Ethan Her eyes held shock and anger at the same time as her mouth opened wide. She acted as if she wanted to puke with a face filled with horror.Betty and Jones gasped simultaneously while I averted my gaze from them. "It has been a long time, did you enjoy the food served from the food truck? I made sure that light food would be served to you all"Betty drooled out the juice in her mouth while Jones walked towards me. "Why are you doing this? You can't pester Junia like this? I wouldn't allow you to harm my sister and traumatize her the same way that you did then" He attempted to lunge at me but a single word of mine caused him to pause in his tracks."Harm?" "How have I caused her harm? Is it bad that I want to look after your sister? Because she is my ex-wife doesn't mean that we are enemies. Right? Junia!" I glanced at her while my eyes traveled down her hands. Her fist was clenched like she couldn't wait to bury her fist in my palm.Jones buried his face in his palm. " I didn'
Junia’s P.O.VEver since Ethan came back into my life, my life went from bad to worse, and all the other bad things that I could think of at the moment. Rumors concerning Ethan and me were being spread on the internet. Images of him staring at me when I was on set also made rounds on the internet like wildfire.The most ridiculous thing about the whole issue was the fact that everyone was pointing fingers at me and accusing me of being a whore who couldn’t let go of her ex-husband. I scoffed, sitting in my office, not being able to take my eyes off the terrible comments that appeared on my screen. “Junia has always been a two-faced person, I can’t believe that I once looked up to her as my role model”Another comment read. “I am very sure that she was the one who left her ex-husband and when Ethan is starting to seem happy, then the leach and the number one problem comes back into his life”My fist clenched, likewise my jaw, and despite the rage coursing through my veins, the only
Ethan“Not only are the stocks dropping immensely but people are boycotting our products” Aiden yelled while I ran my hands through my hair before shooting him a glare.“You don’t have to remind me about that because the last time I checked, this is my company!” I fired back at him.Aiden slipped his hands through his hair, almost pulling it like he was frustrated. “The public were on your side before but with everything that has happened between you and Junia, then Maddie……They are now on Maddie’s side and…..”Before he could complete his statement, I shot up, my heart palpitating with fear as the image of her distressed face flashed through my head. “Junia, Junia. I need to see her because I am responsible for everything that is happening and she doesn't deserve this” Aiden yelled. “If you didn't decide to go back to her and just kept things on a low like you have always done. Then we wouldn't be in this mess..”Not being able to handle the defiance in his tone, I thundered at him
Junia I did everything in my power, everything in my power to make sure that I changed the false narratives about me online because not only was it affecting my name, it also took a great toll on my career. My career went down the rails after those stupid articles written by Naya spread around the internet like wildfire.However, deep down in my heart and no matter how much I expressed my hate towards him, I was bothered and worried about the fact that Ethan didn't reach out to me when he was the one that was responsible for half of the problems that I found myself in— if not all.If only he hadn't come back into my life. Where would I have been right now? I was sure that I wouldn't be in this situation at the moment.Betty banged her fist on the table, her teeth pressed against the other as she squeezed her eyes shut in anger. "What you are trying to tell me is that the movie which was supposed to be released by the end of this month got postponed because of this scandal? Plus, ther
Junia’s Point Of View My fingers trembled, my lips wobbled simultaneously at the same time and the only thing that I wanted to do was disappear. The message on the phone kept repeating in my head and in the very moment, time seemed to slow down. I was trying to still place one and two together when the door opened widely, jolting me out of my thoughts as Jones rushed back in. “What the hell just happened right now?” Jones yelled, his voice filling my ears with Betty’s gasps echoing in my ear.I was at a loss for words to say and my being taken aback was an understatement. I couldn’t take my eyes off the message on my phone, trying to correlate the message about protection and about the journalist who just died right now— Naya. I mean, everything even sounded unbelievable! It all looked so surreal and who the hell just sent this message? Who sent it?Betty rushed towards me grasping me by the shoulder as she shook me violently. “Junia, get a grasp of yourself right now and I know
Chapter Junia's P.O.VAs Betty had advised, I decided to get closer to Nicholas and the interesting thing was that the bond between Nicholas and me waxed stronger with every passing second. Nicholas confessed his feelings towards me, which I also did as well and since then, things only got better. My career, my love life, and all the things that I lost, I got them back in ten folds. It was more like the scandal and Naya's death was an elevation to my success and my life. As for Maddy, the same way people supported her was the same way they didn't hesitate to turn back against her.She earned a lot of backlash and many accused her of being the one who had pushed Naya to commit suicide. Ever since Naya's death, she has been doing everything in her power to clear her name and despite everything that she did, people declared that hate for her the more. I heaved a sigh, taking a deep breath before removing the wig on my head as I was just done with shooting a commercial. Scrolling thro
Chapter Junia POV“Briella” I muttered underneath my breath, my face scrunching up in disgust as I shot her a glare. A faint smile formed on her face before she ran her hands through her hair. “Sister, what are you doing here?”I almost scoffed right to her face because she even had the audacity to address me as her sister!“I think that I should be the one asking you that question because what are you doing here? Briella” I said, stressing on Briella for her to know that I just didn't care about her anymore.She squeezed her hands over her chest as she raised a brow while glancing behind me. “It seems to me that you are traveling. Are you on a break?”I was confused at that point because the fact that she was trying to strike up a conversation with me when the last time that I had a meaningful conversation with her was years back.I didn't know what happened but she suddenly went off on me and all of that happened as soon as I divorced that psychopath called Ethan. “I am curious.
Ethan’s P.O.VThe more I stared at my phone, the more I felt the urge to burst into a peal of hysterical laughter. What the hell? What kind of person did she think I was? What does she see me as? A loser? Someone who just gives up and wallows in sadness? Then she didn’t know who I was and she had no idea about the extent to which I would go to protect the people that I loved. Slipping my phone down my pocket, I leaned in the chair, not tearing my gaze from across the right. The air hostess soon stood before me with a bright smile that looked like it could illuminate the darkest corners of the room spreading through her face.“Can I help you with anything sir?” She said while I returned her smile.“No. When I need something I would call out for you” I said to her hurriedly because hell! She was blocking my damned view. The air hostess lowered her head before leaving. I darted my eyes back to the seat across from me and in that moment, a wave of anger rushed inside of me. Who gave
