HORNY BOSS Ch. 43
VERA'S POVWhen a warm liquid fell on my shoulder, I looked up at his face and saw that he was trying hard to blink his tears back. If there's anything I learnt from my father when I was younger, it would be that when a man sheds a tear because someone broke his heart, then the person has lost the best thing that would ever happen to her. Whatever made Jack feel this way, all I know is that he has manned it up for sometime now and I feel special that he told me exactly how he felt and didn't bother to hide a thing from me."It wasn't your fault, Jack. I told you before, right? You were sick and marriage is for better or worse! I know that if she was the one in your shoes, you would stay with her and help her become the person she was!" I rebuffed angrily. What am I even saying? Monica and Jack made the same vow that my parents made to themselves at the altar and that's why their marriage ended almost the same way.Didn't my mother and father promise to stay in sickness and in healt

JACKSON'S POV"Merry Christmas, Mom!" Tim joyously flew into Vera's arms immediately as we opened the door."Oh, sweetheart! I wish you the best, and nothing but the best! Come here, I'm going to bake, fry and cook just whatever you want. Mention anything at all, honey!" Vera pecked him."What about me, Tim? I can't believe you didn't notice me just now!" I complained."No, dad. I… I… was just overwhelmed… Okay, happy Christmas!" He stuttered and ran to hug me."It's okay, dear. I understand, and I love you. I will be upstairs," I wanted to excuse myself, but Vera caught my arm."We all are going into the kitchen to cook. You will fry anything that needs to be fried. Move it!" She smiled fauxly."What? You are joking, right?" I grumbled.She knows how much I hate frying! The last time I stayed with her in the kitchen, she made me cut the onions to punish me. I know what she would do this time when she mentioned frying.She dragged me to the kitchen and I sat down on a stool as she bro

WRITER'S POVVera lunged forward and gripped the collar of Monica's shirt. "What did I do to you to deserve that? Just tell me what I have done to deserve such ill treatment from you, Monica!" She yelled, hurling her around."You did many things wrong! Get your hands off of me because you know no damn thing about my life!" Monica jerked her hands off of her clothes.Jack caught her when she angrily moved forward to grab Monica again. She threw punches at his chest so he would leave her alone, but he held her in place."Why did you do that?" He asked, looking intently at Monica."Why did I do what? Is it wrong for me to give her flowers and cards?" Monica snapped at him."It's not just about today, Monica. What about the other times you dumped these red envelopes at her doorstep and even invaded her house to mess it up!?" He questioned harshly."Other times? I don't understand, have I ever given her something like this before?" Monica lifted the envelope and lily flowers confusedly to
HORNY BOSS Ch. 46
JACKSON'S POVI really wanted to believe that she's telling the truth, but I can't be deceived by her again. She looked confused the first time Vera said something about the red envelope and lily flower, but she had also said that she was the one and there's nothing anyone could do about it.Looking into her eyes, there was a hint of innocence in them. I looked away sharply and checked my wristwatch as if the time was of any importance to me."Don't take me for a fool, Monica. People change, and you changed when I was bedridden. I don't know you anymore." I said sadly, and went to sit down."Too bad, because you changed too. Just know that someone gave me that envelope on Christmas Eve and I was gonna trash it, but I decided to dump it on her since it's of no importance to me." She said, wiped her face, then turned and left the hospital.I looked down at my hands and thought of what I had done. Vera is suffering now because of me. Oh, God, please, don't let anything happen to her or
HORNY BOSS Ch. 47
JACKSON'S POVI thought about what Monica said and decided to confront her so she would explain who gave her the envelope since she said someone gifted her with it on Christmas Eve.I was pissed off by everything that happened that I didn't speak coolly to her. I blame myself for everything that happened. If I hadn't chosen to let Monica have the privilege of coming in and out of my house as she liked, Vera wouldn't be so mad at me now.As I drove into my compound, I remembered that I had left Tim alone since morning and I haven't heard from Mrs Briggs. What if he couldn't reach her or Max?I parked in front of the gate, jumped down and took long strides towards the front door. I didn't find anyone inside when I entered the living room.I was about calling Max when Mrs Briggs call came in. I picked up immediately and she told me that Tim was with her, but Monica had picked him up an hour ago."What?! Shit! Why didn't you call me before letting her take him?!" I yelled at her."I'm so
HORNY BOSS Ch. 48
JACKSON'S POVI could say that I barged into Hannah's house because I was knocking and I felt the door shift inside, I simply pushed it open wide and got inside before she came out to meet me.I saw the surprise in her eyes before it disappeared. I know that she would know Vera's whereabouts and that's why she flinched when she saw me."Jack…" she trailed off."I figured she would tell you. Where did she go?" I asked, managing a weary smile.I placed my hand on the counter in her kitchen, ignoring her obvious invitation to come into the living room and sit down. I leaned over the counter and shrugged when furrowed her brows inquisitively."New Orleans. I really wanted to tell you, but I gave her my word. Jack, I think Vera is confused and afraid. The best thing for you to do is give her some time to really discover what she wants and come back to get it," Hannah empathized."I didn't know that everything would get to this point. I don't even know if I can make that promise to you righ
HORNY BOSS Ch. 49
VERA'S POVI thanked my neighbor in New Orleans for finding a place for me on request. She offered a drink at her house, but I turned her down with the excuse of unpacking while I didn't even take any of my belongings.I lay down on my bed and looked around me in a lost gaze when she finally left me alone. This house holds nothing meaningful for me, just loneliness and emptiness. Did I make a mistake by coming here? I thought I had lost my child before, but this time, I felt pain in my bone marrow. I truly lost a baby this time and it's his fault! It's Jack's fault!!If he had talked to his ex-wife and made her leave, what happened shouldn't have happened and I would still have my baby waiting for the due date of delivery.It's disheartening to leave without saying goodbye to him and Tim, but I wouldn't have been able to leave if I had waited to say goodbye to them.The only thing I care about now is taking my child back from Prince Kenneth and going far away from everyone with my so
HORNY BOSS Ch. 50
JACKSON'S POVI know that it's a useless thing to do, but I went to the plantation to make an inquiry regarding Monica and Timothy.Monica never liked coming to the plantation, so nothing would have made her come there. I sat down on top of a fallen tree and watched the laborers do their job. I have asked everyone of them if they saw her or my son, but they all said the same thing that no one else apart from the people I am seeing came to the farm.I remembered coming here with Vera and Tim and how I had been thinking of bringing her here with two more sons in the future. The future has been cut short and I don't see any reason why I should keep living. Why is it always like this for me? Whenever I thought I was going to be happy, something creeps up my sleeve and bites my neck and I would find it hard to laugh again.Look at these people working in this hot sun and laughing loudly, cracking dirty jokes and playing, at the same time working hard to meet the deadline and get their f
