Dunlop West

The next day at work, I couldn't stop thinking about what happened at the family game night. Hazel eventually left to make us dinner, while Jacob took over from Hazel and continued playing with William, Zion and I.

Zion was in the lead and was so happy about it, but then Jacob had to excuse himself to take a phone call from someone and, as expected, it was from Ranger.

When he came back, he put his phone on the table and continued playing the game with us. His phone screen didn't lock, and I couldn't help but look at it.

The app on display was his WhatsApp and he was texting someone called Luke, but something else caught my attention, and it greatly surprised me.

His WhatsApp wallpaper was a picture of Ranger, not only a picture of Ranger, but a picture of Ranger shirtless

What was going on? Something was definitely happening right under my nose that I couldn't quite wrap my fingers around.

Why does Jacob have a picture of Ranger as his wallpaper on his phone? Last time I

    Dunlop West While on the way home, we conversed about school and a lot of things and I kept thinking of a natural way to bring up Zion's father without hurting the boy's feelings or sounding weird. “Who wants ice cream” I asked, and they both jumped excitedly. I knew how much they loved ice-cream “Meeee” they both chorused, and I swerved the car, changing from the route home and driving to their favorite ice-cream place When we got there, William and Zion left their bags in the car and skipped into the building. I found a spot and took them over to sit while I went over to order ice cream for them I already knew William's and Zion's favorite flavors, so I had no problem making an order for them. The customer service was top-notch, and I got the ice-cream cups seconds after I ordered. I paid and left a tipI started walking over to our table, William and Zion spotted me and there was a noticeable anticipation and excitement on their faces when they saw me with the ice cream cups.

    Dunlop West “Eheemmm” I cleared my throat, and they turned around, acknowledging my presence. I wanted to release all the jealousy and anger that was stored up in me over the last few months of seeing them together, but I held back If I lost it now, I would have no chance with hazel. So, I just bottled up my feelings and put on a fake smile. “The kids are here” I announced Hazel went over to them and gave them a hug one after the other. You could see the genuine joy in her eyes as she conversed with them, asking them about school. That is one of the qualities of Hazel I loved. She was always radiant with joy. Her joy would have been radiated on to me if I hadn’t betrayed her love and trust. Camilla blinded me and now that the scales are off my eyes, I can clearly see what a great person I let leave my life. I was going to get her back. An easy way to bring her to love me again is to find out Zion’s paternity. If his was my son, there was no bond stronger than a parent’s bond and

    Dunlop West I got out of my car after I drove into BLC, and then I made my way inside. On my way to my office, I spotted Hazel as she was conversing with her assistant, Stacy. Why does she always have to be stubborn? I told her to take the day off, but she still came to work. I rolled my eyes and walked over to her. When she noticed my presence, she dismissed her and turned her attention to me “I thought I said you could take the day off. Why are you here?” I asked her “What do you mean, don't I work here anymore? Am I now restricted from coming here?” she said, answering my question with a question and making me feel guilty all of a sudden “What? No. You are always allowed here. You are the assistant CEO, remember?” I said quickly“Good. Then I don't have to take unnecessary days off”, she said, and walked off I didn't want to engage in any arguments whatsoever today with her, so I just made my way to my office. After I settled down, I took out some files and glanced through

    Dunlop West After Hazel agreed to take on our mini-journalist investigation, we analyzed and talked about how we could find out if the governor of Arizona was actually going to get impeached and why. We found a perfect way to carry out the investigation and I left her to get to work while I headed back to my office. I needed to get Zion's blood specimen. How was I going to get it? I couldn't just cut the boy's hand and take out his blood. I could take him to the hospital and Doctor Lamar could take his blood sample, but Hazel would definitely find out, and I didn't want that. I was still thinking of a way when I got a message from Jacob and I completely cringed at what I saw. It was a picture of Jacob in just briefs. He was flexing his muscles and in the caption of the picture he wrote: ‘Just thought, I’d send a pic of how good I looked today. I'm at your favorite place’ He ended the text with a sweat drop and an eggplant emoji with lots of hearts at the end. Why was Jacob sen

Whatever business proposition or idea he had, had to wait till I was done shopping.Ranger was in the mall with me too and I didn't want him to know I was getting him a gift, I wanted it to be a surprise. So I decided to send Ranger to Dunlop as a distraction while I found the perfect gift for himAfter Ranger left, I took my time to get the best gift that I knew he would love before I went back to Jay's corporation. Ranger took a whole lot of time at BLC, Dunlop must really have quite the business ideaI waited till closing time but still no sign of Ranger. I texted him and he said he was quite tired so he went back home. I guess the gift was going to have to wait till tomorrow.Instead of going back to Hazel's place for dinner like I usually did, I decided to just go home and rest. I would probably order my dinner. I didn't want to get her worried or wondering why I didn’t come to her pl

    Jacob WarnerI tried to get some sleep after the whole incident with Hazel the previous night but to no avail. I kept turning in my bed and suddenly developed insomnia.I only had three hours of sleep last night and my eyelids were heavy, but I was still going to make it to work today. I took a shower and dressed up. I always skipped breakfast. I picked up my briefcase and the gift I bought Ranger and headed to my carAs I drove to Jay's corporation, my mind was flooded with thoughts about what happened between me and Hazel last night. Were we really over or was it just one of her crazy tantrums?I got to the office and checked in on Ranger, and he wasn't at work yet. I must be super early then. I headed to my office and settled downTwenty minutes later, Ranger wasn't still at work. He was never late. I wondered what could be wrongI started with the day's work, and then I heard a knock on my door“Come in” I bellowed.The door knob turned to the right and the door opened to reveal R

