The Wife He Wants Back! Chapter 34
HUDSON'S POV Mommy? What does that even mean?! How could she be married when her file clearly stated she wasn't, or was I mistaken? Without wasting time, I pulled out my phone from my pocket, checking past messages from James. Luckily, I wasn't one to delete receipts and soon I found the file he sent me that day containing all Val's info. I quickly zoomed in and read it out loud, "Name: Valerie Ann Marie Hernandez. Age: 26 Guardian: Henry Hernandez Marital Status: Single " See, single! Absolutely single! Which meant she wasn't married. So how could a child be calling her mommy then? Did she... did she mess around after our divorce and then got herself knocked up by a ... "Oh c'mon, that's not even possible! Even if she was a wildcat, she's from a respectable family after all. She couldn't have done that." I chuckled sheepishly at the thought but suddenly paused, all smiles disappearing from my face as a thought crept into my mind, "Or could she?" She dared to seduce

HUDSON'S POV "Erm, Boss?" James asked, his hoarse voice thick with trepidation."Yes James? Did you not get what I just said?" I snapped back."H-Huh? I-I ... " he stuttered and my nose scrunched up in distaste at his behavior. "I said get me every single detail about Valerie and the man she's seeing! What do you not understand?" I demanded, my voice rising with annoyance."I got what you said boss." He rushed to explain, "But... Miss Valerie's file is locked. Most details are confidential, I only managed to get what I could that day and everything is in stored in the file I sent you previously,"I remained silent, my lips pursed in silent anger. "So you're telling me you can't do your job?" I said calmly, my voice dangerously low. "Not at all, Boss! I will -But I cut him off, leaning forward, my elbows on my black oak desk, the phone close to my lips. "I don't care about locked files and confidentiality. What I know is you're going to bring me every detail that I want to know.

VALERIE'S POV My encounter with Hudson at the hospital aside, the day did go smoothly. Better than I expected even.First, it was confirmed Papa's health wasn't threatened with any serious alignment or worse. It was just a case of the lack of some vital vitamins a person of his age should have, nothing a few tablets couldn't handle.And even at that, he was still strong enough to lift those chubby triplets of mine. I can't even begin to explain to you how relieving the sight of all four of them strong and happy made me.The kids finally got to meet their great grandpa. The joy on their faces when he paid for their toys and ordered more food was simply exceptional. Mind you, I buy them toys, we go out to have fun and all but it just wasn't the same. They were different, it was almost like they were glad it was him that got them.I sighed and put down my phone on the bedside table before sinking back to the soft linen of my bed."I wonder how they would have felt if Mom and Dad were h

Chapter 37 VALERIE'S POV I walked in, head held high as my heels clicked against the tiled floors. Everyone immediately stood up as a sign of respect, their tension filled eyes focused on my every movement and I basked in the attention. From the corner of my eye, I noticed Aunt Barbara and Patricia never stood up. As expected, no surprise there at all but what actually got me was the account manager beside Barbara, representing De Hernandez Made-to-Order Furniture Co. He never stood up either, rather he remained nonchalantly seated. Pompously looking even as he eyed the other account manager beside Patricia, trying to force him to sit down. The young man was skeptical at first,but after a death glare from Barbara, he immediately sat down. The other account managers from different subsidiaries looked on with apprehension at my dear aunties open display of disregard. But instead of giving them what they wanted I pretended not to notice and took my seat at the head of the ta

VALERIE'S POV The whole table went silent. No one daring to speak for anyone again, even Patricia looked properly shaken up. She was most definitely not expecting me to know about the secret account.I was yet to locate the account though, but currently, knowing it's existence was just enough.My eyes landed on the account manager that didn't stand when I came in. "How about you?"He held my gaze for a few minutes and turned to glance at Barbara, as though asking for permission. She leaned in to whisper something in his ear like a four year old, something Mily would do. I snorted a laugh at the thought and gently relaxed on my seat, stirring my coffee a bit. Everyone watched in anticipation, waiting for the inevitable and finally Aunt Barbara spoke up, "We've reviewed our accounts and they are perfect. No discrepancies, you can check them out yourself." A loud bang sounded on the table causing everyone to jump as she dropped a load of files. "Rob," she called, "Give it her"I let

VALERIE'S POV I went back to my office after the meeting and started working on the stack of documents on my desk. There were so much jobs to be done. Tons of designs to approve, projects to conclude, project sites to visit and lots more. And also, let's not forget the Sky Castle project as well- Hudson's project.Argh, I don't even want to think about it. That project alone was heavy duty and it's excellence being tied to Hudson made it all the more worse.I could feel an ache coming on just from the thought of it. I sighed, putting down my pen to relax on my soft ass chair. "It's moments like this that I'm grateful I'm rich." I mean, imagine thinking about handling all these workloads without the comfort of this leather seat, "Just terrible!"I stayed like that for few minutes, enjoying the silence before finally repositioning myself to resume work. "I better get started with concrete plans for Hudson's building. The last I want is that dick head having a reason to run his mouth

