JACK’S POV

“Get out.”

The woman standing in front of me froze, her smile disappearing.

“Jack, are you serious?”

I looked at her, unimpressed. “Do I look like I’m joking?”

She glanced at the other women in the room before turning back to me.

“But you invited me here.”

“And now I’m asking you to leave. What’s so difficult to understand?”

She scoffed, grabbed her handbag, and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.

I took another sip from my glass, wondering when I’d become so irritated by thing

  • Accidentally in love with my father’s best friend    Chapter 9

    JACK’S POVI threw my phone onto the couch, unable to contain my annoyance.“Damn it, Maya!”I had been trying to concentrate on work for almost an hour, but all I could think about was the news of her marriage to Alexander Blackwood.It was ridiculous.Five years. I’d spent five years married to that woman, and she had the audacity to move on as though our marriage had meant nothing to her.The worst part was that she hadn’t even tried to contact me.Not to complain, not to ask for money, and certainly not to beg me to take her back.What the hell was wrong with her?I picked up my glass and emptied it before dropping back onto the couch.Maya had always been predictable. She would cry whenever I hurt her, get angry when I cheated, and threaten to leave whenever she felt she’d had enough. But she always came back to me.Always.I’d never imagined she would actually go through with a divorce, much less marry someone else days later.And Alexander Travis of all people?I couldn’t under

  • Accidentally in love with my father’s best friend    Chapter 8

    MAYA’S POVThe following morning, I woke up determined to avoid Alexander as much as possible.After what happened last night, I had no intention of giving him another opportunity to embarrass me. I got dressed in a simple outfit, had breakfast, and asked one of the housekeepers if he was home.“He left early this morning, ma’am.”I couldn’t hide my relief.“Good.”She looked at me briefly before returning to her duties.I finished my breakfast and went upstairs to get my handbag. I wanted to visit my mother’s mansion and check on her. Despite everything she’d said to me, I still couldn’t stop worrying about her health.I grabbed my car keys and headed outside.Unfortunately, my peaceful morning didn’t last long.As I approached the gate, I noticed a group of people gathered near the entrance. A few of them recognized me immediately, and before I could get into my car, they began calling out to me.“Look who’s here!”“Isn’t that Alexander Travis’s new wife?”One woman stepped forward,

  • Accidentally in love with my father’s best friend    Chapter 7

    MAYA’S POVI was still in bed when someone knocked on the door.“Come in.”A young housekeeper entered, carrying several shopping bags.“Good morning, ma’am. These are for you. Mr. Travis asked me to deliver them.”I sat up immediately.“For me?”“Yes, ma’am.”She placed the bags on the bed before leaving the room.I stared at them suspiciously. Alexander had barely allowed me to sleep peacefully last night, and now he was sending me gifts?That man was definitely up to something.I opened the first bag and found several dresses. The next contained shoes, accessories, and a few outfits that made my eyebrows rise.“Is he out of his mind?”I picked up one of the outfits. It was a revealing black performance set, clearly meant for dancing rather than an ordinary outing.I dropped it back into the bag.What exactly did Alexander expect me to do with these things?I was about to call him when I noticed a small card tucked between the clothes.Wear something you like and meet me in my room.

What’s so difficult to understand?”She scoffed, grabbed her handbag, and stormed out, slamming the door behind her.I took another sip from my glass, wondering when I’d become so irritated by things that used to make me happy.Women had never been a problem for me. I could have any woman I wanted, and I’d never felt the need to settle for just one. Even when I married Maya, I hadn’t stopped entertaining other women.I’d always believed she’d stay regardless of what I did.She loved me too much to leave.At least, that’s what I’d thought.Now, I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that she’d actually gone through with the divorce.Maya had always complained about my affairs, but she’d ne

  • Accidentally in love with my father’s best friend    Chapter 5

    MAYA’S POV“And who told you this marriage will happen?”I turned toward the doorway and found my mother standing there, staring at Alexander with an expression that could have frightened anyone who didn’t know her.Alexander barely reacted.“Good morning, Mrs. Williams.”“Don’t good morning me, Alexander. What exactly do you think you’re doing?”“Marrying your daughter.”“Over my dead body!”I sighed. “Mom, please.”She turned to me immediately. “Don’t you dare tell me to calm down, Maya. Have you lost your mind? You just divorced one man, and now you’re rushing into another marriage with someone old enough to have been your father?”Alexander’s expression hardened, but he remained silent.“I am not rushing into anything,” I replied. “I’ve thought about it.”“For how long? Five minutes?”“Mom, this marriage will solve our problems. He has agreed to pay for your treatment and restore my siblings’ scholarships. We won’t have to worry about where we’re going to live.”“And you think tha

  • Accidentally in love with my father’s best friend    Chapter 4- Her wedding gift

    MAYA'S POVThe auction began at ten in the morning.By nine-thirty, I was already sitting at the back of the hall, staring at the huge screen displaying the details of the mansion I had called home for five years.I felt sick as I read the words that were printed in bold letters.PROPERTY FOR SALE BY AUCTION.I pressed my fingers together tightly, I looked to the side to see my mom who had swollen eyes that kept staring at prominent men who walked into our mansion.Then my mother leaned toward me.“Are you sure this is the right thing?”I stared ahead, avoiding her gaze“What choice do we have?”“You could still call Jack.”“No mom.”“He might stop the auction.”“I won't call him.”“He is your husband, just let go of your pride.”“He was mom now he's my ex husband.”My mother sighed knowing it's pointless trying to convince me.The auctioneer stepped onto the platform and the room became quiet.“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.”I swallowed as the auctioneer began explaining the propert
