JEWEL'S POV
It was Saturday. Not just any other Saturday, it was the third Saturday of the month. A very important Saturday in my family. Why, you may want to ask? Don't worry, I'll tell you exactly why.
The third Saturday of every month is the day all of us will come together as a family to have a luncheon at my parent's house. Everyone was invited and by everyone I mean Tayo and Pearl's husband, Kelvin and her children.
I was still wary about the things happening with Pearl. I didn't confront her about seeing Kelvin at the mall even though I had caught her several times on phone calls with Kelvin and she was yelling at him over the phone about not coming home till she wants to. I only asked her to tell me again when she said Kelvin would be back but that didn't really turn out well because she snapped at me and chided me for asking so many questions. I quickly

JEWEL'S POVI got to my room, fuming and boiling with anger. I can't believe she brought that up on the table. She couldn't even keep her cool till the end of the luncheon. Typical Pearl who blows things out of proportion. She had absolutely no right to snap at me and call me names. When I'm not a kid! Before I could even think any further, my door flew open and Pearl walked in, stoic look and scrunched up face. I rolled my eyes and turned to look at her. We engaged in a mild staring contest before she spoke up. "You had no right working out on me." She stated, an edge in her voice and I scoffed, folding my hand across my chest. "You left me no choice." I answered. "Instead of you to have waited till the luncheon ended before snapping at me but you just had to make a scene. Typical Pearl, very dramatic." I said in the exact same tone

JEWEL'S POVI was at Tayo's condo, inside his room and lying on his bed. He had gone out to have a phone call with his Dad so I was left in the room in the pool of my own thoughts with the subject of my thoughts as Henry.He had surprised me that day. After he had finished dressing my injury, he had told me to get my things that both of us were going somewhere. Shocked and way too confused to ask any questions, I followed him, in his car.I rode with him at the back while his driver drove us to God knows where...Flash back "Where are you taking me?" I asked Henry for the umpteenth time and just like every other time before, he laughed out softly."You have never had a patient bone in your body. Not even once." He teased me and I rolled my eyes at him, a small smile tugging a

JEWEL'S POVI made my way to the rest room hastily, not knowing that Tayo had followed me. When I got to the secluded hall way, a hand drew me back before I could even enter the rest room. I turned around and met Tayo. I became even more annoyed so hissed and jerked my hands away from his grasp.Lets see what kind of apology he has cooked up in his head now. I thought to myself."You know, leaving the table like that was very rude." He said instead and my eyes widened, shocked that he wasn't even apologizing for the stunt he pulled."Are you kidding me right now?" I asked him, hoping that he was just joking but his stoic look showed that he had actually uttered that bull crap."You actually think I'm joking?!" He snapped at her. "You fücking embarrassed me in front of my Father's business associates and you think I'm

HENRY'S POV"I saw you dancing with Jewel." Henrietta mentioned as soon as I got to our table and I sighed, dragging a chair out and taking my seat.Yes, I had come here with my sister. My parents were and of the most popular business tycoons in the city and even I'm the entire control and they were invited for this charity ball. They couldn't make it so they sent my sister and I to represent them.This wasn't the first gala we would be attending in place of our parents but still I didn't want to come for this one because I wasn't feeling it. Obviously it was because I was lazy mostly because I knew how stressful this kind of gala was. As per my father's request, I'd have to mingle with most of his business associates and their wives. Those women wouldn't stop recommending their daughters for me. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

JEWEL'S POVI stirred, waking up slowly to a dim lit room. I opened my eyes wider, realizing that the curtains were drawn down which prevented the ray of light from penetrating into the room. I was grateful for that because it woulda have added to the very bad headache I was feeling at the moment.Gosh! What happened last night? I asked myself.Groaning, I got down from the bed. The air was cold from the air conditioning and everywhere was silent. I resolved that the headache was from too much crying last night as the last thing I remembered was seeing Tayo kiss that lady.Good riddance to bad rubbish.As I walked over to the bathroom to brush my teeth, I realized that seeing Tayo yesterday with that lady was just another sign from God telling me to break things off with the asshole. The relationship itself was more

JEWEL'S POVI dashed in to the hospital with Henry hot on my tail. My mind was in turmoil and I didn't know what to think. Immediately the call dropped, all my senses heightened. I had tried calling my sister's number again but she didn't pick it and that made me even more scared than I already was.Henry became worried as I had become even more frantic. I kept calling the number again and this time, it was Lyla that had picked up the call. The little girl was crying and had told me that her daddy had beaten up her mummy, before leaving the house in anger, leaving her mummy bleeding on the floor.I was angry, furious but most of all I was scared. I had to assure the little girl that help was on the way. Henry who had overheard the phone call already called his driver to go over to Pearl's house to pick them up and take them to the hospital. Then later, Henry and I were on our

JEWEL'S POV"Your sister is awake and she's asking to see you." The doctor announced and immediately, I was up on my feet."Where? Take me to where she is immediately." I told the doctor who nodded and led the way. I looked at Henry who had stood up too."Will you like to come with me?" I asked him and he shrugged."I'm not Pearl's biggest fan but it wouldn't hurt to see how she's actually doing. I'd just check in and then I'd wait for you outside." He said and I nodded. That was fair enough. At least Pearl would see that Henry had a good heart and meant well.Intertwining my hand with his, we followed the doctor behind as he led us down the all way and towards a corner. I was scared of what I might see. I didn't even know that I had tightened my grip on Henry's hand but he didn't seem to mind as he stroke my hand softly, silen

HENRY'S POV"So, when we supply..." One of my contractor was doing a presentation but I was barely paying attention as my mind wouldn't stop going back to two night before. To what happened between Jewel and I, and my lips wouldn't stop stretching in a smile.What had happened between us was nothing short of mind blowing and electrifying. No, we didn't have sex. I just helped her feel relaxed by eating her out. My pants tightened at the simple thought of it, my mind going back to relieve every moment of that night.The way she moaned out my name as my fingers worked inside her and my lips feasted on her core. The way she clawed the bed with one hand and ran her fingers through my scalp with the other, pulling me even closer to her core. How she spat out words that would make a nun blush as I brought her to climax, her sweet nectar on my tongue.Fuck.
