Micheal's POV

“Kate, what's this all about? You said you want to talk? You have your chance now.”

“Micheal, why the rush? you can't stand being with me. Is that bad now?”

Seeing my ex-wife again after 15 years does a lot of things to me. I don't even know how to feel right now—should I be sad, angry, hurt, or in pain? I thought I had had enough of all that in the past 15 years, but seeing her again brings back painful memories and memories I would love to bury in the past.

“It's been 15 years,15 years of no communication, 15 years of being divorced, and now you want to talk? What exactly do you want to talk about?”

“About Us.” She said with teary eyes, “Micheal, you need to know how sorry I am. I know my actions have caused you great pain, but all I need is a chance to right my wrongs. Let me fix this.”

The old me would have fallen for those teary eyes, I would have embraced her and wiped her tears but it's not going to work on me this time, I know she can be tricky and unpredictab

    Michael's POV“Hey man, is everything alright? You don't sound good.” jayden said through the phone.I sighed and replied, “I don't know what or how to feel, man. I thought I got it all figured out. Besides, did you know Kate was in town? I was shocked when I got a text from her, she wasn't looking good when I saw her.”“You met with her? Why? I mean…When?” Jayden asked, with a voice laced with curiosity.“We met tonight. She reached out to me, asking to see. So I decided to give her a chance to explain herself.”“No Micheal, I know nothing about her arrival. So you've got the answers you seek then.”I sank into the nearest chair in my mansion, my head in my hands, “Jayden, It's complicated. Her reasons sound like excuses to me. I gave her everything she had no reason to cheat on me, and to make matters worse, I had no information about the guy she cheated on me with, I don't even know his name.”I could hear Jayden's breath shake through the phone, as if trying to process what I jus

    Jayden's POV I stared at the glass in my hand, the ice cubes inside the drink clinking against one another as I shook the glass back and forth. The loudness of the club was a distraction against the cold betrayal suffocating my chest. Kate's face, her tear stained cheeks, begging for my forgiveness, was still clear in my mind, only for her to crawl back to her ex-husband. I tried to convince myself that I was not interested in what was happening between her and Michael, but it was hard to shake off the sense of being manipulated. I had fallen for her too, fallen for those goddamn tears that seemed to flow so easily when she needed something. Kate was the only woman who made me feel love again after the death of my wife, Ashley's mother. I thought we had something going on until she changed her mind and decided to date my best friend, Micheal. As time went on, Micheal fell in love with her and proposed. It was the worst day of my life. The woman I love got married to my best frien

    Jayden's POV Immediately we entered the hotel room, She pushed me on the nearest chair, I cleared my throat as she pulled at my tie and unbuttoned my shirt, she pulled my trousers along with the boxer making my hard member sprung out. She gasped, her mouth forming an ‘O’ as if she couldn't believe what she's seeing.“You've gotten bigger.” She said with amusement in her voice, licking her lips to wet them properly. “Now let me take care of you.”Before i could say anything, she opened her mouth and dip my cock in it, “Fuck Kate, your mouth is fucking warm.” She started bobbing her head up and down, sucking my dick like her life depended on it. I grabbed the back of her head and made her suck deeper, making her gag on my dick “You like that, right? You like gagging on my dick” By now she had tears slipping out from her eyes and I was so close to my fucking release. “Just like that baby, I'm close…. Ahhh, fuck kate.” I came inside her mouth and she made sure to lick every drop of it b

    Micheal's POVThe beep of my phone broke the silence as I sat in my office sorting through papers. It was a call from an investor, one who had been lingering around for a while but now seemed to be ready to make an offer. The smooth and professional voice on the other end of the line was well recognised to me but I could not help but sense a faint undertone of excitement in the investor's tone. They were happy to talk business…serious business. The conversation went well but I wasn't in the proper mindset to make a decision. I need advice on this.That was when I put a call through to Jayden, the phone kept ringing but he didn't pick. I called again, the phone rang for a while before I could hear his voice at the other end. "Hey, man. Have been trying to reach you, where are you?"Jayden's voice on the phone was slightly muffled as if he had been obstructed. “I'm at our usual spot, close to the club.”“I've got something to discuss with you.” I said, leaning back in my chair. “I r

    Ashley's POVAs I walked towards my room, Uncle Michael's proposal kept bothering my mind. It was a great opportunity, but I feel some type of way about it after everything that happened in paris. He didn't have to say it. He could have simply ignored me like everyone else, but he didn't. Having a big shot like him as an investor after everything I've done was like a triumph…a big deal to my company. But I couldn't let myself show it. I couldn't let myself get too carried away. Not now. Not when I was still mad at him for his actions towards me in Paris.I shut the door and collapsed onto my bed, still clutching my phone. Austin had been here the whole time, just sitting with me, but I knew he wasn't just here to pick his stuff up, He was sitting with me to catch up and he always had the perfect way of getting me to talk. I couldn't let that happen today.“So,” I began, standing up to lean against my desk, “Uncle Micheal offered to invest in my company.”That caught his attention, an

