You're too much

LillyI had never been as happy with someone as I was with Jake. Although our relationship came with a lot of limitations, it greatly improved on the quality of my life. i felt alive once again. I had not realised that I had been missing out on a lot for a long time. Having someone that makes you feel safe is underrated. It is the best thing in the world. To know that someone out there is looking out for you because he loves you is one of the best things ever. My fear of Kyle reduced when I was with Jake. The good thing Kyle kept a low profile during that time so I was able to relax. When I saw a photograph of him posing intimately with another woman, I felt relived. At least his focus would be away from me. If he thought those photos would make me jealous, he was barking up the wrong tree. My feelings for him had not been that strong, and had ended long before I ended the relationship.Jake was always there for me. He spent a lot of his free time at my place and I wasn’t complaining

Old is not gold

Ashley.Billionaire Mark Humphries did not like to be kept waiting. He would blow up a fuse if anyone did not promptly follow his orders. This was how I ended up forgetting the tracking phone liked to Jake’s at home, right before a two week vacation in the Netherlands. I only realised it when the plane was already in the air.“Fvck,” I said, immediately getting agitated. “Are you okay, darling?” the old man asked, glancing at me over the newspaper he was reading. “Yeah,” I said and rolled my eyes when he turned back to his paper.“What’s wrong?”“I realised I forgot something.”He placed the paper on the couch and smiled at me. “You do not need to worry about anything when you’re with me, sweetheart. You have my unlimited card. When we land, you can by whatever you wish. You can replace everything that you’ve forgotten with new ones.”What an idiot. Did he think anything could just be replaced with money? The man had lost touch with reality because of having too much money. The fact

Hospitalized

Lilly.“Kyle is here,” Leah whispered.“What?” I said, immediately starting to feel scared. “He’s two rows behind us,” she said.I waited for a minute before turning. My eyes met his. Instead of looking at the stand-up comedian on stage, he was staring at me. The familiar woman behind him was laughing hard at something the comedian had said. Leah’s held and squeezed my hand, giving me some reassurance. Kyle smiled at me and I turned back to face the front. My evening was already ruined. Even the funny lines the comedian kept dropping were no longer funny to me. I couldn’t wait for the show to be over so I could go far away from that jerk. Had he planned it? Did he find out that we were coming? I remembered telling him that I liked that comedian. He probably knew that if Justin Hayes was performing nearby, I wouldn’t miss. When the show finally got done, Leah and I were out within seconds.Most of the taxis had been taken by people who had come out first, those that had been seated

The son in law

Lilly.“Good evening, miss.” Jake said to Leah who looked like she was about to faint. “Good evening, Mr. Rylland.” She managed to croak out.“Hello little miss,” Jake said, crouching down to Amy’s level. “Hi,” Amy said. “Are you my auntie’s boyfriend?”My face heated up when Amy asked the question.“Yes, I’m Jake Rylland, and I love your aunt very much. What is your name, little princess?”“Amy Whitmore,” she said.“You’re a lovely child,” he said while placing the flowers and a package on the table. I was smiling while watching him. Jake leaned over and kissed me although I probably smelt like medicine. “So sorry this happened to you, babe. How are you feeling now?”“My head feels a bit heavy but I’m lucky to be alive,” I said.“Do you have any idea who might have tried to this to you?” he asked.After what Hailey had said, I was now also suspicious of his mother. What if she had somehow found out that I was seeing her son? It was only a matter of time until she found out. As evil

Confronting mother

Jake.Lilly’s near death experience changed everything for me. It reminded me of how short life is. I decided that the secrecy was over. I couldn’t keep my love under wraps anymore. It was time to let the world know I loved Lilith Hellman. To hell with my mother, the time had come for her to face the truth. I was not a child anymore, and I no longer needed her to fight my battles. i had grown and needed to stop calling her back to my side at every minor inconvenience. Lilly was in the hospital for two days. I visited her and it was reported to the media. I did not care. The media went into a frenzy, everyone trying to guess why I was visiting the woman who had been a thorn on my side a short while ago. Thankfully everyone who knew what the truth was did not reveal it. When she was discharged, she chose to go and recuperate from Leah’s house. I figured she chose to go there because she needed someone to take care of her. When I heard she was home, I immediately drove there. She seeme

