"Everything about Lake is now Coco. Please, Ezrah, just this once and I will be leaving for Hawaii after," Margo pleaded.

There were some old friends turned models who were pursuing her after her return.

She told them she was dating Ezrah, not expecting to be rejected by him.

When it so happened, she intended to meet them with Ezrah, just to show off.

After that, she would live permanently in Hawaii and whatever happened after would not concern her.

Ezrah went quiet, and when she saw that his hand was reaching for his phone, she feared he was going to call Lake and added,

"I have a guy who loves me, but the truth is, I've always had a crush on you since you saved me back then. Now that I know your heart still belongs to your ex-wife, I won't cause you trouble. I would accept the love knocking on my door, so what do you say?"

Madison had heard Margo continuously reject someone on the phone but never took an interest to ask about it. It seemed to her that Margo was telling the truth.

    Ezrah did not want anything to hinder the progress of these projects and was not amused by Madison’s silence.“Be quick about it, and why have you not told me until now?”Madison pursed her lips before speaking again. “That is because you never wanted to take advantage of Michelle by using these projects.”“That’s not what I mean. The secret garden should still be ready nonetheless. When she left, there was no trace of her except for that diary.”Ezrah recalled how Michelle had slept on the couch downstairs that night, leading him to his insomnia and suddenly took an interest in her handbag.That was where he took the diary from and hid it.He was just trying to get something on her so that if she turned against the contract, he could use it against her, but he never thought he would see the things he saw.“I decided to fulfill everything in it for her soul to rest in peace. Who knew she was just in Los Angeles under a disguised name?” Ezrah’s lips stretched into a remorseful smile.G

    Madison thought over her relationship with Lake. To her, it was pure friendship, and though she never wanted it to end, she never considered the possibility of marriage.“I honestly never saw him that way, and if that had happened, it would have ruined our relationship.”The corner of Ezrah’s lips curled up a little. It was just what he thought, and since Madison was picking on Sebastian’s personality, she was caught up in her own trap.“Then you never loved him as a boyfriend or considered him someone you should spend the rest of your life with. Why was that when he was so fun to be with?” Ezrah asked. Madison was dumbfounded.“I honestly don’t know.”Ezrah equally did not have an answer. If he knew the things about love even a little deeply, he would not have suffered the pain he was in now.“Matters of love are complicated. I’m no expert, and I’m still trying to crack the woman I love, so please get out of my office.”Ezrah was suddenly embittered and helpless. Thinking about Madi

    “Her father said that since I wasn't going to help them, then the marriage had to be contractual until they found a man suitable to help.”Madison was shocked. “So you never meant for it to be a contract marriage?”Ezrah shook his head and said, “I agreed to their terms because I had Piper. I wanted the news about the press to die down so I agreed and forced Zora to sign a prenup.”“Trust me, Ezrah, Michelle knew nothing about it.”“I realized it too late, but how was I not to suspect her when she equally made the demand twice?” Ezrah asked. Madison was rendered speechless as Ezra continued.“I took it on her because I felt it was a plan for her to get something from the Gannons. That was one of the reasons why I treated her the way I did, aside from the fact that she came between me and Piper.”“It was also the reason I kept asking for a divorce, but I still take the blame. I was attracted to her in so many ways than the woman I claimed to love, so I thought it best to be away from h

    Michelle didn't want Ezrah to see them and pulled Coco away, but the latter stopped midway, as their trips to open places like this demanded disguise due to the paparazzi. Both women wore sunglasses, and Coco adjusted hers as she spoke.“Michelle, that is Lake’s sister, Margo. I don’t think Ezrah has anything going on with her.” Coco knew that Michelle had the wrong idea and thought to clear the air before she got all edgy again. Michelle was relieved since she had no idea that Lake had a sister, but her expression was aloof. “What makes you think that I care?”Coco caught sight of someone going into the same store and alerted her.“That is Madison, she’s going towards the same shop. You can ask her.” Michelle shook her head. She believed Coco, but even if she didn’t, to her, it was not right to poke her nose where it didn’t belong. “I don’t care what he does with his life.” “That’s a lie. You are jealous,” Coco exposed her this time. Everything about Michelle showed she was ind

    ‘Ezrah is so happy with your gifts. He had them arranged in his closet and said they would be waiting for your return.’Michelle fumed. It ached her that all her loved ones turned against her, supporting Ezrah.‘He should keep dreaming,’ she texted back and put the phone away.It was just hard for her to get on Ezrah’s nerves nowadays. What an irony?“What is going on?” Coco asked when they were stable in the air. “You look upset.”Michelle wanted to trust that Coco would be on her side this time and let it out.“It’s Ezrah. I just don’t know what to do to upset him. I told him not to speak to me, so he sent me gifts through Madison. I wanted to upset him, so I bought him female clothes, but see what he did with them?” She passed her phone to Coco with a frustrated sigh.Coco laughed after watching the video and reading the words attached to it.“That is a man on a mission. Michelle, just give love a chance for the last time. You could even make it a contract.”Michelle frowned at Coc

