CHAPTER 66

IRENE

Two arrogant men and it turned out that one had a gun.

James had always been the one with the gun and on the two occasions I had seen him using it , it had actually been on the same man.

Right at that moment, I could have sworn that my heart threatened to beat out of my chest at that moment as I could feel it raging inside of me like an earthquake.

The situation was getting more tense and as I looked around us at that moment , I could see that we were already creating a scene.

People were already out staring at the scene that was unfolding right In Front of them.

"James." I called his name more calmly. " I can explain, this is not what you think."

"What do I think?" He waves his gun heretically as the few people around us find a place for cover.

He looked at me viciously, giving me a mafia lord vibe.

Nate who was hiding a chuckle all this while ignored the fact that he had a gun and walked towards him.

"What are you doing?" I screamed my head out looking at the man.

    CHAPTER 68IRENEIrene starred in Marcus' direction as he poured out the drinks on the cups and handed one over to her. He had been surprised by her presence in his house and decided to host her appropriately, even though he was confused."Something would most likely have brought you over to my house. I ask again, what is it?" Irene couldn't understand why she had chosen Marcus of all people to trust with her secret. She was aware that he could easily tell other partners of James' company, but here she was risking it all."Marcus, I need you to let me in on a promise." Irene voiced out, in a clear and audible tone."And what would that be?" Marcus asked, sipping his glass of wine, while resting his backs on the couch."James caught me having an affair." Marcus almost choked on his drink at the revelation from Irene. He couldn't believe what his ears were processing at that moment. "Look, I know that sounds absolutely bad, but I need you to understand that I never did it intentionally.

    CHAPTER 69IRENEI stared up at the ceiling, uncontrollable tears falling from my eyes, when it fell from my eyes it was as the the torrent of a rain falling like from a dam shut down from yearsI hated being emotionally frantic in moments like this.Deep down in my mind I had hoped and prayed for the days where I would eventually be free from the trauma and pains of being in the sort of mess I was in at the moment but I guess it was part of a script played out by life or rather fate .The two took up spaces in my mind, spaces left open and vulnerable by the event that was unfolding.It was hard to get a lot of things out of my mind, it was harder because I was with this man.It was funny life was unfolding— one moment I was the one angry and furious about everything and in the space of days there was a shift—A massive shift between who was reaching to who now and it turned out that he was the settler…someone who had to deal with my excesses.The words from James still hurt my

    CHAPTER 70 IRENE I was still disturbed by the issue of divorce James had said, I was confused with myself, I honestly didn't know what to do at that moment. Maybe it was best I visit a therapist because I was beginning to feel depressed. I stood up from the bed and went into the bathroom, James didn't sleep in the same room with me again. I felt hurt by it and regretted everything I did. The feel of the water on my skin was cool, but it wasn't helping, it couldn't clear the frustration I was feeling right now. After taking my bathe, I wore a peach dress and a matching pair of peach heels. I applied a little makeup on my face and cross-checked myself before leaving home. ~~~~~~ At the hospital, The therapist was with a patient, so I had to wait until it was my turn. I took a seat around the reception, there was also another lady there who looked more depressed than I was. I ignored her and took my seat

    CHAPTER 71JAMESI paced back and forth in my private suite, the weight of impending divorce rested heavily on my shoulders. I was restless because tomorrow was the day that would mark the end of my marriage to Irene. I couldn’t help but feel a mix of anxiety and regret, questioning where it all went wrong. Thoughts of our shared history played on a loop in my mind, memories both beautiful and painful colliding in a whirlwind of emotions.Seeking solace, I made my way to the bar, the amber liquid in the crystal tumbler offering a temporary relief from the chaos within me. I took a long sip, the burn of the alcohol providing a momentary distraction. But no matter how much I drank, the pending divorce loomed over me, a constant reminder of the crumbling foundation of our relationship.Just as I drowned in my thoughts, the suite door swung open, and X, the private detective I had hired to dig up Irene’s secrets, entered with an air of purpose.“James, I’ve got a lead,” he announced; his

    CHAPTER 72JAMESIt all seemed confusing to me as I was trying to place what in the hell I was seeing, it was two things that just wouldn't fit in together, there was a child and at the same time the fact that she was rich.How in the hell was that possible?Deep down in my mind it only meant things either, X totally got it wrong or I had been lied to all this while.The whole scene was such a hard process that I lost my will to breathe for more than a few seconds."There is no way that child is mine." Irene said, fixing her gaze on me. "Yes, I am the one, but the child is out of it...Don't come to conclusions."It was hard to process everything that was happening.The more I thought about it, the more difficult it was for me to comprehend all that was happening.I glanced at my watch. The damn man was taking too long.My lungs expanded, and I took in a breath.It had been more than ten minutes since the judge left, I suspect he did so to give us a bit of time to talk things over and d

    CHAPTER 73IRENEWe walked out of the judge's office, divorce papers in hand, silence hanging in the air like an arrow sent to torture us. I found it amusing that signing some pieces of papers could end the relationship we've struggled to build up to this point. I felt sad and devasted The drive home seemed longer as we weren't speaking. James was extremely angry, he had been this way ever since he found out about my past and the child. I couldn't blame him for his actions neither could I talk to him at least, not now.I sat still in the car, my face out the window facing away from him as I pretended to admire nature that I have never really taken an interest in while James blasted loud countryside music in the car, it was unlike him.Now, we were home and after hearing his first words "There's nothing to think about, we're definitely getting that divorce," I felt the need and courage to explain myself. It wasn't as simple as he thought it was and lying wasn't deliberate.With my hear

    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 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
