Liam's POVI was extremely disturbed by the argument that I had just finished having with Cassandra and I didn't know what to do anymore. Was I supposed to tell Cassandra to keep her distance from Jason or tell Jason to keep his distance from her?The two of them were currently driving me crazy and I didn't know what I was supposed to do to stop the odd relationship they were about to form between each other.Obviously, I couldn't tell Cassandra what to do because if I tried telling her to stop the revenge plan, she would get all pissed with me and unhappy. But I loved her and didn't want to make her unhappy which meant I couldn't try doing anything to change her mind.All that was left to do was to make Jason give up on this stupid attitude that he just began and convince him to stay away from her but gosh, it was so difficult.Determined to address the issue head-on, I reached for my phone and dialled Jason's number. The call rang for what felt like eternity before he finally picked
Liam's POVI turned off the television after watching a late night football game and walked to the children's room to check on them before going to my room. On entering the room however, I met a sight that made me pause at the door.Cassandra was awake, sitting up in bed with her face illuminated by the soft glow from her phone screen. I blinked in surprise, my eyebrows knitting together as I watched her. She was the one who always insisted on an early bedtime and yet here she was, wide awake long past her usual sleeping time.“Cassandra?” I called out gently, trying not to startle her and she looked up, surprise mirrored in her eyes as she quickly put away her phone."Liam, you're back," she greeted with a smile that was a little too forced and her eyes a little too wide.Why was she acting so strangely? Did she think that I would be bothered by the fact that she was not yet sleeping? That really wasn't a problem, she could stay up late if she wanted. I wondered what she was doing fo
Cassandra's POVI gasped with my eyelids flaring as Liam snatched my phone out of my hand, surprised at the sudden movement and anger ignited within my chest. I immediately moved to collect it from him but he jumped off the bed."Liam, why did you take my phone? Give it back to me!" I immediately demanded but he ignored me and moved the phone to his face. "Don't do that Jason, you're invading my privacy!""What in the world are you chatting with Jason about at this hour?" He asked, his voice laced with a mixture of anger and jealousy which got me even more annoyed."That is none of your business! You had no right to take my phone from me," I responded angrily and he chuckled."Of course, you wouldn't want me to take your phone so that I won't see you chatting with some other man.""Why are you making it sound so dramatic? I was just chatting with Jason, not some strange man you don't know. Are you not supposed to be calm since you know who I'm talking to?" I complained."Actually, the
Liam's POVI watched as Cassandra began making her way out of the room and almost punched the wall in annoyance. How could she get furious at me when she was the one who was chatting with another man in the middle of the night?She was even chuckling so much and from the messages I saw on the screen when I looked, it was obvious that Jason was flirting with her and she was definitely flirting right back.She was probably reasoning that her plan was working right now and trying to do her best to increase his interest in her while he was probably thinking... I didn't even know what he would be thinking.Jason was such a complicated man so I couldn't ever predict his moves. He was previously so enraged that I would accuse him of trying to get my fiancee attracted to him as if that act was beneath him but yet that was exactly what he was doing right now.I had no idea what he would even do next but I hoped it would be nothing fatal as even though Cassandra was presently driving me crazy,
Cassandra's POVI walked out of the children's room after putting them to sleep and was going to my room to prepare for bed when I saw Liam walking out of the room dressed in a suit."Do you have to meet with someone this night?" I asked him as we met each other."Actually, no," he replied and I frowned. "I'm taking you out.""What?""Yes. We've been arguing a lot these days so I want us to have a nice night together for once," he told me and I smiled. "I prepared a date for us and now, I want you to go get dressed so that we can go out.""Where are we going?" I enquired."Somewhere special, it's a surprise," he grinned."Oh really? Why are you just telling me then? What if I declined your offer? What would you have done with what you have planned?""I knew that you would accept to go out with me and even if you wanted to reject the offer, I was aware that I could change your mind," he stated confidently."Someone is being cocky," I chuckled and hit his chest playfully."It's hard not
