Chapter 3: Fabian's Property
Last Updated:
2022-09-20 03:41:59Diana told Jasmine she could only make her sandwich at the moment. Jasmine didn’t mind. All she cared for was getting something into her stomach. So Diana did make her sandwich which she ate. And then the two of them sat down to discuss Jasmine’s life.
Diana asked Jasmine to file for a divorce since Fabian has gone ahead to impregnate his mistress while still not treating her well.“If that was possible, I would have done that a long time ago. I’m literally Fabian’s property. I don’t think I can leave”. Jasmine interrupted when Diana said she knows a divorce lawyer.“But you clearly said you want to leave him, didn’t you?” Diana sounded shocked.Jasmine sighed heavily. She told Diana she was only saying things she could not do.“So what if he helped your family get out of debt? Is five years of slavery not enough for him? Do you have to stay there for a lifetime? Hasn’t he taken over your family’s business for compensation?” Diana said. She was angry.Diana told Jasmine that Fabian already got more than he deserved because her family was no longer benefiting from the business and that everything was already Fabian’s.“And that’s the point Diana! That’s the point! If I file for a divorce, I ain’t getting nothing out of that marriage. I’m just going to look for a way to get his mistress to abort the child”. Jasmine said looking weary.Diana told Jasmine she would not support her if she did such a thing. According to Diana, it was Fabian who was at fault, and he was the only one Jasmine should take action against.“You got me there all righteous priestess”. Jasmine said mockingly. Diana just shook her head. These talks wasn’t getting them anywhere. Jasmine will only go back to Fabian and continue with her misery just where it left her.“Aria is growing up really fast! Have you guys considered putting her in a boarding school”. Diana said trying to change the topic. Jasmine only shrugged and put the last chunk of sandwich into her mouth.Seeing that her friend was beginning to act nonchalant, Diana decided to leave her alone. She told Jasmine she was going to check on the kids and see if they needed anything. Jasmine was indifferent.Diana didn’t mind. She left Jasmine alone in the living room and went to Kelvin’s room where he was playing with Aria.“Hey my babies!” Diana said with a tone of excitement when she got inside the little boy’s room.“Mom go away! You are interrupting”. Kelvin said to his mom. Diana raised her brows. Her lips contoured upwards as well.“Go away! I’m teaching Aria how to be a princess”. Kelvin said. Diana smiled.“I just wanted to know if the princess and her teacher would be needing cookies or chocolate?” Diana said. She acted as though she was really going to leave them without waiting for their reply. But her feet were slow. She at least wanted to know if they needed something.“I want chocolate”. Aria’s tiny voice escaped her lips.“And cookies!” Kelvin added. He was quite bossy. Diana turned to look at them with a smile on her face. She told them she would be right back.“Kelvin?” Aria called questioningly. Kelvin asked her if there was a problem. She shook her head in the negative.“But…..” She said. Kelvin asked her what.“Why did you tell your mommy you were teaching me to be a princess when we are playing mafia?” Aria looked confused.Kelvin answered her by saying a girl mafia is a princess. Aria smiled acknowledging what Kelvin has just said to her. She admired Kelvin a lot. To her, he was her favourite teacher. Nobody teaches her like Kelvin.Soon Diana returned with cookies and chocolates for the the kids. Kelvin told Aria to take only one chocolate bar and focus more on the cookies. He told her eating too many chocolates will make her look ugly. And when she asked him what it meant by being ugly, he told her that ugly people can never be a princess. So Aria listened to him because she wanted to be a princess.Meanwhile, Jasmine who was a bit curious, especially because of her daughter, asked Diana how the kids were doing when she returned to the living room after dropping the cookies and chocolates with them.“They are good! Kelvin’s teaching Aria how to be a princess”. Diana said. Jasmine smiled. She told Diana that Kelvin was smart, and that's what made Aria admire him.“They are like siblings tied to each other”. Jasmine said. Diana agreed to this statement. The two kids were always close and acted more like siblings. Both friends chatted for a while only to realise they have been talking for a longer period than they had imagined.“I will be going back now with Aria”. Jasmine said when she checked the time and realised that it was already close to the time her husband returned home from work.Aria didn’t want to leave because she felt she was going back to a cage where the only person she get to speak with is her nanny and mother who were both adults that cannot speak a child’s language.“I want to stay with Kelvin!” Aria cried but Jasmine did not mind. She carried the little girl and walked away. But before they got past the door, Kelvin told Aria that princesses do not cry. So Aria had to force stop herself from crying. Jasmine told her they would come again as well. So, Aria decided to hold onto her mother’s words.Jasmine took a cab back to the mansion. On getting there, Jasmine discovered that her husband was already home. Fear gripped her. Fabian got home before her, that means she has just subject herself to torture. Fabian was definitely going to torture her for leaving the house. Worst was that she carried Aria with her. Fabian was against his little princess who he cared less about leaving his castle.Related chapters
When Tragedy Strikes Chapter 4: The Divorce Talk
Jasmine, knowing fully well what awaits her within those walls walked with her head held high. She had her daughter in her arms as she walked into the mansion. Fabian was there, standing with his back to the door that welcomes you to the interior. Madam Clautra rushed to take Aria from Jasmine. It was as though the woman already knew what would happen. She left with Aria in her arms leaving Jasmine and Fabian alone in the foyer. “You are back home early”. Jasmine said coolly despite the intense atmosphere. “Where the hell are you coming from?” Fabian asked Jasmine not replying to what she had initially said. “An apartment that’s like a pen compared to your mansion; there was love where I went”. Jasmine said calmly. Fabian scowled at her. Then with a deep darken voice, he ordered her to follow him. She scoffed, but she followed him as he led her to his study. Jasmine wondered why he was leading her to a place where he forbids her from going. He would never want her there. But sh

