CHARLOTTE’S POV

“Wow, Char, are you sure you haven’t learned ballet before? Your movements are so beautiful!” Lucia gushed behind me, causing a breathy smile to make its way to my lips, boosting my confidence. And I arched my back even more, my shoulders high as I stared back at my reflection that was cladded in a black bodycon jumpsuit, through the wide floor length mirror in the training room.

We were currently at a dance training center to prepare for the new parent committee event that would be hosting in a month’s time. True to Lucia’s words, she had the tango dance performance included as the first thing on the list for an upcoming school event, and all parents in the classroom club were mandated to attend (Mrs. Thompson & her minions).

Isn’t it just amazing? I was so excited and currently giving it my all as I practiced with my dance partner. “Oh please, Mrs. Lucia, don’t try to be funny. Anyone with eyes can see what a ‘great job’ Miss Charlotte seems to be doing over there!”

    VALERIE’S POV“So, how was your meeting, ma’am?” Rob asked after a few moments of silence. We had just left the Green Land Holdings (Hudson’s company) building at about 30 minutes ago and Rob couldn’t just wait to pop the question that I knew he would bombard me with as soon as he got the chance. “My meeting was quite good, thank you” I replied, tapping my phone’s screen on.“Hmm, it was so good that you had to attend?” he probed, his words holding an underlying meaning. I angled my neck to him, raising an eyebrow to let him see I didn’t appreciate the questioning. “What, I mean you took a taxi here,” he defended,“Because I had a meeting to attend” I said, placing emphasis on ‘meeting’“The same meeting that the project supervisor could have attended” he insisted, “Or should I say, supposed to have attended. But he could not, simply because you had decided to go yourself at last minute. Even going as far as taking a taxi there! Not waiting for me to take you”“And what is so wrong wi

    VALERIE'S POV "Err, good evening Ma'am""Good evening," I responded with a smile, hoping to calm her uneasiness at seeing a strange face at the door. "I came to drop off Aby, it's getting late and I thought I brought her home to avoid her mom, Charlotte, from getting worried." I started, still smiling and hoping I didn't sound too strange.I used Charlotte's name so she would at least know I wasn't just talking. "Oh, you're a friend of Madame's?" The maid asked curiously."Well, err...sort of. Our kids attend the same school and are in the same class, I live a few blocks down the street, Plus, Aby here, visits often. So yea, I guess we are friends" I explained, letting out breathy smile at the end.That seemed to do the trick because she smiled warmly immediately. "Please come in Madame, and thank you for bringing ma'am Aby home.""Would you like to see my room, auntie?" Aby asked with wide pleading eyes. Such a darling, just making my visit a whole lot more easier!I admit, I hadn't

    VALERIE’S POV“Daddy, I’m sorry!” Aby sobbed, her tears falling almost immediately as the urine running down her legs. “Oh my,” I whispered softly and rushed to cover her up or at least clean her from the mess. Even though I was still in panic stage, my heart reached out to her. I wanted her to be okay and not feel guilty about anything because truthfully, I only used her feelings to get in here in the first place.“Its not her fault,” I started as Hudson rushed to her without a word, “Its mine. Sh- she wanted to show me where she hid her toys, and I-“Stop saying it” he cut me off, his expression stoic but quickly switching as his eyes turned to face Aby. “Are you okay, baby? Did I scare you?” he asked softly, wiping her eyes and hugging her tight when she did nothing but cry.“I’m so sorry, Aby. I really am” he turned to face me again after those words left my lips, his eyes accusing. “I just wanted to drop her home and-“I don’t want to hear anything more, just leave” he said curtl

    HUDSON’S POVIt’s a wonder how fast the day ends. How fast the weekend seemed to come. It’s like one minute you wake up on a Monday morning, all ready to go to work and then the next thing you know, it’s a Friday already. Marking end of the week, at least for 9 to 5 like myself, even though I was the CEO.And you know the most dreadful thing about this weekend? It means it’s a Saturday tomorrow, and the very weekend Val had invited me to a tango performance. In as much as I didn’t want to and would have actually preferred to tell myself I had forgotten about it, I still very much remembered her bold, daring, reckless and yet! exciting invite right in front of my company building that evening.I couldn’t stop thinking about, and the address I received as a text from her only fueled my thoughts about it all. But while I was at it, I couldn’t help but wonder what exactly she was doing at the house that day. My house, Valerie was at my house for the very first time ever since she divorced

