Veronica's husband Jeremy who was also in the living room heard the question and stood up from his seat looking at Mel and truth be told, he also saw the ring and it was diamond. Where would his beloved shy and quietsister-in-lawget such an expensive ring?She left the house about five hours ago going to look for work but now, she came back looking like she was crying and on top of it she had a diamond ring on her finger?“This ring?”Melissa looked at the ring which was a reminder that her life wasruined andshe couldn't help but shed a tear.Veronica who was observing her little sister's actions saw the tear fall from her eyes and with a worried look she said,“Mel tell me what happened why are you crying and where did you--”Veronica was cut off as Melissa pried her hands away from her running up to her room.“Mel!”Veronica was about to run after her
"Hey good morning." She heard her sister's voice. She sat up yawning alittle and nursing her headache while her sister handed her a hot cup of creamy coffee. "Will you tell me what happened to you last night?" her sister asked.Melissa sighed about to say nothing when her phone rung, it was her husband calling.He had saved his number in her phone yesterday when they were on the date.She looked at the phone with an uninterested look then decided to ignore it.He literally forced her to marry him yesterday and was now calling? For what? To taunt her, not a chance she was going to make sure she ignores him.She cut the call then put the phone on silent mode."Are you going to tell me?" Her sister asked worriedly. Melissa was the only famil
No one had ever given her flowers before, not even her beloved ex!This warmed her frozenheart andshe lightly smiled at the flowers.Kadenwho was watching her like a hawked almost drooled at how beautiful she looked especially with that dazzling smile.She was wearing a red figure huggingknee-lengthoff shoulder dress that complemented her perfect hour glass structure and made her look like the hottest model in the world.Thethree-inchblack high heels also added to the sexiness andKadenfelt like he was going wild.Her curly black hair had been placed in a messy but stylish bun with a little strands framing her cute face.Her lips were in a small shade of red lipstick and her eyelashes were curled with abitof mascara. She looked perfect in h
Melissa was speechless. So the reason he forced her to marry him was because he wanted her to be his wife and not to punish her for slapping him?If so then, why didn't he approach her in a nicer way?Maybe she would have been kind enough to actually give him a chance and notdespisehim the way she did.“If you really like me then why didn't you just say it rather than forcing me to marry you?”she smacked his chest again.It seems her hands worked as fast as her mouth did.She was not only good at talking without filters but also good at smacking people.Note to selfKaden, in the future, never ever make your wife angry otherwise instead of chasing the kids around with a cooking spoon, she will be chasing you!With a heavy sigh, heopenedthe back door of the car then took thebouquetand her purse putting it there and c
“Mel, are you at least going to tell me what happened to you yesterday, and why you suddenly have a husband?”This was the first thing Veronica asked Melissa the moment the latter stepped foot inside the house after coming from the date.Veronica was just a concerned elder sister who was worried that her little sister had gotten herself involved with people she shouldn't have.Any normal elder sister would be worried when they see their little sister come back home with a ring on her finger claiming that she was married.“Sis I already told you, I got married.”Melissa who was slowly letting go ofKaden's mistake said to her sister in a tired voice.She was tired of telling her sister the same thing over and over again.“I know you told me that, but at least tell me who you got married to and why you got married without even telling me about it or
“Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!”Melissa repeatedly hit her head against the soft fluffy pillow, once she was in the comfort of her room.How can she be so dumb and ignore the warningKadengave her!“What did I just do,ahhh!!”she screamed in the pillow then continued hitting herself hoping that her empty brain would gain some sense but it was a useless thing to do because the damage had already been done.If she had hit herself with the pillow minutes before she confessed everything, then it would have made some sense but now?“Melissa you are so foolish!”She scolded herself,“how can you put your family in danger like this dang it!”She continued scolding and hitting herself until---“Ah!”she suddenly jumped back in panic when her phone lou
