All Chapters of Mr. Eddy’s Barren Wife : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The ticking, clicking and clacking of the computer keyboards filled the air in the office Natasha Jones sat in. She looked elegant in her white tank top, blue palazzo pants and blue blazer. She parked her golden brown hair in a rough ponytail, exposing her glitter earrings. She wore her Tom Ford reading glasses and kept her head on the desk. She felt so tired and wanted to sleep for just a few minutes. But how could she do this? She had a lot of paperwork and cross checking to get done. She tiredly lifted her head from her desk and looked at the screen of her computer. She picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip. All of a sudden, she heard a loud bang from her right side. She flinched and looked to her right. She saw the manager storming towards her, and she felt her heart stop when she noticed he was fuming. “Natasha Jones!” He yelled, and she sprang to her feet. “Mr. Manager!” “I need you in my office now! This time, I don’t think I can help you, Mrs Jones.” Natasha gulpe

“Grrr! Grrr!! Grrr! Grrr!!!” Natasha’s phone rang so loud that it cut across the room and filled the air. She shook her head and instantly snapped out of her sleep. She sat up and reached for her phone which was next to her. She looked at the caller and realized he was Mr. Manager. “Mr. Manager? Oh my… what could be the problem this time?” She answered the phone and anxiously placed it on her ear.“Mr. Manager?” She called. “Mrs. Jones. Good morning, and how are you today?” “I planned to wake up on the right side of my bed today, but unfortunately, I’m on this call with you. Please, Mr, Manager, tell me everything's alright.”“Everything isn’t alright, Mrs. Jones. You know this very well. After serious account balancing and checking, it was found out that the payment of $12 million to one of our clients was made twice because you failed to record it when it was first paid. Now, you have to repay the $12 million.” “Oh God…” Natasha yanked the duvet off her body in frustration an

“So Eddy Gracias would be coming here today? Have you even thought about this?” Olivia asked as she sat in Natasha’s room. “What can I do, Mom? I can’t go to jail. If he wants to get married to me, Fine. I am no weak woman. He shouldn’t expect me to act like a housewife or something. I am not ready to fall in love. And I bet he is also doing this for a reason apart from love.” “I told your father about it, and he decided to stay home today.” “Really?” She hurriedly sat up. “Doesn’t he have work today?” “He does, but he wants to meet him too. He’s been so busy lately that I had to tell him myself. Most times when he comes back from work, you’re always fast asleep.” Natasha sighed and brushed her rough hair backwards. “Please don’t tell me he wants to talk to Eddy about this. I don’t think that would work.” “Well, at least we’d give it a try! Don’t you think? We can’t just give you up to another man. What would people say?” “I don’t care what people would say, mom. They would sa

~ After the wedding~ As the driver drove Eddy and Natasha into Eddy’s Villa, Natasha’s mouth fell wide open. It was the biggest Villa she had ever seen her whole life. Alongside finding Eddy’s villa as a mystery, she couldn’t wait to get out of the excess fabric on her body. The wedding dress felt quite heavy on her, but she couldn’t complain. It wasn’t only the dress she had issues with, even the fact that they invited almost everyone in Washington didn’t sit well with her. She could bet with her life that her ex-husband Leo must have heard about it, if not attended. Eddy, on the other hand, wasn’t ready to say anything to her until when necessary, so throughout their journey back home, she didn’t even hear his voice. ‘I guess I have to get used to this new life.’ She thought. After the driver parked the car, Eddy was the first to get out. He began to remove his suit as he headed into the house. “Haa.” Natasha sighed loudly as she watched him walk away. She was about to open t

Eddy was back at his business a day after his wedding. He was in his office, going through the activities of the days he had been absent when the telephone began to ring. He breathed out heavily and picked up the phone. “Mr. Eddy, a man named Leo Jones is here to see you, but he says he has no appointment with you. I tried turning him down but he kept insisting.” Eddy creased his eyes as the name rang a bell in his head. “His last name is Jones?” He further asked. “Yes sir, and…” “Let him in.” Eddy butted in with a smirk. He hung up and chuckled hard. ‘Leo Jones. I wasn’t expecting that, but okay.’ He raised his brows as he thought. After about a minute or two, the door to his office opened and a young man walked in. He wore a blue shirt and white pants. He looked like he was headed to his office. “Look who we have here.” Eddy uttered, keeping his smirk on. “Hi.” Leo replied. He seemed pretty nervous, but there was no going back. He needed to talk to Eddy about Natasha. Si
