6: Cheating on his wife

Dylan got to his company, a mobile production company in their city, as he was known far and wide and had foreign partners too.

He parked his car—a Honda Jeep—in the company parking lot and made his way into the five-story building as he went up to the third floor where his office was.

Settling on his office seat inside his office, Dylan resumed his office work. After finishing his office work for the day and meeting with some top partners and clients who wanted his brand and new models of his products too, Dylan relaxed on his office seat and got a phone call from Rosie Andrew.

Rosie was so excited about wanting to know if Jessica had signed the divorce papers.

"Hello, babe. Good morning," Rosie spoke first excitedly to Dylan's ear on the phone call.

Dylan stared at his phone screen and replied to Rosie, "Good morning, sweetheart. How was your night?"

"Not good without having you here with me," Rosie shamelessly replied in a more seductive voice, and Dylan swallowed hard as he slowly loosened his necktie a bit to free up his neck.

Dylan apologized to Rosie, "I'm sorry, babe, but you know that I cannot continue to sleep outside of my home, as it might ruin my reputation if it gets out to the knowledge of my customers and fans online."

Rosie was silent on the phone call as she frowned, but she finally replied to Dylan, "Don't you love me enough, Dylan? Why care more about your fans than me?"

"No, babe, don't get it all wrong. You know if I don't settle my marriage issue with Jessica first amicably and make it known that I'm no longer married to Jessica, some fans might become angry about it and want to ruin my business too. You know that I cannot allow that to happen, knowing that Jessica played a vital role in my business and establishments," Dylan said, as he tried to explain his reason on the phone call to Rosie.

Rosie's frown deepened in her room, as she knew that she didn't truly love Dylan anymore. She only wanted his money, and she couldn't believe that Dylan would become rich again and bounce back to be a billionaire away from poverty.

Rosie knew that Dylan's parents had been rich before, but his father had gotten scammed by a foreign woman who took all his wealth, and that had made Dylan and the rest of his two siblings become poor.

Rosie had been younger then, and she had wanted a wild life, as she was 19 years old when Dylan's parents had lost their wealth and become poor overnight. Dylan's education had come crashing too.

Rosie couldn't put up with the fact that her boyfriend of three years had turned poor overnight and couldn't afford to buy her expensive things anymore. So an opportunity had come for her to travel out and further her education abroad. She had wasted no time in traveling out, and she hadn't told Dylan about it. Neither could she tell him to his face that they had broken up and she was no longer in love with him.

Rosie had pretended with Dylan over the years that she still loved him, whereas she had moved on abroad and slept with other men. She had only spoken to Dylan on phone calls and refused to return to the city until now.

It had been nine good years since Rosie had left the country and left Dylan too then, along with their relationship. But now that Rosie was back home in her parents' house, as her own parents were no longer rich anymore because of how her father's company had been bought and claimed by Mr. Luke Albert,

Rosie researched the billionaire man named Mr. Luke Albert who had bought her father's company to help her father clear off his debt in exchange for the company. As her father's company name was changed to LA Groups, Rosie saw that Mr. Luke Albert was an elderly man who had two sons and only one daughter. As she was researching Mr. Luke's sons online to know if she could date either of the two billionaire men, and in her bid to find the two sons of Mr. Luke Albert, Rosie stumbled on Dylan's profile page too. She saw that Dylan was even married to Mr. Luke's daughter, and Dylan was Mr. Luke's first son-in-law, as none of Mr. Luke's sons were married. Both men were single and not the social types of men, as they avoided scandals or women in general.

Rosie was shocked to enter Dylan's profile page and see that he was already married. She saw his wedding photo with his beautiful wife, and not only that—Dylan was now a billionaire, and he had a multimillion-dollar company and two children.

"How did he manage to achieve this?" Rosie had asked herself in shock to see that Dylan wasn't a poor guy anymore, as she had thought he would end up becoming.

She wasted no time in copying Dylan's company address, as she thought it best to see Dylan in his office after she was sure that Dylan was the same man she had dated ten years ago.

Rosie proceeded to visit Dylan at DY Group. She faked her tears and cried to him when she got into his office on the top floor. She accused Dylan of cheating on her and said that he couldn't even wait for her to return to the country first, before he went ahead and got married to another woman, forgetting all the love that they had shared.