The loud ringing of the phone, woke Melissa up from her peaceful sleep.She groaned in frustration, hating the fact that someone had destroyed her peaceful slumber."Hello?" She picked up the phone without even seen who was calling."Good morning wifey," The person said on the other side.Melissa was too sleepy to even recognised the owner of the voice so she sleepily asked,"Who is this?"Kaden was taken aback. Did he perhaps call the wrong person?No --- this was indeed his wife's number so then---"It's me, Kaden. Did you delete my number?" He asked in a light tone that didn't give away the fact that he was upset.Hearing the name, all the sleep left Melissa's face and she was now wide awake."Oh uh good morning hubby, sorry I was sleeping so I uh." She was at a loss of words not even sure what to respond."It's okay wife, can you press video
“You have to divorce her!” HannahLeighton, Kaden's mom Said to him while she paced around the room.The whole family including lordLeighton,Kaden's grandfather was in the living room having a family meeting.They had found out that the oldest heir had married a woman from a middle class family, which was a taboo thing to do because the poor weren't suppose to mix with the rich.Kaden looked at the pacing woman with a frown on his face,How can she tell him what to do when she hasn't been a present parent in his life?“You don't have any rights over me HannahLeighton,” he responded in monotone shifting his gaze towards his grandfather.He didn't want to look at the woman any longer, just the sight of her made him feel a rush of anger bubble inside of him.He
Seven years later "Celeste!" Melissa screamed on top of her voice and the sound of small foot steps were heard running into the living room. "I swear I'm going to kill you little ---" she let the sentence hung and wobbled towards the living room were celeste was sitting on the couch her face hidden in her father's chest. "What did my baby do now?" Kaden asked in amusement while staring at his wife's big baby bump. She was due in just a week. Four years after their wedding, they had twin boys and now she was pregnant again with baby number four. Not only that but six months after the wedding, brandon finally maned up and asked Leah out and two months later she was pregnant with twins boys. Their relationship was on fast forward because the same day he found out she was pregnant he proposed marriage and a month later they were married. Aiden equally found a girl for himself two years ago but their relationship was on off until last year when she fell pregnant although he didn't
"Oh my God I'm so nervous right now!" Melissa said with a nervous laugh as the hair stylist worked on fixing her hair.It has been six months since she got out of the hospital and she and Kaden were finally getting married.The last six months have been nothing but joy and happiness for both Melissa and Kaden even though they had to struggle with Celeste's constant crying every night but luckily Brandon and Leah, her godparents came to the rescue and acted as her baby sitters including Aiden who was still upset that he wasn't one of the godparent even though they assured they would make him one for their next child.In the last six months, Brandon and Leah's relationship has also grown stronger and anyone looking at them could tell they are in love but sadly neither of them wants to make the first move and admit their feelings.Melissa has tried everything she could to urge Leah to tell him but Every
"Hurry up, places everyone. They will be here any minute!" Veronica urged as everyone scrambled around, putting things in order and making sure everything was perfect for the arrival of the new family members.It's been a month and one week since the incident happened and both mother and baby were getting discharged from the hospital.On that fateful day after the doctor came out of the room, he told them that she was in a critical condition due to loss of blood and needed a blood transfusion immediately.Kaden volunteered to give her blood but sadly, it wasn't a match and worse off the blood bank was empty.Everyone went into a fit of panic searching for blood until they found the perfect match who was non other than Leah.She donated her blood in a heart beat and three weeks later, Melissa woke up from a coma.The doctors didn't let her leave even after she
"Ahhh!" Melissa let out a scream of pain holding her stomach, blood covering her hand."Mel!!" Everyone rushed towards her as Hannah who had just been shot by Leah fell on the floor limp with her eyes wide open."My baby!" Melissa whispered in pain.Kaden looked down and blood was covering one side of the bump while the shorts she was wearing rapidly became wet with blood and what looked like water."Oh no she has been shot and is going into labour!" Aiden said in horror and without thinking twice, Kaden picked her up in his arms, running out of the building with his brothers and Leah following while his father and their men stayed back to make sure Hannah was truly dead."Please save my baby, I don't want to lose her," Melissa whispered again.Sweat mixed with tears trickling down her face,She was in a lot of pain to such an exten
