"Good question, I have a plan, but I need your total commitment. We will use everything to take back what belongs to us?" Mrs Haward said and both James and Mirenda raised an eyebrow, staring at her. "Let's go to my room," Mrs Haward said, knowing the old man was around and could drop in on them anytime. Mrs Haward was very much aware of the old man's love for Jason and even though he appeared to be invisible in the house since the death of her husband, he would always want to get involved in anything that had to do with Jason. Mirenda and James followed Mrs Haward into her room. The old man stepped out of his room a few minutes later and saw the trio going up the stairs. He ignored them and went onto the balcony instead. "So, what is the plan?" James asked once they were seated inside Mrs Haward's bedroom. "We will start by moving in to stay with Jason," said Mrs Haward, crossing her legs. "Mum, what excuse do we have to move in with him, a visit?" Mirenda questioned. "Yes,
Woke up married Chapter 15: We are your family
"We got evicted from the family condo," replied Mrs Haward, her eyes scanning the environment. Her skin crawled at the very thought of staying in Jason's apartment. She didn't want to be there but it was the only plan she could come up with within a short time. Staying apart will not help in executing her plans. Jason looked at the luggage and frowned. "What happened? I thought Dad, had that sorted out," Jason questioned. "Well, the rent expired without us knowing and, as per the agreement, there is a period within which the renewal needs to be done, or we vacate the premises. Unfortunately, we missed the deadline. We tried to get it back but the amount involved was unreasonable," Mrs Haward said and walked inside. "So, I asked myself, why waste all that money, when I have a lovely son who has his own apartment," she said, and made herself comfortable on the sofa. "So we decided to move in with you but only temporarily. At least till we get a new apartment," she said with a smile.

Mrs Haward watched the two, her eyes moving from Jason to Julia and vice versa. "Jason, for someone you claim to be your wife, I am very surprised by how you are behaving towards each other," Mrs Haward pointed out, and Jason snapped out of his thoughts, looking at Mrs Haward over his shoulders. "Shouldn't she be here welcoming you home with kisses?" Mrs Haward questioned, relaxing on the sofa. "Mum, it's nothing like that. She is my wife. It is just that she is going through a difficult time right now," Jason replied, and decided to continue climbing the staircase to his room, but he was stopped in his tracks by Mrs Haward's next statement. "Is she pregnant?" Mrs Haward asked, lying on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other as she flipped through a magazine she had picked from the magazine stand. "What!" said Jason, turning to look at Mrs Haward on the sofa. "I said is she pregnant?" Mrs Haward asked nonchalantly. "No," replied Jason with a frown. Aside from the day
Woke up married Chapter 17: Suspicious Acts
Lucky for both of them, Mrs Haward was still enjoying her sleep but Mirenda saw Jason and Julia leave the house together as she was coming out of the kitchen after getting her cup of coffee. Mirenda wondered where they were going and how they were going. Jason would not spend more than two minutes with a woman, irrespective of your reason. "He will keep a distance of not less than 2 m between himself and a woman, how can he be walking closely behind this lady?" Mirenda thought as she walked towards her room sipping her coffee. "Hello, Sis?" came James's voice, interrupting her thoughts before she could enter her room. "Hi," Mirenda replied. "Jason left for work already?" James inquired. "Yes, with his beloved wife," Mirenda replied and closed her door before James could ask any further questions. "Huh, it appears Jason is serious about this woman. He messed up my plans. It would be good to know if he went to work with her. It will be a piece of interesting news to give to Mu
Woke up married Chapter 18: Investigators at Work
Mrs Haward frowned on seeing Jason returning with the old man. Jason had a servant prepare a room for his grandpa without saying anything to Mrs Haward. Jason ignored Mrs Haward as he walked past her helping the old man to his room. Mrs Haward looked on as the two walked past her. "This can't be happening. How did he find him?" Mrs Haward thought as she bit her nails. "Does it mean he doesn't believe anything I say?" she thought. "Think Matilda, think?" she thought, pacing up and down the living room. "You raise this boy and know his weak point. Think of something?" Mrs Haward said as she continued pacing but immediately stopped when an idea hit her. Mrs Haward quickly went to the kitchen and prepared Grandpa's favourite drink, a strawberry milkshake. She placed it on the tray and carried it to the old man's room. "Can I come in?" came Mrs Haward's voice. Jason frowned, but the old man said nothing. "I just want to apologize," Mrs Haward said, still standing behind the door. Ja
Woke up married Chapter 19: The Marriage Certificate
Mrs Haward did not know her husband had found out what she had done. In her mind, she believes Jason may have found out about his father's will. She was just looking for something to confirm her suspicions but little did she know that her husband had arranged Jason's marriage. "Mum, look what I found?" Mirenda called out to Mrs Haward, snapping her out of her thought. "What did you find?" Mrs Haward asked. "It looks like Dad knew about Jason and his wife's marriage," Mirenda announced, showing her the marriage certificate which she had picked from Jason's room. "If my husband witnessed this marriage, it could only mean one thing. He knew," Mrs Haward thought, her colour draining off her. "Mum! Mum!" Mirenda called and shook Mrs Haward, realizing she was off. "If Dad knew about Jason's marriage it could only mean it was an important decision he had to make," Mirenda said after careful thought, knowing her father very well. "Mum, what are you not telling me?" she asked, looking at
Woke up married Chapter 20: Mrs Haward finds out about Julia
"Mum, how can you assign me to do this," Mirenda murmured in the shower. "She is gross," she added. Meanwhile, back in the dining area, dinner was over, and it appeared no one enjoyed their food except Grandpa. Mrs Haward left the dining area, went to the living room and started going through the TV channels. Jason descended the staircase to the living room and was glad to find Mrs Haward there. He walked up to her and looked at her for a while. "Mum, she is my wife. We are legally married. When the time is right, I will let you know the details. So I would appreciate it if you left her alone," Jason said. "She has been through a lot. I will plead with you to stop making life more uncomfortable for her than it already is," he said in a calm voice. "Wow, I never thought I would see the day, my little brother would go all out and defend a woman from his heart," commented James, who had just walked through the front door, making Jason and Mrs Haward turn to look at him. "You are in lo
Woke up married Chapter 21: Power over her
The phone slipped from Mrs Haward's hand, crushing it to the ground and shattering it into pieces. Everything started making sense to her. "Julia is my husband's daughter?" Mrs Haward repeated the words on her lips, and it felt like multiple needles went through her heart. She was using the excuse Jason was adopted to say he was not qualified for the position he holds right now in the family, only to find out he is the rightful heir by marrying the daughter of a Haward. "No this can't be happening, does Jason know the reason he married her that quick?" Mrs Haward thought. She picked up her phone, assembled it, turned it on, and called a friend. After talking for a while on the phone, she took a shower and went out to meet her friend. At the office, Jason sat behind his desk in deep thought. He recalled the incident that happened eighteen years ago. He was just six years old by then. His father, Mr Johan Haward, had gone to work and his mum, Mrs Haward, left him alone with the
