Caught In His Web Chapter 1 Senior year

Damn it !!!!

I looked at the clock,it was 7:10 AM,I quickly rushed to the bathroom to brush my teeth and take a bath,after a quick bath I hurried to wear my school uniform and go for a quick breakfast .

This wasn't how I planned my first day of the new session as an SS3 student,my siblings were already downstairs with my mum probably waiting for me,I went downstairs to greet my mum and have breakfast.

"Goodmorning mummy "I greeted my mum.

"Goodmorning sweetheart,how are you"She asked with a smile on her face.

"I'm fine,I am sorry I woke up late"I apologized.

"It is okay,try waking up early tomorrow,now eat your breakfast let's go"She replied.

So....my parents got divorced two years ago due to Domestic violence so now my family consists of four,my mum, Mason-My twin brother,Maya my younger sis and Michelle.....that's me. My mum is a nurse and ever since she divorced my dad,she took upon herself to take care of her kids,she is doing a good job although she is strict but I love her.

My mum quickly dropped us at school and yes !!We were damn late but since it was the first day of the term at school we were pardoned,I thanked God because the teachers of Dayspring International School on a normal day dealth with Seniors for coming late, after assembly we went to our various classes,I'm in art class while my brother is in science so the classes were separated.

On getting to my seat,I noticed Olivia my seatmate and bestfriend isn't in class although she doesn't resume first day of the term but she promised to come,I was kind of disappointed and not in the mood to talk to any of my noisy classmates (I'm not a quiet person, I'm a talkative but I know my limits),I rested my head on the desk since our CRS teacher didn't resume on the first day so it was free period.

"Madam Michy wake up"Olivia called my name while smiling.

Olivia has a caramel skin colour just like me,she isn't fat or skinny,she is in between,she is tall in height,she has long relaxed hair which I love alot,well my hair is natural and do not plan on leaving the naturalist geng and Oh she is a whole vibe!!

"Am not sleeping,Is now your mates are coming to school abi"I giggled.

"Don't mind me joore,you know first day of every term is not my thing"Olivia said.

"I know latecomer"I replied.

"You will cry o!,where is Mr Jacob?"She asked.

"I guess he is not in school"I replied.

"So that's why the class is noisy,so time for gist"She said.

"Which gist?"I asked.

"Tobi's gist na "She replied.

I was about to reply her when Mr Daniel walked into the class and we greeted him.

"Goodmorning students,this is a new term and session,I won't tolerate any non-chalant attitude"He ordered.

"Yes Sir"We replied while comporting ourselves.

Soon it was break time,I was damn hungry,I dragged Olivia to the cafeteria because I wasn't in for slow movement,we got there and the queue was already long,I was frustrated.

"All these D.I.S students doesn't even waste time before they get here"Olivia said feeling frustrated.

"Am so tired"I complained.

"Of what?"She asked.

"I don't have strength to talk,I waaaaaant fooood"I said putting on a long face.

"Foodie"she said jokingly

We were discussing different stuffs when it was cut short by

"Hey Princess"Tobi exclaimed.

Not again!!

One Night With The Wrong Brother

I thought I was waking up in the arms of Arthur, the man I loved. But as the morning light hit the Hamptons estate, the man buttoning his cuffs by the window turned around with eyes like chips of ice. It was Augustus Riddle, Arthur’s cruel younger brother, and I had just spent the night whispering confessions of love into the wrong man's ear. The night I thought was a beautiful beginning turned into a devastating nightmare. Instead of comfort, Gus treated me like a stain on his expensive carpet, scribbling a check for "services rendered" before shoving me into a dark service corridor to hide my existence from his brother. "How much does it cost to buy your silence?" He sneered, before leaving me barefoot in a torrential downpour while he drove away in a luxury Cadillac. Four years later, I am a struggling actress in Los Angeles, working double shifts as a barista just to keep the lights on. My life was finally stable until my roommate dragged me to a high-end dinner to meet her new "influential" boyfriend. The man sitting at the table, looking more arrogant and lethal than ever, was Augustus. He spent the entire night humiliating me, calling me a pathetic amateur and a social climber in front of my only friends. When I fled into the rain and collapsed on the sidewalk, skinning my knee until I bled, he watched from his car. He saw me clutching a plastic baggie containing the taped-together pieces of that four-year-old check—the only proof of my shame. He looked at me like roadkill, rolled up his window, and drove off into the dark. I couldn't understand why he was doing this. Why did he hate me enough to crush me, yet remember that I couldn't handle the smell of cigarette smoke? Why did he leave me bleeding in the street, only to send expensive medical supplies and coffee to my door the very next morning? "I'm moving out." I told my roommates, realizing that Gus Riddle didn't just want to destroy me; he wanted to haunt me. I grabbed my suitcase and walked out with eighty dollars to my name, finally ready to disappear into the city before he could burn the rest of my life to the ground.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.
