Expecting

Throughout the three years of their marriage, Basil Fulton only sees Celia Goodwin twice a month. And each time, all he does is bed her like it's part of his job. He doesn't care about her or know anything about her. When the three-year contract is up, he immediately drops everything to go to his true love. At the same time, Celia walks away with poise and grace. "Let's get a divorce, Basil. I'll give you what you want." From then on, she stops expecting anything of him. She switches her focus from family to career. She shines brighter than ever, reclaiming her place at the top, with no room left for him by her side. Meanwhile, he finds himself increasingly captivated by her talent and drawn to her bit by bit. But when she walks away for good, he uncovers the truth—he's forgotten her not once, but twice. It was she who crossed oceans to stand by his side, fiercely protecting him, all to repay a life-saving debt from long ago. Regret hits him hard, but she's already out of his league. The road to win her back is long and grueling, and all he gets in response is a firm declaration that she no longer wants to be his wife. This time, he vows to protect her… but he'll need to play hardball to do it.

“I don’t want you. I hate you.” Those words from her only son slice deeper than any blade. Sarah returns from the hospital expecting love, only to find her place at the family table stolen. Her husband, James, stands arm in arm with Tiana — his late brother’s widow, while her son clings to the other woman’s waist, rejecting his own mother. The betrayal does not end there. After a confrontation with Tiana, she woke up in an abandoned building, her hands tied, and mouth taped. Beside her was Tiana too. Tied. James stood, his confused gaze darting from Tiana to Sarah. And then came the baritone voice from one of the kidnappers: “One life. One choice. You can only save one. Choose!” Sarah turned, seeing how Tiana was communicating with the kidnappers with her eyes. She struggled to let James see the truth; that this was all a setup. But she couldn’t. Her mouth was tapped. But then, like a match striking steel, James’ voice came brittle and final. “Tiana.” He chose his ex over his own wife. Over the mother of his child. Sarah was abandoned in the warehouse. Immediately they left, the warehouse exploded, covered in flames. And Sarah’s screams and cries inside, filled the night. Did Sarah survive the fire outbreak? If she did, can they stand her revenge when she finally returns?

“S..top! I don’t want anything to do with you.” She stuttered out in a fluster once he backed her into the wall. “Oh!

She bit her lips to regain her clarity and then sent a kick towards his crotch. He had expected it though so he caught her leg with a smirk and then his hand began to climb up her thighs. She gasped clearly not expecting that. “ You might not want anything to do with me but your body does. And it is so truthful in showing it.” He sniffed at the air “ I can smell how wet you are for me.” Almyra found herself married to Xavier after a one night stand gone wrong.
