Chapter 119
She felt the whole world come crashing down on her. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard.
She felt tears gathered In her eyes. She pushed back the tears and went back to the dining room. She sat on the chair picking on her food when suddenly she saw Jeff and his mom join her.
“Are you alright?” Jeff asked and Jessica nodded in response.
She checked her phone and then stood up.
“I will be on my way now, I promised my mom I would come home in time,” she said as she stood up.
“Sure, I will see you to the door,” Jeff said and also stood up.
“It was nice meeting you Jessica, I cannot wait for you to become part of this family,” Rosa said and smiled. Jessica smiled at her in return before walking out of the house.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
She entered her car and ignited the engine. She zoomed off at once.
She got to a place and parked her car on the side of the road. She closed her eyes and let the tears that were in her eyes flow freely.
She’s never felt this hurt in her entire life. When she thought she had found love again, she didn’t know she was just being a fool.
Jeff had been using her this whole time just to get to Hannah and Brandon. Jeff knew her and her family before he approached her and he pretended to love her.
How could he do this to me? How could he hurt me this way?
He’s been using me this whole time and I let him, this is exactly why I do not trust people but he was just so…. She cried as different thoughts fled through her head, more tears slipping down her cheeks.

Meanwhile, the octuplets are seen in class sitting and discussing, David who was sitting close to them before, had moved to another seat.
Their teacher was not in class, so there was noise. Suddenly, four boys moved towards David and started bullying him.
“Leave me alone,” David said but they kept mocking him and laughing at him.
Jayden stood up from his seat and moved towards them.
“You heard him, Leave him alone!” Jayden said and the boys turned to him and laughed
“And who do you think you are to tell us what to do?” One of the boys said as they stood in front of Jayden.
The rest of the octuplets stood up and stood beside Jayden, staring at the boys.
They quickly withdrew and went back to their seats.
“Are you okay, David?” Allison asked
“Yeah, I’m okay, thank you for helping me,” David said and they all nodded and were about to go back to their respective seats when David called and asked them to wait.
“Wait” David muttered and they turned to him.
“I’m sorry for what I said to you guys yesterday. I know your mom didn’t kill mine. I’m sorry” David said and the octuplets smiled.
David had overheard the conversation between his Dad and grandma last night and he heard everything. The octuplet’s mom is innocent, his grandma lied to him.
“It’s okay, David. We were never angry, so you don’t have to apologize, right?” Jamie said and the others nodded in agreement.
David gave out a breath of relief. After what he said to them yesterday, he felt they were never going to talk to him again.
But he was surprised to see them stand up for him. From time to time the octuplets had always stood up for him. The thought of it made him smile.
“We are still friends right?” David asked
“Of course, we are friends, forever,” Jasper said smiling.
“You know what, we aren’t just friends anymore, we are family now,” Addison said
“Which means you are our brother,” Jamie said
“And we are here for you,” Jaxon said
“And we will always be here for you,” Audrey and Aubrey said at once and they all smiled. They looked so happy together, they were so glad they were friends again.

Meanwhile, Camilla is seen sitting at the dining table going through her phone when she sees Elizabeth climbing down the stairs dressed in her black dress while holding a puppy.
“Oh Hannah, you look so stupid. Toni Donavan is in town. I’m practically shaking.
Toni is having an impromptu little dinner party at the house she’s rented in Augusta. She invited Just a few old friends.
And can you believe it, little stinky poor Hannah, she invited me” Elizabeth said as she kept talking to her puppy and Camilla rolled her eyes.
Toni Donavan was an old family friend of the Colby who lives in Mexico but usually comes to Atlanta and when she does come, she makes sure she throws a little dinner party and invites old-time friends, so they could catch up.
“That’s a 3 hour drive from here, you should start going instead of speaking to a puppy like a mad woman,” Camilla said, her eyes still fixed on her phone.
“Since when do you care?” Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
“For the record, I do not care, I just hate seeing your wrinkled face here, if it were up to me, I would have thrown you out of this house a long time ago,” Camilla said and Elizabeth frowned.
How dare she call her face wrinkled!
Just as Elizabeth was about speaking she heard her phone ring. She stared at the caller’s ID then stared at Camilla and then smiled devilishly before walking out of the house.
Camilla then wondered what Elizabeth was planning again.
Just then Arianna heard her phone ring. It was a call from her private investigator, that she asked to keep an eye on Jessica.
“Hello, ma’am. I did what you asked me to do and I found out Jeff Mikealson is the boyfriend of Jessica ” the private investigator said and Arianna yelled at once.
“What???” She muttered in shock and quickly ended the call.
“Oh my God!! Jeff Mikealson, the ex-husband of Hannah is the fiancée who proposed to Jessica” Arianna thought as she felt her heart shattered into pieces.
She saw how in love Jessica was with him. She had just fallen in love with the wrong person.
Arianna brought out her phone and dialed Micheal’s number. Immediately, he answered the phone.
“I need you to come over, Jeff has touched the tail of a lion and needs to be taken care of” Arianna said and ended the call.
Just then the front door burst open revealing Brandon.
Arianna quickly stood up and rushed towards him.
“We have a problem, Brandon”
