Reymond Lingard didn't know how his life turned completely upsidedown, his crazy obsession for his daughter-in-law made him go insane. Nothing was more important than having Jesse Lingard who was his daughter-in-law in his life..his relationship with his son turned sour as the woman he yearned for was his son's wife.. "Listen son, Jesse is just a woman, don't let her bring enmity between us, give up on her and leave her for me..I gave up my entire life for you and the only woman who gave me happiness was taken away by you.. now it just so happened that you got married to her.. do you expect me to stand for it? Can't you give up this one thing that I ask of you as a father?" Trey sighed helplessly, he knew the affair that took place years ago between his wife and father but for the fact that he loved Jesse and she was already his wife, there was nothing he could do. "Dad, we both know there is little or absolutely nothing I can do about this. Learn how to live with it. I understand you gave me your kidney but that was because you are my father" "Trey you have two options here, it's either you give up on Jesse or you give me my pound of flesh...I don't care about the circumstances before" Mr Lingard yelled crazily. What will the fate of this turn out to be like?

"Enough Amara! Do you think it's easy for me? This very same woman, Jesse is the one I told you about....the one I lost all contact with after the fatal accident that almost took away my life. She is my better half and I don't know what happens, it's the chemistry and attraction between us is something I can't control...i- I"Oh please, stop with the attraction this and chemistry that! She is now your son's lawfully wedded wife and you can't do nothing about it! Listen to me Reymond for the sake of peace, you need to let this go! Please" Amara who was Reymond's sister advised.On the other end, Jesse had the worst wedding night of her life. The simple fact that she got to find out that her so called once lost dream charming man was actually her new father in-law was like a slap in the face. All these years, she never for once stopped loving him but looking at how things were, she felt the need to move on and have her own family. At 28, she had come of age to get married. Trey loved her as well as her fatherless little son who had no father... Jesse never cared how her son was conceived. she just loved him."Jesse, you have been in the bathroom for so long, are you sure you are okay?" In the heat of the moment as Jesse was in deep thought, Trey called out for her as she was in the bathroom. She looked at her night dress and laughed at herself...Her face full of tears,with a helpless facial expression. She just felt like ending her life would quickly quiet-down the situation."No, no" Jesse shook of the suicidal thoughts that came to her mind and decided to face the situation head-on."Damn it! She cursed, "How could I have missed out an important detail such as knowing my partners father! How could I not tell that they were father and son? Oh no! What have I done! What the hell have I gotten myself into?"Jesse patted her head a few times, wondering how she could have missed out such a detail.She thought of her little son again who now calls Trey "Dad". Jesse shook off all these thoughts and decided to wash her face, took a deep breath to try and calm down her emotions which were in turmoil at this point.Before she could do anything, the door was pushed open and Trey walked in with a smile on his face, "how long do you want to keep me waiting?" He said this as he wrapped his arms around Jesse's waist.Jesse felt shivers go down her spine, and smiled dryly. It was the worst smile as she literally forced it out. She looked at Trey's reflection in the mirror, he had the perfect looks but he looked nothing like his father. So charming, tall, lovely skin tone with a slight beard which made him seem a little mature than his age. Trey noticed how stiff Jesse was and took a step backwards.Jesse was in deep thought which only made Trey feel a little uncomfortable."Hey, Jesse, are you sure you are okay?" Trey asked this woman who was now his wife.Jesse smiled and nodded then turned and walked out. Trey looked at Jesse back which rather seemed lonely.He chased after her in a bid to cheer her up and hugged her from behind.Jesse chuckled, "Trey, please stop being naughty.... don't worry about me, I am fine...it's just that I am tired and I have a bad headache which is only affecting my mood" Jesse explained patiently not wanting to make Trey suspicious of anything. Trey sighed helplessly and walked out of the room...He felt like he would rather not disturb his wife.Jesse laid down facing the ceiling, this was not what she planned for. She thought her marriage with Trey would be smooth but looking at what just happened, Jesse had no idea about what her future had in stock for her.Despite being a billionaire's daughter, Jesse only wanted true love, a genuine type of relationship. She yearned for true happiness and nothing else.Reymond came into her life just at the time Jesse was desperate for love. She knew the guys around her only wanted her for money and nothing else. But Reymond seemed to have been different at the time. Jesse began to reminisce about her past.She had all the looks needed in a woman but the guys she met just couldn't let go of the fact that she was a billionaires daughter. With her long off black hair, brown beautiful beed-like eyes and slender body shape, she was every man's dream. She lived her life in wonder, deliberating if she will ever find a man who would love her not because of her father's money but loving her for who she truly was.Jesse recalled the day she first met Reymond, it was a Sunday morning and she stood on the balcony of her beach house enjoying the cool breeze that the air brought. she was there for some time such that she lost count of time."miss, there's a man who has requested to see you" Jesse's maid reported."who is he? did he mention to you what he wanted?" Jesse questioned.the maid silently shook her head in disapproval, "no ma'am, I have no