Rowan's Point of View

My anger was growing inside me—maybe not because of what I had just heard, or maybe it was because of Janet.

"Whatever she said doesn't give you the right to trigger her, Janet. I thought you said you were a professional?" I asked, even though that wasn’t exactly what I meant to say.

"Excuse me?" Janet snapped, cutting me off before I could say another word.

"With all this, you still think it’s my fault?" she said, rolling her eyes.

"I definitely know you won’t believe me—always defending her," she added.

"What do you want me to believe, huh? You and I both know you haven’t been sincere the past few days. You’re just Janet—my wife. But now here you are, acting like a counselor?"

"You know what? Whatever you choose to believe, that’s on you," Janet said, putting the recorder away.

"And if Flora still chooses to take this up in court, she’s welcome to try."

I just stared at Janet. Seeing her in this professional mood was strange. I couldn't believe Janet could be t

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 34

    Janet's Point of View “Hopefully, Ms. Janet,” Dr. Jessica assured me.“That’s wonderful news. I’m coming right away to see her.”As the call ended, I hugged the phone to my chest, unable to contain my smile. My mom is waking up.I Jumped out of bed, threw on clothes, and rushed out the door without bothering about breakfast.The drive felt quicker than usual—maybe because the road was clearer, or maybe because my heart was racing ahead of me. I practically flew out of the cab and hurried straight to the receptionist, asking for Dr. Jessica. The nurse directed me toward her office, but before I could reach it, I met her in the hallway.“Ms. Janet, you’re here already,” she said, surprised, but smiling warmly.“I came as soon as I could,” I answered, unable to hide the joy swelling in my chest. “Can I see her now?”“Of course—right this way.”"Mrs Redmond is still sleeping," Dr. Jessica explained as we walked to her room, "but she's showing significant signs of awakening." When I saw

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 33

    Janet's Point of ViewI was touched by my brothers' story about how I was separated from the family. I never knew that was what happened. My mother was sick? I had no idea. The whole room was silent for a while before Jasper spoke up ."You never told us anything about your adoptive family," he said gently. "How were they to you? Do you remember anything when you were little? How did you end up in the orphanage?"I hesitated for a while. I never remember much of what happened or how I landed at the orphanage. But still have some memories of how Mr and Mrs Redmond started showing up at the orphanage. And from there I was adopted and they have been all I know as family.“ It's fine Janet , if you don't want to talk about it”. Williams said as he touched my shoulder. He said softly. "We never wanted to check your past without you knowing. We'd like to hear from you, if you're okay to share."I was still caught off guard. Most rich men would have done this by themselves, even before they

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 32

    Janet's Point of ViewI stepped down from the cab I took from Rowan's estate this morning. It was already 10 AM—Grandma had insisted I wait for breakfast, and I was really worried about what my brothers would say. It pained me that I'm already lying to them, I can't afford to lie to them again.As I walked up to the front door, I was greeted with a warm smile from Jasper, who was standing in the doorway."Janet!" he called out, his face lighting up. "There you are. How are you? Was your night okay?"He pulled me into a big hug, and I could feel how genuinely happy he was to see me."I'm fine," I said, though I felt tired from the emotional night with Rowan."Come on inside," Jasper said, leading me through the door. "Everyone's been waiting for you."As we walked into the living room, I saw William, Dickson, and Peter all stand up with huge smiles on their faces."Janet!" Peter rushed over and hugged me tight. "We missed you!""It was only one night," I laughed, but I was touched by t

    Janet's Point of ViewI was shocked to hear that Grandma was sick—and even more shocked that I was just hearing about it now. All this time Rowan had been trying to get me to attend her birthday party. Was this the reason? And he never once mentioned it?“Grandma is sick and you're just telling me now?” I said, my voice shaking with anger. If she’s truly sick, why did Rowan threaten to sabotage my career just to get me to that party? Why not simply tell me the truth? And what the hell does her illness have to do with our divorce? The questions were tightening in my head. I had no idea what kind of game he was playing here.Rowan sat up from the bed and turned to face me. He already looked tired—but not nearly as tired as I felt.“Grandma has a heart condition that requires surgery,” he said quietly. “But she’s refusing. Even after we contacted the best surgeons in the country, she still won’t go through with it.”“Why would she refuse surgery?” I asked, confused.“She insists we get b

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 30

    Rowan's Point of ViewI couldn't take my eyes off Janet. The woman sitting on that couch didn’t look like the Janet I used to know. Or maybe she never was that woman to begin with. Maybe I was the fool who believed the image I built for her. The lazy, good-for-nothing girl my family plucked from the gutter and handed a marriage certificate like it was charity.I used to think I knew everything about her. Her moods, her limits, the way she’d flinch when my mother made a remark, the way she’d retreat into silence when things got too hard. I thought I’d seen the full extent of her.But a few hours ago, she shattered that illusion.The way she calmed that hysterical woman not like someone who got lucky, but like someone trained, professional, damn near clinical. There was control in her voice. Composure in her body language. A sharpness in her eyes I’d never seen before.It was almost... mesmerizing.I really didn't believe Janet was a real counselor. Hell, I thought that Edward must’ve

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 29

    Janet's Point of ViewI stood there watching as they wheeled Mrs. Henderson out to the ambulance. Her words kept playing in my mind: "Your mother used to say the same things." Who was she talking about? My birth mother who had been bedridden for so long? Or my birth parents?Jasper had mentioned earlier when we first met that they traveled and would return soon, but I had never met them. I didn't know what kind of people they were. The uncertainty made me uncomfortable and tied my stomach in knots.I tried to calm myself. The woman wasn't in her right state of mind. She must have been hallucinating. That had to be it."Janet, dear!"I turned to see Grandma calling me over. She was beaming with pride."Come here, my wonderful girl," Grandma said, pulling me into another hug. "I am so proud of how you handled that situation. You were amazing!""Thank you, Grandma," I said, trying to smile. "I just did what anyone would do.""No, no," Grandma shook her head. "Not anyone could have done t
