I'm coming!" I said as I walked to the door and I opened it to see a strange looking beautiful but sophisticated dressed young lady whose smile suddenly turned to a deep frown when she saw me."How may I help you?" I asked when I noticed that she won't stop glaring at me for reasons known to her of course."Where's Jaxon?" She ignored my question, I almost shut the door in her face for her rudeness but I decided to ignore her manners."Xav, you have a guest" I said, turning to stare at him."Wow! He allowed you to shorten his name" she chuckled "Who's there?" He asked as he stood in front of the door with his eyes widely opened in shock.The lady dressed in a bitchy dress suddenly dragged her big bag inside the house and she went to sit down on a couch like she owns the place, "is this how to treat your first and only love after seeing her again after a few months of..." She trailed off winking at him naughtily and I stared at Jaxon not wanting to believe that he has been seeing oth
"No! You can tell us whatever you want to say here" he replied gulping down nervously."I don't think that Mrs Anthony is strong enough to bear the news" he said and tears slipped out of my eyes."Too much stress for doubting someone, I'll be waiting for the both of you in the car. I want to sleep. My baby is tired" she muttered with a sly smile as she walked out of the hospital."You really won't do anything to stop her?" I suddenly asked, feeling angry and frustrated about everything."I... I..." He stammered as he ruffled his hair while I tried to walk out on him, " please, don't let us go back to how we were. Just a little trust will be nice, even though she is pregnant with my child, we both know that you're the one I love" he cried as he held me but I released myself from him harshly eying him angrily."Then you should have thought about what would have happened in the future when you put it in her and didn't pull it out" I snapped as I ran out of the hospital in tears."Take me
Heartbroken, scared and mad...These were the three feelings that could describe the emotions surging through my veins and entire body as I ran after Ayla immediately she ran out of the hospital, yelling her name while she ignored me and flagged down a taxi and drove off, I immediately entered my car and drive after her ignoring Lisa's screams and tantrums of going home.I was surprised when she didn't enter the club as usual and I saw her walking away from the club, I was about to follow her when Lisa held my hands and said, "if you leave me here on my own, I hope you won't be surprised when you see the news about my pregnancy for you on the news""I don't care and read my lips carefully, if the news about this pregnancy gets out before I am able to confirm if it's truly like like you claimed, then don't be surprised if you sleep one night and wake up to realize that you lost the child" I snickered angrily as I stormed out of the car and followed the path I saw Ayla going to earlie
"Mr Anthony, you came with..." One of my business partners asked as she eyed Lisa, probably thinking that she's my mistress."She's a long time friend who came around to visit me, my wife is actually feeling indisposed, so she told me to come with her just to keep me company" I muttered."I hope it's what we have all been waiting for? I can't wait to see your child with her" she said with a chuckle."Who knows? It might be or not" Lisa replied with a fake smile."I wasn't talking to you! I don't like you and I don't think that I ever will! You look so fake and..." She trailed off as she eyed her as if she's the worst thing in this world."It's so pathetic that some people don't just appreciate or tend to like good things," she retorted, flipping her hair with a proud smirk."Don't you think that you're not even in the right position to be the judge..." She replied with a cocky smile but I interrupted her."Lisa! Keep your words in check and apologize this instant" I said with a cold g
I was sitting at my desk working endlessly and tirelessly with a sheepish smile on my face thinking about Ayla but the smile suddenly turned into a deep frown when I remembered that Lisa girl that's here to cause a rift between Ayla and I. Even though I'm pretending to be alright with everything, I'm seriously scared, nervous and confused about everything happening. Something in my guts keeps on telling me that she's here for a bad cause but I wasn't ready to believe that, perhaps because a part of me still loves and cares for her even though I'm in denial."Boss!" Richard called barging into the office, his voice laced with urgency, uncertainty and fear."What's it again this time around, Richard? Don't tell me that something bad happened in the company" I groaned as I loosened my tie a bit, preparing myself for the news he's about to sprout out, probably good or bad but his body language showed that it's bad news."Boss, have you checked the news? " He asked, sitting down in fron
Richard and I stepped out of the company in the night, it was around 8. I was extremely tired even though I didn't do any work today. All I need right now is to soak myself in cold water for a very long time, and sleep after a full body massage."You look stressed out, I wonder how exhausted you would be right now if i didn't tell us to take a break, you really needed it" he remarked as he helped me unlock the door of my car."I'm just exhausted and sleepy at the moment, don't know why. I'll leave now" I said as I was about to enter my car when his words stopped me."You look like you need adequate rest, why don't you go for a vacation with Ayla even if it's just for one day. I'll take care of everything in this place while you're away and I'm sure that the workers would also be versatile in their duties" he said thoughtfully while I just held my chin like I was in a deep thought."Just accept it for old time sake, please. By now, you should know that I love this company like mine.
I want to forget about the past but it's really hard since...."Boss! We're home already" the driver said as he tapped me gently, pulling me out of my train of thoughts.I smiled at him and walked out of the door, I inhaled a deep breath and entered the house. I almost lost my cool when I saw Lisa yelling at Ayla, who was sipping wine so calmly and nonchalantly like someone who was being entertained by a boring fellow. That lazy, boring and nonchalant but calm look."And don't you dare look at me with that look in your eye!" Lisa yelled angrily as she was breathing heavily and erratically."And if I do?" Ayla asked with a chuckle and I almost laughed at how pained Lisa looked at that moment."Don't forget that he met and fell in love with me first and I can still bet it with you that he still loves me, after all it's said that it's really difficult to unlove your first love" she said with pride evident in her voice as she moved her hand in front of Ayla’s face like she wanted to put
Good riddance! Her audacity still baffles me, for real. I was almost at the edge of hurting her earlier. How dare she try to come into my home and break it with some story about her being pregnant for my husband. I threw my head backward and laughed wholeheartedly for a long time till my stomach aches and tears spilled out of my eyes.I don't want to admit it but I was scared that she'll steal Jaxon's attention away from me using her pregnancy as bait. The thought deeply bothered me to the extent that I was considering having a child for Jaxon also. I'm sure that he'll love my child more since he loves me but a part of me believes that he loves her.A tear rolled out of my eyes at that thought and I felt my heart squeeze and I choked on my breath, as I tried to breathe properly. It hurts that I love him so much to the extent that mere thoughts about him with another woman moved me to tears and it made me feel this hurt and bitter.I couldn't help but wonder how I'll feel if it reall