idea. He just asked to see you"Jesse just waved her arm and walked out to see who was looking for her.Upon seeing the face of the man, she raised her brow and somewhat had a confused facial expression."who are you? and what do you want?"look, I feel like you are disturbing me right now. I don't need you to comfort me, I have my husband to comfort me" Ray scoffed, "oh that one...I can't see him around, where is he to comfort you now?" Ray spoke in a mocking tone. Jesse stood to her feet and prepared to leave. Seeing this, Ray grabbed Jesse by the arm and pulled her to his side. "Hey let me go! right now! Jesse yelled. Ray stepped in front of her and kissed her forcefully. Jesse tried to struggle her way out but couldn't. Ray had caught a grip of her and she couldn't move. "Dad! what the hell! you are forcing yourself on my wife! Dad! what the... Before Trey could master the strength to say another word, he landed a punch on Ray which made Ray directly fall to the ground. Jesse was dumbstruck by the sudden events, one second, she was trying to free herself from Ray's grip nd the next second, he was on the ground and her husband saw everything. Tears rolled down Jesse's face, she rushed over to Trey's
"You! you little thing? I raised you! how dare you talk to me in such manner?" Mr Adams yelled angrily. Jesse shrugged, "my Dad raised me, not you. I owe you nothing so get the hell out of this place. you don't qualify to set foot here" "You! you good for nothing! you told me everything was put in place! you told me that the ownership of this company and other assets were in my name"Mr Adams pointed at Ocean while trembling with rage. Ocean looked so confused and didn't know how to respond. "S-sir I did...I Did as you instructed" Ocean responded in a confused manner. "So then, what's the meaning of this huh? Either you set me up! or you were bamboozled" "Hey! Can you both leave this place. I don't care about your useless discussions. You can discuss your matters out of my board room. For now, get the hell out of here before I call security in on you" Jesse spoke in an irritated manner. "You! I swear you... "enough Adams! my father was not even a week old in the grave
Ray glanced at his son with his eyes filled with rage. This should have been me and not you, I should have been the one with her,Ray thought to himself. "Dad, Dad! Trey called out upon seeing how absent minded his father was. Ray snapped out of his daze and nodded, "go on I will be here...I will be sure to keep your wife company" Trey nodded then walked out. Jesse looked at her husband's back with a sad expression on her face. If only he knew his father was up to no good. "Jesse, who is Jude's biological father?" Ray paused a question unexpectedly. Jesse slightly froze and took a deep breath before responding. "I don't think I owe you or anyone else any explanation. I can only explain myself to my husband so you are not qualified to question me" Jesse responded in an irritated manner and stood up to leave. Ray quickly stood up and in a few strides, he was blocking Jesse from taking another step. "Leave my way, I am in no mood for your abominable acts. I don't want
"Before Lee died, I prepared some documents which stated that Lee would transfer all of his properties, doesn't matter if it's companies, houses or islands... whatever it could be. All that was to be passed on to an orphanage of which I own that orphanage darling. I gave the documents to Ocean so he could make Lee sign them. And that fool Lee put his signature on those documents leaving his child and grandchild with absolutely nothing. Everything that you ever wishes you could have dear, you can have it...I mean now that everything is ours" Clara's jaw dropped and her eyes stared blankly at her father. "Dad, tell me this is a joke" Clara finally spoke out. Mr Adams laughed out loudly while shaking his head, "No dear, how can your father joke about such a thing? of course it's not a lie" Clara hugged her father excitedly"so Dad, you mean to say I can ask for anything I want? like anything? " Mr Adams nodded his head proudly, "of course dear, when has Dad ever lied to you?"
Jesse pushed the doctor aside and sat beside her father while sobbing uncontrollably. Trey and the others who heard the noises from outside and knew what was going on. He rushed into the ICU and held Jess who was crying helplessly. News quickly spread of Mr Lee's death...Ray who heard the news derived joy hearing that the only stumbling block that was standing in his way had been removed. "oh ohh so now you are going six feet under and I will do what I see is fit. Now how will you stop me Lee?" Ray said this to himself with a smirk on his face as he stood to his feet. "well, it looks like I should show my face, let's say..... pay my condolences in person" "Dad, are you sure they are not on to you? I mean, you hatched this whole plan to get rid of my godfather and I ...I wasn't in support of this Dad. you should have tried doing it some other way, just not like this Dad, I didn't want him dead. After all, he took me like his own daughter and how I repay him now is what I don
"well sir, I-I .... before Ocean could finish his statement, Mr Lee's best friend who was Clara's father walked in. "hey, is my friend okay? is he going to make it with all those gunshot wounds?" Shaw's expression darkened...He knew that no information was disclosed concerning the kind of wounds or the Intel of what really happened so how did this man know that Mr Lee had sustained multiple gunshot wounds...Shaw felt like shooting this man dead right away but he restrained himself from doing anything foolish. "well sir, we don't know anything as of yet. We are still waiting for the doctor to give his report..As of now, Mr Lee is still undergoing surgery..Let's all be patient and wait till the doctor gives a report" Shaw explained. Meanwhile, Raymond on the other side was fuming with anger, ever since he found out that his son Trey was Jude's biological father, he couldn't calm his nerves....it's like destiny was playing a wicked game on him. he sat in his favorite couch with a
