Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 65: Acting Sweet
LUCAS POV My eyes locked with that of the investigator and he bowed in greeting but I wasn't at ease. “Oh Mr Jackson, your wife's so beautiful, you should come over for dinner.” Mr Allan, a business associate and his wife said before walking past us.I looked at Allysa and found her face constricting, is it really painful? I asked myself, rolling my eyes as Jack walked up to us.“Are you enjoying your night, Allysa?” He asked and she forced a smile. “Yeah of course, are you enjoying the party?” She asked as his eyes locked with mine.“She doesn't look fine Lucas, are you okay Allysa? You look pale.”“ I'm fine, it's nothing to worry about.” She replied and I was grateful for that.“Can I leave the both of you for a while? I need to speak with someone.” I walked away before they could even say jack. That investigator has to leave this instant.“Oh Mr Jackson, come over here please.” That was Mr Rogers and his extra young wife. He was known for getting married to younger ladies after
Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 66: Hurt & Confusion
LUCAS POV I stood still, staring at the screen of the phone. “Aren't you going to pick it? She must be waiting for your response.”“Benny leave us alone.” I said and immediately she walked away. “What are you talking about? It's not even registered in my phone so how do you expect me to know whoever is calling?”“It has been going on for almost a month if not more than a month Lucas have you tried making any efforts to stop the calls and messages?”“Just give me a clue on how to stop it then maybe I'll be able to do it, what do you think?” I asked, turning on my heels.“Yeah walk away, that's what you always do, walking,walk away.” I didn't bother replying her, just continued on my lane and walked back into the bedroom.I dialed the number and her voice greeted me.“Hi Lucas.” I froze a little.“What else do you know about me?” I asked and she chuckled.“That shouldn't be your concern, did you receive the pendant? It has our initials, L and L, isn't it lovely?”“You're clearly insane
Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 67: You Love Her
ALLYSA'S POV I stormed into the house, tears streaming down my cheeks as Benny almost bumped into me. “Ma'am, are you okay?”“Let me be.” I walked quickly up the stairs, into our bedroom before shutting the door. I cannot bear to face him right now, not at all.I sank to the floor, with my back to the wall as the tears continued to gush out. “Seeing someone?” I asked, laughing dryly.He must think I'm just a joke.“Allysa, Allysa.” I heard him call from outside but I wasn't ready to face him.“Come on just open up, open the door let's talk.”“C..can you just go away? I really don't wanna talk to you right now, just let me be.”After a while, I stood on my feet, unlocking the door before walking back to the bed.He walked in, staring at me, looking helpless.“I shouldn't have said that.” He said, walking closer to me. “You said what you had in mind, nothing else.”“Still, I shouldn't have said that, I'm sorry.”“You know Lucas, I sometimes wonder if giving you a divorce would be the b

ALLYSA'S POV “Are you gonna pick me up? I'm about stepping out of the building.” I said, walking through the lobby and trying not to bump into anyone.“Yeah sure, I'm on my way already I guess I over anticipated this outing.” Ivy said and we both chuckled. I walked out of the building, my eyes taking in the environment as I sighed.Lucas played through my mind and of course I couldn't stop thinking about him, no matter how crossed I am with him, I'd never stop thinking about.“Hello pretty lady, hop in.” I heard Ivy's familiar voice as she raised her sunshade from her eyes.“I guess you perfected your driving skills, did you hit anyone on your way here?” She rolled her eyes and hit the road as soon as I got in.“Allysa you should be nice, I'm driving safely for the first time and this is what you have to say? I'm hurt.”“Aww alright, I'm sorry I said that, I shouldn't have.” We drove for a while in utter silence till we got to our favorite mall. “When last did you shop?” She asked.

