LisaI thought Aaron would be happy to see me after all these months, it's been a year since I disappeared and then I return to meet him being cold towards me, this was not the Aaron I used to know.Aaron trust and believes whatever lies I feed him with, he was too in love with me to even see how manipulative I was.I've always being the only person that mattered most to him, he would literally worship the ground I walk on, even when his best friend tried to uncover who I was, he choosed to believe me, he stood up for me in so many ways and now he wants to throw away all that we shared in the past because of that lady.I had him wrapped around my fingers, he used to love me to a fault but everything has changed because of that nitwit he calls a wife. How could Aaron do this to me.I thought leaving the country with Mateo was the best decision because I thought I loved him but turns out he wasn't as rich as Aaron and I find myself wanting my Aaron back. He was not as loving as Aaron wa
Dylan "How is it going with Alexander? You barely talk about his annoying ass and the project you both are handling" I asked, gazing at Aaron who seemed bothered about something."He's been out of town for a while now, his assistant has been the one sending feedback to me, though I got his text that he's back and that he would want us to meet up" Aaron responded as he gently sipped his drink."Okay, that's fine" I retorted still looking at him."You look bothered Aaron, what's the problem?" I asked.He shrugged and kept a blank expression, more like he was trying to figure out how to tell me."Before we got here, you said you wanted to talk to me about something, but you've refused to say anything since we got here" I questioned.Aaron said nothing, he gazed at me and then poured himself another drink, he gulped it down within a second and then crinkled his eyebrows at me."You won't believe who showed up at my office weeks ago?" he said and paused."Who?" I asked curiously while sip
Lisa I've thought about how to win Aaron back, how to guilt trip him into accepting me back and throwing that bitch out of his house. I got his message, saying he wants to meet up in his office, I guess he had made up his mind on what to do and I feel like that decision does not include me. I just feel it in my bones that he wants to ditch me and stay with that wrench of a wife, but if he thinks I can accept rejection without a struggle, then he doesn't know what's coming for him, good thing I was the first person he wanted to talk to after he came back from his trip, I have my plans mapped out, just in case he decides to be an ass. I took out my phone and smiled as I began to send tons of messages to Tessa. I was going to lure her to Aaron's office and then carry out my plans, poor thing, she doesn't know what's waiting for her, she would be so heartbroken after today, that she won't have any option than to pack her bags and leave Aaron's life for good. I'm back and I'm back to s
Tessa's POV I was so happy that Aaron was back from his trip, I've missed him so much and I can't wait to hug him, even though I found it weird that he decided to go to his office first, instead of coming home to his wife, well I guess he had something urgent to handle in the office. I've missed him so much, so I decided to surprise him, I prepared his favorite meal and decided to take it to his office. I was about to dress up when a strange number started sending me tons of messages, [I bet you know who Aaron truly loves, leave my man alone, you wretch] [Leave my man alone, Tessa, I've my eyes on you] [Are you this stupid or you're just playing dumb, you should know when a man is using you bitch] I sighed and dropped my phone on the desk, this is getting creepy and I can't wait to tell Aaron all about it when I get to his office. I was about to head out to Aaron's office when my phone started ringing, a smile crossed my face when I saw it was my grandmother calling, the last
AaronI just got back from my trip, I had called my wife to let her know that I would stop by at the office, I just wanted this over and done with, I glared at the cheque in my hand and turned my gaze away.I had invited Lisa over to the office to talk to her and make her understand that things are no longer the way it used to be, my heart yawns for only Tessa and I can't live without her.I just hope she doesn't get this wrong, I'm not trying to pay her off, I just wanted her to use the money to get back on her feet.I know this wasn't the plan but then life happened, life brought me Tessa.I saw the the blank expression on Lisa's face as I handed over the cheque to her, she looked disappointed at first and then a look I couldn't identify crossed her face before tears started rolling out of her eyes."I know it's pity that you feel for her Aaron but believe me she will be fine moreover, this was bound to happen, this marriage was a contract marriage that was supposed to last for a wh
Tessa Here I was, thinking Alexander was as scheming as Aaron said, but it turns out that he was actually right about Aaron the entire time, if only I had listened to him, maybe I would have stick to the contract and bottle up my feelings for Aaron. I was blinded by the love I had for Aaron that I fail to see who he truly was, he used me and I refused to be that vulnerable woman anymore. Why will he lead me on if he didn't feel anything for me? He just made a fool out of me, I must have looked so stupid to him all these while, I thought he loved me but I guess Lisa has his heart. "All men are liars, I fucking hate him" I cried out, as Alexander stared at me without uttering a word. "Calm down Tessa, it's not your fault" Alexander consoled me "Are you ready to go home now?" he asked. "Take me to my grandmother's house, I want to stay very far away from Aaron, I don't want to ever see him" I retorted, tears rolling out of my eyes. "Hmmmmm" he hummed and drove off. "Tessa darli
Tessa's PovI locked myself up for two days, crying my eyes out, I was tired, confused and angry, I could hear my grandmother knocking and pleading with me to open the door and hear her out but I ignored her. I wasn't ready to see her, probably because I was still mad at her.Aaron was yet to call me since I left his office, it's been two days and yet no calls from him, I'm so sure his secretary must have told him that I was there but what difference does it make? He has made his choice.He has chosen his first love over me, I should have known, what was I thinking? That Aaron would leave a woman he had loved for the longest time, just to be with me? This was bound to happen anyways But why do I feel used, betrayed and deceived?Aaron knew who he wanted, he knew he still loved Lisa, yet he claimed he was in love with me, he fooled me and I helplessly fell for his cheap tricks.So, all those love and affection Aaron showed me were all fake, gosh! I must have looked so stupid to him.A
TessaI entered the living room to meet the man and woman that was at our house a few days ago, I mean my parents. They both raised an eyebrow as I walked in."Thank you for agreeing to see us" the woman, Gianna said gently, I could see how her emotions were all over the place, she looked happy.I gazed at them, one after the other before I cleared my throat. "I'm sorry for snapping at you both, I know I should have handled the situation differently but I was just angry, I should have known better and I'm sorry, Grandma said you both would be in a better position to explain what happened twenty-three years ago," I said and paused, gazing at them.I watched them swallow hard, before my father, Lorenzo Vargas finally spoke up."It all started when my father, declared me the CEO of Vargas empire" Lorenzo began. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback to twenty-four years ago(A year after Lorenzo was made the CEO)Lorenzo's PovI lost my daughter and my first child Mia died in a ghastly motor accide
