"Hey! Good to see you again.” He said, still grinning."He..hey.... good to...um.. good to see you too" I responded in a stutter, and a frantic smile."Mind us going out, to watch the stars? The noise and everything in here is boring.""And I'm also sorry about my niece.” He added.I only nodded, my cheeks were tomato red, from embarrassment."Shall we?" He asked, offering his palmAs much as I wanted to say yes, I couldn't. I wasn't ready for Jason's yellingAnd also, I am supposed to play the role of a loving wife, it wouldn't sound pleasing if my attention were to be needed, and I wouldn't be found or I could be found, but with another man.All in the name of watching the skiesHis hands were still suspended in the air."Hey! She isn't taking that." The voice of Jason echoed from behind me, as he grabbed my hand and was dragging me to the dance floor, not roughly though.Wow! Did I see a glint of jealousy in his eyes? I don't know why that made my heart a bit happy though, it was j
"What are you all doing in the woods by this time?" One of the men asked, he was their leader, i guess."Oh! Sammy, it's me Frank.""Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry sir Frank, didn't know it was you...um... Sir Jason we are really sorry.” Phew! They weren't bad guys. Now that I do think about it, they do look like body guards, they must have been hired for the party.Its nice knowing that, I was so scared to death when they first appeared."So, why are you guys here? I saw you both engaged in a combat.” The Sammy guy said with creased brows."That question should be directed to you, and don't mind what you saw, it was nothing.”Jason responded"We were in search of you and your wife.""And you too sir Frank." Sammy saidGlancing at my wrist watch, I was shocked to see that we had spent nearly an hour in here"We would be heading back now.... let's go.” Jason said stretching his palm at me"Um....you all might want to dust yourselves a little." Oh yeah, it was embarrassing, but I definite
.....He didn't want his reputation tarnished, so he definitely had to act real. Frank was happy, he thought he got the guy.It pained me so much, just the thought that Jason would definitely leave me to the mercy of this bastard once he finds out what the guy needs.Frank punched me again, and a smirk played on his face."Frank! I'm pleading, please stop." Jason said, he sounded genuine, and it melted my heartArgh! Why would my stupid heart feel this way."What do you want? I would give you anything, please stop hurting her for goddamn's sake." Jason begged."Are you sure you would give me whatever I want?" Frank raised an eyebrow, smirking.He held up a belt, making sure to pass the message he was going to use the iron side on me. "You're not going to use that on me right?." I asked, my body was trembling in fear.God knows how many scars I would get if one stroke of that belt comes in contact with my skin."It depends beautiful....it depends on the choice of your husband. Today yo
It's been a week now, since that unfortunate incident happened, Lucky for Frank, he was only shot on the leg, so it didn't do much harm to him.He got arrested, and Jason charged him to the court for attempted murder, and of course he lost and got sentenced to ten years imprisonment.The guy still threatened, that whenever he got out, he would exact revenge on us."This isn't over Jason, you haven't won, I would be back to take revenge and of course, your companies." I remembered his words bit by bit."Go to hell!" Jason had responded. "You have nothing to worry about Sir Jason. He would come off that mentality, after his years in there." Jerome, our attorney said assuringly and we both nodded.I couldn't help but notice how loving and Caring Jason had become towards me after the incident.It was just like when we first met, always looking out for me and I couldn't help, but fall deeper for him. I hated it, and didn't want his care, love, or his kindness.I thought I hated him after
"You're becoming distant to Adam right?.... your.... your se....sex life isn't that great any longer right?" I asked stuttering. Jason only sighed, "We're doing okay, it's just that I've been really busy with work lately and with you too....so Adam is feeling kind of...you know...left out." He responded, trying to avoid eye contact with me."Hm!... He was here few minutes before you stepped in, if not for the fact that Julia intercepted, I would have been dead by now." I announced and he stared at me in confusion, then shock.."What do you mean you would be dead by now?" "He was going to tear my cut open, or at least make me scream at the top of my voice till it opens itself."Recounting what happened I longer felt afraid for my life as much as I did before. "The Adam I know would never do that, he can't even hurt a ...." Sigh! Adam is a saint, I get it."Look Juliet, I don't mean to say you're making this whole thing up, but....Adam, he is so tender and soft." He spoke softly, I
"She's still asleep, thank goodness!" Jason said checking up on me. I guessed he was afraid that I might over heard my best friend voice."I want to check up on her, I need to see how she's faring." I heard Alice say.How could Alice do this to me, she was the one person that I could rely on, in the entire whole world.She was the one person who made my dark, colourless life worthy of living.But... How could she just betray me in a breathe, all the memories.. everything we had shared, she threw them away. Hell! She threw me away.I have always been left down my entire life, but Alice.. Alice was the one person I thought would never be capable of letting me down. But she did.Now, now I have no one on my side. I'm alone."I understand you want to check up on her, but you know you can't open that door again. What if she wakes up?" Jason cautioned and Alice agreed."Poor Juliet. Frank must really be dealt with, how could he even try to take her life? If he succeeded, I would have stran
