"Finally, I have people who are aligned with me," Mrs Haward thought and smiled as Mirenda could not see her face. Southwest Ranches City, Jason's apartment, Tilly was with Julia trying to get her to eat something, but she would not. Julia lay in bed, curled up like a shrimp, staring at nothing. Tilly looked at her very worried. Her friend looked very pale and, at this rate, Tilly knew Julia would fall sick and might probably not have the will to recover. Tilly placed the bowl of soup she was holding in her hand on the table and pulled Julia out of bed, making her stand on her feet. She held both of Julia's shoulders and shook her, making Julia stare at her face. "Hey, I miss her, she was my mum too," Tilly said sternly. "But do you think mummy is happy with what you are doing to yourself right now?" she scolded. "You will seriously accept defeat and let the people who caused you this pain walk free?" Tilly questioned Julia and, without waiting for an answer continued. "Beca
Woke up married Chapter 10: Flash Memories
Not saying a word to anyone, Jason went down the elevator to the garage and drove out of the compound. One of the guards saw Jason leave and quickly got into the next car and went after him. Jason never drove himself anywhere, so the guard knew something was not right the moment he got behind the wheel. It was more obvious something was not right when he just walked past them without saying anything, which was quite unusual for him. Jason sat in his black Maybach just driving with no destination in mind. Lost in thought, he did not notice the old lady crossing the street and almost hit her, missing her just by a couple of inches. The old lady was settled, placed her hand on her chest and collapsed to the ground. Jason was sitting in his car unsure of what to do, but the guard that had followed him got to the scene on time and quickly got out of his car. The guard rushed to the side of the old lady and carried her into his car. He quickly went to Jason and Jason rolled down his sc

Jason shut down his laptop and picked it up, looking around to see if he had left anything behind. Peter took the laptop from him, and they exited the building, driving back to Southwest Ranches City. At Aventura, back in the family house, the big condo, James had returned from Chicago after visiting the two businesses of which he was the CEO, according to his father's will. He was very happy about it and wanted to share his joy with his family. As a person who loves women, he didn't disappoint his family when he returned from Chicago in the company of a beautiful young lady. "Oh, James, is that your new PA?" Mirenda asked, knowing very well, James was just being James. "You can say that," James replied, smiling and offered the lady a seat. "She is the PA of my heart," James said, leaned in and kissed the young lady's cheeks, making her blush. Mirenda rolled her eyes at James's reply and Mrs Haward joined them in the living room, hearing Mirenda talking to someone. "Who is this
Woke up married Chapter 12: Unannounced Visit
"Good, I have a plan, but I need your commitment. We will use everything to take back what belongs to us?" Mrs Haward said, and James nodded. Mirenda had music plugged in her ears, so she didn't follow what her mother and brother talked about. "Mirenda!" Mrs Haward yelled, causing Mirenda to jump in her seat. "Are you with us?" she questioned. Mirenda looked at the four eyes looking at her and she nodded a 'yes'. "Good," acknowledged Mrs Haward. Southwest Ranches City, Jason's apartment, Julia and Tilly sat on the bed chatting in Julia's room. It was past 9 p.m. "Having something to distract you is a good idea," agreed Tilly. "I am thinking of going back to driving the school bus," said Julia. "Why do you want to do that when you have an opportunity to have your dream job," Tilly said, pointing in the direction of Jason's room. "Wait, you mean I should ask him for a job?" Julia asked with an eyebrow raised. "Yeah. He is rich and powerful; he can use some of his contacts

Mrs Haward opened and closed her mouth but no words came out as she stood staring at Jason's face. "Apologies, it's not my fault. You usually don't have women walking around your house, so I thought they broke into the house," Mrs Haward said and sat down on the sofa. Jason frowned listening to Mrs Haward's excuse, but he ignored her, knowing she had just thrown them out of the house because they were not up to her standard. "Mum, what is the reason behind this unannounced visit?" Jason asked, sitting down on the sofa opposite her. "Yeah. I just needed to understand some things, so I could give you my full support. We will soon have to announce you and your wife to the world. It will be good to know her better before then. For instance, which noble family did she come from and what job she is in?" Mrs Haward said and Jason's face darkened. "But, I am a bit surprised. How long have you two been dating?" Mrs Haward inquired curiously. "Please let's go to my study. This is not a

"Good question, I have a plan, but I need your total commitment. We will use everything to take back what belongs to us?" Mrs Haward said and both James and Mirenda raised an eyebrow, staring at her. "Let's go to my room," Mrs Haward said, knowing the old man was around and could drop in on them anytime. Mrs Haward was very much aware of the old man's love for Jason and even though he appeared to be invisible in the house since the death of her husband, he would always want to get involved in anything that had to do with Jason. Mirenda and James followed Mrs Haward into her room. The old man stepped out of his room a few minutes later and saw the trio going up the stairs. He ignored them and went onto the balcony instead. "So, what is the plan?" James asked once they were seated inside Mrs Haward's bedroom. "We will start by moving in to stay with Jason," said Mrs Haward, crossing her legs. "Mum, what excuse do we have to move in with him, a visit?" Mirenda questioned. "Yes,

"We got evicted from the family condo," replied Mrs Haward, her eyes scanning the environment. Her skin crawled at the very thought of staying in Jason's apartment. She didn't want to be there but it was the only plan she could come up with within a short time. Staying apart will not help in executing her plans. Jason looked at the luggage and frowned. "What happened? I thought Dad, had that sorted out," Jason questioned. "Well, the rent expired without us knowing and, as per the agreement, there is a period within which the renewal needs to be done, or we vacate the premises. Unfortunately, we missed the deadline. We tried to get it back but the amount involved was unreasonable," Mrs Haward said and walked inside. "So, I asked myself, why waste all that money, when I have a lovely son who has his own apartment," she said, and made herself comfortable on the sofa. "So we decided to move in with you but only temporarily. At least till we get a new apartment," she said with a smile.

Mrs Haward watched the two, her eyes moving from Jason to Julia and vice versa. "Jason, for someone you claim to be your wife, I am very surprised by how you are behaving towards each other," Mrs Haward pointed out, and Jason snapped out of his thoughts, looking at Mrs Haward over his shoulders. "Shouldn't she be here welcoming you home with kisses?" Mrs Haward questioned, relaxing on the sofa. "Mum, it's nothing like that. She is my wife. It is just that she is going through a difficult time right now," Jason replied, and decided to continue climbing the staircase to his room, but he was stopped in his tracks by Mrs Haward's next statement. "Is she pregnant?" Mrs Haward asked, lying on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other as she flipped through a magazine she had picked from the magazine stand. "What!" said Jason, turning to look at Mrs Haward on the sofa. "I said is she pregnant?" Mrs Haward asked nonchalantly. "No," replied Jason with a frown. Aside from the day
