Jane's pov

I never should have let my sisters talk me into this,I should have ignored her  call,when I saw my phone ringing after my cooking session online.

Earlier in the day

I was cleaning up the utensils I used for the show, when I heard my phone ringing,so I removed the gloves I was wearing and rushed out the kitchen to get it.

I picked up the call,seeing it was Josephine and she wouldn't stop calling since I haven't called since we got back and I moving out and disagreeing with their tactics,when they finally confessed.Long story short, they're not selling the house or traveling, it's was just a lie they all cooked up to get me to agree to this marriage.

Sighing

Hello!I snapped.

Good morning sister dearest!She crooned.

Ugh, Josephine it's too early in the morning for this,I muttered.It wasn't that early but it is always early any time if the day to deal with Josephine Moore Davidson.

Jany!Are you still angry,we said we're sorry,oh and Jacky is here too.

Great, Good morning Jacky,I greeted blandly, and you reminding me won't help your case Josh.

Good morning Jane,how was your night?Jacky replied, courteous as usual.

Fine,what do you guys want?

Details girl! Josephine squealed.

Details?I questioned.

Yes jany,Jacky deadpanned.

About?

You know, your honeymoon of course anddddd you know,Is he good in bed? Is he not good in bed? Josephine gushed.

Really? Jacky, how did she get you to agree to this and how come you guys are together at this time of the day,I questioned bitterly.

Oh,you know we were both less busy, since Jacky is on leave from work and my last fashion show was a success so I'm taking a break for now.

I see,well for your information the honeymoon was awful, since I got into a fight with one of Ben's old college mate and...

You?In a fight?What happened to the cool and calm Ice princess? Josephine teased and Jacky grunting probably agreeing with her.

She was touching my husband all wrongly and that girl needed to learn a lesson or two on etiquette!

Hmmm, it's "my husband" now,Mrs Franklin,is that jealousy I hear? Josephine squealed.

Jea-Jealousy?Hell no!That girl was disrespectful and wasn't giving my- Ben any personal space!

You were jealous Jane,admit it.Jacky commented.

They were really starting to piss me off.

Whatever Jacky, jealous or not Ben probably doesn't like me in sexual way,since we haven't kissed or done anything remotely sexual.I replied bitterly.

Oh dear!They both called out.

What makes you think he doesn't like you? Jacky always the inquisitor.

I don't know Jacky you tell me,if you were to be a man like Ben Franklin would you like a fat ass like me?I snapped.

Come on Jane,there as to be a reason why he hasn't tried to you know get up close and personal, Josephine reasoned.

Sighing

Well thinking about the honeymoon,I really can't blame him... even I know I'm weird.

I don't know sis,I cringed realising how defeated I sounded.

Oh Jane,I'm so sorry dear, Josephine whispered softly.

Clearing my throat,you don't have to be it is what it is,I replied.

Don't do that Jane,You are beautiful,smart,curvy and underneath that cold exterior I know you are well....a good person.I've seen you take what you want,when you want it Jane,so just go get your man Jane, believe it or not you're beautiful,any man would be lucky to have you. Jacky  always the voice of reason.

Thanks,I deadpanned.

She's right Jane,you can't make it work until you try.

Hmmm,ok guys,Thanks for the ...talk.

Okay girlio, catch ya later, Josephine squealed back to her usual self.

Bye Jane.

Bye,I remained sitter for what felt like hours thinking about Jacky's words and I decided to go all out and take her words to heart.It can't hurt to try can it?Well actually it can,if my experience with Gideon taught me anything...

...But this is my new life,Gideon is in my past.I walked freshen up and went shopping for a new body con gown and some other good looking clothes and a tight corset, especially the corset,I needed it to pull off my new gown and I got new make up kit and cosmetic.I went back home and laid down the accessories I needed to blow my husband's mind away.I was feeling  a little nostalgic since the last time,I went all the way to impress a guy was when I was with Gideon...

Sighing

I got dressed and carefully applied my make up and headed out to my husband's hubby but not before packing a lunch box,since that would be my excuse for coming.I got into my car and in put the address into the navigator.

I got there after going around in circles for a while,it looked straight forward when I googled searched it.

I walked into the building my head held high and my heels clicking on the polished floor leading to people turning to look at me.I griped the lunch pack I was holding and walked towards the receptionist desk.

Good afternoon ma'am,she smiled cheekily.

Good afternoon,I'm here to see Mr Franklin please.

Do you have an appointment with him?

No ,but I'm sure he wouldn't seeing his wife,I replied.

Wife?She scrunched up her face looking confused for a while.

Oh,Mrs Franklin!I'm so sorry ma'am you look different from the wedding.

Smiling tightly, It's no problem... looking at her name tag,Miss Chole.Is my husband in?

He is not available ma'am but am sure is p.a would know when he will be back, ma'am.

There goes my good mood,Ok chole, what floor please?

The fifth one ma.

Ok chole, thank you,I smiled.

I walked into the elevator, nodding a greeting to the two men who stepped in the elevator with me.

Hmmm, Looking good Miss...?One of the men commented.

Mrs Franklin,I replied and thank you.

A relative of the boss?He inquired.

His wife actually.

Oh,Oh! Nice meeting you ma'am.You look different from your wedding pictures.

And you too Mr...

Baker ma'am.

Ok then,I got off the elevator, when I got to my destination and walking in to see slutty Maddie at her desk.

She got up from her desk, smiling before recognizing me and plopping down and openly sneering at me.

Ha,now she shows her true colour,I thought.
