“I found out I was pregnant at the ER, after Sarah rushed me there after I overdosed.”

Do you know how the world just freezes for a moment - just a moment - and you can’t move a muscle even if you try so hard, and you can’t breathe because there is no air around you.

Just for a moment, the whole world just freezes.

And you are fighting against it with all the muscles in your body, and suddenly it just unfreezes and your body just jolts out of control.

That’s how I felt.

I stood up too fast, knocking the dining chair backward and stumbling, my last second reach-out to the edge of the dining table saving from tumbling backward after it.

And Olivia just sat there like she was talking about the weather. Like she had not just told me that she had tried to take her own life. Because of me.

All the puzzles fell into place.

When I pretended to be depressed, when I pretended to be wrecked by the guilt of my wrong-doings, she stayed because she

    _____...○ ○ ○ J A C K S O N ○ ○ ○.“Excuse me?” I had to give it to her - even though she knew whatever she was hiding had been caught, she was still putting up a fight to make it seem like I had it all wrong. “What on earth are you even talking about? What would I even do? I am not into planning and plotting like you, you know? Just in case you forgot.” She laughed nervously. She tried to pry her hand out of my hold but I just grabbed on to her harder, but also making sure that it was not firm enough to hurt or bruise. I gave her the silent stare-down. Well, any other person would have folded in a second but this was my wife and she was pretty familiar with all of my ‘techniques’ to get things down so she was holding herself up despite the pressure. “Are you going to come clean?” I asked when I realized that we were not getting anywhere. “Or do you want me to make some calls and figure out what is going on? You know I have the resources.” Olivia shrugged, holding her bluf

    _____...○ ○ ○ J A C K S O N ○ ○ ○.I beelined for the front door as if my ass was on fire when I heard the beep of the door unlocking. I knew it was Olivia, because I had handed the responsibility of keeping Kelsey occupied for the night to her darling aunt and uncle. And they were at Sarah’s.Sarah was not happy having William in her house but too bad, he was sticking on to her like chewed gum. Sucker was whipped and he did not even realize it.Though, given her own history and her history with William, I did not know how Sarah was going to feel about the whole attraction. She seemed unaware of the big bad lawyer starting to change around her. Olivia took off her high heels as soon as she entered the foyer, switching them out for her much comfier bunny slippers - matching ones for Daddy, Mommy and Monkey that Kelsey had thrown a tantrum to buy. She looked up and grimaced. I blew out a breath - I had come running to meet her like some kid who was coming to their parents wh

    ____...○ ○ ○ O L I V I A ○ ○ ○.“What are you doing here on a Sunday?” The guard at the company asked as I walked over to the entrance after paying the cab driver. I shrugged. “Just one of those days when I just want to be away from everything.” I did not know why I was being so awfully honest but I just did not have the energy to pretend that I was fine. Not when my heart was burning with a brand new fear. Jackson Reign was completely capable of manipulating full-grown adults. How hard would it be for him to manipulate Kelsey into thinking that I was the bad guy in the story? I had suspected that he would sanctify himself to the point that it would seem to Kelsey that the man’s only goal in life was her happiness. I had never thought that he would attack my relationship with my daughter. My phone buzzed in my hand. It had been pinging for so long and I had muted it. Now, Sarah was calling me. She was probably worried about how my spat with Jackson went down. But I did

I will come back in another ten minutes?” I spun around on my heels so fast that the woman flinched. I looked at her name tag - Journey…? JOURNEY???“Journey” I blew out an exasperated breath. “It’s ‘Zhor-nee’ actually.” She smiled, completely straight face and not even blinking. The woman had seemed so normal a few minutes ago. “Right… Zhor–nee.” I breathed out a sigh of relief when she nodded. I did not want to get cancelled over this. “You know what happens when you make one mistake, Zh… You know?” “You fix it and move on?” “Right.” I snapped my fingers. “That’s what you do. You fix it, and YOU MOVE ON, right?” “Right.” She nodded. “Did Ms. Smith and you fight over the coffee caramello? I could drop the order if you want.”“God, I wish it was that simple!” I ran my fingers through my hair. “No, don’t change the order. Just tell

I shook my head before I even took a bite. “We have way too much coffee as it is, and so do most of our guests. The last thing we need at the wedding is something that tastes like coffee.” The attendant nodded and was about to pick the plates back up when Jackson stopped her. “Well, we have not had any coffee today so why not try it out? What if you fall in love with it despite your reservations?” I glanced over at him and then at the cake. He was using cake analogies now?“It’s hard to fall in love when you know exactly what to expect from it.” I struck back. “It’s better to avoid it rather than have your taste buds irritated.” Jackson pouted but I could see that the wheels in his head were turning. He leaned forward to get a spoonful of the cake and held it against my mouth. “Humor me a little.” He said. I rolled my eyes - at him and t
