As Jeffrey and I laid beside each other, I thought about most of the dreadful things I've been through.

"It's a girl!" The doctor announced and his colleagues cheered.
I kept panting and making effort to keep my eyes open.
I couldn't tell the doctor to fake the DNA result so it'd turn out to be Jeremy's cause I was in so much pain and pressure.
I tried to move my lips but my strength and muscles failed me. It's like the whole labor process drained me to the core.
"Doc...Doctor...I..." I tried getting his attention.
I gave up cause it made me weaker. I had screamed out my vocal cords and lungs, thats for sure!
The doctor moved away from the bed and I grimaced.

Jeremy storms out of his parent's mansion feeling very perturbed..He knows time's running out for him. If he doesn't find a wife in one month, his inheritance will be passed to his younger cousin, Tristan.Tristan is just a week younger than him so there is a power struggle between the two cousins.His strict grandfather had made this rule. He thinks his grandson will be more responsible with a woman by his side.Jeremy can't loose his inheritance, he just can't so he's forced to marry the girl his parents chose for him, Stella.Coincidentally, They were once classmates during highschool.Jeremy's friends would bully Stella till she cried.Jeremy cared less cause he had girls flocking around him, it's just this one girl, 'Stella' that didn't care of his good looks.Stella has no choice but to agree remembering the way
STELLAAfter an hour or two.I retired to my room.Am done with today's wedding.I don't understand why the guests are comfortable at someone's house by 10 in the night.I kicked my shoes off and the untied my hair which was braided and curled.I tried to reach for my zipper.What a huge wedding gown!I kept trying till I got tired.I went to the drawer in Jeremy's room and took the scissors I saw. I started from the chest area and cut the dress down.I climbed out from the humongous dress.I carried it to the closet and dumped it somewhere inside.I went to the bathroom to have my bath.I returned to the room with a towel around my chest.Hmph.Jeremy.He was on the bed shirtless with his shorts.I glanced a
JEREMYI got up and walked to the bathroom.I opened the door and suddenly a bucket of water emptied on me!Stella!!!!STELLAI went back into the room confused with what Jeremy's mom said.Does Jeremy know??I entered the room.Jeremy was already dressed up in a red suit. He didn't look angry like a bucket of water just emptied on his body.Weird.Didn't I set the bucket well?"Go get ready, we're going somewhere, Mom's orders" he said and I went numb.Mom's orders??I didn't say a word but just leave for the bathroom.I opened the door,Whaaat!!!A bucket of water poured on me.I turned angrily at Jeremy."You jerk!" I rapsed.He smirked.
🙆STELLA🙆I felt like a total loser. Jeremy doesn't care about me. I see it now.But what do we do about this?The men I hired to act like rapists...What are they going to do now?Jeremy must not know I hired them.gosh!.He told them to rape me."You heartless man!" The one on top of me snickered getting up."Your d**k deserves to be chopped off!" The other one said letting go of Jeremy.I was carried up and the men left looking quite astonished and disappointed.I faced the jerk."Jeremy, I hate you!" I yelled rushing to him.He got up on the couch and jumped over it to the other side.I ran after him as he headed for the stairs laughing.Oh God!What an insolent human being!He ran into our bedroom and I joined him.I
STELLA💅I stood beside Jeremy watching the firemen put out the fire in Jeremy's car.I feel so satisfied after destroying his Benz but I know he's going to cook up his own plan.Am not safe😱The firemen were done and a tow car towed the Benz out of the drive through.The firemen left as well.Jeremy grabbed me by my arm and pulled me roughly into the house.The look on his face is unexplainable."Are you f-cking crazy??!Have you lost your damn mind??!!" He barked at me.What's wrong with this guy?He has six other cars parked at the Sanchez mansion."That's what you get for asking a man with an oversized di*k to rape me" I jibed.He rubbed his temple."I was just joking. I knew you hired them" he said rolling his eyes.
STELLA💜I was bored since Jeremy wasn't home yet. I received a call from Kelvin.Hmph."Are you free, I would like us to meet up" he said."Oh...I can't, not today. Maybe another time" I replied."Alright" he said and hung up.Oh, I hope he's not mad.I wonder why he wants ro see me anyway.I heard a car drive into the compound.Oh, hubby is back.I laid on the bed and covered myself up. I made my face look sick.The door opened and he walked in.He glanced at me and scoffed."What the heck is wrong with you?" He asked and I shivered."I think am sick" I said faking my voice.He rolled his eyes.He didn't say anything as he went to the closet and returned in his casua
STELLA"I said I'm not sick!" I yelled my lungs out as he kept drawing the syringe close."Stop lying" he said and rolled his eyes.I bit him on his arm he was using to pin me back on the bed..He winced.I jumped up from the bed and ran into the closet. I shut the door and locked myself inside.gosh!That was close."Come out Stella. Am not going to inject you, I promise" he said."Liar!!" I yelled still scared.I heard him laugh."I fuc*ing promise not to inject you" he said.Hmm.I don't trust this guy."I want to spend the night here" I persisted and I heard him sigh."Didn't mom tell you about the ghost in this house? There's a ghost going around this house at night and it possesses people with strong he
STELLA💜I stared blankly at Tristan's wife who was wearing sunshades.What is she doing here?I searched around with my eyes but there's no sign of Jeremy. the jerk has gone to work Perharps."Good morning Stella... Remember me?" She asked and I nodded slightly.I don't even remember her name."Can I come in?" She asked and I shifted so she could come in.She walked past me into the house while I closed the door.I wonder why she's here😕💜JEREMY💜I drove to work and all I could think about was Stella. Our crazy drama last night. It's unforgettable.How can she change so much?She was a complete definition of an introvert back then with zero friends...gosh!If only I knew I would one day be married to her, I would have told my friends to stop bullying her.
