Bethel's Pov:
I heard a loud bang in my head as mum's words hit at me.
What?
I scoffed and adjusted properly to look at her.
"Mum...what are you talking about?" I asked, confused.
"You know what I'm talking about, Bethel. Don't make me repeat myself. I want you and Ryan to get intimate tonight" she replied, placing her hands on the sterling.
"But..how? How's that possible? How do you expect us to get intimate when he doesn't want to?" I pondered.
"Well, make him want to".
"You...You want me to seduce him?"
"Yes, Bethel; you need to because this is damn too important to me".
"Mum, I...I...I don't know anything about it" I stuttered, batting my lashes.
"Of course you can, Bethel. Don't be so naive. You watch movies; you read books; you have ide
Bethel's Pov:"I want us to have..."I suddenly paused on my words.Hold on;Am I blatantly going to ask a guy for s3x in such manner?What the heck? How can I do such a thing?Besides, I'm not even ready for s3x yet.I looked at Ryan and he was staring at me curiously."I um...Sorry, I just wanted to thank you for honoring my request and showing up in my school. It really meant a lot to me. Thanks" I said nervously, hoping I sounded convincing enough.He scoffed and didn't say a word for a while and I wondered why he scoffed."Is that it?" He asked and I nodded.Hold on; why's he asking?"Well...you're welcome" he replied and walked away, leaving the room.As soon as he left, I turned and faced the door.Oh,
Bethel's Pov:I scoffed in disbelieve.Hold on; did I just hear her correctly?She wants me to..."Do I have to repeat myself, Bethel?" She asked and I sprang on my feet."And what do you want to do?" I asked."I mean, do you really think I'm lying to you?""I never said you were, Bethel, I just wanna make sure"."Well, I'm sorry but I can't let you do that. First, you forced me into getting married. Yet, after everything, you still doubt me? I'm sorry mum, but I can't let you do that to me. I'm telling you the truth" I said indelicately and slowly, she stood up as well."So, you wanna play stubborn with me, huh?" She asked with a hard stare but I kept mute."Well," she said calmly and dropped her glass of wine on the table."I don't really have time to play around with kids. So, for your sake, I hope y
Bethel's Pov:I checked and discovered it was Jackson.Huh?Jackson? Why's he calling me?I cleared my throat a bit before picking the call."Hey, Bethel" he called. immediately."Hi" I replied, perfunctorily.We haven't spoken on phone after the day I met him at the marriage school."Where are you? Are you at home?" He asked."Yeah" I replied, tucking my hair behind my ear."Okay. Um...could you step out for a minute? I'm outside the gate".I furrowed my brows in surprise and looked at the gate."You're...outside the mansion?" I asked."Yeah".Immediately, I hurried to the gate and the securities let me out. And immediately i got outside, I found him in a black car.Really? So, he was serious?I ended the call and scuttled to w
Bethel's Pov:My jaws dropped as I stared at him in shockRyan?What...What's he doing here? With Lady K?I felt my whole systems become weak as I became nervous.Jackson...He definitely saw Jackson and I kissing.Oh,God!No."Ry...Ryan?" I stuttered his name, helplessly.There was a stunned expression in his eyes. His gaze couldn't leave my face.How did this happen?I stared pathetically at me and slowly, just as if he hadn't seen a thing, he turned around and walked away."Bethel" Jackson called and I looked at him. I was so confused.Immediately, I started running after Ryan."Ryan! Ryan!" I called from behind, but he didn't stop or turn to look at me."Hey, listen to me" I ca
Bethel's Pov:I walked into the classroom with the Shirley girl and as usual, Nicole was already waiting for me on my seat."Hey B" she waved at me as I got to where she was."Hi" I replied weakly and took my seat.Shirley stood and stared at both of us and that was when I understood she needed a place to sit."Oh! Sorry, but there's no vacant seat around here" I told her and she nods."Alright then. I'll just take a vacant seat from the back" she replied and went to the back."Okay; and who's that?" Nicole asked as soon as she left."She's just a newbie who lost her way to class" I replied and stared at the floor."Are you alright? You look kind of...""I'm fine" I cut her off with a sigh."O...kay. Although, you don't look fine to me".We remained quiet for a while
Bethel's Pov:"Ryan" I called tenderly, still standing behind him.He kept mute and next, I went to stand in front of him."Fine! I'm sorry, okay? I promise you, I'll stay away from Jackson. I'll never see him or talk to him ever again. I'll avoid him like you asked me to. And...I promise, I'll never do anything to make you mad again. Just forgive me this once" I rushed my words, not thinking twice.Did I just say I'll never do anything to make him mad again?He kept silent for a while and finally stood up with his laptop and surprisingly, he started towards the door.What? Is he really walking away?I rushed to him immediately and held him by the wrist, making him stop."Come on, Ryan; I said I'm sorry" I said with a sting of conscience and he slowly took his eyes to my hand on his wrist.
Bethel's Pov:The rays of the sun glinting on the window reflected on my face as I fluttered my eyes open.At first, my vision was blur, but I could tell I was staring at the ceiling.I yawned and tried recalling what had happened the previous night. I could remember getting drunk - yes. Then, I dozed off.Hold on...So, how did I end up in the bed?I turned my neck and saw Ryan sleeping beside me.Whaaaaat?I gasped and sat up immediately.Ryan! Sleeping on the bed beside me?How...How did it happen?I mean,First, I thought he was avoiding me?And second, this was the first time I was waking up to see him sleeping beside me since we got married. Each time I woke up, he was always out of bed already - making me think he didn't even sl
Bethel's Pov:The black limo drove through the gate with Ryan and I sitting at the backseat.Immediately the driver pulled to a stop, guards from the cars that followed us behind rushed out and opened the door for me and Ryan.We came out of the car together and met some men in front of the building who were already waiting for us."Mr Ryan" one of the men called and exchanged a handshake with him."We were informed of your coming and are very pleased to have you here with us."Welcome ma'am Bethel" he turned and said to me."Thanks" I smiled perfunctorily."Please, come in with us" the other man said and Ryan and I walked in with them.We entered the first floor of the building which was more of a reception and took the elevator which took us up to the third floor."What's the scheduled time for this meeting?" Ryan asked as we walked out of the elevator."Oh! That'd be about an hour time or so" one of the
