(Vivienne)"I feel like you are hurting yourself, "I said, taking a sip of my freshly made mango juice. Both of us stopped at a restaurant after a good refreshing ride bonding with nature. I was being honest with Leo, he was my favorite person, and seeing him hurt made me feel sad"I'm fine you don't have to worry...what's important is you are okay," he said as he played with his fork digging in his food. I didn't believe a word he said because I could feel he was hurting from inside and it was Monica's fault. I told her countless times to stop whatever she was doing. How on Earth was she going out with two men? Leo was hurting because the woman he loved was going out with another man "I don't see you getting better...you work all the time... sometimes I feel like you are the new Vic" I had to be honest with him. His eyes said it all, his actions proved he was hurting inside and the thought of it made me hate Monica for playing with Leo's feelings"I should be worried about you...tel
(Vivienne)"Ms...Ms. Payton, I don't think this is safe" Victor said as he moved closer to me. I told him I had everything under control and there was no need for him to stop me. I've done this before and I didn't need his help"Don't worry I've done this before... remember when you got drunk" I said winking at him and driving the car at normal speed. I knew how to drive and I did this when I first met him. I drove his car and didn't damage it so why couldn't he just let me drive to our destination peacefully"See I'm sure you remember...I drove you safe and sound...I'm pregnant not broken plus I trust me with driving not you" I said when he didn't say anything about that night and moved away from the steering wheel and let me do my thing. I knew he was worried that a pregnant lady wasn't supposed to drive but I don't think there was anything wrong with me driving. I was okay "Sir trust me...you are safe in my hands I told you before...when Vivienne is around you don't have to worry"
(Vivienne)I watched him as he built the tent. Was I asking too much from him..maybe he was already irritated with me but I couldn't help itSince I've known Victor I've never seen him genuinely happy, I thought since he had everything he ever needed he'd be happy unfortunately that wasn't the caseHe rarely smiled nor did anything which made him happy, I felt bad just seeing him like that. I wasn't pitting him but I just wanted him to loosen up a bit. To smile and be carefree. He seemed like someone who had the world on his shoulders. Like every little burden was on him. He didn't have to solve the world's problems"Sir you are a doctor right...why don't you work in the hospital?"I asked the question I always wanted to ask. I was so curious about Victor. He seemed like multiple talented people. He knew almost everything. He was a successful businessman no surprise there and he was also a doctor. I wanted to know some things about him and more on a personal level"I'm not a doctor" he
(Vivienne)When morning came I was surprised we spent the night outdoors. It was something I didn't think would happen but waking up wrapped in Victor's arms was something I always loved each time it happened. Happiness rushed through me that all I wanted was to snuggle to his warm body. Unfortunately, the man was shamelessly awake and teasing me. The idea of snuggling with him was disrupted when his eyes flew open and caught me in the process"Rise and shine?"I muttered with a smile but he didn't say anything and only looked at me blankly. It was understandable knowing Victor was a man of a few words. I scanned his handsome face and blinked a few times when his arm which was supporting his head moved to his sides and he cupped my face"Good morning" he murmured and tucked my face behind my ear. I smiled and leaned toward his hand. Was he in a good mood for him to give me such a wonderful morning? I tilted my head and ended up kissing his hand and I saw as he narrowed his eyes and sli
(Vivienne)This was a bad idea. I should have kept my mouth shut but I had to get angry and rattled out Monica. The doctor was always cool and never got angry but that wasn't the case because now the worst of it all happened when someone arrived at the wrong time adding fuel to the fire. I stepped away from the heated moment which I wanted to happen a long time ago when I found out Monica had two men in her life and both she didn't want to let go of and now Leo and Justin were standing face to face. Head on and angry that I could feel the heat from where I was. Monica stood there trying, by all means, to keep her tears in check and I felt even worse knowing I caused this"Son of a bitch!"The doctor was fast to land a heavy punch across Leo's face such that Leo stumbled backward obviously wasn't expecting something so vicious from a man who was refined and carried himself like a nobleman. I saw as Leo held his mouth and straightened up. I could tell he was boiling with rage as his shar
(Vivienne)"This is enough...thanks Julia, "I said when I got the tray of heavy breakfast on the tray from the kitchen. Julia wanted to take breakfast to Monica but I decided to do it. Since last night the woman had been ignoring me. I felt terrible and didn't even want to see Victor when he came backI was angry at him for being such a jerk as to use me for his benefits, yes the situation was unpleasant and any man would get angry if the people close to him were doing that kind of thing under his roof"Please just eat this once...see she made omelets and pancakes. I asked her not to add syrup because you hate it. ''I said when I got to Monica's room and she was avoiding me. I found her bedroom door open and she was sitting by the window going through some files. She wasn't like her usual self but just wearing a white robe with her hair pinned up and her face make-up free"Take everything out" she simply said without even looking at me. I came to know the envelope I got the last time
(Vivienne)"Hehehe...s...stop it...that's enough"the licking was so much that I couldn't help but laugh. It was ticklish that I turned to get rid of whatever it was and when my hands brushed in fur."Tiny?"I was surprised when my eyes opened only to find the brown furry puppy staring at me with cute eyes and when I tried to touch it, it jumped on my chest and licked me again, happiness washed over me"Hey boy when did you come huh, "I said while lifting it off my chest and raising it in the air it made low sounds and I smiled and tried to sit up"Oh god...this is a disaster" even getting up was a huge problem all because of my big belly. "So did the grumpy man bring you back huh...are you fine?"I asked while I checked its little paw to see if it was alright. The last time I saw it, the doctor told us the surgery they did on it was successful and just needed time to heal and now I saw it was even stretching itself. I smiled and hugged it in my chest feeling relieved that the little th
"Is everything okay...do you feel uncomfortable...have you eaten...come take a seat" every time he asked so many questions and once and forcefully led me to sit and like a fool, I complied and sat comfortably on the sofa and cradled the puppy in my lap"Aren't you coming, sir...I'm about to leave"I asked, keeping my eyes on the puppy and I played with its ears. He never came with me unless he wasn't so busy but now I knew he wasn't coming"Ms. Payton, I have a business trip in two days...I won't take long but today I'll be around but I just won't come with you" he said hearing his voice he was calm and collected which made me angry but I didn't have to show my anger other than endure this"Okay""Kyan will escort you...the driver is waiting for you better get ready...I'll inform Maverick" the man said and I had nothing to say to him. He was a busy man and I didn't have to worry. "Fine," I said letting go of the puppy and it jumped off my lap and ran away I rested my hands on the armr
