Bianca shakes free of me and continues on her way, but pauses to throw two words at me over her shoulder.“Who’s Jessica?”“The woman whom you just spoke to over the phone and who coincidentally, is the same woman whom you knew I was in love with.”“Oh? You were in love with her? But that did not stop you from shoving your wandering cock inside someone else?” Samantha sneers. I pause in my tracks for a moment. Had I really told her that I was in love with Jessica? Had I been in love with Jessica? Is it possible to fall in love in such a short span of time? I don’t know the answer to this question, but now is not the time to ponder on it either.“Who are you? What do you have against Jessica and me to do this to us?” I ask her instead, wondering how I could have been such a terrible judge of character, yet how on earth could I have known? Having sex with this woman is easily one of the worst things that I have ever done in my life.“Oh, please! Don’t be so dramatic. We’re both adults.

“Never mind how I know. Also, I’m not interested in all that story that you just told me. Anyone in their right mind would know that pretending to like someone for years, while you secretly hate them, all because of a man, is nuts.”“It’s not just all…”“Look, I don’t care. But I asked you one question that you refused to answer. Does Jessica know you’re here? Does she know that you’re pregnant?”“No, I haven’t seen her for a while now. Since she got rid of your baby, actually. I couldn’t stand to be near her after she spoke so ill of you, especially because I know that you’re a nice man. I mean, many men would have kicked me out, yet here you are taking care of me, despite not having met the cutie that I’m sure our baby is going to be. But that’s not all. The fact that she even entertained the notion of having the baby, not because she wanted it, but because she wanted to use it against you did not sit right with me. It’s probably best that she got rid of it instead of bringing an i

CHARLOTTEEveryone thinks that I’m a monster, but as I sit moodily in my dingy cell, and marvel at the unfairness of it all, I make a vow to myself. They will all regret turning against me. Every last one of them, starting from that traitor called Charles. It nauseates me to think of how much of a weak ninny he is, and galls me that he is actually my blood.To think that he would turn on his own sister, and then after doing that, go ahead to wine and dine with our enemies is beyond me. He’s content to receive peanuts from our late father’s estate, while that usurper called Sebastian, enjoys our rightful inheritance, along with that his moose of a wife. Also, there's our birth father's wife, who even until now, lives in one of the mansions that should rightfully be for Charles and me, and flies around in his private jets.Charles doesn't even have a private jet to his name. Hell, I don't even think he flies first class anytime he travels by plane, but he is content to be a slave to tho

CHARLESTo my great relief, Bianca leaves my house the morning of the next day after I threaten her. I wasn’t kidding with the threat though. I know that I haven’t heard the last of her though, but at least, for now, I will have some rest. On my day off, I fly over to see Sebastian at his house. We heartily exchange pleasantries, and I play with his son, who is almost one for a while. His wife Carol, is around, as are her dad and my stepmother, who are seeing each other and are even almost at the stage where they’ll get married.Unfortunately, Thomas’s estranged wife, Belinda is making a nuisance of herself and making the whole thing difficult for them. Still, they love each other, and their love waxes strong by the day. Dinner that night is a boisterous and lively affair.After dinner, Sebastian and I go to the garden, where we talk about everything and nothing, from business to sports and other trivial things. Finally, he asks about my private life.“What’s going on with you nowada

Before I leave for Sebastian’s mother’s place, I call Samantha for the last time, already resigned to the fact that she would not take my call. The last time I called her, a man answered the call and then Samantha had come and taken the phone from him, explaining that he was her boyfriend.It stings a little that she’s abandoned me all because of a man, and while I understand and appreciate the fact that she’s in love, I don’t understand why that means that she has to cut off all her friends. To my surprise, she picks up my call, and even sounds quite cheery on the phone.So I tell her that I’m going to stay with Sebastian’s mom for a while, just in case she decides to visit me unannounced at any time, something that she’s fond of doing. I’m surprised when she calls me a few days later and begins to ask me the details of my journey, such as at what time I’ll be at the airport and what time my flight is leaving.When I ask her why she’s asking me such questions, she informs me that she
