Cassie’s POV

“Hm…..I…….” I stammered.

Shawn’s stare was intense, pleading, and accusing at the same time. His words held deeper meaning, and I knew it had to do with his mom. He had always warned me that he wouldn’t let me go but this time around, he was pleading intensely.

I swallowed painfully.

“It wasn’t my intention,” I mumbled.

“I’m not talking about the past. I want you to promise me about the future. I saw your wedding band on the nightstand. My heart almost stopped when I thought the envelope you left behind was divorce papers. Just promise me that you won't leave me.”

“Why?” I whispered.

“So I can quit living in fear of waking up one day and seeing that you are gone.”

I nodded slowly, understanding where he was coming from.

“I’ll handle things more carefully from now on. I don’t wish for such to happen again, but if it does, I’ll make sure I listen to you before I storm out. It doesn’t matter how I feel about you; if you treat me in a way that I do not deserve, then

    Lauretta’s Pov “This better be a joke! I was literally on my own. I mean, we were on our lane, getting used to our fucked up reality when this dude came from nowhere, claiming to be the love of Cassie’s life, and now his number isn’t going through!” I stamped my feet in anger against the floor while pacing up and down the living room, typing furiously on my phone. “I’ve lost count of how many text messages and how many voice mails I left him.”My mom heaved a sigh where she was seated and massaged her temple. “Oh, Mom, please don’t tell me you are tired. You promised you are going to help me make sure I achieve my goal, and that is getting married to a Billionaire.”“Unfortunately, I am.” Rhoda voiced out. “I have never faced anything more challenging in my life. It’s as though the more effort we put into making that bitch’s life miserable, the sweeter her life becomes.” “We’ve patiently waited for the news of a ruined marriage, but there is nothing like that. I know I made you a

    Shawn’s POV “You’re so humble,” I mumbled, not cutting contact with my wife. “Is that a good thing, or?” “It’s new to me. I am always waking up to wishlists and demands from the women I have been with. They were confidently entitled. Maybe because they knew that whatever I gave them was just 0.1% of what I was capable of giving.” “Their appreciation was usually brief, and I wouldn’t hesitate to do whatever they asked. Though I didn’t do them directly. My secretary was always the one making sure their needs were met.” “You hardly ask me anything, and when I surprise you, you appreciate me endlessly.” “It’s crazy how a few of my past girlfriends would act like they owned all I owned by virtue of them being in a temporary relationship with me. Fast forward to today, I have my wife with me, but she’s shy to embrace what is legitimately hers.” “This is not to shame you for staying true to your values and your beliefs. But I really want you to embrace this life with me. It’s not a c

    Shawn’s POV. I chuckled when Cassie buried her face in the pillow, grumbling. “What?” I feigned innocence.My wife stylishly pulled her face away from the pillow. Her hair was messy; some stray strands of it tried to hide the blush on her cheeks, but they didn’t do a perfect job. She stared shyly at me with her gorgeous eyes. She was naked beside me, which was literally my favorite position of us, and my heart was literally filled with so much pride and joy that she was carrying my child. I have the most beautiful woman in the world by my side! “Didn’t we promise that no gifts?” She pushed the pillow away and sat up. I slowly did the same. “When was that?” I arched my brow. “When unwrapping the gifts I got earlier.” “They were all from my siblings. And I didn’t promise you anything.” “You did!” She challenged. “Well, I don’t recall. But that’s going to be a difficult promise to keep because I don’t know how else to express my love.” “Caring for me? Being nice?” “That’s not

    Cassie’s Pov I quietly shut the door behind me and took slow steps towards my husband. He was seated on a single couch, shirtless, with his tablet on his lap. Seeing me, Shawn pushed his tab aside and gestured for me to sit on his lap, which I gladly did. I couldn't help with the smile that crept to my lips the moment he wrapped both arms around my waist, buried his face in my neck, and placed a deep kiss there.“I was almost coming to find you. How did the convo go?” “It was good. She was happy to have me back.” “See! You are an important part of our lives already. I know it was just for a short while, but this house wasn't the same without you.” I smiled sadly. “I feel so guilty about that. I didn't think of how you all would feel; instead, I was so concerned about myself.” Shawn kissed my shoulder. “You have nothing to be sorry for. And it wasn't selfish of you to choose yourself first. I guess we all learnt a lesson from this. But most importantly, I am happy to have you ba

    Cassie’s POV “Welcome home, babe.” Shawn extended a hand, helping me out of the car. I smiled as I accepted his hand, then got out. He instantly pulled me so close to him, then rested his hand on the small of my back. I giggled. “We are not twins, remember?” “Are you sure about that?” He said as we began to take slow steps towards the entrance while the driver got our stuff from the car. “You’re my better half, so I’m always going to be in your business.”“You’ve always been. I hope I get used to it.” I chuckled. “You would, baby girl. Cos I’ll be working from home until further notice.” We were a few steps away from the door to the house when I stopped in my tracks, causing Shawn to do the same.“I don’t want to take you from work. I’m better now, and I think I already gave you my word that I’m here to stay. No one is going to chase me away from my rightful place. Not any familiar person or stranger.”Shawn leaned closer and kissed the side of my forehead. “It warms my heart t
