Lena's call was unexpected, and Taylor felt a knot form in his stomach as he answered her. He had an inkling of what she was going to ask him, and he knew he needed to be careful with his words."Hello, Taylor. How are you doing?" Lena's voice was like honey, smooth and alluring."I'm fine, Lena. How are you doing?""I'm doing great, Taylor. Listen, can we meet up? There's something I want to discuss with you."Taylor hesitated for a moment. He wasn't sure he wanted to meet up with Lena, but he knew he couldn't avoid her forever. "Sure, Lena. When and where?""This evening, at the Fairmont Hotel on 5th Avenue. I'll be waiting for you by 5 pm.""Okay. I'll be there."Taylor hung up the phone and leaned back in his chair, feeling a sense of dread wash over him. He knew that Lena wanted him back, and he had no intention of leaving his wife for her. He was happily married, and he loved his wife dearly.But he couldn't deny the allure of the offer she made. She had sent him a text message
Stephanie watched as Jane left her house, tears streaming down her face. She turned to Mrs Allison, who was still fuming from their earlier encounter and said, "I'm sorry for that, Mum. Jane is going through a lot, and I don't want her to feel like she's alone."Mrs Allison looked at Stephanie, her expression softening, and nodded. "I understand, Stephanie. I'm sorry for how I acted towards her. I just can't stand the sight of her after the way she treated me."Stephanie nodded in understanding, then sighed. "Mum, I have to be honest with you. I don't want to have anything to do with my father."Mrs Allison's eyes widened in surprise. "Why not, Stephanie? I thought you two have reconciled."Stephanie shook her head. "We had, but he did something that surprised me recently. He's been a huge disappointment lately. He stole our cars and denied it. If not for the fact that he confessed to you, we wouldn't have known that he was behind the theft."Hmmm..." Mrs Allison reacted."I can't bri

Lena used this to her advantage, knowing that she had a hold on him as long as he believed in her promises.They would go out on dates, take walks in the park, and even spend weekends together. Lena made sure that Taylor was happy and satisfied with their relationship. They talked about everything, and Lena made sure to know all of Taylor's interests, hobbies, and dreams.For Taylor, the relationship felt like a dream come true. He had never thought that someone as beautiful and talented as Lena would ever be interested in him. But with the promise of the manor empires, he f
Jane couldn't take it anymore. Paul was avoiding her calls and she didn't hear anything from him since she told him about the pregnancy. She didn't know what to do, so she started sending messages to Mrs Allison, pleading with her to speak to Paul on her behalf.Mrs Allison had been reluctant to get involved, but after several messages from Jane, she finally agreed to speak to Paul. However, she requested that Jane and herself go to see him together. Jane was hesitant, but she agreed.The next day, they both drove to Paul's house. Jane was nervous, she didn't know what to expect. When Jane and Mrs Allison arrived at Paul's house, they found him sitting in the living room watching television. As they entered, he quickly turned off the TV and stood up, looking at them with a mixture of surprise and suspicion."Hello, Paul. We came to talk to you," Mrs Allison said, trying to sound as serious as possible."What do you want to talk about?" Paul asked, his tone guarded."I hope you know J
"What? Why would she do that?" Rose asked, looking shocked. She remembered Lena, because of their first meeting, and the fact that Taylor usually mentioned her name in his conversations sometimes."She wants Taylor for herself. Are you aware she was his ex?" Michael asked. "He only told me he was his old schoolmate." "Well, Lena was his girlfriend. She had always had a crush on him, and now they're in a relationship." Michael reiterated.Rose's eyes widened in disbelief. "I still can't believe this. I never knew there was something between him and Lena, although she showed some signs the last time, and I showed my disappointment to Taylor. How could Taylor think of this?" she said."I don't know, Rose, but I had to tell you. I don't want to see you hurt," Michael said."I appreciate you telling me, Michael. I don't know what to do," Rose said, looking worried."I think you should confront Taylor about this. He needs to know what Lena is up to. I also think you should talk to a lawyer
Stephanie was shocked when Mrs Allison told her that her father had agreed to marry Jane because of the pregnancy. She couldn't believe it. She thought of the age difference between him and Jane."Mom, are you serious?" Stephanie asked, her voice laced with disbelief."Yes, darling. Your father wants to marry Jane. He said he wants to do the right thing for her and the baby," Mrs Allison replied."But mom, Jane is so much younger than him. What about the age difference?" Stephanie asked."I know, darling. But your father seems to be very serious about this. He doesn't want to raise a child out of wedlock; that's why he wants to marry Jane," Mrs Allison explained.Stephanie was still unconvinced. She felt that the pregnancy was not enough reason for her father to marry Jane. She knew that her father was not a good man, but she couldn't help feeling that he was making a mistake."Mom, I don't think this is a good idea. I mean, what if it doesn't work out? What if they get divorced? What
Michael and Rose were sitting together at a table in a coffee shop, sipping on a latte as Michael was scrolling through his phone. Michael had fixed a meeting for the both of them to meet. "I don't know what to do," Rose said, her eyes filling with tears. "I love him so much, but I feel like he's slipping away from me."Michael listened sympathetically, his heart going out to her. He knew what it was like to feel alone and helpless in a relationship.After a few moments of silence, Michael spoke up. "I can help you, Rose."Rose looked at him, her eyes widening in surprise. "How?"Michael leaned forward, his voice low. "I know what to do, Rose. I know what to do to help you get your husband back, but you have to fulfil a certain condition."Rose looked sceptical. "Like what?"Michael smiled. "Let's just say that I know how to make sure that Taylor and his girlfriend, Lena, are separated."Rose's eyes widened in shock. "I hope what you want me to do is not something illegal?"Michael s
