Fatal Marriage Chapter 16
Nera walked the hospital corridor, her heart heavy. It would have been easier for her if Marcus was with her and the doctor did the tests on them both, which would have removed the burden of her telling him.She did not know how to tell him the good news that would be bad news to him. She grabbed her phone out of her bag, checking for any messages or missed calls from him, but she found none. She had expected him to call her for any progress, but there was nothing.She was about to call the driver when a familiar voice got her attention. She looked up, and her eyes landed on Nicole. She was yelling at Greg, who looked like he was wishing for the ground to swallow him.But it was Nicole's large pregnancy that piqued Nera's interest. She was heavily pregnant and had put on a lot of weight.Nicole raised her gaze to meet Nera's piercing gaze fixed on her belly. She smiled, holding her belly tighter. Greg lifted his eyes and noticed Nera's flaming eyes.Nicole quickly grabbed Greg's han
Fatal Marriage Chapter 17
Nera awoke angry; they needed to go to the hospital to find out if something was wrong with her husband as a couple, but he went on a stupid business trip.She screamed in frustration because the anxiety was killing her. She was eager to become pregnant after seeing Nicole pregnant, but she couldn't if she had no idea whether her husband was capable of fathering a child or not.It had to be her age, she reasoned. He was too old. It explained why he was addicted to the stupid sex drugs or why he was afraid to take the test.She realized that her perfect marriage was not so perfect after all. She grabbed her phone, furious, and attempted to call him, but could not get through.She threw the phone to the other side of the bed, frustrated. She placed her hand on her tummy, wondering how it felt to be pregnant.Memories of her and Nicole planning to get pregnant at the same time while they were married popped up in her head.Thinking about Nicole, she grabbed her phone, and for the first t
Fatal Marriage Chapter 18
Nera couldn't contain her joy as she kissed her husband with tears of joy. They were both fine; there was nothing wrong with them. Her mind kept repeating the statement to herself.Marcus tried to stop her, but she was too excited. The news restored all hope for her having a baby, which had been completely shattered the day before."Would you mind relaxing, Nara, and allowing the doctor to explain?" Marcus held her hands while his gaze was fixed on the doctor, who was clearly uncomfortable.Nera finally came to a halt and smiled, a little embarrassed because she had disrupted the doctor. She had not even allowed the woman to explain. There were a lot of questions now banging in her head. If they were both fine, then why was she not getting pregnant?"So doctor, what seems to be the problem if we are both okay?" Marcus asked the question that she was also itching to ask. She held on to Marcus's hand as the doctor scratched the corner of her lip."As I previously explained to your wife,
Fatal Marriage Chapter 19
Nera sat on the bed with her aching body, staring at her negative pregnancy test. Four months of hormone treatment, daily rough sex, and no sex pills but the tests were still negative.She felt cursed; as if someone was punishing her for a crime she did not commit. She wanted to cry, but there were no tears because they had all dried up from the negative tests she had to take every month.She had no idea what was going on; even the doctor was unable to provide adequate answers.Marcus stood in the room, watching his wife wallow in self-pity; they had been without a child for almost two years, and the town was already gossiping. And with most of them being backward like him, they all thought she was the problem.Even his workers and servants were talking, and he was forced to fire one of them who had the audacity to gossip about his wife in his presence.Four months passed without him coming up with a solution, and seeing his wife depressed was also killing him.The idea of injecting f

As Frank debated whether to punch the man in the face or simply leave, the table fell silent. A second ago, he was very excited to meet a relative from his father's side, but it appeared that the man had bad intentions.He stood up politely. "I'm sorry; I'm sure your deal is good, but I'm not the right person for it," he said."Sit down; I'm not finished yet," Marcus replied. He was ecstatic because Frank had passed the test. Most young men would be glued to their seats, eager to learn how much work was involved or what the job entailed.He had purposefully sounded spiteful in order to put Frank's dignity to the test. It was the first time the two were meeting, and catching up should have been the order of things."With due respect, I am a very busy man," Frank replied, turning around."The deal involves two million dollars," Marcus announced.Frank froze, swallowing hard. Two million dollars would make him an instant millionaire. The man appeared to be richer than he looked.But as t
Fatal Marriage Chapter 21
Marcus helped his wife get the much-needed shower and personally went to the kitchen and cooked her a meal. He never liked cooking, not even for himself, but he made an exception.He brought the suffering on his wife, and that was a fact that he was aware of. So it was his duty to at least cheer her up. He could see she was slowly slipping into depression, and if he did not do anything to cheer her up, he was going to end up with a depressed wife.Nera barely touched the food; she did not feel like eating but because of Marcus's effort she tried forcing herself."I have an idea," Marcus suggested.Nera raised her eyes, but she did not say a single word."Let's go on vacation; maybe a change of environment is what we need," he suggested.Nera only looked away, uninterested, as she put her food away.Marcus grabbed her hands and said, "Listen, I know you have given up.""Maybe we should just adopt," Nera replied abruptly, without thinking. For days, she had been thinking of just walking
Fatal Marriage Chapter 22
An hour passed with Frank and his mother waiting impatiently. The stranger before they thanked him for everything. He had excused himself and called his boss for an update.Marcus and Nera arrived in Alabama the second he called, forcing Marcus to run to the bathroom to take the call."What do you mean a bull attacked him?" Marcus yelled. The plan was to run the boy over with a car."Sir, I was not sure I would not kill him with my car, and a car accident was going to be very dangerous," he explained."Are you stupid? What if that bull tore him apart?" Marcus yelled furiously. His plan was not going as planned."How is the boy?""Not good; they need to do surgery right away," he replied.Marcus began panicking; he could not believe the stupidity of the man that he just hired. If the boy died, he was going to kiss his plan goodbye. He needed to act fast; there was no way Frank would immediately go running to him.He walked back to Nera, desperation evident on his face."Is there a pro
Fatal Marriage Chapter 23
Marcus walked away without care; it wasn't like he was obliged to help the boy even if he had caused the accident, but Frank needed to know that good morals were never going to get him out of poverty.Being good had nothing to do with success; he admired the boy's good character, but he had to drop it for this one act, save his brother, and live happily ever after with loads of cash.Frank was left standing, fists clenched, beating himself for asking the stupid man for a loan. It took all his pride away; he even wanted to get on his knees if it had gone that far, but the wicked man only wanted him to impregnate his wife in exchange for the money.He chuckled in disbelief; it was the twenty-first century, and he had never met such a backward man.His phone rang, jolting him out of his shock. It was his mother, crying on the other end of the line."Frank, they are saying I can't sell the house and the farm," she cried out."What?""I contacted a lawyer, and they said I need Angel's fath
