Chapter 117

BIANCA’S POV

“What’s in the lunchbox? Can I take it to the kitchen?” I asked Mr. Sam, coming back to reality from my busy thoughts that overwhelmed me.

He shrugged to show he had no idea. Probably he wasn’t there when Jessica packed it.

“Do you mind if I have a look?”

Of course, he will mind. I didn’t even know why I had to ask.

“Sure.”

I set down the tray with the coffee pot and Alex’s apple juice which I just realized I hadn’t given him yet on the table. I took the lunchbox and opened it. Inside was a small container filled with sliced fruits and veggies—apples, bananas, berries, carrots, and cucumbers. There was also a mini peanut butter sandwich and a well-known brand of kids’ fruit juice.

“Mmmh,” I slurped my lips, savouring the goodness as if the lunch was for me. Eight years old me would have probably finished the juice, and sandwich, picked the bananas and berries and then left the apples, carrots and cucumbers for Alex. “Lots of healthy stuff. Jessica sure does

    Chapter 118BIANCA’S POVI couldn’t deny the fact that I was a little scared for them especially Richard. His task seemed harder. Mr. Sam with his contacts and the connections he had could easily find evidence of Ben’s drug smuggling business. But Richard’s task might involve him sneaking into where Ben lived and worse, coming in contact with him, and whenever the two of them saw each other, it always ended in confrontation or worse. I didn’t want that happening at all. He said he feared for my safety, but now I feared for his more. Oh goodness, please protect him. Protect them.“I have my ways, little B,” Mr. Sam answered smugly. Adjusting himself, he stood up in preparation to leave. “A true magician never reveals his secret.”“It’s not going to be simple, but we’ll give it our all,” Richard said as he lifted Alex from his lap and stood up too. “I just hope that bastard hasn’t gotten rid of the phone he used to record the video or deleted the anonymous social media account he use

    Chapter 119BIANCA’S POVMr. Sam didn’t even spare me a glance as he left. I sighed in fluster knowing he was offended by the way Richard talked to him, and if I didn’t fix it, he probably wouldn’t be helping out again in this.He forgot to kiss Alex goodbye. I wanted to call him back for that, but seeing the way he left, I just had to let it go.The moment Richard noticed he was gone, he came up to me. Alex was still pulling his hair. His efforts to stop him from pulling it were futile and there was no juice nearby to distract him this time. Alex was so engrossed with the hair that he didn’t even notice his father was gone. I just hope he doesn’t end up crying like most babies do when he realizes it. We’ll just have to keep up with the distractions until Mr. Sam gets back.“I like his son. I really do, but are you sure we can trust him?” Richard asked, sounding a bit annoyed, probably still brooding over what happened.“Yeah,” I kept a straight face as I replied to him, closing the

    Chapter 120BIANCA’S POVI didn’t get how she got up and showered so quickly and most of all, put on my clothes. She was wearing my favourite oversized shirt and denim bum shorts that revealed her long slender thighs. Why will she wear my clothes without asking for me first? Is that how she behaves?She approached us like a meek lamb, smiling innocently. She looked a whole lot better like nothing happened, and that made me consider that fainting was probably an act to fall right into Richard’s body.“I heard shouting,” she said, her large emerald eyes flicking like a light switch. “Hope nothing’s wrong?” She asked, sounding concerned.Richard and I shook our heads in unison, and I said, “Not at all, just a minor misunderstanding that couples have, but it’s all good….” pressing my lips tightly together as I observed her.“How…how are you feeling now?” Richard asked in a way that seemed too careful, adjusting Alex on his body who made sleepy sounds.When I glanced at Richard.

I let down my hand, playing with the ring in my finger and slightly angled my head as I observed her for a bit.What was she expecting? For him to wait for her till eternity, not knowing if she was alive or dead. No, baby girl. I’m sorry, but that’s not how it’s done.I folded my lips together, playfully moving them from side to side as I pitied her. Judging from her demeanour, she must have lived a fairytale life until that video occured.This must be really hard for her to take in, and it wasn’t even her fault. But what’s done has been done. The sooner she learns to live with it the better for her.Her expression was like that of a puppy rejected by her owner. She was so meek I doubt she could even hurt a fly. At least she wouldn’t be a problem to me for the little time she will b

He dropped his fork and it clanged noisily on the plate. His brows pinched sharply as he stared at her in extreme shock and disbelief. It was obvious he didn’t know about that part of the story. “You met up with Ben?... Why the fuck will you meet up with him?” Heather leaned back in her seat and breathed out heavily. She looked away from him, terrible regrets assailing her doll-like features. She did say she would answer every question thrown at her, but at that moment, she looked like she wanted to pass that particular question. “Answer me, Heather!” Richard leaned forward, slamming a balled fist on the table, causing the cutleries and utensils to rattle. “Were you cheating on me with Ben?” I he

    Chapter 123BIANCA’S POV“I don’t understand,” I grimaced in confusion. “Why would your friend kick you out?”If she ran to her friend after such an incident, it shows she trusted her and they have known each other for a long time. I didn’t see any reason to kick her out unless she did something to deserve it.She glanced at me, blinking severally to hold back her tears. She folded her lips back and kept a sad face as she was about to explain what happened to me. I leaned forward, eager to listen attentively, my hands resting on the table.“Everything was going well until she began treating me like I was a problem. A huge burden. It was probably because I wasn’t contributing to the expenses in the house. But I told her I needed some time to recover from…the shock before I could get on with my life and find a job to help her out. It got worse after her boyfriend lost his job. He couldn’t pay his house rent and had to move in with us.”She wrapped her hands around her arms as if to sha

You might be punishing them by being apart from them for such a long time. And you never even got the chance to hear their opinion on the matter before running off. Maybe it wasn’t going to be as bad as you thought.”“I don’t think they will want her back,” Richard spoke in a low, pessimistic tone, speaking for her. “After the video spread, the school called in her parents to discuss it,” he turned to Heather. “Please don’t take it the wrong way for what I said about them not wanting you back,” he apologized and she nodded in acknowledgement.“Your parents thought I did it because they knew we were in a serious relationship already and were utterly disappointed in me. Everyone at school thought I did it, but after I figured out it was Ben and

Richard came to his rightful position and I wrapped my hands firmly on his under the table, not willing to let him go again. He gave me a knowing look and didn’t resist. Instead, he pressed it tighter, squeezing out a smile from me. “Along the line, I did go to visit my parents…”“You did?” Richard blurted out, his brows drawing in in surprise.“Yeah, but it didn’t go well,” she answered as if breaking a piece of bad news to him.I let out a low disappointed sigh. My hope of her going to stay with them and me not having to worry about her presence had just hit rock bottom. I just hope she won’t stay here for long. Richard and I will have to discuss that. My only hope now was to convince him to rent a house away from this part of the city for her. I pray he agrees to that.Heather looked away for a moment and sighed, as if recalling something very unpleasant. I

    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

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.

    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

I couldn’t shake off the feeling that I could be pregnant. And the thought of that made me feel worse. I just couldn’t get pregnant now. Now wasn’t the right time at all. Heavens, please…I threw up a couple more times and the whole discomfort deteriorated. I got dressed and decided to visit a lab nearby to run some tests, keeping my fingers crossed that it had better not be what I was thinking.To my greatest shock and disappointment, it turned out to be true. The test turned out positive. I was fucking pregnant.Since I came back, I have been feeling extremely sad. I didn’t know how to handle the news much less break it to Richard.I knew pregnancy was supposed to be good news.
