That evening, Juliet couldn't stop thinking about what she'd said.

Maybe it's not just business anymore.

She'd crossed a line. Admitted something she'd been trying to ignore. And Ejike had agreed.

But what did that mean? The contract still existed. The timeline was still one year. Nothing had technically changed.

Except everything felt different.

She was in the library, pretending to read, when Mama Kemi found her.

"Mrs. Olatunji, there's someone at the gate asking for you."

Juliet looked up. "Who?"

"He says he's your father."

The book fell from Juliet's hands.

Marcus Fredrick. Here. At Ejike's house.

"Tell him to leave," she said automatically.

"I can do that. But he says he'll wait all night if necessary." Mama Kemi's expression was sympathetic. "Mr. Olatunji is still at the office. What would you like me to do?"

Juliet's mind raced. She could refuse to see him. Let him sit outside the gates like the stranger he was.

Or she could face him. Finally. After twenty-five years.

"Let him

  • Married To The FIrst Zillionaire in Africa   PLAYING THE GAME

    Morning came too quickly.Juliet woke to find a note slipped under her door.Had to leave early for meetings in Abuja. Back tonight. Adunni will handle your schedule. Act normal. Trust no one. - ERight. Adunni. The woman who'd betrayed them.Juliet dressed carefully, preparing for a performance. She had to act like nothing was wrong. Like she didn't know Adunni had been selling them out for months.Adunni arrived at nine, tablet in hand, smile professional as always."Good morning, Mrs. Olatunji. Mr. Olatunji had to fly out for an emergency board meeting in Abuja. He asked me to brief you on today's schedule.""Of course." Juliet kept her voice neutral. "What do we have?""Lunch with the wives of several board members. Mrs. Adewale specifically requested your presence."A trap. Had to be."That sounds lovely," Juliet lied."It's at the Radisson Blu. Noon. I've arranged your car and security." Adunni made notes. "Also, you received an invitation to a charity event next week. Shall I a

    They sat on the hood of the car, watching the lagoon shimmer under city lights.Juliet had never seen this side of Lagos. Quiet. Almost peaceful. The chaos of the city felt distant here, like they'd stepped into a different world."I used to come here when my father was alive," Ejike said. "After particularly bad days. He'd work until midnight, come home angry, and fight with my mother. I'd sneak out and drive here.""How old were you?""Sixteen. Seventeen. Old enough to have a license, young enough to think running away solved problems." He smiled without humor. "My father caught me once. Instead of being angry, he sat right here with me. Told me that building something meaningful required sacrifice. That comfort and success couldn't coexist.""Do you believe that?""I used to. Built my entire life around it. Sacrificed relationships, sleep, peace. Told myself it was worth it because I was building something that mattered.""And now?"Ejike was quiet for a long moment. "Now I'm wonde

  • Married To The FIrst Zillionaire in Africa   THE JOURNALIST

    Bassey Akpan arrived at the house that evening.He was younger than Juliet expected, maybe thirty-five, with sharp eyes and a camera bag slung over his shoulder. He moved like someone used to getting into places he shouldn't be."Mr. Olatunji," he said, shaking Ejike's hand. "Been a while.""Three years. Since you broke that story about the oil minister.""Good times." Bassey's gaze shifted to Juliet. "And this is the famous Mrs. Olatunji. You've caused quite a stir.""Not intentionally," Juliet said."The best stories never are." He sat without being invited. "So, what do you need? And more importantly, what are you willing to pay?""Information on Victor Oba and Selena Abiola," Ejike said. "Specifically what they're planning and who they're working with.""That's a dangerous ask. Victor has connections everywhere. Selena too.""Which is why I'm hiring the best." Ejike named a figure that made Juliet's eyes widen.Bassey whistled. "That'll do. But I need to know what I'm walking into

  • Married To The FIrst Zillionaire in Africa   THE MEETING

    Ejike left for Victor's office at ten in the morning.Juliet watched him go from the window, anxiety twisting in her stomach. Something about this felt wrong. Too convenient. Too controlled."He'll be fine," Dami said from behind her. "Boss has dealt with Victor before.""That was before Victor teamed up with Selena. Before everything got personal.""Which is exactly why Boss needs to handle this carefully." Dami moved to stand beside her. "But if you're worried, I can follow. Stay out of sight.""Would he be angry?""Probably. But better angry than dead."The word sent ice through Juliet's veins. "You think Victor would actually hurt him?""I think desperate men do desperate things. And Victor has been desperate for years."After Dami left, Juliet tried to distract herself. She called her mother, checked on Nkechi, answered emails from Adunni about upcoming events.But her mind kept returning to Ejike walking into Victor's territory alone.An hour passed. Then two.Her phone finally

    Juliet stared at her father's business card for three days before making a decision.She wouldn't go to him. But she would talk to him. On her terms.She called the number on the card."Marcus Fredrick," he answered on the second ring."It's Juliet. We can meet. But not at your hotel. Somewhere public. Tomorrow at noon."There was a pause. "Wherever you want.""The National Museum in Onikan. Don't be late."She hung up before he could respond.Ejike had been different since that night in her room. More distant during the day, but his eyes followed her constantly. Like he was fighting something.She understood. She was fighting the same thing.The next morning, Juliet dressed carefully. Not too formal, not too casual. Armor disguised as everyday clothes."I'm going out," she told Adunni."Mr. Olatunji said Dami should accompany you.""He can wait in the car. This is something I need to do alone."The museum was quiet on a Tuesday afternoon. Tourists wandered through exhibits. School ch

  • Married To The FIrst Zillionaire in Africa   CONTROL

    Ejike couldn't sleep.He stood at his bedroom window at two in the morning, watching the security lights sweep across the grounds. Everything was quiet. Protected. Under control.Except nothing was under control anymore.He'd built his entire life on systems. Predictable outcomes. Variables he could manage. The contract with Juliet had been perfect. Clear terms. Defined boundaries. An arrangement that solved his board problem without emotional complications.But somewhere between the wedding and now, the variables had changed.He thought about her walking into that board meeting. The shock on Chairman Adewale's face. The way she'd defended not just herself, but him. Like she actually cared about more than the money.Maybe it's not just business anymore.He'd agreed. Out loud. Which was possibly the stupidest thing he'd done in years.Ejike poured himself whiskey and sat in the dark. He didn't drink often. Control was important. But tonight, he needed something to dull the edge of what
