CHAPTER 74JAMESIrene looked hopefully at me, I can see she was waiting with crossed fingers for me to say a word,but I refused to. Heck I don’t even know what to say instead I continue to look at her, my face giving nothing away.After finding out this much information, I was too stunted to talk. I was angry.I wasn’t angry at her, no. She is but the last cause of my anger. I am devastated at the fact that this whole ordeal was kept away from me for so long. The child wasn’t even her for goodness sake.I sighed loudly in frustration and abruptly got up on my feet and left the scene without a single word in exchange.I could hear her voice begging me to wait as I made my way toward my room. It hurt me to walk away from her but I think that was the best thing to do at that moment.I waltzed into my room and barged the door behind me, setting myself down at the bed.“All these years, all these fucking years I was kept in darkness. No one cared to tell me what was really going on. Nobod

CHAPTER 75IRENEI have crossed so many paths in this life, and all I can say is, nothing ever got me as beat up and full of guilt as this.I have watched James walk away from me earlier, nothing in his stance giving anything away. I don’t know what to feel or what to expect which ends up leaving me a nervous wreck.It wasn’t fair of me to keep away this piece of information from him but at the same time, I couldn’t just bring myself to spill it out.Even now, as I pace around the penthouse aimlessly, I still thought that perhaps I brought this up at the wrong time.Thinking about what I should have and shouldn’t have done is not going to save anything as I have the deed already being done and what is left is for James to pass out his judgment.After my unproductive movement around the large penthouse and my unsuccessful attempt to stop worrying, I make my way toward my bedroom, nearly bumping into a wall which for some reason, I didn’t realize earlier that it was there.I softly clos

CHAPTER 76JAMESI watched her every move immediately and her eyes were away from mine. I could tell she’s worried about everything and it killed me not to talk to her but I am still devastated. I wouldn’t want to address this issue while in such a state of mind.The thickness of the tension in the room could slit my throat but still, I choose not to speak. Instead I focus on my cell phone, smiling down at the game I was playing.Honestly Irene was the last person I would want to ignore but I have to, for her own good. I can tell we are both not ready to have this conversation. She has no idea what to say while I have a lot to lash out and it will only break her heart since she doesn’t have anything to defend herself so I think it will be best if we both pretend we both don’t exist as we go on with our daily lives. It will be hard but that is the best way out.I actually lost track of time as I was so engrossed on my phone and only remembered to check the time when Irene pushed her pla

CHAPTER 77IRENEThe car that stopped in the driveway indicated to me that Addie had just arrived. I excitedly walked out to welcome her. I have been alone in this house long enough and I longed for some sort of human interaction.Addie is a friend of mine I met during one of my sessions at the clinic. She’s bubbly and the type everyone will instantly become friends with. We chatted for a bit and exchanged contacts when I was about to leave, since then we have been talking.“Just in time” I beamed, meeting her halfway.“Hey Irene!” She exclaimed with happiness and hugged me tight, I genuinely returned the gesture.“You took your time” I complained, rolling my eyes playfully at her.“Yeah sorry about that. I had to stop by the clinic. You know how devastated the doctor gets when I miss my therapy. I wouldn’t want to deal with his annoying chatters so I stopped by” Addie tried to explain as we made our way into the house.“Yeah right, how is it going?” I inquired genuinely referring to

CHAPTER 78JAMESI do not know what to think of this or how to react to it in fact. Everything was so sudden and it left me shocked.“Addie in my house? Was she the friend Irene was speaking to on the phone? She ought to be but how on earth is she even able to find my wife and connect with her.?” These were the questions that continued ringing through my head as I stood there like a deer caught in the highlights, not knowing how to act.For some reason, I have a gut feeling that she somehow planned all these. “Was this the reason why she approached me in the clinic and requested we hang out”I do not want Irene to find out anything and for some unknown reason neither do I want Addie to sense the weird tension between Irene and I.Irene’s eyes were following us the entire time, moving from Addie’s form to mine and then back to Addie’s trying to point out what exactly is going on.I do not want her asking, which I know if I do not get hold of myself she is definitely going to so I clea

CHAPTER 79IRENEI gazed carefully at him from the spot I was standing, obstructed from his view by a wall. I observed him bring out his phone from his pocket and dial a number which immediately picked.Unfortunately I couldn’t make out who was talking or what the other person was saying but I pretty much cut them off with words of his own.“We need to talk” he pronounced and immediately hung up on the person.Something is not adding up. There is something up his sleeve I can’t make out but I am hell bent on finding out.His behavior when he saw Addie was totally out of character and even though I tried as much as I can to not react to any of their weird behavior, I very well know that something is up and there is something between the two of them which they both don’t want me to find out.And that not only surprised me but also picked at my curiosity because what the hell can be going on between my husband and supposed new friend.James is up to something I have no doubt in that but

