Married for Revenge Chapter 36
Luke's POVEver since the last time, all my intentions of talking to Scarlett have been to no avail. I woke up from sleep one morning and tried to touch her, "leave me alone!" She yelled, almost screaming and it startled me. "Baby," I tried to kiss her on her back from where I was and she slapped my hand off her skin, jerking off the bed. She left the room and I decided not to chase after her again, the week passed and I resumed work at the warehouse, as usual and Scarlett still gave me cold feet.I would wake up in the morning, likewise she exchanged cold pleasantries with me and the next thing she would do is make my breakfast and still not allow me to touch her. Why? I wanted to ask her one morning. What is wrong with drinking beer at the bar?"You can get angry all you want, I will be going there often," were the words I wanted to use on her, to tell her how much I love the bar already, and the ladies that stripped and danced at the pool. I wanted to make her jealous and threa

Ethan's POVThe house was warm, as usual when I woke up to prepare for the day's work. Meetings were to be held that day and I hurried into the bathroom to wash my mouth, first of all. I was out after minutes to check for updates on my cell phone.I was in the bathroom again to have my bath, Amelia tossed on the bed and I heard a sound, guessing she had left to make breakfast. I was prepared for work earlier than usual, there was a meeting for the day. A company on the same page and rank with mine was visiting for a brief meeting and discussion on partnership and I was too excited to eat, but I had to."Thank you," I told Pamela who was present at the scene before leaving with my briefcase. Amelia was in the kitchen, rinsing the dishes, I guess. I hopped in my car, asked the driver to move the machine in the direction of the office while I reminisced about the meeting with the company I have always wished to partner with all my life, an aim my late Father did not achieve due to inst

Amelia's POV"Mr. Robert had an accident," Ethan said to Pamela and I when he got back from work. He had honked severally at the gate before the gateman did his job, maybe because we didn't expect him at such an early time.Pamela and I were outside, sipping juice from the glasses we held while talking randomly when we saw his car drive in. His gloomy face made us abandon the small treat we were having, Pamela took the briefcase from him, following us behind. "Who is Mr. Robert?" Pamela asked on our way into the house."A man that works in the company," I explained while we got closer to the main entrance door. His hair was messy, his hair line, too. He arrived at an earlier time than normal and I was scared that the company he had a meeting with had rejected his offer. "No," he shook his head when I asked him, telling me it was Mr. Robert, that is the reason behind his gloomy face. It was a relief, I thought, realising how hurt I will get if something ever happens to his compa

Ethan's POVI walked into the bedroom to see Amelia sleeping, she wore a bonnet over her head, but the piece of clothing fell off her head and I saw she had changed her look, something I was waiting for her to do these past few weeks. The fragrance from her hair smelt nice and I bent down to take my time in perceiving the nice smell and admired her new look. She was sleeping, after all and there are no CCtvs in the room, she will never know I looked at her for too long.Her body was warm and the temperature, unusual. I guessed she spent too much time under the sun as she had become used to the lifestyle of rich people. I was by her side the next moment, drifting to my own sleep, the meeting was finally held and the company and mine finally had a deal. I had come back to share my news with Amelia to see her asleep with a warm temperature. I changed my mind. I will tell her the next morning when I wake up before leaving for the office after my breakfast. Pamela had done a good j

Ethan's POV"Why do you ask?" It was a Sunday, the most anticipated new week began and the three of us all spent time together that day. I joined the ladies to be in church, driving them to and fro from the church because my driver is away and the church was not a long distance from the house, unlike my office. We returned after the service to have our Sunday meal.Pamela asked if we needed something before leaving for her room to have a nap. Amelia and I shook our heads before she left. It was the perfect time to ask all the questions I had running about in my head, especially the ones regarding her favourite country and business preference. I rehearsed all the lines in my head, making up the right way to pop them. "Amelia?" I called, I walked from the kitchen to the living room to join her with a glass of juice in my hand and my phone that was unplugged moments ago. "Uhm?" She answered, She looked away from the screen of the television, her eyes fixed on my face. "I want to

Luke's POVAs usual, the house was cold, cold enough to make plenty of ice. Scarlett still avoided me and I finally let her be, she is not the only woman I know, after all.I am a handsome man and I know of so many ladies that are dying and will do anything at all to have me be with them, a lady like Isabella.After the night of the refusal, I tried my luck again, severally, hoping Scarlett will have a change of heart. Her heart became stronger and she yelled greatly at me the next day. It was of no use to me, her tantrums will only make things worse for her, not me. She is yet to find out the type of man that I am. It was another evening and I was prepared to be in the bar, as usual. Ever since the treatment from Scarlett, the bar has been my very solace, although I don't come back home drunk after visiting the bar, I come back home with cigarette smell and its smoke oozing from my mouth and Scarlett said nothing about it.She went on with her duties of serving me my food, alway
Married for Revenge Chapter 42
Luke's POVAnother week arrived and Scarlett still said nothing to me.I woke up to remind myself of how busy the day and week will be for me and the men at work, excluding the Boss whose job is to give his orders and smoke from the pipe he always held, watching us do according to his bidding. "Good morning," I greeted Scarlett when I jumped out of bed. She simply nodded, as usual, watching me go into the bathroom. I scrubbed my body than the normal way, fear tickled me and I imagined the warehouse getting screwed up, maybe someday. "Nothing lasts forever, it just takes some time," people would say, including Boss, owner of the warehouse."Some day, we will get caught and sleep in jail, maybe for the rest of our lives," I remembered his words to me when I began working for him. "But, then, strive hard for that day not to come," he told me again before handing the document of membership to me. I didn't have to hear Boss's words before being told that I would get caught, someday.It c

Scarlett's POVI had guessed right that Luke will make it to the house on time, very much on time than the normal evening time or maybe at night. I have missed him so much and it dawned on me that the punishment I served him had become too much already, I was not only punishing Luke, I was punishing myself.He left for his place of work by morning. I resorted to allowing him to make his breakfast by himself with my own intentions of making something for him to eat before he gets back. He greeted me for the past week in the mornings and the least I did was nod my head, what kind of a wife greets her husband like that? It was almost evening time when I heard his car drive into the house, I took one peep at the window and I saw his car drive right into the house. The butterflies in my stomach resumed its game of love and I ran into the kitchen, adjusting my outfit and ran out again with a diner pot, filled to the brim with well-flavoured, well prepared food. I stood beside one of the

Ethan's POV I slept soundly that hour, almost dreaming when a hand hit me. At first, I thought it was in my dream, or a mis-thought. The hand butted me again, and I jumped up on the bed. “What is it?” I asked Amelia, she held onto the edge of the bed, gasping for air. “What is it?!” I asked again, holding her hand. “I think the babies are coming.” I thought I didn't hear the words clearly until she repeated them again, Pamela's name filled my mouth the next moment. I was more confused and hurt when Amelia burst out crying, it was in the early hours of the morning and definitely not the right time for this. Whatever it is that she felt must have hurt, deeply. “Pamela!” I screamed the young lady's name again, higher than the former pitch and tone. I heard the door of her room creak, and footsteps were heard. She was on her way. “What is it?” The confused woman asked, rushing to Amelia's side. “I think the babies are coming, uncle.” Of course, I know. The only thing I d
