Julian's pov"So, I just read it that Alex is looking for a nanny online on his page," Kim said as she joined me and her sister in the living room. "A nanny? What happened to Ava?" Mirabel raised a curious brow. "I have no idea, sis. I can't even bring myself to call her because of what happened the last time. She knew Daniel was with her yet she lied about it," Kim muttered, rolling her eyes in disgust. I sighed, running my hands in my hair. "This is our only chance to get a revenge on Alex. The nanny issue is the only way out.""What do we do now, babe? We need to get a revenge on Alex, and make him suffer for everything he has done to us. We can't give him another chance to come hurt us again," Kim said with worry in her voice and face. I was quiet because i didn't even know what to do. My mind was just blank due to anger, and fury. Thinking about Ava made me very sad and heartbroken. To think, I went through all that pain and trauma because of her in Alex's hands yet she left
Ava's povEver since Alex told me I was pregnant, I didn't even know how to feel. Yes, I was happy but I was scared at the same time. I was scared of what the future holds for me and my unborn child. What if everything takes another turn, and Alex abandoned me with the baby. Where would I start from? I needed to do something about that fast, I needed a job or some amount of money in my account that would give assurance that my unborn child's future is safe in my hands. Alex was with the kids so I was alone in the room. Then, I thought about Julian and I wondered how he would feel if he knows about my pregnancy. Would he be disappointed or sad? Damn, to think I was actually falling in love with him. How did Alex even come into this picture? Am I in love with Alex or this was just some charade?A lot of thoughts filled my mind which made me not to sleep. I placed my hand on my belly, and smiled again. I could scream loudly for the whole world to hear, few months to now, I will be ho
Alex's povAva was fuming in anger which made my heart ache, I thought she would be happy to have someone who will assist her with things."Babe, let me see you privately. Mirabel, please make yourself feel at home," I said with a forced smile. She followed me to the guest room with a frown on her face. I never knew it would make her so angry, i know Ava to be a very gentle and peaceful person. "Why are you not happy that she is here? I brought her here to help you with the kids. You don't have to be angry about this, babe," i said softly.Ava sighed, running her hands in her hair. "I'm not mad about you bringing her into our room, Alex. The annoying thing is you didn't tell me before you decided to bring her in.""I'm sorry, baby. I don't mean to offend you in any way. Please, accept my apologies," I apologized sincerely. She smiled, but I knew it was a fake one. "Let's go and see her. Be nice to her this time, Ava. I'm doing this because of you and the kids.""It's alright, babe.
Julian's povKim has been very quiet since we came back from that woman's house. I was very shock to my bones when I saw the dead bodies right in front of me. The scene still replayed in my head because it was very fresh. Kim cried in my arms for about thirty minutes before she finally calmed down.She promised and sweared to make sure Alex suffers for everything he had done. I promised to fight for her, and her sister was in his house helping us already. She called some of Dominic's men to come clean the house and bury the people that died. I had never seen Kim in such manner before, she was shaking like something would happen to her too.I shook my head, trying to erase the feelings from my mind as I grabbed a beer in the fridge. "This is your drink, and you need to stop thinking about this issue."Kim collected the drink from me, with a sigh escaping her lips. "I can't just stop thinking about it, Julian. This thing is messing with my mental health. Who knows where Gabriel is? I
Ava's povI woke up alone on the bed with a letter from Alex saying he went for an urgent business meeting, and he will see me later. The thought of him brought a smile to my face. He has been so caring, and supportive which i really appreciate. The only thing that bothered me was the new nanny he brought home. I had observed something about Alex anytime he sees her. It was always like all his body system changes, and the only thing he would like to do was to devour her. Could it be that Alex liked her, or something was between them? I needed some kind of answers because I didn't feel safe with the fact that she was here. I debated on what to do which included telling her she has to leave this job, and I would pay her off. Her presence in the house just gave me a chill feeling I didn't like. Rushing into the bathroom to take my bath. After bathing, I wore black shorts and Alex's shirt which looked very big on me, but I liked it anyways. "Good morning ma'am," Mirabel greeted with
Alex's povAva was quiet for a long time with tears in her eyes. "Baby, please say something. Just say a word, and don't make me die of your silence.""I'm just emotional, babe. This is so huge, i didn't even expect this. I will marry you, Alex," Ava said, nodding her head. I sighed in relief as everyone clapped their hands. "Thank you so much for accepting to be mine," I muttered, placing the ring on her left hand's middle finger. The workers in the restaurant began to play music in the background. "I love you, baby. Thank you so much," I whispered into Ava's ear. "I love you too," she whispered back, looking into my eyes. I felt so loved, and so weak in my knees just because of her stare. This woman meant the world to me, and we were happy before Julian came. The thought of Julian made me held Ava tight like she would disappear from my sight. She leaned in to give me a kiss on my cheek. "Tonight is going to be mad long," she muttered. That word alone made me groan, and my membe
