"Excuse me? How can you say that?"

"Look at yourself. Someone like you can't afford an original bracelet. Either leave now, or I’ll call the police. You are trying to sell fake jewelry here, and I won’t tolerate it."

Jennifer looked at herself. Her clothes were okay. Just that she doesn't look rich. Nobody will believe her by judging based on her look. The shop is for rich, important people.

"Please," she said, trying to control her emotions. "I need money for my daughter’s school fees and medicine."

Jennifer said, and the girl rolled her eyes. "Save your sob story. I won’t pity you. Now leave before I push you out myself." The girl said, and just then, the shop owner entered the store. He was an older man, dressed in an elegant suit that immediately set him apart from the workers.

He paused when he saw the girl shouting at Jennifer. Telling her to leave. "What’s going on here?" he asked. His voice was calm

  • Ex-Husband Step Aside, I Don't Need You Anymore    Stella and Jennifer

    That same day, Stella pulled up outside Jennifer’s small pastry shop. The sleek black car was shining under the afternoon sun. The car was bought by Albert, but Jennifer was not aware.She stepped out with calculated grace, adjusting her expensive handbag on her arm before glancing at the poor pastry shop with a smirk.She looked around briefly, taking in the neatly arranged pastries displayed behind the glass counter. The warm scent of freshly baked goods was lingering in the air. Then, with a scoff, she muttered under her breath, "So this is where she spends her miserable days."With a confident stride, Stella got closer to the shop. Jennifer was behind the counter, arranging a fresh batch of bread rolls, when she noticed Stella stepping in. The sight of her immediately set Jennifer’s nerves on edge. She knew she wasn't coming for good, that she came to cause trouble, but she forced herself to remain calm, ready to face her.Stella glanced around with an unimpressed expression. "Oh

    "But I'm telling you the truth. My mom is late." She said amidst sobs. "I needed money. That's why I'm selling it." "Listen, I will buy it for two thousand dollars—nothing more. And that’s just because I’m being generous." Jennifer pressed her lips together, her pulse racing. "This bracelet is worth far more than two thousand dollars," she argued. "This is not fair." "I'm not forcing you. If you can’t sell it for two thousand dollars, you are free to go." He said, waving toward the door. "I don’t have time to debate this." Jennifer sat still for a moment while her mind raced with thoughts. She was being cheated. She wished there were other stores that buys used jewelry accessories. Her mind flashed to Emily's hopeful smile when she promised her she would be going back to school. Jennifer could still hear the words in her head. "Don’t be scared. I will find a way. You are going back to school tomorrow." At this moment, she has no choice. She had given Emily hope. She has

    Jennifer’s heart clenched at her daughter’s words. She reached out and pulled Emily gently into her embrace. "No, my love," she murmured, stroking her hair. "That’s not true. Your father didn’t mean it—he…he was just angry." Emily shook her head against her mother’s shoulder. She can't be convinced again that her father doesn't mean all that. "No, Mom. He meant every word. He doesn’t care anymore." She lifted her teary eyes. "I want to go back to school." Jennifer pulled back slightly, cupping Emily’s face. "You will go back to school," she promised. "Don’t be scared. If your father won’t pay the fees, I will find a way." Emily’s brows furrowed slightly. "How will you pay it?" she asked. Jennifer sighed but forced a reassuring smile. "Sweetheart, don’t worry about that. Just know that I’m here for you. I will always be here for you. Just keep in mind that your school will be paid." A small, relieved smile appeared on Emily’s face. She wrapped her arms around her mother. "I

  • Ex-Husband Step Aside, I Don't Need You Anymore    I might not make it

    That day, Albert came back home and feigned anger, ignoring Jennifer totally. Jennifer tried as much as she could to initiate conversation, but he kept mute. She served him his dinner and he ate without saying anything. That night, Jennifer tried to initiate sex, but he totally ignored her. Something he has never done.The next morning, Albert sat at the dining table, eating his breakfast in silence. Jennifer had prepared breakfast for him on time so he would be pleased. A minute later, Emily walked in slowly, rubbing her sleepy eyes. She had just woken up and was still adjusting to the morning light. She spotted her father, sitting at the dining table, and greeted him . "Good morning, daddy." But Albert didn’t answer. Emily hesitated for a moment, then greeted him again—this time, she corrected herself. "Good morning, Uncle." He hesitated briefly before muttering a blunt, indifferent, "Morning." Emily wasn't surprised or bothered. For days now, every interaction between them f

  • Ex-Husband Step Aside, I Don't Need You Anymore    Office sex

    Albert got to his office and he couldn't do anything. He kept looking at the pile of work that was waiting for him. He was angry that he paid for Emily's medical bills. He couldn't avoid it. He was mumbling some words when a knock landed on the door. "Come in." He said, and looked up to see his ex-girlfriend, Stella, stepping inside his office. She was wearing a tight-fitting dress that accentuated her curves and showed off her toned legs. "Hey dear," she greeted with a smile while walking toward his office desk. "I just thought I'd stop by and see how you are doing." She got to his desk and noticed his facial expression. He look angry and unsettled. "Why is your face like that? What happened?" She asked. Albert hesitated for some moments before replying, "Emily fall sick again and was rushed to the hospital. I just came back from the hospital." "You took her to the hospital? I thought you said you won't spend a dime on her sickness." Stella said. "Yes, that was what