    VALEIE’S POV"EUI, Emotional Urinary Incontinence. Abrille Rodriguiez, a five year old patient suffers from involuntary urination caused by emotional stress, anxiety and psychological distress. Shows signs of long term personality changes if improvement doesn't show up in three months";Those were the words that kept replaying in my head over and over again. I couldn’t get them out and I couldn’t shake off the dreading feeling that Abrille might actually have a mental disorder…like me. But she’s so small, her parents are okay and treats her well. What could have happened?Now the entire display that happened at the school previously, made sense. Everything made sense now, and I didn’t know how to deal with the guilt I was feeling. Unintentionally, I had put the child in harm’s way and for that, I was sorry about it.I guess I just had to make it up to her next time she visits and when Hudson gets to know about our kids. But as for now, I had a guest to entertain. Only through him will

    VALERIE’S POVI missed feeling someone’s skin so close to mine, pressed up to my body and just giving me pleasure. I missed it, and having the same man that first made love to me, kiss me now, all over again… it brought memories. Memories of those nights we spent in endless passions when he would come to my room. Those nights I would spend crying out his name at how good he made me feel. I was pretty sure it was one of those nights that birthed our babies that he currently knew nothing about.And just as quickly as it started, it ended. Hudson pulled away from me, his eyes wide as he realized the position we were currently in. And in a flash, he sent me landing on the floor in an unceremonious manner.Shock, dishevelment and anger were what I felt as the next words left his lips. “You! - How dare you cross the line? What makes you think you have the right to test me?!” He bellowed, his words coming out in ragged breaths as he stared wide eyed at me like he didn’t just kiss me.“You’r

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“Is it really that bad?” Lucia asked, “It can’t be that bad, maybe you’re reading too much into everything here.” I adjusted on the couch I was currently seated on so I could face her directly as she fetched freshly made juice for the both of us.“Really? Reading in too much? That’s not it at all! I’m sure of it!” I retorted, sighing deeply at the memory of how Hudson dismissed me without a fight last time. “I know so much has been going on recently between us, lots of arguments and all…but now, it’s different.“How different?” Lucia probed as she settled down on the couch after handing me my drink. “Normally, he would scold, ignore and pick a fight with me whenever there’s an issue with Abrille or I stayed out late or attended a party…but now, he doesn’t even bother to do any of that. Like… it doesn’t affect him anymore, as if he doesn’t find it worthy enough of his time. He doesn’t find me worthy enough… you understand?” I said, looking to Lucia with hopeful eyes.B

    HUDSON’S POV“Huddie? Your phone…” I blinked as I noticed her pointing beside me, “Your phone has been vibrating,” she explained and I quickly got my shit together and took hold of the object from the glass frame housing my watch collection.Swiping the screen open I saw that I have had multiple calls and texts from one person-Grandpa. The last one read; “When are you free, young man?! You either come to me or I come to you!”Ugh, what was the need for such threats? It wasn’t like I had been free all these while and refused to go see him. I had been very busy lately… busy drowning myself in more workload than I could possibly take just to erase that memory. The memory of what I did that evening.I should have just waited in the audience like everyone else did. What was the need to ask around for her and ended up in that private backstage that then led to the temptation of kissing her?!Jesus! That was uncalled for! And most definitely not the plan I had in mind when I decided to go th

Who would’ve thought?! Charlotte most definitely did not see this coming. She did not anticipate that a man she had so skillfully kept at her side would turn around, to return to the very woman he had left to be with her. A woman he divorced to be with her! His very own ex-wife!Hudson was cheating on her with his ex-wife!Wat was the world turning into?

    THIRD PERSON POV“Woah, isn’t that Miss Hernandez of De Hernandez Dreamz? She’s a parent too?”“She really is something! Check out those thighs…hm, so yummy!” another man close to where Hudson stood complimented, his eyes viciously taking in the features of the still smiling woman from afar. “I wonder how she does it, CEO and then a parent! Amazing.”The entire atmosphere buzzed with chatters mostly centered around the new addition in their midst. But not everyone could partake of these thought-provoking conversations. As to some persons like Hudson Rodriguiez, who had arrived a while ago. He couldn’t stop thanking the heavens internally for making him attend this function, to be able to stay this long that he was granted the opportunity to see the very woman that had set his heart on fire.Only the heavens knew just how worried sick and lonely he has been the past few days that he didn’t hear from her. His world had felt so dull and colorless these past few days, that the only thing

    THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEWWhat was that people often say about karma? That it is a bitch, right? Well, they were so right I tell you!I mean, who could’ve thought a mistress that replaced the main wife of a wealthy man, would turn out to also get so agitated by even the slightest chance her said trophy man would have another woman in his life? Another mistress I mean.Haha! It looks like no one likes the idea of her man having a mistress, especially Charlotte in this regard. One would think since she took the same route to barging her way into the life of a newlywedded couple, causing several conflicts and misunderstandings that ultimately led to a divorce, that she would be more understanding if some other woman was to show up in her man’s life using the same tactics.But no, she has proven to be of quite the high morals at the moment. A true believer that a man should absolutely have no one else in his life except his partner! Alas, been in the position of a current main wife has t

