CHAPTER 87RICHARD'S POVI looked at her. “You were right when you said I’m afraid I wouldn’t find true love. That I’m scared no one will ever love me like I deserve…” Her breath hitched and her expression grew apologetic. “I’m sorry I said all those hurtful things to you. I didn’t mean it…it was out of anger…” “Don’t be,” I cut her off, reaching for her hand, holding it and stroking her fingers gently. “You made me realize my greatest mistake and I’m grateful for that. After my last relationship ended, I didn’t want to love again. I forgot how to love. I became too cautious…too afraid that every woman I met was only interested in my looks or money, not in who I truly was.…” I let out a sigh, feeling overwhelmed. My grip on her hand loosened, and I looked away. It was tough saying all that, but I knew I had to. I had to tell her the truth. I had to let her know how much I had come to love her. It took me long to realize it, but now I do and I'm happy I did. Happy that I could finall
Chapter 88RICHARD’S POVI went to the fridge and opened the doors to take out the two bowls of chocolate soufflé there. But then I had a better idea – why don’t B and I just eat from the same bowl instead of separately? I have seen some couples do it even in public. It was kind of cute and romantic. I have no problem with it especially now that I was learning to love again, and I’m sure B won’t either.With that in mind, I grabbed the one I was eating earlier before she called on the phone about the incident with stupid Ben and closed the fridge door. Then, I grabbed two spoons and went back to her room.By the time I made it back to the room, she had just finished removing her dress and was about to take off her bra when she saw me and stopped.“You’re back,” she smiled brightly, then the moment she saw what I was carrying, her brows drew together in confusion. She tilted her head towards it. “What are you carrying?”“My favourite,” I said with a warm smile, kicking the door shut a
Chapter 89RICHARD’S POVB and made a mess of ourselves, but it was fun. She had dumped dollops of the dessert on me and licked me clean, and I did the same to her. Then we decided to take it to the bathroom and wash off from there.I took off the little piece of underwear and the night robe she had on, revealing her beautiful rawness. She unbuckled my belt and slid off my pants, revealing the prominent bulge straining against the stretchy fabric. She took off my underwear and on seeing my hardening cock, she gasped a little and swallowed a subtle breath, looking like she couldn’t wait to have it inside her. She took my hand and guarded me to the bathroom.She turned on the shower. As the water whooshed down from the showerhead in a soothing rhythm, she reached for the handle to adjust the temperature, finding the perfect balance between warm and cool water.We giggled like two teenagers in love for the first time as we stepped into the shower, letting the whooshing water cascade ove
Chapter 89 RICHARD’S POV I woke up to see B sleeping on my chest and her leg wrapped around mine. She had a peaceful look on her face as she breathed softly like a kitten, and her boundless hair was splattered all over me. Her face was slowly getting better. The red marks and bruises Ben inflicted on her yesterday were starting to fade, and her swollen lips looked less puffy now. It seemed like everything would heal faster than I thought. Last night, we had made love till we both passed out. The memories were still fresh in my mind and I couldn’t stop replaying them. Sighing in satisfaction, I gently sprung up to lean back at the headboard of the bed. I lifted B a little off my chest so as not to wake her and adjusted her on the bed. She made slight snuggly movements as though she noticed she had been moved to a different position, but she didn’t open her eyes. I sat up at the edge of the bed, yawned and stretched out to shake off drowsiness. I cupped my face as I looked below and
Chapter 91BIANCA’S POV I kept that paper on top of the nightstand the day I returned with it from Mr. Sam’s house. I forgot to put it away and now Richard has seen it and thinks I’m an insecure freak who likes pushing good things away and creating problems where there aren’t any. But I wasn’t any of that. Our relationship was just rekindled yesterday. The last thing I wanted was for all that effort to be thrown in the mud. I love him. Knowing that he wasn’t with any woman aside from me and promising never to bring any slut to the apartment made me love him more. And I didn’t care to find out why he and that Heather girl broke up after their long relationship. Whatever reason it was, I didn’t care anymore. If only I could make him see that. Make him see that that paper was a mistake that was never meant to happen. If only I could… “No…” Tears clouded my eyes, stinging them and streaming down my cheek as I tried to come close to him. “You can’t say that…isn’t not true.” “Please don’
Chapter 92BIANCA’S POVMy brows furrowed as I downloaded the video. It was quite long and the caption that followed was written in block letters; HER NAME WAS HEATHER MORRISON AND THIS IS WHAT YOUR LOVING HUSBAND DID TO HER AFTER SUCH A LONG TIME IN RELATIONSHIP (with two fingers pointing up at it.)The caption was talking about the Heather girl with the big, cartoonish emerald eye in the feedback report Mr. Sam gave me. The one who used to date Richard. The one I was so desperate to see though I wished it could be physically because I had a lot of questions to ask her. This video will be about her. But who could have sent it to me? Even my caller and sender identifier app couldn’t figure it out. It only showed the location, which was in the same city as mine. That meant whoever the sender was, he or she was close by.My breath quivered involuntarily as I waited for the download to complete. I had this feeling that whatever I will see in it won’t be good. When I finally played the v
Chapter 93BIANCA’S POVAll these questions bombarded in my mind, leaving me almost breathless with bewilderment and suspense. This person knew my husband more than I ever did. He probably grew up with him in a neighbourhood or had gone to the same high school he went to or something that made him know this much about him.But that part where he said “Ask him why such a blissful relationship that was envy-worthy then end very badly” made me think of one person, and that was Ben. Now I was starting to have every reason to believe this was him. That he is the unknown sender. And if it was truly him, then believing all these would be difficult because I already knew the type of person he was and what he was capable of doing.That night at the club when Richard came to my rescue as Ben tried to force me to come with him, even though I was a bit drunk, I noticed the way they glared at each other like they were long-time enemies. But I brushed it off, thinking they were just two angry guys
Chapter 94RICHARD’S POVI can’t believe I married someone who could go as far as snooping around my past behind my back. Was that necessary? If she wanted to know anything about me, she would have simply asked instead of resorting to such means.Perhaps I made a mistake in giving love another chance. I made a big mistake trying to learn how to love again because it was all never worth it. I should have just made do with my old self and avoided all these love and marriage problems.Whenever I love someone truly, something or someone ends up coming in between, sabotaging it and leaving it in crumbles. Before it was Ben, even though the idiot was still on my neck. Now, my own wife was the one instigating it. Just how?! After she said she loved me countless times. After our long intense moment together last night, after I turned a new leaf for her and forfeited all that love test to frustrate her, yet again, she goes behind my back to seek information. Didn’t all that matter to her? Or
