Irene opened the door to her room, she saw her husband lying on the bed sleeping, as she was pacing around contemplating whether to ask him about the anniversary party or not, but how would she tell him who told her? She doesn't want the party or anyone in the house or someone to find out about her secret affair, she doesn't want an intruder in the house. She needs to find a way to stop the party.
She sat on the bed and decided to open her gift and behold it was a gold necklace, bangle and a gift card written: you are my life, please stay with me, always know that I love you till the end of time. She paused and sighed, about to feel remorse on what she was doing but shrugged it away. She is fighting for her own love and it's time she tell him so he can find his. But Francis said it's not yet time, how much long does he need? She wondered, or should she give him money through George ? She decided to give it a thought later but now she ne
At the Anniversary dinner, the setting was so glorious and one of the best decorator in the state did that at the courtesy of George , the color was white and sky blue with white candles, Irene came with so much anticipation and calmness. She was wearing a fine red gown with sparkling diamond necklace George got for her and nice small red heels sandals, parking her hair in a high bun, she was looking so beautiful. She walked straight where George was standing in a little dark place in an astonishing black tuxedo.As she approached him, she sight his tall, masculine figure, the tuxedo looks so good on him even the way he styled his hair reminded her of her wedding day, how handsome he looked. Immediately she approached, he turned and saw his amazing wife looking so glowing, he reached his hand and she placed hers on it and they both said happy anniversary. He brought her close and kissed her tender lips coated with red lipstick, “I love you Irene, I love you so muc
As Irene walkedStephanie to the driveway, she bided farewell and they promised to see each other in four days time. Stephanie got in the car and drove off, she turn back and in a distance saw Francis standing at the porch waiting for call or order, she felt so bad for how she talked to him earlier. She started thinking of a means to talk to him which she doesn’t know how to because the house was full. She decided to find a way later and walked back to the garden where her family was still gathered.She saw Vanessa talking with George and she became bothered what she might be telling him, and wondered if she was complaining to him about the way she acted or something else. She decided to go closer to them and find out. Getting there, George pulled her into his arms, “it’s time for the second surprise. As it is our anniversary, we are having another wedding night,” he winked at her. “The driver is ready to take us to our hotel, it&rsquo
Its bright Sunday Morning, table is been set for breakfast, and Francis was busy making sure the house is in order. For the past four days he has been avoiding Irene and making a good relationship with Vanessa, Vanessa on her part is beginning to fall for Francis' trick and she is enjoying every bit of it. They have become so intimate for the past few days. Without having any remorse for hurting Irene, Francis enjoys every bit of heartbreak he shows her, once they retire every night, he intentionally sits out with Vanessa to spite Irene. He doesn't like the way that she spoke to him at the party, so he decided to use Vanessa to get back at her.Irene has tried so hard to have a connection or discussion with him but he avoids her. While Vanessa and Irene haven't been going well, Vanessa doesn't know why, she has asked Irene several times if everything is okay, Irene doesn't want anything to do with her, she has spoken with her husband to ask her when to leave but her hus
Stephanie sat in the living room with her leg crossed on the other, patiently waiting for Irene to come down the stairs. She saw Vanessa at the mini bar beside the dining room where she was reading with a bottle of red wine. She quietly observed her and noticed she could be a little bit friendly and walked up to her. "Hey you," she said, putting up a sweet friendly smile.Vanessa looked up at her briefly, “hi.”Stephanie licked her lips with her smile still on, “remember me?”“Should I?” Vanessa asked without looking up.“Not really though,” she chuckled, “but I was the decorator on your brother’s anniversary and also your sister in law’s friend, Stephanie by the name.”“Nice to meet you.”“Okay, and you are?”Looking up at her, she answered, “Vanessa.”Stephanie stretched out her hand to her and she took it after a second
Irene kept to her words and went to Stephanie’s house the next day, she walked in when Stephanie opened the door looking pale and weak. "Please sit," Stephanie said, pointing at a small purple cushion beside the window, "should I get tea or water?”“None, I’m fine,” Irene replied, using her hand to cover her eyes."Are you crying? Did George do something wrong?” Stephanie asked, trying to play nice and trusting.Heaving a sigh, Irene uttered regretfully, "George is good, Stephanie, I am the bad one.”"How do you mean the a bad one?" Stephanie asked, drawing her chair closer.Irene sniffled and wiped away her tears, "never mind, can I have the tea?"Stephanie breathed out through the mouth, she nodded, got up and walked into the kitchen. Coming out with a tea cup and looking at Irene , "do you know I can help you and solve what the issue is, do you know that thing you are being bothered about or not b
