Chapter 21

SEAN. "I have scheduled the wedding for the weekend at an exclusive garden. Drop by at my office once it's evening and the contract can be signed." The call ended in my ear before I could say anything. I looked down at my phone, a ghost of a smile on my face before I heard a throat clear. Jake was seated before me, an expectant look on his face as he raised his brows. "Why did she call?" "Our wedding is this weekend." "Wow," Jake heaved and leaned back against his seat. "It's been barely two days since the engagement party and she has already scheduled the wedding for this weekend. She should have waited to recover at least." "We both know she has the money to host parties for the next one month without being affected by it." "Right." He nodded. "So are we still dropping by at one of the branches?" I pushed my seat back and rose to my feet, snatching my suit jacket from behind my swivel chair. I slipped it on before giving Jax a reply. "No. I suggest that we

SEKANI: "Don't apply too much concealer. I need my makeup sleek and moderate. None of that bridal nonsense." I demanded, whilst looking down at Mya who had just walked into the room with her babysitter. They were both dressed beautifully in the gown I'd gotten for them. Mya had a snow white dress and her hair was gelled and tied up with a pale blue ribbon which was one of the wedding themes. As for her babysitter, she wore a pale blue dress and a jacket that clung to her side and paid with low-heeled pumps. She looked quite stressed and that was because she'd been the one to take care of Mya for the whole of this week, nonstop. Thankfully, she was a single lady. I was already starting to consider hiring her as a full-time nanny and having her move into the house. "Mum, why am I not the little bride?" She asked, her expression sullen. "Today is your wedding. I should be the little bride. And also, I don't know who you're getting married to." Sighing, I glanced at her bab

Chapter 23

SEAN: For the first time in a while, I felt so out of place. Sekani was barely even speaking to me and didn't care if people noticed there was some sort of strain between us both. Instead, she steered me toward potential clients once again, telling me to better act like I was interested in what they had to say. She'd asked me to play cool with the fact that we weren't walking around the reception hall, hand in hand and smiling at everyone. "So Sean, tell me, what is Atrix communications like right now with how fast the world is modernizing." One of the older men, whom I learned had several five-star hotels around Europe, asked with a grin of curiosity. I took a sip, a sign of confidence in myself and whatever statement I had to offer. "You know, with the world rapidly turning into a technologically savvy globe, Atrix is following the pace. We don't slack. If the world moves an inch, we do the same or even move a few inches more. You see, that is how things should be

SEAN: "Jealous?!" I yelled as soon as we got to a dark corner. One of the conference halls was empty and she pushed it open, turning to look at me with a shrug. "You disrespected me, Sekani! And you call it me being jealous?" "Yes." She replied in a curt voice, snapped her purse open before she pulled out her lipstick and her power. I watched as she expertly smeared it over her lips, dabbed the powder pad against her skin really lightly before snapping it shut and turning to me. "You're being jealous, c'mon. Everyone knows Luca is my friend." "But I haven't seen him since we met," I hissed, drawing close to her. She looked so perfect. So perfect that I wanted to strangle any man who looked like he was in the way, not even minding if he was her best friend or not. And Luca or whatever his name was, didn't feel like he was trustworthy in any way. "Not at the engagement party. Why today of all days?" "Because he was on a trip! He went to Trinidad and Tobago. He's a fucking ex

Chapter 25

SEKANI: It had been a week since the wedding and gifts were still coming. It was honestly starting to get tiring that I couldn't go one fucking day without someone sending a gift my way. Every morning, I would walk into my office and find a hamper basket or a gift box and hell, even a car. I'd sent everything to Sean, knowing fully well that he needed it more than I did. He could realize a few hundred thousand dollars from one of the cars. Maybe a million too. I was doing a good thing for him. One of the incentives of being married to the one and only Sekani of Ultra Media. He'd called a few times after the wedding but I'd been too busy to pick up, diverting the call to my assistant and looking for excuses to make sure he didn't get to me somehow. I needed space. He's been around since the engagement. Even before then. We'd planned things out, kissed even when I didn't want it, danced together, and faked smiles in public. I needed him to stop disturbing me like