    Madison’s jaw almost dropped when she saw the man who had just alighted from the private jet.Sebastian was as good-looking as the first time she saw him and her cheeks reddened. Lake noticed but did not expose her.Sebastian had promised to inform her when he was coming but had arrived without doing so.She did not know whether to be happy or sad about this. “Seb?”A smile met her words when Sebastian reached out and pulled her into his warm embrace. “I miss you, Madison.” She froze in his arms.His words were harmless but sounded very strange to her, equally filling her with unease.Feeling awkward, Madison pulled away. “We spoke on the phone like thirty minutes ago,” she pointed out, not understanding why her breathing felt so erratic.No one ever made her so nervous except Ezrah, since he was her boss and was always cold and aloof.Sebastian was never cold to her, but his presence made her feel strange, even when he smiled.Perhaps it was because of the crush she had on him. She h

    Madison frowned at his question, finding it weird to give an explanation for rejecting a card that bore so much money and wasn’t hers. “It’s yours because you worked for it. I should work for mine too.” When the understanding settled that dealing with an independent woman was a whole new ball game, Sebastian opened the door to the driver's side of the car for her.“Keep it for now and let’s see the house first.” Madison slid the card into her handbag and pressed the start button after Sebastian sat in the passenger seat. They had a lot of chit-chat along the way concerning Sebastian’s work and family before reaching the mansion. In order to not worsen matters, Sebastian ensured to keep matters concerning his desire to have her in Los Angeles for a while hidden. "I'm impressed,” Sebastian said after getting out of the car. The car Madison purchased was his style. Not only that, she did not compromise on security, but there were no maids. “How do you get the house cleaned?” He ask

    The shock in Madison’s eyes was evident. “What?” If Sebastian was joking, it did not look funny.She agreed that she had a crush on him, but who told him he could just use it to his advantage or against her? Was that how these rich guys behaved? After suffering a heartbreak from an average guy, how could Madison be certain that Sebastian was not just using her to wipe the pains that Piper caused him? Sebastian understood her shock, explaining it to her. “I know it’s sudden, and I don’t mind if you need time to think about it.” Madison folded her arms to her chest and asked, “Why do you love me?” “Why won’t I love you?” Sebastian inched closer and rubbed her cheek gently; she stepped back, avoiding the touch. If she allowed her body to betray her, it would not be good.All this while, she was concerned about Sebastian not defining their relationship, but he was suddenly doing something completely unexpected.Her silence disturbed Sebastian greatly, and his mind was already filled

    Congratulations, Mr. Newman. Your wife is one month pregnant," the doctor declared, the atmosphere filled with excitement. The bond they shared brought them unparalleled happiness, each genuinely happy for their friends, including little Esther. Zora and Madison spent time with Coco, leaving Esther with the men. The triplets were adorable, the boys taking after their father and the girl after her mother. "I swear, Zora, this is my first and last time. It hurts like a bitch," Coco said, as Zora and Madison laughed. "I heard women were designed for this. You did amazing, mama. Congratulations," Zora kissed her on the forehead and said. Months later, Zora and Ezrah welcomed their twins, Eugene and Eugenia Gannon, and five months after, Madison had a baby boy, Justin. Esther was the best big sister anyone could ask for.

    The day before, Rush had called to inform Ezrah and Zora that he and Odette had a son. Due to the distance, they had not yet visited, and now, he was meeting Lake at the hospital without Coco by his side.“Ezrah, what are you doing here?” Lake asked, his joy radiating on his face, but Ezrah was surprised to see him so happy at the hospital.“My wife fainted, and what are you doing here? I don’t remember the hospital being a place for happy people.”Lake laughed and made a joyful revelation. “My wife had triplets. Two boys and one girl. I was just about to call you.”Ezrah recalled Lake wishing for triplets; it seemed he got his heart's desire and something to keep his parents busy.“Congratulations, Lake, you got what you always wanted.”“Yeah, we found happiness. Congratulations to us, but what’s wrong with Zora?” Lake asked again, his joy fading due to the news about Zora, but Ezrah’s explanation lifted his spirits.“I suspect she’s pregnant. She refused to take the pregnancy test, a

    “Lucas, you are insane. I will never choose you over Ethan, and I will never have anything to do with you again,” Ethel said through gritted teeth. Lucas was furious.“Then you leave me no choice,” he yelled and pulled the towel from her.She ran to seek cover in the closet, but he caught her and pulled her to his chest.Ethel felt ashamed and furious as her naked body pressed against his.She tried to free herself, but he was stronger and also drunk.“Why do you want to hide from me? We’ve had each other many times,” he cooed in her ear, but all she felt was disgust and anger.“We were married then, but not anymore. Just let me go,” she tried to push him away to no avail as he tried to force some alcohol down her throat.“I was ready to be kept on the side, but you refused.”After successfully getting the alcohol down her throat and watching her frown as he forced her to swallow it, his lips were closing in on hers.Ethel felt a burning sensation down her throat, and as a woman who n

