ALEXA'S POV ." Are you afraid , don't mind about Eva my daughter , it's good for her to play with kids closer to her age , l know you big at heart " , Just as my body was trembling , Michelle noticed it and murmured with a sweet smile on her face. " Yes ..um thanks for the compliment " , inwardly knowing it that Adrian was a few feet away from me , l honestly couldn't think of a straight answer .In all the thoughts l had in my mind , meeting him again was the last thought on my mind . I had a thought that after having sex with him , l won't see him again but then the world wasn't fair to me . I was now scared to hell , if l don't get away right now he might tell Mark that l slept with him . " Ah ! anyway I would like you to meet someone ,he is the new CEO , oh gosh sorry l have forgeten your name , it has been really a longtime and l have to introduce you to him " , She muttered and at that I felt like asking for the ground to open up and swallow me . I didn't want to meet whoever
ALEXA'S POV ." Please God don't. , I can't do this . I can't talk about what happened , Please don't , don't make me talk about what we did , what l did it was a mistake , As you saw am Mark's wife ,.... l hate myself for what I did " ,. As soon as he lifted his gaze from Ivan and turned it to me. , I instantly began to stammer but my voice broke at the end . I honestly hated myself for what I did but still it felt good , that was the best moment in my life . With Mark somewhere , l knew it that l shouldn't be in this room alone with him but my body parts were frozen up . I needed him again ." Iisten as a man , I do get it , I do get you , you hate yourself for what happened but you can't say that it didn't mean anything to you ,l know you not that kind of women who sleep around with different men and yet they are married.... " , He trailed off in mid sentence before he ran his hands through his dirty blonde hair with his deep blue eyes staring in to my emerald green eyes. ." I kno
ALEXA'S POV ." Who is that mummy , does he like football ? " , My smile i'mmediately vanished from my face when I heard him ask that . I had been concentrated on him that l forgot that Adrian was also still around . ". Um Ivan he is ..... " , . ". I like playing football , can you play with me " , Just as I began stuttering , Ivan turned his attention to Adrian and when he smiled at him , he continued with excitement glittering in his dark brown eyes ." My mum doesn't know how to play it and my dad doesn't like me very much to play with me " , When none of us said anything , he again added . At his words , l felt my heart beat more faster . The fact that Ivan at his young age said that Mark doesn't love him shattered my world . It was now evident that even the little kids were getting effected by Mark's not being around at home . I wasn't that surprised because after him refusing to join them at the dinner , it disappointed both him and Chrissy . Jessica was fine , she had no time
ALEXA'S POV ." There you are Alexa , how are you darling , Mark told me that the kids were playing that is why you were late but l didn't believe that even one bit " , Just as l was chatting with my daughters , Mey , Henry's wife walked over to us . At her words , l smiled softly while turning my attention to her .The amazing thing about Mey was that she saw through Mark's lies . Just like Henry her husband , they have always been on my side from the beginning. She was was a bit old and my kids took her like there second mom though we didn't often visit her . ". Chrissy found the paint and well it got over her dress so Mark had a meltdown and told us to come on our own , l hope we haven't messed up anything for you " , l murmured at last .As an old lady , she gave me a knowing look . ". You can do so much better sweetheart , I don't think you know your worth " , She advised and l only shook my head . if only she knew what l was passing through , she wouldn't have said that . " Dinn
ALEXA'S POV. ." Can we play the football now , l have eaten all the horrible vegetables mummy " , Just as we were done with the dinner , Ivan quickly ran to me and whined . ". No l told you , this is the reason why we shouldn't have brought them " , Before I could respond to him , out of the blue Mark intervened in a harsh voice . ". But dad " , Ivan muttered in a baby like tone . " No , this isn't a time to play Ivan , when you are the girls are done eating go and sit down on the couch and don't touch anything " , He still responded harshly to him . At his words l felt myself fuming. This is the reason why the kids were now hating him . He had no fatherly tone in his mouth .It was even ridiculous , he was expecting the kids to sit down . At their age they can't just sit down and do nothing especially when they have just eaten . " Mark, kids can't just sit down and yet they have just eaten ", He shifted his hostile glare from the kids to me as soon as l murmured that." Don't be st
ADRIAN'S POV." I wonder whether she knows it too that Mark that idiot is fucking Harriet , most of the people know it " , Justin hissed out . " I really thought at first that , that man has sense , women should be treated with love and care " , l murmured while shaking my head . " I have feeling that woman is a golddigger , no woman can live with an idiot like him " , l felt anger build up in my body at his words . " She didn't look like one " , Just like business men , l acted professionally and played it cool . " You do know that even if you say anything , she isn't going to leave him , they never do apart , no matter what , she is comfortable with his behavior , l think she doesn't get hurt " ,He murmured and l swung my head around and glared at Him . I was trying to control myself but he was still pissing me off ." Don't Justin , don't push me on this , don't jump in to my life like you Know the best " , I spoke out before gulping down the wine . I was about to lose my shit an
ALEXA'S POV ." Mummy look at me ", Just as I was lost in my thoughts , Ivan all of the sudden shouted loudly at me . On raising up my eyes ,. I shockingly saw Adrian holding him on his shoulders . This was a bit weird for heaven's sake . The only thing I know is that billionaires take themselves as gods but he acted strange . " Wow look how tall you are " , l lastly smiled at Ivan who was laughing like crazy . He was so excited . This is what he always wanted but then Mark had no time for him . I also inwardly felt happy , Adrian was everything l needed but it was impossible to get him .I kept staring at him for a moment with lust and desire for him but soon enough my smile i'mmediately vanished from my face when my eyes fall on Mark . He was walking out of the house and heading in our direction . Moods ruined , l looked away while hoping that he wasn't coming for me . " Alexa a word please " , Things didn't go according to my wish and his harsh words startled me . The world wasn't
" why can't you be like Cassie ? " , As soon as I heard him ask that , l raised up my head and glared at him angrily . " Harriet again ! , I have seriously had enough with you , all you do is to treat me like shit and praise others , I'm meant to be the mother of your kids , your wife but that's not what am I , l have tried so hard Mark to be the person you want " , l have never had the guts to talk boldly to him but at this time it was worse . I was tired of being taken as a slave . " I'm done , l can't do this , l can't have you treat me like this , the kids are noticing the way you treating me , it's not right , you need to change or l'm going to get the kids and leave you " , I added but at that , his face immediately went red with anger . If looks could kill , l would have been a thousand feet down in the ground . " God ! You just foolish , Do you think that you can live without me , let's face it , you can't and you will never leave me " , He hissed out while glaring harshly a