Chapter 26

SEAN: A week. It had been a week since I last spoke to or saw Sekani. I'd given her a call after the wedding as soon as I got back to my apartment but all of my rings had been either diverted to her voice mail which she never responded to anyway, or flat lined ended before I could say anything in defense. And not only did it infuriate me, I'd seen myself calling her several times in a day like a fucking fool. And her acting like she didn't receive the call or anything. What did she take me for? Jake had suggested I give her the space she needed as this was nothing but a contract marriage. And I'd done just that. But for how long was I going to endure all of these? How long was I going to stay without seeing my wife? Since last week, all she had done was send over every gift we had gotten from the wedding and after to my condo, telling me it belonged to me and that she didn't need it. How condescending of her to think because Atrix Communications was on the g

Chapter 27

SEKANI: Once he was gone, I broke into a bout of tears. I hadn't shed a tear in a long time. These memories hadn't returned since I could last remember. I remembered only crying over Sean and what he had done to me a few times while I was pregnant and while Mya was a baby. After that, I was soon over it, not even getting emotional over Sean and what he did. All it was was pure and unbridled anger. Pure anger seething through me. But right now, it was pain, heartache and shame. Pure contempt and aloneness. Desolation. Once again, I was starting to feel the weight of aloneness over my head. I could barely control it as I cried and cried and cried. Nothing could stop me from feeling this way. Nothing at all. So I remained in my office, cradling my body in my arms, rocking from side to side as I let the sobs rack through my body. And by the time I was done, I pushed to my feet with great resolve. Sean? I was going to move in with him. He was right when he talked ab

Chapter 28

SEAN: "Oh, what a mundane world this is!" Jake cried over the phone. I leaned against the pillar close to the front door, my cell phone in my ear as I listened to him speak. I had been rubbing my fingers over my forehead for the past ten minutes, listening to Jake yell about a woman who had dumped gin right after their one-night stand. "It's a man's thing to dump a woman. Why the hell did she dump me after our one-night stand, Sean?" "She was probably running away from any future problems," I shrugged even if I knew he wasn't going to see me do that. "No strings attached, remember? You were probably being too attached on the first night. Who knows? That must have thrown her off." "No! I wasn't! I only asked if we were going to see each other again. I also asked for her contact information and what she was going to be doing next week." "Definitely sounds like you were seeing a future with her." "I only wanted to have sex! Sex!" He snapped and tossed something. I hea

Chapter 29

SEAN: "Mya?" I repeated, giving the little girl who had just jumped into the bed a long look. I blinked a few times to be sure I wasn't dreaming and hell, I wasn't. Not at all. I turned to Sekani who looked quite horrified at the sight. Surely, she was also surprised like I was. "Mya?" I repeated again, looking at Sekani this time. She snatched the little girl in her arms, smiling at her and kissing her before taking her out of the bed and leading her out of the room. I followed immediately, tossing the bed covers to the side and jumping out before rushing out of the room. There was something oddly familiar about the little girl scuttling before Sekani and blabbing her cute mouth off. Dirty blond hair, amber eyes, aquiline nose, and a lip fuller than usual. That was me. She looked exactly like me. The beat of my heart against my chest intensified as I kept following after them both. "Sekani!" I called out but she was more concerned about speaking to the little gir

Chapter 30

SEKANI: Nothing could have prepared me for this morning. Nothing at all. Last night, I'd been lamenting and mad over the fact that I had to move into Sean's house with him and find a way to still keep Mya a secret, and this morning, I'd woken up to her in our bed. His bed. How did she even find her way into his room? "Missy Juliet," I called out as soon as I got back to the living room. Mya jumped off her and rushed towards me and I held her by the hand, tight enough so she didn't wander off in search of Sean. "I understand how hard things are for you and I profusely apologize for the inconvenience. I would be paying you double of what I usually do if you can either go overseas with my daughter or ask someone else who does the same thing as you to take over. What do you say?" "Mya is going nowhere," Sean spoke behind me with a tone of finality. I turned to see him standing a few steps away from us with both of his hands in his pocket. I'd never seen his jaw set that way
