Jo’s POV
Two days have passed since I received the subpoena stating that I was a witness in an ongoing investigation on Alex Montgomery. After going to Alex’s office I told him that it was best not to see each other until we figured out what the investigation was about.
At first Alex didn’t agree but he knew this was for the best. You can fight something you have no information about.
This morning Damien called me and told me that some Court Officials came to Alex’s apartment and escorted to the City Court where the investigation took place.
So here I was, checking my wristwatch while walking on the City Court hallways. I took a deep breath trying to calm my nerves. I already know what I have to do.
I went to the restroom and washed my hands thoroughly like I always do, going through the plan I have in my head ma

Jo’s POVDonovan let me in first in the room before closing the door. He pointed out a chair before starting the camera to record my answers.“We are here recording the testimony of Josephine Jackson for the case number 258903, the investigation is to determine if Attorney Alex Montgomery broke the conduit and if he is fit to continue to practice Law.My heart skipped a beat hearing Donovan’s words. I couldn’t let this happen, I couldn’t let Alex lose his career and have his name trashed. I had to put on my A game.“You are a taught woman, Miss Jackson,” Donovan said, smiling, bringing me back from my thoughts.I smiled as a response not wanting to give in to a small conversation.
Alex’s POV “Good morning, Mr Montgomery! I heard the kids are coming home for the holidays” Father Thomas greeted me with a smile. “Good morning Father. Yes they are coming home, today. I am actually leaving right now so I can pick them up from the airport” I told him after checking my wristwatch. “Happy Holidays! God bless you and the entire family. See you at Sunday Mass.” Father Thomas told me. “Happy Holidays to you, Father” I said walking towards the door. Since my children were born, I am coming to church every Sunday to light up candles . This is my way to show appreciation for what I have. A life full of light. I checked my watch again while slipping into the car and driving to the airport. I have
Jo’s POV I woke up before sunrise just to look at my beautiful sleeping man. I can’t be more thankful, Alex gave me what I always wanted: a big loving family and four beautiful children. I place a small kiss on his face before slipping off his embrace. It’s weird how much I still love him. After all these years I love him more and more every day. I closed the door trying to not make too much noise and I headed to the kitchen. There were too many things to do and I wanted to go ahead and do them so I could spend time with my babies. I know they are all grown ups but I still see them as babies. I passed Sebastien's door and I stopped for a moment. I will never forget the moment I found him sleeping in the school shack almost frozen. He wrapped his hands around my neck and said “mommy you came”. Me and Alex fought the system and got him, I was about to go and bribe everyone just to give me Sebastien. In a way, Sebastien

Jo’s POV I was sitting by the window enjoying the view. Sunset is my favorite time of the day. I love how all this different shades of orange and blue come together and create such a beautiful picture on the sky. I love how the Sun is coming down leaving the Moon to dominate his kingdom. I moved my eyes from the sky, just to see the people who were leaving their jobs and rushing towards their homes, to their loved ones. I miss having someone to go home too. I closed my eyes when I felt the tears building behind my eyes. After I left the Court today, all I could think about was Him, Mr Montgomery. I close my eyes and shook my head so his image could disappear but his icy glaze it’s stuck in my head, marking my soul. It’s been a while since a man caught my attention. I married my coll
Jo’s POV It was already 10:00 pm when we reached to the club. It was one of those new and deluxe night clubs, where you can get in only if you have an invitation or if you wait on line for good couple of hours. Thank Goodness, Andrea, my high school friend is working in the Business so we don’t have to worry about anything. It is one of those upscale clubs with a trendy modern design and huge dance floor. The music is laud but nobody seemed to care, everyone is dancing and by the look on their faces, they all are having a good time. Andrea told us that it had also two Cocktails and Wine Bars, and a Tropical Outdoor Patio with two Tiki bars. I made a mental note that I want to go to the Tropical Patio, but after today’s events I am really in need of a drink, maybe two… After the waitre
Jo’s POV “Hey, I am Alex…Alex Montgomery”, he told me when he got closer and for I don’t remember how many times today my heart skipped a beat and I forgot to breathe. How can a person you just met look at you and get affected by him. I feel like every time I see him my legs turned to jelly. Damn it Jo, do something, say something, ANYTHING, my inner self is trying to wake me up, but it’s so hard when his eyes are glued to me. “ Hey, I’m Jo. I mean Josephine." I managed to say biting my bottom lip. Damn it stupid, he knows already your name! I think..: He looked at me not saying anything but I could swear I saw an amused sparkle in his green eyes. “Are you leaving so soon?” he said after a second making me even nervous that I was. He is so close that our chest could touch
Alex’s POV I woke up this morning tired after a long night. I only slept three hours because of the girl I was with last night let’s say she knew what she was doing. I really need to start sleeping more. This became my life goal, to sleep more, but every night I go back to be me and full around with some girl that I picked up randomly in a bar or a club… Yeah I am aware of my good looks so I take advantage of that, women always throw themselves at me, if it’s not because of my look, then is definitely because of my money. I got to the point where I stopped hiding the fact that I am a rich, my clothes, my car they all scream expensive. I don’t like to lie, I worked hard to get where I am today, I am one of those lawyers who helps people fight the Big Corporations, well I am the best of

