Tonya's POVThe front door opened, and my older sister, Sonia, walked into the living room, dragging two large suitcases behind her. My breath caught in my throat, she was heavily pregnant.For a moment, I couldn't think. My mind went completely blank as I stared at her swollen stomach, trying to convince myself that what I was seeing wasn't real.My trembling hand slowly lifted to point at her. "Is she..." I croaked, my voice barely coming out. "Is she the other woman?"Sonia smiled warmly as she gently rubbed her baby bump, looking happier than I had ever seen her. Before she could answer, Philip walked over to her without hesitation.He wrapped an arm around her waist, pulled her close, and kissed her forehead affectionately before looking back at me."Yes," he said calmly. "But she's not the other woman. She's the main woman. She's the one I love, and she's the one I want to marry all over again."His words shattered whatever was left of my heart, I slowly turned toward my parents

Tonya's POVJael's driver dropped me off in front of my house just as he had promised. I thanked him softly before stepping out of the car. As the vehicle pulled away, I stood outside for a few seconds, staring at the front door.I didn't want to go inside, taking a deep breath, I forced my feet to move.The moment I walked into the living room, everyone was there,waiting. My mother and father were sitting beside Philip, all three of them looking in my direction as though they had been waiting for me all morning.Philip stood up and rushed towards me. “Welcome, we have been waiting for you all morning.” He said as he took my hands. "Did Jael sleep with you?"The question caught in my throat, I opened my mouth, but no words came out at first. My fingers tightened around my handbag as I remembered Jael's instructions.I swallowed hard. "Y-Yes," I stammered. I closed my eyes for a brief second before forcing the lie out. "Countless..." I whispered. "We... we slept together countless tim

Tonya’s POV"You look beautiful," Jael Blackwood said as I sat across from him in his living room.I was in his apartment building in Manhattan. Philip had driven me here earlier that evening without saying much during the ride. Before I got out of the car, he had simply told me that Jael's driver would take me home the following day. That was all, there was no reassurance or apology. The moment I stepped into Jael's penthouse, I felt completely out of place. The apartment was breathtaking. Every corner screamed wealth, the furniture alone probably cost more than everything I had ever owned in my entire life.Even though I tried to remain calm, my heart wouldn't stop racing. I sat carefully on the cream-colored sofa, afraid that one wrong move would leave a stain or somehow damage something that probably cost thousands of dollars, I felt like an intruder."Thank you," I replied stiffly. "But I'm not here for your compliments." I folded my hands together, refusing to let him see how

Tonya’s POV“Why are you acting like you are some kind of saint?” Philips snapped, his voice echoing through the living room as he paced back and forth. His frustration was written all over his face, yet there wasn't an ounce of guilt in his eyes. “All you have to do is spread your legs for him for just one night, Tonya. In return, he's giving me ten million dollars, and my company will finally get back on its feet.”He stopped in front of me, letting out an impatient sigh before continuing. “It shouldn't even be this difficult if you truly love me.”I remained seated on the couch, completely frozen. My mind struggled to process the words that had just come out of my husband's mouth. I searched his face, hoping to find even the slightest hint that this was some cruel joke, but there was nothing.He was serious, the man I had been married to for two years, the man I had sacrificed everything for, was asking me to sleep with another man in exchange for money.Not just any man, Jael Bla
