RICHARD’S POV

"I was fooled," B sniffled in a sob, tears streaming down her face as she lifted her head from my chest. "I bumped into him at a coffee shop, and he caught my phone before it fell. I thought he was the guy who had tried to force himself on me at the club, but he explained that we hadn't met before and I believed him. He said his name was Bernard and he was visiting family from another city. He…” She brought her hand over her mouth to stop herself from breaking down further because it seemed all too much for her to bear.

“It’s okay,” I said as I still held her closer again. “You don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to.”

She shook her head in disagreement. “No…I want to talk about it.”

I shrugged and let her since she wanted to.

“He was so nice…and made me feel comfortable. And I was so stupid and naïve, thinking he cared and ended up telling him everything I wasn’t supposed to tell him,” she sighed heavily and looked away in guilt. “I never knew h

    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

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

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.

    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.

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.

    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. 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

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.