George stood, watching Francis as he was busy cleaning the kitchen cabinets where he just finished cooking, as he turned his back he saw him standing with his hand folded on his chest and his index finger tapping his jaw, he asked immediately, “do you need anything sir?”"Francis, I need to talk with you, kindly come met me in the garden beside the orange tree," George and left.Francis stood speechless and confused, “what might it be?” He thought aloud, still wondering when Irenewalked in with a very sexy look. She walked straight to him and stood for a while looking at him."You know you are mine, whether you want me or not. I have tried speaking to you and you kept avoiding me, all my efforts didn't get to you, please forgive me and please accept me back. I am in love with you and remember you said you love me too," she said walking closely to him until their bodies started touching, “please meet me at the cottage by 12 am and pl
Chapter 20George walked out with anger, as he was walking along the pathway that led to the cottage, he called his driver to get the keys.At Lincoln suits, George was sitting in a sofa near a window, he was just looking at the view and the thoughts of how he meet his wife came to him, the first date, the long talk at night, his dream he shared with her, how she was so innocent and noble, the attraction, "was it all fake" he asked himself. But when they were dating she hasn't mentioned her dream to him, he tried so hard to see if he could he remember if she had but didn't take notice, he tried to check himself to see if
George and Lisa sat for hours in total silent, they both looked pale and their eyes swollen from crying too much. The held each other, each going through the same pain and everywhere remained quiet until Lisa spoke up, "I saw him last night, he told me he loved me so much, that his quitting his job and relocating where we can continue with each other and possibly get married. I was so happy that I have found love again, I felt renewed and satisfied, I never knew he said that to ditch me cause he was so much in a hurry. I had asked him why he was tensed, he told me he is trying to fix some things ready but didn't tell me what it was, he deceived me, after all the promises he made to and an...and..." she burst into tears again."I hired a spy,” George whispered,“after I noticed her mischievous
“About two years later, I got a mail from Chicago, who could have possibly send me a mail for about two years now? I opened it, it was from Ivana Thompson, my heart skipped, she begged me forgiveness, that George lied to her and equally broke her heart. She told me that after their graduation, the relationship became soar but she was managing it even though George doesn't give her attention. She was thinking he might change before they will enter college but a year in college, she got pregnant for him but he denied her. George never loved her, that as she is writing to me that I may not see her again, she told me George said that I told him that she is a street girl, spoilt girl which make her to always
Irene didn’t know she felt a sharp pain hearing how much he loved this Ivana girl, maybe it was because it was how she had thought he loved her and finally hearing him say that about another girl, she couldn’t just swallow it. She gulped and felt her mother touching her thigh, she looked at her and forced a smile before looking back at the screen. Perhaps it was for the best she was watching this, it would help drop any idea that maybe somewhere in that heart of his he had loved her, even if for a little bit.“That morning,” Francis said in the screen, “Ivana met me and was so excited on their previous date, she was talking to me but I didn't pay much attention because I wasn't interested in the story, she asked if all was okay, I nodded, thinking if I should tell her my mind or
Irene looked at the tape and kept wondering what it was, there was no doubt it was from Francis, but what could it possibly hold? What would be in it? The more she thought the more the worked up she got and she decided to just play it and see for herself. She quickly went to the stereo and input the tape, staring at the dark screen as her mother came in to join her. She waited for about five minutes but nothing showed, she looked at her mother but Elizabeth had nothing to say to her and they could only wait. Five more minutes gone and still nothing, Irene sighed, for a minute she had thought Francis left her final message but guess she was wrong and it was all just in her head.“Dear,” Elizabeth called seeing the disappointmen
George walked into his office seeing someone sitting at the visitors chair with their back to door, he wondered who could have walked in into his office and equally sitting without his presence, he went back immediately and asked the receptionist, "Who is that?""Your cousin sir, he have been checking on you since the two weeks you were absent,” she replied.George was shocked,oh it has been upto two weeks, was that why everyone has been lookingat me as if theysaw a ghost, he wondered. "My c
Irene was sitting on the sofa looking pale and weak when Elizabeth rushed in, "I came as soon as I heard your message,” she said, dropping her luggage on floor with shock on how her daughter looks, "What is it, what happened to you, why are you looking so pale?" She touched, felt her forehead and then bring her face up to look at her, “what happened my dear?”Irene didn't say anything, she was just sitting and looking dumb. "Irene talk to me please honey, I am your mother, I will always be here for you,” Elizabeth said, she was already worried when she listened to her message that she picked up the few things she could find and rushed to the airport and now seeing her like this confirmed her suspicions that something was wrong, “talk to me
For the few days George left the house, Irene has been restless and still in shock, yes she wanted to leave George but she didn't know it will open up like this, she was emotionally down that she didn't know whether she is doing the right thing, she hasn't seen Francis but she is not too bothered, her only concern is where and what George is up to. She regretted going to that cottage that night, she was worried but didn't know why because she knew within herself that she loves Francis more. So why is she feeling such remorse within her? Why does she want to see George so badly? She decided to look for Francis at least to know if she sees him she will stop regretting her ac
