VALERIE'S POV

4:55 PM, At Papa's house

It has been a couple of hours since I switched off my phone to stop the incessant phone calls from that dick head Hudson, picked up the kids from school and even enjoyed lunch together before we headed for the 'family meeting' that was to be held right here, at the Hernandez Estate.

The minute we arrived, Papa had immediately left me to the dogs using the kids as excuse.

Last time I checked, they were enjoying fruits at the pool side just by the other side of the mansion. And so therefore, I was forced to 'bond' with my amiable aunties and uncle.

Note the sarcasm there. The murderous stares I was receiving right now were farrrr from amiable, I'm telling you.

Infact, just staring at them sent all the wrong type of signals to my brain. Signals that I should only be having when I'm faced with a serial killer, all my brain wanted me to do was run and hide. Just like I had always done when I was younger.

It was unbelievable that the people I should

    VALERIE'S POV Patricia's words seemed to catch Papa's ears though, cause he turned to face her, his gaze cold. "Oh? That means you lot don't help to ease her burdens, do you?" He asked, holding each of their gazes one by one. "No papa, we do!" Patricia argued, slightly touching his arm cause their seats were much closer than the rest of us. "Then why are you here laying foolish complaints instead of dealing with those arrogant employees that you employed?! Are trying to drag the company to the ground?" Patricia gasped at his words, pulling back her fingers. "Huh? Answer me!" He spat angrily, causing Patricia to jump in fright. "You better check your phone's, check the news, crosscheck with all your lame as connections! All the staffs you organized for that stupid protest are currently relaxing in jail! Jail Barbara, jail!" Papa spat, his tone mocking. All three of them shared weary glances before immediately reaching for their phones. "So you did it?" Papa asked, looking at all

    Chapter 61VALERIE'S POV All throughout the ride home, my mind kept buzzing with what Papa had said. My boyfriend?How could Papa even think that?!I had three kids. Three 4 year olds to take care of plus a company! What time do I have to think about men?Pfft! Just ridiculous!Flashback to before the ride*****"Hey, what's wrong?" Papa asked, his cheesy smile instantly morphing to worry in a minute."Something up with your belly? Is it the juice?" He asked further as I slowly reduced to a moaning mess to the ground.The juice? Of course he would think it was the juice, and not what his information was doing to me. I couldn't even believe it. But I wasn't so concentrated on my phone earlier, or was I?Ugh, good heavens! I probably was.All those times I kept checking my phone, every notification or buzz, just to catch Hudson at the game he was playing.I had been blocking every line he used to call, hell I had been blocking every number a call came through with. I didn't even check i

    VALERIE'S POV Huh? I blinked a few times, to make sure I wasn't seeing things, that my brain was not making up scenes that weren't even there to begin with or worse, wrongly interpreting the contents of an innocent message but guess what?Those words still remained there. Unchanging and most definitely the exact way I read them a minute ago. "Take your time and go through your notifications, cause I'm just getting started with your fine ass"Fine ass?Wh...whose fine...fine ass?Me? As in... Me fine ass??An involuntarily scoff left my lips the more I analysed the text. I couldn't help the baffled expression that now graced my features. Hell, I couldn't even fully grasp the implications of those words.Did he even realize who he was sending this -Okay, hold on. Just hold on, let's not jump to conclusions now shall we? Let's take this logically,First of all, who would even send me such a text? And at the middle of the night at that. I checked the time on my phone and sure enoug

    VALERIE'S POV I woke up the next day to an empty house and the scent of a very much mouth watery lunch. Yes, lunch. I woke up unbelievably late today, like 2 pm in the afternoon kind of late. And you know what else I woke up to? Messages!Tons of them! All from Hudson.He had been trying to convince me to meet up with his Grandpa throughout the night and this morning. From the messages, after I dropped my phone last night , he had sent about 6 to 7 messages that went without replies before he stopped.I guess it finally dawned on him that I had gone to bed. But that didn't stop him though, cause he resumed again this morning, dropping more and more messages. There should be at least almost 90 unread messages all from Hudson.He just wasn't giving up. At first he was being forceful and seemingly intimidating but when he saw it wasn't getting any reaction out of me, he opted for much nicer words, pleading even.The very last ones I read was what resulted to this dull ache that was cu

