“Who is it from?” Michelle asked, and the two men were equally curious. Lake was sweating bullets. How could Ezrah do this without telling him?

Initially, he was forced to deal with Sebastian, as the latter had tried bribing him into revealing both Piper and Michelle’s whereabouts. After escaping that trap, Ezrah organized a romantic group lunch, putting him on the spot.

“Ma’am, the sender is anonymous,” the waiter replied. Michelle shook her head and returned the bouquet to her.

“Then I can’t take it. I would have to thank whoever sent it.”

The waiter did not immediately take it back, looking for an excuse to give when Rush bellowed.

“Or better still, throw it away.” If the person was anonymous, then he was indeed interested in Michelle, and Rush was determined to find his identity.

That would be the only way to prevent anything from developing between Michelle and the so-called anonymous person.

“That would be mean. These roses are so pretty, and white roses mean nothing,” Mic

    “Do you know him?” Edmund asked Michelle. Madison was not surprised to see her boss since he was Lake’s best friend, but she felt it wasn’t fair for Lake to have her invite Michelle over when Ezrah was coming with Piper. Michelle was so pained by Piper’s presence that she pretended not to have heard the question, but Rush replied in her stead. “That is her ex-husband.” He hoped that would be enough to scare Edmund away, so he would only have Ezrah to deal with. Edmund almost spit out the drink in his mouth, feeling like this was the most outrageous thing he had heard in years. “Ex what?” He might be a star, but the man he saw was not ordinary. There was just an aura about him that Edmund could not pinpoint. Pride was one of the words among many. Over two years of friendship, and Michelle never mentioned being married before. He could not decipher what it meant for her to have kept something so important a secret from him when she confessed to liking him so much. “You never told

    Coco stepped out of the restroom after finishing her business when a strong hand covered her mouth and began to drag her backward. She recognized the cologne scent of her ex-boyfriend and tried to wiggle out of his grip to no avail. Her delicate body was dragged into one of the stalls in the male restroom, which was empty since the restaurant was booked by just one person. There were no other customers except those at her table. Her face was pinned against the wall as River pressed his body against hers before removing his hand from her mouth and caging her two hands behind her. “What did you say? That you want to leave me?” He spoke into her ear, causing irritation to fledge inside her. Coco scoffed as tears brimmed in her eyes. After all she did for him, he had the audacity to do this to her. Her teeth gritted, and she spoke between them. “You engaged another woman, which means you were the one who left me.” River calmed down a little by her response and tried to coax her. “I

    Knowing that Ezrah was still in love with Michelle, he termed it that way before pulling River from the floor. Dragging him out of the stall, Lake smashed his head against the wash hand basin. River was seeing stars and the pain was unbearable. Blood gushed out from the wound it created. “You should be glad it wasn’t my best friend who caught you,” Lake threw him on the floor and the punches were just the way he remembered them. Over decades ago, a group of girls had gang-beaten his sister, Margo. When Lake went to teach them a lesson, he was overpowered by their brothers and boyfriends. Lake thought he was going to die when that quiet boy from his class came through for him. That quiet boy was Ezrah and they never even spoke before then. Ezrah sustained some injuries but the thugs spent weeks in the hospital after what he did to them. It was later that Lake found out about Ezrah’s elder brothers. He had toughened up to stop them from bullying hm. However, since Ezrah could not b

    Piper has been uneasy with everything going on but kept it inside. She finally lost her cool when Ezrah went to Lake’s table. Everyone thought he was there because of Lake but he was just ceasing the opportunity to be close to Michelle. Only an obsessed woman like Piper was able to see through his trick. He must have been concerned about Coco because he booked the venue, thereby assuming responsibility for everything going on. His gaze lingered on Michelle when she hugged Coco and Piper could not take it anymore. As soon as he returned, she began to address the matter as his fiancé. “Ezrah, please tell me the truth. Do you even love me?” At first, Ezrah would have given a direct answer to calm her but this time, his gaze was only loaded with irritation as he spoke in a warning tone. “Piper, stop it.” “No, I won’t. You always said you loved me but never showed it.” She was speaking to Michelle’s hearing, trying to stamp the fact that the words Michelle had longed to hear in her

    Sebastian was in the restaurant manager's office, watching everything on CCTV footage.His heart was shattered, and he had lost interest. With the confirmation he needed, he decided not to see Piper anymore. When Ezrah sent a text, he didn't reply or act on it.However, he didn't expect Ezrah to openly call him out with certainty that he was there. In this case, Michelle would know that his attention towards her was only because he realized who Piper was. It would have been better for him to forget Piper and not show up. Later, he planned to meet up with Michelle and woo her, but Ezrah ruined it for him.The son of a bitch had already made everyone realize that Sebastian had been part of the plan. If he refused to accept the invitation, he would not be surprised that Ezrah would come and drag his ass out.The guy was as crazy as hell. Gritting his teeth, Sebastian thanked the restaurant manager and walked out of the office. All eyes were glued to the door in anticipation of which Se

    Piper weighed her options. Ezrah was the man she loved, and Sebastian was the man she used to stall for time whiles waiting for Ezrah.Sebastian was the man who chased after her the whole time, but the moment Piper saw Ezrah, he was the man she wanted. She did not know what the two men discussed, but if she pretended not to know Sebastian, no one would be able to question her anymore. Taking a deep breath, she began to accuse Ezrah. “Ezrah, what is this? You said you were meeting a business partner. Is he the one? I don’t know him, so what is this business all about?”Sebastian’s mouth was so wide, his jaws nearly dropped. He could not believe that he dated this woman and wanted to marry her. She was like his sunshine, but now she was like a hot coal, burning his heart.“Piper, you have the guts to deny me?” He never expected this and was very hurt to have waited for her all this while when he could have made his marriage with Michelle worthwhile, though it was just a contract.“If

    “Slap her,” Ezrah ordered, the waitress’s eyes widened, and so did Piper's. Could Ezrah really do this to her, considering his relationship with her father?No, she must be overthinking it. The waitress was equally hesitant. The woman the rich customer was instructing her to assault was his fiancée.Perhaps he was pranking her. “I beg your pardon?” Ezrah lost his patience, and his expression hardened. “Back off. You can’t do it.” He turned around, about to request another waitress when one approached him.“Sir, I can do it because I need the money. My rent is due, I have bills to pay, and my sick mother’s cancer treatment bills are outrageous.” Ezrah liked this one and said, “A thousand dollars for a slap.” The waitress dropped her tray on the table and without asking again, she slapped Piper so hard her neck turned to the side, and she fell from the chair.Standing up with teary eyes, Ezrah asked her, “Are you ready to spill the truth now?”Piper endured not only the shame but als

    Ezrah did not look like he was joking or issuing an empty threat. Fear covered Piper’s eyes. She dared not try another trick.With her face all red and swollen, she was unrecognizable, and the pain was terrible. Ezrah hit her, and it felt like all the slaps both Michelle and the waitress gave her times ten. “I…” She was about to release another cursed word, and as if Ezrah predicted it, he warned her.“Be careful. If you call Zora a bitch one more time, I will put my principles aside and teach you who the real bitch is,” Ezrah snarled, glaring coldly at her.Pain and tears blended, stinging Piper in the eyes. So, Ezrah hit her because she called Michelle a bitch? The realization suffocated her in the throat.Piper could take anything from Ezrah but not when he was doing it for Michelle.It was so throbbing that after everything she did because of her love for him, it was being washed down the drain because of the same woman who came between them.Only if Sebastian had not shown up tha

    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
