…I guess little miss perfect still has some undisposed skeletons in her cupboard.” She folded her arms. Letting a mischievous grin play at the corner of her lips. “Your son is a bastard Maren…” Before she could continue, Maren's hand landed hard on her face. Something she should have done a long time ago… ***** When the only man she ever loved cheats on her with her best friend, Maren dumps him, shuts her heart to love, and thrives to be a better version no one expects.

And hidden family secrets begin to unfold.

“Fuck!" She managed to breathe in pleasure. The slapping sounds grew faster, and she dug her perfectly manicured fingers into his back. Then he pulled out, releasing his semen to the ground, then he tossed her onto the already ruffled bed and stared at her. Lustful smiles spread across their faces as they looked at themselves. He got on top of her and took her breast in his mouth, caressing her nipple with his tongue while his hand squeezed the other breast. Then he slid down, and she released a gasp as she felt his tongue inside her. Her body shook at the third orgasm. “You are way better than your friend," he said as he exchanged his lips with his fingers, thrusting deep inside her as he looked into her eyes, his manhood erect beneath him. “How many times are you going to remind me?” she replied, a disgusting grin playing on her lips. Maren blinked back her tears as she walked down the aisle, trying to contain her anger at what she had just watched on the hotel's security footage. She loved this man… well, used to, and he had repaid her with sleeping with her slutty best friend. They didn't even respect the fact that it was her day, her wedding day! Gladly, the veil shielded away the fact that her makeup was already half damaged from the tears she had shed while she watched that atrocity. Through the veil, she could make out his smiling face at the altar, waiting patiently for her to get to where he stood. If not for the flowers she held, she wanted to clench her fists so badly. How could someone cheat so boldly? Getting to the altar, the priest began- reading words that she didn't care to listen to. All she was focused on was the disgusting cheat before her and the occasional cheer she got from her best friend like she was in support of her wedding, as if she didn't let her fiance pound her a few hours ago. “…In sickness and in health, till death do you part?” “I do," he replied, maintaining his broad smile. Then it was her turn to reply. He left the question hanging as she was now really furious hearing the way he had confidently said I do. The entire guests fell silent, waiting for her to reply. She just stood there staring at him, fuming. She had initially planned to forgive him after the wedding, but not after dealing with her best friend. But now, she is starting to rethink it. “Fuck this," she said and without warning, her hand landed hard on his face, earning gasps from different angles of the hall. She threw away her bouquet and tore off her veil, then traced her way through the guests to where her best friend sat. “You whore!” She said and ripped her bridesmaid dress in two. “Since you go around fucking other people's fiances, why don't you make it a profession?" She raged. "Maren!” her mom screamed. The entire hall was thrown into commotion as everyone watched the wet eyes bride accuse her best friend of sleeping with her husband. “Maren, what are you doing?" Irene said innocently, trying to cover up her body with what was left of her clothes. "Cheap slut,” she continued, "What did he tell you?, that he loved you? Well guess what, he also told me that and here we are Irene, here we fucking are,” she said, her voice breaking as more tears streamed down her face. Irene stood up from where she sat, her face serious and unremorseful. “I've always been better than you, Maren. Admit it. I'm surprised you're just finding out. This had been going on for as long as you've known William… “ Maren didn't let her finish as she pushed her. Irene lost balance and fell back. Luckily, she was caught on time by some people who stood behind her. “We both know you also aren't innocent, Maren. You're also as fucked up as much as your fiance,” she spat as she regained her balance. “Fuck off!” Maren screamed. Maren held her hand over her mouth, trying to prevent the tears that threatened to burst out from coming out. She staggered back and her parents came to hold her to prevent her from collapsing to the ground. She watched as her friend left the hall, her shoulders hanging high like someone who had just won a draw. Maren wriggled free from her mum's grip and turned to her fiance, who stood stunned at the altar. Murmurs from the guests filled the air. “You bastard!” She went in for another slap on his face, but he was ready for this one and dodged it. “I wasted two years with you, William." her voice shook and tears streamed down her face. “We can go on with this marriage and talk about this later, Maren." his voice was low, trying to hide his embarrassment. She scoffed in disbelief. “Go on with this marriage?" She gestured around and to her face, which had black lines from her washing mascara. “You're unbelievable William, you couldn't even respect this day. To think I overlooked your flaws to make sure you were happy, but look what I got William…” she paused as the tears choked her. "Look, I'm sorry Maren, I don't know what came over me. I…” “What came over you?" She charged at him, but her mum was quick to hold her back. “It just had to be Irene, didn't it? “Stop this, Maren. Do you always have to be so dramatic?" William asked suddenly, his voice was serious. This took her aback as she sucked in her tears and inspected him. She could now see how unremorseful he looked. “You know what?, I can't,”she said and turned to leave. “Maren, please,” her mom begged. “Mum, no, stop it" "If you leave this place Maren, I'm going to withdraw my support from your company” she stopped in her tracks and