Chapter 20Jenny walked out of Colin's house and quietly shut the door.She knew Colin had always been fearless and would do anything to get what he wantsBut this was getting too much.Going to meet Jackson Dream himself is more like suicideBut he never listen to anyone so she couldn't talk him out of it.She also didn't know the reason why he wanted to arrest Jackson Dream so badly.She recalled earlier he talked of taking revenge on him.What could have Jackson Dream done for him to want revenge so badly?She sighed as she entered her car and drove to a store down the street to get herself some snacks and a can of Sprite.She had not eaten anything throughout the whole day, as a lawyer, she is always busy and rarely have time for herselfNot to talk of now having to look after Colin too.If Colin gets into any trouble and is arrested again, it will be her responsibility.But she is not looking after him only because of that, there is more to it.Friendship and Love.She slowly cam
Chapter 21 Marissa woke up early, she made breakfast, did the laundry and also cleaned the house while Martin was still asleep. She herself could not believe she is doing the house chores. It was new to her, Back at her home, she never did any of these, Colin did them all. But now she is no more at home, she is now with Martin who does not look like he gives a damn about it. She would actually love to discuss getting an housemaid with him but it seems he is still mad at her about the last time. So she just held it in. At least until he is no more angry. She was in the dinning room, serving the food when Martin walked downstairs, knotting his tie "Good morning" Marissa greeted awkwardly. He replied with a nod and then walked to the kitchen to make a cup of coffee "I already made breakfast, why are you making coffee?" Marissa asked "I have no intention of eating your food" he replied and gulped down the cup of coffee before walking to the door "What do you mean?" Marissa
Chapter 22Colin placed two glass cups on the table in his living room and poured wine in both while Marissa watched"You are full of surprises Colin" Marissa scoffed"Same with you. From spying on me and now barging into my house, you just keep surprising me" Colin glanced at her and dropped the bottle of wine before taking a seat"Fine. I sent a spy because I was so damn curious about you" Marissa grabbed her own cup of wine and took a sip"Curious about what?""I mean, you claimed to be a poor orphan when I first met you but now you have a house, a car and I heard you have been visiting expensive restaurants" Marissa dropped the cup of wine back on the table "And you even served me a very expensive wine""So?" Colin raised his brow"So I am curious to know where you have been getting this money, have you been lying to me all these while? Who exactly are you?" Marissa asked with a poker faceColin was mute for a whileProbably thinking of an answerHe can't tell her who he really i
Chapter 23 Axel sat in the living room, knitting a scarf and also watching the news. The news of Jackson Dream getting arrested had already been aired and everyone in the city now knows. But Axel was not bothered about that, although it was a bit surprising to him that Jackson Dream would be a drug dealer even though he appeared as a judge to everyone. He was only focused on the scarf he was knitting. He was hoping one day he would meet the Lady he met at the store the other day again and he would give the scarf to her. It was cold that day but she was not putting on a jacket neither was she using a scarfSo he wanted to gift her the scarf. Or maybe he could call her. He grabbed his phone to do so but Andrew and Jason walked in, discussing about something and laughing. "What are you watching? News?" Andrew asked as he grabbed the remote "It's the news about Jackson Dream. I can't believe he is a drug dealer" Jason scoffed "He looks totally normal on the outside. Turns out he
Chapter 24Marissa took a cab back home, this time her mother's house, not martin's."Miss Marissa?" The maids greeted and also, they were surprised to see her back home.They thought she won't be visiting for sometime now that she is married and living with martin.She sat on the couch and rested her back as she was served a cup of wine."Marissa!!" Catherine yelled in excitement and ran to hug her.The noise made Andrew and Jason run out of their rooms."Marissa? Why are you here?" Jason asked"What do you mean why? This is my home after all" Marissa replied politely."That's right. It's so good to see you after many days, how is your new home?" Andrew asked as he and Jason also sat on the couch."It is so crazy. I am always bored since I am not allowed to go to work, the only thing I do is the house chores which can be exhausting sometimes" Marissa complained."So have you tried discussing this with Martin? How about you tell him to hire some maids" Catherine suggested"I would lov
Chapter 25Jenny stormed out of Colin's house in anger,She didn't know why she was madWas it because he got drunk and had to make her go through all the troubles of lifting him on the couch and all? orWas it because he mistook her for Marissa.Whichever one it was, all she knows is that she is mad at him.She turned on her car and drove down the street in a very high speed.While driving, she thought of never visiting him again, at least until he gets over Marissa.But a part of her felt like he need her.She stopped in front of a cafe to buy herself coffee.After buying the coffee, she was on her way out when her shoulder collided with her man's arm.She lifted her eyes and saw a familiar face."You?" She gasped, her face which showed anger a second again suddenly brightened up"Jenny" Axel called"Wow, you even know my name?" She jeered"Of course, you told me the last time we met. Are you here to get yourself a cup of coffee?" Axel inquired"Yeah. I already did" she showed him t
Chapter 26 "Colin?" He heard a familiar voice. He looked up and saw his mother-in-law standing in front of him with folded arms "Mother". His jaw dropped. It really isn't his day Why in the world did he have to bump into her "Wait a minute....." Mrs Williams checked him out from head to toe"Are you really Colin?" Great!She is doubting if he is really Colin Maybe he could use that opportunityHe could deny he isn't Colin and run away "No, I am not Colin" he denied "Do you take me a for a fool or what?" Mrs Williams smirked "Why are you coming from that restaurant? You didn't get a job here, did you?" "No..." "Of course you didn't. We already made sure no one in this city employs you" Mrs Williams interrupted but still needed a good answer. Why in the world was he coming out from an expensive restaurant? "Well....that's just because, I...urm..." Colin stuttered Even though he moved out of her house and he divorced her daughter She still looked terrifying to him "Is
Chapter 27"What are you guys doing here?" Axel opened the door.For some reasons, Marissa felt relieved he came at that moment.Having sex in a storage room was never part of her plan."Axel, why are you here?" Martin moved away from Marissa"That question should be directed at you" Axel replied rudely"I don't know what you want but get out, I am discussing something with my wife" Martin replied back with the same tone."I wonder what you are discussing while holding each other like that in this holy place" Axel opened the door widely and leaned on itMartin arched his browHoly place?Come onIt's just an empty storage room."I am sorry but can you at least leave us for some minutes" He requested but Axel was adamant and won't even move an inch"Why should I? This is my aunt's company and I work here. If someone must leave, it should be you" Axel gagged.Marissa was quiet.What could she possibly say?She also wants Martin to leave but Axel was being disrespectful too."Marissa, ca
