Leena's POV

“How have you been, Leena? I had no idea what happened to you. I haven't even heard from you since we met.” Veronica said as I placed the glass of wine on the table.

“Believe me, everything happened so fast and right now, I can't explain what really happened.” I said rashly and she smirked.

“But you are back for real, right?” She asked anxiously.

“Yes, I'm. I don't have anything to do outside of the States.” I assured her with a warm smile.

“Meanwhile, Jasper has grown big since the last time I saw him.” I said as our eyes narrowed to the children who were playing in the living room.

“Hello??? My son is four years old now.” She reminded me and I smiled.

“Yeah, I know. My children were just one or two years old when we departed.” I said cryptically.

“So, what's the plan?” She asked, raising an anxious brow.

“Nothing much. I will try to settle down and fix a little thing.” I said and we chuckled at the same time.

“Well… I'm staying around here now. My husband purchased the m

    Leena’s POVI couldn’t sleep the entire night even when it felt like I was sleeping. My thoughts ran wild and I felt bad.He was also feeling it, I assume.We have been married for more than five years yet we hadn’t consummate our marriage.He never asked for it and I also didn’t make advances.Before he asked, it meant he really wanted it.“Momma, why are we eating so early?” JC asked as I placed their meal on the table.“That’s because momma has other plans today. Make sure you finish up and head back to your room.” I instructed them warmly.“What about Dad, isn't he having breakfast with us?” CJ asked, raising an anxious brow.“He will but he is still in bed and I can't afford to wake him up.” I lied blatantly and my eyes wouldn’t stop blinking.“But you woke up too from our sleep.” JC reminded me, sounding annoyed.They didn’t expect me to wake Sean up when I hadn't gotten an answer to his request.Obviously, I was running away from him and also trying to articulate what I really

    Leena's POVI freshened up when I got home and wore sexy nightwear. I used my regular nightwear jacket to cover myself while I waited for my man.As soon as the bedroom door pulled open without a knock, I knew he was the one.“Babe…” I pulled the jacket and stared at him flirtatiously but to my surprise, he wasn't the one.“Momma, are you shooting a movie or something?” CJ and JC walked into the bedroom and I quickly covered myself.I was embarrassed.“What are you doing in my room? You could have knocked! That's the ethic.” I reminded them, sounding annoyed.“Sorry, Momma. We haven't seen anyone since we returned so we wanted to check if you are home.” JC explained sadly.“It's alright.” I scratched my hair nervously. “I already prepared breakfast and everything you need for the night.” I paused.“Can you leave now?” I asked curling my lips.“Al… right.” They gave me a long look as they slowly walked out of the room.I assume they were wondering why I was wearing revealing nightwear

It also showed that she had moved on from every past tie that she had.I left the bathroom with a smile on my face, she was still sleeping soundly before I left the bedroom.I turned on the gas and started preparing breakfast.Leena was mine now.“She loves me. She loves me.” I continued dancing as I placed the frying pan on the gas.She was my first and I didn't regret doing it with her.With her action, she had cleared my heart and made my love for her increase to its peak.“Dadda!” CJ’s loud voice brought me out of my daze as I faced their corner and placed a finger on my lips.“Your mom is sleeping, don't be loud.” I shunned them lovin

    Leena's POV“So, why did you change your mind? I thought you wanted me completely out of your life since you already saw me as a con artist.” I asked, crossing my arms.We had just finished signing our partnership deal.“Well, I didn't make this decision alone.” She shrugged.“Oh? But at least you recommended me and trusted your child's idea.” I rolled my eyes.“You aren't my child and no, I didn't recommend you.” She said seriously.“Then, what happened?” I asked, curling my lips.“The board of directors and shareholders were shocked at how you made trillions out of the penny we gave out.” She began.“They saw you as a serious and business-minded person, so we all decided to partner with you.” She explained to me meticulously and I sighed.“You could have at least changed their mind since you aren't comfortable with me being here.” I scoffed.“Oh really? This is business, Mrs. Leena. I take emotions and pleasure out of it.” She stood.“Even if you were my child, I wouldn't coax you i