turned to him. “Fuck you…” Knock knock!! "Ma’am, are you alright?, you're obstructing traffic"A YEAR LATER "Ding dong!" Maren could hear the doorbell ring from her bedroom, then the sound of the door being opened and then inaudible voices then- "Maren Sharppe!!" "Fucking hell," she swore, startled and stared into the mirror. The view of the eyeliner she was applying on the right side of her eyes had gone zigzag. She took out a piece of wipes and just took off the entire thing and headed for the door and down the stairs. She knew that voice even in her sleep. "There's my mother fucking bitch!" Nella screamed as she sighted Maren coming down the stairs. She ran to her and almost swept her off her feet. "Alright, easy there," Maren said as she returned her hug with a wide grin. "Bitch, I thought your flight was tomorrow. What are you doing here?" "That's the thing. The flight was too far away, so I took my dad's private jet to be here today," she explained and hugged her again." Maren shook her head in amusement. "You never change, do you?" "I can't wait for y
“You're kidding, right?” Maren asked, holding the glass a little too tightly so that her fingers began to turn red. “I mean, there's no point trying to lie anymore, is there?" He replied, his eyes moving to her fingers on the glass and back to her face. “I admit I did know your father!" "And you're saying my father was a dangerous man?!” The glass shattered all over the ground and the liquid splashed along with it. “Hey hey, calm down” he was already in front of her and gently opened her hand, which was clenched into a fist to let the remaining glass fall out. Maren's face just stood frozen and she let him pull her away from the glass so he could clean it up and also clean up the cuts the glass gave her on her palm. “Your dad wasn't a dangerous man. He was involved with dangerous men,” he explained, cleaning the wound with disinfectant on a cotton wool. Maren just watched him, not knowing what to make out of what he'd been saying for the past twelve minutes. “Your fath
Maren raised her eyes for the paper on the table as soon as the knock on the door came. She knew who it was, and she gritted her teeth, just knowing that she would lose a very competent staff at any moment. “Come in,” she answered and sat up straight with her eyes on the door. Louise came in, file in hand, as she approached Maren's desk with her cheerfully fixed face. “These were the documents dropped off the other day that needed your signature, ma’am,” she announced, and Maren tapped the table for her to lay them. “You sent for me?" Louise asked, staring at her boss who hadn't taken her eyes off her since she walked in. Maren scanned her from her head to where was visible to her. She looked so elegant in the yellow blazer and trousers which she wore. She packed her hair into a loose bun in the middle of her head, which really gave her that sassy look coupled with the redness of her lips. She really was the one thing Alexander had given her that she hadn't regretted, a
Maren froze for a few seconds before she slowly raised her head to meet her mom's gaze. "That's impossible, mom. You're talking shit," Maren quickly blurted. "Oh, don't try to make me feel like I'm some terribly old lady. I do not have amnesia, young lady" Maren suddenly closed her laptop with force. "Don't you think it's a little too late to be up, mom? Some of us have work to do in the morning" she stood up and headed for her laptop casing. "Save me that bullshit, Maren. I know you know what exactly I'm talking about. Yours had a golden chain, and this is silver. And don't give me a shit about not remembering cause your father reminded you about it every day" "Maybe the gold just washed off with age. Maybe it was fake gold. I mean, dad was too self absorbed to buy real jewellery for any of us, anyway." Her brows were now furrowed as she carried out her actions with a little aggression. "This is pure silver, Maren. Gold doesn't wash off that way," her mom argued back in
Only the stars were in the sky when Maren got down from the car with her eyes glued to her phone, which she has basically been staring at since she got out of the elevator at her company. With calculated steps, she walked into the house and bolted the door behind her, then turned to the perfectly silent household of hers. She walked up the stairs and got into her room, which she also locked behind her. “Where did you get this?” “Fuck!” Maren exclaimed and almost dropped her phone as she shut her eyes to suck in the fear which had just radiated through her body. She took a deep breath, then opened her eyes again. “What the hell are you doing in my room, mom? And at this time of the night. Shouldn't you be knitting a sweater in a rocking chair or something?” she asked as she began pulling off her clothes. “Well, I felt my daughter's been acting so strange and distant these past few weeks and decided that if she wouldn't talk to me, maybe I should do some snooping of my own”
Maren's heart was tearing apart, and she just had to give herself a week break or she'd probably rip someone's head off at the office or something. She just couldn't contain her anger and sadness at what Alexander had done, and she meant it when she said she didn't want to see him again. How could someone be so selfish? She asked herself as she laid on her bed with her eyes facing the ceiling. How could someone destroy someone else's relationship without remorse just to be with the person? That is some messed up shit, you know? To think Irene was in on the plan since sat one and she hadn't noticed. She'd been that oblivious all this time? She knew she was supposed to be mad at Irene with this new information, but somewhere deep down; she felt some kind of pity for her and she wished she could speak to her one last time to hear her own side of the story or at least make peace with her. There was no denying that she missed Irene. I mean, this was her best friend from day one
