The morning came so quick as Jaden tried rolling on the bed to see if Rita was with him there, to his utmost surprise he was unable to find anyone by his side. But, he was able to hear the sounds of water coming outside if the bathroom.Rita stepped out of the bathroom, her body covered by a towel, feeling a mix of embarra*sment and vulnerability. Jaden couldn't help but chuckle at her shyness, finding it endearing yet somewhat perplexing.As Rita hastily dressed herself, trying to regain some semblance of composure, she finally mustered the courage to ask the question that had been nagging at her. "Jaden, why did you... why did we... you know... why did you still sleep with me, especially now that we're divorced?"Jaden's expression softened as he met Rita's eyes. He took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding. "Rita, our physical connection has always been strong, and that doesn't simply disappear just because we're no longer married. It's not just about s*x for me. Being
Rita's heart skipped a beat when she saw Percy enter the mansion. She hadn't expected her to be among the guests at the party, and her presence only added to her anxiety. Jaden's cousin, whom she had never met before, seemed to share the same surprise as she glanced at Rita and then back at Percy.As the cousin approached them, a wave of unease washed over Rita. She knew she needed to handle the situation delicately and dispel any misconceptions about her intentions. Taking a deep breath, she plastered a smile on her face and greeted Jaden's cousin warmly."Hello there," Rita said, extending her hand. "I don't believe we've had the pleasure of meeting. I'm Rita, Jaden's... well, Jaden's wife."The cousin's eyes narrowed, suspicion evident in her gaze. She shook Rita's hand reluctantly, still sizing her up. "Wife, huh? That's interesting," she replied with a touch of skepticism.Rita felt a pang of discomfort, realizing that her true identity as Jaden's ex-wife was still hidden from Ja
As Jaden's grandmother witnessed his protective stance towards Percy, her face turned red with a mixture of anger and disappointment. She shook her head in disbelief at her grandson's actions and couldn't hold back her frustration any longer."Jaden!" she shouted, her voice echoing through the hall. "How dare you prioritize that girl over your own wife? Have you lost all sense of decency?"The guests' attention shifted from the commotion caused by Rita's fall to Jaden and his grandmother, their murmurs hushing as they absorbed the gravity of the situation. It became clear to everyone present that Rita was indeed Jaden's wife, and the realization weighed heavily on their conscience.Jaden's eyes widened, realization dawning upon him as he registered the disapproving stares from the guests. A pang of guilt shot through his heart, and he looked at Rita, who stood there, drenched and vulnerable, waiting for his support."I... I'm sorry, Grandma," Jaden stammered, his voice filled with rem
As Rita stood there, clad only in a towel, a wave of embarra*sment washed over her as Jaden entered the bathroom, bearing a set of pajamas. Her cheeks flushed with a deep shade of red, and she instinctively tightened the grip on her towel, suddenly aware of her vulnerable state.Jaden, his eyes locked onto Rita's blushing face, paused for a moment, taking in the sight before him. The tension in the room was palpable, but instead of averting his gaze, he felt a surge of affection and longing.Without uttering a word, Jaden gently placed the pajamas he had brought aside and closed the distance between them. His touch was soft and tender as he cupped Rita's face, his eyes filled with a mixture of desire and adoration. And in that moment, he kissed her with a gentleness that spoke volumes.The warmth of Jaden's lips against hers ignited a spark within Rita. It was a kiss that carried the weight of unspoken apologies, hopes for reconciliation, and a shared desire to heal their fractured bo
Rita's heart raced as Jaden unexpectedly appeared before her, his presence catching her off guard. She had been consumed by worry for her grandmother, that was the main reason she followed them to the hospital without them knowing. But now, faced with Jaden's presence, a mix of guilt and apprehension filled her."Jaden, I... I didn't expect to see you here," Rita stammered, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "Is Grandma alright?"Jaden's gaze softened as he looked at her, his earlier bitterness momentarily giving way to concern. "Grandma wants to see you," he said quietly, his voice filled with a mix of emotions. "She asked for you specifically."Rita's eyes widened with surprise and a glimmer of hope emerged within her. Without hesitation, she followed Jaden to the ward where Grandma lay, her frail form a stark contrast to the strength she had exhibited throughout her life."Grandma, I'm so sorry for everything," Rita whispered, her voice choked with emotion. "I didn't mean to hide f
Rita stood outside the apartment, a mix of excitement and nervousness coursing through her veins. She had finally found a place that felt right, a place where she could start anew and rebuild her life. As she reviewed the details with the real estate agent, a familiar voice caught her attention."Noah?" she called out, her eyes widening in surprise.Noah turned around, a wide grin spreading across his face as he recognized Rita. "Rita! What a coincidence!"Rita couldn't help but smile in return. There was something serendipitous about crossing paths with Noah once again. She felt a glimmer of hope, as if it was a sign that things were falling into place."It's so good to see you, Noah," she said, her voice filled with genuine warmth. "What are you doing here?"Noah chuckled, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. "I'm actually moving into this apartment building. I got a job offer at a nearby art gallery, and this place was just too perfect to pa*s up. What about you?"Rita took a deep b
Rita couldn't stand Jaden's drunken state so she slapped him as he tried to kiss her and have s*x with her.Rita's hand stung from the force of the slap she had delivered to Jaden's face. His eyes widened in shock, the drunken haze momentarily clearing as he registered her words. Anger and confusion flickered in his gaze as he struggled to comprehend the situation."You're not Percy?" Jaden slurred, his words slurred and his voice filled with disbelief. "What are you talking about?"Rita's voice trembled with a mix of anger and frustration. "I am not Percy, Jaden! We are divorced, and your actions are completely unacceptable. You have no right to touch me or hara*s me in any way. I will not tolerate it."Jaden's face twisted with a mix of anger and embarra*sment. His voice grew louder, fueled by the alcohol coursing through his veins. "You think you can just move on with someone else? With Noah? After everything we had?"Rita's eyes flashed with determination, her voice firm as she st
It was raining heavily on a Friday morning as Percy rudely opened Rita's door accusing her of luring her future husband Jaden to bed."How dare you Rita? What gave you the audacity to sleep with Jaden? I don't know why you can't let I and Jaden have peace in our relationship." Percy kept voicing out her pain as she told Rita to her face."Listen Percy I don't know what your insecurities are buy I can boastfully say that I had nothing to do with you Jaden and I won't watch you say those nasty things about me in my house. It's true that he came to my apartment but we didn't sleep together at all, I guess maybe if you've treated him right he wouldn't have showed up in my place yesterday." She replied Percy looking straight into her eyeballs."You know what Rita." as she pointed her hands into Rita face."What?" Rita slightly pulled Percy hands down and spoke directly to her face without a doubt in her voice."You're nothing but an a*sh*le and a Marriage breaker, you daughter of a bit*h."