A lot happened in the past and I felt so bad leaving my pre-teens and toddler in a stranger's arm.” She explained sadly.“Kelvin had a rough past especially since he has been sick for a long time,” I informed them sadly but smiled quickly since it was all in the past.“My little boy has suffered so much and it's time to make up for it.” My father teased while caressing Kelvin's hair.“How about school, is he done with high school?” My mother asked anxiously, staring at us.“High school?” I smirked.“I'm in University, Mom!” Kelvin said in a high-pitched tone and they almost gasped.“Are you serious? So fast?” My father had an approving smile on his face.“Yeah, I'm

Show it to me.” I urged him with my eyes and serious voice.“You came for an update right? Hold on, when Samuel comes he will give you what you want.” He shunned me.“Hubby, are you mad at me? What did I do wrong?” I asked him dolefully as I tried to reach for him but he set a boundary.“I'm not mad at you. I'm just busy.” He said shortly.Why was he suddenly cold towards me? Did I do something wrong and didn't take note of it?“Are you trying

    Sean's POV “Can you explain to me what you are doing right now?” I asked her, trying to control my temper as we sauntered out of the mansion together.“I said I'm leaving for a short period, babe.” She cried out like one who was being deprived of their right.“Last week, you visited your parents and spent three days there. As if that isn't enough, you want to take the kids and relocate to your parents' house. Is that the right thing to do?” I questioned her curtly.“It is the right thing to do, judging that I wasn't able to enjoy my past with my parents.” She rambled with words impatiently.“What about me? How about I also relocate back to my parents' house?” I questioned her sarcastically and she paused.“Babe!” She called out to me anxiously.“What?” I exhaled heavily. “We are already married, Leena and you are no longer a kid. Your parents should live their own lives now.” I paused.“My parents also want us to live with them but I declined because it didn't feel like the right thi

She visited her parents.” I informed her calmly.“Her parents? We haven't seen them, have we?” My father's voice found its way into our conversation. He was sitting in the armchair.“I mean during your wedding, she had no one but her lawyer to stand for her.” My father added.“Yeah, I told you her parents were dead right? But somehow, we got a lead that her parents are still alive and fortunately, she crossed paths with them.” I paused, scratching my hair.“It's a long story, but she needs some time to reunite with them.” I rashly ended the conversation before it took a route of no return.“That’s great. Maybe on a good day, we will visit them and get to know them.” My mother suggested warmly and I nodded my head.“Someone whose parents don't know about me, I guess.” Inwardly, I said to myself.“Alright.

    “[BREAKING NEWS: Mr. and Mrs. Sean were the victims of an explosion around the isolated part of the city, the cause of the explosion is yet…]” Almost all the television, radios, and phones were announcing the same news. “How did this happen?” Leena's mother rushed into the emergency ward. “How come? How did something like this happen to both of them?” Leena's father asked anxiously as anxiety lingered in his eyes. “That shouldn't be our problem now.” Sean's father cried out. “What do you mean?” Leena's mother stared at him intently. “Only Sean's body was found at the explosion scene.” He paused. “Leena…. Leena…” He continued stuttering. “What are you implying?” Leena's father's lips started trembling. “Leena's body wasn't found.” Sean's mother spilled bluntly and the latter gasped in shock. It felt like they were electrocuted as they didn't speak or move for minutes. “Leena!!! How? Why?” Leena's mother wailed as she rambled with several questions. “We don't know. Sean barely

Is something going on?” He asked anxiously, raising a brow. “Everything is fine.” I placed a hand on his shoulder. “Thank you for everything. From beginning till the end, I truly appreciate it.” I said, forcing out a smile. “Thanks for trusting me.” He said courteously with a short bow. “Did you bring the car and prepare all that I told you to?” I asked him impatiently and he sighed. “I can't believe I did something like this.” He paused. “I trust you are sending this over to someone else, if not, I will blame myself forever if something happens to you.” He said sadly and I smirked. “I'm just trying to set things the way they were in the past. It's never your fault.” I assur

