Accidentally Married

Jessica pulled up Leslie’s number and the other woman gladly picked up because she had been unconsciously waiting for her call.

“Hello, lady Delgado” Leslie teased as she picked up the call.

“If you have to address me like that then I might be uncomfortable with you,” Jessica said leaving downstairs to her room upstairs.

“It’s a joke. Just a joke” Leslie responded clearly to the air. “What did I do to deserve such a beautiful call from you this morning? Do you want to go shopping some more?” she added.

“Yes,” Jessica said to the shock of Leslie.

Leslie had concluded that there was no way that Jessica was a woman if she hated shopping that much. She was a good sport while shopping but one could see that she was not enjoying herself as one would think.

“Seriously? Shopping? I would go get ready immediately and we could meet” Leslie said cutting off the phone before Jessica could clarify that it was a business building shopping.

Jessica pulled the phone away from her ears and then tried to call back but she was not picking up. Jessica then decided to freshen up and then pack up her clothes into her suitcase.

She went back down before she had her bath to remind Roselle to clean up the room for her before she gets back.

“They are already on it as I speak young lady” Roselle assured.

Jessica did not and would not want to spend another minute with the jerk who hurt her feelings and wanted to get out of it in the easiest way ever.

Jessica went back upstairs and arranged all her things into the suitcases she had. She had her bath and put on one of the dresses she got yesterday. If she was going to get power and become strong in truth then she must start now. There was no need for her to delay.

She put on the barest minimum of makeup because that was all she knew how to do and then paired it work one of her shoes and bag that came in a set. She looked at herself in the mirror multiple times.

She looked like a plain Jane and she wondered if it would be possible for her to be a part of the elite society and even become the leader they might be expecting her to be. She was after all married to the richest family in the city.

She put her suitcase beside the door so she could drag it out immediately after she came back. She walked out of the room to Dawson’s room.

“Hey Dawson,” she said as she pushed the door open after a gentle knock.

“Going somewhere?” Dawson asked. He looked at her clothes they were something different from her usual jeans and T-shirt.

“Somewhere fancy?” He added.

“Am I overdressed? I am supposed to meet the realtor concerning the restaurant building.” Jessica said looking over her dress.

“No, you are not overdressed. You are very beautiful in this dress” Dawson responded.

“Thank you, I just don’t want to stand out too much,” Jessica said.

“You are now a Delgado. You are made to stand out” Dawson said.

Was she really a Delgado? She was yet to change her name to Delgado and she was not sure if it would be a good thing to do considering that they would be getting divorced soon.

“I would keep that in mind from now on,” she said kissing his cheek as she walked to the door.

“Jessica” Dawson said stopping her as she was at the door.

“Pick the most expensive one”

Jessica picked Leslie up at home and told her about the reason she was going shopping.

“So you mean to tell me that the reason I got all excited was because we were going to pick up a building?” Leslie asked.

“Yes,” Jessica gets all excited.

“So dresses and shoes don’t excite you but the thought of owning a building for business does?” Leslie asked again.

“Yeah, excuse me,” Jessica said pulling out her ringing phone from the bag and picking up the call.

“Hello,” Jessica said. It was the realtor. “I am on my way already where should we meet?” she asked him.

“Let’s meet at Light Avenue,” James said.

“Light Avenue?” Jessica said shocked. She did not expect that her business might be located in one of the busiest and biggest business districts of their town.

“Yes ma’am,” James said. “Or would you prefer someplace else?” he asked.

“No it’s fine” Jessica answered quickly.

“Okay then I would be in the Celeste agency building,” he said.

“Okay, Light Avenue” Jessica responded before she cut off the call.

“Ivan, can you please take us to Light Avenue?” Jessica said.

“Okay, ma,” Ivan said as he drove. “Where exactly?” he asked.

“The Celeste agency building” Jessica replied to which the driver nodded and drove.

“Light Avenue woo,” Leslie said as she exclaimed. “I guess Mr. Delgado is going to spend some good money on you” she added.

Jessica did not believe her ears either. There were no empty lands in the Light Avenue and that meant they were going to buy a building. How big of a building was she going to get?

They were at the Celeste agency building and the car pulled up to the entrance. A young lanky-looking man ran up to the car as he saw Jessica come out of the building. He was able to recognize Jessica because of the rumors that went around her.

“Hello, Mrs. Delgado” the man replied taking a small bow.

“Just call me Jessica so I can be comfortable calling you James,” Jessica said honestly.

The man faltered but decided to just don’t when he saw her expression.

“Let’s go to the first building. I used to also be a restaurant too” the man said.

They entered the car and Leslie leaned in and whispered into the ears of her friend.

“Ensure you take the most expensive one,” Leslie said in a whisper.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Dawson said that exact same thing” Jessica replied in a chuckle.

“It’s Dawson’s money too so if he tells you to spend it then I think you should do so,” Leslie said.

“If I think of spending Xavier’s money then it makes me feel he deserves it but I do not want to do the same to Dawson,” Jessica said.

“Did you two fight?” Leslie asked taking her hand.

“How did you know?” Jessica asked in exclamation.

“Because when I fight with my husband I always want to spend his money,” Leslie said with a laugh.

“So it is normal?”
