3RD POV:

MEANWHILE…

Back in Resiph, Cherry and Carmeron as well as Gabby and Julian had gone out for some drinks as well as dinner at some Lorean restaurant, they had noodles, steak, rice, variety as well as some traditional beer they had never seen before nor had before. So they all took a glass and they all winced together in unison.

“That’s strong as well. Cherry just might have been drunk from just that shot.” Julian teased and Cherry shot him the middle finger.

“As a matter of fact, why aren’t people here?” Julian asked, looking around wondering why the place was so empty. It was in the middle of the city and Gabby who had been invited to try it out, about being offered over fifteen million and free food, she thought it would be fun to go with her family and to take a picture after.

“Aside from the fact that it’s rented out, the steak alone as well as the other meals is overpriced to the average person and a wealthy man who has more important things to pay for. I mean it's the be

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   The Scent of Obsession

    3RD POV:FEW WEEKS LATER:“Again?” Nanny Solidat asked the maid who brought in another bouquet of roses for Selena for the fourth time just today.After the dinner with Ace’s family and there had been reconciliation between both families, Selena had been receiving flowers every day since then and it was most definitely not from Henry. Joey had shot a text and asked if she liked them and it was then she told Henry all about Joey’s approach at the parking lot. Henry employed more security, and they followed everyone everywhere. The other day while Selena was at work, she received yet another bouquet, every day was a different color and today they were blue mixed with red and pink. It seemed so odd to Selena but she received a surprise visitor that same day.“What are you doing here? We no longer have business together.” She pointed out as Joey strolled in, dressed in a black suit and holding a designer gift bag. “I know….I just bought this for you. As an apology for scaring you the ot

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   Bridges Over Dinner

    SELENA’S POV:AT THE DINNER:“I had no idea you were going to be here!” I exclaimed with a genuine smile when I saw Cherry and Cameron walk in. My heart warmed as she gave me a tight hug, her scent sweet like vanilla and her curls bouncing lightly as she pulled away.Behind them were Mr. and Mrs. Scott, who entered the Waltsons' home with poised expressions and curiosity. They scanned the room, the decor, the soft lighting, the long polish table dressed in gold-accented linens and crystalware.Unlike the last dinner which was set by the pool, surrounded by lights and open skies, tonight was different. It was warmer, quieter, intimate. The Waltsons had gone for a cozy indoor setting, maybe in hopes that proximity might help thaw what was still a tense relationship. I could already feel the difference. A gentle melody played in the background, and candles flickered gently along the length of the table, bathing everyone in a soft golden hue.“I didn’t think you’d actually agree to this,”

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   Lines Crossed

    SELENA’S POV:I took another step back, hand now brushing against my door handle. “That wasn’t a sign or anything, Joey. It was a total mistake that rubbed me off the wrong way. You wanted to hug your girlfriend and thought she was me. That’s not any sign, that’s purely confusion.”He let out a bitter laugh. “You’ve always been like this, you know. Always holding things in. Always so calm, so hard to figure out. So controlled. But I know there’s still a part of you that feels something. Even now.”“I don’t,” I replied quickly, trying to keep my voice steady. “And even if I ever did, which I didn’t and it's even insane, it doesn’t matter anymore. I’m married now. Happily married. You need to respect that.”As soon as the words left my mouth, I wished I could take them back. I didn’t want him thinking the only reason I was shutting him down was because of Henry. Henry was my husband, the one in my heart, my everything. Joey is my friend but now I am rethinking it.Joey looked down at th

    SELENA’S POV:THE NEXT DAY:“And that will be all for today. Thank you.” I appreciated packing up my file and the rest of the board members all nodded and slowly started rising to their feet. It was currently five in the evening and I had gathered all the board members for a meeting to give their report and also to receive their plan for the future as December was slowly creeping in which marked the end of the year. I had so much planned for their bonuses because our income had increased so much and it was only thanks to each and everyone of them, as well as other employees who put in their sweat and dedication. I was feeling pretty good, and I promised myself to not allow myself to think for a second about David and everything he was going through. It was all over the media, blogs, socials, radios, television stations, it was impossible to actually miss it. Henry had been ensuring that I was too preoccupied with love, dates, even work to dwell on it.Would I say he got what he dese

