021: Then Prove It

MIMI "You look so happy Mimi." Kathy muttered under her breath as Lilly turned to me with a scowl. Why wouldn't I be pleased? After all, I had finally beaten Lilly at something. I held eyes with Lilly as I turned to meet Kathy's pathetic gaze. The only reason she invited me was because of Enoch, he was hoping she could take after me, like I could actually teach her how to actually get pregnant. "I am." I hummed, lifting my glass of wine in the air, ever so gleefully. Kathy moved closer to me. "Is it the arrangements for the memorial that has you so excited?" She asked as I shook my head. "Maybe she killed someone." My heart stopped at Lilly's comment. I almost choked on my saliva as she turned to me without a fucking care. "Don't you say things like that. Are you insane?" I yelled, my mood ruined about the death of Rendolf. Even without trying, Lilly always finds a way to piss me the fuck off. "Why would you say that Lilly?" Kathy got up to quickly get a bottle of water

022: I want a paternity test

CORRIE Devon's face shifted in confusion, seemingly to him I just spoke gibberish. He steps back a bit, trying to process my words. "You can't, can you?" I clicked my tongue at him. So he could leave me for her but he couldn't give her the same fate. "C-Corrie.." he stuttered, his hands running through his hair. I rolled my eyes at him heading for the door. He stood in front of me, preventing me from leaving. "You've made your decision, move." I hissed as he shook his head. "I can't leave her, we have a son together. He's four. I can't just abandon them because of a mistake we made." So now it was a mistake to him? "We had a son too." My voice breaks as I spoke. "He was four also. You got her pregnant and left Haven and I. So? What are you trying to say? I deserve what you put me through? I and my son weren't worth it?" I raised my voice at Devon, I felt vulnerable as his hands reached to comfort me. I slapped his hands away from me, I would never let him patch me back togethe

023: I've been framed

CORRIE I dragged my feet to my apartment. With all that's going on, I couldn't stop thinking about where the pregnancy test came from. My heart skipped a beat, wondering if it was from Mimi, but it didn’t make sense—it was out in the study room. Since I didn’t even put it there, who did? I straightened my back, trailing to my apartment. I had just finished tutoring Emery—more like babysitting her. I took longer than usual because I was trying to locate Emmette's bedroom. I almost got lost, so I gave up. At this rate, I won’t find Emery's birth certificate. I heaved a sigh; I was already close to my apartment door. My eye caught a dark hooded figure in black. I paused, scanning the stranger who had his back leaned against my door. He turned to me, and my face flushed in relief—it was just Salem. He flashed a smile at me, and I couldn’t help but smile back as I approached my apartment. "You’ve been busy," he smirked, slowly inching his face toward mine. "Hmm... how long have yo

024: Alias

CORRIEMy heart raced, this could not be happening. The police officer looked to Mimi, unaware of what he should do, she looked just as confused with Salem pushing his hands towards the officer's face."Officer, he's just covering for her. Arrest this woman and lock her up." Mimi finally spoke."I'm not covering for her, the drugs are mine." Salem spoke up."And why should we believe you? It was found in my son's bag. Are you saying you were the one who snuck it in there?" Mimi muttered as Salem walked towards her, his jaw clenched in rage."You want a victim don't you? It's either you cuff me up or I'm not letting anyone take her." Salem muttered in a low tone, the officer unhooked the handcuffs as he proceeded to cuff Salem.My eyes slowly well up in tears, my hands clung tightly to Salem.I shook my head slowly, my throat burning but all he could do was flash a smile at me."It's okay. I'll be back before you know it." He claimed as the officer walked him right out my door. Mimi fo

025: Use me

CORRIENothing was more shameful than this. I was sprawled in a prostrate position, my head bowed before the family I despised most—all because of something that was entirely their doing.“Get up, Corrie.” Mimi’s voice broke through the haze of my humiliation as she rushed to my side. She knelt down, pulling me up by the shoulders and into a warm embrace.“What are you doing?” she whispered, her tone laced with mock concern.“All this theatrics for a criminal?” she continued, her voice rising slightly. “You’re making it look like we forced you into that position.” A single tear glistened in her eye, though her words, sweet as they sounded, dripped with venom.Before I could gather my thoughts, a commanding voice broke through the room.“What’s going on here?”“M-Mr. Emmette, p-please, it’s not what it looks like,” Mimi stammered, tightening her grip on me as though we were in some heartfelt moment. “Corrie barged in here, demanding we help her pay a bribe. We refused, and then… she j