Two Weeks LaterJasmine woke up with a strong headache. She could barely lift her head off the bed, so she just stayed down for a while. She felt sore as well and wondered if she was falling sick.“I hope I’m not falling sick right now? I do not want to be a burden to anyone”. Jasmine said. She stayed relaxed for a while, then proceeded to leave the bed. She felt quite dizzy. Then she realised she was in a different place. It does not look like her home. She rushed towards the door wanting to look outside. Perhaps they changed the decor, that was what she thought. But she opened the door to find out that the hall was different and there seemed to be too many rooms along the hallway. She rushed back inside to find a man that was not there when she woke up. He had a towel loosely wrapped below his waistline, giving off a bit of his downside. “Who are you? And what are you doing here? I mean why am I here?” Jasmine asked all at once. The man wore a smirk. He took a few strides towar

She walked out of the bathroom without knowing if she was courageous enough to face her cheating husband who has succeeded in tainting her. But it never occurred to her that she would be unphased by the scene before her eyes. They didn’t change position. They were still on the bed, with Katherine’s head rested on Fabian’s chest. And Jasmine didn’t know where the laugh came from. Except for the fact that she was the one laughing, she had no clue what part of her was doing that. She walked into her dressing room where she looked for what to wear in her closet. Then she undressed herself, her eyes spotting the hickeys she was covered in from the mirror. Jasmine felt disgusted by what she was seeing on herself, but there was nothing she could do about it. She decided to act like she was not bothered by the hickeys. She dropped the jet black jumpsuit she has taken from the closet on the chair sitting in front of the mirror. All she needed was in that dressing room. She contemplated tak

Just as Fabian had said, by noon it had circulated all over the internet. The press had already taken it up, that the wife of Billionaire, Fabian Hart was a whore. Her sex tape was all over the internet. Reporters have surrounded the Harts company. And there were some who already went to the mansion. Fabian was in his office when his mother called. “Sir! You have a call”. His secretary, “Viose” said. Fabian at first did not want to answer his phone until the secretary told him it was from his mother, Mrs. Hart. Fabian took the phone, the call had already been disconnected, so he called his mother back. It was as though the woman was expecting his call, she did not wait for her phone to ring twice before answering it. “What is this that I hear Fabian? I thought you had control of that god forsaken woman you call your wife?” Mrs. Hart yelled at her son over the phone. Fabian could taste the disappointment of his mother in his own mouth. It tasted bitter, and he liked it. Even thou

