“Umm.. W-what do you mean by that?” Catalina asked and swallowed hard.

“You’ll find out” He whispered and smirked before going to the stairs.

“The maid I hired already cleaned the rooms so you are free to choose any room of your taste” Frederick said and went upstairs.

Catalina released the breath she was holding.

“What did he mean by ‘you and me’. Is it me or he had that flirty gaze… What is happening?” Catalina asked at once

She sighed when she couldn’t get answers to her questions before going upstairs too.

She checked the various rooms and finally settled with the one of her choice.

“Wow” She gaped as she stared at the spacious and luxurious room. If one told her she’d one day get to sleep in such a room she would have called the person a liar.

She brought in her things and began arranging her clothes in the wardrobe. Her clothes didn’t even occupied up to half of the wardrobe.

Once she was through, she walked to the bathroom to have a shower…

<LAMBERT HOSPITAL>

“You’re one-month pregnant ma’am, make sure you eat healthy and don’t stress the baby too much.” Thalia said, hanging the stethoscope round her neck.

She had her hair packed in a ponytail and was wearing the white coat for doctors. Today was her first day of work and so far it has been good, she was really enjoying herself doing what she loves.

“And sir, you’re a lucky man. Your wife is so pretty, make sure you treat her well. Congratulations once more” Thalia said to the man beside the lady who smiled and kissed his wife’s cheek.

“Thanks so much doctor Lambert, we’ll take our leave” The man said and stood with his wife.

They both exchanged pleasantries before the couples left. Thalia smiled and went to attend the other patients

👥 Isn’t that the wife of the owner of the hospital

👥 Yes, she’s the woman that stole her best friend’s fiance

👥 I can’t believe how kind she is… The news were totally wrong about her

Thalia finished checking up on a patient before going to her office. Flynn made to sure she occupied a comfortable office.

She walked in to see Flynn staring out of the window..

“Hubby? How long have you been here?” Thalia asked.

“Not too long ago. Wanted to know how my gorgeous doctor is doing” Flynn said and kissed her forehead.

Thalia chuckled..

“You’re too sweet” Thalia pinched his nose.

“Even down there?” Flynn smirked.

“You’re too naughty” Thalia shook her head and sat down on the swivel chair.

“I’ll come pick you up by 5pm.” Flynn said.

“Where are we going?” Thalia asked.

“It’s a surprise” Flynn smiled and bent down then kissed her lips.

Thalia smiled and kissed him back. Flynn turned the chair so that she was facing him. He broke the kiss and kissed her neck.

“Hubby… Hubby, wait I have work to do” Thalia moaned out, trying to push him off.

Flynn groaned and reluctantly stopped.

“I’m so gonna cripple you when we get home” Flynn whispered and stood back up right.

“Go away! I won’t be able to concentrate with you here” Thalia stood and began pushing him towards the door.

“Fine! I’m leaving” Flynn sighed

Thalia opened the door and he walked out. She made to close the door but he walked back in and pinned her on the wall.

“One last time” Flynn muttered and claimed her lips.

Thalia smiled and wrapped her hands round his neck, kissing him back.

<NELSON’S PLACE>

“Mmm..” Alice moved on the bed abit.

Her eyes immediately flew opened and she spranged up the bed, looking around.

“Was about to call the doctor.” A voice spoke and she turned to her side to see Nelson sitting there..

“Here, I made breakfast for you. I know it’s not that tasty like what you eat at home but just manage it” Nelson placed the tray on the bed.

“Thanks” She took the tray and began eating slowly.

“What time is it?” She asked.

“Past noon… You slept so long that I had to miss school to stay with you since my parents has to go to work.” Nelson said.

“Alice,, for the uptenth time.. Are you okay?” Nelson asked.

Alice looked at him and slowly looked down. Tears slowly began trickling from her eyes.

“No… I’m not okay, I’m not” She shook her head and finally broke down in tears.

Nelson’s eyes widened. He wasn’t expecting her to cry.

He climbed the bed and sat beside her and began wondering on what to do to calm her down.

“What if she breaks my head if I try to hug her” He pondered and swallowed before slowly wrapping his hand round her.

When she didn’t push him off, he began patting her hair.

“It’s okay… Everything will be fine, just let it out and you’ll feel more better” Nelson cajoled her.

Alice slowly hugged him back, crying her eyes out..

Nelson swallowed hard, her b**bs was pressing hard against him as she cried.

“Her b**bs are so soft and bouncy.. I had no idea that’s how it felt” He thought and smiled sheepishly.

<STARSHIP HIGH>

“Gosh! How I hate maths! I understood nothing in it” Calvin groaned.

“Maths is my favourite subject. I can teach you if you want” Aubrey said

“Oh thanks but Dream is already my tutor” Calvin smiled.