CHAPTER 80JAMESIrene’s questions were starting to bug me but I tried as much as possible not to let anything slip. I know Irene like the back of my hand, she is very smart and adamant when something picks her interest and I can clearly tell my relationship with Addie did just that.Her curiosity wouldn’t let her rest until she figures out what she wants to know if she thinks there is something to know about and at the moment, she is beginning to think there is something.I tried as much as possible not to add to her suspicions as I ate away my breakfast still adamant that she stays away from Addie.I had to leave much earlier today because I have to meet up with Addie before going in for work and I can’t afford to be late again today, Marcus would make my ears bleed with complaints.I brushed past her seating form as I made my way outside, slid into my car and drove off to the agreed location.I need to make it clear to Addie that right now, I have a lot going on with my life and if

CHAPTER 81IRENE’S POVBefore James had the chance to read through my phone, I promptly picked it up and placed it on my lap, face down.I silently continue working through his bruises, attending to each wound with equal amounts of attention. I tried to cover up my trembling hand by working even faster.I had the chance to see who sent the message and to say that I was shocked would be an understatement. Seeing Frank’s number popping up on the face of my phone really struck a nerve.I thought I have grown past his era, I thought he no longer fazed me anymore but guess I was all deceiving myself, if my shaky hands mean anything.For some reason which I was so grateful for, James decided it is best to just shut up and end the conversation. We seem to be having a lot of unnecessary arguments lately which I am sure will soon come to an end.As much as it hurts me to admit, as much as it breaks my heart to even think about it, divorce is the best decision for us now, since not even therapy

CHAPTER 135JAMES.I wouldn't have been this worried if I didn't get her text that looked to be in distress, it was hardly twenty minutes that she walked out when suddenly I got a notification on my phone beeping in an emergency.She had been complaining about having weird calls and texts and it was Marcus' idea that we set the safety app up, so we would be able to track ourselves.I was still on the phone talking to Marcus and telling him about the sudden appearance of my mother when the notification came in.As I made my way down the stairs, as fast as I could an awful squeak cut through theair and somehow settled under my skin.I made my way out and saw that she was nowhere around the garage.My phone beeped again with a live location this time, slowly I could see the red round indicator moving away and hitting the main road.At first I thought she might have been going with my mother to heaven knows where,but looking around I saw her purse laying in the ground. My heart skipped ma

CHAPTER 134JAMESIt was still hard for me to believe everything that was happening, well that doesn't matter. I was prepared to make sure she spent the rest of her years behind bars for how she acted out toward me.I couldn't believe that I had been dragged into all of this and was naive all along.It was only two months since I got out of my accident and things had been almost perfect between us.It looked as though we've come to a mutual understanding in fixing anything that was going on between us.We just had to fight it — We just had to fight the fact that we were two people not willing to give into admitting flaws.It was hard to ignore her. Whenever she was near, an invisible string pulled me toward her in a way that we couldn't resist. Gradually we were building back what looked to be broken. It was the only sane thing at that moment as it was impossible for us to just get ourselves back immediately.The feel of having do close left a vibrating feeling behind with the promis

CHAPTER 133JAMESThe first thing I noticed when I fluttered my eyes open was the fact that I was in an empty room which I did not seem to recognise. I winced at the harsh light coming through the window and instantly closed my eyes back up.For some reason I couldn’t turn my head an inch. Even the thought of doing that made me wince in pain. A frustrated grumble escaped my throat at the fact that I was clearly clueless and oblivious of my surroundings and there was nothing I could do to change that except to wait for aid which didn't seem to be coming.Judging by the stiffness of the bed I laid on and the feeling of Iv on my hand, I came to the conclusion that I was in a hospital bed. If that didn’t confirm it then the terrible headache I was having and the pain I felt all over my body definitely did.“For how many hours have I been laying down here” I wondered in silence. Giving up on all attempts to get myself up and waiting for anyone to walk into the room. Judging by the light co

