CHAPTER 91"Mom, it's just not possible, I'm sorry," Caleb said to his mom for the hundredth time."Take some time at least to think about it, Caleb. She needs our help as well," Rose replied."There's nothing to think about again, mom. I nearly lost Jane again because of her and I don't think I can risk that happening again.""Just do it for my sake, Caleb, this one time," Rose held his hands and gave him the pleading look that she knew he found difficult to resist."Mom, it's not the best decision. Jane wouldn't like it.""Jane has nothing to do with this!" Rose snapped. "You've conceded to what she wants for an irritatingly long time. But Stella has been with us for years now, don't you remember how much you used to love her?""That was years ago, mom. She broke my trust, and you're not even trying to see the situation from my perspective.""I know that mistakes happen, but right now all she needs is a good company around her that would love and care for her until she gets over her

Chapter 92

CHAPTER 92"Is it something I wasn't doing right? Was it something I said? I don't think I've pissed him off in a long while, and I don't remember when we had a heated conversation. So what could the problem actually be?!" Abigail ranted, pacing up and down in Diane's living room.Diane, who was struggling so hard to focus on the TV sighed."Maybe he's just not feeling it anymore," she said with a shrug."Not feeling it? That's absurd!" Abigail rolled her eyes. "We were so close to each other even when he was married. He was so into me and that's why it's very confusing that everything has gone south and he's now obsessed with her.""Well have you tried my suggestion to get rid of his ex-wife?" Diane asked."I've thought hard about it, trust me, but it doesn't seem workable and I could be putting myself at a huge risk. She's living with her husband and she's too protected, I couldn't come up with anything helpful. Besides, Caleb would kill me if he found out I laid a hand on her.""Ca

Chapter 93

CHAPTER 93The previous night had been blissful. And even though Jane had refused his proposal that they go out for dinner, Caleb knew that a lot of tension between them had dissolved.It was the morning of a beautiful sunny Friday, and Caleb did not want to move from his position with Jane huddled around him. It was the closest they had come in weeks and he didn't want the moment to end.He stroked her messy hair gently as he thought deeply about Stella's stay.Jane stirred and groaned, and the sound alone sent signals through his system.He watched with a smile as she slowly opened her eyes. "Awake so soon?" He asked quietly.She looked up at him through her lashes and then quickly jerked away from his body, as if it was wrong for them to stay that way. Caleb frowned at her reaction."What time is it?" She asked."A few minutes after nine o'clock. Why?""Shit!" Jane landed down on the pillow and put her arm over her eyes. "I overslept.""Yeah, you tend to do that whenever you're in

Chapter 94

CHAPTER 94As Jane pulled her car out of the lot, Caleb followed suit but in the opposite direction, heading towards his office.He continued to stare at her car through the rear view mirror until it became a tiny dot, and then nothing.He sighed and shook his head, as if to clear some thoughts out of it, just as his phone beeped and the doctor's name flashed across the screen.> Sure. I'll there by six.He sent her a thumbs up and gazed out the window."Everything alright, sir?" The driver asked him.Alright? Caleb thought to himself. His wife was emotionally torturing him, his ex girlfriend had come to live in his house, his one night stand from three years ago had a child for him and was draining him mentally, his mother was not helping matters, he had to make decisions for the company... Of course everything was fine!"How many more minutes?" Caleb asked instead."A few," the driver replied and Caleb sighed.***Jane stood in front of the sky-high building and swallowed hard. It h

Chapter 95

CHAPTER 95"You can go in now, ma'am," the receptionist said to Jane who smiled at her and then stared towards Marcus's office door.She remembered the last time she had shown up at his office, unannounced, and how her life had taken a rougher turn after she caught him and Abigail together in his office. She quickly brushed the thought aside and took in a deep breath as she reached his door and knocked."Come in," Marcus said and Jane did so.The office was just as she had remembered, the only difference being the desk that had been changed. But she also noticed that Marcus's tie was resting on his table and two of his buttons were undone."I almost thought you'd never agree to see me," Marcus started before she could say a word."I'm not here to see you, Marcus. Well, not in the way that you think.""Interesting," Marcus smirked and swivelled in his chair. "Then I guess you're here to explain why you haven't been replying my texts.""I blocked you, I think that explains it all. Liste