Jason invited me to the mansion which was kind of weird.I stepped into mansion and I almost ran out of the house to make sure I was in the right house.There was so much decorations, beautiful decorations. The atmosphere is so romantic, but this can't be for me right?"Do you like what you see?" Jason asked, I had to turn around softly to see him walk down the stairs with a beaming smile on his face.Anyone would love it, but I couldn't say a word... Why? Because he was half naked, his body is wrapped in only a towel. No matter how I tried my eyes wouldn't just peel away from his amazing chiseled body.Is not my fault, the guy is gorgeous."You! Alright you got me." I said and we both burst out into laughter, and then he stopped stopped Infront of me."Come! I want to take you somewhere." He said, his palm stretched out, I didn't hesitate to take it.He took me to his bedroom, and I raised my left brows, this where he wanted to take me?"Don't give me that stare, the place I would b
"What is the matter Juliet?" Jason asked, peeping at my phone, a gasp came out from him when he saw what had made me exclaimed. Julia had posted on her I* story, the truth behind our marriage. I scrolled down to the comments and tears clouded my eyes at the horrible comments they were saying about me. "Why would she do this? I thought... I mean, I know she hated me but going to this far..." I sniffed as I raised my head to glance up at Jason. Julia was heartless and I know that but I would be surprised to say I didn't see this coming, I always thought beneath that hard and black heart there was something good in it but I was wrong. I tried to believe the best in her but she has proved to me times and times again that i can't believe what she doesn't have. "I don't... I don't know" Jason replied, running his fingers through his hair. His face heated up, showing nothing but tension Immediately, I climbed off the bed, I have had enough of being pushed around by any and everyone. "Wh
(Juliet’s POV)For some weeks now, I’ve kept noticing that something was wrong with me. Especially my mood, the way it goes on and off is really worth to be questioned. The worst part would probably be how some of my favorite foods were starting to irritate me and make me feel as if I wanted to puke.“Are you alright?” Jason asked with Eric in his laps. Both of them were staring at me as I hit my chest for the fourth time in a row. They noticed that something was off about how I was behaving, and the way I had shaped my mouth too.“Mom?” Eric asked, and I nodded.“I am alr…” I had wanted to respond both of them that I was okay. And that I was only feeling something rise up in me abnormally, but I was cut short by the way the ‘thing’ suddenly gassed up inside me, fueled. I ran to the toilet, burying my head inside the water sink, and letting myself pour out all that vomit.Jason was behind me, covering Eric’s face as I puked into the white sink. He softly pulled him behind him, moving
(Juliet’s POV)The wedding party was over. The only thing left right now was for the newly wedded couples to leave for their honeymoon.I couldn’t possibly count how many wishes and prayers were devoted towards Jason and me with each steps we took. It was as though there were people placed around everywhere we were walking past.“Hey girl, you are good.” Alice said, kissing me on the cheek and hugging me so tightly. “Make sure tonight is memorable. Check your luggage, I dropped something in it. Make sure that’s what you wear tonight.”“You are naughty.” I said, spanking her on the butt. I knew exactly what she was talking about. I didn’t need anybody to tell me Alice was fantasizing about me having sex with Jason tonight, but it was less awkward compared to the first time, actually.“That’s what makes life spicy, no?” She said and we both burst out laughing. Jason pulled up the car in front of me, meaning that everything was set and we were supposed to leave already. I hopped into the
(Juliet’s POV)Alice rushed into the toilet, vomiting into the white sink that was right in front of her. She opened the tap and cleaned her mouth with the water that ran through it. I was behind her, watching her as she cleaned herself up. While she did her thing, all that was in my mind was fear. Was my best friend sick when it is the morning of my wedding day? Oh shit, I hope not.“Are you alright? Is everything okay?” I asked, moving closer to her as I wiped her wet face off with the handkerchief that was with me. She stood up upright and looked at me, nodding as a response to my question.“Yeah, I’m okay. I was just dizzy and suddenly felt irritated inwardly. That was why I vomited. Nothing is wrong with me, so put your mind at rest and let’s get you prepared.” She said, plastering a smile on her face. However, I still had some doubts about Alice. Part of me felt like she was only pretending to be strong because she didn’t want me to feel guilty as I would head down the alter lat
