RICHARD’S POV

I can’t believe Richard skipped mentioning to me that his dad never liked Heather. I wondered why his dad wouldn’t like her. She seemed pretty likeable, like a kitten, and who doesn’t like a kitten? From her attitude, I could tell she was probably the teacher’s pet in school.

If Richard’s dad hated her, that meant she did something or possessed a particular character he didn’t approve of. And Richard just might not be aware. Which is the more reason I need to find out. Perhaps she is not the likeable kitten she pretends to be. Maybe she is a lying snake, a sly fox who is deceiving Richard by appearing all pitiful and stuff.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying everything she has been through was a lie. I just feel there is something rather shady about her. She is wearing a mask and hiding her true identity. And people like that can be dangerous. People like Ben that strikes when one least expects. They should be avoided or better, dealt with. Given a taste of

    Chapter 131 BIANCA’S POV The rest of the evening was hectic as Gideon helped me pack, move and unpack my stuff in Richard’s room. Yeah, you heard me right. Richard’s room. We will be sharing a room from now on. Since Heather’s here now and staying overnight in my room, and there are only two rooms in the apartment, Richard suggested I move in with him and let her have mine. At first, I had mixed feelings towards it. My husband and I will be sharing a bed and will be closer to each other more than ever. I’m happy about that. I have always longed for us to share a room. It took him long enough to realize it. On the other hand, he made it seem like Heather was going to stay here for a long time. He had better have other plans because I didn’t want that especially not after she raised her voice at me and pushed I and Alex away. I hope Richard saw that. Funny how I thought she was a defenceless kitten. A gentle dove, not knowing she could be this violent. Like I said, one can’t hide t

    Chapter 132 BIANCA’S POV “What?...” He uttered, his features scrunching up with a mix of shock and confusion as he moved away from me like I was poison. “Yeah,” I repeated, stressing my point. “I know she had been through a lot and stuff and I sympathize with her, but she just can’t stay here. I don’t want that.” He scoffed in disbelief. “Are you being serious on this right now?... cos I don’t think you are.” “I am serious, Richard,” I insisted, not liking the way he was reacting to the matter. We started on the wrong foot. I had wanted to use a more gentle approach because that was the key to getting him to believe or agree to what I wanted, but I got provoked along the line and this happened. He got up from bed, more shocked and disturbed than he was before. “You witnessed everything. I told you everything. You heard her say it herself… she was raped by someone that used to be close to me and who she least expected, the entire school saw her nude video, her parents disowned he

    Chapter 133 RICHARD’S POV I opened the door to see a frightened Heather standing by. Her messy hair and teary almost swollen eyes showed she had been crying, and it made my brows pull in sharply, wondering why. Wasn’t she sleeping like a few minutes ago? She fixed her nightgown on her body, crossing her arms weakly over her stomach, while her other hand softly touched her exposed collarbone. as though she was feeling an invisible necklace there.“I can’t sleep, Richard. Please help me…” she muttered with a trembling voice. A tumble of confused thoughts and feelings assailed me as I stared at her intently, eager to know what the problem was. “Why?...” I asked, confused yet empathetic. “What happened? Don’t you like the room? Isn’t the bed comfortable enough for you…do you need more pillows or mattresses?” Her head was bowed low as she sobbed gently. Swallowing the sob that rose in her throat, she looked up at me and shook her head in agony, her lips quivering. She was so shaken an

    Chapter 134RICHARD’S POV“If you continue like this, you’ll have no more tears left to cry in happy times in future, and your eyes could fall out,” I said as I came closer to her and helped her up.She sniffled in a thick sob and wiped her eyes and face nervously with the back of her hand, trying to steady her erratic breath.“Is she angry?” She gulped and asked in concern.“No… not at all,” I blurted out, almost not knowing what to say as I waved it off, forcing a smile. “I was just explaining some things to her. She’s fine. There’s nothing to worry about.”I think I might have exaggerated a bit, but prayed she didn’t notice otherwise she would think I was lying and bear it in mind that B and I were probably fighting because of her.Though B was angry at first and didn’t want her to stay in the apartment, I was sure my last talk with her managed to calm her down and make her reconsider, so there was nothing to worry about.“Ok,” Heather mumbled and nodded slowly.“Now let’s get you

