A week had gone by with Jennifer in the Thomas mansion, her supposed honeymoon was over. She had been talking to Morris on the Chairman's condition and why she hasn't been able to reach him but he had informed her of having to see the Chairman herself.She dressed up corporately as she stepped out of the mansion in pretense of going to work. Just as she came out of the house, she saw Richard who awaited her arrival and had blocked her in front."What's this nonsense, Richard" she said, her voice slightly raised.Richard expression remained serious, "you husband asked that you be driven to work today" "Aren't you supposed to take him to work" Jennifer asked, confused.Richard hesitated before replying, "yes, I'm not going to drive you Mrs Thomas"Jennifer was more confuse, she didn't understand a thing he meant. "What does that mean?"Before Richard could explain the situation, a luxurious black car pulled up and a lady dressed dressed in suit with her hair tied in a bun emerged from

Jennifer's mind wandered about as she got home, alot had been going on lately and everything seemed to be going on too fast. She fixed her gaze back at the Chairman's pendant before she's suddenly grabbed by the arm into the storage room. Shocked, she stared at the person who had just pulled her, it was Damian. "What the actual fuck Damian!!" She exclaimed, outraged by his sudden behavior. Damian immediately placed his hand on her mouth, gesturing her to be quiet, his eyes filled with frustration. "Why have you been ignoring me all these while? Huhh?" He demanded. Jennifer's eyes narrowed as she pushed him back. "Since when do I owe you a meeting or conversation.""What do you mean by since when? Since the moment you walked back into this house." He responded moving closer to her. "And what did you say then? You're pregnant and with my brother? How could you?" He said, his voice cracking in between. "And what right do you have to ask me questions concerning my private life?" She s

The Thomas family gathered around the dining table, the atmosphere quiet, except the clicking of the cutlery on the plates. This dinner was different, something about it felt odd, it felt more serious. Other days everyone would be chattering, discussing about work or anything in particular. The atmosphere was tense making it hard for Jennifer to swallow.She took a peep glance at everyone on the table, Ray and Damian exchanged intense glances at each other, it didn't seem friendly at all, it almost felt like they sent each other coded messages through the aggressive cutting of steak with their cutlery.Bella at the other hand seemed like she was anticipating something, every bite she took was followed with a light smile at their father in-law. Alexander's expression was hard to comprehend, she couldn't tell what exactly was going through his mind. Above it all, it felt like everyone but her, knew the reason behind this unpleasant dinner."Did something happen at work?" Jennifer asked

Bella stood confidently in front of the camera, posing with the product she was endorsing. The camera crew buzzed around her, adjusting and fixing their equipment to get perfect shots. Just as the shoot was going well, Grace made an entrance as she walked in on set.The echoes of her red heels filled the room as her long wavy black hair fell down her back. She looked stunning in her black dress and her red lipstick seemed to make a statement and spell out the word, "main character." The crew stared in surprise, stunned, whispering to themselves as they recognized her, the legendary actress - Grace Daniel Evans, Bella's mum. She walked in with confidence, her eyes fixed on her daughter who didn't seem that pleased to see her."The one and only Grace Daniels? Ohh my goodness, it's an honor to be graced with your presence." Justin the shoot director remarked. "Can I have a picture with you" another crew member asked. A little commotion broke in as the whole crew tried struggling to g

The rain intensified as Ray and Jennifer drove down the quiet road, the silence between them drew, contradicting the fact that they just had a heart to heart moment a while back. Jennifer sat still, her eyes stealing glances at Ray as he drove. Their clothes already drenched from the downpour of the rain.Suddenly, her sneeze broke the awkward silence as Ray's eyes turned to her, concerned. "Are you ok?" He asked his voice filled with worry. Jennifer nodded but Ray reached his hand to the back seat, grabbing a small towel. "You should dry yourself up, you're already coming up with a cold."Jennifer took the towel and she used it gently to dry her damp hair. Ray's eyes watched her a bit before fixing his eyes back on the road. "There's a garment bag at the back seat, I have extra clothes in it. You should change.""I'm good, we'll be home soon anyway" Jennifer replied, but her response jinxed it immediately as the car had other plans. It stopped, refusing to start despite Ray's repeat
