The sun was shining brightly as the rays of the sun disturbed Maya's sleep, she quickly dragged the cotton close, giving shade to the room away from the sun, she smiled happily as today was her big day, the launch of her clothing brand, it was a high-profile event as most of the wealthiest families in Batavia we're going to be present, she frowned knowing that Jason was going to be present, being part of the wealthiest dynasty in the city it was only right for him to be present She had promised herself that she will avoid him by all means, her father managed to convince her to involve Micheal in her new company and after giving it a thought she made Micheal the marketing manager of her brand, while her best friend Ariana was the general manager of the company. Micheal was in-between two jobs, working in her father's company and working as a part-time marketing manager at her new company. Working with Micheal wasn't going to be easy knowing that Micheal has loved her for what seemed
Maya walked into her house and sat down on the couch, for some reason her heart kept racing and her stomach was in a knot, she wouldn't help but reminisce on how handsome Jason looked earlier, his charming eyes were glittering and this was the very eyes that drew her to Jason in the first place, she would remember how Jason took her breath away the first time they met but so sad he turned out to be a jerk everyone described him as She quickly waved off that feeling and replaced it with anger and hatred."He doesn't deserve any sentiment or admiration from her"Screw him! she mumbled inwardly, she was pulled out of her reverie when Jayden rushed into the living room to welcome her "Welcome back Mommy," he said smiling at his mother, and before Maya could respond he added "When are we going to the mall to get my new toys Mommy?'You promised remember? he said pouting his cute little mouth, his cheeks were rosy and squishy which made him so adorable, Maya has been occupied with work that
Jason's car pulled up at Jayden's school, this was the same school he trailed Maya to, he wanted to get to know about the little boy and find out if he was Maya's son.Suddenly his phone rang and he crinkled his eyebrows seeing the call was from his assistant, he quickly picked the call thinking he had important information to convey to himHis face surge up in anger when his assistant told him that Lizzy was in his office and that she has refused to leave till she sees him, he clenched his fist in anger knowing Lizzy was overstepping her boundaries, he needed to cut off all ties with her since she was becoming overbearing, He squished off the anger from his face and a surge of smile surfaced, he got down from the car and walked into the director's office.A middle aged man was seated in his office when he heard a knock on his door.A tall handsome man with an aura as that of a king walked into his office, he stood up to greet him immediately wondering what brought Jason Foster the mo
"Mommy Mommy Mommy" Jayden's voice lingered in the room as he climbed on the bed trying to wake his mother upIt was Saturday morning and the sun was shining brightly as the rays of light descended on Maya's eyes, she growled slowly as she opened her eyes, she quickly shifted her eyes from the rays trying to adjust her eyes to the atmosphere of the room, she turned to Jayden pulling him into a hug, it was the weekend and her work free day as well, she planned taking Jayden to the mall to get him new toys and clothes as promised, they were supposed to go to the mall a day before but she shifted it to Saturday to spend quality time with him since it was her work-free day."Good morning Mommy"Jayden let out funnily pouting his mouth as he smiled at her, Maya carried him down from the bed and playfully patted his cheeks "Let's get you dressed, "she remarked, Mrs Patricia doesn't come to work on weekends and Maya didn't see the need for Mrs. Patricia to work on weekends because she prefer
I sat down quietly on the couch in my room as rage of anger was burning inside of me, she had woken up earlier to take Jay to school before heading to work "That lousy man will explain to me why he allowed a stranger close to my son,"she sneered inwardly. She was furious. just when she was about leaving the room, her phone started ringing, she turned back and grabbed her phone from the bed, her eyes widened seeing the call was from Michael, Michael has been bugging her to go out for lunch with him which she politely declined, she knew what Micheal wanted but she was not willing to give him a chance, she has never felt anything for Michael and she didn't see the need to keep leading him on, she just wanted to be friends with him but Michael wanted more than friendship "Hello Maya"Micheal's voice lingered "Hi Micheal ".Why are you calling this early she said wanting him to go straight to the point "Have you changed your mind about going on a lunch date with me,"he let out and wen
Maya's words pierced Jason's heart into a thousand pieces as he hasn't seen Maya this defensive before, she must hate him so much that she hid his son's identity from him, he tried to pull back the tears that threatened to drop down from his cheeks, he recalled the hurtful words he said to Maya years back and the numerous times he forced himself on her." I raped my wife?" he buried his head in shame and regret, the flash of Maya's cries and pleads each time he devoured her on bed lingered in his head, he felt bad for the way he treated her in the past, he was ready to be a better man for her and a better father to their son, he swore to do anything within his power to win her love again He jolted out of his deep thoughts when Lizzy walked in glaring at him like a lost sheep, a glint of anger that Jason didn't see engulfed her as she sat down staring at him, she shoot daggers at him, Jadon barely noticed as he didn't spare her a glance, he quickly swallowed the lump down his throat as
Shortly after she ended the call, a message containing the address of the restaurant came into her phone, she raised her eyebrows with mixed feeling, she wasn't sure if going out on a lunch date with Micheal was the right thing to do but nevertheless she needed to get Jayden a dad as soon as possible.He loves me and maybe with time she will learn to love him or so she thought not knowing Michael had an ulterior motive.Michael had worked for Mr Parker for over ten years and still counting, he had loved Maya for too long but that was because getting Maya on his side will make his plans go swiftly, Since Maya didn't pick interest in running her father's empire, he thought Mr Parker will trust him enough to hand over the company to him but No! He choose to convince his daughter to consider taking over the empire as the new CEO after he retires.This made Michael furious, he assumed Mr Parker was being ungrateful, he had spent his time and effort working for him over the years and he still
Jason walked into Maya's office dressed in a blue suit and a white shirt underneath. The ray of the sun illuminating from the window of the office cast a warm glow on his face, Maya couldn't help but admire how smart and elegant he looked, his charming eyes were glittering which made him adorable with a domineering aura like that of a king, she shifted her gaze from him as she wouldn't want him to notice that she has been staring at him for too long. Jason sat down and furrowed his eyebrows at her not knowing what to say as he was overwhelmed by her sudden change of heart, just yesterday she was threatening thunder and brimstone and now she was willing to allow him perform his fatherly duties to their son. "Do you care for coffee Mr. Foster?"Maya said finally breaking the awkward silence between them as she tried to remain cordial, she didn't want to give the wrong impression, he was only here for the sake of their son and that's it "Sure"Jason replied as his sweet baritone voice li