Julian's pov"Oh my goodness! What did Mirabel just do?" Kim screamed from the living room. My heart skipped a beat, and I went to join her. "Why did you scream like that? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" I demanded, frowning as I sat beside her.Kim handed me the phone, my jaw dropped in shock when I saw what was on the screen. "Tell me this is not real, she fucking had sex with Alex! We told her to seduce not fuck him."Kim sighed, trying to calm herself but I knew she was fuming in anger. "I will call her, and she needs to be here right now. How could she have sex with the same man that killed her husband?"I shook my head. "I mean, that's fucking crazy. I don't even expect all this from Mirabel, she should be irritated with the sight of him. This sex video and pictures is something I don't approve of.""You get my point. How could she bring herself so low? We are trying to kill this man, what if she gets pregnant for him or something. I'm so pissed right now," Kim said,
Ava's povAfter the PTA meeting in the children's school, I was already tired, but I was really proud of their performance. It was a nice thing when your children performs well in a school. "You can go home, Max. I have to go somewhere," I said when I stopped in front of the car. Max's shook his head. "I'm afraid, I can't do that. Boss told me to bring you back home after the PTA meeting.""Take the car back home, and tell your boss I went to see someone. I'm not a fucking child!" I yelled at him. He raised his hands in surrender, and entered the car. I walked to the gate as I ordered Uber. Max exchanged glances with me, and stopped the car. "You can still change your mind and hop in, ma'am. I don't feel comfortable leaving you here all by yourself," Max said. "Get the fuck off my face!" I yelled, feeling irritated already. He drove off, and I sighed in relief. That would be one thing I wouldn't accept from Alex, controlling my life. The Uber finally arrived, and I entered. The
Alex's pov "We have to go, babe. I need to be at the event, and you have to accompany me too," Jordan, my wife insisted. I sighed, running my hands in my hair. Why did the event have to take place in America? I wasn't ready to face my past again. "Baby, I know you have a lot of memories there, but we need to be there. The minister invited us to this party and it will be very disrespectful to ignore," She said, trying to make me agree. I raised my hands up in surrender. "Okay babe, I have no choice than to say yes to you. We will take off tomorrow morning."She hugged me tight, wrapping her arms round my waist and gave me a kiss. "Thank you baby. I will go pack our things now."I watched her run upstairs, shaking my head. She was always excited going to the parties, and events. I loved that about my wife, she was very energetic. We got married four years ago after a lot of up and downs. I relocated to London after the issue with her brother, and I built a life for myself here. I
Ava's povThe children problems has been a sort of headache to me and my husband. We raised them with so much love, yet the only way they could repay us was by causing trouble everywhere. "Mommy, why are they not downstairs for dinner?" Daisy asked, raising a curious brow as I set the table with the chef and my kitchen assistant. I knew she was referring to her older siblings. Diamond didn't like her that much, but she was the apple of her brother's eyes. "Can you please go and call them to come have dinner? You can tell your brother alone and he will pass the information to diamond" I asked politely. She nodded happily, running upstairs to call Aiden. Getting to know that Diasy was Julian's biological child was still a shock to me. I didn't know how that happened. He was telling me about how we had something together when we were drunk one night, but I didn't even remember anything. Our marriage was filled with a lot of bliss and happiness. We got married two months after he pr
Julian's povTen years later. The children had caused trouble again, because I didn't know why the hell I was called from my office just to get an invite from their school because of their bad deeds. I was fuming in anger when their principal was talking."Mr Black, this form of behavior is not acceptable in our school. Your son, Aiden was caught having sex with a girl in the Janitor's office while the girl, diamond almost killed a guy this morning. All in the same day! I will advise you to talk to them during this one month suspension I'm giving them," The principal said with all seriousness in her voice. I exchanged glances with them, but they only looked away in guilt. They had grown so much just to become rascals. They were just seventeen years old for goodness sake, yet they gave me headache every day. I loved them better when they were younger. How did they even become this way? Was it the money and riches that got into their head? "I'm so sorry, principal for everything th
