Veronica's POVI didn't know what to expect but I still placed Glynn's number on call. It's been a while since he sent me crazy text messages or bumped into me but I had this feeling it was time for us to work together. “What did you say? Veronica? Did you just call me? What!?.”I pressed the phone tighter to my ear, my heart racing as his voice came through. His voice sounded shocked and rough like he had been waiting for this call. My hand slightly trembled and for a moment I regretted ever reaching out to him but I literally didn't have options.“Yes, Glynn. It’s me,” I answered, my tone low but firm. “Don’t sound so surprised because you are excited to hear my voice. You knew I would eventually reach out to you one day. It was only a matter of time before I realized that I need you to help me win against my enemies.”There was silence for a while and I could hear his breath in my ears like he had held the phone to his mouth.Suddenly, he chuckled darkly. “So, the mighty Veronica

Veronica's POV For the first time in a while. I was grateful that Glynn was in a way connected to my life.He didn't hesitate to agree to help me.He was willing to help me for the love he had for me. Though I perceived that as foolishness, to him it was his strength and I was going to play along sheepishly until I achieved what needs to be achieved.I looked at him with a small smile, pretending to be softer even though that was the exact opposite of what I actually felt.“Thank you, Glynn. Thanks for the kind words. Thanks for your advice and for being willing to stand by me. It's hard to find anyone who likes you. So tell me, what would you like to have? An espresso or an iced Americano?” I asked, keeping my tone light.His eyes brightened immediately, and he leaned closer with that foolish grin that always made me roll my eyes in secret. “I’ll have whatever you’re having, Veronica. I would have ice cream if you want to have ice cream. Anything your heart desires. As long as you’

Valerie's POV Let's get this done by next week but I'll be dropping by the boutique to pick up a few things. Baby clothes and accessories.” I uttered over the phone to the boutique manager.Her voice suddenly lit up immediately, with excitement dripping from every word. “Oh really? Madam Valerie! I can't believe my ears actually. You don’t know how happy this makes me. You are coming to shop at our boutique?.” She asked, making sure she heard me very well.“Oh my goodness, ma'am. It will be such a great honor to have the wife of the CEO shop at my branch. This is a real honour ma'am. I literally can’t wait to welcome you personally and give you a tour around our branch as well. Everything will be prepared ahead of time. And of course, I will make sure you get special treatment. You'll shop with the best discounts ever. You deserve nothing less. Your baby deserves the best.” I smiled faintly, stroking my belly and shook my head even though she couldn’t see me. “That won’t be necessar

Valerie's POV“Welcome home, Baron. You got me so worried.” I took his bag and led him into the sitting room. His face looked really tired, his shoulders slumped as though if he carried the whole world on them. I sat down and watched him sink into one of the cushion chair, and my heart ached with fear and worry.“Finally, Baron, you didn't even call me back after your message. I was so worried. Do you know how restless you made me be?” I asked softly, sitting beside him. He reached for my hand, squeezing it gently. “I know, Valerie. I am so sorry I got you worried. I should have called you but I texted instead. But I am here now.” His voice calmed me.I cupped Baron's tired face gently in my palms. I rubbed my thumbs against his cheeks a softly and caring a so could. I had to help release his stress. His skin was warm and I leaned closer to him whispering softly, “Baron. I am glad . Now that you are home all my fears are gone and my worries vanished. I can finally breathe again

Baron's POVI watched as Veronica exit my office with so much pride that it could kill a herd of cows. I hated her pride, her arrogance and most especially her desperation.Why is it so hard for her to understand that everything can't be about her?Why can't she move on with her life as a ought to?What was so hard for her to comprehend? Why was it so hard for her to understand that times had changed and that she wasn't a part of me anymore?I leaned back in my chair, running a hand over my face as frustration burned inside me. Veronica was like a shadow that I couldn't run from. She was a lingering shadow that refused to leave even when the light was gone. She was slow to comprehend how fast things change and she kept chasing afater a dream that had died long ago. A family shs planned out but can't never be rebuilt.She didn't know how much I dispiseed her for truck to ruin my relationship with Valerie. Seeing her always left a bitter taste in my mouth, the type that make me want