“Dream… Right” Aubrey said and rolled her eyes jealously.

Calvin smirked when he saw that.

“Did you just got jealous or I’m I-”

“You bas***d!!!” Drake screamed, running to Calvin.

He threw a punch at Calvin but Calvin was quick to dodge it. He made to throw another one but Calvin caught his wrist..

“Remember your punishment. One more fight and you’ll be expelled” Calvin smirked.

Drake pushed his chest.

“Who do you think you are to raise your hand on me!!.” Drake shouted.

“I’ll do that over and over again till you learn to respect women. Women are not just some toy which you can use and dispose how you like. They’re like eggs, they need to be treated with great care and delicacy which you’ll never understand because you’re a moron!!” Calvin shouted back.

“You-” Drake made to punch him

“Babe, stop please” Clara came in between them.

“You’ll get expelled” Clara said.

Drake folded his fists tightly and brought it down. He looked at them.

“Calvin mark my words… You’ll cry and that day is fast approaching. And you Aubrey, you regret it” Drake said seriously and stormed away.

Clara glared at Calvin and Aubrey before going after Drake. Calvin smirked and dipped his hands in his pocket.

“All what you said about women… Did,, did you really mean them?” Aubrey asked.

“Of course I do. My sister went through something that traumatized her and I’ll never wish for any other lady to go through the same thing” Calvin said..

Aubrey looked at him and then smiled.

“Why are you smiling at me that way? I’m I too handsome to resist” He smirked.

Aubrey’s smile fell. She rolled her eyes and hissed before walking away

✧✧✧✧✧✧

<SPAIN>

“I’m hungry” Catalina pouted.

“Let’s see what is there to cook” She stood up from the bed and left for the kitchen.

She walked in the kitchen and went to the fridge then began bringing out the various ingredient she’ll need to cook.

Once she was done, she began chopping the ingredients while humming a song.

Frederick who was heading to the kitchen to grab a bottle of water stopped by the door when he saw her cooking

He leaned by the door and smiled as he watched her cook. She was wearing a big white T-shirt with a bum short and pink fluffy flip-flops.

For the first time, she wasn’t wearing something long enough to swallow up her legs and Frederick couldn’t help but notice her smooth spotless leg, going up to her àss who’s roundness was clearly glaring in the bum short.

Frederick immediately shook his head, shaking off the perverted thoughts in his mind.

He walked in till he stopped right behind her. He bent down to her level to see what she was doing.

“What are you cooking?”

“Argh!” Catalina shrieked and quickly turned to face him. She gasped at how close his face was.

He just had a shower so his messy hair was sticking to his forehead yet he still looked so handsome.

“Catalina?” Frederick called bringing her out of her reveries.

Catalina blinked and shook her head

“Uhh.. I wanted to make some beef stew.” Catalina said.

“Mind a little help?” Frederick asked

“Sure” Catalina said and handed the knife to him.

“Help me slice the tomatoes while I deal with the meat.” Catalina said and Frederick nodded.

Frederick went and washed the tomatoes then began staring at it dumbfoundedly. Catalina understood the look on his face and almost laughed.

“We slice it like this.” Catalina said and showed him how to do it.

“Oh I get it” Frederick nodded and did as she showed him.

Catalina continued what she was doing and once in a while, she’ll glance at Frederick. The serious look on his face as he sliced the tomatoes like someone who was writing an important test was enough to crack her up but she held back herself..

The way his hair was covering the side view of his eyes as his looked down made him look so handsome that for a span of seconds, she got lost starring at him.

“Ahh!” She winced when she cut herself with the knife..

Frederick quickly rushed to her and took her cut finger.

“Are you okay?” He asked with worry clearly evident on his face.

“It’s just a slight cut” Catalina chuckled embarrassingly. If only he knew she got lost staring at him that’s why she cut her finger.

“Does it hurt that much?” Frederick asked and looked up at her face.

Catalina stared at him for awhile before smiling.

“I’m fine” She said

“Be careful” Frederick smiled and kissed her hand before resuming what he was doing

Catalina looked at the placed he kissed and then at him with wide eyes, her cheeks obviously red.

✧✧✧✧✧✧

<5PM>

“Where are you taking me to?” Thalia asked.

They were both in the car with Flynn driving her to an unknown location.

“You’ll see” Flynn smiled

After almost 10 minutes drive, he stopped the car in front of a restaurant

“Restaurant? A dinner date?” Thalia asked.

“How I wish it was that but no…” Flynn said and intertwined their fingers.

They both walked in with some people taking pictures of them as usual. They entered the VIP sector which Flynn booked

“What are-”

Thalia paused when she saw two figures she least expected to see.

“My daughter..” Thalia’s mom stood up, guilt and shame marred her face.

Thalia’s father, Mr Hewitt looked so happy to see his daughter was fine and healthy.

