I knew Jaxson was a sweet and gentle man but I didn't know he was also romantic. He took me to a five-star hotel and when we went into the room, it was decorated with rose petals scattered around the floor and on the bed. I didn't know when he got the time and chance to plan all of these; my trip was on a short notice; it was impromptu, and even at that, he was still able to come to be with me here despite his tight schedule.“Are you surprised? Don't be surprised, Jane. I told your mom that I was going to take care of you so here you go.“I don't know what to say, Jaxson. How were you able to pull off all of these in such a short period? I am still shocked.“Let’s just say I have a lot of handy people around; all I had to do was call and they delivered. All I want you to do right now is relax, go into the bathroom, take a good bath, and come back. Let’s have something to eat.I forgot to mention that the room smelled like fresh water; the room was dark and only the candle lights were
“You won't believe who diverted the letters you sent to my office.At this point, my attention was drawn. I got up from the bed and walked towards Jaxson to get a clearer idea of what he was looking at. When I got closer to him, he passed his phone to me. I almost couldn't believe my eyes; it took me a while to understand and recognize who it was—it was Victoria. I almost couldn't recognize her for the first few seconds because she was looking very slim and her ass wasn't as big and succulent as it is now. I guess Jaxson pulled up the footage from her fears before she went for her BBL surgery.“That bitch!!! I’ve always known she was trouble; I wonder how you were able to keep up with her for ten years.“I cannot believe this! How can she do this to me? Why would she divert the letters? She robbed me of years of my children's life! I will make sure she pays for this.“What are you going to do to her?“I do not know yet but I will see to it that she loses her job.“How were you able to
“I need to go back to the hospital to be with my mom and my dad; I cannot afford to leave my mom there alone.“I have a meeting in town today but I will be done before noon. I'll drop you off at the hospital, then head to my meeting. I will pick you up when I'm done. Is that fine?“That is totally fine, but I didn't know you had a meeting today.“ Well, it was impromptu; I have been postponing the meeting with these new clients for months now. I just want to do it once and for all now that I'm in Ohio.“What!! You choose to have meetings with your clients at your convenience.“That is why I have Mr. Ali so I do not have to be running around. These clients can sometimes be problematic; they don't mind seeing me every day, and I do not have time for that.“Yeah, I understand you; I know how problematic they can be.I was still in the middle of a conversation with Jaxson when the doorbell rang. It was room service, and when Jaxson opened the door, it was our breakfast. I wondered why it
My heart jumped when I received that message from Sarah. She was about to end our friendship because of what her husband thinks. I felt a wave of sadness wash over me. I had never imagined that things would end like this. I had thought that Sarah and I had a special bond, one that was unbreakable. But now, it seemed like I was losing her forever. I wasn’t sure what to do. I wanted to fight for our friendship, but I also didn’t want to cause any more trouble between Sarah and her husband. I felt torn and conflicted, not knowing what the right thing to do was.I’ve always known Jacob to be a loving and caring man but ever since he got married to Sarah, he has become a total stranger. He changed for the worse. It was as if he had become a different person altogether. He was always irritable. He was never satisfied with anything, always finding fault and criticizing everyone around him. I couldn’t help but wonder if it had something to do with marriage, work, or growth. Perhaps the pressu
“The last time I saw you cry like this was when you discovered that you were pregnant with a stranger. Is it your father’s health that is stressing you?"No, mummy, it is Sarah. She called off our friendship because Jacob asked her to. I am so broken, Mom. We have been friends for over a decade and I don't know how to live without her.“Jacob told her to break off her friendship with you.“Yes, mum.We were sitting outside my father’s ward. My mom was looking for a perfect place to comfort me so she took me outside since the nurse needed space to attend to my dad.“I understand that you are hurt but I know Sarah too well; she definitely is too. “I don't think she is, mom. if she was, she wouldn't have sent me that message. She knows that it would break me but she sent it anyway.“I know Sarah loves you and you know that too, but you have to understand that a woman would do anything to protect her home; she would do anything to keep her home peaceful, even if it meant inconveniencing
I rushed towards my father’s ward. I saw the excitement that filled my mother’s face; she had a huge smile on her face. My dad was awake but he was still lying on the bed. He couldn't speak; he was still trying to make sense of the environment where he was. My dad's eyes darted around the room, taking in his surroundings. He tried to move his arms and legs, but they felt heavy and stiff. He tried to speak, but no words came out. He felt a sense of panic rising within him as he struggled to make sense of what was happening. He had no idea where he was or how he had gotten there. “Calm down, Dad; you are at the hospital.My dad finally spoke. His voice was so low and calm that I could barely hear him; his voice was barely above a whisper.‘Jane? Is that you, my child?Tears dropped from my eyes when I saw that my dad was straining his eyes to look at me. It looked like he was colour blind, maybe because his eyes were shut for a long time. "Yes, Dad, it's me.I moved closer and held
I was so excited to see Jaxson. I was speechless when he walked in. It is safe to say that I was lost in his eyes. I wasn't expecting to see him at that instant but immediately we locked eyes. It was magical. I struggled to break eye contact and he couldn't help but smile back at me.“You are back; I was just about to call you. How was your meeting?“Long and boring; I was almost dozing off.Jaxson paused and he looked above my shoulder and saw that my dad was awake at this time. He lowered his voice as she spoke like a shy teenager.“Why didn't you tell me your dad was awake?“ You just got in a few seconds ago!! And you’ve been staring at me ever since. Jaxson moved closer to my dad; my dad didn't see when Jaxson walked in because my mom was in his view. I never knew Jaxson was a shy person; he was walking slowly like a shy teenager who was about to ask his crush out for prom night. He walked slowly towards my dad and he gave him an innocent smile. My dad couldn't recognise him but
I couldn't tell who they were; they wore a black outfit with a black mask and it didn't look like they came to rob; they obviously came for someone. Why would anyone want to rob a hospital? So many unanswered questions raced through my mind as Jaxson shielded me from them. We ran to the same space and they seemed to be following us. Jaxson was busy protecting me, not minding if he was hurt or not. I could see blood stains on his shirt.My heart was pounding hard as she ran to safety, but they were still following us. I didn't know Jaxson had a short gun at his disposal. He brought it out and shot back at them. The whole place was scattered. There was no sign of a police van or siren blowing. If it were in New York, the very second they fired that shot, the police would have been running towards us, but this was different. Our safety lay in the hands of Jaxson and his short gun. I was so scared, I was visibly shaking. I have never been in that kind of situation before. I have faced s