    Micheal's POV The day has been good so far. The investors had arrived at the office, and the meeting had gone smoothly. They were pleased with the numbers, the course of the firm, and, of course, my management. Everything was according to plan. After they had left, I sat alone in my office, reviewing the final details of the contracts before me, content with what I had done.My office remained quiet. I leaned back in my chair and sipped on my coffee as the weight of the day rested upon my shoulders. Barely in time before I was able to resume attention on paperwork, my office phone rang and brought me back out of my thoughts. It was my new assistant.“Mr Michael, there’s someone here to visit you. A young woman named Ashley. Should I let her in?” My assistant's voice over the telephone line.I blinked in surprise, Ashley? She never told me she was coming. “Let her in.” After a minute, the door opened, Ashley stood in the doorway, but she didn't look ok. She looked disturbed, sad.

    Ashley's POVAs I pulled my car into the driveway, I couldn't help but think about what happened in Uncle Micheal's office. I only went there to talk, I needed someone to talk to, and he seemed to be the right person at the moment. I can't talk to my dad about what happened in Paris because he will never forgive me if he finds out. My best friend Austin wouldn't understand either. So Uncle Micheal happens to be the only option left, but I never planned for it to go down that way. I kissed my father’s best friend without thinking. I couldn't help but question myself, Why exactly did I do that? Was it because I wasn't in the right state of mind? Do I need a distraction? Or I possibly feel something for him? Hell no…. It can't be. Me? Have feelings for Uncle Michael? That can never be possible. I shake my head to get rid of the thoughts. He's way older and more mature than me. I care and love him like a father…dats all.But why did something so wrong feel right at the same time? No

I am here to submit my business proposal in Kingston's Technology, one of the biggest companies in New york.” Ashley said out of excitement. “You are welcome, Ashley. You have always been a smart girl, and I know your company will be successful.” I noticed she was bright and cheerful today, like Ashley, have always known. “Seems you are in a good mood today.” She smiled, looking away to hide her blush, “I sort things out with Austin. We are good now. “Oh, that's good. So he really meant that much to you.” I asked out of curiosity.“He’s my best friend. He means a lot to me. Uncle micheal, about what happened the last time…”“Let's not talk about that, i know it’s a mistake, and you weren't in the right state of mind.”I know she didn't mean to do what she did, but I couldn't stop thinking about it since it happened…Hell I couldn't stop thinking about her ever since I laid my eyes on her

    ASHLEY'S POV I woke up to the sound of waves crashing outside. It was very soothing, so much that I found it difficult to get out of bed. so for a moment, I laid there, wrapped up in the warmth of the sheets. I haven't had a good sleep like this in months . It was peaceful, too peaceful.Then I turned over to the other side of the bed, expecting him to be there, but it was empty. Then I perceived it, the faint smell of bacon filled the air. I slipped out of bed and did a little exercise before making my way downstairs.The sight in the kitchen made me pause.Micheal stood shirtless by the counter with his hair slightly messy. He wore grey sweatpants that hung low on his hip, moving around the kitchen as he prepared breakfast. He kept flipping the pancakes like a pro while he had a fresh pot of coffee beside him. The counter was filled with breakfast: bacon, toast, scramble eggs, with some fresh fruits on the side. I leaned against the doorway, crossing my arms against my chest. “S

    I glanced at Ashley beside me as I drove past the city. She was staring at the window as she drew small patterns on the glass. She seemed deep in thought, and her shoulders were tense. Clearly, she looked exhausted, but aside from that, I could see something else, something she's trying hard to bury within her. I knew she was going through a lot after the incident at the club, which is why I decided to do this for her. It will serve as an escape from reality.I placed my palm on her hands, my fingers brushing it lightly. “Trust me, Ash, you're going to love the place.”She turned her head towards me, “You said that earlier, but I still don't know where you're taking me.”I smiled “Now where's the fun in ruining the surprise.”She smiled softly while shaking her head “You and your surprises“Uncle Micheal, why are you doing all this?” She asked suddenly as she looked at me with curiosity in her eyes.My gaze found hers for a second before I returned my focus back to the road. “Doing wh

    ASHLEY'S POV It was another busy day as I stepped out of the house. The sun was really bright, bright enough that it could be blinding. It did no help in shaking the heaviness in my chest. I barely had any sleep last night. My mind was filled with thoughts. I kept convincing myself that it's just gonna be another day, that nothing had changed, that I was still the same person I was before the incident at the club. I had a lot of work waiting for me at the office, and I had to be early if I wanted to catch up on it.I slid into my car, adjusted my seat belt and gripped the steering wheel before finally starting the car, the soft sound of the car oddly calmed my nerves, and as I pulled out of the driveway, I place my focus on the road. Observing the traffic lights, street signs, and the route to my company. Few minutes later I arrived at the company, by the time I stepped in, everything was moving fast already, my employees were moving in and out of their various offices, some were a