VALERIE'S POV After having a light lunch at the Red Bites just like Rob had 'instructed', I headed home. There wasn't anything urgent that needed my attention at the office anyway, and besides I had already dealt with at least half of the documents on my desk. Surely, a half day off wouldn't stop the company from running now, can it? So therefore, here I was tied up in a white apron preparing dinner for the kids. It has been quite a while since I made them dinner myself, "Should I slice the vegetables, ma'am?" one of the new help asked. I turned from the boiling pot to check behind me at the sound of her voice. She quickly pointed to the bowl of carrots and "oh, I haven't done that? I will get right to it don't worry." "Please ma'am," she insisted, her voice calm but still held a sense of urgency in them. "I was sent here to work and help out. If the chairman finds out I'm doing the opposite then... I don't... I don't know what he might do to me." I sighed and took in he

Valerie's POV I stood up from the floor where I was cowering in anxiety and raced to the door with all my will power, leaving back all the dark memories that threatened to consume. Those double doors had never looked so beautiful, just standing there, shining like the key to my salvation. And finally, when I reached the handles I swung it right open, the warm breeze of the evening immediately hitting my tear stained cheeks and I slammed the door shut behind me. Trembling from both adrenaline and relief as I relaxed my back against it. Just as I thought I was safe, sharp excited screams suddenly filled the air and shook the devil out of me. "Surprise!!!" I stood frozen, my panicked eyes wide as I slowly took in the scenario in front of me. Everyone was present, Papa, Nanny Beth, the kids and even the staffs of the house, both old and new. Each person blinking excitedly at me while holding unto balloons and roses. By the side in the spacious yard was a long line of buffet, hel

HUDSON’S POV“Do you understand now?”“First, the man you wanted left you, Amelia left you, Ethan also did, and now… your own father has abandoned you.” her voice sounded softly, almost considerate but the underlying cruelty was hard to miss. A total contrast to the nonchalant expression on her face, like even speaking to the woman on phone was not worth wasting her energy.It was enchanting, to say the very least.“No one wants you; no one wants to be with you.” She whispered slowly, “You will die alone, Charlotte. A long, lonely death. Remember that,”And just like that, the call ended. The phone sliding from her ears, every movement smooth like she had finished the deal right then and there, which she had though. The bait had been set.The bait we both agreed upon after Ethan showed up at our doorstep, with information about Charlotte. A very daring attitude from a person with his record of betrayal. Ever since he attempted to kidnap Valerie back then, he had gone off record. Which

CHARLOTTE'S POV“Oh yeah?” she sneered, sounding totally unbothered as I continued to brew with anger. “What will you do to Drake then? You see he made a deal with me; to hand over all his dealings with my family, testify against you in court, revealing all the many corpses that was buried underneath the garden in his house for you.”What?“What are you talking about you bitch, I killed no one!” I responded, my breathing shaky as memories of how so many dead bodies were used as fertilizer for the rose garden back home. Dead bodies that were as a result of several tortures and beatings given to men doing business with the heartless man that was my father!It was all him!How come this bitch was saying something else here? How did she even know about the bodies?!“Those corpses are as a result of the many murders that you have done over the years, Charlotte!”“That’s not true!” I argued angrily, losing my cool.“But Drake said it is, and he is testifying against you in court!” she insis

CHARLOTTE’S POV“What the hell are they doing?”“Why are they even together at the hospital? Just what the fuck is this?!” my voice resounded everywhere, bouncing off the walls in the apartment I currently occupied with Raymond.But could you blame me? I was pissed off!Pissed off by the stupid ass video that was been displayed on the tv screen! A video of what supposedly had happened between my man and that bitch Valerie today! Or was this some sort of trick? That bitch Valerie was pulling a stunt again?But even if she did, how did Hudson come onboard with this?! To do this with her! Act like they were all perfect and okay, when I knew they were not! They most definitely were not! They shouldn’t even be!Valerie’s schemes have been exposed! Hudson knows all about this now, I was sure of it! I watched him drive off angrily that night, away from their new place. He didn’t go home that day I sent those cameras, they had a fight. I was sure of it!So why instead of packing his things an

