Clara heard the door knocking and gestured for one of the maids to get the door. She has been here with Zara since this evening, there were out in the garden drinking tea and having a discussion.Clara opted for wine but, for some reasons. Zara refused, Clara took it that she doesn't like consuming alcohol. But Zara is only trying to protect her child, then they came in here after. Its been such a long day for the both of them."I must say, all of those dress are actually beautiful. You have good taste for things, don't you worry. You and I will be going shopping next." Clara said and Zara was shocked."Another one!" Zara exclaimed."Yes another one," Clara replied her wondering why she seems to be so surprised."Is anything the problem Zara? Don't you like shopping?" Clara asked her and she shook her head."No of course not, that's not it at all. Infact, I'm really grateful that you take good care of me. I'm just saying because I have a lot of clothes. I'm yet to even wear them, and
"What!" Bella stuttered, there's no way what this old witch just said now is the truth. No that can't be, Fred won't dare to humiliate her in this manner. She snatched the letter from Clara and read it carefully.She's probably just lying just to make Clara feel good. Bella saw exactly what Clara said and her heart broke into pieces. She didn't read the letter the other time, she was too excited thinking the flowers were meant for her.Bella feels like dying right now, she wishes the ground would just open and swallow her. Clara snatched the letter from her hands and giggled. Bella could hear a hint of mockery and honestly, she felt like crying. She could not even bring her face to look at the both of them right now. They must be laughing at her, even the delivery guy looked at Bella in such a weird way."Are you done fooling yourself now? The letter should be given to the right owner and of course the flowers as well. Hand them over now," Clara said and Bella closed her eyes in frust
"Clara!" Zara gasped, she couldn't believe Clara was giving this to her. She looked up at her, and tears fell from her eyes. She has never felt this loved in all her life, especially after her mother died.Her stepmother, father, and every other person treated her like trash. But here is Clara, her mother-in-law is treating her like a queen. Even though her husband doesn't care about her much, his mother has proven otherwise."Don't cry my darling, you are going to ruin your makeup," Clara said and Zara cried even more. She can't believe this is happening to her."This is really beautiful jewelry," Zara said as she caressed the necklace in the box."That was my engagement gift from Fred's father. It's the most valuable thing and most important thing to me. It's so dear to me, and I want you to have it." Clara said and Zara shook her head."No! No!! No!!! I can't have this, this is too much. It's yours, please I can't take this." Zara said and shook her head, there's no way she's takin
Fred was stunned the minute he saw his wife, he couldn't believe this was Zara right in front of him. She looked absolutely beautiful and stunning, Fred heaved a deep sigh of relief the moment he came face to face with her. He didn't even realize he was holding his breath all this while."Good evening," Zara greeted and Fred nodded his head. He was so dumbfounded that he could not say anything."Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean to stare so much. It's just that you are really beautiful and I can't get enough of you." Fred said and Zara smiled. She tried to bring out one of the chairs so she could take her seat. She was already tired of standing, seeing she was rushing to get the chair. Fred went to her side and pulled out the chair for her."Well, I guess you didn't think of me to be beautiful when you cheated on me with your best friend Bella," Zara said she promised she would not talk about their issues unless he mentioned it first. But she just couldn't help herself."Hmm! About that," Fred
"My mom?" Fred asked and Zara nodded."Yes, your mom and it's beautiful right?" Zara asked and Fred nodded his head."Yes it's lovely, it suits you." He said and smiled down at her, Fred couldn't tell what it was but there was something wrong with him. Why in the world is he feeling this way? He asked himself, he's just feeling so warm and he can't explain it. It must be because of the guilt he's trying to fight, it can't be anything other than that, right?"She said your dad gave it to her, it was her engagement gift. She thought I should have it, I refused but she wouldn't let me. Then she said it was my wedding gift from her, I didn't have any choice but to accept it then." Zara said and he nodded."You did the right thing, I'm sure my dad won't mind at all," Fred said and Zara felt emotional, it's really good that they all felt the same way about handing the necklace over to her.Soon Fred and Zara arrived at the cinema and alighted from the car. They both made their way to the ti
"Well you see growing up, I had a rough life. I was mistreated by my own family and I didn't have the opportunity to do a lot of things." Zara said and Fred felt sad for her. Why would anyone treat a member of their own family so badly?"I'm sorry to hear that, I didn't know you had a rough past." He said and Zara smiled. She can feel a lot of emotions welling up in her. No one has ever apologized to her for the way she was treated. But here is Fred doing just that, she's grateful for tonight. She has been able to take a lot of things off her mind."Thank you," Zara said looking up at Fred."What are you thanking me for?" Fred asked Zara."Thank you for bringing me here to see the movie, at least I was able to fulfill one of my lifelong dreams," Zara said which is the truth. She has always wanted to come here and she loved that she came here."Really? Your lifelong dream?" Fred asked her and she nodded her head."Yes, I have a full list of things I'm yet to do that I would love to do.
Fred is just not in the mood to talk to Bella or argue with her as it stands. He had a long day and he's tired. He doesn't want Bella to wake Zara up, she's as tired as he is."Bella, not this night please," Fred said and proceeded to walk into his room with Zara in his hands. He hugged her tightly to his chest firmly lifting her and holding her like a newly wedded bride.Fred carried her to the room and Bella followed after him. She can't stand the sight before her, she's the one he's supposed to carry that way and not Zara. He's even treating her like she's some special person. He's not even considering her feelings, Bella felt like screaming her lungs out at him. He better have a very good explanation for this charade he's putting on.Fred placed Zara on the bed gently and used the blanket to cover her body to prevent her from catching a cold. They were outside there for so long, that he would have to get one of the maids to pull her clothes for her. But that will be later on, firs
The next morning Zara opened her eyes and yawned tiredly. She sat up and looked around her, she's the only person in this room. There's no one here with her, which means it must be late into the morning. Fred must have left for work, Zara smiled at the thought of Fred.She stood up and walked to the window, she opened the curtains and she was right. It's already late into the morning, she can see the maids running around and getting busy with something. Zara left to go to the bathroom, she passed by the mirror in the closet and paused."Wait a minute," She gasped as she was stunned. She's just realizing she's not putting on the gown from yesterday. She's now wearing a nightgown, come to think of it. She can't remember walking into this room all by herself last night. Fred must have brought her in here, and not only that. He even changed her clothes. That means he saw her, he saw everything."No! No!! That can't happen, he should have woken me up instead." Zara said with her eyes shut,