    ASHLEY'S POV The ride back home felt like the longest one of my life. My mind kept taking me back to what happened last night, everytime I tried to forget about it, it came right back at me with more force. Our conversations at the club, the laughter, the familiar faces, All those memories kept me going, distracting me from the bad memories i had about that night.Then there were the darkest memories. The guy I saw at the restroom, his filthy hands on me, the smirk on his face, the fear I felt , and the relief that washed through me when Uncle Michael barged in. He saved me, he protected me and I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude. But a part of me felt guilty. Was it wrong to feel so safe in his arms? Was it wrong to want and desire the very person who was once like a father to me?As the car pulled to my house. I forced myself to be focused. I couldn't afford to look weak, not in the presence of my father. Uncle Micheal had assured him that I was fine but I knew my father

    ASHLEY'S POV I woke up to a serious headache this morning. My head kept banging as if I'd hit it on a wall . I looked around me, and nothing looked familiar to me. This wasn’t my apartment. What happened? How the fuck did i get here? Then it hit me… Austin's party, the drinks, they all went through my mind but nothing felt real. I sat up slowly, grabbing my head, hoping the act would ease the pain in some way. My body felt heavy as if I was still trapped in that party.Suddenly the door opened slightly. I glanced up, wiping my hands over my face to get rid of the dizziness. Then I saw Uncle Michael. Wait..why is he here? He stepped inside, walking slowly towards me, I noticed he was holding a glass of water and white pill in his hand.“Here, This should help you with the headache.”I collected the water and swallowed the pill, the cool liquid wetting down my dry throat.“Uncle Michael, where am I? What happened last night? And why are you here?” “You are at my guest house. I

    MICHEAL'S POV “Man, this is huge,” Jayden said, laughing as he clicked his glass against mine. “You just signed a deal worth millions of dollars, This is the kind of move that changes everything.”I grinned, leaning back in my car seat. “Yeah, it's a big one. Can't believe I pulled it off. I couldn't have done it without you, though. You convinced Mr Willaims to listen in the first place.”Jayden chuckled and waved it off. “You handled all the tough stuff. All I did was make the intro. But hey, you know you need to celebrate this tonight, right? “Of course”, I said, anticipating the night ahead. “Let's hit the club and celebrate. You deserve it, Jaden.”Jayden hesitated, his eyes flickering for a second. “Actually….I think I'm gonna pass tonight. I promised Ashley I would be home by the time she gets back from her friend's birthday party. It's Austin's birthday.”I nodded, understanding his priority. It wasn't that I didn't get it, but a part of me felt a pang of jealousy. Ashley i

After all the craziness at the surprise party, it actually felt good to kick back and celebrate, and what better place could we do that than the club? Sophie, Jade, and I were getting ready at my place, and the energy was high. We were all excited, looking forward to Austin's party tonight.I looked at myself in the mirror, checking out different outfits to see which one would make me look my best. My closet seems to be against me tonight because anything I choose is either too plain or too revealing. “I can't decide, guys.” I said, looking down at the pile of clothes on my bed.Sophie, who had been rummaging through my wardrobe like it was her own personal shopping mall smirked at me, pulling out a tight, backless dress that was nothing short of scandalous, “You are wearing this”I raised an eyebrow. “Really? That's what you want

Ashley's hurt? How come? But then, as soon as I opened the door, the scene in front of me stopped me dead in tracks.“Surprise” they all yelled in unison. “Happy birthday Austin”The words echoed in my head, but they felt real. I couldn't process what was happening. The room was filled with colourful balloons, and the scent of cake and candles filled the air. There were decorations everywhere, Gifts were arranged in neat piles, each one labelled with letters of my name on it. Ashley, Jade, Sophie. They were all standing there smiling wide, sharing glances at each other, looking completely normal.Hold on.. Ashley!

    Austin's POV I leaned against the kitchen counter, stirring a pot of pasta, my mind filled with thoughts of my birthday, which is coming up tomorrow. I would be surrounded with closest friends, celebrating the only way I knew: loud, wild, and filled with fun. The plan was to have a small party at my place, but after that, we were heading to the club at night. I could feel the excitement building up in my chest. It has been stressful planning everything, and I need to relieve some stress. I can't wait to let loose and have some real fun.As those thoughts of celebration crossed my mind, my phone rang. It was my parent again. They were in London on a work trip, and they had been calling me almost every day to check up on me, asking about life, my work, and everything. I know they meant well, but sometimes, it’s a bit too much. I wiped my hands on a towel, picked up the call, and left it on speaker before answering. “Hey, Mom, Dad.” I said with a cheerful voice but clearly distracte
