Sebastian was crushed! He sat still for the first sixty seconds wondering how his world had fallen apart. Two hours ago, he felt fulfilled and happy that everything was going well with him and two hours later, his life had turned upside down.Seb came back to reality and left his parents' mansion. He ignored his mother's plea of letting her or his father come with him. He was clearly in a state where they were afraid of him driving and besides that, they wanted to give him their support.Sebastian refused to allow his parents or any of his siblings to go with him to the hospital. He promised to call them to keep them updated..............After a couple of minutes of driving beyond the speed limit, Seb got to Lucendris hospital and made his way to the reception. He was directed to the ward where Jayda was.With quick steps, he made his way there. Entering the room, he saw Jayda seated on the bed in a hospital gown.Unintentionally, he ignored the presence of everyone in the ward, went
The Next DayJayda woke up with a cold and a slight headache. She was not happy about it because she was anticipating leaving the hospital today. But with her cold, she had no doubt the doctor was going to keep her in the hospital for at least one more day.To her surprise, she was discharged in the evening and that made her happy as hell. She promised the Doctor she was going to observe her bedrest thoroughly and would also take her medications at the appropriate time.Sebastian took Jayda to her apartment, prepared a warm bath for her and picked out a nightdress for her to wear.While Jayda had her bath, Seb made his way to the kitchen to prepare something for her to eat. He found ingredients for pasta and then began making dinner.Jayda walked into the kitchen looking all fresh and clean. She wrapped her arms around Sebastian's torso."Thank you." She smiled and then kissed his cheek from behind."For what?" Seb asked with an eyebrow raised."For taking care of me and enduring my cr
Sebastian swallowed painfully and ran his fingers through his already messy hair. His life was way more complicated."Where is he?" He asked, referring to Aaron."Taking a nap but he should be up by now," Katie said before making her way to where Sebastian presumed was Aaron's room.'What type of a father would he portray if Aaron was truly his son and he chose not to be in the little boy's life?'Soon enough, Katie came back with Aaron on her hip. The little boy was still kind of sleepy. He had his head rested against Katie's shoulder.Sebastian could not see his face properly and neither had Aaron seen him."Aaron, Your Daddy has come to see you," Katie said to her son.Aaron removed his head against Katie's shoulder, he became alert."Daddy?" He smiled, showing his dimples. The dimples were the only thing Aaron inherited from his mother, Katie.Katie had tears in her eyes, she knew it was a dream come true for Aaron to finally meet his daddy after days of him asking her about it and
As soon as Sebastian stepped into Jayda's apartment with the tubs of ice cream she asked him to buy, he was greeted with the aroma of his favourite food. For a while, he thought he had entered the wrong apartment. Then it hit him, it would be no other than Jayda that was cooking when she was meant to be on bed rest.Seb groaned, making his way to the kitchen where he met Jayda, effortlessly doing her magic.Jay's smile got wider as soon as she sighted Sebastian. She wiped her hands with a napkin, approached him, wrapped her arms around his neck, before standing on her toes and giving him a kiss on his lips."You were meant to be in bed." Seb accused."I took a long nap, I watched a movie then I was getting hungry so I decided to make dinner for us.""You should have waited for me to come back to make dinner," Seb said."You've been taking care of me since forever. I just thought I should return the favour." She smiled.Sebastian nodded. "In that case, I can't wait to taste the food, it
Sebastian rose to his feet. "Please let me explain." His voice came out almost like a whisper."There's nothing to explain, Sebastian. I regret accepting you into my life. Had I known, I should not have told you about my child. You were just using my innocent baby and me when you had your happy family elsewhere. A jerk and a bastard, that's what you truly are."Sebastian ran his fingers through his hair, he couldn't believe they were back to this stage of their lives; A stage where she did nothing but call him silly names."Please trust me Jayda, I didn't know about Aaron until recently" He defended with tear-filled eyes and a broken voice."I will never make the mistake of trusting you again. The roses, notes, love text messages, gifts, chocolates, sweet gestures, everything was all a lie. You never loved me, you wanted to get into my pants and leave me broken so you can get your revenge on me for calling you names or throwing my heel at you.""You know that's not true Jayda." Sebasti
The Next DayUnlike every other Tuesday, Jayda reluctantly stood up from her bed and prepared for work. She spent the whole of yesterday crying and sulking so she needed to catch up on so many work-related things that she didn't do yesterday.She cleaned up, changed into a simple but elegant dress, covered her puffy eyes with some makeup and proceeded to the kitchen to make herself a toast. She had no appetite but forced herself to eat half of it and washed it down with some orange juice. She took her vitamins and then left for work.Jayda stepped into her office building with a normal face when in all honesty, she was dying inside. She politely replied to the greetings of clients and staff and then made her way to her office to bury herself with work.Unlike the previous days where Jayda would delegate her work to interns, she chose not to see any of them today and instead do everything that needed to be done on her own. Maybe she did that intentionally, not to cross paths with Olivia
Sebastian was seated on his dining table, absentmindedly playing with his dinner. The last time he ate was last night when Caleb ordered him takeout and he only ate a little of what he ordered. He had no appetite; instead, he was worried about Jayda. He really wanted to know how she was doing, if she had had dinner and all of that.Resisting to dial her number or send her a text message throughout the day was one of the hardest things he has ever had to do. He wanted to hear her voice and apologize again.Seb sighed and placed down his cutlery. He pushed the food away and buried his face in his hands. To top it all, Lilian and Jayda were not on good terms and he couldn't help but think it was his fault.Never had Sebastian felt such a heavy pain in his heart. He had no strength and inspiration to keep going or even go back to work-related matters. It has only been a little over 24 hours that everything happened but it felt like a thousand years already. He wondered how much he was goin
It was second to none that Jayda Wright was an exceptionally brilliant Lawyer. Opposing counsel prefers to settle with Jayda and whoever she was representing so it would be a win-win situation for all because they were aware Jayda hardly loses a case. She gives her all to every client she works for and that has actually been a plus to her successful career.Jayda mostly works for high-class clients, particularly, Close clients of the firm and not everyone could afford to pay for her services.So every two months, She takes up three pro bono cases, sometimes more than three, depending on how busy her schedule was. She does that to help the less privileged who wanted Justice and couldn't afford a lawyer. Jay has been doing that for four years now.That brings us to the courtroom. Jayda Wright was representing a 36-year-old single mother of four children to help her get the justice she deserved.Jayda heaved a sigh, gracefully rose to her feet, made her way to the front of the judge and g
