Nathan!" Katherine shouted as she ran to her son. Nate outstretched his arms and ran to meet his mother. "Mom," he cried as they hugged each other. "Oh my sweet boy, I've missed you so much," Kat cried and squeezed him tightly. "I missed you too, mom," Nate sobbed. "Let me look at you," Kat expressed as she pulled from the embrace and began inspecting him. "Are you hurt? Are you cold? Are you hungry?" She fired off. "I'm a bit cold," Nate said, trembling. "I'll grab one of the blankets from the car," Officer Smith said. "Grab two," Katherine ordered when she saw Aiden and Dustin walking towards them. Aiden was sopping wet and trembling. Katherine hugged him tightly and
THE HUSBAND TRAP 77: The Exchange
The flight from West Virginia to Jamaica was almost six hours. When they landed in St. Mary, Aiden had already arranged for them to be picked up and taken to the nearest resort, which was fifteen minutes away from the airport. Aiden informed everybody that Violet was staying in a nearby town called Port Maria. They got to the resort and settled in, collecting their bearing and going over their plan a few more times. Even though Aiden encouraged her to get some rest, Katherine stayed up and made some spaghetti and meatballs for everyone to eat. "Katherine sweetheart, I really wish you would get some rest," Aiden pleaded as he stirred a pot of sauce, which he was ordered to do. "I'm almost done here, and besides, this is what's keeping me sane. This is my therapy," she told him. "I understand how you're feeling, my love," Aiden began as he placed a kiss on her cheek. “This will all be over soon. I already have everything set in motion." "I am so grateful to have you by my side," Ka