Liam's POVI walked out of Jason's company building with Jason beside me and Cassandra and Mrs Berkeley behind me. The launching event for our collaboration had just been concluded and we were on our way out."I hope that everything goes according to plan, Mr Bradwick," Jason smiled as we stopped in front of the car that brought us to the company and I forced a smile onto my face in reply."Everything will, and you will not regret this investment," I stretched out my hand for a shake and he gave me a look that I didn't understand, though I could tell it meant something negative, without breaking the smile on his face before shaking my hand."Have a safe trip then," he concluded and began making his way to the car behind mine while followed by his guards.I pulled open the door of my car and got in then Cassandra and Mrs Berkeley followed before our car began driving out. Mrs Berkeley was dropped off first as usual and we all watched as she made her way inside the compound in which her
Jason's POVI headed towards my car after escorting Liam and his business associates out from the launching event and a guard opened the door for me even before I got close enough. After I walked into the car, someone put my briefcase in beside me before the door was shut.It had not been too long after I started going home when my phone started ringing and I picked it up only to see that it was Cassandra. Was something wrong? Or did they forget anything?"Hello Jason," she spoke once I answered the call."Hello Cassandra, is anything wrong?" I questioned in response."No, not at all. I was just calling about the date," she said making me relieved but curious at the same time."Oh really, what is it?" I asked her."So... I was just... Liam just told me that he already planned to go out with me this evening," she revealed.Hmm, Liam was really beginning to try harder to be closer to Cassandra. He must be really scared of losing her and I understood that feeling, but it was no excuse fo
Cassandra's POVI had become regretful that I invited Jason to join Liam and I on our date once I saw the venue and realized that Liam actually had been planning something huge for our outing. However, that was just the tip of the iceberg as the date itself became another reason to have deep regrets.Liam and I had been in the venue of the outing for quite a while before Jason joined us and when he finally arrived, I had to stand up to get him as he was being denied access.As we moved through the decorated room and I led him to the dinner table which had candles arranged on it in a romantic way, I began to feel embarrassed in addition to my regrets in inviting Jason to this outing. I had never liked receiving or giving affectionate gestures in public so having Jason with us in this kind of setting made me feel really shy."Hey Liam," Jason spoke as soon as we got to the table and began sitting down with a weird expression on his face."I had already began doubting that you would come
Cassandra's POVIt was like I couldn't breathe properly again after my eyes landed on that stain. There was a heavy weight in my chest and my head ached terribly as I tried to assimilate what I had seen.Jason must have been smooching with Ana for her lipstick to be smeared on his face. I had imagined that Jason would kiss someone in his office today but I thought that person would be me, not Ana. He didn't even care that I was leaving his office since he had obviously now reconciled with her."How come you're already leaving? Are you too ashamed to continue now that I caught you in the act?" Ana's voice filtered into my ears as I tried to surreptitiously leave the building and I stopped in the middle of my steps.What was she still doing here? Wasn't she already leaving? Or did she stay outside to wait to see how I would react on realizing that they had reconciled? She was probably just taunting me now, knowing that I probably saw what she wanted me to; the fact that she was still t
Jason's POVEverything was so fucked up. How had I manage to get myself in a ditch just in a few minutes? This all began when Ana came to my office while I was waiting for Cassandra who I invited to come over.My eyes had lit up on hearing my secretary announce that I had a guest but dimmed just as quickly as I realized that Cassandra's arrival wouldn't be announced in that manner."A guest?" I echoed what she had said in slight confusion as I hadn't been expecting any visitor and couldn't tell who would want to see me."Yes, sir. It's... It's umm...""Why are you stuttering?""It's emm..." She trailed off again."Who is the guest that came to see me?" I asked her just as I heard a hiss over the phone that certainly hadn't been from my secretary."I'll just go in since you're not ready to inform him of my presence."'Ana,' I swiftly realized who had the new voice just as the door of my office opened to reveal the exact person I thought it was."What do you think that you're doing here
Cassandra's POVI was presently feeling extremely cranky right now. I had been feeling this way the entire day but it was now that I had the time to dwell on it as the driver was just taking the boys out of the house which meant the task of preparing the kids for school was finally out of the way.Why was I feeling cranky? Very easy question to answer, it was because I didn't get a good night's rest. And that was because I missed having someone in bed with me. Hell, I didn't miss having just anyone in bed with me, I missed having Jason in bed with me.Wasn't it so silly that I would miss him when I didn't even feel anything when Liam left the house? It was really crazy and I knew that but that was just the way I felt.I wanted Jason with me at every moment of the day, even if we wouldn't kiss or do anything sexual. I just wanted him in the same room that I was in, so that I could hear him, and smell him.Jason was like a very unhealthy craving that I couldn't break free from. I totall
