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.

  • The Wife He Wants Back!   Chapter 148

    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

    HUDSON’S POV“I love the spirit! You must feel confident in her services, don’t you Rodriguez?” I took a deep breath, nodding as I opened my mouth to speak for the first time since Val came to the table. "Yes, I feel very confident. She has been doing excellently so far and I have no doubt she would exceed my expectations by the time everything is finalized.” I said, my tone formal, not betraying the agitation i felt on the inside.My words earned corresponding grunts of praise from the men and that was when I noticed it. She finally looked at me. She finally saw me for the first time since spending almost 20 minutes at the drink stand and the thought alone had my heart racing all over again.And just like that, she looked away. "It was nice meeting you, gentlemen but you will have to excuse me" she said, smiling warmly at the table before leaving.I literally let out a breath of relief after she left, my heart rate slowly reducing to the normal as I took a glass to help calm my nerv

    VALERIE’S POV “So, that man has agreed to go 50/50?” “Yes boss! I’m sure of it.” Another voice responded; his tone submissive like that of an underling. “Hmm, that is strange. Why the sudden change of heart? He has been hell bent on 60/40 from the start, what changed?” the previous voice asked. “Maybe he just wants to hasten things up, I heard his son is taking charge of their side from now on. That means he will be working directly with us” “Hmm, I don’t like new faces, Julio” the voice seemingly belonging to the boss grumbled and before the conversation could continue, I cut it off. Myself and Rob sighing deeply as we dressed back on our seats. “This is huge, ma’am. From the records, we can clearly see whatever business deal they are on about isn’t genuine, especially as they are trying to speed things up!” Rob said, taking the words right out of my mouth. I just nodded in agreement as he continued giving his analysis. “But the man in question runs a wide range of ill

    CHARLOTTE’S POV “Now lift your legs!" "Turn," "Now put it back down, slowlllyyy” Mr. Modrich, the instructor's voice sounded in the air as he walked round, assessing everyone. “Good, good! Perfect job, Mrs. Charlotte!” he praised, his voice ringing loudly in the quiet space as the music came to a halt. And soon after women chatters filled the air. “Honestly though, you look beautiful when you dance." he added, coming to the front where I stood. "Like I can see that zeal, that power and confidence…ah! it just radiates from you, Mrs. Charlotte. You should consider performing at the club!” I smiled bashfully at his praise. “Oh c’mon, I know I’m good but what is the club?” I asked and Lucia appeared in front to explain. “The club is where fellow tango lovers gather to enjoy the presence of excellent performers such as your selves!” she said with a smile as she scanned everyone present. “Oh my, I just looked it up!” A lady’s voice ran out, turning everyone’s attention to her.

    HUDSON’S POV“I will pick a place for us to meet, come see me on Charlotte’s birthday” were the words that replayed in my head as I stared at the door swipe in my hands. The address attached to it was familiar. I knew the place; it was the same place where she agreed to meet Grandpa for the first time.The place I first saw her vulnerable as she cried with Grandpa. The memory was still fresh actually, every memory I had of her was fresh. Addictive even, leaving me wanting more and more anytime I met her. “Boss, we are here” James’s voice called out from the front, snapping me out of my thoughts as I looked around in surprise.We were clearly at the VIP parking lot of the company and I didn’t even realize it. But nevertheless, I swiftly tucked the card in my breast pocket, just like how I had been doing this past week after meeting Val at the Socialist’s Gathering. “Everything alright, boss?” James asked, staring at me through the rear-view mirror. I just nodded before getting down and

    THIRD PERSON POVIs there such a thing as over expectation? Like where one places or imagines so much from a particular situation or something… an overly expectant person… Even the words don’t sound right. Anyone could clearly see nothing good ever comes out of being overly expectant over something or someone… so, how is it that Charlotte couldn’t see it too?There she sat, in all her regal… seated like some important figure of the society, glamoured in her perfectly sown white flowing dress that just screamed center of attention in the practice room. Eagerly waiting and anticipating the doors of the mini hall to open up, presenting the persons she had plans with.It was her birthday today. Her 30th birthday but popularly known as her 28th birthday to those who knew her but that wasn’t what made this day special. But rather, today marked 10 years that her plans at making a life for herself outside her father became a reality. It was 10 years of careful planning, flawless acting skills

