JANE'S POV

I was yet to get a positive reply from the cops; they were still busy interrogating Jacob. I was watching him interact with the cops when my phone rang. It was a call from my dad, and I knew he was going to call me back as soon as he received the money I sent.

“Hello dad.

“Jane, you sent me twelve thousand dollars?

"Yes, daddy, please book your doctor’s appointment for tomorrow. Do not hesitate to call me if you need anything.

“How did you get that large amount of money, Jane?

“Do not worry about that, Daddy; just focus on getting better. Can I talk to Mummy, please?

"Hello, mummy, Please come back to New York so I can be closer to you and dad.

"Jane, I hope you are not doing anything I won’t be proud of. How did you get that amount of money?

“I’m not doing anything illegal, mom; I'll tell you everything when you come back to New York. I got a new job at an art gallery in Schenectady, mum. I resumed today.

“That is amazing, Jane. I am so proud of you,

    JANE'S POV Are you sure Keana knows what she is saying?“I know my daughter too well, Bryan; even though she is five, she is very smart; she cannot lie about a thing like that.“Finish your food; let’s go then.“Finish my food? I lost my appetite already; let me inform Jacob. I highlighted the car but Bryan called my name and I looked into the car from the window.“Don't you think we should go confirm first before you tell him?“What Jacob did to Sarah was terrible but I've stayed with this man for hours and I can see a broken man; he is broken, Bryan. I’ll tell him so he can free himself from self-pity and torture because he thinks Sarah jumped into the water with Baby Daisy.“OK, if you say so. I walked to Jacob’s car; he was sleeping. I taped on the glass and when he woke up, he used his arm to shield the sun from coming into the car so he could see who was standing. His eyes were red and swollen. I could tell he was crying for a long time.“Sarah is in my house

    JANE'S POV Everyone dropped their cutlery, and Jacob moved closer to Sarah."Babe, I'm sorry. Please do not divorce me; my world is empty without you. I regret my actions and I promise never to hurt you again. I would do anything you want.“For months, I've been trying to get you to look my way. You were carried away with whatever was keeping you occupied. I had surgery, Jacob, to give birth to your child, our child, and you were on vacation with my cousin. I was battling for my life on that hospital bed but you were busy screwing another woman in my matrimonial bedroom. You are so wicked and heartless, Jacob; I don't think I can ever forgive you for that.“Sarah, please don't leave me; I promise to be by your side. I'll do right by you. The most important people in this world to me right now are you and baby Daisy. Please give me one more chance. Jacob was on his knees. I felt pity for him but his offense was grievous. I couldn't beg on his behalf because Sarah wa

    JANE’s POVCould my eyes be deceiving me? Do I need to start wearing glass lenses? I recognized the figure walking and looking around the gallery; he walked past me. Could it be that Ben didn't see me or is it that he couldn't remember me? I won't blame him if he doesn't recognize me. I was very skinny when I was still in high school. I faced my painting but this time I stopped vibing to the music. I struggled to maintain my posture.“Excuse me, please, where can I find the Sunrise painting? It is from the last season’s collection. Is it still available? "No, sir, it is not, but we have so many new paintings; you can look around; we have something similar to that. I was talking but somehow I was interrupted by him.“Do I know you from somewhere? “I don't think so, sir. I knew he was going to recognize me but I wasn't ready for any unnecessary pleasantries so I acted like I hadn't seen him before.“You look familiar; have we met before?“I don't think so, sir. D

    JANE's POV I heard the door bang as if a force pushed it; it was so loud that I thought it was the force of the wind. When I saw Sarah walking angrily back to her seat, I knew there was something wrong.“Who was at the door? And why were you yelling like that? "It was Jacob but he left already. Sarah was focused on what she was watching; she was watching CNN news. And pretended like nothing happened.“He left? You should have let him in, at least.“Are you kidding me, Jane? And what will he be doing when he comes in?“To see baby Daisy, of course.“Don't say that, Jane; I can't let him touch my baby with the same hands he used to squeeze Annabel’s butt.“I can understand the fact that you do not want to see him but please do not push him away from baby Daisy.“I reconnected with Jojo on Facebook today. I knew Sarah was trying so hard to change the topic but the news she told me was exciting. We were all duos in high school.“Wow!! How is Jojo? It's been ages.

