My ‘Role Model’ Husband! The agony of a Mother, Wife, and Friend. Chapter 1 My 'Role Model' Husband! The agony of a Mother, Wife, and Friend.

Themba Khumalo is a handsome well-accomplished man; he is married to a beautiful woman called Fezile. Themba and Fezile were blessed by three beautiful children; their firstborn, Bongani and Babalwa who are twins plus the young one, Thando. Bongani and Babalwa just turned eighteen years old while Thando is eleven years.

The Khumalos are a very rich family, their house is a beautiful mansion on a hill and they lived in an expensive suburb. Their children went to the best private schools around their suburb. Themba and Fezile are the envy of the town, the perfect couple. They are well known in their church and the community at large; they donate so much to their church and helped all those who asked for help from them.

Fezile works as a Lawyer in one of the best Law Firms in the country, that's how she met Themba and they fell in love. Themba is a businessman. He was a lawyer by profession but after practicing for about ten years, he decided to start his own business. His business grew at a rapid speed and he opened up other branches in different provinces of the country.

Themba rarely spent time with his family; he is always away on business trips outside the country or at his other business branches in other provinces. Because of this; Themba compensated for his absence from his family with expensive gifts to his children and wife; his family had everything money can buy. Whatever his family asked for, he provided it for them.

Themba had tenders from government and from private sectors; his business was well known to many. He employed lots of people and also helped unemployed youths in his neighborhood by providing internships and placing them in his company as employees.

Themba's wife, Fezile, is doing well too, she is a prominent lawyer and she does some of her work pro bono; she is a human rights lawyer, who is always ready to fight for those who have been oppressed by others.

Themba and Fezile's children are high achievers in school just like their parents. Bongani aka Bongz is the head-boy in his school while Babalwa aka Babz leads the debating team; she is an eloquent and very knowledgeable young lady. Thando is still in Primary School and he plays soccer in his school's first team. When you visit Themba and Fezile's home, all you see are certificates, medals and awards won by their children.

Though the Khumalos have all that money can buy, they remained a humble family. Only those who know them can call them rich but a stranger won't call them that; they are down to earth and very good with people. Their children are well-behaved and loved by their peers.

Themba uses his free time with his family well; though it is rare for him to spend time with his family when he gets that chance, he will make it count.

Sometimes you will find him with his children riding bicycles on the streets or playing soccer in their compound. He will take his family out for dinners or for short vacations. His children and wife adore him.

Though Bongz was loved by his peers at school; things changed when one student joined the High School. His name is Mandla. Mandla is a talented bully, he joined the school in his final year of High School but he managed to make an impact in the school as a bully.

Many of his fellow students are scared of him. He tried so hard to bully Bongz but since Bongz is the head-boy, Mandla cannot get away with it, he ends up being punished by the principal for disrespecting the head-boy.

One day Mandla hid some drugs inside Bongz's bag, he then alerted the teachers that Bongz is using drugs at school. It was chaotic at the school, the police were called in and Bongz was suspended from school; even his post as a head-boy was taken away from him.

Bongz pleaded his innocence but with no luck, he was suspended for two weeks. He told his mother the entire story and the bad things Mandla has been doing to him.

Fezile tried to reason with teachers but it was like talking to a wall. This incident hurt Bongz's family a lot; especially his twin sister, Babz. Babz couldn't believe that her well-behaved brother was suspended because of the newbie, Mandla.

Babz decided to go underground; with the help of her friends, they managed to prove Bongz's innocence. One of the students took a video of Mandla hiding drugs into Bongz's bag; this helped in proving Bongz's innocence.

Bongz's suspension was stopped and he was reinstated as the head-boy. Mandla was suspended from the school for a full month and also the police got on his case, they wanted to know where he got the drugs from. This angered Mandla's family.

Mandla stays with his mother, Amanda, and his fifteen-year-old sister, Akhona. Mandla's mother was a stay-at-home mother. She is the only surviving child of her rich father. She is living large; this is because she is getting monetary support from the father of her children and from her own father who spoils her. She just wakes up in the morning, beautifies herself, and goes for breakfasts, lunches, massages, shopping sprees, etc with her friends.

Amanda has never been married but she has a man who fathered her children. Amanda is living alone with her two children in a big house without the father of her children; no one knows who he is because she has never introduced him to anyone, not even her loving father.

Amanda and her children used to stay in a different province where her father is, but she moved to this side where the Khumalos are just a few months back. Her father was getting on her nerve by asking who the father of her children was and also trying to discipline her children. She didn't want anyone to interfere with her children.

Many people think that she moved here after her divorce but all that are rumors, no one knows her truth. Her children too don't talk about their father that much; all they say is that he abandoned them and went abroad.

For two years, I was the invisible force behind tech billionaire Kieran Douglas, convinced that our "private" romance was his way of protecting us from the tabloid spotlight. I managed his mergers, warmed his bed, and waited for a future that didn't exist. The illusion shattered at 6:00 AM when a Page Six alert debuted Kieran’s "real" romance with socialite Aspen Schneider. Before I could even process the betrayal, Kieran sent me a cold, professional text: "Order flowers for Aspen. Pink peonies. Her favorite." When I tried to walk away, my own mother called me a disgrace and threatened to lock my inheritance forever unless I married a sixty-year-old businessman to save her failing estate. At a high-society gala that same night, Aspen intentionally crushed my burned hand in front of the cameras, while Kieran stood by and dismissed me as a "mediocre assistant" who had overstayed her welcome. I stood in the cold New York rain, drenched in champagne and humiliation, realizing that every sacrifice I made for Kieran was a joke. I was a ghost in a penthouse that was never mine, discarded the moment his "soulmate" returned. To the world, I was just a placeholder whose time had run out. But Kieran forgot one thing: my father’s multi-million dollar trust fund unlocks the moment I legally marry. I didn't need love; I needed a signature and a shield. I walked into a discreet law firm and signed a marriage contract with a man I believed was the city’s most notorious, scandal-ridden playboy. I thought I was marrying a degenerate "beard" to buy my freedom and secure my revenge. I didn't realize the man who signed that paper wasn't a playboy at all, but Gaston Collins—the most powerful and dangerous man on Wall Street—and he had no intention of letting our fake marriage stay fake.

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