CHAPTER 132IRENEThere was just one wish in my heart and at the tip of my tongue. That all these was a dream and I will wake up back in my apartment but I knew it wasn’t. This was real, this was my reality and I will have to face it no matter how cruel it might seem.I sighed for the umpteenth time watching as the nurses did their job. I had been sitting here for the past hours, waiting for some form of miracle to happen and James to wake up, I just refused to let the fact that he was going to die into my heart. I just refused to agree that I am going to lose him forever.“No! Absolutely not!” I chanted to myself, shaking my head vigorously in the process. James is strong, he is going to survive this. There is no way in hell he was going to die after all he had gone through. It just wasn’t meant to be like this. James is not supposed to die. NoI stared down at his face, his calm and peaceful face and I realized just how much I missed him. How much I missed looking into his eyes and

CHAPTER 131IRENEMarcus stared at me intensely from his side of the table, swirling his spoon around the plate of food in front of him. His gaze seemed to be directed at me but in reality he was deep in thought with his hand supporting his chin.I was still a bit sick but it was not as severe as it used to be so I had no trouble just sitting down and watching him think, waiting for him to spit out whatever was taking up most of our time together.After a long moment of silence, he sighed heavily, dropping the spoon from his hand and turning to face me completely now. “Irene?” He called.I did not honor that with a reply, instead I just looked at him to tell him I was present and listening to whatever he had to say.“How are you doing?” He inquired. It might sound like it was just a normal question but I could feel all the underlying questions from just looking into his eyes. The unspoken question was actually “how are you dealing with everything? How is your sanity now that James is

CHAPTER 130IRENE“I’m tired of everything, I want James back and I can’t leave without him and I feel like I’m dying.” I said almost choking on my own tears.Marcus was so comforting as he was quiet as he let me rant all I want in his embrace. It’s been so long since I had someone to hug like this and now that I got someone I didn’t want to let go.“I want him back, I can’t let Addie have him forever because I won’t be able to live without him.” I said crying deeply as gently wiped off the tears from my eyes.I finally released myself from my self bondage grip and it was then I remembered the blood of Marcus' body.He looked at me worriedly which made me shiver as I had a very unusual feeling inside of me.“W…what happened to you? Why are you covered up in blood?” I asked, looking at his hands which were covered in blood. His white shirt was also covered in blood but I couldn’t spot any injury on his body.“It’s not me, something happened to.” He said calmly holding my two hands like

CHAPTER 129IRENEI felt like screaming my lungs out to ease the intense pain I was currently feeling in my head but looking at it logically, screaming might only increase the pain so I refrained from doing so.Instead, I squirted my eyes to reduce the amount of light entering into it which in some weird way is only adding to my pain. My heart kept pounding in a way it had never done before, at least not when I am fine.I clutched onto my duvet for dear life, still shivering and gritting my teeth despite the fact that I was under layers of bed coverings. My throat felt so dry and the thought of passing anything through it at the moment made me gagged, but considering the fact that I had vomited more than I could count during this short period nothing came out but air.Overall I felt terrible and after a long moment of denial and thinking it was probably stress which would be gone if I just rested, I finally reached the conclusion that I was sick and I would need to see a doctor in or

CHAPTER 128IRENEI looked around lazily and picked up my phone to check the time. It was already evening and I groaned wishing I woke up the next morning.Now I had to Dave the burden of actually being in this life which was enough of a burden on its own. Everyday I wished it was the next because I wanted to get over everything.By now James would have been engaged and my heart ached as I thought about it. I sniffled hard because I didn’t want to start crying again.The love of my life was getting engaged to someone and it wasn’t me, he was the only one I wanted and now he belonged to someone else and there was nothing I could do.It became hard for me to stop myself from crying so I undressed and went into the shower.I turned on the warm water and gently scrubbed my body like there was no life left in me again.Everything felt so slow and I felt there was no use for anything again, it was all useless now.I got out of the shower and got dressed into a big top and walked out of the

CHAPTER 127JAMESI looked around and the sight of everyone cheering all in my name was so disgusting to me, especially since I didn’t want any of this to begin with.Everyone who walked past me would wave at me but Ignored most of them anyway as I was trying my best not to flare up because I was very upset.My sister noticed this from across the room and our eyes met, I looked away but I knew she was still going to come over anyways.She smiled at me and walked gently approaching me.“Why aren’t you putting on a smile? It’s your happy day. You should be happier than anyone here.” My sister said gently patting my suit like she was about to dust something off it.I looked around the crowd in the area and now the whole hall was jeering with noises from each corner of the hall.“When is this going to end?” I scoffed with a big frown pasted on my face.I didn’t even care about all of these arrangements and all the guests here because I was not happy with any of it.“Look over at your beau
