Stanley was in his study, looking at a new proposal from a new client. While reading, he suddenly wondered what Maxine and Heather were doing. So, he walked toward Heather's room and saw his daughter soundly asleep. A smile glimpsed on his lips. Since Maxine wasn't there, he thought she might be in their bedroom. Upon approaching their room, he suddenly heard her loud, angry voice talking to someone on her phone.Stanley could only think of one person who could upset his wife,—Maureen. He rushed to enter and grabbed the phone from her in anger."Don't you dare do anything, Maureen. You try to hurt my wife; I won't hesitate to put you in jail." After Stanley placed the phone angrily, he embraced Maxine."I'm sorry, Hon. Whatever she said to you, ignore it. I won't let anything happen to you," he thoughtfully said as he brushed Maxine's hair."I'm not afraid of her, Hon. I just don't want her to come near Heather. She's too crazy," Maxine said and looked at Stanley.Stanley exhaled firs
Maxine was not afraid of what Maureen would do next, but she was frustrated because she still interfered with their lives. Unfortunately, because of what happened, Heather had to quit regular school and continue her studies at home. Heather’s mother, Maxine, was affected by what happened, so Grace, her teacher, had to go to their mansion to teach her some lessons. At first, the child was confused, but they didn’t have a hard time explaining things to her because she was clever."Baby, I’m sorry because you have to study at home," Maxine said. She felt sorry for her daughter."It's not your fault, Mommy," she replied. You could see the sadness in her eyes, too. "It's only temporary, baby. Promise you'll go back to school again," her mommy explained as she touched Heather's face. "It's okay, Mom. Dont' worry about it, Daddy said it wasn't good for you and baby." Maxine’s heart melted with what the child said. ‘It was a good thing that she did not get her mother’s attitude,’ she thoug
Maxine woke up in a place she was familiar with. Everything she could see was white, the ceiling, the wall, and even the bed. It was like a deja vu for her. It seemed that it had already happened. She looked around and hoped that she could see her handsome angel again, but this time he didn’t appear. She waited for Stanley to appear, but he didn’t. She wondered where she was and suddenly remembered she was with Stacey at the mall the day before. She felt dizzy and her world turned black. When she looked out the window, the sun has risen, so she panicked. She thought of how long she has been there lying and sleeping. “‘Where am I?” she voiced, and maybe the nurse who just came in heard her. "You’re in the hospital. Please calm down, Ma'am," the nurse said. "Hey, nurse! Is this a hospital? And what is your name?" Maxine asked again."I’m Nurse Catherine, Ma'am. My friend told me that you were brought here yesterday unconscious. It’s her off today, so she asked me to take care of you,"
Luckily Maxine was fine and safe now. It took him a lot of patience to keep his sanity intact despite all the chaos that happened. And now they were sleeping next to each other with her head resting on his chest. Stanley gazed lovingly at his wife and smiled contently. Using his thumb, he caressed the side of her face, mesmerizing by her eccentric beauty. He was one lucky bastard for having such a wonderful woman in this crazy world, he thought. He was taking his time gazing at her when suddenly memories from the incident came rushing like waterfalls. He loved her so much that it hurts. He would not let it happen; not under his watch again. With that in mind, Stanley pulled her closer to him before dropping a gentle kiss against her forehead. "Love you, honey," Maxine murmured in her sleep. "I love you more, baby." He cupped her chin and gave her a quick smooch. As he was about to deepen the kiss, a loud knock abruptly came. He groaned inwardly as his eyes shifted to the door. Hone
Velma was back with vengeance! The stickybeak was missing in action for a while until she decided to plot her great come back for real. Sure, she'd been absent in their lives for a certain time, but still, Stanley had always been under her watch. She was hardly informed of the rift in their marriage since time immemorial and had wicked innuendos about his failed relationship with Maureen which she believed was good riddance. Velma would never forget that once upon a time they were good friends with benefits that's why her love for him grew and matured as the years passed by. Yes, she was once an old flame, yet she reckoned the label no longer fit her anymore. She's confident she was more than that and could offer more special favors to him. So today marked the perfect moment to rekindle the fire between them. She was hopeful that they could push their lusty link to the next level; to own and keep him close forever. Oh, she'd been dying to meet Stanley in full flesh again! It had been
Surprised was an understatement, shocked it was. Maxine was not ready for his abrupt presence, she could only bite her inner cheek. She wondered how long he was watching them and the very thought brought chills down her spine. "Stanley. . . why are you here?" "I've been looking for you for a while. This town is too small not to find you." His stern gaze was on Leo. "Why are you doing this? I told you not to follow me, right?" Stanley gritted his teeth. "I'm worried sick, so I'm here to fetch you."There was a short pause; they just exchanged heavy glances with each other. But when Maxine was about to speak again her best bud abruptly butted in. "Fancy meeting you here, man. By the way, I'm Leo Gomez, your wife's friend." The guy held out his hand to him but Stanley didn't accept it. And instead he took Maxine's hand before pinning her beside him. "Stanley Robbins, I'm her husband. I wonder why Maxine never mentioned you to me," then he swiftly stared at his wife. "I see. I'm n
Maxine could no longer stay mad with her husband because he was thoughtful. She could not resist his handsome face. And also, Maxine loved him, so she believed in him. She thought she had so many rivals with her husband. In her mind, how many more women like Maureen and Velma would try to ruin their relationship? But one thing was for sure, Stanley loved her so much… only her.When they arrived home after Stanley picked up Maxine in her best friend’s place, Heater ran towards her and hugged her tightly. "Mommy!" she exclaimed. The child was excited to see her. "Baby, why are your eyes like that? They are red. What happened? Did you cry?” she worriedly asked while holding Heather's face. Maxine already knew her child cried, but she wanted to know the reason behind it. "Yes, Mommy, I cried. I thought you left us again,” she said, almost crying again. Maxine could not help but feel sorry about it. Heather was so fragile."Daddy is bad, Mommy! You will leave us because he had another c
Maxine woke up early to prepare food for her husband and to take care of Heather because she would have her lesson with Isabel later. Today, Stanley was going to work because he hadn't been in his office for a long time due to the conflict that had happened. After they ate breakfast, Stanley had already taken his bath, and now, Maxine was adjusting his necktie."Behave, Daddy, huh? No more girls, please," Maxine said while fixing his tie."I always behave, honey. Those women were the ones to approach me," he said arrogantly."oh, wow! That’s great, Stanley," Maxine sarcastically said while her hands were on her waist."It was just a joke, Honey. You know you're the only one I love," he said to calm his wife."Even if I will get fat?" she asked. “I look older, too, maybe because I'm pregnant,” she added."Honey, I still love you even if you're as fat as the whale," he replied to her first question. He was teasing his wife, too. He could see that she was slowly turning red because o