Thalia looked at the two of them and turned to Flynn.

“Flynn, let’s go. I don’t want to be here” Thalia said, fighting back her tears.

“I know you’re mad at them, reason why you never talked about them to me but just try to listen to them” Flynn said softly

“We’re so sorry my baby… We shouldn’t have judged you too quickly. I could have known better that my Thalia will never do such things. I’m so sorry” Mrs Hewitt broke down in tears.

“Me too my child. Please forgive us for believing the public instead of you. Your husband came to us and told us everything that happened, we’re so sorry” Mr Hewitt begged and made to kneel down.

“No dad!” Thalia quickly rushed to him and stopped him.

“I’m also at fault here, I shouldn’t have married your daughter out of her own will and I’m also asking for forgiveness.” Flynn said.

“Let bygones be bygones” He added

Thalia looked back at her father and without wasting time, she hugged him tightly. Mr Hewitt hugged her too.

“I missed you so much dad” She cried

“Me to my child, me too” Mr Hewitt sniffed, fighting back his tears.

Mrs Hewitt came and joined the hug too as the family cried into each other’s arms.

Flynn smiled as he watched them…

They broke the hug and Mrs Hewitt smiled, cleaning Thalia’s tears.

“My Thalia look so pretty…” She said.

“Doctor Thalia you mean” Thalia chuckled.

“What!!” Mr Hewitt’s eyes widened and Thalia smiled then nodded.

“I already bought a mansion in your name, you guys can move in whenever you want since it’s already equiped with everything you’ll need.” Flynn said.

Mr and Mrs Hewitt stared at themselves with wide eyes. Did they hear right??

“Son, you shouldn’t have. How can we be able to pay you back” Mr Hewitt said.

“Consider that as my way of asking for forgiveness for my wrong deeds and besides I’ve promised to my father to love and take care of my wife, Thalia loves you guys so much and it’s my duty to take care of all those she loves” Flynn said.

“Awwn” Mrs Hewitt gushed in the place of Thalia.

Thalia just stared at Flynn, not knowing what to say again. Never in her life did she imagine getting married to a man that’ll love her this much

Flynn spread his arms and she quickly rushed to his embrace. He kissed her hair and smiled

“I love you” He muttered

Mrs Hewitt placed her head on Mr Hewitt shoulder, feeling happy for their daughter.

✧✧✧✧✧✧

<JOLIE’S PLACE, 9PM>

“What! He’s drunk!” She exclaimed..

“Okay, I’ll be right there” She muttered and hung up then quickly wore her cardigan before leaving her apartment.

Someone just called, using Marcel’s phone telling her that he’s drunk and this is the second time that it’s happening. Ever since Catalina turned him down because of her, he became cold and distant with her and he’s been drowning his sorrow in alcohol.

Loving someone for more than ten years now must really be hard when rejection kicks in.

She got down the cab and walked in the club to see Marcel, shouting at the bartender

“Are you deaf!! I said I want one more bottle!!” He shouted.

“Sir you’ve drank too much ” The bartender said.

“Are you my father to-”

“I’m here” Jolie rushed to them

“Thank goodness” The bartender said.

“Here, sorry for the nuisance he caused” Jolie settled Marcel’s bills and lifted Marcel up by the shoulder.

“Let me get you home.” Jolie said

“I don’t want to go home! I wanna drink till I forget this pain I’m feeling!!” Marcel said drunkenly.

Jolie walked out with him and spotted Marcel’s car. She took him in the car and placed him at the passenger’s seat before entering the driver’s seat.

“Good thing I have a driver’s license” She thought and drove off to Marcel’s place.

She got down the car and struggled with him as they walked in his apartment till his room..

“You’re so heavy!” She dropped him on the bed.

“Why did you drink so much huh! I know heartbreak hurts but you just need to move on.. Take a look at me” Jolie muttered, removing his shoes

She began fixing his head on the pillow well when Marcel suddenly pulled her down, with him now on top.

“Max..” She placed her hand on his chest trying to push him off

“I love you so much Cat” He thought and crashed his lips on hers

Jolie’s eyes widened in shock. Marcel was f**king kissing her!!

She made to push him away but Marcel’s hands began moving all over her body. She didn’t know when she released a moan in his mouth.

Marcel broke the kiss and kissed her neck.

“I love you so much” He whispered as his hand squeezed her àss..

“Owww Max…. S,, stop” She said, more like a moan. She wanted to stop but her body was slowly betraying her

Marcel claimed back her lips and slowly she began reciprocating the kiss

When he pinched her n*pples, her senses left her body

Her hands found it’s way to his hair as she began kissing his back wildly too.

He pulled off her gown and her pantie, her bra too while Jolie undressed him quickly.

“Ahh…” She moaned out as he penetrated her, thrusting fast into her.
