Anna has been married to Patrick for 2years, without a child. Not like any of them had any health issues regarding their inability to conceive., But Patrick kept on saying he needed to establish his business first before they start making babies.
Anna didn't like this idea, but she just had to agree, since the business was all her idea. And it was her greatest happiness to see it thrive while her husband ran it since she had other online jobs on real estate and others, that fetched her a huge pay, and her parents were damn rich too. To that effect, I'm sure you can weigh how wealthy Anna and Patrick are.
Patrick has a side chick (another lover), who was his secretary at his company, whom he loved so dearly more than his wife. And this was the very reason he was postponing them having kids yet, because Amaka his lover had wanted a divorce, so they could get married happily. Patrick would stay out late at night, on dates with Amaka, and would attribute it to work. The civilised friction between him and his wife grew sore badly to the extent he would forget to tell her progress in his business, and when he wanted to plant another branch in a different state. And most times, Anna would get to know from congratulations outsiders would accord her, and here, her darling husband couldn't even talk to her about it.
This pained her so much, but she still kept her cool. Patrick was perturbed. His mind was never at rest, he was all out looking for ways to get Anna to sign the divorce papers. He didn't want to be too forward, he wanted to divorce her probably for cheating on him, (something she would never do) just something that wouldn't make the world see him as unfaithful or ungrateful when he eventually married to Amaka.

He had discussed the matter already, and his friend just advised him to get someone to woo this wife, and seduces. her
He had offered the man 2.5milliom, and he got back to work the next day. The plan was for Patrick to always form too busy for Anna, she would crave for r it, even more. And he would still act uncaring to her, and sometimes forget to extend his to others.
During this, Felix, the man Patrick has paid, had come to their house on ocasions with his friend around (Patrick).
And that was it. He would always come to watch his favourite TV channel, which turned out the same for Anna. Patrick soon decided on impromptu travelling, and though Anna was not in support of the idea, he still went ahead.
He didn't pick her calls, he was forming too busy, while Anna had Felix to spend time with, gisting and playing video games. One evening when he had invited her to his house, and they have had enough to drink, she tried kissing him, but he apologized and begged to take her home. That single gesture made their bond more.
One day at Anna's sitting room, they had talked about a lot concerning her marital issues and he went over to kiss her.. just then, Patrick came in thundering her to be a cheat, that he would leave the house for her.
He was more than happy, finally, he would be divorcing Anna and preparing to marry make.
He couldn't contain his joy, because it knew no bounds.
Felix spent the next days begging for being the cause of her divorce, still urging her to go ahead as Patrick didn't deserve her.
All this while, he was cajoled in believing Anna was the problem in the relationship, but he got to know Patrick was.
After hearing the financial story of Patrick from nothing to who he is today, courtesy of her dad and her idea and support too, Felix considered Patrick so ungrateful, as he didn't value the wife he had. If only he know how much other men would do anything to have someone like her., I bet he would come back to his senses.
Anna had soon seen Felix much more than a mere friend. He had been supportive to her both in business, emotionally and otherwise too. He was always there for her, and he was like the one true friend she never had all these years.
Felix too had a failed marriage once and divorced his cheating wife. He had known and loved his ex-wife for 12years,
But he has begun to love Anna deeply now, he just didn't know-how. The whole of him wanted her to himself completely. Or was it too much to ask?
They got back together, happier than ever. They started dating after the divorce process was over, and he had told her he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her, and she had agreed.
Patrick went to Amaka and was so happy to be getting married to her soon, but the lady was full of excuses. First, it was the idea of her elder sister getting married before her, and so he should wait a little more. And when Patrick spoke of starting a family with her, she declined to say her parents wouldn't hear of it. No marriage, no kids. So Patrick had no reason but to wait. He was blinded by her fake love, and soon he discovered she wasn't worth risking his first marriage for at all, but the bad thing he discovered so late, after she had bought over 50% of his company shares, and sold them.
He went bankrupt. And just then he thought of his ex-wife Anna. How liberal her dad was to grant him a loan to start his company, and how supportive she had been too from the beginning, till he was able to stand in his own..and it was this same work that made him meet amaka, and brought about the distance between his ex. wife and him. He was sorry and was ready to make amends.
He went to beg her to take him in, but Anna would do no such thing, she was happier with the woman she has become and the love she had found in Felix.
Just then, Patrick spilt the beans, saying he paid Felix 2.5million to get her, that it was a setup and Felix never loved her. She was so embittered and ordered them both out of her house.
Days later, she went over to Felix house and told him that no matter what happened, she knew his love for her was genuine, and he was her perfect match. They happily got married, while Patrick struggled to get back to his feet financially for the rest of his life.

Perfect actor in the act of love, you have been deceived again and again by that false illusion. In this world those people have the right to be happy who easily forget their past and know how to adopt the present. When the people closest to you start to change, maybe the regret is more than the pain ..? If the relationship is built on the will of two people - oh. At break time, one person makes the decision and the other is forced to accept it.