    JANE's POV So Ben was cheating on me with Jojo back then? I stood up and looked for Sarah but I couldn't find her. I walked forward and saw her talking to the bartender.“Sarah, we need to leave now.“What is wrong? Jane, it is not even 11 p.m. yet; please chill a little.“Did you look at the screen, Sarah? "No, I didn't; I was looking at the bartender mixing my drink.“Look at the screen. Sarah and Jojo got married to Ben. Ben is Jojo’s ex-husband.Sarah turned to the screen but she turned and acted like it was nothing.“OK, so why are you fussing about it? “Are you kidding me, Sarah? Ben was my high school sweetheart! How can you not see anything wrong with that?“That was decades ago, Jane; you guys broke up a long time ago.“Don't be ridiculous, Sarah. You know what happened between us; it was Jojo who forced me to write that breakup letter to Ben; she literally forced me to break up with him.“He was toxic for you, Jane; he was too obsessed and he was driving

    JANE's POV I stood. I felt a cold sensation down my spinal cord; it felt like I was gradually losing air.“Sarah? You said those words to me? What did I do to deserve such hurtful words from you?“Just stop trying to be my mother; you ain't my mother. All you have been doing since I got out of the hospital is telling me, “Don't do this, don't do that, don't eat this, no, don't drink that.” You want me to end up miserable like you.Sarah left me and Jacob standing as she walked and went inside. I was too shocked to speak. Where did all that come from? Tears dropped from my eyes. I couldn't control the tears that rolled down my face. What has come over Sarah? She has never spoken to me in that manner before. Even when we had a major fight, she was always the one to apologize first, but this time, it was as if a demon possessed her. I couldn't recognize my friend anymore; she was the total opposite of the person I knew.“I’m sorry, Jane. Please ignore everything Sarah

    JANE's POV After the kiss, I was so shy that I looked away as I packed my stuff and highlighted from the car. I got in and the staff at the front desk was looking at me. She was too noisy and I hate people like that.“Jane, that guy is really cute; is he your husband? Or fiance or boyfriend?“Face your job, Caro; it is none of your business. I walked to my duty post and immediately dropped my bag. HR invited me to her office. I thought I was in trouble for coming in 2 minutes late, so I got there and met a man there with her.“Hello Jane, Welcome to work. I've introduced you to all the staff here but here is the manager, Mr. Ali. You’ll be seeing more of him around. Mr. Ali met Jane, the new artist, and also the floor supervisor.“Nice to meet you, Jane. I look forward to creating an enabling environment for us to work in unity as a team.“Good morning, Mr. Ali, I look forward to working with you too."So, Miss Jane, what is your schedule for today?“I need to co

I should have fought for our love back then, in high school. Maybe we would be married with kids by now, but it's never too late to correct the wrongs. I want to have a taste of this beautiful and soft body of yours. You didn't allow me to have sex with you back then, but now I'll make sure I explore every inch of your body.I was so scared and I was sweating badly. My hand was above my head and Ben was on my body. I couldn't move. He was about to take off my clothes when I had a free chance to move my legs. I gave him a kick on his balls, picked up my bag, and ran out of the house.I drove out like someone was chasing me. After I got out of his estate and drove for about ten minutes, I parked somewhere and put my head on the steering wheel, and I began to cry. I was visibly shaki

    Life, they say, is not a bed of roses. I have had my share of ups and downs. I had gone through a lot in life to raise my kids as a single mother and even when my children’s father showed up, it didn't get easy; rather, it became tougher. It wasn't a smooth ride but I am glad for all the challenges I was able to overcome. I was unconscious in the hospital for a month. Family members were scared, but they didn't give up on me because they knew I was a fighter. The first person I saw when my eyes were open was Sarah; she was right beside me praying when my eyes were open. I guess the heavens heard her prayers. But when my eyes opened, I wasn't pleased with the view I saw. I almost couldn't recognize her for the first few seconds because I was color blind. After a few seconds, I saw her face was brutalized; she was looking pale and malnourished. I taped her softly to let her know that I was awake. I was still very weak so I couldn't talk. She almost jumped out of her skin when she saw

    I slowly collapsed to the ground. I didn’t know what it felt like to be shot; I couldn’t explain how I felt at the moment. I was in pain, but I couldn’t say a word. It seemed like I was unconscious, and I was losing blood rapidly. Jaxson held me mid-air so I wouldn’t drop to the ground. He tried to chase the criminals, but they drove off. He didn't get to see a face but the camera out of the pharmacy picked up their faces. Jaxson wanted to pursue them, but he couldn’t leave me there. He panicked and he didn't know what to do. He pulled out his phone and called 911. The condoms Jaxson bought fell to the ground, and it wasn’t important at that moment. He rushed back to me and lifted my head up.“Jane, please talk to me; please say something. I was not responsive; I was far gone. I didn't know where I was but it felt like I was sleeping. I was unconscious and I was losing blood. The ambulance came accompanied by the police van; they placed me in the ambulance immediately and started

    “ Dad died many years ago. Mom. You had a lot of time to make amends but instead you drifted away like I’ve always remembered. So do not use that as an excuse.“ To come back, Jaxson, I tried to be close to you, but you already hated me; you were so far away. There was no mother-son connection anymore. You are no longer the son I used to know that your father had brainwashed you into thinking that I was the bad person when, in the real sense, he was the monster. “ Why didn’t you say anything, Mum? Why didn’t you tell me my father was abusing you?“ You never gave me a chance; your father brainwashed you into believing that I was a careless mother. Nothing I said would’ve made sense to you. Tears were rolling down Jaxson‘s face, and I wasn’t happy with that. I hated to see him that way. “ I’ve always thought you never loved me. I thought you hated me and I’ve carried that pain all through my entire life. I hated you for no reason; I didn’t know you were going through so much. “