    VALERIE'S POV "Aby," I repeated, trying out the name on my tongue before smiling at the bright faced little girl. She seemed like the quiet type though, with her sleek blonde and big brown eyes that seem to shine the more she stared at my kids.Anyone could see she loved being around them. Well, I had to issues letting little kids mingle and become friends, plus she looked around their age judging from her height. "Aww, what a cutie pie..." Nanny Beth gushed and pinched her cheeks a bit. Not too hard, just a soft pull but the little girl smiled even more at the gesture."Alright people, let's all have lunch" I said, standing up to my normal height and soon we were all seated at the dinning table, Aby included. We said a bit of prayer and everyone digged in. We were having pasta & spicy chicken sauce, stepped down by chilled pineapple juice. The kids were loving it, and I couldn't help but notice how much Aby ate. She didn't look or had any signs that she was starved or anything b

    HUDSON'S POV *Knock on the door* and a voice followed after, "Boss,""Boss, the other Sim cards you used have been taken care of. Nothing to worry about," James stated as he walked deeper into my office until he was standing directly in front of it.But even at that I did not acknowledge him. I could not acknowledge him, I mean how could I? When my entire focus had been ensnared by the sleek rectangle on my desk, all day!"Boss, you know staring at your phone all day won't make her reply to those texts, right?" I immediately scowled at those words, did he think I didn't know that already?Of course I knew that! I knew exactly how stupid and ridiculous I looked staring at my phone all day, but yet, I just couldn't help it.It was as though one moment away from my screen would make me miss a text from her. I mean, what if she sends a text and then deletes it. How would I know?I know these all sound like excuses but I just couldn't stop staring at my phone. As though reading my mind,

    VALERIE'S POV After handing over Aby to the red faced maid, the kids and I decided to stroll for a bit before going back home.We even got to know the exact house that was Aby's in case of next time. I actually allowed it simply for Miley's sake, she clearly liked the idea of the little girl coming to visit us. But despite all that, I couldn't shake the weird feeling that the maid was staring at Mason a bit too much. It was so bad that I took him in my arms to shield him away from her sight, leaving the other two on the ground. A lot of protest came as a result of that but all is good when you have a bowl of chocolate ice cream laying and waiting in your fridge, and not a single complaints was heard after that bowl.So therefore, I used that opportunity to secretly text Hudson of my approval to meet his Grandpa. Infact it was that very decision that landed me here. Standing in front of a portable family duplex on the other part of the City. I had gotten this duplex the first time

    Valerie POV I couldn't believe it.Hudson Rodriguez, the most arrogant man you could possibly find on the surface of the earth was crying??But what for? I knew he felt no guilt as to what happened between us. Not for the way he treated me or the way he let his family members treat me when Grandpa wasn't close by.So why was he crying?I admit, I brought whatever happened to me upon myself. I was just too delusional back then and asked way too much from a man that had blatantly told me to my face he wanted somebody else.That he loved somebody else and would never love me, not even if his Grandpa forced me on him. But I didn't believe it, I refused to see it. I was literally the only person back then, that couldn't see Hudson and I wasn't working.And hell, did I learn.I blinked out of my thoughts and realized I was still staring at him. I should have pulled away immediately and focused on the reason I came here in the first place but I didn't. I just sat there, taking in his featu

He’s so stingy…” Grandpa complained, narrowing his eyes at me as Val chuckled before guiding him to a seat.“We are back now though, so you can come visit the kids whenever you want! I’m sure they will love that” Val comforted, taking a seat beside him. And almost automatically, my smiles fell. “You’re sitting there?” I questioned, gesturing to her.“Why?! You’re so far from me! Come over here”Almost immediately, Grandpa grabbed her hands stubbornly. “Huh? Why does she have to do that?! You’re not a child and you most definitely don’t need her to care for you right now!”“Well, I do!” I retorted seriously, not liking how he was arguing about my woman with me. She was my woman and not his!“I do need her to take care of me! I’m hurt! Only her can help”“Huh? You? Hurt? From what?! Falling off your ego, now?!” Grandpa taunted, his voice loud

