WREN I was seated in the park when my phone rang for a video call. Misan's smiling face greeted me, entwined in Sammy's bigSammy’s body.“Hey you,” I saluted.“How are you?” She asked.Rubbing some sun screen on her body, Sammy tried to assist her but she refused. It's obvious if I wasn't on call with her, she would've allowed him to.“Good, I'm back at the park again,” I told her, switching my camera so she could see the okay ground filled with different faces.“Why?” “Oh well, maybe because I wanted the sightseeing,” I cruised. “Actually I'm here because…” “Wren, Wren I think someone's coming behind you,” Misan's rushed tone made me go stiff, I quickly turned my back to see who was there.“You scared me,” I told Tina, who came to sit by me. No sign of her boss, nor the little girl. Sorry, I “Now you’re stalking me.”“Just testing the waters,” she sighed, a cone ice cream in her hands. “You seem to be here frequently.”My eyebrows rose, is she imputing that this is my best spot?
ASHERI drove straight to the estate all by myself, the speed I had taken was so high that if I wasn't a popular business man, I would've been taken by the police for reckless driving.“Eve!” I yelled, searching all corners.She'd said the flashdrive was my parting gift, does it mean she's signing the papers or not.“Eve!” I called again, but was greeted with silence.My hands went straight to dial Eve's name, it rang twice, thrice and then I heard a bang from upstairs.I wasn't frightened. Seeing Eve in a silky dress, made me go cold, I was fucking pissed and annoyed that she'd betray me this way.“I hadn't heard you come in,” she said sweetly, like we're in a drama. Her hands came up to me, arranging my collar, how convenient, if I'm not mistaken we have an unfinished business.“What exactly is in the flashdrive?” I ask so sternly, noticing how she almost wants to run out on me.“It's well…”“Answer me!” I shouted, this time my voice was deadly.She released my collar immediately,
ASHERI'd taken Eve to my hotel, in the conference room, where our lawyers have been waiting for us.It would hurt the media when they hear of our separation, not a while ago they were headlines of us in Carson's anniversary party.They'd captured all the intimate moments we'd faked.“Mr. Vaughn,” My lawyer in his ancient glasses rose up from his seat to greet us. “Mrs. Vaughn.”Eve's lawyer did the same, I extended my hands directing it to their seats and they sat.“Let's make this snappy,” I said, watching attentively as my lawyer, Anthony, opened his suitcase to bring out some documents.Our contract marriage clause.“Are you okay?” I whispered in Eve's ear, she nodded once, but her throat had gulped a swallow.I wonder what was wrong, she knew today would surely come. We've had our fill.“So the agreement was Mrs. Vaughn, married to Mr. Vaughn for a period of three years…” Anthony cleared his throat.Suddenly Eve stood up beside me, excusing herself, her palm covering her mouth as
WRENWe were in a restaurant Sammy invited us to, both men were dressed in suit, while Misan and I were in our flowery dress we bought two days ago.Making us act like twins.“Cheers to your reunion,” Jace raised his glass to the air, we did same clinging our glasses against his.“I'm happy yea,” Sammy smiled, and Misan gave him a kiss, that was too deep to be cut short.“It's best we ban you guys from kissing in public,” I told them jokingly, they burst into laughter.Deep down I was serious, now I feel empty and embarrassed siting with Jace.He's was staring deeply, like he wants to fuck and do bad things to me.Do I want to fuck? Yes, but it wasn't his body I want. Then why was I chasing Asher away? Well maybe because he's the bad guy, a reasonable person would stay away from.“So Misan and I had planned to go on a trip tomorrow,” Sammy announced, as he looked at us sweetly.“That's nice,” I winked at Misan, it wasn't new to me because she'd mistakenly told me.Jace exchanged glan
ASHER Nick dropped a brown envelope on my desk, it was pictures of Wren and… fucking Jace Kane.The one I warned her off. I'm so full of letting her do as she pleases, what part of staying clear from him don't she understand.One was of Jace hugging my woman, the other he pecked her cheek… I stopped looking.“Get the car ready,” I told Nick, matter of fact.“Where are we going boss?” “To Eyecatchers,” I said.***It could be a test, or not. I just needed a distraction to not think about pulling Jace's teeth.We were in the VIP section as usual, in Noah's club. I didn't want to get drunk, till I could think of what to do with Wren.Oliver and Noah were sitting with me, Noah hadn't gone to his bar to serve guests tonight, it's been a long since we gathered like this.“Do you think she'd want you to see that?” Noah asked, drinking from his scotch glass.“I don't fucking know, but she's doing a good job in rejecting my calls, and any form of contact,” I told the both of them.“I think y
WREN“You told me he wouldn't be here,” Misan accused, going to take her bag from the couch.She hates me for this, I deserved it right. If Sammy was smart he'd use this opportunity well, him forgetting something important was the hope he was missing.Which is Misan.“Relax, I'm sorry, okay? As you heard he forgot something.” “I shouldn't have come here,” she sighed furiously. I sat on the couch not moving, frustrated seeing her angry at me.Jace and Sammy were in a room where they could still be talking about his ex fiancee, Misan.“Are you coming with me, or I can see myself out,” Misan was very stubborn.I grudgingly took my shoulder hand bag, texted Jace to let him know we were leaving. Just then Sammy walked in with Jace, more of like on a run.“Misan, can we have a word?” Sammy asked. When Misan didn't say anything he advanced towards her. “It will be quick I promise.” My eyes met Misan and I pleaded with her to at least give him a chance, he looked ragged since she left him.
