“What!!! Your uncle? Your uncle is the one after your life. Because of shares? Did your father wrongfully take the shares from you?“It is a very long story, Jane. I cannot begin to tell you everything now.“Well, you have to; you just endangered my life and that of everyone in this hospital. We are just lucky not to have anyone dead by now. So you just tell me what transpired. "Jaxson was about to speak when the nurse came into the emergency room; she didn't come for Jaxson; she came for me.“Jane Collins, right? For the first few seconds, my heart skipped; I thought she was the bearer of bad news, and I was so scared. I didn't know if she was coming to tell me anything good or bad. “Yes, is something wrong? “Nothing is wrong; your parents want to see you; they have been worried about you since the breakup of the hospital.“Alright, I will be right behind you.The nurse left and I fixed my gaze on Jaxson.“I do not want to leave you here all by yourself.He giggled a little. I wo
“You cannot escape my next attack; let’s just say you got lucky this time. Sign the papers, or else I will come for her family. I knew there was a serious one when Jaxson got up from where he was sitting. He was staring at his phone lustfully; he didn't say a word to me but I knew there was trouble. I knew something was wrong but I couldn't tell what it was at that point. I was only trying to guess.“What is it, Jaxson? Is something wrong? “We need to leave Ohio immediately!!! “What is wrong? What did you see? Jaxson passed his phone to me and I almost lost balance when I saw that his uncle was not only after Jaxson but also me and my parents.“What!! How did he find out about me? How did he know about my parents?“I do not know how to answer that question now but we have to leave as soon as we can.“I am not leaving until you tell me how your uncle found out about me.“Don't be naive, Jane. Do you want me to sit you down and explain to you how my uncle found out about you and ris
“Why are you always nagging? I never do anything to satisfy you; you always complain. I took them out of there for their safety. Can't you say thank you at least?“And who brought that danger to our doorstep? You did, so it doesn't sound like you are doing me a favor by protecting us from your uncle. “Do you even sit down for a minute and think before you talk sometime? Do you think this is easy for me too? I flew down to Ohio in the middle of the night just because I wanted to be with you. I'm doing all I can to show you how much I care about you but all you’ve been doing ever since is looking for little mistakes from me to hold on to. You are desperately looking for an alibi to hold on to. Can you be grateful for once? I know I put you and your family in danger but can you not see that I am trying my best to protect you all and bring us out of these? I was quiet at this point; guilt washed over me. I didn't know I was badly behaved until Jaxson drew my attention to it. I feel bad
Everyone settled down pretty well. My dad and my mom were placed in a very comfortable room. A doctor was there to attend to my dad and a nurse was on standby to check his vitals and administer his medications when needed.My kids were sitting in their room and they were busy on their iPads. They were so addicted to playing their games that they were no longer disturbing me. Unlike them before, they would be running around my room and dragging my phone. But now the situation is different.I was in the same room as Jaxson; I don't know how we ended up in the same room but I was happy that he was in my space. We all came down to have dinner except for my mom and my dad, who ate in their room. I was at the dining table with Jaxson by my side, my kids, Esther, and Jaxson’s cousin. I didn't know his name but I remembered that he was the one who confronted me. Thinking that I was a call girl or an escort, he wasn't yet aware that my kids belonged to Jaxson; he thought his brother was just
I was speechless. I looked at the papers and couldn't say a word to Jaxson. I was too stunned to speak. I was shocked and it felt like I was in dreamland. I couldn't believe that a house worth millions of dollars was bought in my name. I almost couldn't believe it if not for the fact that I was holding the papers. I wanted to speak but no words were coming out. “Jaxson, you didn't have to; you bought this for me? “It is just my token of appreciation to you for taking care of my beautiful kids. I must say, since they came into my life, I have found fulfillment; I have a reason to live again. I thought I had wasted my most youthful years living a very careless lifestyle. I was busy exploring everything while you were making sacrifices to take care of these kids. I want to ask you respectfully to let me into their lives as their father. I promise to take care of you all. I love and cherish every moment life presents to us.Please do not push me away. I would like to bond with my kids,
I was frozen on the bed; I never thought I would hear those words from Jaxson. It seemed like I froze in time because I didn't move or say anything to him.“You do not have to say anything back to me; you can take your time to decide what you want. I want us to be a family; please sleep over it. I want you to be my girlfriend and I promise to make things right. I promise to do right by you. “I don't know what to say, Jaxson; I didn't know you had feelings for me. “Like I said, I've always had eyes for you; it is just that you do not see it. Please say yes to me. You do not have to reply now, but just take your time and decide what you want. “I like you too, Jaxson, but I am scared; relationships never favor me. I was celibate for five years. I didn't want to commit to anyone because I didn't want my heart to be broken. “You are the mother of my kids, Jane. I would never do anything to hurt you, I promise.“ But you told me a while ago that you can never commit to one woman; you t
My heart was almost pumping out of my chest. Jaxson picked up my phone immediately because he heard Kieth’s voice on the phone too.“Who is this and what are you doing with my son? You better not hurt my child!!!“Else what? Jaxson? What are you going to do? I have a gun pointed at his head and I can blow his head off; you do not even know where he is.Jaxson’s eyes became red when he heard Victoria’s voice. He had always known her to be a psychopath but he never expected her to make such moves. There was nothing I could do at this point but plead with her. I was so scared. I've always known Victoria is dark in heart but I never knew that she could kidnap someone. Victoria was sounding revengeful on the phone; she was really in pain and I feared that she might hurt my child.“Please let him go; I'm begging you, Victoria. I will do whatever you want, please. Please do not hurt my baby.“ I do not want you, Jane; I want to watch you suffer. You took away my job; you took away Jaxson fro
I fell to the ground; everything was blurry; I couldn't see clearly; everything was white noise. The call had already dropped, but I could still hear the sound of the gunshot; it was playing on repeat in my head. Jaxson was yelling but I could not hear anything he was saying.Everyone was trooping into the room but I paid no attention to them. It felt like my soul left my body; I was on the ground, and I didn't respond to whatever they were saying. This was the first time I was experiencing such. For a few minutes, I thought I was dead; I thought I was already in the after life. I didn't want to believe or process what I just heard. Did they just shoot Kieth? Was my son dead? Was I dreaming? Was I hallucinating? I couldn't move but tears were flowing freely from my face. At this point, my mom came to pick me up. I still can't see clearly. I couldn't imagine the tragedy of losing a child. “Come, sit on the bed, Jane.“Let me be mom; let me stay here. My life is over; Kieth is gone! M