    Chapter 135RICHARD’S POV“No…no…” I grimaced in disapproval. “My father didn’t force me into any marriage and of course, I love B very much. What we share is special and nothing can change that.”Even though I initially agreed to marry her because of my father’s health and to prevent her from being arranged with Ben, I’ve moved beyond that. Our relationship evolved into something beautiful. Something magical. Something real.She changed me for good, something I thought would never happen after Heather’s disappearance. She helped me see the bigger picture, to know that all women weren’t the same, so for that, I had every reason to love her. To love B.To my surprise and confusion, Heather suddenly seemed uneasy. Her expression was like that of someone disturbed by something tiny in the bed, and she shifted and squirmed until she was sitting up straight against the headboard, facing me directly.“Are you okay?” I asked in concern, noticing this.She didn’t say anything; instead, she t

    Chapter 136HEATHER’S POVIf Richard thinks that I’m going to forget him. Forget everything we have built and shared over these past few years and move on, then he was dead wrong. He was mine and mine alone. I love him with all my heart, body and soul and won’t share him with anyone. I won’t let anyone take him from me. Not even that pathetic bitch that calls herself his wife.She thinks she has him all to herself now, but by the time I’m done mopping the floor with her stupid ass, she’ll be begging Richard to let her go. I can’t stand the sight of her, of him touching her, talking to her and saying all the sweet things he should be saying to me or even the sight of him staying in the same room with her.Each time I remember how she flaunted that wedding ring in my face, I resist the urge to grab a kitchen knife and chop off all her fingers, let’s see how she manages to live the rest of her pathetic life without them.

    CHAPTER 137HEATHER'S POVI knew that if there were any chances of me marrying Richard in future and immersing myself in all that attention, wealth and luxury that came with it, then I had to win his father over. I worked my butt off and did things I never thought I’ll do to please his father, but no matter what I did, his father never seemed to approve or acknowledge my efforts. He was like a thousand sheets of iron that couldn’t be penetrated no matter, such a strict and difficult person to please. I hated him. He was the reason all these happened in the first place. Minutes ago when Richard mentioned he was sick, I was happy to hear that. I just hoped he died as quickly as possible, and if there is anything I can do to quicken the death process, I will gladly do it without hesitation. Since his dad would never acknowledge my efforts, I decided to use another tactic. And that was when the video and disappearance idea crossed my mind. I talked to his best friend, Ben to help me bec

The time I was meant to be spending with Richard – planning our wedding which will be the grandest in the city or picking out our honeymoon location.Honestly, I didn’t get how an arranged marriage could have led to him falling in so much love with her within the space of just a month. Usually, people in that situation would be upset and trying to figure shit out or something like that since they were total strangers and didn’t consent to the marriage?I have just been in this apartment for a day, but the way they talk about each other and look at each other makes it seem like they have known each other for a long time before finally getting married.I had to play smart, and not make it too obvious that I hated her an

    Chapter 174 RICHARD’S POV Approaching B’s family house, I saw B stepping out, but the moment she saw me, she ran back inside. My heart hurt from seeing how she was avoiding me. “B please wait. Hear me out first. I have something important to tell you. The pregnancy was fake…I know everything now…” I said as I rushed out of the car and chased after her. But I didn’t think she heard me as she quickly slammed the door shut down on getting inside. I banged against the door, screaming for her. Apologizing. Pouring my heart out and letting her know how much I loved and missed her. I didn’t care if I was constituting a nuisance or being absurd, I just wanted her forgiveness. I wanted her back. But it all fell on deaf ears. No one opened the door for me. I wondered if my dad had come like he promised. Maybe he hadn’t yet. I wondered if her parents were around. Surely, they won’t approve of my behaviour and I didn’t even know how to explain the whole situation to their understa

    Chapter 173 RICHARD'S POV By the time I made it back to the apartment, it was almost dusk. Heather’s parents had the heart to forgive her for lying to them. Despite all she did, they still loved her as their one and only daughter and were willing to take her back. After they left, my father noticed how troubled and unhappy I was, and I couldn’t help but tell him everything that happened. I needed someone to talk to. Someone who could understand and advise me. And right then, my father was the only one I could turn to. He advised me to be patient, to give B more time and not act rashly to avoid losing her completely. He also promised to go see her parents intercede on my behalf and convinced me to head back to the apartment and rest because I really needed it. As I was approaching my apartment from the elevator, I noticed the door was left ajar. I didn’t put too much thought into it because it was probably Gideon. I had seen him earlier that morning before stepping out.

