Chapter 3

Gina’s POV

“I am busy.” The phone fell off my hands and tears left my eyes immediately, “Madam Gina..”

“Mrs Sarah, I need some air please,” I said standing on my feet and walking to the garden, I normally come here a few times just to sit and reason because right now I am in a state of confusion, my husband has a child outside our marriage, it’s so hard for me to process, everything is just happening so fast.

I fell to the ground and burst into serious tears, I love Liam with all my heart, he should have told me the truth from the beginning, does this mean he never loved me? Not even for once? Was this a joke to him? What on earth did I ever do to deserve such a treatment from Liam?

I remembered the very beginning, I thought he loved me and would never hurt me and that was the reason he wanted the marriage or was I thinking too much back then because of my feelings for him that was beyond control?  Could it be that the love I thought he had for me had gone cold all of a sudden? I have been an understanding wife and lover to him, even when he hurts me deeply I try to understand maybe he did it out of anger or he needs to make sure to run the company with most of his time leaving me home alone but now it turns out he has been spending his time and all with the lady who came in today.

My phone call ringtone interrupted my thinking and it was a call from Mrs Sarah, I know she is worried about me, I will pick up later, I just need time to get myself together, everything feels so strange today and for heaven's sake, it’s my birthday, can’t I get surprises to make me so happy? Why am I getting so sad on my birthday, I will not believe a word from her not until I hear from Liam that he truly had an affair with her and not until he tells me himself that he never loved me for once, I will not believe a thing.

I brought out my phone and tried to call Liam hoping by now he would be free and get me the answers I needed but the same thing, he didn’t return my calls and his actions toward it made me want to believe, though my heart for him says otherwise, guess I am truly a fool for love, I will return home and avoid anything that will cause struggles and argument and try my very best to enjoy my birthday today, no bad energy will ruin it.

Mrs Sarah found me in the garden and told me that the new mistress was causing issues.

I took a deep breath and wiped off my tears as I stood on my feet and walked in with Mrs Sarah. I overheard arguments coming from my room so I used the staircase and rushed to my room.

“What is going on here?” I questioned.

“Finally you are here, I want this room so kindly exit the room.” She said to me and I felt insulted.

“You don’t rule me, Miss, this is my home and this is my room, you can’t just move in with some weird news and now try to kick me out of my room, what exactly are you up to?”

“How can you have the big room? I want the big room, after all, I am the one with Liam's child meaning I am the new Madam here, so just call me Madam Mariam and tell you old hag maid to let the others pack your things out.” She said in a commanding tone and I tried to talk back but the way she held her stomach, she complained that I was stressing her and her baby.

“Just take the next room okay, if you are stressed then you need rest, there is no way I am leaving my room,” I added.

“If you won’t leave then I will ruin it.” She threatened and before I could blink she lifted my flower vase and broke it in my very presence.

“Are you crazy? Why will you break things that belong to Madam Gina?” Mrs Sarah yelled.

“Old hag, you are getting on my nerves, I will make sure you lose your job first and you will regret not being on my side the very first day I came.” She was about going for my painting and drawing tools I use in drawing and painting as well, I took it from her with force, “Get your hands off my things and leave my room.”

Unexpectedly she slapped me and I held my face tight, Mrs Sarah was about to take action but I stopped her, “She is trouble, just ignore her, it’s just a slap and it doesn’t hurt a bit.” I said to Sarah who got really angry and left the room.

“Now listen, bitch, if you know what is good for you, I want you out of my man’s house by tomorrow, it is time for me to take your place as the new Madam.”

“I am not a bitch okay, between the both of us, you will be the one to leave got that? I am his legal wife and there is nothing you can do about it.”

“You might be his legal wife but I am the one with his child, the heir to everything that belongs to Liam and I also own his heart as well so if I were you, I would prepare my luggage tonight to leave at once.”

“I don’t care, Liam loves just me.” I didn’t know the time I shed more tears in her presence and she made a mockery of me which really hurt me the most.

“I will prove to you that by tomorrow you will be gone for good.” She added and brought out her phone and showed me a picture of her and Liam naked on the bed together, my heart beating, and I was about to have a panic attack and then she said, “Do you know that when Liam makes love to me he tells me how much he loves me and how he is so addicted to me alone and do you know what he regrets the most, the day he made you his wife because he had no option so you see Gina, you are nothing to Liam, take this advice from me and get lost by tomorrow, I will let you sleep here tonight, bye for now.” She bombed my thoughts with her words and exited my room, I fell to the ground and buried my head as I allowed the tears to follow with excess pains in my heart any second I thought of the picture I saw, Liam why me? Am I the victim here?
