LISA'S POV As the ceremony began, Grandma took her place at the front, a warm smile on her face. She gazed out at the gathered guests, her eyes twinkling with love and joy."Dear friends and family," she started, her voice clear and strong. "We are gathered here today to witness the union of Lisa and Leo. A union that will bring together two families, and create a new one."She paused, looking at us with tears in her eyes. "Lisa and Leo, your love is a beautiful thing. It has brought light and joy into our lives, and we are so grateful to have you both as part of our family."As she spoke, Leo took my hand, his fingers intertwining with mine. I felt a surge of love and happiness, knowing that this was just the beginning of our journey together.Grandma continued, her voice weaving a spell of love and commitment over us. "Today, we gather to celebrate your love, and to witness your commitment to each other. Lisa and Leo, will you please repeat after me?"We nodded, our voices echoing
LISA'S POV I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. I looked at Leo, and saw the concern etched on his face. I knew I had to reassure him, to let him know that I was okay."Leo," I said, my voice shaking. "I'm sorry. This isn't how I wanted our wedding day to end."Leo's face softened, and he took a step closer to me. "It's not your fault," he said, his voice gentle. "We'll figure out who did this, and we'll make them pay."I nodded, feeling a surge of gratitude towards him. He was standing by me, even in the midst of all this chaos.Grandma cleared her throat, her voice firm. "We need to focus on the task at hand. We need to appease the priest, and find out who brought that band to our wedding."I nodded, determination rising within me. "I'll do whatever it takes," I said. "I won't let anyone ruin our marriage."Leo's eyes flashed with approval, and he took my hand. "We'll do it together," he said.As we stood there, united, I knew that nothing could ever come between us. Not my
LISA'S POV As soon as dinner concluded, my father rose from his seat, his expression resolute. "It's time for us to leave," he announced, his tone firm.My mother nodded in agreement, her eyes darting towards Grandma, who looked taken aback. "So soon?" Grandma asked, her voice tinged with disappointment.My father's gaze avoided mine as he replied, "We've overstayed our welcome."Louisa, who had been quiet throughout dinner, spoke up. "I'll gather my belongings."As they prepared to depart, the atmosphere in the room grew increasingly tense. Unspoken words hung in the air, heavy with accusation and suspicion.Grandma escorted them to the door, her expression stern. "We need to discuss this further," she said, her voice low and urgent.My father's face tightened. "Not now, ma. We'll talk later."As they stepped out into the night, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. I didn't want them to stay, not with the tension between us.Leo walked with me to the door, his hand on my shoulder.
Lisa’s POV Two weeks after my wedding, I discovered I had been carrying a dead child inside of me. I didn’t even know I was pregnant to begin with. It all started with that dream. First off I do not believe in dreams but certain things have happened and I am beginning to think otherwise. I had dreamt of attending a funeral with my husband. I didn’t know who had died or why I was there. All I knew was that someone was dead. Only for me to go to the hospital and just like that, I was immediately operated on. It’s been three years since that incident and I have never been pregnant. Now all I want is simple; a normal life. I didn’t want to control a business or be famous. All I wanted was a happy home, a loving husband and little versions of me and Andre running around the house, but then the last part of my wishes are yet to come to pass. You know, they say a child is a gift from God but here I am staring at a woman named Sarah, asking the nurse, places she could go to get a bab
Lisa’s POV“So how was the visit to the hospital?” Andre asked. He had asked that I go get checked when I began sleeping around the house.What I didn’t tell him was that I didn’t go. I didn’t want to put my hopes up on something, only to get disappointed again like the last time. I never want to feel that way again. “Good!” I replied, plastering a smile on my face as I buried myself in the cooking. I increased the speed of the blender. Maybe if the noise became too much, he would quietly walk away from the kitchen. Andre stood right in front of fridge. He didn’t pick a fruit or anything. He had already drank a glass of water, so I wondered what he was still doing here. When ever the blender stopped, I would start it all over again. I repeated the process until Andre gave up and walked out of the kitchen.During dinner, Andre still didn't want to drop it.“What did the doctor say baby?” he turned to me and looked me in the eye. My mouth went dry but I didn’t dare swallow. Not with A
Lisa’s POVI stiffened immediately on seeing the face on the video. It was blurry but I could still make out the faces. It was Andre and a female I had never seen before. Andre Luster. My husband. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.They were buck naked on the bed. I pinched myself in hopes that this was some sick game targeted at me but the more I stared at the video, the more real it became and the more I recognized who the male is in the coital affair.No! this is just an attack. Who ever this is knows I am the wife of billionaire, Andre Luster. This must be some AI shit.I threw my phone on the bed and walked into the shower. The water was too cold. I got out and went to get myself some food but it was too hot. Suddenly I was feeling too hot. I felt like some prisoner in my clothes. I walked around the house but I still was not satisfied. Finally I went for a swim. As I sat, trying to catch my breath, then the tears began to fall freely. This time I did nothing to stop it. I
Lisa’s POV“It’s a baby Lisa! Have some mercy!” Andre yelled at me that night. I had confronted him immediately in our bed room.“I don’t care! I don’t want to see her here!” I screamed louder. I was this close to losing it.“I can’t send her away, she has my child,” he grumbled.“What! I can’t believe the nerve— I sneered— you cheated on me and brought back a receipt and you had the guts to throw it in my face? What of me? My— ” I was about to tell him about my own baby when he interrupted me.“My hands are tied,” he announced.“So you are going to sit there like a dummy and do nothing?” I turned my head to the side. The next thing I know is I am being shoved.Andre pinned me to the wall. “I have had enough of your stupid attitude.“ He growled. “If you had quietly gotten pregnant, this would not be the case!” he warned me.“What?” I gasped. Shock reverberated through my body. I couldn’t believe those words were coming from Andre. My Andre.Andre walked out of the room.I slowly sank
Lisa’s POVAt this point I believe I had been cursed. On Monday, Shelly, because that was her name, the girl my husband cheated with, messed with my smoothie combination. She ate up all the apple. I swiftly told Andre and he told me to be more accommodating. That she was pregnant. I had to let that slide.On tuesday, she occupied the sitting room with her bitchy friends and they laughed like witches. I couldn’t concentrate on the book I was reading.On wednesday, she made Andre’s mother yell at me. She had told her series of things about me and when I entered the sitting room she stopped talking. Before Andre’s mother left, she warned me to let Shelly carry her baby to full term, since I didn’t want to get pregnant. That hurt me so bad, even though I was pregnant, it still hurt.On thursday, she told the delivery guy to take my package back, that this was the wrong address. I didn’t react so much because I didn’t want to stir up trouble. It was on Friday that I couldn’t take it anymo
