(Lily’s Pov)I woke up to see that Jack already left the room and allowed me in it. that was unlike him, he never wanted anybody in his room unless he calls you to come by himself. I quickly wore my clothe and left his room before he comes back and asks me to.I didn’t want to seem like a thief so I went to his study to at least let him know that I was out of his room but he wasn’t there. I looked out outside through the balcony that was close to his study and saw Jane’s car parked.“she must have been back” I thought to myselfJack usually doesn’t have any business going downstairs unless he was hungry, he didn’t eat anything when he got home from work so he might be downstairs eating. I went straight to the dining to see him enjoying his meal.“hi” I greetedHe didn’t respond and kept on eating his food like he had been starved for decade.“okay, I just wanted to tell you that I was awake and I’m about leaving for my room” I explained“okay” he saidRight on the table was a green fi

(Jane’s Pov)Since Jack has refused me working in my parent’s company, I will make sure he regrets ever looking me in the face and saying that I’m not good enough. I will make him destroy his life by his own hands, he wouldn’t have any other choice but to run to me and i can't wait to be the only option he has.My thoughts never deceive me and they are not wrong either. If I'm going to be the President of WALKERS company then i should be able to prove that I'm capable of the position, and to do that, I'm going to start by turning everything in the WALKERS to the way i want it to be, their policies, their environment, the kind of people they partner with, everything about them should represent me and not Jack, not even my inconsiderate parents rotting in hell."How do i get more people to play on my play ground?" I asked myself and thought deeply on how to get people who would get everything done for me without having to soil my hands.It's perfect how people see Jack asreigned and rut

(Jane’s Pov)After I left the coffee shop, I was left with the options of either going home or calling Karen to know if she would be able to make it that day so that we can see but I already told her to come see me tomorrow.I was heading home when I remembered that I would be facing that ugly face of Lily’s, I already had enough of it, I reversed my car backwards as I dialed Karen’s number.“Hello Jane” Karen’s voice came sounding from the phone.“Can you still make it? for us to see?”“are you serious? I booked an appointment after you told me we would be seeing each other tomorrow, hold on let me see if I can cancel it” she explained.“okay, I’ll be waiting” I parked my car and turned off my engine while waiting to hear from Karen.As I waited for her to get back to me, I stole that time to go to my Chat App, after Jennifer’s accident the only chats that came into our group were that of those who prayed and wished Jennifer quick recovery.“ding ding” a notification popped up and it

(Lily’s Pov)I was lying down in the sitting resting since I had nowhere to go to. My day was boring, Jane who used to keep me company left since morning and I had no one else to talk to. She seems to have become busier lately. It was past noon and she wasn’t home yet. There was nothing fun I could do alone in the house except reading.I brought out the books my father bought for me when I was at the verge of going to the nun school. Sometimes I used to wonder what life as a nun would look like, they wouldn’t be any Jack in my life to cause me pains and I wouldn’t have to constantly be reminded that I was a human collateral.I was all alone, left in my thought when my phone began to buzzle, I wasn’t expecting anyone’s call, I had a very small cycle and that includes, Jane and Jack.I stood up to get my phone which was buzzling on top of the center table in the sitting room when I got shocked for the second time.“noo! I screamed as my phone almost fell from my hand.“I already forgave

(Lily's Pov)"Hello beautiful wife, we're back" Jane exclaimed after knocking on my door. I didn't want her to notice that I'd been crying, I held myself together and splashed water on my face before opening the door for her."I heard you say we, who else is with you?" I asked"I stopped by at the office to say hi to Jack but he decided to join me at home, what's with the water all over your face and why are your eyes swollen like someone who's been mourning?" Jane asked."Are my eyes swollen?" I inquired."If they were not then I wouldn't have asked," Jane said."That's probably because I've slept too much today and the water? Yeah! I was about bathing just before you knocked" I lied."Then you should hurry up, we're having dinner together," She said and left for her room.I broke down immediately after she left, I should've ended it all and joined my family, it hurts to be here all alone.After crying for a while in the washroom, I dipped myself in a bathtub and washed up. I looked
