Third Person's POV Celina didn't say anything about what Jefferson had told her, but there left a light of hope that their marriage will become fruitful in the future. Noli invited them to a meal and they obliged. "You should know that this is your treat." Jefferson told him which made him laugh. "When did you become stingy?" his friend asked. "When I married her." he replied, smiling as he knew that he would be getting a violent reaction from Celina. Which he was not wrong at all. "When did I teach you to become one?" she asked. "When I left you spent no more than 1000 a month. Maybe you were thinking that I am going to compute everything that you will be spending while I'm away, so I realized that I am stingy." he replied, looking at her raising her brows not leaving her gaze. "Eherm, love birds, please note that I am still here." Noli said and Celina looked at him, shyly. Jefferson grabbed her hand and squeezed it slightly causing her to turn to him again. "Don't mention him,
Jefferson's POV It was our first date and I was looking forward to it and it could have been better if that friend of hers didn't come and came in between us. Celina already told her that we were on a date and yet, she still didn't decline my wife's offer. Xia has something on her that I didn't like and I wanted to know more about her. We were in our bedroom and Celina was getting ready to sleep. "How did you meet your friend?" I asked. She looked at me with a creased forehead, "I am not a bit interested in her so stop having wild imagination. Your beautiful and she doesn't have the a** to die for which you got and I was addicted to." I told her if she ever thinks that I like her friend a bit. "Then why are you asking about her?" she asked. Her back on the headboard so I sat beside her, "I don't like her. The way she looked at me and you, it was totally different." I told her. "You must be cautious of her." I added. "What's wrong with the way she looks at you and me?" she asked.
Celina's POV Xia had been my friend since I came to the orphanage. Yes, she was being bullied by the others when I first saw her and I pitied her so I helped her and fought back against those kids who were bullying her. I was never a pushover and if someone hurt me from any of them, I see to it that I paid them back, double the pain, double the suffering. Xia didn't leave my side after I saved her from those bullies and we proclaimed ourselves partners and had been to punishment and detentions together. At first, she was crying, but when I told her that I was there for her, that's the only time that she stopped. I always hugged her when she was scared. For me, at that time, we were each other's strength. Daniel and Lalaine adopted me and I promised to her that I am going to visit her often, since I thought both my adoptive parents loved and wanted me. But because it was the total opposite of what I had expected, I never got the chance to visit her. I was so worried about her bec
Celina's POV "Xia," he said just as I knew. "Why do you suspect her?" I asked. I was really curious. He doesn't really like my friend. "I just had a feeling. If you have a woman instinct, I do have a man instinct as well." he replied which made me roll my eyes on him. "What did I tell you about rolling your eyes?" he asked and then I looked at my work. I didn't want to look into his eyes when he was talking like that. "Celina, I am serious. If you can't stay away from her, just make sure to be extra cautious." he said before he got up from his seat. I followed him with my gaze as he went back inside our bedroom. I sighed heavily and looked at the fake credentials I had to show to the Nicholson couple before. It was true that besides my adoptive parent's, Xia was the only one who knew about this. What should I do now? Morning came and Jefferson was in his office. I was getting ready to work when Xia called me, "Hey," I said, as I answered. "Celi, let's go out. We didn't talk m
Xia's POV Celina was so lucky to get married to Jefferson. When I first found out about it when she told me that, I was already envious of her. How could the old Mr. Scott married his son to her? I remembered how were back in the orphanage; The kids were bullying me and she saw that and interfered. I felt relieved when she showed up and fought them. She had bruises all over her but she didn't care. She told me that she's going to stay with me and she did. But because of what she did, she became famous in the orphanage. The fact that she was really beautiful made all the boys admire her and the girls envious. I am also one of them. She was very confident ever since so I thought she was really smart. But when we had our little class, she always said that she didn't know the answer so I thought I am better than her with studying. But even after that, the boys still liked her. I often heard other kids tells me behind my back that I was her slave because I was always following her. Alt
Jefferson's POV I don't get why Celina couldn't see the kind of person Xia was. Is she that blinded by their friendship that much? When I called her and found out that she was with that woman, I got worried so I told her to text me where she was and what time they were finished. She replied and informed me that she was going to send Xia to the bus stop like he always does, so I decided to wait for her there. When the bus left, I drove in her direction and I didn't need to tell her to get in, then we went home together. She got in our room first and I grabbed her hand after I closed the door. He looked at me confused, so I asked her, "What did I say you should do when your husband comes home from work?" "We both just came home." She replied. "That is not an excuse." I told her as she stared at me. "What, are you just going to look at me?" I asked impatiently. "Are you asking me to kiss you?" She asked with wide eyes. "No, I am telling you. Since you didn't want to, then I have
Celina's POV Just what was wrong with me? Why can't I say no to his kisses and touches? I don't remember myself being this wanton over a man. He had this effect on me and I started to worry about me in the future. I had never been into a man and he was my first with everything. Surely, I will never forget about what I heard when he just came back and I was still thinking about it because of that, I was torn because I didn't know whether he was going to divorce me or not. With what had happened to us for how many times now since he came back, what if I get pregnant and then he will tell me that he wanted to divorce me? I can't let that happen. I need to make sure that he is going to stay with me and never give that woman a chance to take him away from me. If I had to seduce him all the time, I am going to do it especially when he wants me. The way he calls me "my Celina" was very possessive and there's a part of me that likes it. Without thinking I called him "Jeffy", just where
Third Person's POV Jefferson arrived at his office and Daria handed him an envelope that contained the report from the investigator whom he asked to look after the sender of all of Celina's credentials. It was supposed to be private, especially the one in the orphanage. “When did this arrive?“ He asked. “This morning Sir,” Daria replied and Jefferson nodded. Then he opened the envelope and started reading the report. He took out his phone and looked at his call register. “Please contact Nicko again and have him look into this number.“ He told Daria and left his office, then he continued reading everything about Xia. He felt pity for her but he thought that it was not a valid reason for her to do what she was doing now with Celina. Whatever she had been through, Celina had nothing to do with it, so he made a decision to make sure to warn her about her friend. He was thinking whether he would tell Celina about what Xia had gone through. He had a feeling that she would only feel pity