"Let me go you stinking animals!" Melissa said to the men while they dragged her into a large and empty hall-looking room that had about four armed guards moving around on high alert. They had already removed the cloth that was on her mouth and the sac on her head. "I swear I'm going to lose my temper and hit this woman! I don't even know why the boss told us to ungag her. Damn, I hate nagging women," one of the guards complained. "Well, I could make it easier for you if you could just let me go! How dare you even kidnap me! Do you even know who I am!" She yelled at them again and all they did was drag her towards the metallic chair that gracefully sat in the middle of the room. They made her sit on the chair and each one of the guards held her arm making sure she wasn't doing anything stupid. "You all will pay for this, I will make sure you regret doing this to me you
Meanwhile"I'm so excited about this!" Hannah said taking the divorce papers from the table. She flipped through them and the widest grin in history spread across her face, " I will just go take these to court and finalize the divorce, see you guys later, and Kaden make sure you treat Angelica right, she's your wife now and deserves all your love and care," she added giving him a small hug and walking out of the house.Kaden let out a sigh and Angelica just awkwardly stood there not knowing whether to stay or leave."And this woman," Aiden looked at her and she lowered her gaze, "just because he signed those divorce papers doesn't mean he will stay with you. As soon as he finds a way to end all of this, I will personally kick you out!" He threatened and Angelica silently looked on." Don't worry Aiden, she already has a man in her life, she's been forced to do this just like me," Kaden explaine
"Then why did they bring you back knowing full well that she was still lurking around?" Kaden softly spoke cupping her face." Because they want to lure her out plus If I didn't come then you wouldn't have know she was the mastermind now, would you?"" I found out she was the mastermind a month ago and I've been secretly trying to find a way to make her pay!"" Wait you know? But Aiden and Brandon --- they told me that---""I didn't tell them about it," he let go of her cheeks and ran his hand in his hair, "I kept it a secret from them because I didn't want Hannah to ease drop on our conversation and know that I know. Listen baby it's dangerous for you and Celeste to be here, please listen to me and leave. She already told me that if you don't do it then she will kill you for real this time," he pleaded."But I don't want to. What if she tries something that will make you f
"No this isn't true, tell me this isn't true Kaden, tell me that you are lying and that I'm the only woman that you love!" Mel said standing in front of him and shaking him lightly."Miss Young please, I don't have any feelings for you okay, I'm in love with someone else who isn't you, so stop daydreaming! I can never love you," he said looking her dead in the eye but Mel could see that he didn't mean it, she wasn't ready to believe what he was saying."Yes miss Young," the lady Angelica said with a warm smile. She held Kaden's arm and lay on his shoulder, "He is all mine now please stop touching my man, I'm very possessive,"Mel felt all the strength leave her body,She stumbled back and Brandon, Aiden and Leah rushed towards her, giving her support.She looked back at Kaden and for a moment she saw fear and worry flash in his eyes but it quickly dissolved."Son wha
"We are waiting Mel, we deserve to know what happened," Aiden coax and Mel let out a soft sigh sitting on the couch,"Okay, I will tell you everything. That day after Tasha finished pouring gasoline on me and she and her workers left, father and Grandfather came.At first, I thought that they were really going to watch me die because that's what they said that I needed to die in order to catch the criminal.I accepted my fate and they drugged me with chloroform to help me get a 'peaceful' painless death. I passed out and when I woke up, I was in the hospital with Leah at the bedside waiting for me to wake up. I was shocked and thought I was in heaven until grandfather and father in-law came and explained everything to me including how Kaden tortured and killed the people who were behind everything.After they explained, I ask both grandpa and father-in-law to let me come back to you guys but he refused because----" she posed for a while taki
