Lucky for both of them, Mrs Haward was still enjoying her sleep but Mirenda saw Jason and Julia leave the house together as she was coming out of the kitchen after getting her cup of coffee. Mirenda wondered where they were going and how they were going. Jason would not spend more than two minutes with a woman, irrespective of your reason. "He will keep a distance of not less than 2 m between himself and a woman, how can he be walking closely behind this lady?" Mirenda thought as she walked towards her room sipping her coffee. "Hello, Sis?" came James's voice, interrupting her thoughts before she could enter her room. "Hi," Mirenda replied. "Jason left for work already?" James inquired. "Yes, with his beloved wife," Mirenda replied and closed her door before James could ask any further questions. "Huh, it appears Jason is serious about this woman. He messed up my plans. It would be good to know if he went to work with her. It will be a piece of interesting news to give to Mu

Mrs Haward frowned on seeing Jason returning with the old man. Jason had a servant prepare a room for his grandpa without saying anything to Mrs Haward. Jason ignored Mrs Haward as he walked past her helping the old man to his room. Mrs Haward looked on as the two walked past her. "This can't be happening. How did he find him?" Mrs Haward thought as she bit her nails. "Does it mean he doesn't believe anything I say?" she thought. "Think Matilda, think?" she thought, pacing up and down the living room. "You raise this boy and know his weak point. Think of something?" Mrs Haward said as she continued pacing but immediately stopped when an idea hit her. Mrs Haward quickly went to the kitchen and prepared Grandpa's favourite drink, a strawberry milkshake. She placed it on the tray and carried it to the old man's room. "Can I come in?" came Mrs Haward's voice. Jason frowned, but the old man said nothing. "I just want to apologize," Mrs Haward said, still standing behind the door. Ja
Woke up married Chapter 19: The Marriage Certificate
Mrs Haward did not know her husband had found out what she had done. In her mind, she believes Jason may have found out about his father's will. She was just looking for something to confirm her suspicions but little did she know that her husband had arranged Jason's marriage. "Mum, look what I found?" Mirenda called out to Mrs Haward, snapping her out of her thought. "What did you find?" Mrs Haward asked. "It looks like Dad knew about Jason and his wife's marriage," Mirenda announced, showing her the marriage certificate which she had picked from Jason's room. "If my husband witnessed this marriage, it could only mean one thing. He knew," Mrs Haward thought, her colour draining off her. "Mum! Mum!" Mirenda called and shook Mrs Haward, realizing she was off. "If Dad knew about Jason's marriage it could only mean it was an important decision he had to make," Mirenda said after careful thought, knowing her father very well. "Mum, what are you not telling me?" she asked, looking at

"Mum, how can you assign me to do this," Mirenda murmured in the shower. "She is gross," she added. Meanwhile, back in the dining area, dinner was over, and it appeared no one enjoyed their food except Grandpa. Mrs Haward left the dining area, went to the living room and started going through the TV channels. Jason descended the staircase to the living room and was glad to find Mrs Haward there. He walked up to her and looked at her for a while. "Mum, she is my wife. We are legally married. When the time is right, I will let you know the details. So I would appreciate it if you left her alone," Jason said. "She has been through a lot. I will plead with you to stop making life more uncomfortable for her than it already is," he said in a calm voice. "Wow, I never thought I would see the day, my little brother would go all out and defend a woman from his heart," commented James, who had just walked through the front door, making Jason and Mrs Haward turn to look at him. "You are in lo
Woke up married Chapter 21: Power over her
The phone slipped from Mrs Haward's hand, crushing it to the ground and shattering it into pieces. Everything started making sense to her. "Julia is my husband's daughter?" Mrs Haward repeated the words on her lips, and it felt like multiple needles went through her heart. She was using the excuse Jason was adopted to say he was not qualified for the position he holds right now in the family, only to find out he is the rightful heir by marrying the daughter of a Haward. "No this can't be happening, does Jason know the reason he married her that quick?" Mrs Haward thought. She picked up her phone, assembled it, turned it on, and called a friend. After talking for a while on the phone, she took a shower and went out to meet her friend. At the office, Jason sat behind his desk in deep thought. He recalled the incident that happened eighteen years ago. He was just six years old by then. His father, Mr Johan Haward, had gone to work and his mum, Mrs Haward, left him alone with the

Henry suggested. "You will love it," he added with a smile, and Jason gave it some thought. "You want me to have dinner with her in my limo inside the garage?" Jason asked, pausing in between words, making it sound like it was a horror movie with so many bizarre scenes. "Mr Haward, with everything you have said right now, you don't have a problem standing close to her, unlike with other women. You want answers to why you feel the way you do around her, and why you think the way you do about her. You can only get those answers by getting closer to her. Give it a try, and if at any point you feel the need to get away from her, then you will know she doesn't have any impact on you," Henry explained. Jason looked at Henry for a while but said nothing. "Take it as an experiment. Let's see what results we get. Mr Haward. If this works, we will know that, gradually, you are healing from the trauma," Henry convinced Jason and he nodded. A knock on the door interrupted their conversati

"Wow!" was all Peter could say, and his eyes widened like a bright light. "I guess we are ready," said Peter, and offered Julia his hands like an invitation to a dance which made Julia smile. "Time to go, my lady," Peter added, and led her out of the place. Peter opened the car door for her and closed it after she was comfortably seated. He quickly sat behind the wheel and smiled when his phone screen lit up. He picked it up, unlocked it and smiled at the simple message; 'The boss is waiting in the limo' He quickly typed a reply. 'We are on our way,' and he clicked send. The car engine came to life, and they drove out of the compound. It was getting late and Julia wondered where they were going. "Please, where are we going?" Julia asked. "Back home," Peter replied, and Julia felt more relaxed, but she had a great time at the spa and couldn't help smiling about it. Julia didn't give much thought to her appearance after Peter had informed her they were going home. After a cou
Woke up married Chapter 24: A night to remember - Part 2
Julia lifted her gaze to see he was pouring another glass of wine and was surprised to see him smiling. She had never seen him smile. Her eyes shifted to the big bottle of wine on the table, and she realized it was empty. He was drunk. "You like working in my company?" Jason asked, staring at the glass in his hand. "Yes, I do and thank you for giving me that opportunity," Julia replied. "Good, I like the designs you made and so did my clients," Jason said, smiling, and Julia wondered if he was talking about how she felt about working in the company or if he was talking about the project designs. "It was good work done," Jason added. Jason was more relaxed now as he asked one question after another and Julia could not keep up as he was just changing topics with each query. He opened the car door and stepped out, pulling Julia with him. Jason emptied the glass of wine and threw the glass away, breaking it. Julia jumped at the sound of the breaking glass. Just then, the guard appear