Jason's POVI thought I saw regret in Ana's eyes after I reminded her that she was now in the position I had been in while we were married but I quickly waved that imagination out of my head. There was no way she was sorry for what she had done in the past.How did someone even suddenly become remorseful for what they did years ago? If she really regarded me as all she cared about like she claimed, she would have realized her wrongdoing earlier on, before we even got divorced, and sought my forgiveness.She was only coming back now because she was just too proud to be comfortable with being replaced. There was also the fact that she was probably ashamed that I now had children with a person she set me up with herself and that the same person was someone she had been friends with."Can you step away from my car door now?" I breathed out and she swallowed."I'm going to let you go for now...""Good," I commented, intending to cut her off."But I still have my eyes on you," she continued
Ana's POV My eyelids flared as Jason accused me of being the one who set him up with Cassandra and I felt like throwing something at that moment. Jason was still as frustrating and annoying as he had been when we were married.I may have been the one who orchestrated their first encounter but I only wanted them to have sex with each other for one day. I didn't want them to get into any extra relationship and continue maintaining contact with each other.If I could, I would have even killed off those little brats that she gave birth to so as to make sure that Cassandra didn't have any relationship with him but I couldn't even dare or else Jason would have my head on a stake.He had always wanted children so much and I wasn't ready for that but he wouldn't listen if I tried telling him. I was forced to secretively make sure that I didn't get pregnant by minimizing sex between the both of us and taking pills whenever we did.'So why are you now pissed that someone else did what you

Cassandra's POV “The door is open," I squealed as Jason tried to kiss me, pointing at the door then walking out.I had to admit to myself that I really wanted to kiss him though, it was as if I was addicted to his taste. Only getting close enough to smell him made me so excited."I'll have that kiss later though," he promised as he caught up with me after shutting the door and laced his fingers through mine."Jason!" I protested in a whisper."Fine, fine," he conceded and let go of my hand. "I just always have the desire to lay my hands on you whenever I see you.""After holding me for so long yesterday?" I taunted."Especially after that," he winked at me and I nudged him before walking ahead of him to get to the boys."Okay, we're here," I announced as we came out of the corridor, arriving in the sitting room."Daddy, can we turn on the television?" Justin requested."No, how is that the first thing you want in the morning?" I answered before Jason could speak. "How come you a
Jason's POVI smiled as Cassandra walked out of my room already dressed up because she wanted to be back in her room before the children would wake up. She was really such a beauty and so sexy that I kept on having hard-ons."You had better stop thinking about her if you don't want another hard-on," I told myself and moved to my wardrobe to pick clothes.But it was so hard not to as she was all that filled my mind once I wasn't thinking about anything important. Sometimes, the thoughts of her even drowned out important issues. I was that deeply attracted to her.I remembered how she wanted to cum but thought that she needed to pee and bursted into laughter. She even lost consciousness briefly after climaxing. How was she so naive and yet she had been dating someone for years? They were even engaged!I had only started suspecting that they actually hadn't gotten physical when she seemed to really be into me but my assumption was confirmed when she told me that she needed to pee when sh
Cassandra's POVJason and I went to shower together, touching each other again while bathing until I finally left him in there and came out. I quickly dressed up and by the time he finally came out, I was leaving the room.I kept looking around for maids as I headed to my room but luckily, didn't see anything till I entered my room. I sighed in relief once I was in my room and then jumped onto my bed happily as I reminisced on everything that had taken place the previous night.After lying there for a while, I changed clothes and went to check on my phone once I was dressed. My eyes widened on seeing three missed calls and I suddenly remembered that I had told Liam I would call him back when he called while we were in the park.Like I expected, I saw that it was actually Liam who had called when I picked up my phone and quickly called back with my heart beating fast. While I was having fun with Jason, my fiance was waiting for me to call him back."Liam?" I spoke up once he answered t