(Juliet’s POV)I went to the bridal shop to get my wedding gown. Alice and Julia asked to tag along to check how perfect it was. There was Adam too who begged to follow; I allowed him since he was gay anyways, and seeing me in the wedding gown wouldn’t mean a thing to him.We got to the bridal shop wherein I went into the changing room to put my wedding gown on. Alice, Julia and Adam waited for me outside the changing room, straining their eyes to see what I was going to show them anyways. I was done putting on the wedding gown, so I pushed aside the curtain at the changing room, stepping outside with so much finesse and beauty. I had hardly taken more than two steps when I was met with series of claps from the three of them. It sounded like a rainstorm, carrying so much of excitement.“Wow. Your gown is preeeeetty. I’m jealous.” Alice said, holding the tip of the gown and caressing it with so much care. I blushed at her words, praising myself for having a good eye for the gown, and c
(Juliet’s POV)I was going to be getting married to Jason few days after today. We were both in the room right now looking through the list of what we needed for the wedding to confirm if we haven’t left anything out at all. Jason and I skimmed through the lists, checking out what we already have ready on ground.“The wedding gown?” Jason asked, holding out the list.“Checked. Although I will have to go check it out in my room later.” I replied, and he ticked it up in the list that was with him.“I think we are all set. Everything is ready and all checked. I’m really happy and anxious.” Jason said, dropping the list to hold my hands.“Yeah, me too. I can’t describe how happy I am right now.” I said, burying my head under his broad chest. “I will be leaving your hotel room to mine today though. I won’t be staying with you here again. It’s our wedding soon, we can’t keep on seeing each other.”He scratched his head playfully, giving me a type of gaze that suggested to me that he underst
(Juliet’s POV)It was so surprising when I suddenly heard a group of people said ‘congratulations’ at the same time behind me, and clapping towards us. I withdrew my lips from Jason’s, trying to see who they were. They were my family. Julia, Alice and Judah too were among them. I saw Eric’s face twitching with delight. I figured out he understood what was going on even if he was just a little kid.“I’m happy for you, Juliet.” Alice said, wrapping her hands around me. I did the same, too, patting my best friend in the back as she started wishing me good luck and prayers. It would be an understatement to say that everything that happened here today, and that was going to happen in the future, regarding my happiness with my family, was all because of Alice. She was a friend that stood by me through my thick and thin. Even I didn’t know how well I could thank Alice. But, I started it simple first.“Thank you.” I said, as tears rolled down my cheeks as I remembered everything I had been th
Chapter 86(Juliet’s POV)Julia was still deeply hug within my grasp when the door handle turned and the door flung open. It was our mom. She rushed towards us, making the ‘awwn’ sound about our reconciliation.“Mom? What are you doing here?” Both Julia and I asked at the same time. We thought we had asked all of them to leave the room for us when we were about to talk. Who knew mom was still by the door eavesdropping on everything we had said? Hehehe.“I heard everything, darlings. I couldn’t resist the urge to put my ears behind the door and listen to all that you were saying. And it so lovely and beautiful to know that both of my daughters have been able to solve their differences and finally reconcile. I’m so happy right now.” Mom said, while both of us sisters beamed with a large smile.Mom had hardly spoken when dad appeared too behind. Apparently, he had heard everything too, but was not going to show up till he sees how we were going to take it. He shoved his face through the
(Juliet’s POV)“Why exactly are you so jealous of me?” I asked again. This time around, her eyes twitched but she still burst into laughter. Of course I knew she was only trying to hide the fact at first, she was still going to come back to her senses?“What the hell do you mean ‘hate’ and ‘jealous’ of you? Like, I literally have everything you don’t have, babe. I have the perfect body that turns men’s heads; I’m so pretty a stranger would beg to stare at me for hours; my model-like body is a killer, and literally, everyone fucking loves me where you are despised. So, why would I even bother to care about you at all when you aren’t a threat to me in any way?” She asked, laughing maniacally. This time around, she had stopped leaning back on the entrance and was standing on her own right now.“Well, you tell me, because the signs of your jealousy are there, sis. You are literally so jealous of me and I don’t know why you would fail or be blind to believe that you are. You aren’t being t
(Juliet’s POV)My head aches lightly, yet I still couldn’t help but feel how heavy it is right now. I gently opened my eyes to see where I was. I don’t remember anything that happened. I don’t even know where I was right now. My sight was first blurry at first before it started to become as clear as day. I tilted my head to my right side and found Alice sitting beside me on a plastic chair. Both of my parents were sitting at the left side, while Simone was standing by the foot of the bed, his head was buried into his palms.“What happened? Where am I?” I asked, and everyone’s attention went right back to me. It was as if they had heard something sinister because they all sprung up immediately, checking me out to see if I had really just talked.“Are you okay, my daughter?” My mom asked and I nodded. I noticed the drip that was being passed into me as I tried to sit upright on the bed. The headache flushed over me immediately as I moved it upwards. “You should rest. You are not okay fo