“Children practice exactly what they see, they say. What example would Jasmine be teaching this poor thing now?” Katherine’s voice filled the almost empty hall. She was now in the foyer. It seems she had witnessed everything. She got to Aria before Clautra could. She leaned in closer to the little girl and whispered into her ears,“Your mother is being atrocious. She is evil. And she doesn’t mind doing it in front of you knowing fully well you might take her footsteps”. Katherine said to the 4 year old who just looked into space, probably trying to process what Katherine had just said. But then, confusion creeps into her face as she seemed unsure what to make of Katherine’s words. Katherine dragged the little girl outside with her. Clautra tried to stop her, more like she wanted to. But she was fearful of what Katherine could do to her. She hates Katherine. The woman was never up to no good. And if anyone questions her, she paint them black before Fabian’s eyes. ************Jasmine

Jasmine watched as Mrs. Hart’s car drove into the compound and parked in front of the mansion. The reporters were already trolling out of the compound one after the other. They met her by the gate. Mrs. Hart did not seem to come out of her car until all the reporters were gone from the compound. One of the reporters stopped to ask Jasmine a few question, but got attacked by Jasmine instead. Jasmine needed to pass out her frustration somewhere, and this reporter seemed to have asked just the right question to trigger Jasmine and make her go wild. “How many men have you slept with? Is your husband the actual father of your daughter?” The reporter asked Jasmine. And this got her the right reason to attack. It was the right reason for her, but not to those who turned on their camera on her to record her harassing a poor reporter as people had put it. They never cared to know what the reporter did. Jasmine was fined for assault and was detained for a while. When she was released on bai

Sixteen Years Later The hall was filled with people, people of high class, sophisticated bourgeoisies. Everyone wore a happy face now and then, a little smile to greet the person next to them. Even if it wearies them, they had to keep that attitude so they don’t look odd. By the telling of their clothes, you would know they are people who would never come across on the streets. Even the smell of them screamed affluence. And if you look closely, you could tell that there were classes higher than some. You could see the expression on everybody’s face. You could tell when someone is being looked up to and taken in awe. And you can tell when another person is being looked down on. That’s the difference, the difference in class. “I have been searching with my eyes and I am yet to find my daughter”. Fabian said. He was hugging the hand of a woman. And she was clinging to him as well. Katherine, once his mistress, now his wife. She has been by his side as his wife for sixteen years. They

“It’s good to have you around Aria. I must say I have come to miss you a lot after the last misunderstanding we had. I never expected you would talk to me back at your place,” Theresa said. She was standing by the door of Aria’s room. Although she had helped Aria carry her bag to the car before they left the mansion to the family house, she and Aria were yet to speak to each other. The only time Aria spoke with her was when she asked her to help carry her bag. “Get out! I do not wish to be disturbed right now,” Aria said. She did not even bother to look Theresa’s way. “Come on Aria! Why are you holding grudges against me just because I told you that you were keeping low lives as friends and that your boyfriend Eran was way too below your class,” Theresa questioned. She did not look like she was ready to leave Aria alone. Aria stood up from the bed on which she was lying. She walked towards the door and pushed Theresa out. Then she shut it. She went back to the bed but not without