My evil mother

Jake.“What is wrong with you, mother? How can you stoop so low as to blackmail your own son to do your bidding? What kind of mother are you?”“The kind that loves her son and wishes the best for him,” she said, taking her phone away. “From the start, Lilith Hellman’s motive was to destroy you. Even you knew it and that’s why you asked me to return home and help you. Because I loved you, I decided to come back and help. I did what I thought you wanted. You were happy that I got rid of that woman. I don’t know what happened, or how managed to fool you. Now you believe she is the good one and I’m the evil one. She wrote terrible articles about you, things that could lead you to being exposed to the whole world. I came and stopped that. I’m trying to separate you from someone who wants to destroy you. How sure are you that Hellman is actually in love with you and not trying to get close so she can get more information to publish? I have dealt with journalists longer than you, and I know

A great surprise

Jake.The birds were chirping and little rays of sunlight seeped through the curtains. I sat up and felt a mild ache on my back. It had been very long since I had slept that badly. After sacrificing the bed for Heather, I had no choice but to lie on the couch. I resented her so much I couldn’t be that close to her. It would lead to temptations that would have terrible effects. I had to let Heather know that I had moved on and had zero interest in her. If she thought we would end up getting back together, she was wrong. I stood up and went to the bedroom of the suite we were staying in because that was where the bathroom was.Clearly, she heard me coming because when I opened the door, she was seated on the bed, nude, and her big fake breasts showing. I didn’t feel anything so I just continued to the bathroom.“Good morning to you, too, grumpy.”I showered as fast as I could and left the bathroom. Heather watched me as I crossed the room and opened my suitcase. I searched through and f

What are friends for?

LillyAfter breaking up with Jake, I decided to focus on work. As soon as he left Leah’s house, I called our assistant editor to find out if there was any undercover job that needed to be done. Her answer was positive. Someone was needed to investigate a construction project for a government house. There were allegations of corruption and the people responsible were trying their hardest to squash the reports. I told her I would take the job and start as soon as possible. As soon as she confirmed that I could take it, is started doing my research. I was busy digging up and reading articles and reports when an entertainment news article notification popped up on my phone.“Jake Rylland and Heather Martins Reportedly Back Together.”The news hit me like a tonne of bricks. It was like someone had inserted a blade right through my heart. At first, I convinced myself that it was a clickbait article so I clicked on it to read what the article contained.The first thing I saw was a picture o

Have fun

Jake.I spent most of the day with Ashley while Heather sulked off and joined some group of lads. I knew she had called my mother who was most likely was angry at me for abandon her dream daughter in law. She was probably trying to call and threaten me every minute but unfortunately for her, my phone was switched off. She had no power over me without her threats.Ashley and I played several games and toured the island. Several paparazzi took pictures of us. I didn’t even want to know what was going out there. Media houses were probably wondering which of the two women I wanted. I had been photographed with Heather at some point and then with Ashley. I didn’t mind the attention, having gone numb. After losing Lilly, my heart had become numb and most of my emotions were off. That was why I was able to act callously to the two women around me. I did not care about them and their emotions. They were both adults who had chosen to come even though they knew I was not in love with any of th

Too late

Lilly.The break up with Jake really messed me up. I had placed so much hope in the relationship so I was shattered when it suddenly ended. I had not realised just how much I had grown to love him. I was so used to having him around that life seemed very bleak without him. I could barely sleep that night. By morning, I was feeling better but not good enough. I called in sick at work but the assistant editor threatened to take me off the undercover investigation team. I was, therefore, forced to get up and go to work. I later realised that it was better that way. Distracting myself with work was better than dealing with all the pain while locked in a room. I wore a disguise and went to look for a job at the construction site. The manager claimed there were no empty positions available. They were probably careful because they knew they were being investigated. However, that did not stop me. I went to a nearby restaurant and waited for lunch time while I worked suing my laptop. When lu