    VALERIE’S POVIt was relaxing to hear and I hoped he stayed true to his words until the end. In no time, he disconnected from the call, leaving Rob and I. And looking at his relaxed form, all cladded in casuals as it way past work hours. I couldn’t help but remember how he comforted me that night at his place. How he refused to let me know about it the next morning, probably because he didn’t want me to worry over it.He was so good to me… so good that I wished I had more of him in my family than those ruthless people I called family members. How good that would have been… “How are you? Have you had dinner?” he asked, staring at me like he didn’t deliver me a truck load of food earlier today when I didn’t even ask for it.I was about to give him a sassy comment, when I noticed something on one of the screens and almost immediately, my phone vibrated with a call I couldn’t take. “Everything okay?” Rob asked, reminding me we were still on call. But I just waved him off and ended the call

Don’t push me down again,” “Please don’t!”“Don’t!!”“Val! Calm down,” “It’s me. It’s Rob… you’re okay now”“Val?”“Valerie!!”And just like that, my eyes snapped open. A loud gasp emitting from my lips as I roughly hit down a glass of water from the table, I had apparently fell asleep on. Frantic, I looked around the environment and sure enough everything pointed to one thing; that I was currently in the underground in the house outside the city and breath of relief left my nostrils.Although, my heart was still pounding loudly in my chest, my forehead wet from sleep sweat. Other than that, everything was the same.“Ugh, goodness me…” I grumbled as everything came flooding back in my mind.I had apparently taken a time off from the world to meditate here in my game room. it was a ploy

What for?!”“Sir, they found Madame’s car at a hit and run scene last night” Paul explained, his words confusing me further. “What the hell are you talking about? How can Charlotte be involved in a hit and run incident?!” I asked, with furrowed eyebrows as the words refused to settle in my brain.What the hell was this new problem now?! I already had too much to worry about, I don’t need her adding to it. I haven’t even been able to come to a conclusion on how to handle her recent behaviors and now she went right ahead to get involved in a hit and run?! Just what is going on with that woman?!“The issue is all over the news, Sir” Paul added, turning on the TV and there it was on the screen with the craziest headline. ‘Popular Real Estate guru Hudson Rodriguiez’s supposed wife was rumored to have been involved in a hit and run scene that looked like it came straight out of a movie!’“What th-“It’s not looking good Sir, but our team are on it to b

    CHARLOTTE'S POVEven Raymond had been unable to give me any information, saying he was still working on it! “So much for trusting him to help me out” I grumbled darkly as I rigorously washed my hands in the bathroom sink. I have actually been here for quite some time. It was high time I go back into the bedroom. Maybe even have a third round with Ethan so I could kill this anxiety brewing inside of me.We had met up earlier today as I needed a real good fuck to clear my head. Otherwise, I might just end up going crazy inside that mansion! Hudson didn’t even take his mom’s calls so I had no way of pacifying my annoyance. My only option being Ethan’s dick.Of course, I would love for him to be Hudson right now but I had to make do with what I had presently. The next time I would meet Hudson, heaven knows I will have him tied up so I can have my way with him!“Let’s see how he would avoid me then!” I said out loud and finally turned off the sink so I could dry my hands.

There was eyeshadow stain on his suit!” I insisted, my voice rising from both anger and frustration as I tried to move past him so I could go into the living room. “That eyeshadow didn’t get there on its own, some woman was busy rubbing herself on him! He is seeing another woman under my nose! We need to find her!”“Kiddo! Wait!” he yelled, hurriedly running after me after I had pushed my way through. “Yes, we need to find her and we will! But the boss is meeting with an important guest right now, you can’t go there”“What? Even you too?!” I shot at him, my fury rising at his words as I paused to glare at his aged face. “My father is meeting with important guest, and so what?! Am I not important? Is my matter not more important?! His soon to be son- in law is now seeing another woman, shouldn’t that be a problem for him?!” I yelled, my voice rising and ech

    VALERIE’S POV“G-get lost?”“H-how can you be so mean to me?!” she shrilled; her brown eyes red rimmed from shedding so much tears and more still continued to drip. Her mascara was far gone as it had already formed a long streak down her both cheeks since I stepped into the office. I already knew she was crying.She had most definitely seen the makeup stain on his suit, just like I had planned and now nothing will hold back her doubts and fears. I knew she wouldn’t accept that Hudson was cheating on her so easily if she hadn’t seen it with her two eyes. He was after all loyal to her all these years, not once having a scandal or looking at other women. A man with such devotion, what woman would believe he was cheating without concrete proof? No one!And as such, I had to create one for her.I couldn’t show myself just yet so telling her about it was out of the question. Hence, my reason for intentionally applying a bit of my makeup on his suit earlier this morning before we came to his
