Paul squeezed Nancy’s wrists until she cried out in pain. “How dare you talk to me like that?” he hissed.
“I’ll talk to you any way I please,” Nancy replied. She was in a tremendous amount of pain, but she refused to be cowed. “You aren’t even half the man that Noah is,” she continued. “At least he knows how to respect people. He knows what it means to have good manners. You, on the other hand, are a Charlatan and a cad. If I could go back in time, I would not marry you. In fact, I would stay as far away from you as I possibly could! Anyway, we’re both single, right? And we both have significant others. You have Michelle, so why can’t I have Noah? Don’t I deserve to be happy?”
When Paul heard that, he wanted to clutch her neck and shake the life out of her.
“Can’t we just go our separate ways?” Nancy asked. “I ca
Paul stared at Nancy for a long time without speaking. Finally, after a long time had passed, he took out a brassiere from his pocket and said, “Raise your hands.” Nancy gave him a nervous look and asked, “Why?” “Don’t ask why,” Paul replied. “If you don’t want me to take Clark away, then be obedient.” Although Nancy did not know what he was going to do, she felt like she had to do what he said. She raised her hands, and he put her bra on for her. Then he took out a pair of panties and helped her step into them. This made her feel weird. It was the first time that he had dressed her, and not only did it make her feel like a helpless child, but it also made her feel like he had a hidden agenda. Once Nancy’s underwear was on, Paul helped her put on the clothes that Noah had brought with him. Paul was very satisfied
Eric squinted at Crystal, but he kept his peace. He knew that, because of the way Paul treated Nancy, her impression of Michelle would be bad no matter what he said. Now, he assumed that it would be impossible to build a case against Crystal’s prejudice with the way things were. He picked up a cigarette, lit it, and took a couple of casual drag. He blew the smoke into the room, and when he saw Crystal frown, he realized that she did not like the smell of cigarette smoke. He smiled and said, “If you don’t like the smell, I can put it out…” Crystal gave him a curious look. “So, if I do not want you to smoke, you won’t?” she asked. “Is that correct?” “It is,” Eric replied. “I told you that if you agreed to marry me, I would do whatever you want.” “Then I want you to qui
Crystal met Nancy and Paul at the bottom of the stairs. The fact that Nancy’s face was pale and that she still was not walking bothered, Crystal. “What’s wrong?” she asked. “Are you unable to walk?” Nancy shook her head and said, “I am fine. I just feel a little dizzy.” “Okay. Good.” Crystal looked at Noah, thanked him, and said, “Put her on the sofa.” Noah cautiously put Nancy on the sofa, and he took a deep breath as he looked at her. “She’ll be fine,” he said. “She just needs some rest.” Nancy looked around the room but did not see her son. “Where is Clark?” she asked in dismay. “I didn’t see him,” Crystal admitted. “I looked around, but I couldn’t find him...” Nancy frowned and called one of the servants into the liv
Before Noah could hug Nancy, Clark grabbed her hand and shook it. “Mom,” he said. Do you want uncle Noah to hug you? Why do you want him to hug you? Can’t you hug me instead?” The boy was jealous, but because he had an immature face, he looked lovely. Nancy gently squeezed his small face. “I feel a little uncomfortable,” she explained patiently. “So, I don’t have enough strength to hug you anymore. When I recover, I can hold you again. Is that okay?” “I can hug you, Mom.” After speaking, Clark reached out his hands to hug Nancy. He stretched his arms as far around her as he could and buried his face in her stomach. Nancy was amused. She kissed her son on the cheek and said, “Clark, when you grow up when I am too old to walk, will you help me?” She hoped that Clark would grow up quickly. Once he was a real man, no
Crystal was enraged by the things that Paul was saying to Nancy, and she was unwilling to let it continue. She stood up and said, “Paul Burnett, this has nothing to do with Nancy. It’s just a misunderstanding, so please don’t make such a fuss.” Paul rolled his eyes at Eric and chuckled. “Look after your wife,” he said. “She’s getting more and more arrogant every day. Aren’t you going to put her in her place?” “I can’t,” Eric replied. “I have a weakness for my wife.” “Are you willing to lose a friend over a woman?” Paul asked. “I don’t know,” Eric snapped. “Are you?” The two bickered like kids until Michelle finally interrupted them. She turned to Paul and said, “Forget it. They are our guests, and I don’t want the atmosp
Eric was used to smoking after a meal, so he had not even thought about his promise to Crystal when he sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette. Crystal was infuriated, though. She marched over to him and said, “You said that you would quit smoking for me. It seems that men take their vows about as seriously as they do their farts.” As soon as Crystal began speaking, Eric remembered his vow, and he immediately snuffed out the cigarette. He threw it in the ashtray and said, “I forgot. I am sorry. This isn’t easy. I am trying, but you will have to be patient with me. I am doing my best…” “This is your best!” Crystal scoffed. Now that she had him in a corner, she asked him if he had given Michelle the bracelet that she wore on her wrist. “I know you did,” she insisted.
That night, Crystal had to share a bed with Nancy and Clark. Before going to bed, though, she decided to have a bath. When she was finished, she went into the adjoining room to get the hairdryer. Nancy had been reading a bedtime story to Clark, and he had just fallen asleep. As Crystal entered the room, someone knocked on the door, and she rushed over to open it before the noise woke the baby. She thought that the intrusion was from one of the servants, so she was surprised to find Michelle standing in the hallway. She had an absent look on her face, and she was wearing a black lace nightgown. The nightgown was translucent, and her private parts could vaguely be seen, giving her a look that was sexy and bold. “What’s wrong?” Crystal asked. Michelle pouted and said, “I’m looking for Miss Carter.”
Nancy’s bottom lip was trembling, and tears began to well up in her eyes. She looked up at Michelle. “What did I ever do to you?” she cried. “Why do you have to keep torturing us? Do you even have any conscience? And if you hurt my child, aren’t you afraid that Karma will come for you if you have any children?” “Karma!” Michelle scoffed. “That bitch has already taken her pound of flesh from me, so I am not afraid of her anymore. After all, when my child was taken from me, I had done nothing to deserve it!” For the first time, Nancy saw a c*ck in Michelle’s armor. There were tears in the other that she had been severely hurt in the past. She thought - This is probably the reason why she doesn’t like kids and why she abuses Clark. But who could have hurt her so badly? She did
