“Dad… I'm completely fine…see” Jessy said as she tried to get up from bed. Unfortunately, Manuel didn't seem to want her to leave the damned bed. For two weeks, the man had done nothing but spoil her. It was rare to see her dad spend a week at home all day talking for two weeks.“Sweets you need to eat more…we don't want you to fall sick”Manuel forced as he shoved her down the bed and fed her more soup. Jessy sighed as she sat on crossed legs and took a few pillows from the sides and placed them on her lap. Her dad was back to normal, just like the old times. So caring and loving. She was happy to have a father like him. Despite his busy schedule, he never neglected her.“So how are you…dad, you don't look so well,” Jessy said after some time of silence between them. She had noticed the glimmer in his eyes had disappeared. He did things correctly, but not wholeheartedly. She understood the past events Valerie made him sad, especially when Valerie lost the baby. She was out of their li

“Someone looks tired…what happened?” Chris asked as he handed a glass of water to Sammy. The two were in the garden enjoying a good afternoon.“You don't understand… I thought all this was over, but…” it was frustrating for Sammy to handle something again. Just as Dave and she were about to make things right. Another problem popped up. Earlier, she was called by the court, not sure why, but there seemed to be an issue…she didn't understand a thing the judge was saying, but she was certain David and her didn't make any mistakes concerning taking care of the twins.“I think that woman waited to come back… isn't she shameless” Chris shot bitterly as she sat down and picked up her glass. Since yesterday, Sammy has been having bad vibes. Especially after an encounter with that woman. According to what Charlie told her. Teresa was David's first love. They dated back in high school, so how did she end up marrying David's older brother? It didn't make any sense at all.“You should go to work,

Chase left his car parked in the parking lot on the second underground floor of the building he decided to meet Jessy at, as much as he loved using the first-floor parking space it was filled to a brim, hence had no choice but to find a space on the second one. As much as he didn't want this to happen. He still felt obliged to get this over with.Starting with clearing some things between them. He hated lying and leading someone on, however in such a case it didn't matter because Jessy and he decided this based on a compromise. No strings attached to prevent them from separating and the marriage wasn't even that known, therefore with the positive thoughts in mind. He waited for the elevator to the second floor of the building, where there was a restaurant too.Upon leaving the elevator, he fixed his suit and was received by a waitress elegantly dressed in a dark blue uniform, mostly a blue skirt reaching above the knees and a matching coat with a white shirt inside and a dark blue bow

(Sammy)He was kidding me. After his humiliation and now he wanted me back on board. Looking at Adam, I was left in a daze. Did he take me for a fool, or was he just up to something?“I'm sorry, but I already have a proposal somewhere else” I refused in the most polite way possible…he seemed surprised that I said no to him. What did he think I would do? Run back to him and beg for my job back."Sammy, I know we started on the wrong foot, but I'm willing to rectify my mistakes' 'Adam was desperate as he said and extended his hand across the table and retrieved a few documents. He didn't leave my side but was still sitting there. I could smell his intoxicating perfume, numbing my senses. He still felt as wonderful as before.We used to go crazy whenever we heard the boss had arrived. The need to get a glimpse of him was imperative, but now I had different plans. Things changed. “Adam. I appreciate the offer…but I just…” I said and got up from the chair; however, I didn't even take a st

After a lot of thinking, and how Chase ignored her when he dropped her home the previous night. Jessy vowed to make the man pay with sweat. He dared to treat her like air, unfortunately, he was busy playing with fire. He forgot who she was and what she was capable of doing. “Sweetie…why would you want that?” Manuel asked while flipping pages of his morning newspaper. Jessy pleaded with puppy eyes, hoping her dad could accept her proposal. She had thought about this for a long time and wanted to do this. “Please Daddy… Just this once… I know I'm not so good with the business, but let me” she pleaded again. Yes, she was in her last year of finishing her program, but it wouldn't hurt to do something now. “Okay my princess… I'll let you take this…but make no mistakes”Manuel finally agreed and Jessy couldn't help but hug him. She squealed in happiness, kissing her father all over and when Manuel had had enough. He pushed her away, laughing at how childish she was. “Thank you Daddy… I'll