026: A big mistake

CORRIESince I agreed to the contract marriage, I didn't want a second big wedding. I had a big wedding once and I it meant nothing because I had to slave the entire years of my marriage with Devon. It was my punishment from Amelia for trying to upstage Lilly who also had a big wedding as well.Emmette and I settled for a court wedding, nobody needed to know we were married for now for my safety. I had initially taken my time to get dressed by a professional stylist and makeup artist Emmette had sent.When they were done, Salem stood watching as they finished making me look presentable. Although this thing was supposed to be a secret, Emmette was putting too much effort for a contract wedding. Imagining we actually had a big wedding, I'm pretty sure he would have done more.The makeup artist and the stylist waved me goodbye as they went out separately. My hair was styled to perfection, each strand falling gracefully into place. My makeup was flawless, accentuating my features with ju

027: The first night together

CORRIEI froze. My phone in my hands as my silky robe draped all over my body. I can't believe that I was going through with this. I sucked in a breath. I tapped the door ever so lightly as I wait for Emmette to answer the door.The door creaks open. Emmette was in a Robe as well. His brows knit of confusion, a tapestry that made it easy to read.What could I be possibly doing in front of his bedroom."Corrie? Can I help you?" He asked as I nodded."Won't you let me in?" I smiled seductively. He let out a small sigh, I let myself in as he shut the door behind him and locked it."Can't sleep?" Emmette muttered but I was too busy getting awed at his bedroom. It was massive, it didn't make sense that he'd need this much space. I turned to Emmette who sat down on a cushion. Glasses tugged tightly to his face as he scrolled through his tablet."Emmette since we're married," I paused taking off my robe with one flick back ward. The only thing on me was lingerie that barely left anything to

028: I will always win

MIMI"Hi Sarah." I greeted my niece as she just nodded and forced a smile. She didn't say anything else. I watched her from the rearview mirror going through her phone. I shrugged, the only reason I was picking her up was because Lilly insisted I do. With Devon against me, I need all the allies I could get, even Lilly could do."How was school Sweetie." I muttered trying to make conversation.She ignored me, her eyes still glued to her phone. What a spoiled brat, she's just like her selfish mother. I fixed my rearview mirror and started the car and began driving. Herod was next on my list.Ever since Devon knew about Herod's paternity we've been fighting non stop and Devon started treating Herod differently.Herod thinks it's because we fired his tutor and thinks having Corrie back everything will go back to normal. If only his four year old mind knew that slut had sullied my marriage.He's been depressed and that was begining to show in his results. I'll have to get him another tutor

029: The mistake has already been made

CORRIE"But I was on birth control, I took a plan b. How could I get pregnant?" I raised my voice in fear. How did I get to this point? I should have listened to Hatty, I should have gotten tested."The good news is you don't have AIDS or any STI's which is surprising to hear from Devon." She muttered while I still bit my lips in denial. What was I going to tell Emmette? That I'm pregnant for another man?"You could schedule an abortion, if you're this panicked." Hatty muttered as I shook my head."I need to think, I need so time to myself before making a decision." I said as Hatty nodded."Of course." She paused looking pitifully at me. "You'll be okay?" She said as I nodded.I got up and shakily walked out of her office and out of the pharmacy.As much I don't want anything to do with Devon, maybe this is my chance to right my mistakes. Maybe this baby was a second chance at having Haven. I shake my head in disgust, when did I become this desperate?My phone rings from my bag, I pi

030: Didn't you hear my wife?

CORRIE Ba-thump. Ba-thump. Ba-thump. The sound of my heartbeat pounded in my ears. My chest tightened as my breath hitched, and I struggled to calm the storm within me. Emmette leaned back slightly, his eyes fixed on my face, and I felt the weight of his gaze. My nerves were a mess and all I could think about was what was going on in that head of his? He tilted my chin upward, his thumb brushing the corner of my lips. Instinctively, I shut my eyes, almost as if it were second nature. My heart hammered louder, drowning out everything else as I braced for the kiss that I thought would follow. But it didn’t come. His hand lingered, still pressed against my lips. Confused, I opened my eyes to find a teasing smile dancing across his face. Slowly, he withdrew his hand, the smirk on his lips widening. "There was something on your lips," he said casually. "I was just helping you clean it off." I froze, mortified as warmth crept up my cheeks. "Oh..." I stammered, straightening in my se