    Dunlop WestAfter I saw Zion's birth certificate, I quickly took a picture before Hazel got back. When she got back she didn't notice a thingDuring dinner with Hazel and the kids, I kept looking up the name of the hospital where Zion was born, but it didn't show up in my searchesHis name on the certificate didn't help because he took after Hazel's maiden name instead of his father's name. So his name was Zion O'Brien Jonathan which gave no clue as to who his father was. The space for the father's name was left blank, making me even more confused, but I was determined to find out. A mother would never lie about her child's father, so Hazel must have slipped my name during labour.First thing in the morning, I called Ranger and reminded him about our plan to find out if Jacob liked him more than an employee. I suggested that he wear something suggestive but a bit official and make sure the seduction worksI really hoped with all my might that it worked. That way it would be easier to

Why did I even do that? The question in my head screaming at me was, why did I enjoy it?I had just cheated on Hazel with a guy and not just any guy, it was Ranger who she knew. She was going to feel so betrayed.I only talked to Ranger about business and acted like nothing sexual happened between us. Every time I looked at him, his eyes begged for an explanation or just to talk about what happened, but I refused to grant him that.Maybe, if we pretended like nothing happened long enough, we might actually forget that something happenedHazel wasn't even talking to me anymore, she acted like a stranger towards me.

    Hazel WestThe ballroom was alive with excitement, laughter echoing off the walls, and glasses clinking in celebration. I stood near the entrance, taking in the sea of familiar faces, all dressed in their finest and gathered to celebrate with us. I still couldn’t fully believe it—our wedding day, the day I officially became Mrs. West.Across the room, Dunlop caught my eye. He looked striking in his tuxedo, his hair perfectly styled, and that familiar, irresistible smile tugging at his lips. My heart did a little dance just watching him. After everything—the arguments, the breakups, the makeups, and every crazy turn in between—it all led us here. He was laughing with a group of friends, but his eyes kept drifting back to me, a soft look of reassurance and love in his gaze, like he was still making sure I was really there, that this was really happening.A waiter passed by, balancing a tray of champagne, and I grabbed a glass, taking a sip to steady my nerves. It was such a strange but

    Hazel West I had moved back in with Dunlop and the kids joy knew no bounds “Hey boy” I called out to William and Zion. It was time tell Zion that Dunlop was his real father and Dunlop was nervous and elated all at the same time I could feel the tension in the air as we gathered in the living room. Dunlop paced back and forth, his hands running through his hair, while I tried to stay calm, sitting on the couch with William and Zion beside me. Both boys were excited, oblivious to the weight of the moment. “Mom, what’s going on?” Zion asked, looking up at me with those wide, curious eyes that always made my heart melt. “Yeah, what’s the big surprise?” William chimed in, bouncing on the balls of his feet, unable to contain his energy. I took a deep breath, reaching for Zion’s hand, and Dunlop finally stopped pacing, coming to stand in front of us. He knelt down, so he was at eye level with the boys, his expression softening as he looked at Zion. “There’s something important we n

    He followed me seconds later, his body shuddering as he came, collapsing on top of me, both of us panting, drenched in sweat and rainwater. For a long moment, we just lay there, tangled in each other, the sound of our breathing the only thing breaking the silence. Finally, he rolled off me, pulling me into his arms, holding me close. “I’m so sorry, Hazel,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “I didn't know Camilla was going to try to drug me, I would have been more cautious. I'm sorry you had to see us like that” I rested my head on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart, the sound soothing, comforting. “I know,” I whispered back. “We’ll face everything together, Dunlop. No more running away.” “What suddenly changed your mind? You were so mad at me before and now you believe me? What happened” he asked running his hands in my hair I pulled away from him and looked at him “Your mother called and she advised me to put my emotions away and think clearly. And s

    Hazel West “Hazel wait”Dunlop yelled under the rain “Please don't go. I can explain everything” I ran over to him and jumped on him, engulfing him in a hug. I could sense his confusion as he wrapped his hands around me. “You don't have to explain anything, I believe you” I whispered still hugging him “You do?” He asked in shock as he dropped me “I do” I said holding his face “I'm so sorry I didn't believe you at first, I'm sorry I left you all by yourself” I leaned in and kissed him and his hands wrapped around my waist as he kissed me back I held his hand and we ran back inside. We headed up to my room and I barely managed to close the door before Dunlop’s lips crashed into mine. The rain had soaked us through, our clothes were clinging to our bodies, but all I could feel was the heat radiating between us, the cold completely forgotten. Dunlop’s hands trembled as he held my face, pulling back just enough to look into my eyes. “Hazel, I’ve missed you so much. I thou

I saw them naked together Camilla words kept ringing in my head ‘He'll always come back to me’“Mummy, we called grandma to talk to her on our tablet and now she wants to talk to you” William said peeping through the slight gap in my door “I don't want to talk to anyone. Maybe later” I sniffed “Hazel, I'm not asking if I can talk to you, I'm telling you that I need to talk to you” I heard Mirinda say from William's tablet.

I had Hazel and just like that I had lost her and my sons How do I prove to her that I had no idea what was going on and I was drugged?