    CHARLOTTE'S POV I smiled in joy as the elevator finally opened to the designated floor Hudson chose-The pent suite. It was the highest point in the hotel. The Kings hotel had always been known for their exquisite taste and excellence but this! This room right here was just marvelous! I mean, the elevator just opened up to the room itself!Fabulous, right?My lips parted in awe as I stepped into the space, noting all the luxury furnishings and décor. And as much as I wanted to admire each piece, I still had a man to attend to tonight! So, with a suppressed squeal I headed to the living room. My eyes scanning the space and not seeing any particular fancy stuff or decoration like I had imagined but still, I held on.Not wanting to jump to conclusions. My Huddie was nothing like Maria and the rest. Of course he wouldn’t pick up their ideas. So, I moved around for a bit to search for him. “Huddie? Baby?”Maybe he was hiding to pop up when I least expected it? Like the way the lady I spoke

    VALERIE’S POV“I have no one else but you, Lucia! But it’s okay, you don’t have to come right now.” She said to her, sniffling back her tears gradually. “Come see me tomorrow, okay?”“Okay bestie, I will. And I will help you start a big business and teach everyone a lesson!” Charlotte chuckled a bit at her words, her cries finally reducing to a minimum. “Yes, lets do that! I will be the president and you the vice president” Charlotte said enthusiastically, making Lucia smile“Agreed bestie. I’m on your side” Lucia assured her calmly as Charlotte sniffed some more. “Don’t ever betray me, okay? You will always be on my side, right Lucia?”“Always Char. I’m forever on your side” Lucia assured her, making me smile lightly as I sat on the couch. “Don’t cry anymore, we will figure it out tomorrow, okay? Go to bed now.” And a moment later the call ended and silence reigned in the room.I sighed deeply, sipping the content of my glass slowly. Letting the warm liquid travel down my throat as sa

    HUDSON'S POV“Angelina Rodriguiez.” Val whispered, “Angelina Rodriguiez, our Angel.”“Yeah,” I agreed softly, my eyes falling back on Val as I watched her smile fondly at the sleeping child just beside us in a crib. My heart warming as I took in the view- my queen staring at my angel.My queen… she had to be the most beautiful woman in the world, right? Cause how could she not be? I mean, look at her right now, it’s like she’s glowing. With this warm light all over her despite the tiredness at the edge of her eyes.She still looked so beautiful, so warm and strong.The strongest woman I have ever seen.Independent, smart, beautiful, elegant in every sense! An amazing mother too, birthing and raising 3 kids all alone for 5 years. Running an entire company by the side, while still looking so fit!A damn sexy ass boss, God!I could feel my heart swelling with pride the more I stared at her unsuspecting self. Taking in the artwork the heavens decided to bless me with… I was so damn lucky.

    HUDSON'S POV“Our new guest has arrived!” The nurse gushed, pushing its wheels just beside Val. Where I had been occupying before now.“Awww, how precious!” Nanny Beth cooed softly, moving to towards it. Everyone doing so too, all except me. I just stood by the side, smiling as everyone got a view of our fairy.As if feeling everyone’s gaze, our baby stirred in her bundle. Her soft cooing’s filling the air, and getting several rounds of awwn from both Val and Nanny Beth. The rest just smiled, especially the men. James and Henry, whose eyes were already brimming with unshed tears.And as for the kids, “Is that… is that our baby sister, mommy?” Miley’s soft voice reached my ears, “Is that my baby sister?”“She’s so small,” Aby joined, her big eyes twinkling as the baby was lifted out of the crib and gently placed in Val’s arms.“And so shining,”“And pink!” Miley and Miles whispered at once, both of them lost in awe of the small being now brought directly in front of their eyes.“A tiny

    HUDSON’S POV“The kids are safe! And so is Nanny Beth” I assured Val, trying to explain.“We had taken two cars, remember? We took two cars, mine and your Papa’s, because you couldn’t sit at the front due to pregnancy and we couldn’t all fit at the back seat with the kids. Me, you, your Papa, James and Nanny Beth all at the same time.”“Oh,” was all that left her lips, the memory coming back to her as she slowly relaxed back down on the bed. I didn’t want her moving or doing anything after everything she just went through from both the labor and with pushing out the baby.“We didn’t leave them, we just arrived here earlier than they did.” I continued, easing her down. “They will be here soon don’t worry. I just texted James the address.”She just nodded in response, her eyes looking a bit drowsy as she laid on the bed. “Is it okay if she sleeps? She looks really tired,” I asked a nurse, the only one still present.Apparently, she stayed back to keep watch and ensure Val’s vitals were

