Fiona PovAfter having dinner Mr Walton, ma’am Sarah and I all moved to the living room to have dessert when we heard the horn of a car outside as ma’am Sarah rushed towards the window to have a look if it was Andrew.She did tell me he was on his way but I didn’t expect he would arrive this early. “He’s here honey. Andrew is finally back.” She said and walked back to join us on the sofa.“He had better explain why he went on a one week busy trip without his wife.” “I was fine with it, dad. You don’t have to scold him for my sake.”“I’m really mad at him but that can wait anyway. Let's just focus on that little witch who is back.” “I’m confident Andrew won’t allow her to get away this time around.” Mr Walton affirmed.Ma’am Sarah told her husband about Naomi’s return which he didn’t really react seriously to due to the doctor’s instructions not to take things to the heart.Few minutes later, the door opened as Andrew stepped in, looking more handsome than ever ,which make me to hav
Fiona PovI felt my tender heart broken into pieces as I felt really numb with my throat dried from crying aloud as only tears streamed down my cheeks.Do I really deserve all those words and hate filled in by him just for someone else's mistake? I really wish he can see through my heart and understand I am nothing like Naomi.I really feel like giving up trying to change his attitude but I can’t back down now because I know he has some affection for me in his heart even if he doesn’t show it.I won’t give up because it’s not in my personality to see that and also I really want to create a friendly bond with him before we get divorced.I know it will be really hard but I gotta try my best and see where it leads me to.I wiped off my tears and walked towards the bed to fix his clothes inside the wardrobe.I shut the door before hopping on the bed and crying myself out before slowly drifting off to sleep.I woke up to feel warm hands wrapped around my waist and light snoring of a mascul
Fiona PovI stepped out of the bathroom with just a towel tied around my chest and found Andrew about to leave the room.I was hoping he was going to walk out but he turned around and saw me in the towel and kept staring intensely at me.I could tell his eyes glittered a bit before he looked away and opened the door to leave.“Don’t stay too long or you'll have to find your way to the mansion all alone.” I uttered and stepped out, shutting the door behind him.I know he felt really shocked to see me in just a towel. I wasn’t expecting him to be in the room for that long but thank god I didn’t expose all myself to him.I can’t really put the emotion I saw on his face but one thing is for sure, he has a soft side and I need to know what it is if I really want to change him.I walked over to the wardrobe and took out a white off shoulder short gown and a pantie before heading to the bed.I combed and styled my hair afterwards before drying my body and applying lotion before putting on th
Fiona PovAfter some couple of seconds, we both pulled away as I regained my balance once again.“Always watch where you are going.” He stated.I was totally shy and embarrassed at the awkward situation as we both stared into each other’s eyes like we were searching for something.“Thanks.” I mumbled as he didn’t say a word and proceeded to the upstairs while I trailed behind him staring at his back view.I’m really happy to see he’s concerned about me after all and I thought he will allow me to fall from the stairs. I was just thinking about him and wasn’t even looking at the direction I was going until I lost my balance.I was lucky he was close by to catch me, if it wasn't the case, I would have broken my ankle or more.I walked over to my bedroom and laid on the bed as the thoughts of the incident rushed into my mind.I’m beginning to fall in love with Andrew. Learning why his attitude is what it is due to Naomi’s attitude, it only made me have a soft spot for me.I know he’s real
ANDREW POV“Do you really have a death wish?” I glared at him.“I must say, she’s the sweetest and above all the perfect woman any man can ever wish for.” “How dare you say those words right to my face about my wife?” I fumed.I never expected this from Mikey. How could he try to get close to her when he knows she’s my wife?“Why are you all worked up, man? You did make it clear she’s of no importance to you so I had to come in between and become friends with her.”“Mikey, you’re really making me lose my cool right now. How could you get close to my wife in my absence? If you ain’t my buddy and cousin, I would have…” I stopped when his lips diverted into a grin.“This really shows you care about her after all. But I see no reason why you should be this worried when she doesn’t mean anything to you or is there something important you’re not telling me about your relationship?”“I don’t have anything to say to you.”“Is that so?” “I don’t care about her but as long as we’re both marri
ANDREW POVI was more than shocked to find them together in the same restaurant where I had the business meeting.It's all clear Mike planned it so he could prove to me he has gotten close to her.I really can’t believe she also agreed to go with him. This is really annoying and crazy. I don’t know why I am really concerned about them sticking together when it’s actually not my business.I think I do need to see a therapist and discuss the issue with her.“We will take our leave then. Will you still make it to the ball party?” One of the business tycoons asked.“I will be there, Mr Caver.” I affirmed with a smile.“That will be good. You can also bring your wife along.” The second man stated. “I will try.”“Alright. We shall take our leave now.” The first man said as they both walked out of the restaurant.“Shall we leave, sir?” Frank gestured the way as I stepped out of the restaurant while he trailed after me.We got into the car and headed to another company where I was havi
EVENINGFiona PovI was in the living room watching a movie on TV when Andrew showed up at the door.“Good evening.” I greeted him but he ignored me totally and headed towards the stairs like I wasn’t there.I was expecting the cold attitude anyway since we are yet to get along and accept each other as a couple.I focused on the movie I was watching and after some minutes one of the maids showed up.“Dinner is ready, ma’am.” She announced.“Alright. I’ll be right there. Let me go call my husband.”“Okay ma’am.” She replied and strolled back in the direction of the kitchen.I got on my feet and headed to the stairs to call Andrew for dinner and also explain myself to him even though Mike told me not to worry about explaining myself.I just felt the need to come out clean and tell him there is nothing going on between his cousin and I.I approached his doorstep but couldn’t bring myself to knock on the door without feeling guilty of how he saw me with Mike.He must be thinking I am chea
FIVE DAYS LATERFIONA POVAndrew’s attitude has been the same in the last few days and there’s not a single day I don’t get the cold treatment from him.He never even makes an attempt to talk to me, talk more of having me around.I remember two days back, when I found him seated in the living room working with his laptop, I decided to join him but he left immediately I took a seat right next to him.I know it might sound weird to him but I was only trying to create a wife to husband bond. Ever since then he doesn’t want to stay around me.However, that didn’t stop Mike from coming over to the mansion to spend some time with me along with Katie who is already crushing hard on Mike and I think Mike also likes her because whenever he comes he is always asking about her.She told me how she feels whenever he’s around her which is exactly how I feel when Andrew is around me as well.I don’t know how I fell for him even when his attitude towards me isn’t what another woman can bear but I st
