Woke Up Married

Let's Strike - Part 3

Later that evening, Mr Wellington returned home looking very tired. Jane came downstairs and welcomed him with a kiss.

"How was your day at work?" Jane asked and Mr Wellington smiled.

"Why are you smiling, Jane asked holding Mr Wellington's bag in hand.

"Reminds me of old times. I am happy to have you back in my life," Mr Wellington said and the two went upstairs.

They both returned downstairs and had dinner together engaging in light conversation. Jane kept giggling at one thing or another Mr Wellington said, and later, they watched TV together before retiring to bed.

"Have you taken your medication today?" Jane asked and Mr Wellington smiled. "I knew you forgot. Let me get the water for you," she said and got down from the bed.

Mr Wellington opened the drawer, grabbed his bottle of medicine, took one tablet and tossed it into his mouth. Janes poured him a glass of water from the water jar and he accepted the glass of water from her hand. She put the glass back down and climbed into bed.

"Goodnight my love," Jane said with a smile.

"Good night my queen," Mr Wellington said and planted a kiss on her lips before pulling her into his arms.

"Yeah, you are right to address me as your queen because soon, you will be eating the crumbs off my table," she thought as a wild smile appeared on her face.

At Jason's apartment, the story was no different as Julia went to bed excited that she would be going back to work starting the next day.

At Mirenda's apartment, she lay in bed wrapped in Henry's arms but unable to sleep. Fiona occupies her thoughts. Fiona's behaviour looks odd to her but Henry dismisses it with the excuse that Fiona is still recovering from trauma resulting from heartbreak and betrayal. She tasked someone to follow Fiona but Fiona managed to displace the person. This didn't look innocent to her but she didn't want to bother Jason about it as she didn't know exactly what to say to him.

At Fiona's rented apartment down the lane, James sent the girl he had picked from the club home and went to the bedroom with Fiona to talk.

"Really?" Fiona snapped.

"Really what?" James said dropping himself onto the couch. "You sent my sugar away so make yourself available," he said.

"I thought you said you love me," Fiona said almost about to cry.

"I didn't say that. I like you is not the same as love. And again asking you to be my girl does not mean I love you. Also, remember I gave you a standard you needed to meet to be my girl. If you want to be a TV, fucking have multiple channels, if not I will go for more channels outside," James said.

"You have not changed. You are still the same douchebag I interviewed," Fiona hissed.

"Yet, you are crazy in love with me," James said and Fiona's eyes widened. "Let's say on our first meeting I tricked you," he said and stood to his feet advancing toward Fiona who was angry but had tears falling from her eyes.

"I drugged you and slept with you. You found out, I denied it. My mum humiliated you. You left town and came back with a fake pregnancy and we fucked each other multiple times. I framed you for drugs and sent you to prison. You got to know I am not a one-woman man," he said and cupped the side of her face whipping her tears with his thumb.

"Yet you came looking for me in prison and helped me escape prison. You willingly gave your body to me again. Because you love me. I can see it in your eyes," he added and more tears streamed down Fiona's face.

"I tell you the truth, if I were you, I wouldn't give my heart to me, but here you are all crazily in love with me. What does that tell you? You are psychologically incorrect. So why should I change and lose this undying love you have for me," he said and captured her lips in a kiss.

Fiona didn't fight back but gave in to him. James pulled back and smiled.

"You are horny. I can smell it," he said and inhaled her scent and Fiona closed her eyes when his lips touched her neck."You are lucky, I am horny too," he whispered and his hand went under her clothes as he nibble on her neck.

He took her clothes off her and pushed her onto the bed. He took off his clothes and climbed on top of her.

"Don't worry, I know you want me. I will take care of you, okay," he said and Fiona nodded.

He captured her lips in a kiss and his hand went under her. Fiona arches her body to his wanting more. She hates him and loves him at the same time. She wanted him and dreamed of a perfect family with him but there was nothing good about him. Her body crazily yearns for his touch and she becomes weak in his presence. She closed her eyes and shut her mind allowing the pleasure he was giving her to consume her.

Maria was also awake waiting patiently for the guy he had tasked to make the changes to the documents to finish. At Matilda's, she patiently waited for the changes to take effect so she could put Julia in her place. The Wellington's are more powerful than the Haward's. That is all she needs to get back her power.

Back at Mr Wellington's apartment, Jane got up and went to the bathroom. She opened the reservoir of the toilet and brought out a small black bag sealed inside a rubber bag. She opened it and brought out the small bag. She slowly unzipped it and picked up the syringe. There were three small bottles with some liquids inside them. She pulled an equal amount of the liquid from the bottles into the syringe. Once she was done, she returned to the bedroom and tapped Mr Wellington but he didn't move. She smiled and picked his tie and tied his arm with it. She tapped his hand until she found a vein. She injected the substance into him and went back into the bathroom. She checked her time and put everything back into the bag. She put the bag into her handbag and fetched her phone. She retrieved Maria's number and quickly typed.

It is done. How are things at your end? The media team are on standby to pick up the news.

After sending it. She stood in the bathroom staring at her phone screen when a reply came from Maria.

He is almost done. So you were able to speak with James to get someone from the media team on board?

Marian read and replied with a 'yes' and got another message from Maria.

Good, expect my message in two hours for the media team.

Maria read and smiled. She returned to the room and sat on the bed staring at Mr Wellington who appeared to be sleeping.

Two hours went by and Maria sent a message to Jane with a picture of a document and a letter signed by Mr Wellington.

Let the news go out first thing at 6 a.m. I will call Matilda to move and help.

Jane read and smiled. She dialled James's number after sending the details to his phone. She waited patiently for James to answer the call.

James was sleeping with Fiona in his arms when his phone began to ring. He picked it up and brought the phone to his ears pushing Fiona off him. She positioned herself and continued to sleep.

"Hello," James said in a low tone.

"Everything is done. Let the media have the news for 6 a.m. today," Jane said.

"Perfect. I can finally stop pretending I am working in that office," James said and the call ended.

He checked his phone, pushed the details sent to his phone by Jane to someone and lay back on the bed with a smile plastered on his face.

"By 6 a.m. we will be rich," James thought and turned to look at Fiona's face.

He smiled and kissed her lips before pulling her into his arms. She also hugged him and continued to sleep.
