My meeting was for 10am. Everything was supposed to be smooth. I had even rehearsed the points I wanted to raise, telling myself I would finally impress the board today. But when I opened my laptop to arrange my documents, my chest tightened.

The file.

The most important file.

It was not in my bag.

My stomach dropped. I opened every drawer, checked the shelves, even checked the floor like it could magically appear. Nothing.

A sharp panic rushed through my body. I grabbed my car key without thinking and ran out of my office, my heels hitting the tiled floor so hard my steps echoed through the hallway.

I almost crashed straight into Donald.

He held my shoulders fast before I could fall.

His voice was gentle but surprised.

"Hey calm down. Where are you running off to in that way? Are you trying to ditch the meeting?" he teased.

I lifted my eyes, breathing hard. "Hey!"

He laughed softly. "Just kidding." His smile eased the tension a little but not enough to calm my pounding heart.

    "I'll be right back," Donald excused himself from the living room, his voice casual as he smiled at me before turning to leave. Tricia's eyes lingered on him until he was out of sight, a mixture of concern and curiosity etched on her face.Jayden took a few steps closer to me, his gaze intense as he searched my face. "Tell me the truth... are you two really married?" he asked, his voice laced with skepticism and a hint of desperation.Joshua, standing beside me, looked up at Jayden with a fierce expression, his small voice rising in defense. "Yes. Mummy and daddy are married and what's your problem Mister!" he screamed at Jayden, his tiny fists clenched at his sides.Jayden's eyebrows shot up, and he scolded Joshua, his tone stern but with a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes. "Hey, watch your mouth, little wimp."Joshua's face scelled up, ready for a retort, but I intervened before he could say anything. "Hey! Don't you dare raise your voice at my son," I said, my voice firm but l

    "Yes. I definitely know you ain't Monalisa's type of man. Donald is the type of man Monalisa craves for. He's so handsome and so caring, he's loving and stood by her when you deserted her. In fact... I'm glad he made his way back to Monalisa and I'm glad that things are working out perfectly well for them as a couple," Tricia said, a smirk spreading across her face like a triumphant banner, her arms folding across her chest as she blocked Jayden's path.Jayden's expression darkened like a storm cloud, his eyes narrowing into slits. "What? That annoying dude? Well, I'm not here to exchange words with you. I'm here for one thing, so let me through. I need to see Monalisa right now," he growled, his voice low and menacing, his jaw clenched tight."No!" Tricia replied, her arms tightening across her chest like a shield. "Maybe I should let him witness the sight I had seen earlier, maybe he'll get a grip of reality and stay away from us," she added, a hint of mischief dancing in her eyes.

    The doorbell would not stop. It kept ringing like a mad person was leaning on it. The sharp sound slipped into Tricia’s dreams and attacked her peace until her eyes flew open.She lay still for a second, confused. Then the bell rang again, louder. Her whole body jerked.She groaned and dragged her hands over her face. Her head felt heavy and hot.“Who the heck is at the door this early? What the fuck is the time?” she whispered, her voice rough like sand.She turned on the head lamp and squinted at the bright light. Her hand searched blindly on the cabinet until it found her phone. She lifted it close to her face.The moment she saw the time, she gasped so loud she sat up fast.“It is just 5:20am in the morning. Who the hell is at the door this early? Maybe Melissa? Oh God. She does not know Monalisa is back or maybe she knows and she is too excited. Ugh.” She rubbed her forehead with force, her eyes squeezed shut. “I hate this life.”The doorbell rang again.She growled under her bre

    I can't get swayed by Jayden any further.I walked out on him and rushed over to my room.Jayden followed me immediately but I shut the door at his face.I paced continuously, my forehead sweating and my heart raced so fast.Why would he do that to me? Why would he lie? He wants to keep me for himself? That's absurd.Various thoughts ran through my mind.If I stay any minute longer in this house, I might lose it and go mad.I rushed over to my wardrobe, grabbed my box and began to pack up my things.All I wanted at that moment is to get out of Jayden's house and go home.I packed up everything and zipped up my bags.I bid a a finally goodbye to my room and dragged my bags along.Jayden rose on his feet immediately, the moment he saw me dragging my bags along."You are leaving me? For real? His voice deepened"Yes I am" I replied coldly."But why! I know I did lie but...""Lie or not...I was meant to stay only a month and my time is up""No? He drew closer and reached out to my hand bu

    "What are you saying Jayden? We are still married?" I asked, my voice trembling with a mix of shock and anger, my heart racing like a drumbeat in my chest."Yes," he replied, his eyes locking onto mine, burning with a desperate intensity. "You think I divorced you but I didn't. I never filed for a divorce. I did contact my lawyer to prepare the divorce papers in a fit of rage, but after getting drunk, I remembered calling him to cancel the process."I felt like I'd been punched in the gut, my breath catching in my throat. "What? How...do...hold up. You remember? I mean...your memories are back!!" I stammered, my mind reeling with the implications."Yes, I can remember," he said, his voice filled with a quiet conviction, his eyes never leaving mine.I felt a wave of anger wash over me, crashing against the shores of my heart. "What? Since when!" I demanded, my voice rising, my fists clenched at my sides."After the incident that took me to the hospital," he replied, his voice steady, h