Ava's povI got no response still, just sounds of people moving around the house. I almost peed on myself from where I stood. It was so crazy, because they didn't even say a word. "Who is here? I need to know what the fuck is going on in my house?" I demanded, taking a deep breath. Nothing again, only the sound of things moving. I got very angry, and kicked the person beside me away. Gasping when I finally saw what was happening. Julian was on one knee with a ring on his hand. I was very captivated with the way the ring glowed. It was so beautiful, and tears filled my eyes immediately. What sort of proposal was this? Julian smiled. "I'm sorry for proposing this way. I just tried to scare you a little bit but I guessed that didn't work. This is me on one knee, babe."I chuckled, wiping my tears. There were people around like Max, Kim and others we got to know here. Some decorations has also been done in like fifteen minutes. The sight in front of me was very beautiful, and I than
Ava's povOur new place was very nice, and I loved the fact that we had finally left Mexico. It had a lot of memories that I actually didn't want to remember again. America was my home now. A new place with my man, and children. I was helping the kids arrange their things when Daniel rushed into the room. He exchanged hugs with the kids, and they were so happy to see each other. That was when I realized his mother was here. He hugged me too. I was happy to see him as well. I left the kids to do whatever they wanted, and proceeded downstairs to welcome Kim. I knew Julian wasn't happy to have her here, but I was the one that invited her. We had this plan between us, because I wanted to know if Julian truly loved me. Kim would seduce him, and we wanted to know if he would want to continue any form of relationship with her. As I alighted from downstairs, they were already having a heated conversation. Julian was so carry away, and he didn't even know I was there. "Ava, my darling fr
Julian's pov"You guys should go to bed, and stop disturbing your mother," I half yelled at the kids who played on our bed. They were just too troublesome, and Ava was getting tired. "But, we want to play with you. This is our last night in Mexico, dad. Let's have fun!" Aiden yelled with excitement. "We have had enough fun already. Mom is tired, and she needs to rest. Do you guys want to hurt your younger sibling?" I asked, trying to guilt strip them. Diamond grabbed Aiden's hand. "We have to go to bed. Let's allow mom to rest okay," she whispered into his ear. Aiden nodded reluctantly, and they got down. "We can have more fun tomorrow, guys. I just need to rest, and I love you so much too."Their mouth curved into a smile now. "We love you too, mom and dad. You guys should sleep well," they both said, and left the room. I sighed while Ava chuckled. "Raising two kids is not easy. Those two are just too troublesome," She said, shaking her head. I nodded in agreement,and I laid be
Alex's povThey finally left, and I sighed in relief. I had finally surrendered everything to them. There was no point in fighting anymore. I should be grateful that they didn't even kill me. I would go after my kids later. My health was all that mattered to me at this point. I was scared of dying, I still wanted to live my life. Jordan walked towards me, and I smiled. "They finally left, huh? How are you doing now?" She asked, raising a curious brow. I just smiled sadly, tapping the couch for her to sit. Jordan sat beside me, staring straight into my eyes."I'm good, Jordan. I just don't have any choice, but to surrender to this people. I need to take care of myself first, and I'm tired of living this life," I replied, playing with my fingers. She placed her hand on my lap, smiling. "Your decision is right, Alex. You need to take a break from everything. That's the right thing to do. I'm proud of your decision."I placed my hand on hers, feeling my heart filled with so much joy.
Ava's povWe finally finished eating dinner, and I told the kids to go watch movie in the cinema. They were really happy to go watch their favorite cartoon, and not going to bed soon. "Why did you tell them to go watch movie, babe?" Julian asked, raising a curious brow."To keep them occupied before Max gets here. I'm going with you to see Alex," I replied with a shrug. His eyes widened, and he pulled me back. "What do you mean by you are going with me to see Alex? Why do you want to see him?" "I just want to go with you, Julian, just let me go with you," I pleaded. He nodded reluctantly, and there was silence. That was when I thought about it. Why did I really want to go see Alex with him? I had no idea why, but I wanted to go. I had call Max to come stay with the kids, and he has arrived.We said our goodbyes to them, and left to see Alex. My heart kept pounding in my chest on our way there. I didn't know what was next for Alex or us. I was very sure that Julian didn't know ei
Julian's pov"Max, go pick the kids from school and take them to the park. I need to take Ava to the hospital for checkup, and I don't want them to be in the house alone," I said, sipping my drink. He nodded, and I smiled. He worked for me now, I paid him one million five hundred thousand dollars. I now control all the affairs of Mafia in America and Mexico. The only thing I was trying to do was to stop the killings happening. A criminal can be tortured, or stripped off his properties but no body must be killed. That policy has been going on in the Mafia world in both countries. Everything has also been going smoothly. I finally got to know where Alex was, and I knew he was unconscious too. The guy turned out to be my long distance cousin, and he agreed to hand Alex to me after a lot of conversations. "I sent fifty thousand dollars into your account for the kids and yourself too. Be careful, Max. We have enemies out there," I warned. "That's for sure, boss. The kids are safe wit
