They won’t hurt you.

HARRYThe rest of the next few weeks after the argument passed in a blur of court summons, hearings amd other procedures needed to finalize the divorce. I offered seventy percent of my assets to Jane. It wasn't much anyways, but I hope with it, she would at least have an easier life than she did with me. Then there were more legal proceedings as I was hit with a different bombshell.Garrett named me as his child's legal guardian in the event of the passing. I had to go through all of the proceedings with a feeling of absolute dread in my heart. I had avoided seeing Emily in the months that I've been out. I didn't want her to have to see the man who killed her father, especially not as a guardian. I wanted to run away. My guilt weighed on me so heavily that I contemplated ditching the proceedings, giving everything I have left to her and leaving without saying a word. Everyday I saw her only caused the knot in my chest to become even tighter each time. My guilt had become so heav

More information.

SIX MONTHS AGO HARRYI pried my eyelids open as the sounds of footsteps echoed through the hallway, edging closer and closer with each echo. I lazily sat up from the luxurious king-sized bed I was laying on and rubbed my tired eyes. Looking around the lavishly decorated bedroom, with its red, gold-trimmed drapes, golden curtains and golden designs intricately etched onto the walls and floor, I couldn't help but sigh. All of it reeks of affluence. And it makes me sick to my stomach.Keeping my guard up and putting on a straight face, I slouched and stared at the door uninterestedly as I waited for my visitors. It was a good thing Carlos who was a gang member and our personal spy in the underworld informed me that Kate Rivera needed a bodyguard. I have made sure that records of Emily's association with me are erased and within the past one month, I have created an image in the underworld. All I had to do now was land the job and slowly drag Kate Rivera closer to jail.I can't allo

The note.

JENNAI strolled out of the hospital with a slump on my shoulders as I tried my best to willed my body to not give up on me as I climbed down the stairs. The familiar stairs of the hospital which I must have climbed a hundred time by now seemed so lengthy that I almost took a rest in the middle of it. Fatigue washed over me like an unwelcome guest who I had personally invited. I haven't had proper sleep since the accident and Steve's condition gives meore.than enough reason to worry. The suspicion swirling around me as the main perpetrator of the accident isn't helping me mentally or emotionally and the police officers and their stupid repetitive questions were beginning to irk me. It hurts that I'm alone at a trying time like this. My only solace was Steve who seems to be the source of most of my problems.My only comfort besides him is his seed kicking vigorously inside me. The little rascal also contributed to my fatigue. I never knew being pregnant was this tedious and draining.

How are you so sure?

JENNAMy heart raced with worry as I tried reaching the police once more. They still hadn't gotten a lead on their whereabouts and I couldn't relax at the thought of it. Steve, on the other hand seemed uncharacteristically calm. He sat calmly on his bed and made a few calls before setting his phone down and laying back on his bed. He closed his eyes and seemed to have simply fallen asleep, resting while I boiled over with panic."Why are you so calm, Steve?" I asked with a frown. "Gerald is missing and you don't seem that much bothered by it.""He isn't missing," he replied calmly, not bothering to open his eyes to look at me. "I'm sure you are misunderstanding things. He'll be fine.""How are you so sure?!" I hissed. "We can't find Matthew or Rosella. We're totally in the dark about their whereabouts.""That is exactly why I'm not worried," he replied. "Matthew and Rosella aren't stupid enough to kidnap my son or hurt him when they know I would send them to hell and back if they lai

Why am I here?

JENNAI strolled down the noisy yet silent hallway with hospital wards on both sides from me. The footsteps of nurses and doctors hurrying past and the silent worry of concerned relatives created a sickening harmony that I couldn't bear to look at. As a nurse, I was supposed to be used to this. I was supposed to be used to the worry and uncertainty in the eyes of the loved ones of the patients and the calm façade put on by the nurses and doctors to help the family calm down. Pretending like it was under control while wishing nothing went wrong for fear of the implications and sadness it would bring. I can only imagine the consistent trauma a doctor has to go through everytime he announced a death to the worried relatives.I hate hospitals.With a sigh, I averted my eyes from the people and kept my eyes straight and my mind busy. I tried to think of the reason why I was here in the first place. 'Why exactly am I here?' I thought. 'Who did I come to see here?'The answer to that was

A bad luck?

