MONIQUE

The whole day I spent at Wind Corporation, I acted as Marcus's shadow, absorbing everything I could.

It was an overload of information, but I was determined to understand it all. Every business call he took, I was there, listening, learning. When he finished, he’d explain the details to me, breaking down each project, deal, and investment so I could grasp them.

The Wind Corporation had its hands in everything: investments, startups, manufacturing companies, politics, and even government entities. They were a behemoth, and it was clear how they got to where they were, by controlling every aspect of every industry. It was overwhelming, but I was eager to understand, to absorb it all, even if it took time.

"This is just the beginning," Marcus told me. "You’re getting the overview now, but as we move forward, you’ll dive deeper into each area. You’ll get a bigger picture."

  • DIVORCED MORNING AND REMARRIED TO HIS BROTHER BY NIGHT   First Lesson

    MONIQUEAs Marcus spoke, every word seemed to make its way deeper into my being. His voice was steady and calm, yet each syllable carried purpose. He wanted me in this world. His world, a world not just built on business, but on control, power, and freedom. It wasn’t just about making decisions or calling the shots; it was about owning every choice, shaping every outcome. And, I understood that he wasn’t just offering me a lesson in business. He was offering me a chance to do over my life.Marcus’s gaze never left mine, and I saw something in his eyes that I hadn’t noticed before, depth, understanding, maybe even something unspoken that felt like it belonged to only the two of us. In that moment, it wasn’t just his world I was stepping into. It felt like he could see straight through me, down to the very core of who I was. And it was exhilaratingMaybe it was the power of this place. Maybe it had something to do with the way he looked at me. Maybe it was the way I was starting to see

    MONIQUEMarcus opened the door to his office.Inside, the space was expansive but restrained, no excess, no warmth for the sake of comfort. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the city as if it were something owned rather than admired. The desk was dark wood, immaculate, positioned so Marcus would never have to turn his back on the view or on anyone standing before him.This wasn’t a place built to impress. It was built for power.Marcus stepped aside slightly, letting me enter first.“Take your time,” he said. “You’re not a guest here.”I wasn’t sure if that was reassurance or an invitation.As the door closed behind us with a soft, final click, I understood something: This was not where Marcus escaped to work. This was where he became who he really was. I remember vividly when he told me of his struggles after his mother's passing. This company was like his baby.And the biggest part of all is that he wanted me in his space.I stepped farther into Marcus’s office, my heels sinking softl

    MONIQUEMr Smith turned towards me.“So,” he said, “have you made a decision?”“Yes,” I replied. “I’m going to sign.”“Good,” he replied.He placed the document in front of me and handed me a pen. I took it, my fingers tightening slightly around it before I signed my name. When I was done, I slid the document back toward him.Mr Smith took another pen, signed it, and then closed the file.“I’ll begin the proceedings immediately,” he said.“Immediately?” I echoed.“Yes,” he confirmed. “Thank you.”“Of course.” He paused, then continued, “Before I do anything, I want you to know this, I’ll begin drafting everything right away. I’ll send you the documents before they go to court, just to make sure we have everything we need. If you’re not in a hurry, you could stay around and go through them once I’m done. Or I can send them later.....whichever is easier for you.”“I have somewhere to be,” I said, “but I’ll be around. If needed, I’ll come by again.”Mr Smith nodded. I was about to stand

    MONIQUEI looked up at him, my thoughts racing.“And I should probably go to his office today,” I continued, “so we can begin my divorce proceedings.”Then another thought surfaced.“And you didn’t tell me anything from your friend’s side.... Patrick. What’s going on with the police?” I asked.“Okay,” he said getting comfortable. “Let’s talk. Patrick hasn’t called me with anything new yet, but I’m going to call him today and push him.""That's good. I want an answer that actually satisfies me.” I thought for a second. “I’m also thinking about signing Mr Smith's contract. What do you think?”“The contract,” he said. “Where is it?”“I think I left it in the car yesterday,” I admitted. “ I were so out of it, and honestly, I forgot about it.”“Okay,” he said decisively. “I’ll get someone to bring it.”He took his phone, made a quick call, and a few minutes later the driver came in with the document and handed it to Marcus. The driver nodded politely and left.Marcus handed the agreement t

    MONIQUEDinner that night was quiet.Nadia didn’t join us. It was just Marcus and me. We ate together but I had no appetite. Marcus kept trying to get me to eat. He even fed me at one point, which somehow made me laugh despite everything. I knew he was trying, telling stories, joking, doing everything he could to cheer me up, to loosen me up..... But all I could think about was my aunt.Before I went to bed, I called her. She didn’t pick up.I didn’t have Violet’s number. I didn’t have her husband’s number either. I had no one else to call, no one else to check with. So I sent her a message instead, asking her to at least tell me if she had landed safely, if she was back home.Marcus went into his office. He said he had to look over a few things, and I didn’t want to disturb him.I waited thirty minutes for my aunt to respond. When she didn’t, I called again.Still nothing.That’s when I decided to go upstairs. I thought about going to Marcus’s bedroom, but then I changed my mind. I