Rosie hadn't thought that Dylan would accept her so easily, as she had thought he still loved Mr. Luke Albert's daughter much more than her or their past failed relationship. But Dylan accepted Rosie easily and told her, "It's not how you're seeing it, Rosie. I still love you, but it just happened that I met my wife, and she helped me become the man that I am today."

"And how about me, Dylan? How about us? Our promise, the love we shared, my virginity that you took? How can you do this to me? I was hoping that once I got back to the city, we would get married. How could you just move on so easily, Dylan? And you just forgot about me?" Rosie had thrown all manner of questions at Dylan to make him feel like the bad man in their relationship, whereas she was the one who had refused to pick up his calls.

Even then, Dylan had asked Rosie to lend him some money, and he would return it to her once he used it to establish himself or make a profit. But Rosie had refused, and in her mind then, she had even cursed Dylan, as she said, "How can I be the one sponsoring my man? Doesn't he see his mates who are taking care of their women? Stupìd man."

Rosie had cried the day that she visited Dylan's office, and Dylan finally accepted her back. She gave him her new home address, as she was no longer living in her parents' house, and she told him that she was still single.

However, Rosie had a boyfriend named Frederick Joseph, but Frederick wasn't rich. Now that Rosie had seen Dylan still loved her, she wanted to scam Dylan of his wealth and use the money to establish Frederick Joseph instead.

Rosie disliked Dylan for becoming wealthy and not remembering to marry her first instead of Jessica, whom he had gotten married to.

Rosie made sure to help Dylan in preparing the divorce papers, as she wanted to have Dylan to herself so that it would be easy for her to scam him. No one would know that she was at fault when she finally broke up with him again.

"How about the divorce papers that I gave to you last night, Dylan? Have you given them to your wife at home to sign—I mean Jessica Albert—to sign the divorce papers and leave your house?" Rosie asked Dylan, and she heard him say, "I have given Jessica the divorce papers, but she is not feeling too fine now, as she's unwell this morning. So she will need some time to go through the divorce papers before she can sign them." "And how come you didn't include that she would be taking 50% shares of my company revenue to take care of my kids too? Or didn't you know that I have two kids?" Dylan asked, and Rosie pretended not to know.

She replied, "I don't know, Dy, but isn't Jessica's family billionaires too? So what does she need your money for again?"

Dylan was silent at first, and after a while, he replied, "No, Rosie. Jessica cannot go empty-handed like that, as she suffered to help me build this company. Her parents won't take it lightly with me if I just divorce her without properly sharing all that we have."

"So what do you want to do now?" Rosie asked, as she tried not to sound too desperate or annoyed on the phone call.

Dylan replied, "I will prepare new divorce papers later and contact my lawyer now to get them ready so that Jessica can sign them, as Jessica doesn't want to divorce me either."

"She has to, Dylan. I'm supposed to be your wife and not her, so let her go back to her parents' home," Rosie spat.

"Hmm," Dylan hummed. "It's okay, babe. You have nothing to worry about."

Rosie finally pretended to be calm, and she said, "Dylan, you know that I love you very much. I'm sorry I wasn't there for you all those years. Life hasn't been easy for me either living abroad, and during that period when you called me and asked me to help you then, things got worse for me too. My dad's company collapsed, and it was bought, and I was managing abroad."

"It's okay, Rosie. I know all that on the news. Don't worry, I will come over to your house today after I close from work, so be expecting me," Dylan said, and Rosie giggled.

"Okay, sweetheart. I will be expecting you. And what do you want me to prepare for you?" Rosie asked.

"You can cook now?" Dylan asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I learned how to cook abroad after things became tough. Purchasing already-made food was expensive, as it was too small to fill me up," Rosie said.

"Okay. Anything that you have the energy to prepare—or don't worry, I will just order our dinners so you don't get exhausted with cooking. I don't want you to turn lazy in bed so that you can satisfy me however I want you tonight," Dylan said, as a sweet smile curved up his lips. He thought about how hard he would make love to Rosie in her house when he finally got to her house after closing from work.

Rosie replied, "Okay, babe. The bill is on you, and I will be expecting you tonight. Goodbye and kisses." Rosie blew kisses to Dylan on the phone call.

Dylan responded back by sending many kisses to her on the phone call before the call finally ended.