    VALERIE’S POVSIX MONTHS LATER“Wah... what’s happening?”“Why isn’t the car moving anymore? Hudson!!” I screamed out his name, my breath both labored and unstable as I literally tried to hold onto anything for support. Anything at all, as long it could elevate the searing pain that seemed to tear through me at every 30 seconds.Just then, the car door flung open, presenting a very alarmed looking Hudson. “Val!” He cried out, slightly panicky at first to see me sprawled out on the back seat as I was unable to sit still anymore. “Val… love, we’re here. We’re here at the hospital; you will be fine. You will be totally fine!”“Oh God…” I moaned painfully as another wave of contraction hit me, not even letting me register the help Hudson’s hands wanted to give to me right now. Forcing me to slap him away as I cried out in pains. All I felt was pain, everything hurt!Every damned thing, and the more I stayed breathless on these back seats the crazier I became with pain. “Oh God, Huds…Hudson

    HUDSON’S POV“I’m pregnant, Hudson!” her words echoed in my ears, my mind not believing it as I stood there watching her calmly reach the living room without me.Pregnant.Did she- did she just say she was pregnant?Like pregnant, we are having a baby pregnant?“Oh my God,” I found myself muttering, a smile slowly making its way to my lips as she winked at me from her spot on the couch. “Oh my… OH MY GOD!”At my outburst she chuckled, covering her lips to hide her smiles.I didn’t even realize when I started hurrying towards her, my steps literally the fastest i had been. Like ever!And when I reached her on the couch, I just tackled her to a hug. Uncontrollable laughter leaving my lips as I turned her over that she was on my chest. Her elated chuckles filling the air, matching mine, honey brown waves cascading all over us. Longer than I even remembered but I wouldn’t have it any other way.Something else was far more important. Way more important! We were having a baby! An actual baby

    HUDSON’S POV“Mommy!!” they jumped on her all at once, her smiling face capturing my entire attention as I watched her leaned down to their level. Taking each kid in her arms and hugging tight as I they each threw themselves on her.“Mommy, you’re home!”“Mommy is home…” Miley cried shamelessly; her lips pushed to a big pout as she held on tightly to Val’s neck. “My mommy…”Val smiled bashfully, tears in her eyes as she took in the crying face of each child. Aby included. Everyone was crying right now, hugging her tightly even if they could barely fit. And she held them, a tear rolling down her cheek as she cooed softly. “Aww, my babies… my beautiful babies, aww…”Even her voice was like music to my ears, hitting me as I stood there. Barely able to stand erect without the support of the door. Good thing it was there, else I would’ve stumbled a few steps backwards at this point, and that wouldn’t have ended well.“I’m sorry. Mommy is so sorry for leaving, okay? I’m so sorry… I missed yo

    HUDSON’S POV“PLEASE!”“I’m sorry, I’m sorry Hudson! I AM SORRY!!!” her screams echoed everywhere, loud enough to wake even the dead at this point. But somehow, none of it could bring any sort of calmness to my internal turmoil.If anything, it only irritated me all the more! My nose scrunching in distaste as I glared at her overly reddish skin. It was a wonder how they weren’t pilling off at this point, it was already her fifth dip today. And I still wasn’t satisfied.Normally, coming here and hearing her scream brought me some level of satisfaction. Soothing my mind even. But somehow today, that didn’t seem to be the case. The exact opposite was happening instead. Anger, irritation, disgust, boiling hot displeasure and a really tight scowl to top it off were all I felt watching this absurd scene of her crying and pleading.“It hurts…” she sobbed, hanging breathlessly on the iron bars as visible shock waves ran through her muscles. “Please… please I’m begging you, I’m begging you Huds

    VALERIE'S POV“Just one? One heartbeat this time?” Papa inquired with a big smile, moving even closer to the screen as his teary eyes stared intently at them. The doctor just let him, chuckling even at his silliness.“Here, this is a print out of her. You can stare at her all day, sir!”“I can’t believe this, I can’t believe that bastard got you pregnant again without wasting time! Just what is he planning? To steal you away?!”Oh my goodness.His words made me to actually chuckle now as I watched him. My heart lifting, “Alright, that will be all!” The doctor announced, wiping off the jell on my belly as the smiling nurses wrapped up to go.Several do’s and don’ts were issued out for me, Nanny Beth actively taking notes too. While I just laid on the bed, relaxed with my hands wrapped around my belly. Papa just beside me, making calls to Toberto. Some excessive pregnancy routine coming up for sure, with these two warriors of mine.Looking at it now, I could actually feel a little bump f