    Chapter 318 – I loved you before, but not anymoreA week ago, Ethel arrived home with Ethan, but he was called away to take care of a few things because Ezrah was still on his honeymoon.The past month and a few weeks had been peaceful, and with Ethel moving in with Ethan, she had no need for a bodyguard. However, on this particular night, things did not seem the same after Ethan left.Unlike his brothers, Ethan never had his domestic staff live with him, but after his mansion is ready, that will change.They were not only planning their wedding but also their future together. All that they wanted for their kids, they wanted to ensure they had it in the mansion.Ethel had gone to shower after a tiring day at work only to find Lucas seated on her and Ethan’s bed.“Jesus, what are you doing here?” She halted in her steps, right in front of the shower room door.Lucas looked drunk, which made Ethel scared. Before she could reach for her phone to call Ethan, Lucas took it from her and inst

    “Why? Don’t you like it?” Ezrah asked teasingly. Zora screamed, “Like it? I love it, Ezrah. I’m a lover of pools, but I’ve never seen anything like this before.”She couldn’t take her eyes off her room. Everything was natural, with multiple pools scattered around.For the first time, words failed her when she tried to describe the aesthetics of the room.It looked as if it were carved out of natural rocks.Even the footsteps around were made of natural black stones, and the water was crystal clear. She could also see the Mediterranean Sea in the distance.“To clear up your confusion, we are at Papa’s beach, and this is one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. I thought you would love this as a honeymoon location.”Zora, though rich, had been too focused on business and revenge before. Honestly, she had never heard of this place.“I’m fascinated to be here.”“Great. Let me explain further. This is Calilo on the Greek Island of IOS. There are only 35 suites in this hotel, and each r

    The silence was thick in the air as everybody waited for Ethel’s response, which was not forthcoming.Feeling like he was just being used, Ethan had the understanding that she could not bring herself to trust him.“Dad, she doesn’t love me,” he said on behalf of Ethel. Lucas smiled, but his smile soon went stiff when Ethel responded.“I do, Ethan.”She saw Ethan freeze with a shocked look in his eyes and explained.“I mean, I never imagined having anything to do with my ex-husband’s kid brother, but I’m ready to give it a try.”“You do?” Ethan was so shocked that he lifted her in the air by the waist. “I love you so much, Ethel. I will prove it to you.”Their lips met once again, but they were rudely interrupted by Lucas. “Dad, how can you condone this? It’s shameful.”He could not believe how his submissive housewife could take an interest in his kid brother. This was unexpected.Ethel should have rejected Ethan and not this. However, his mother spoke this time.“You know what, Lucas

    “Kate?” Lucas turned in the direction of Ethel’s gaze, calling out accusingly, but Kate made a 180-degree turn and was headed to the exit when the man she came with blocked her.It was obvious that she was trying to escape the accusation, but everyone was interested in hearing what she had to say.Homewreckers were not exactly welcome at occasions like this, as every woman with a man of her own began to get protective.“You seem to be running away,” the man she came with said, not pleased by the revelation.Lucas walked towards her and questioned, “Did you kick her in the stomach?”Kate was covered in so much shame that her lips trembled because of all the gazes on her and replied, “It was an accident.”“No, it wasn’t,” Ethel interrupted, not upset but wanting to prove a point.“You said I didn’t deserve to carry his child because he didn’t love me. You were right because he divorced me,” Ethel smiled, no longer feeling the pain of losing her scum husband.Only Lucas had a pained expr

    From a distance, Ezrah and Zora watched everything unfold.“Lucas, I need to put him in his place. Can you give me a moment?” Ezrah was about to go to the scene of the incident when Zora held him back.“No. Didn't you say that Ethan seemed genuine with his feelings? Let’s see how he handles this situation.”Ezrah was unsure if Ethan could come out of this cleanly, reminding Zora,“You told me to protect Ethel or better still, let me get her bodyguard.”Zora shook her head. “Sometimes, the heart doesn’t know what it wants until the opportunity presents itself. Let Ethan deal with it.”Ezrah smiled and relented. “Alright. If you say so.”They heard Lucas mocking Ethan and Ethel. “Why? Can’t you kiss your woman? Sebastian has kissed Madison like three times already, even though they aren’t the bride and groom.”Indirectly, he was taking away the opportunity for Ethan to use the event as an excuse for his inability to kiss Ethel.“Lucas, how we choose to define our relationship is none of

    Everyone was excited for Ezrah and Zora, and right after the cake cutting, the couple's dance was announced.Ezrah and Zora had just left the dance floor and were speaking to some guests when other couples took over.Ethan saw it as the perfect opportunity to dance with Ethel, but there were other men eyeing her as well, and they were not afraid to show it.To make matters worse, they reached her before him.“Hi, I’m Rick,” one of them said. Ethan didn't recognize him from their company, which could mean he might be one of Zora’s co-stars.Ethan didn't like this but knew he had to be a gentleman to win Ethel's favor.“Ethel,” she responded with a forced smile, trying to be polite, and somehow, she was glad to see Ethan nearby.It was Ezrah’s birthday, and his focus would only be on his wife. Her bodyguard was there to protect her from danger, not lovers, so he was with the other bodyguards.The only man she had loved all her life was Lucas, and she had never had the chance to mingle b
