Unraveled Destinies Chapter 44
JANE’S POVI slept on the couch with my kids. I woke up at 6 a.m. the next day. When my eyes opened and I looked at the clock, I jumped up, woke my kids, and started preparing them for school. They left when their nanny came. It was past 7 a.m. already. I cannot be late on my first day at work. I was so disorganized; I hadn't even figured out what to wear yet. I scattered my clothes, looking for the perfect outfit. When I couldn't decide, I picked up my phone to call Sarah. That was when I remembered what happened last night. I sat on my bed. I was sad, but time was not on my side, so I couldn't sulk. I picked up the outfit I wore to Bryan’s office on my first day at his firm. I packed the brushes Bryan gifted me and headed to work. I still haven't received any messages from Sarah. When my phone beeped, I almost crashed my car with the way I left my steering and rushed to my phone. I parked and saw that it was a message from Bryan.Hey girl! Have a lovely first

JANE’S POVMy painting brush fell when I turned and saw Jaxson’s girlfriend. She looked like she was about to beat me up; she was moving around and staring at the paintings on the wall.“How can I help you, ma'am? Do you want to buy a painting?“Quit acting like you do not know me, Jane; you know who I am so why the pretense?“I do not know your name, ma’am.“You would have known my name if you had asked my boyfriend, but I guess you were so carried away looking at him that you forgot that someone was sitting beside him.“The information wasn't necessary so I didn't want to ask.“I like smart women like you, Jane; you always have an answer to every question, but I am different; I do not talk much; I'm a woman of few words. Stay away from Jaxson and do not contact him again.“How dare you come to my workplace and threaten me? I suggest you use this energy to go tell your boyfriend Jaxson to stop stalking me. I was trying to control my voice so Mrs. Marilyn wouldn'

JANE'S POVI was silent for a few seconds; I couldn't say a word. I was still trying to process what I just heard. The mop stick I was holding fell out of my hand as I fixed my gaze on Jacob. Maybe I didn't hear him well or my ears were playing a fast one on me.“What did you say, Jacob?“Sarah is missing. Jane, I've searched everywhere for her but I cannot find her. I reported the case to the police but they said they could not take any action and that I had to wait 24 hours. I decided to track her car and I found it in the Bronx River Forest.“What!! Have you gone there to see?“I’m too scared; please accompany me, Jane. I cannot do this without your help. I need to find my wife. I picked up my bag and my phone and left the gallery. I entered Jacob’s car and we zoomed out. I didn't even care about the consequences of leaving unannounced on my first day at work because the well-being of my friend was of the utmost importance. I can always get another job but I

JANE'S POV I was yet to get a positive reply from the cops; they were still busy interrogating Jacob. I was watching him interact with the cops when my phone rang. It was a call from my dad, and I knew he was going to call me back as soon as he received the money I sent.“Hello dad.“Jane, you sent me twelve thousand dollars?"Yes, daddy, please book your doctor’s appointment for tomorrow. Do not hesitate to call me if you need anything.“How did you get that large amount of money, Jane?“Do not worry about that, Daddy; just focus on getting better. Can I talk to Mummy, please?"Hello, mummy, Please come back to New York so I can be closer to you and dad."Jane, I hope you are not doing anything I won’t be proud of. How did you get that amount of money?“I’m not doing anything illegal, mom; I'll tell you everything when you come back to New York. I got a new job at an art gallery in Schenectady, mum. I resumed today.“That is amazing, Jane. I am so proud of you,

JANE'S POV Are you sure Keana knows what she is saying?“I know my daughter too well, Bryan; even though she is five, she is very smart; she cannot lie about a thing like that.“Finish your food; let’s go then.“Finish my food? I lost my appetite already; let me inform Jacob. I highlighted the car but Bryan called my name and I looked into the car from the window.“Don't you think we should go confirm first before you tell him?“What Jacob did to Sarah was terrible but I've stayed with this man for hours and I can see a broken man; he is broken, Bryan. I’ll tell him so he can free himself from self-pity and torture because he thinks Sarah jumped into the water with Baby Daisy.“OK, if you say so. I walked to Jacob’s car; he was sleeping. I taped on the glass and when he woke up, he used his arm to shield the sun from coming into the car so he could see who was standing. His eyes were red and swollen. I could tell he was crying for a long time.“Sarah is in my house

JANE'S POV Everyone dropped their cutlery, and Jacob moved closer to Sarah."Babe, I'm sorry. Please do not divorce me; my world is empty without you. I regret my actions and I promise never to hurt you again. I would do anything you want.“For months, I've been trying to get you to look my way. You were carried away with whatever was keeping you occupied. I had surgery, Jacob, to give birth to your child, our child, and you were on vacation with my cousin. I was battling for my life on that hospital bed but you were busy screwing another woman in my matrimonial bedroom. You are so wicked and heartless, Jacob; I don't think I can ever forgive you for that.“Sarah, please don't leave me; I promise to be by your side. I'll do right by you. The most important people in this world to me right now are you and baby Daisy. Please give me one more chance. Jacob was on his knees. I felt pity for him but his offense was grievous. I couldn't beg on his behalf because Sarah wa

JANE’s POVCould my eyes be deceiving me? Do I need to start wearing glass lenses? I recognized the figure walking and looking around the gallery; he walked past me. Could it be that Ben didn't see me or is it that he couldn't remember me? I won't blame him if he doesn't recognize me. I was very skinny when I was still in high school. I faced my painting but this time I stopped vibing to the music. I struggled to maintain my posture.“Excuse me, please, where can I find the Sunrise painting? It is from the last season’s collection. Is it still available? "No, sir, it is not, but we have so many new paintings; you can look around; we have something similar to that. I was talking but somehow I was interrupted by him.“Do I know you from somewhere? “I don't think so, sir. I knew he was going to recognize me but I wasn't ready for any unnecessary pleasantries so I acted like I hadn't seen him before.“You look familiar; have we met before?“I don't think so, sir. D
Unraveled Destinies Chapter 51
JANE's POV I heard the door bang as if a force pushed it; it was so loud that I thought it was the force of the wind. When I saw Sarah walking angrily back to her seat, I knew there was something wrong.“Who was at the door? And why were you yelling like that? "It was Jacob but he left already. Sarah was focused on what she was watching; she was watching CNN news. And pretended like nothing happened.“He left? You should have let him in, at least.“Are you kidding me, Jane? And what will he be doing when he comes in?“To see baby Daisy, of course.“Don't say that, Jane; I can't let him touch my baby with the same hands he used to squeeze Annabel’s butt.“I can understand the fact that you do not want to see him but please do not push him away from baby Daisy.“I reconnected with Jojo on Facebook today. I knew Sarah was trying so hard to change the topic but the news she told me was exciting. We were all duos in high school.“Wow!! How is Jojo? It's been ages.
