“Rhea listen to me!”Logan managed to get in the room they share even though his wife was trying to lock it from inside
“I prefer not to hear it… just leave me alone okay!” The yelled on top of her voice such that tears were falling down her face none stop, she was hurt once again, and it was all because of him. If only he knew how much it hurt whenever he gave time to another woman other than her. Every time he did the same thing giving lame excuses about everything little thing even when the doctor said she should bring him along for check-ups he was too busy to show up and his secretary was the center of it all
“Please listen to me… I was about to come but…”he tried to say desperately, but rhea cut him off not wanting to hear whatever his secretary did to keep him from coming not just that but the fact that he showed up at three in the morning as if it wasn’t a big deal
“Its confirmed I’ll always be just some woman carrying your child”she said sarcastically with sobs as she held her belly, Logan shook his hand trying to make her understand that whatever she was thinking was not true
“That’s not true… you mean everything to me”he whispered as he held her arm, but rhea shrugged him off and gave him a death glare that drilled holes if it could.
“At the end of the day this marriage will always be a compromise… no strings attached no feelings whatsoever… but if you want someone else at least respect our baby and do that after he comes to this world”she said calmly but Logan knew the anger behind her calendar rhea was angry and for the first time he was actually scared to hear such words from her. Yes, he came late, yes he didn’t stick to his promise, but she had to listen to him instead of jumping to conclusions
“Rhea please… you are acting stubborn… I know you are angry now… but don’t say that”it was hurting him hearing such words from her, he thought she was the only one who trusted him, she was understanding and never misjudged him ever but why was she insinuating such despicable things
“Don’t come near me… I’ll sleep in the guest room”she muttered and shrugged him off her and walked to the door and left immediately, it was better for her to stop dreaming and actually face reality, the man would never be hers, no matter how hard she tried to find a place in his heart. What hurt her the most was the fact that he kept giving her false hope, if he wasn’t planning to stay, then he should have stayed away from her instead of getting close to her only to leave her in the cold all by herself
Rhea got to the furthest room away from him, and she slammed the door shut and let out a loud cry, she was hurt nobody had ever managed to make her cry like he did. It was enough whatever she felt for him had grown strong, and now she was drowning in that love that dwelled in her heart. She wasn’t stubborn or anything, but she was feeling that way because she couldn’t control her feelings anymore, yes she was jealous because
“I’m sorry but… but I’ve fallen for you… hiccups… sobs”she mumbled as she buried her face in her palms and let her tears flow, she didn’t know how it happened but her feelings towards Logan over the past few weeks had changed drastically. From the way he treated her to the way he cares for her and always made sure she didn’t lack a thing, all this the man won’t her heart, and now she was madly in love with
“B… but you are not… you don’t love me, and you’ll never love me”she murmured helplessly and laid on the bed, it was too cold and lonely. She felt alone,, but she had to live like this because he didn’t care about her.
Time passed and Rhea had fallen asleep while Logan was still in the same bedroom which they shared, he wanted some badly to randomly after her and stop her from hurting herself, but he knew Rhea was stubborn and talking to her when she was angry was not the option, and hence he would let her be alone for a while, so she could calm down maybe the following morning they would talk things out
“You are my priority… there’s no one in my heart other than you Rhea”he murmured as he caressed her picture that he always kept in his wallet, he felt bad for what happened however he had no choice. Logan kissed the picture, gently closed his eyes and sleep consumed him.

**Two weeks later**
“What! how dare you tell me that!” Dimple yelled on top of her voice as soon as she got to the photo shoot studio but the man who hired her said she wasn’t doing the shoot for the Alvaro company
“I’m really sorry, Scarlett… but I tried to convince Mr. Emiliano, but he said he… has someone else in mind”the same manager from last time said to dimple who was fuming in anger, she was happy and excited to do the shoot, she even went as far as going through various beauty routines just to have a perfect skin and frequently went to the gym to get the perfect body, so she could nail it, but now they changed their minds not just that, but she bragged to all her other models friends that she was going to be doing her life-changing shoot with the man of her dreams,
“Who is that bitch trying to take my job, huh? I’m the most beautiful woman in this city not just here, but I’m an international model… no one could come close to what I do”she shouted again such that even the various photographers who were standing from afar arranging everything looked at her with weird expressions of disdain however dimple couldn’t care less because they were nothing in her eyes
“I’m sorry once again, but this is not in my hands…Mr. Alvaro clearly asked me to drop the contract with you and compensate you for all the time we have wasted for you”the manager said in the mist sincere way possible delivering the news his boss had commanded to him, but the lady didn’t seem happy, in fact the safest thing for him to do was leave as soon as possible before he got hurt
“I don’t want your money… I’m not leaving here because I’m the model and no ugly bitch would dare take my place!”she yelled again just as a medium height black long-haired man wearing loose jeans with a black shirt with a deep V-line and a cotton scarf around his neck walked approached them,
“And why this commotion in my studio?”the man spoke and dimple knew who it was just by his looks his face
“Jaxs!” Dimple exclaimed with delight, her anger vanished at the sight of the most famous fashion designer, the best photographer and the man who owned the largest fashion magazine in the entire world. He was the best, and she had always dreamed to work for him even just a little, and now he was standing in front of her
“Not jaxs darling but Jacques… or just call me Jac”the man with a pure French accent corrected dimple who felt a bit ashamed but was too excited to meet the man
“Welcome Jac, everything is ready look around and tell us if It’s what you requested for… the boss is counting on you”the manager ignored dimple and extended his hand to Jacques, and he took it and smiled
“My pleasure cutie pie… I love the set-up… Jac is sure to work with this … is she my model?”he said but looked at dimple from head to toe with a disgust facial expression both the manager and Dimple who was smiling from ear to ear prepared to answer but someone beat them to it
“That would be me Jac”A familiar melodious pleasant voice spoke which got everyone’s attention as they turned towards the entrance and there should was standing there with a completely changed look, Dimple felt her knees weaken at the sight of her enemy getting everyone’s attention in fact Jacques was grinning like a mad man seeing the most beautiful creature he had laid his eyes on.