    Chapter 172 RICHARD’S POV I wasn’t sure where B could have gone, but the only place that came to my mind was her family house. I just hoped she hadn’t gone to any other place. It’ll be hard finding her if she did. No matter what, I had to get her back. I want her back. Not only is she the love of my life, but she’s also carrying my unborn child. She will be the mother of my children. Rushing into the room, I hurriedly pulled out the drawer of the nightstand, searching for my car keys. I couldn’t remember where last I kept it but I think it should be in the drawer because I usually left it there. Instead of finding my car keys, I found something else. My brows drew in curiously as I took out the paperwork. Going through the contents, terrible regrets assailed me as I shook my head in agony. B was pregnant. All these while, she has been carrying my child but kept it from me. All these while, I have been hurting and treating her badly not knowing my seed was growing inside her.

    CHAPTER 171 RICHARD’S POV The news of Heather’s pregnancy hit me like a shockwave. I was so shocked I struggled to accept it. How did it happen? How am I the one responsible for it? As far as I knew, Heather and I hadn’t gotten into any intimate act since she returned. There must be a mistake somewhere. B was so shattered she couldn’t even look at me. But I wished she could just listen to what I had to say before jumping to any conclusions. This was all a misunderstanding. I knew nothing about it. I know I have been cold and mean towards her lately, but that was only because of the way she’d been acting towards Heather. I believe with time she’ll stop seeing Heather as a threat and apologize for her actions. I cared for Heather and promised to be by her side to make up for all those years I failed to protect her from Ben. But that doesn’t mean I’ll go as far as sleeping with her. I made it clear to her that I loved B and only B now. What Heather and I shared was all in the

    CHAPTER 170BIANCA’S POVIt’s been almost a week now. That night I went out of the apartment, I wasn’t thinking straight. I was losing my mind. I had no one else to run to except Nina. She was the only one who could understand me right now and tell me what to do. At this point, I was considering a divorce. Divorce him and move on….He lied about loving you….He never loved you….He only agreed to this marriage because his father wanted him to… you were only a second option, a plan B.Nina advised me not to give up on him yet. She said if he truly loved me then he’ll come for me. She also said I should threaten him on leaving the apartment and if he persisted, then I’ll make him choose between me and Heather. That was a good idea. The only way I could bring an end to this once and for all. It was either her or me. And I know Richard will choose wisely because deep down, he still loved me. That bitch was only putting a blindfold over his eyes, but it’s only a matter of time before I ta

I sighed in relief. That would have ruined the whole plan.While Richard and I were in my room, I heard the entrance door squeak open and slam shut. That meant the bitch has gone out. That makes everything a lot better. I hope she never comes back. I hope she gets hit by a bus or truck or falls off a cliff and her body is never found. As it stands now, that will make things a lot better now.“Hey,” I smiled at Richard as I took a seat very close beside him. “What are you watching?”He looked at me with a smile before looking back at the TV.“I just turned on the TV and found the movie interesting,” he said. He grabbed the remote and pressed the information button to check the title and description. “It says ‘The Idea of You.’”“Ok,” I beamed a smi

I will feel a lot better, and be the happiest woman on the planet when he throws his garbage wife away from this penthouse apartment and our lives forever.“I’m sorry Hay,” he apologized, his voice very gentle and soothing to my hearing. “Please forgive B. She doesn’t know what she’s doing.”“She knows what she’s doing!” I blurted out, sobbing heavily. “She hates me and is out to destroy me. She's dangerous and the earlier you realize that, the better and safer it is for us. Who knows what she might do next and accuse me of?.... perhaps she could stab herself next and say that I did it. Maybe she could come back with bruises and cuts and broken bones and accuse me of hiring hitmen that did it to her…and you might just have to believe her…”I broke down in another outburst of tears, burying my face in my hands. I could tell Richard was extremely worried and cared for me a lot because he

    CHAPTER 167 BIANCA’S POV “Great,” I muttered sarcastically. Ben’s arrest was supposed to be good news. Perhaps the best news ever. He had hurt me and wanted to do very bad things to me, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right. If possible I needed to find a way to question him about Heather. I needed him to tell me everything he knew about her. If they planned her rape story together to deceive Richard. But how do I do that? The last thing I want is to meet up with him after what he did to me. And if Richard found out I met with his greatest enemy, he’d be mad at me and think I was somehow involved with him. Little did he know that bitch sitting close to him was his greatest enemy. “I’m glad he’s finally getting what he deserved,” Richard said, still sounding overjoyed. “Can you imagine he asked to see me?...” But then he stopped halfway, realizing the look on my face. “What happened to your face?” He peered closer, his eyes squinting and b