    "You have grown so much more than the last time I remember. You were just my little boy a while ago, but now you’ve grown to be the father of three beautiful kids."Stay away from my family and me; I am not your son. Do not call me that. I tried to signal Jaxson to take things easy on his mother, but he wasn’t having it. He was still blowing hot. “ I am back here to make things right. I know I wasn’t the great mother you wished for, but I am here to make amends. Please give me the chance. Do not push me away."You lost the right to do that a long time ago. You do not even care about me, so stop pretending.“ Is that what you think, Jaxson?“ That is not just what I think; that is what you have shown me ever since I was a child. You never cared about me, and even when my father died, you moved on so quickly that you didn’t even care if I was hurting or not. You are such a wicked person and I do not want to associate myself with you. “ That is what you grew up to believe, but I actua

    Jane, you are an amazing woman, my life changed at the moment I met you. The first time I saw you on my rooftop at the party I organized. I know I found someone so rare and true.You looked so beautiful in your shimmer dress, that I couldn’t get my eyes off you all night. The long conversation we had through my soul and I knew from that very moment that you were going to leave there forever. I was with you in that room, and I didn’t want the moment to end, reconnecting with you at Bryan’s office was like a miracle, and every single day I wake up, I thank the sun, the moon, and the stars for bringing you my way. I have been fighting these feelings because I’ve been scared of commitment, but not anymore Jane. I want us to live as a happy family with our kids. There was a pause from Jaxson’s end, it took him a little over five seconds to continue from where he stopped. “ Jane Collins, please do me the. Will you be my wife please marry me.

    I didn't know how Bryan and Jaxson settled the fight or how it ended but the only thing I could see when I woke up was that I was lying down on Jaxson’s bed. I was conscious of the fact that I was awake but my eyes were still closed. I opened my eyes gradually and saw Jaxson seated beside me. He fixed his gaze, and he struggled to break eye contact.He was so excited to see me awake and he held my hand as he gave me a faint smile. “ I was patiently waiting for you to wake up, Jane. I was so scared. I didn’t know when you were going to wake up; I almost took you to the hospital. It was after Jaxson spoke that I realized that my head was banging. I used my arms to hold my head firmly. “ Here, something for your headache. You will feel better once you take the painkillers.Jaxson handed me some painkillers and I took them with some warm water. At that point, I still couldn’t recall what had happened. I left you on the bed, trying to remember everything that happened. My brain was bla

    I was so confused, my heart started beating fast, and I didn't know what to do at that point. Everyone fixed their gaze on me and it was as if I were the villain in Bryan’s love story. I was sitting but the chair became uncomfortable the moment Bryan mentioned my name. Jaxson started rubbing his arms and I could tell that he was not in a good mood. “I dare you to embarrass me in front of everyone, Bryan? How dare you? All I've ever done is in your best interest. I’ve made sacrifices to protect you. I chose a good bride for you from a wealthy family; I chose her from a family with prestige and yet you want to trade that for a single mother of three? Do you want to drag this family name into the mud? I will not sit back and watch you crumble everything your father has worked hard for in the name of your silly infatuation. “It is not an infatuation, Mom; I love Jane.My seat was burning, and I was slowly dragging my butt away from the chair. I was uncomfortable, and I wanted to leave.

    Bryan was acting weird when he saw us together. Jaxson gave him a hug, but he kept looking at me. He fixed his gaze on me and it made me feel uncomfortable. I didn’t know I was going through mine, but I knew for sure from the way he was looking at me. He wished I was the one he was getting married to instead.I simply put up a smile so I wouldn’t come across as rude. At this point, the bright father walked her down the aisle and took her up to meet her soon-to-be husband after they took their vows. Jaxson was smiling sheepishly; he was so happy. His friend was finally settling down, and he was going to start a family. The joy on Bryan’s mother's face was everything; she was the happiest. Bryan wasn’t half as happy as she was. Her smile was palpable, and everyone could see it. The bride was very happy. She was smiling at each step of the way she walked, and even though I didn’t like her, I couldn’t stop admiring her outfit and her aura. She looked so beautiful, and I almost couldn’t r

    It was a cool and breezy day. I was seated by the side of the window, sipping my dark coffee, and I was enjoying the view of New York City. This was the feeling I usually get from my new home, the house Jaxson bought for me, but this time I was in his house. I was in a secret house, the one he took me to the last time. It has been three months since Keith was kidnapped; he has gone through a series of therapies, and it is safe to say that my son is doing well. I woke up happy that day because the universe was finally giving me peace, thanks to gradually falling into pleasant places for me and my family. My dad’s health was improving as the day went by, and I was so happy to find out that he was able to walk out on his own, even though it was a short distance, but he was able to walk with his legs again. Above all of this, it has been three months without Sarah in my life. It hasn’t been easy but with the help of Jaxson, I was pulling through every day. Most days I spend my nights c
