THIRD PERSON POVValerie’s every word went like several bolts of lightening to Charlotte’s brain cells, completely destroying every bit of the confidence and determination that Charlotte had guarded herself with earlier today when she thought of meeting the supposed mistress.Who would’ve thought…Who would’ve thought that Hudson would return to and cheat on his current lover/partner with the very woman he once divorced! Who would’ve thought?! Charlotte most definitely did not see this coming. She did not anticipate that a man she had so skillfully kept at her side would turn around, to return to the very woman he had left to be with her. A woman he divorced to be with her! His very own ex-wife!Hudson was cheating on her with his ex-wife!Wat was the world turning into? What was her life turning into?!So, all these years…all this time he had been with her, that they had lived together under one roof, raising their daughter together meant nothing to him? She wasn’t worth anything? Th

HUDSON'S POV“Hahaha! Wow, you want to use her to force me from reacting?” Charlotte jabbed, her tone mocking. “You want to avoid this conversation and brush it under the rug like its nothing?! No way! I said no way, Hudson! No fucking way!!”She screamed, throwing her bag at a furniture as she glared crazy at me. Looking at her now, with all her mascara staining her cheeks in heavy lines, I knew instantly that she had been crying.“How could you do this me? How could reduce me to nothing by sleeping with her?! Why? Did she seduce you? She threw herself at you, right? That’s why you had no choice and just gave in to your fleshy desires, right Huddie? It’s just a one-time thing or maybe two-time thing that has now ended and she’s the one not letting you go! That’s it, right? That’s what happened!” she cried out, her words sounding more and more absurd with every moment I spent taking in her features.Her brown eyes that I used to admire now housed a certain level of craziness as she ea

HUDSON’S POVThe minute that question sounded through from the inside, my heart rate quickened instantly. I had always made it a point to avoid bringing up conversations about her son when we were together, simply because of my selfish thinking that she had another man’s child. Like I didn’t a child with Charlotte as well… as much as I hated to admit, I did moments where my thoughts were simply nonsensical. Thoughts that I shouldn’t even be having in the first place! It was shameful to say the least…But I could not continue that way anymore. If I wanted to have Val in my life, I had to accept her son too. I had come to terms with that, the few days she had gone off the gride without talking to me. But right now, I wasn’t so sure what to think.That child of hers could actually be mine. He could be the same baby she was pregnant with back then when I was so stupid not to see past my selfish plots! But then at the same time, he could turn out not be mine. And belong to another man. But

HUDSON’S POV“The heavens are punishing me, aren’t they?”“They are angry with me. After everything I’ve done… they should be angry right?” I asked quietly, staring out the car windows in the silence of the night.“No boss, they’re not punishing you” James responded, like he had been doing ever since he met and literally helped me to the car from Valerie’s gates. “They are. I’ve been so clueless. So irresponsible…a rubbish excuse for a father, that’s what I am. Why didn’t I search more back then when I had you to find Valerie? Why didn’t I keep looking? Why did I stop?! If I hadn’t…I wouldn’t have made me kids live like they were fatherless all this time. I’m so useless!” I whispered intensely, punching my right thigh at the agony clawing at my heart.Abrille stirred a little beside me after that action and I tried to calm down a bit. Holding it all down as I watched her sleep peacefully, not knowing what a trash her father was.“Boss, we’re here. We are here at the mansion” James sai

CHARLOTTE'S POVThe sudden pause in the music quickly caught her attention and she turned in my direction. “You, owe me. You owe me an apology, and I suggest you get right to it, right now!”“Oh?” she exclaimed, cocking her head to the side as she released a mocking laughter. Totally unfazed by my glares, “You really are dumb, aren’t you?! Apologize to you? Unbelievable!” she mocked, laughing some more while I neared my brim in keeping in anger in check.“But then again, you couldn’t figure out where your darling Huddie got that music from, how could you possibly understand me now?”“What the fuck are you talking about?!” I snapped, moving even closer to her.“Oh Charlotte…lonely little Charlotte. How do you think I managed to get so close to you, if you weren’t so lonely? I honestly don’t get you; you know! You have been living with a man that barely hugged you for all the years you two lived together. He didn’t even have sex with you at some point, right? So, why then did he suddenl
