"Auntie!!" Sean squealed when he saw Alan's mom while Alan proceeded to rub his hands on his head because he wasn't expecting his Mom to come anytime soon."Awwwn Sean, you always look handsome each time I see you," She said excitedly dropping what she was carrying on the table and proceeded to rub his cheeks while Alan scoffed at his mother's attempt to be sweet."How come you are here, how did you get in?" Alan asked his Mom."Is that how you are supposed to greet your mother?" She fumed as she smacked his head."Ouch Mom that hurts, you have the same grip as that woman" He groaned."What woman?" His Mom asked, squinting her eyes at him."No woman, what brings you here?" Alan asked, diverting the question as he strolled to the table picking up the marriage certificate and putting it inside the cupboard at the other end of the living room."It seems you have been slacking from work. I called your office and your secretary said you didn't come to work since you would never call or vis

Ashely woke up that morning feeling excited and refreshed because her mom would start her treatment today. She hopped into the shower immediately because she had a lot to do today, she was moving into Alan's place today as well and that was stirring a lot of tension in her but she didn't want that to bother her at all. She got out of the shower and dressed up to go meet her mom first before she came back to pack her things.She got to the kitchen, made herself a cup of coffee and had the leftover pizza she bought when she got home yesterday. She proceeded to make her mom a light porridge because that was the only food the doctor advised her to give to her mom. After she was done she left the house and flagged down a taxi heading to the hospital.At the hospital "Good morning Mom" Ashely greeted smiling brightly at her."Good morning Ashely, you know you shouldn't be coming here every day you have your life ahead of you," Her mom said, reprimanding her."You are my mom, how can I leav

"Ohh my goodness, you scared me" Ashely said frowning at him."We have workers that are here to serve you,what are you doing?" He asked again."I am hungry and I decided to cook. I came from a home where I do things by myself, all this worker's thing is new to me" She complained returning to what she was doing."What would you like to eat so I can make them for you?" She asked calmly.Alan was taken aback by her question, he never had anyone close to him prepare meals for him except his Mom this made his heart almost melt at her kind gesture."Hmmm, I am not a food picker so whatever you cook is fine" He responded. "Okay" Ashely nodded while Alan stood there watching her, the scenario in front of him looked more like a real wife cooking for her husband. It twitched his heart that all this wasn't real and it hurts the most that he couldn't get himself to love any woman."You can go back to your work, I can manage just fine" She turned to him, as she was feeling uncomfortable having hi

"Am sorry, I…I didn't mean to intrude on your privacy" Ashely said stuttering."You should be sorry, that's none of your business, you have overstayed your welcome in my room, I want to sleep" Alan interjected, gesturing her out of his room.Ashely scurried out of his room feeling hurt and downcasted by his attitude."It's obvious he has an unpleasant past," Ashley thought as she walked into her room.While Alan on the other hand was struggling to sleep as he moved from one end of the bed to the other."Maybe I shouldn't have spoken to her in that manner," He thought as he sat up, he was never the type to feel any emotions towards any woman but he didn't understand why he was feeling sorry for the way he had spoken to her."You did the right thing, you shouldn't be sorry, don't be swayed, they are all cunning and evil," Another voice in his head said to him."Arg" Alan half screamed while falling back to his bed and struggling to sleep.The next morningBeep beep, the Alarm on the sid

" Yes, why do you both look surprised?" She asked scrutinizing them."No..nothing we didn't expect to have you sleep over" Alan stuttered."He never wants me around and he never calls me, what kind of a son is he?" She complained to Ashely while threatening to cry."Mom he is just surprised, he loves you he always speaks highly of you every time" Ashely tried convincing her."Yes Mom, how can you say that? I love you" Alan said thanking Ashely for saving him from his mom's banter."I will get the workers to prepare the guest room for you, babe please come with me," Alan said hurriedly dragging Ashely with him."You need to move into my room immediately" Alan half whispered as soon as they got to the hallway."Why? I love my room" Ashely asked, raising her brows at him."We are married and married couples should sleep in the same room, don't you get that we would blow the covers if we sleep separately" Alan explained getting pissed off."It slipped my mind, I will quickly move some of

"What the hell are you doing here?" Ashely yelled as she saw Alan while she tried so hard to cover her nakedness."I am sorry," Alan said hurriedly, rushing out of the bathroom.He completely forgot that Ashely was sharing the same room with him and she could have been in the bathroom.He was grateful for the glass door in his shower and the seam exuding from it even though he saw a glimpse of her goddess body, the image embedded in his memory."I don't understand why I am feeling nervous, it's not like I did anything," He thought.He was still envisioning what happened a while ago when the door opened revealing Ashley with a towel wrapped around her chest exposing a lot of her skin, he wondered how soft and flawless her skin was as he had the urge to touch it."You should have knocked or did you forget I am staying in your room" she mumbled. "I didn't know you were inside there," He said defensively.Ashely became cautious and embarrassed at the thought of Alan seeing her nakedness

"What makes you think I will sack someone just because you said I should?" The voice chuckled."I am not requesting, I am saying you should" Alan replied in a dangerously calm voice."Alan Anderson, this is my company and you can't tell me what to do. If you have a thing with someone in my company, sort it out with them, I was busy when you called. Have a good day" The voice said furiously and hung up the call."How dare he hang up on me, Malcolm!!" Alan fumed, clutching his phone tightly.While in Malcolm's office"I need the CCTV footage of the day of the last interview," Malcom said to the person over the phone."Who has Alan picked interest with?" He said, chuckling.After watching the CCTV footage of who Alan collided with on that day."The new employee, What has she done to Alan?" Malcom scoffed. He and Malcolm had a very unique relationship. They are between being friends and being enemies and unlike others Malcolm never succumbs to Alan's request."The place is too cold just

"Ohh…my goodness'" Ashely screamed as the lights in the living room turned on revealing a scared-faced Alan."I…I thought you were asleep" She stuttered, bowing her head slightly."That doesn't answer my question, I won't repeat myself. Where have you been?" Alan asked again, his jaw tightening in anger."Drea wanted to have dinner with me, it's been a long time since we hung out so I couldn't refuse," She said, wavering in fear."That's why you didn't deem it fit to put a call across to me, for goodness sake why do you have a cellphone if you can't make proper use of it?" He asked, looking furious."I…it slipped my mind, I am sorry I won't repeat it again." She said tears threatening to fall from her eyes."Listen very carefully to me, I ignored you this morning when you were running your mouth but right now you are going to quit that job whether you like it or not, as long as you are married to me for 2 years you belong to me, so you will live by my rules." Alan fumed, pointing his
