Chereads / The Brilliant Wife / Chapter 24 - TWENTY FOUR

Chapter 24 - TWENTY FOUR

Alexis was put to sleep by Henry. When they were eating, Henry had called someone to decorate the room for him. The father and son had spent time knowing about each other until Alexis fell asleep.

Jenny was sitting at the edge of the bed in her nightgown. She was ready to tell Henry everything. As he entered and spotted her sitting at the edge of the bed, he smiled broadly. "I am sorry," was what he heard her say, "your life is far important to me."

He sat with her and held her hands, "what are you saying?"

"I am or I was a white magician. I hear thoughts of people around me. Those who are seeking to hurt me, " she revealed in tears, "I couldn't take it when it was revealed to me by my mother that someone wants you dead. At first, I thought it was a business man but later on I got to know it was Jerry."

"You mean, you read minds?" He asked to be sure.

"It was before not now," she told him, "I could not bear losing you. Your life is far important to me so I had to leave. What happened between you and his wife Juanita was all Jerry's plan. I knew nothing happened between you two but I had to leave to fight this fight very well. During this time, I founded a company," she paused and he looked at her.

"Which company?" His mind had already gone to the company named after his surname, Brandon Jr. Wears.

"Brandon Jr. Wears," she said, "I am the person behind that company." The revelation left him in shock. That company belonged to his wife's. He thought about the possibility before but shrugged it off because Jenny didn't study business. "I named it that when I discovered I was pregnant with our baby," she revealed and continued, "at that time I began placing my cards and began playing them..." She told him everything that happened. The incident where the light of the house went off and came back and others too. How she made Jerry lose his self control to make Juanita pregnant then lost half of his strength. Also how she met Judy and many more.

He was intrigued by the story and found out why she left. He was grateful he maintained self control and didn't fall for Patty or any other woman. He was happy his wife's sacrifice and efforts didn't go to waste.

"I will be going on an interview tomorrow to reveal myself to the public. Patty thinks she is bigger than me but I am going to give her a face slap. What is the essence of greed and power when your loved ones are not with you?" She paused and looked into Henry's eyes, "I love you, Henry Brandon and you will always be my husband and father to our baby Alexis and many more to come."

He hugged her and asked, "what about our divorce?"She laughed, "it's fake. It's not real. I can never divorce you for anything in the world." He held her tighter. That news excited him. The divorce was fake.