HUDSON’S POVSilence settled between Val and I as we walked all the way to the ward. Our fingers still interlocked, until finally we reached the very door that held Miley’s excited laughs behind it. And then I stopped, facing Valerie right then.“What money?” I asked, but she simply blinked. Probably not expecting my question, but I heard the conversations between her and her aunties anyways. Or at least part of it, since they were already speaking before I arrived there. So…“The money your aunt was referring to” I explained, my voice calm as I waited. “She said something about a stolen money that was in Mason’s name, and you were going to be arrested for it if they called the cops. What was that all about?”“Oh,” was all she said, a deep sigh following right after. “It’s… it’s a bit personal,”Huh?“Personal?” I repeated, not believing she was about to do what I thought she would do. “How personal is this that I can’t even know about it? Mason is involved here, that’s my son, Valeri
The Wife He Wants Back! CHAPTER 294
HUDSON’S POVComing back home was nothing short of what I had expected. My kids gathered were together, happily playing games, absolutely oblivious of the current happenings surrounding me and their mom. As far as they were concerned; daddy had to take a little trip to check out a building site.A strategy Nanny Beth took to save them from the hassle of wondering why I wasn’t home for 2 days. But aside my kids, everything else seemed fine. The maids, Nanny (Whether or not she knew, she didn’t behave like it at all. But assuming she didn’t know anything will be highly stupid on my part cause Valerie tells her almost everything despite their huge age difference!) but above all, there was no Valerie.I wouldn’t lie to you, a part of me immediately thought of going back to the house outside the city, to check if she had still gone back there. But I just held back. Forcing myself to focus on taking a nice shower, eat a really satisfying meal and then catch up with my kids.The last time I
The Wife He Wants Back! CHAPTER 293
VALERIE’S POV“I-I’m truly sorry,”“I am- am so sorry for lying about that day,” I apologized, my voice breaking as I tried to keep my tears at bay. “I shouldn’t have lied! I should’ve… I didn’t know you and the kids were at the office, I didn’t know you guys wanted to surprise me so we could have lunch together. It’s all my fault! I’m sorry…”“Of course you are. You are sorry now, Valerie.” His voice sounded in the air, bitter but yet so calm. Unlike his explosive self that I had seen that day in the secret room. “But you weren’t sorry when you just lied to both me and the kids that day, running off to go clear evidences of your actions for fear that someone would get to it first before you do. Maybe someone already got to them-Charlotte had! She did send a few cameras after all; I’m guessing that is what got you agitated and also what had been bothering you days before the kids and I even went to your office!”“No! That’s not it at all,” I rushed to explain, “I wasn’t bothered about
The Wife He Wants Back! CHAPTER 292
CHARLOTTE’S POV“What? What did you say?”“They are still under the same roof? My Huddie is still living in that house? With her? with bitch Valerie?!"He simply nodded in confirmation, amplifying the horror I just heard. “How?!” I blasted, loosing my shit right then and there. “How is any of that even possible?! He should’ve left her by now! They should be fighting and him not forgiving what she has done! How can they still be together? That’s impossible!”“It is possible!” Raymond insisted, his tone similar to mine. “I saw him myself! I saw Hudson drive into that mini city of his- the Sky Walls! I saw him, and even waited for over an hour to see if he would come back out, but he didn’t! The man simply went home to his woman and kids, get over him kiddo. We need to leave the country before things get out of hand!”“No,” I responded, not wanting to believe a word he said.“Kiddo, You-“No! I said no!” I boomed, smashing the glass of water I was supposed to take my meds with. “I’m not

VALERIE’S POV“He just suffered from a mini panic attack, ma’am”“Given his age, attacks like this could often lead to stroke, full blown heart attacks, or even death on the spot!” The doctors voice resounded in my ears, sending yet another terrible ache throughout my temples. It has been this way since we took Papa to the hospital. And by we, I meant myself and Babara.Patricia came along too but quickly left after hearing he was still breathing and alive. Davis didn’t even come at all. Displaying their exact feelings towards their own father. Making me wonder even more that; what would have happened if I had already driven out of the estate before he collapsed today? What would have become of my Papa? Would he have- would he have really died? Just like that? Because his own children were too busy fussing over him instead of hurrying to get him to the hospital immediately?!“We have managed to stabilize his blood pressure for a bit, but I would advise no more shocking news to be brou

HUDSON’S POV“Daddy is making dinner, yay!” Miley's excited voice filled the air.“Yup!” I concurred, enthusiastic as I turned around to face the kids- my guests. “Good evening, pretty princesses and handsome princes! You can call me chef of sweet meals, and I will be preparing dinner!”“Yay!” Aby clapped happily as I introduced myself, smiling as she looked into the camera.“Since when did daddy become a chef? Do they learn that in business school too?” Mason asked curiously, looking around for answers. So typical of Mason, linking stuff around and asking questions as soon as they popped in his head.“No sweetie, no one learns cooking at business school.” Her sweet voice sounded in the air, answering Mason’s question. And in no time her face came into view, her smile flawless as she angled the camera to capture herself as well. “Daddy knows nothing about cooking, which is why I am here recording this moment! First time ever for the popular Hudson Rodriguiez to be in the kitchen! We ha