Where is James?” I fired at him anxiously. “He is not around at the moment.” He said, lowering his face to the ground and I knew he was lying. “I know that brat is in there. James! James! James!” I started banging at the gate again in anger. “Open this gate and let me in!” I barked at his face. “I'm sorry but I was asked not to open the gate for you.” He said randomly. “Harry, your boss is doing something evil! He is ruining my family. Will you still try to protect him till the end?” I asked him, raising a brow and he shook his head. “Please, leave Mrs. Sean.” He said coldly. “I can't believe you. All of you are evil. I won't let any of you go scout-free.” I cried bitterly. “Mrs. Sean, please leave n

    Leena's POV “James! James, you bastard! Come out here and atone for your sins!” I screamed while banging the gate. This had been going on for more than two hours yet he wasn't in sight. Was he ignoring me? He ruined Sean. He ruined my family and gave us sleepless nights. Why was he so wicked? “How did we get here?” I cried out with all my veins showing through my neck as I collapsed to the ground. As my eyes closed, old memories rushed through like adrenaline. I couldn't control or help it as I cried profusely. Sharp Flashback - “You're here.” He walked confidently to my corner and handed me a bunch of roses. I smiled. “Wow, thank you.” I gushed. “Come with me.” I took his hand as he walked me up to the round table. My eyes met with the plate on the table, a small cupcake was in the center and the chef designed a love shape around it. At the sides of the shape, there was a short note. “Be Mine Forever.” I was taken aback, flustered, and shocked. “James…’’ I trailed of

    Leena's POV “Officer, I can't believe you fell for those words he stated. He is lying!” I couldn't control my emotions as I yelled at the police officer in anger. “What do you mean?” He scoffed. “I know the man I married. James would and will never have any twins!” I said seriously. “But he showed us evidence and everything. He also had an alibi that made it hard for us to point him as the victim.” He rashly explained to me. “Am I blind or something? How come for so many years when I was married to him, I never heard of or seen his so-called twin brother? Why are you falling for these lies? I mean, you can even ask around to know if this is true!” I rambled with words in annoyance, firing several questions at them. “We are sorry, Mrs. Sean. We have to follow this case slowly. Besides, he has good connections and I'm afraid of losing my job.” He said skeptically and I smirked. “What? So, you are trying to save your head rather than bringing justice to me? Where is my detective? W

I told you not to insert bullets in the guns as we are only going to scare them!” I reminded them in disgust. “We are sorry boss but…” they trailed off when the door of the warehouse made a loud noise. My father approached us with a deep mischievous laugh. “I told them to do so.” He spilled bluntly and my jaw dropped. “What?” It was too hard to believe and the only way to protect my emotion was to act clueless. “I told them to pull the trigger if Leena or her so-called husband refused to hand over my grandchildren.” He informed me seriously and I scoffed in disbelief. “Father!” I cried out sadly as a big frown took residence on my face. “What?” He gave me a scornful look. “We can't afford to hurt anyone or play dirty.” I reminded him seriously. “This is my g

Isn't it taking too long?” Her mother panicked.“It is. It is but I can't barge in, can I?” I raised an anxious brow.“How did this happen? You were impatient over the phone so we didn't get the full details.” Her father's voice came up, staring at me.“We were at home, thinking about how to tighten our safety since I wasn't comfortable with the kidnap case.” I began.“I was shocked when I heard he had broken the mansion gate with his men.” I sighed heavily.“Everything happened so fast and it was only the sound of the gun that brought me back to earth,” I explained meticulously and they shook their heads in disbelief.“That brat has grown so bold!” Her mother gnashed her teeth.“He pushed my daughter to this state, does he thin