    CHAPTER 231VALERIE’S POV“What happened?!” I whisper yelled as soon I flung the door open. My eyes frantic as I scanned the room for the one person I was looking for. And the moment I spotted his tangled-up self in the sheets, my feet moved on their own accord, next thing I knew I was all over him. My heart beat suspended in panic as I rushed to help him out.“Oh, my goodness, what happened here?!” he winced from pain as I pulled on a side of the sheets. “Oh my, sorry! Sorry…does it hurt? Does it?” he nodded gently to my question. His expression pitiful as slowly, I untangled with from the sheets that had wrapped him up like a sausage roll!“Hold on, let me see” I cooed softly, helping him relax as I gently checked his bandages. Everything looked good. There were no blood stains or any signs of an added injury, so we were all good. But only after I had calmed down did, I realize just how quickly our sleeping arrangements had changed.Nanny Beth’s orders were strict; no sharing of bed

I have even received a copy from court concerning the details of YOUR sue! And you sit there to cry that you didn’t do it? It was someone else and you don’t know who that is?! Can you hear yourself?”“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry baby” were the words she kept whispering. Her cries filling the air as I listened, as we all listened. Myself, Hudson and Charlotte herself!“I’m sorry Huddie, I will fix this I promise! I will close the case right now and-” she whispered; her voice thick with emotion as she addressed him.“No need!” He interjected, his voice firm. “Just send the documents after you’ve signed them, if you want that is. Otherwise, see you in court, Charlotte. I’m not letting you ruin my daughter!”“No. No way! No Huddie, no!” Charlotte cried out, her voice panicky and I knew he was leaving.

    CHARLOTTE’S POV“Char?”“Ohh Charlotte…” the voice sang out, its mocking laughter following soon after as it echoed everywhere in the hotel room that I currently stood in. Looking all confused and properly scared to the bones as I couldn’t find the source of the sound.Someone was definitely talking; laughing and taunting at me, right here in this hotel room I had booked after no luck at getting into Hudson’s other buildings that he owned! Everything he owned had cut me off! All the entitlements I enjoyed and had been enjoying all these years, framing my lavish lifestyle… everything has been cut off!It was just me now.Me and this hotel room, plus the voice I as currently hearing inside it!“Don’t tell me you don’t recognize me now, Char” the voice continued, sounding clearer and clearer as a silent sob left my mouth. My lips trembling as I refused to believe it. I refused to believe the obvious truth that was right before me.“No,” I whispered, my hands flying to my ears to block ou

    HUDSON’S POV“I’ve just talked with Charlotte, she decided to move out of the house. You don’t need to worry about the kids anymore, I got you!”A smile crept to my lisp as I read that last line; ‘I got you’. It felt extremely comforting to hear, just as it was having her sleep beside me on the hospital bed for the rest of the day before she finally went home to the kids.That was also before we publicly announced the end of our partnership as well. An extremely closed off event to be honest, not the way I would’ve wanted it but the situation demanded it. Plus, Val absolutely refused for me to be on my feet for more than an hour. A bit laughable if you ask me, but I loved every minuet of it! To watch her fuzz over me brought me so much assurance and comfort that finally silenced the constant doubtful voice in my head. It has always been there, making me feel like what we had wasn’t real and Val just tolerated me for sex and the kids. But now, I was sure. I was so sure it wasn’t like

    CHARLOTTE'S POV“Get out!” she said simply, moving towards me again. Her gaze purposeful and dead serious, I could tell she wasn’t playing but before I could give a response. “Get out of here!” she yelled, pushing me backwards again, this time with more force compared to earlier.That was when I knew this bitch wasn’t playing at all. What the hell did she mean by doing this? Right here! In front of everyone! To disgrace me?! To proof she had the man and I didn’t?!“Hey!” I snapped, aiming to push her back as well as my anger broke free. But she immediately snapped my hands away, clenching it tight before pushing me backwards again. This time, into a clique of nurses close by. “Get security!” she called out, “She is not allowed here”And like a movie, a nurse ran out. Obviously to do as she had spoken. That means, I would be… thrown out? Thrown out of a hospital that my Huddie laid in all hurt?! I didn’t even know if he was okay! First, I hurt him. Maybe not literally but still, it was

Your father just finished handling a troublesome job, you know how he gets on days like this”My annoyance flared at his excuses; he was obviously trying to avoid the main topic on ground! They all were! “Get off me!” I snapped at him, shrugging my arm away from him as I glared. “You all…how could you?! How could he apply for a sue against my man and even announce it on the news! Without my consent, Raymond! He is my man, Raymond! My man!”I watched as is eyes squinted, slanting to the side at my yelling’s. My voice echoed everywhere in the house and I loved it!