ALLYSA'S POV “Good evening ma'am.” Benny greeted as I made my way into the house with several shopping bags. “How was your day? I should help you with these.” She said, taking the bags from me and walking up the stairs.“I'm fine Benny, my day was great too. I had fun.”“I'll set the table.”“I'm not gonna have dinner, I'm full you should serve Lucas when he gets back.” I said and she nodded and walked out.Sighing loudly, I placed my bag on the bed and proceeded into the bathroom to have a shower and change. By the time I came out, it was already dark and Lucas was not yet back.I settled in bed, turning on the TV as I began scrolling through the channels.“You came back early.” Lucas said, walking into the bedroom as I smiled. “I sure did.” I replied as a knock came through the door.“Come in.” Benny walked in with a bowl containing fruits as I furrowed my brows. “What's this?”“For us, I'm not having dinner so we should have fruit, she told me you weren't having dinner too.”“Did
Betrothed To Mr Arrogant Chapter 70: Sadness
LUCAS POV Jack will really have my neck on a pole for doing this but why did I do it? I asked myself as I sat by the poolside, closing my eyes.“You have to believe me Lucas, it's not what you think, besides why did you have someone stalk me? It's ridiculous.”“You're a cheat Allysa, get that into your head.” Tears rolled freely down my cheeks as he walked towards the door. “You really believe what you saw?” I asked, holding him back.“Yes I do, I believe it and there's nothing you can do about it.” he pushed my hands off him as I fell to the ground.“Now you can feel what I've been feeling with your cold treatment.”“Shit.” I muttered. I said a lot of insensible things. The next morning when I woke up, Allysa wasn't in bed and it made me wonder where she had gone to. My phone buzzed and as I looked at the name displayed on the screen, I closed my eyes.“Hi Granny.”“How are you doing Lucas? How's Allysa?” She asked as I got out of bed and began walking out of the bedroom down the s

ALLYSA'S POV She was still texting him? Mouth felt sour and dry and tears pooled in my eyes again, why's all these happening and why now? I placed his phone on the bedside table and pulled the duvet over my body before closing my eyes. It took a long time before I could finally sleep and the next moment I opened my eyes, a little sunlight was pouring in through the window.I turned to look at Lucas but his spot was empty and the shower was running in the bathroom.I got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom, “Good morning ma'am.” Benny greeted, walking past me as she made her way into the kitchen.“Morning Benny, did you just wake up?”“Yes ma'am, do you wanna prepare breakfast? I can__”“I'll prepare it with your assistance.” I replied and she nodded smiling. I noticed she loves cooking and was sometimes sad whenever I decided to cook.After preparing breakfast, we set the table and few minutes later, Lucas walked down the stairs.“Breakfast is served.”“I'm really in a haste an

He'd gone out and we still faced the consequences till today, now this?“Lucas, where are you going to? Lucas!” I yelled as he got to the car.He opened the door but I shut it and leaned on the door. “Aren't you tired of treating me like shit? I've apologized, begged, I've done what every reasonable wife would do so tell me where I went wrong and for the record Lucas__” I paused and turned to look around.“I don't even know what sex feels like, you were my first kiss, first intimate touch,first everything so why won't you believe me.”“You told me you weren't a virgin.” He fired.“I guess I lied!” I fired angrily,the tears was rolling freely down my cheeks but I didn't care. “Lucas, I know I wanted this marriage to end, I didn't want to get married and all but now?

Said he had something to do at the office.” I replied.“And you're suspecting something?” Ivy asked as I sighed. “I can't help but feel that he's hiding something from me, something I ought to know.”“Oh really? Then you should ask him, be plain.” I nodded and walked back into the house.“Come on let's get you to bed, it's been a long night.” I said as I carried Ariel to bed. “Mummy am I gonna go to school tomorrow?”“Yes baby you'll go to school okay?”The next morning came really quickly as I got up from bed and walked to the bathroom to relieve my bladder. Walking out of the bathroom, I made my way towards Ariel's room and tickled her till she opened her eyes.“Come on mummy that's not fair, you're tickling me.”“Yeah, so you can get up and go to school.” Her eyes went saucer ro
