Thank you all for reading ❤️❤️❤️
Each step was a measured dance, a symphony of caution as Megan held coffee in her hands. She walked steadily towards her formidable mother-in-law, Mrs. Wilson.“What took you so long”. She asked in a high-pitched voice and a facial expression mirroring the wicked stepmother character in Cinderella.That woman was the root of all evil.“I apologize mother, I burnt myself while making your coffee, that was why I took so long”. Megan spoke out, showing the red scar on her finger. "Why should I care about your mishaps? Mrs. Wilson scoffed mockingly. Just hand over the coffee”.“I adjusted the sugar just as you have asked ”. Megan's lips raised with a polite smile.This was the second time she was making the coffee, since Mrs. Wilson had complained about the last one having too much sugar.And this has been her life for the past five years. She fell in love with Greg during their university days and married him, hoping for love to win.Megan nervously looked up at the large clock on the w
Megan squeezed hard on the divorce papers Greg threw at her. She looked at it sorrowfully to see that it had already been signed by him.She always knew Greg had little or no feelings for her. He had married her immediately after he broke up with Elizabeth. And now that she thinks of it, it seems he married her just to spite Elizabeth and make her come back to him.Megan gazed into the direction of the window with disbelief evidenced in her beautiful green eyes. While Greg stood in the glow of the evening, petting Elizabeth and whispering sweet nothing to her.They seemed so perfect for each other, as their features complemented one another.“I've signed the papers. You should also sign them so that we can finalise the divorce at City Hall tomorrow”. Greg said without taking his eyes off Elizabeth, who was still crying.“Since we didn't have any prenuptial agreement, there won't be any delay in finalising the divorce”.Megan was speechless. “Does your mother know about this?”“She doe
In the dimly lit room, Elizabeth laid peacefully on Greg's chest. Her thoughts were occupied by the image of Megan getting into that sleek Rolls-Royce.Her eyes flickered, with uncertainty and insecurity. Could it be that Megan was just lucky, or there was something more? She moved uncomfortably on Greg's body before she spoke out.“Greg, do you think Megan has another man?” Her eyebrows raised, giving an impression of her obliviousness.“Why?” He asked, pretending to be indifferent, but deep down he wanted to know more.“I saw her get into a Rolls-Royce after she had signed the divorce papers”.He wanted to laugh at Elizabeth's face, but he didn't. He knew well enough that Megan didn't know anyone, and neither did she socialise with people during their five years of marriage.“Megan doesn't know or has anyone of such, it's probably a taxi. After all, most taxi these days use good cars”.“I am scared, babe, Elizabeth's lips trembled pretentiously. What if we get caught. What if she is
Greg couldn't believe his eyes right now. Megan was supposed to be behind bars, but here she stood firmly. His breath hitched as his eyes widened in realization. “I feel hurt, Greg, how could you just insinuate that I wouldn't be here on this important day”? A playful smirk tugged at the corners of her lips.“I… I thought you weren't coming”. Those were the only words he could think of.“Did you think I wasn't coming, or you hoped for me to be behind bars”. Megan said with a sinister grin.Greg's eyelid twitches nervously, did she know what he did?“I would like to file for domestic abuse. Megan didn't waste time turning to the lawyer. Do you think that is possible?”“What!!” Greg could see the walls of the office closing in on him. Where was this coming from?“You are not out of your mind, Meg, but you seem to have forgotten your place”. His jaw tightened. We are here to finalize our divorce, so stop spitting nonsense”“No ma'am I can't help you with that”, The lawyer spoke in favor
Chapter 5Megan in a dark room laid on a large queen size bed, how she got there was a mystery. A few minutes ago, she was with her friends having fun, but suddenly, she wasn't. At least that was what she could remember.Her breath increased rapidly as she felt rough hands on her belly. Wasn't she alone, her heart pounded and at the same time she felt ecstasy build up slowly in her body?She wanted to speak, but it was more like her voice had disappeared.“You know what”! Megan’s heart thundered in her chest as she heard the hoarse and manly voice. This confirmed the fact that it was a man.“I haven't had sex in the past five years”. Alex drunkenly said. He felt the innocence of the lady beneath him. It's been so long since he had sex.So his body burned violently as he couldn't hold the desire to take her hard. He immediately brought Megan closer, taking her by the lips.She shouldn't be enjoying this right, he was with a total stranger. She was supposed to scream for help. But why d
Chapter 6“What did you say, dear”?Mr. Leonard was shocked as Megan announced that she wanted to take over the m&k fashion group.He never imagined that his daughter Margaret would have any interest in the company.“Yes, dad, Megan can take over. We know she is intelligent and has the ability to make the company triumph”. Loyd interjected.“Will you shut up, pastor?” He was reminded by the fact that Loyd just announced that he wanted to become a pastor.“You ungrateful soul. After everything I did for you. This is how you repay me”. He gave a long look at Loyd before turning towards Megan calmly.“Margaret darling, you do know that this comes with a lot of responsibility and time. Are you sure you can actually take over?” He explained while gesturing his hands.“Yes dad”. Megan replied without moving a muscle on her face.“Okay”. Mr. Leonard took in a long breath as he struggled to decide.“I cannot fully keep it under your care, Margaret. This company was one of your mother's greate
Chapter 7 Greg paced the living room of Mr. Chase as he awaited him in his study room. His thoughts were running wild and anger brewed in his blood. The door creaked, revealing Mr. Chase in his three-piece suit. He had an insipid expression on his oval face. “To what, do I owe this visit, Greg”. He said with suspiciousness laced in his eyes. “I… I need your help, sir”. Mr. Chase could not help but feel irritated. What else did he want? If it wasn't for the fact that he was his daughter’s fiancée. He wouldn't even spare him a glance. “Speak”. Mr. Chase thundered. “It's my wife. I mean my ex-wife, Megan”. His eyebrows knit together as a flicker of embarrassment crosses his face. “I don't know how she could fucking afford a lawyer, but I am sure she is playing mind games with me. She went as far as suing me for domestic abuse. I want to teach her a great lesson”. He said with gritted teeth. “If you could just help me…. “What!”. The thunderous voice echoed in the room, interrupt
Chapter 8 It's been a week since Alex’s one-night stand. In his handmade tailored suit, he stood rigidly while staring blindly at the windows. He was deep in thoughts. Thought that were dangerous if they were more than that. His face was straight, like someone who hadn't smiled for years. “Sir”! John, who happened to have entered the office with two envelopes, interrupted Alex's silent dialogue with himself. “What did you find out?” He asked coldly without facing John. “Mr. Jackson has been found in Italy. Apparently, he leaked confidential secrets of our newly made design and was looking for an appropriate time to sell it to our biggest rival," Jackson paused before continuing. "Silverline group," he added with a cringe. “So when Jackson, Asher, and Mike drugged you up to have a nice time with a woman. Sir Jackson has another agenda, which he carried out immediately”. “That was why silverline group claimed right and accused us of forgery. But thank God you took care of that, s