Chapter 96

CHAPTER 96"And you think coming here all by yourself was the best decision?" Caleb asked with a loud voice as they passed the parking lot to the car waiting for them."I had it under control!" Jane replied but suddenly regretted the words once they came out.Caleb turned to face her fully."That? That was your control?" He asked, pointing back at the building. "Who knows what he could've done to you if I didn't show up! Jane, what were you even thinking?!" Jane huffed and rolled her eyes."I only wanted to warn him to stop sending me the gifts.""And you didn't think it was better to let me know so I can handle it?""I wanted to sort it out peacefully."Caleb shook his head and opened the door for her to get in. Jane noticed the driver looking at her quizzically and then sighed when Caleb came in through the other door."My car," she said to him."The driver will get it back home," Caleb replied without looking at her.They were silent for a while as the car swerved into the road."

Chapter 97

CHAPTER 97The doctor, Addison Greene, was already seated in their plush living room when he walked in. Rose and Bianca were standing around her watching as she laid Jeffery across her lap with a thermometer beneath his armpit."Oh, Caleb! Good thing you're back!" Bianca went to meet him. "How bad is the situation?" Caleb asked flatly, ignoring her hands that were outstretched to take his suit off. That was not her role to play."Doctor Greene says it's nothing too serious, just a mild fever. Jeff baby will be fine in a day or two."Caleb started towards the doctor who smiled respectfully at him."A mild fever, huh?" He asked, looking down at Jeffery who happened to be asleep."Yes, Mr Lockwood. But I did take samples of the milk that Miss Bianca here talked about.""And?"The doctor inhaled before continuing. "The results were a little disturbing.""Disturbing? What's wrong with it?" Caleb asked, looking at all of them and frowning when they were silent for a while."Shes been waiti

Chapter 98

CHAPTER 98The water from the shower was refreshingly warm as Jane turned it on. She sighed and raised her face to let the water trickle down her scalp before reaching out to grab the soap.She was done in a few minutes and wrapped a towel around her body but it was extremely thick and heavy so she took it off and folded it properly before putting on the clothes she had worn the previous night. She smoothened her dress the best way she could and flipped her wet hair up in a ponytail, hoping to blow-dry it when she reached home.She picked up her phone and smiled when she saw a text from Brian already waiting for her.> Happy morning, Jane. How bad is the hangover? Text me when you get this.She swiped on the message to reply but was interrupted by another buzzing and Caleb's name flashed across the screen. Her smile slowly faded.> I'm so sorry about yesterday, Jane, I shouldn't have said that to you. You're not to be blamed for what happened and I apologize for my outburst. Can we t

Chapter 99

CHAPTER 99Jane was standing with her arms folded when Caleb walked into the bedroom."What was Bianca talking about?" She asked when she noticed his presence."Jane, I don't want you to bother about Bianca, okay? Just rest a little."Jane closed up the space between them, looking intently into his eyes. "What was she talking about, Caleb?"Knowing she wouldn't stop asking, he sighed and replied. "Well, er, the doctor came to check Jeffery as we had arranged and she also took samples of his milk since Bianca complained about it.""What does that have to do with me?" Jane asked with a frown."It has nothing to do with you, Jane, and that's why I don't want you to bother about it," Caleb stretched out his hand and held her arms. He gave her a reassuring look but Jane did not seem convinced."She said I wanted to poison Jeffery. What was that about? And what chemical is she talking about?"Caleb sighed and shook his head, mildly frustrated by her persistence."Jane we'll talk about it la

Chapter 100

CHAPTER 100Xavier was again at his usual spot in the restaurant with one hand stroking his chin, intently watching the people who entered and exited the restaurant. An untouched glass of beer next to a plate of beefsteak was placed on the table and he absentmindedly fingered the fork on his plate.When his expected visistor finally walked through the doors, he sighed with anticipation and took a sip of his beer.The man swept his eyes across the restaurant, as if search for someone, so Xavier raised his glass above his head to get his attention.He noticed how the man stiffened and gulped when he saw him before starting hesitantly towards the booth."You wanted to see me, sir?" He asked shakily."I did. But you don't look as delighted as I am to see you."The man let out a nervous laugh and fidgeted with his fingers. "Well, er, I was a little nervous when you insisted to see me so...""Some things, my friend, are never discussed over the phone," Xavier replied in his deep baritone."
