*Harry's P.O.V*

"Tanya?" I asked her. "Yes, Harry is me..." she murmured before walking over to sit but before she did that I spoke up. "Get out!" I said firmly. "Harry, no. Wait" she pleaded. "I said get out before I ask the security to come and drag you out" I stated.

"Harry. Hear me out... Please" she begged once again. I took a deep breath before nodding. "It better be quick because I don't have time" I informed her. Her sight disgusted me and all I wanted to do was to leave for what she did.

She sighed before speaking up. "Look, I lied to you" she said. "You lied about a lot of things, Tanya. That's not a big deal" I mocked her. Her expression changed into almost hurt before she looked back at me. "I didn't have a child" she said. "What?" I asked her in surprise. "Yeah... I lied to you about having a child" she said once again.

"Why?" I asked her in hurt. Why would she lie to me about that. "I did it for your best" she said making me flame in anger. "Tanya. Just get out" I said firmly once again. "Harry, I'm still talking to you" she said. "No!" I shouted back at her. "A lot of people close to me have said that" I started and held her by her arm to drag her out. "And guess what? Nobody fucking does that for my best!" I shouted. "They all leave me in broken pieces. There's no such thing as doing something for someone's best" my voice faded out as I broke down.

"Harry..." Tanya said leading me to the office chair and sat me down before sitting next to me with her hand on my shoulder with sympathy. I didn't stop her this time though. It's true... Jade left me for my best. Tanya says she did it for my best. Taylor did the same...

"Why?" Tanya spoke up. "Is it because of Jade?" She asked. I immediately looked up at her. "What do you know about Jade and I?" I asked her sternly. She has no right to know my personal life. "Niall told me everything. About your confessions... Marriage, child and your divorce..." She emphasized on the divorce. "We're not divorced!" I defended. "She signed the papers already, Harry... And so should you. She's happy with Alex and you should be happy with someone else. She's not the one for you" she said.

She's wrong. That cannot be. "Tanya, I'm telling you the hundredth time, please leave" I said getting up. "Alright, Harry" she said getting up as well. "But you need to know that I'll be there for you, whenever you need me. And I'm sure we'll meet again. You need to know about the child I lied to you about and why I did that" she said looking into my eyes. I flinched back when she placed her hand on my cheek and caressed it.

I held her wrist and placed it away from me and guided her out. "We'll see" was all I said and she left. What on earth is going on. Why did she come back into my life at the time I'm in the most vulnerable state. The time when I don't know who to trust and who to not. All I do know is that I need to protect my Jade. She's my only one.

"Jade. Let's just stop blaming ourselves."

The words played in my head. I told her everything will be alright. But it's the truth that nothing in this world is alright.

After the whole day of searching for a maid, we finally found one named Jia and decided to keep her. She seemed the normal one amongst the rest. Though she needs training, she seems like someone who would be loyal towards what she's directed to do.

"So you will be helping Jade with the cleaning, cooking, ironing and any other help she needs. Will that be alright, Jia?" Liam asked her as him, Louis, Zayn, Niall and I sat on a table with her, telling her the details. "Yes" she nodded.

"And then you need to find out more about this Alex dude. He's a bit abusive towards Jade so you need to make sure you keep low when he's around. Next, befriend Jade. Make sure she trusts you. Once she does, try to talk to her about her life. That should be around 2-4 months from now. Once that's done, befriend Alex. And befriend, I mean steal his attention towards you so he slowly backs away from Jade. That's when Harry comes in. He'll take Jade away from Alex's abusive actions and then you're going to leave him too. That's it" Liam said in detail.

"Will that be alright for you? Because you can't say no now that we told you everything" Louis spoke up. "It will be perfectly fine. As long as I get paid so I can support my sister, I'm fine with doing anything and keeping my mouth shut" Jia replied. She had a younger sister who was involved in drug abuse and needed money to recover.

"Perfect" I spoke up. "You'll be meeting Jade tomorrow then" I informed her. "You may leave, and your advance check is on the table next to the door"

"Thank you, Mr. Styles" she said and left. Mr. Styles... Something Jade said to me when I would call her Mrs. Styles. I sighed before rubbing my head.

The boys started to get up one by one as well, leaving me alone in one of the rooms of my silent house. We all had come here when we finalized on Jia. "Niall" I called before he could leave. "Yea?" He said. "Can you stay for a minute? I need to talk to you" I asked, he nodded before letting the rest leave and closed the door.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" He asked sitting down. "You know what's wrong, Niall" I told him. "Tanya? Ring a bell?" I mocked. He looked extremely guilty and you could see the shame on his face at this moment. "Harry, she just wanted to help"

"NO! NO ONE JUST WANTS TO HELP! THEY JUST USE ME AND LEAVE ME!" I bursted out in anger. "Harry, calm down, please" he said. I couldn't calm down. The person who kept me calm was gone. I'm a mess and I need her here. I ran my hands through my hair before calming down a bit.

"Niall... Why would you tell someone you knew I hated, my personal life?" I asked him bitterly. "Harry, you don't hate her" he defended. "Yes I do!" I replied immediately. "she left me in pieces when I needed her the most and Jade was the only one who helped me at that time with herself in broken pieces, seeing me cry over someone Jade wanted to be" I said.

"Harry, she knows about Alex" he sighed. "What?" I asked. My mind is going in circles. First she comes out of nowhere. Then Niall thinks I don't hate her, he tells her everything about Jade and I and now she knows about Alex?

"She has a past with him. And he was the one she told you she was going to have a child with" he said putting the pieces into the missing puzzle. "She came back because she heard about you and Jade online and also got to know that you got divorced and that she left to go to Alex" he continued. "She didn't know all of that in detail so she came to us" he directed towards the boys. "But no one would tell her because they didn't trust her. I knew she had information, so I decided to meet up with her and ask her and she told me about Alex" he said.

"She told me that we'll meet up again since she thinks I need to know about the child she lied to me about" I told him.

"You need to meet up with her and get the information you need. Use her for what you need" he said. I nodded and gave him a smile. "Sorry for earlier" I said directing towards the anger. "I understand. It's alright" he said and gave me a hug.

I need to be stronger and fix the mess. I need to make sure Jade forgives me and understands what we are meant to be. She needs me but I need her even more.