Jo’s POV“Hey, it’s me. Come to Alex’s office. I’ll be there in 5”. I said without waiting for a reply. I looked up to see the skyrocketing building in front of me and I swallowed the lump formed in my throat. Every time I came announced, Alex was not alone. Every single time. I stepped inside the elevator and I could feel my heart skipping a beat.This last week was perfect. The wine party was a success and everyone who came high class, movie stars, singers, press enjoyed the wine. We ended up calling it “The Butterfly from Jackson vineyards” Alex was supportive, caring and everything I wanted. I sighed before entering Kat’s office and I saw her looking up surprised to see me.“Jo, so nice to see you. I heard the wine party was a hit, congrats” Kat said smiling.
Jo’s POV “Finally” I said, relieved to enter my room and remove my jacket. “My feet were killing me” I continued sitting down on my bed “Are you okay?” Alex uttered, bending down, removing my heels. He looked worried so I smiled trying not to think about my parents anymore. “Hmm mmm” I hummed relaxing under his touch. His hands were rubbing slowly my feet taking away the pain. “What happened earlier? I saw you talking with your parents” Alex asked me again. “Nothing, really. My parents apologized, they want us to be a family” I replied shrugging my shoulders. “How do you feel about that?” Alex’s eyes searched mine trying to figure out what was happening in my mind. “I don’t know,” I replied, exhausted, layi
Jo’s POV“Josephine, can we have a word?” my dad’s voice echoed behind me. I clenched my fists knowing this “talks” never end well and he will probably say something to annoy me.“I am here” Alex whispered, squeezing lightly my hand and I nodded. He always knew how to calm down my nerves.“Sure. We can talk in the office” I told my parents as I turned on my heels heading to my grandpa's old library room, which now serves as my office. I did minor work to update the room, but most of it still has grandpa print. Every time I go there it’s like I am going back to my childhood, where I was happy.I sighed because I know what’s going to happen next, I have been here a thousand times before. My paren
Jo’s POVWe walked together downstairs holding hands. Damien gave me a questioning look and I blushed instantly. Did he know what Alex was planning?“Josephine” I heard my grandmother's voice calling me.“Grandma, Grandpa you guys made it. I am so happy you’re here. “I told them, smiling pecking their cheeks.“Josie, of course we are here. We couldn’t miss it. I am so proud of you.. we both are” my grandpa told me as I was trying to fight the tears.“I love what you did with the cellars and with the mansion. I can’t wait to have a tour.` My grandmother was excited to check the surroundings.
Jo’s POVMy heart skipped a beat when I saw him. I missed him so much. Too much time has passed since we've been together and we both changed.Handsome as always he was carrying himself as a god. Dressed in his black suit with his black hair styled perfectly Alex looked at me like he was seeing me for the first time. In a way it actually was. Meeting him changed my life. I was weak but he made me strong, he made me realize that I am the only one in charge of my life.“Hey” I heard him saying taking me all in. I can see everything in his eyes, love, admiration, fear..“Hey stranger” I replied smiling. He bent to kiss me and I could feel those butterflies dancing in my stomach. It’s been long, way too long.“Josephine” my mom voiced