JENNAI woke up from bed reluctantly as my alarm rang, indicating that it was already 8:00 am. The pangs of pain caused by my ever lively children kicking in my womb caused me to groan and curl up as much as my protruding stomach would let me. I was tired and I've only just woken up. With a sigh, I dragged myself from bed and trudged to the bathroom where I freshened up and dressed up in a bright floral gown. I brushed and styled my hair into a bun before heading out of the room.It's been a day since my visit to the hospital and Zhara's words remained stuck in my head. Even if I boldly told her off, her words plagued me. They made me question if there was any truth to them. Was I really an of bad luck?Did I really cause everyone around me to experience misfortune because I am inherently caused?The answer to that was obviously no but I am finding it difficult to trust in that. It's all baseless superstition but I can't help but wonder if it was more. There was no guarantee that s

Overthinking.

JENNAThe day wore on as I sat in silence with Nelly by my side. Nelly seems to be understanding of my need for silence as she doesn't say a word to bring up conversation. I couldn't tell how long we sat in that blissful silence but by the time anything foreign broke that silence, it was already evening. We had maintained the silence throughout the afternoon.The distraction from our silent bliss came in the form of Nelly's husband. A dashing man at a height of 6'5, with a frame that could be said to have been sculpted by God himself. He had vibrant green eyes, a sharp jawline and smile meant to charm any creature on the face of the earth. I heard Nelly had gotten in more than a few fistfights with women and sometimes gay men who wanted to snatch him from her. His looks sure are impressive but they aren't the things that made him alluring in my opinion. It is his wisdom. While I am in no way attracted to him romantically, I must admit that I have admired his soft-spoken wisdom. He w

You are wrong.

JENNAI powered through the heaviness of my stomach and the fatigue it induced as I tried to be agile, cooking an elaborate meal for breakfast.It's been a while since I had the time to cook for Steve while he is home. I needed to do my best to make this special. I know our troubles are by no mean over and this might just be the calm before the storm, but I wasn't gonna let this opportunity pass me by. I wanted to make the most of these days of false peace. It doesn't matter that I'm lying to myself, as long as I can enjoy it with the man I love.Speaking of the devil, Steve walked into the kitchen dressed in a work outfit. A black two piece suit with hugs his muscular frame despite its thickness. I couldn't help but stare mindlessly. It's been a while since I've seen him ready for work. I had almost forgotten how hot Steve was when he is dressed for work."Why are you in the kitchen in your condition?" he asked as he walked over to me and held me from behind. "You should have let th

They did not deserve to die.

JENNAI woke up to an aching neck and back because of my terrible sleeping position in the tub and a terrible sense of fatigue still washed over me despite the fact that I just woke up from sleep. It was almost like I never slept. I didn't feel relaxed even by a little bit.I slowly stood up and gritted my teeth as the pain in my back and waist intensified. The weight of my protruding stomach dragged me down as I struggled to stand upright and ultimately failed. I opted to hunch as I got myself out of the bathtub first, wrapped my body in a towel and made my way into the room where I laid on my back on the bed. I stayed in that position for about ten minutes, staring at the ceiling and forcing myself not to think of anything as I tried to help my muscles relax just a little bit. My lively troublemakers were already kicking hard in my stomach, not understanding that mommy was really in no condition to take their rambunctious activities right now. Laying for about thirty minutes inst

Serves her right.

Chapter 70JENNAI walked cautiously, intentionally dragging my feet as I carried a tray with a teapot filled with hot tea as well as two teacups. The beverages are meant for Steve and our guest, but our guest today was a rather strange one. I could even say ominous. It was the last person we'd ever expect to be sitting on our terrace, waiting to drink tea with Steve.The second lead detective in Steve's case who seems more than convinced that Steve is the murderer of his father. They both seemed to hate each other to a lethal extent so why on earth is the same man in our house. I couldn't help the tensed up feeling in my arms at the possible implications his visit might mean. I have gone through multiple scenarios in my head and I don't see any of them being favourable to us.Eventually though, I open the door of the terrace and laid the tray down as Steve and the detective sat in silence, staring at each other like men about to go to war. Their measured gaze was like that of vet
