“Oops… That’s Your Loss, Ex-Husband” – Chapter Sixteen
MADEA The room fell into a quiet silence. It seemed she was trying to decide if it was a good idea. I sat still, hoping she would say yes. Mrs Beaumont finally spoke, her voice calm but firm as she made her decision. “Well, if that is what she wants, then it is fine.” I smiled and held Jason’s hands. He faked a smile too, and then I turned to the Beaumonts. “Thank you,” I said. She nodded and smiled, looking at both of us carefully, as though she was already imagining what we would create together. “I just want both of you to create something that truly reflects what we are trying to show the world,” she added, her tone steady and thoughtful. Mr Beaumont nodded in agreement before clapping his hands lightly, breaking the silence in the room. “Fine then,” he said with a satisfied smile. “Let us have a toast.” “To forevermore love,” Mrs Beaumont said. “To forever love,” we all chorused, laughing lightly as everyone raised their glasses. The soft clinking sound filled the roo

MADEA “The Forever Love Project,” Mrs. Beaumont said, her voice calm yet firm. I looked at her, confused, muttering softly to myself. My stomach twisted with unease. She noticed and leaned closer, clarifying. “I mean the one I explained earlier,” she said. I nodded slowly, my mind racing. She continued, trying to make me understand what she was talking about. “The project we wanted Jason to carry out for us—it’s the Forever Project.” “Oh…” I murmured, swallowing hard. “I didn’t realize.” “Okay, so I think you should head it instead,” Mrs. Beaumont said, turning to her husband. “What’s that, lady Jason talked about, the one is wanted to head it before.” Jason cleared his throat, his eyes briefly flicking to mine. “Monalisa… she is very qualified to handle this, I promise.” I turned to him, feeling a pang of disappointment tighten my chest. He had already offered Monalisa the role. She was his ‘forever’—what had I expected? I forced a polite smile, trying to steady my ra

MADEA I sat there with Jason’s hand covering mine, and an unexpected flicker danced between us—hope, uncertainty, or a silent warning. I held my breath, waiting for him to speak, but he remained stoic, unreadable. His calm only magnified the storm I sensed beneath the surface. The room seemed to shrink; the chatter of the other guests dulled to a distant hum. All I could focus on was him—Jason, with that dangerous, deliberate composure that always made my heart race, as if he carried a secret meant only for me. Then he spoke. And the words hit me like a thunderclap. “She is my wife.” He said it like a declaration, the kind that demanded the world pause and take notice. The words were calm, but the smile that followed… dangerous, teasing, impossibly confident. My chest tightened, my pulse spiking as a strange warmth coiled through me, equal parts fear and longing. What did he mean? Hadn’t he just told the waiter we bore different surnames? “She is Miss Timmons,” he had co

MADEA “Cassandra, you just got here. Go inside and settle down. We will talk when I get back.” Jason’s tone was calm, detached, as if the tension in the room barely registered with him. A small, involuntary smile tugged at my lips before I could stop it. For a fleeting moment, I let myself believe he might actually be taking this seriously. “Really, Jason?” Cassandra’s voice cut sharply through the quiet, her expression hardening with disbelief and anger. “Are you choosing her over me?” Jason paused, just for a heartbeat, but his expression remained unreadable, steady, a wall of calm in the storm of her fury. “I am not choosing anybody,” he said, his voice clipped, precise, controlled. “I was already heading out when you arrived. You can join us if you want.” Cassandra’s lips trembled slightly as she tried to mask her rising anger. “I cannot believe this,” she whispered, though her voice carried a bite that betrayed her. I stayed silent, my fingers curling slightly at my sides
“Oops… That’s Your Loss, Ex-Husband” – Chapter Twelve
MADEA I stood in the sitting room, waiting for Jason to grab his keys, my hands loosely clasped in front of me as a quiet tension settled into the space between us. The silence felt unnatural—too heavy, too stretched—as though something unspoken was slowly suffocating the room. My phone buzzed, the sudden sound slicing through my thoughts. A message from my mum. You have been ignoring my calls, Madea… come home. Do not stay anymore with that loser. A slow breath slipped past my lips, but it did nothing to ease the tightness forming in my chest. The weight of everything I had been avoiding pressed down on me all at once. This text was talking about me leaving Jason. I hadn’t meant to ignore her. The past few days had been overwhelming in ways I couldn’t even begin to explain. Every time my phone rang, I simply didn’t have the strength to face another voice—another round of questions I couldn’t answer. Or worse… explanations I wasn’t ready to give. Seeing the message c

MADEA I stood frozen, unsure how to react. My stomach twisted, my chest tight, and my fingers stiff at my sides. What did you expect, Madea? The thought echoed bitterly in my mind. I let out a hollow laugh—sharp, dry, tasting faintly of regret. It trembled in my throat, betraying the anger and hurt I was trying to contain. Did you really think “let’s do this sixty days” meant commitment to you? That still, cold voice whispered. For a fleeting moment, I had actually believed Jason’s words, believed him when he said he had a thing for comedy. My heart ached at my own gullibility. I swallowed hard, feeling the tight knot in my chest deepen. The truth settled heavily: Jason only cared about his inheritance—not love. Every word he spoke had a purpose, and I had been foolish enough to think I was the exception. Shame and anger mingled in my veins. My gaze drifted to Monalisa. She was smiling, mischievous, like she owned the room. A shiver ran down my spine. I felt a prickling ir
