"Watch your tongue. Aren't you the doctor or are you a quack?" He retorted, glaring at me."What! A quack? I saved his life, mister, if you had forgotten!" I wanted to scream at him but I managed to control myself.Instead, I gave him a glare that seem to tell him what I was thinking! He had a look that matched mine perfectly as he shrugged with his reply. “I have no idea. You tell me. You're the doctor after all.”“He threw a tantrum all night and a half through this morning asking for his mom. Which I suspected was you.”I palmed my temple down to my face before sighing. “How is this possible?”He shrugged again. He looked like he would rather be anywhere else but with me at that moment.Hey! The feeling is mutual! After another ten minutes, I saw Vince coming back with Nurse Abby and he ran straight to me."Mummy, let's go home. I want to show you my latest invention…"" Vince!" Mr. Grumpy Pants called out angrily but when he saw his son about to tear up, he controlled his emotio
Jason PovIt's been two days and I haven't gotten any news of that damn doctor! I have been searching for her for two days because of Vince who woke up not long after she left. He had started his tantrums as soon as he noticed her absence the next day. After throwing tantrums, he became weak and resorted to depression.I was getting frustrated seeing him in such a depressed state, crying his lungs out.I need to find a solution to it once and for all. But what should I do? The answer lies in just one person.Doctor Violet Myers. I just can't let him continue to suffer yet I just can't accept a stranger to be the mother to my son. What if she plotted it?But then I remembered how she ran off as soon as she saw the portrait of my grandfather. Did she have a grudge against him? I was so frustrated that I was unable to do anything at the office. All I wanted was to turn back the hands of time if possible.There was a knock on my office door and it was pushed open by Jack Graves. He was
With a sly smirk, I threw a glance at the seething woman whose fist was clenched tightly. Did she think I was happy proposing this to her? I had to watch my son's condition worsen everyday without the presence of his illusional mother."What do you think you are doing?" I asked, glaring at her."Are you that heartless? Why would you want to destroy my brother's life for your selfish purposes?" She asked, tears flowing freely on her cheek."Heartless? I can say that about you too! I have to watch my son deteriorate because he thinks you are his mother! Do you think I want to marry you in the first place?" I mocked, in anger." That doesn't justify the fact that you are forcing me to get married to you! I will not! And I will get my brother out of prison with or without your help! I think I made a big mistake coming here in the first place," she refused, this time she was determined to leave.I bit hard on my lower lip to hold back my anger and frustration. I wondered why she was refu
Violet POVI can't believe I was doing this. What would my family think of me? That old man of the Clarksville family made us go through hell years ago. I was still younger but I can never forget the painful struggles my father went through neither could I forget the humiliation he fought so hard to overcome.He felt guilty for not being able to fend for his family. He was angry he couldn't do much about the situation. Luckily for our family, I got a scholarship to college and I worked very hard to be the best at what I do.I hoped that someday my family would look behind the suffering and laugh over it. Even as that hope kept overflowing in our minds, the hatred for the Clarksville family was rooted in us.I still can't believe that I just made the decision to get married to that same family. What would my family say? How would they react to it?I got out of the taxi, sighing deeply. Afraid of the next step I was going to take but still I was determined to do it for the sake of my bro
I turned to look at the cold looking man who was walking towards me. That wasn't right. He couldn't have planned it, right? But I received the call of my brother being arrested as soon as I ran out of the villa that day.I was certain he had something to do with it. Or else how can the murderer be found so soon? My hatred for him tripled and I hated myself for being tied to him. I didn't realize I was still staring until I heard his question."Even if you are attracted to my face, shouldn't you be discreet?" He said, a glimmer of pride on his face. What! Such arrogance!"And why would I be attracted to the face of someone like you?" I asked, scoffing."You can't stop drooling," he simply replied.Drooling? That's impossible! Can't he see I was and still angry? I wasn't drooling! And even if I was, then I was drooling with anger! "Your face holds no candle to my boyfriend!" I sneered, shocking myself. " Boyfriend?"As soon as he said the words, I could feel the temperature of the su
Violet POVI stared at the Barbie doll who was walking towards Jason to give him a kiss. How could a grown up dress like that? But damn! She was beautiful and I felt angry and at the same time confused as to why I was angry. He wasn't anyone to me except a cunning bastard! I watched how he allowed her to touch him but he dodged her kiss.Does that make him innocent? I am his wife for crying out loud! Even if it's just on the paper and I hated him but… argh! What was I thinking?"Is she your servant?" I heard her ask as her eyes roamed all over my body.Hey barbie! I know I wasn't beautiful but that doesn't mean she had to look down on me like that! I was fucking curvy too… with a wide ass and… well proportioned chest! But then, seriously? Was she asking if I was a servant?"Are you blind? A servant putting on a wedding gown and coming out of her master's car?" Daft! Foolish and… and a husband snatcher! How dare she call me a servant! Hell no, did I just call him my husband? " Oh
Did he… just belittled me?I wanted to turn around and leave this godforsaken place, damning all consequences but at same time, I felt afraid.I knew what the Clarksville family was capable of doing and I don't want to hurt my family anymore. It was just the little sacrifice I had to make to keep them safe.He wants me to stay here, right? Then fine, I will stay but the moment Vince regains his memory, I will leave.I just hope it doesn't take too long.With that thought in mind, I walked into the villa. I was ready to face my nightmares. I was ready to face the grandson of the man who caused so much harm to my family. ***I must have been a big fool to have allowed that guy to manipulate me. This isn't the way I planned my life. This isn't the way I think I would end up. Now I'm so caged. I couldn't even go out freely without being monitored."Violet, you are not caught out for this" I cried bitterly.I was a free person until he came into my life. I might be poor and in need of mon
Jason's POVI had come back to get some files I forgot. I had a quick meeting. Even though today is my wedding day, I still have to work.Only a few people are aware that I just got married. Since it is a contract, I don't need to announce it. Moreover that woman is not in any way my kind of woman. She might be a doctor but she's just too silly for my liking.When I walked in, she was already doing motherly duty and I am happy about that. But then looking at the food, it was shabbily cooked. I let it be because I don't want her to feel uncomfortable the first day of our living together as husband and wife. She already hates me so much but I don't care. It is all I needed from her that matters. Vince was my priority and I do not care about anyone's inconveniences.Vince had invited me to eat with him but she didn't want me to. This got me worried. Is she poisoning my son? It was as if a bot in my head had been removed.I argued with her but my smart son went to get me another fork. I