Fabian shook his head as if in regret. Then he snatched his bag from Katherine’s hold and walked towards the door. But Katherine hurried her feet towards the door and stood in front of him. “Wake up Fabian! Someone is trying to raise a feud between us so that they can get what they want. Maybe not Aria as I had suspected, but it could be just anyone”. Katherine said while looking at Fabian pleadingly. Her eyes were moist and ready to let down the tears. If she was not a good actress, then she would not have made it this far with Fabian. “And who would want to do that?” Fabian asked with one eyebrow raised. “I don’t know! Aren’t supposed to work together in understanding for us to be able to find that out?” Katherine said suggestively. Fabian nods his head in agreement. He dropped his bag and then walked down to the bed. He laid there as he watched the ceiling. Katherine approached her husband, she lied right next to him, then she placed the palm of her hand on his chest. She
When Tragedy Strikes What A Pity
Aria watched as her grandmother whom she has liked no lesser than her father, stood there quarreling her father. She hated it, the noise they were making. She could never get used to it. For as far as she can remember, Her father and his mother don’t get along. She rolled her eyes and left the foyer, but soon returned with a bag in hand. “I’ll go with her,” Aria said as she nudged for Theresa to come help her with her bag. “Esa,” she muttered. Theresa smiled and walked towards Aria. She helped the bag out of her hand and they both walked out of the house. Mrs. Hart eyed Fabian disapprovingly, shook her head and walked away. Meanwhile, Fabian clutched his hands allowing them to hug his sides. He gritted his teeth as there was nothing else he could do. It was Aria herself who has chosen to go with his mother. He did not want his mother to take her. He was tired of her controlling attitude. “You always let your mother win,”. Katherine said while walking down the stairs. She
When Tragedy Strikes A Stranger To Her
…………………….The following morning, Jasmine woke up to see herself in an unfamiliar room. She wondered how she got there. Then she heard the sound of water. It was probably someone bathing. She placed her hands on her head in a bid to combat the headache that was threatening to pull out her skull from her scalp. Then she stood up from the bed wanting to leave the place. It had not occurred to her that she was barely clothed with just lingerie, one she was not wearing. But then Jack came out of the bathroom and he was a stranger to her. She asked him what he was doing in the same room with her and who exactly he was. What happened to her the previous night was yet to come to her. Jack asked her if she did not remember the night they shared. Jasmine was confused for a while. She had no memory of him, not to talk of sharing a night with him. Then she remembered the last place she was before she could no longer remember anything. It was at the rooftop of the building where they celebrated
When Tragedy Strikes Public Display
……………..Jack left the bar after confirming that his job was set for Thursday. He only had two days left before it’s Thursday. So he had all the time in the world to find out about the client and of course the object of his mission, Jasmine Hart. He did make his research and wondered why Jasmine’s husband would want to hurt his wife. But then, he could worry less about that. All he wanted was his money. And so, on Thursday night, Jack set out to the venue where the party was being held. He could not get in and was asked to wait outside while Rogers finds a way to get in. But Rogers was also restricted. Fabian’s secretary had instructed them to remain outside. He said he would signal them when the time was right. It didn’t take long after this incident, Fabian arrived with his wife Jasmine in hand. The secretary, Mr. Renold led them inside the hall where the company's anniversary was being celebrated. Jasmine thought she and Fabian looked like a perfect couple as they greeted dign

FLASHBACK“Can you do the job? Make it look like it is real?” Fabian asked. He was talking to a blonde haired guy. “I’ll arrange for it. I know someone who is perfect for this job Sir”. The blonde haired guy said. Fabian smirked. Then he told him that was all he wanted to hear. Then he turned to his secretary who was standing beside him. “Give him the details and pay him the dvance”. Fabian said and walked out of the apartment. They had gone to see the young man in his apartment. The secretary managed the transaction with the blonde guy telling him the venue as well as giving him a picture. It was a photo of Jasmine. She looked calm in the picture with her dark brown hair tied in a bun. “Is this her?” The blonde haired guy asked the secretary, but got no response. He just pockets the picture and said the job will be done. “Just make sure it looks real”. The secretary said to remind the blonde haired guy. He assured the secretary everything would be done perfectly well and that t
When Tragedy Strikes Killed Him
By the time Fabian got to the mansion, Kelvin and Clautra were done talking. But then, he did not bother the young man who has brought his daughter home. The first thing he wanted to do was see Aria, so he headed to her room. But Clautra stopped him.“Mr. Hart, I think it will be better you have a chat with the gentleman that brought Miss Hart home first before you see her. You know how she is”. Clautra said. He sighed. It was this bad, he could not get close with his own daughter. “Until when will she remain this way? Will Jasmine ever forgive me for this?” Fabian said. It was not necessarily a question for Clautra to answer to. And she knew better to keep shut at this point. Fabian went back down stairs to the foyer where he met Kelvin. At first he looked at Kelvin with hostility. Kelvin stood up to pay respect to Fabian since he was in his house. Fabian just looked at him despitefully. “Who are you to my daughter? Did you force her away from home?” Fabian asked neglecting the

“If I should pin you down to that bed, you’d not find the leg with which to return home”. Kelvin said to her with a smug look as he walked out of the room. “And who said I’d want to walk after that?” Aria said with a little bit of excitement before she followed him. They got to Kelvin’s car in the parking lot. Aria noticed two men both dressed in black. She frowned. They do not look like any of her father’s guards. Or did he hire someone else to come find her? “Rex, please step on the gas immediately you start that car. Do not waste any time”. Aria said. She would not want them to come take her. The thought of being dragged to a house she was already going to was suffocating to her. Kelvin noticed why she told him that when he saw the two men. He realised that Aria’s father must be worried for her. Despite all the allegations against him, he still wants to find his daughter. Kelvin then wondered if Aria will be arrested once she is found. Because it is now out that she was the one
