Semua Bab Her REV LOVE: Bab 21 - Bab 30

I arrived at Josephs & Co. Jewelry Company, ready to go ahead and develop the business my late father had left in my custody. I had hardly stepped out of my car when I heard a voice that was all too familiar calling my name."Lydia."I turned and found Frank gazing at me with a nostalgic look on his face. I frowned and let my car keys fall into my branded handbag.I was wearing a short white skirt and a statement jacket, along with white pointed stiletto shoes that morning. My hair was pulled back into a neat ponytail, accentuating my beautiful facial features. "Mr. Lanka, what brings you to my company this early morning?" I asked."I've been trying to call you many times, but my calls were not being answered. Lydia. I mean, Miss Josephs, we need to talk," Frank said."There's nothing to talk about, Mr. Lanka. I think I made myself very clear the last time: Our partnership is over," I replied coldly. I was determined to cut Frank out of my life entirely.The last few days had demonstr

My hands trembled as I looked at the pictures in my hands. Hatred and anger burned in my eyes as I cried, "No! No. it cannot be!" I couldn't believe what I was reading as I scanned the pictures. Having found I was losing Frank to Lydia, I had enlisted someone to stalk her so I could obtain something that I might use against her. But I obtained something which surprised me to the core upon seeing pictures of Lydia with two children standing with her. "Lydia has children?" I whispered to myself. Gulping for air, I re-viewed the photos and examined the children's faces. The little girl did resemble Lydia, but the little boy's face brought my heart crashing down. He bore such a strong resemblance to Frank Lanka. "What's going on? How could Lydia's child look like Frank? Unless." "No! No, it's just a coincidence!" I shoved my thoughts aside at once. I didn't want to think about it. But I couldn't help it. the evidence was right in front of me. Both these children were a spitting image o

I was about to speak when Lydia's words echoed in my mind. I smiled at Lydia and said, "Are you jealous?" "What?" Lydia was taken aback. She stopped in her tracks and stared at me with shock. How did I reach that conclusion? "Well, you are so upset because I have a fiancée. the only explanation is that you are jealous," I said with a chuckle. "You—" Lydia was glaring at me. My smile just got wider, and I felt I had to straighten her out. She baldly stated, "I'm not jealous! There's no reason to be." But I was sure that Lydia was jealous. Why else would she be upset that I was flirting with her when I had a fiancée? My heart felt light for some unexplained reason. I smiled and told her, "I'm taking you to the hospital for a checkup." Before Lydia could figure out what I did, I lifted her off the ground. Being picked up unexpectedly, she wrapped her arms around my neck. When I told her what I had done, she kicked her legs and shouted, "Put me down! I did not let you carry me!" "S

I caught up with my friend Adan to get a couple of drinks. I took the chance to ask him if they were making progress on the investigation. Adan shook his head and said, "Something does not smell right, bro. My boys are really good at gathering information. but this case has been a challenge. We have not heard anything new since the last time." I narrowed my gaze. I recalled the way Lydia reacted whenever I moved closer to her. like she was hiding something and worried I would find it out. I took a sip of wine and instructed, "Keep looking. Pump more money if possible. I need to know everything about Lydia Josephs." Adan nodded, acknowledging this mattered to me. Adan took out his phone and began scrolling through his social media when he came to a headline. His eyes widened in horror. "Oh shit." I glanced at him lazily and said, "What's up? One of your women again?" "No, man. I don't know if I should show this to you," Adan said. "Why? Is it something to do with me?" I as

At Lydia's apartment, the twins had returned from school and were in the playroom.Jack sighed as he viewed the news on his tablet. He shook his head and tutted prior to speaking, "Daddy is so dumb. He let Mommy go to someone else."Precious pouted. She looked at her brother and asked, "Is Mommy going to marry Uncle Dean? Does that mean we'll grow up without a Daddy?""Uncle Dean is not bad. He loves Mommy and since he is the one Mommy wants to marry, we just have to accept him as our Daddy," Jack told his little sister. Precious's eyes filled with tears and her lower lip quivered. She said, "But I want Uncle Frank to be my Daddy.""Precious, the man Mommy loves will be our Daddy-"No! I want the handsome Uncle. I love him despite the fact that he's dumb," Precious protested and tears flowed down her face.Jack felt sympathy for his little sister. He kneeled down and cleaned her tears, saying, "Don't cry, Precious. Such a baby. Don't worry, I saw Mommy being kissed by Daddy last night