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   Caged and Crushed

    3RD POV:FEW WEEKS LATER:“David Sanders, who had threatened Monica Scott’s enterprises attempting to set them all on fire, had also attempted to escape while in police custody during his trial. However, during his escape he had jumped from the forth street bridge and ended up with severe medical conditions. He has been transferred back to the prison’s hospital where he shall recover, more updates will come as soon as we receive intel…..” The reporter announced as she stood by the side of the prison gates, still trying to receive more information but she had simply been hit with the metal sounds of the gate. This had just made it to the news despite the fact that the jail-break had occurred weeks ago, however everyone who David knew, was already aware about what had occurred and just like his first day in trial, no one came to see him, and that struck him the wrong way especially since the doctor had shared some reports after David had woken and cried out loud in the hospital, stati

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   The Edge Of Freedom

    3RD POV:A WEEK LATER:Today was the day David had been preparing for, well not today in particular, but today marked the beginning of his trial and the day he was going to escape. He had tried to escape a night before as he had no plans of making it to court but he was unable to as the garbage truck was unable to move yesterday and had shifted it today.He was dressed in a suit sent by Sandra and she had attached a letter sending it through the lawyer she had employed and the letter read that she would be unable to attend today’s hearing nor bring their son to witness the sight. As well as a simple good luck, and David could only squeeze the paper and toss it in the bin.“What in the world is wrong with her? We could have literally just spoken on the phone.” He kissed his teeth in irritation, making his attorney chuckle.To his surprise, no one he knew was at his trial, and he expected to see Selena there, giving him a smug look he had never seen or Henry staring him down but no one

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   The Rooftop Warning

    HENRY’S POV: THE NEXT DAY: “How are you doing? How is everything really going without the both of us in your life?” Carmeron asked, finishing off another glass of scotch like it was water. We were seated at the rooftop lounge of one of Julian’s exclusive picks. The air up here smelled like charred barbecue, expensive cologne, and the kind of whiskey that burned slowly. Low music played in the background, the kind that didn’t interrupt but filled the silence. Fire pits danced with orange flames, and the skyline looked like it had been painted by someone who understood mood. There was something about the space that made it feel like we weren’t supposed to be here, like it was designed for younger men who didn’t carry the weight of marriages and fatherhood and lawsuits on their shoulders. Or maybe it was made especially for us. Julian sat across from me, relaxed, swirling his whiskey with two fingers. He hadn’t said much yet, but his eyes missed nothing. This was how he usually was,

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   Lines In The Spotlight

    SELENA'S POV:The worst part? I wasn’t even sure if it was just a mistake. Joey had been extra lately, lingering too long in conversations, always finding a way to be near me, sending texts at odd hours about “project ideas” that never actually needed my input. And now this? Hugging me thinking it was me?It had crossed a line. A very real, very clear line.I brushed it off and tried to shake it from my mind. This day was too important to let a stupid moment ruin it. I reached the stage, smiled at the mayor, nodded at our investors, and took my place in front of the giant ribbon. My assistant handed me the scissors, and the crowd fell quiet.This was it.I glanced at the crowd, trying to spot familiar faces. Zoey was somewhere near the front, waving at me excitedly. I nearly jumped in excitement when I saw Gabby and Julian, as well as Carmeron, Cherry and Liv all together smiling beautifully. There were cameras everywhere, and I knew Henry would be watching the livestream later, proba

  • Take My Husband, Let Me Marry Yours   A Dress Too Similar

    SELENA’S POV:A FEW WEEKS LATER:“Launch day!” Zoey announced excitedly as she arrived into the kitchen and I smiled weakly chewing the warm cereal in my mouth.The launch of the amusement park/mall was here and I was way too excited and way too tired to even speak. There had been a whole bunch of paperwork, approvals that I had to review before a bunch of actions were taken. I occasionally wish I could just hand out my power of attorney to someone else to review and approve because it took a whole lot more work than it seemed. “You look a mess.” Zoey pointed out and I stared at with an expression which I hoped screamed, ‘Thank you for that piece of information’.“But you already knew that, my bad.” She chuckled going into the fridge and reaching for a glass of juice.The house had been so quiet, as Henry had gone on three days work trip and requested Hailey and Nanny Solidat accompany him. I don’t know if it was to give some time to work or if it was because he felt Hailey was growi
