I said to myself while walking back to my bedroom. “Mia, are you still up?” I said as I opened the door. I didn't get a reply, so I walked towards her side of the bed and gently tapped her. She opened her eyes slightly and grumbled. “Leave me alone, I need to sleep,” she said in a grumpy tone. “ I apologize for what I said earlier, I was being petty and immature," I said in a soft tone.

Reed's POV “I will be with you shortly” I said to Mia who was trying to hide her bad mood. I sense she was in serious tears. I knew something was wrong but I was confused.I tried not to judge Azek immediately. He might not be the direct cause for her tears. Deep down, my guts told me Azek had committed another offense that made Mia to break down like that. I drove hurriedly to Azek's mansion, the road was busy as countless cars were out. Workers coming in from work. Making driving slow and difficult. I made use of some shortcuts I knew and got to the mansion some fifteen minutes later. As I entered the building, it was awfully quiet. I guess the kids were not back from school.I scanned the living room looking for any sign of life. Everything looked dead calm. “Hello, is anyone home” I said as I walked in. My eyes caught Mia in the corner of the room. She was crying with her head buried between her arms. “Mia, what's wrong? “ I said as I walked towards her. I drew a chair a

Azek’s POV Reed was trying to make his way to Mia. He was using her most vulnerable state to get her. I felt betrayed. “Why would he do this to me, well, It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have put Mia in such a state,” I said to myself As I walked up the stairs in shame and growing hate for Reed? I heard someone come into the mansion. I didn’t care who it was, I just continued walking up the stairs. I was only thinking about how to make Mia love me again. “Reed !, you asshole” I screamed in my head. I didn’t want Mia to be more upset. I decided not to confront Reed in her presence. Deciding to go upstairs and not say a word. It was the best option. When I got to my room, I dropped my bags and sat on the bed. Thinking of my next move. When suddenly I heard Lilian’s voice, she wailed and cried, asking if Mia was ok. She was the one who walked in on my way up the stairs. “What has he done this time, why can’t he just make this marriage work and stop putting you through emotional stres

Mia’s POV A lot was going on in my life at the moment. One day, my happy marriage turned into a failing one. Lilian was fed up with all Azek was doing. “You deserve better, honey, just leave this man. He doesn’t want your happiness. He just wants to be heartbroken” Lilian said, raising her voice. “Please, Mia, just try not to think about it. Your health is more important. Your kids need you. Please be here for them” Lilian said referring to my health condition. I wasn’t supposed to be triggered by sadness or anger. I was handling my emotions well, but my countenance showed how heartbroken I was. Reed came back downstairs and said to me “Cheer up honey, don’t allow his behavior to break you and deprive you of pure happiness. You have the purest heart a person anyone could have. You deserve happiness to the fullest. Please cheer up, we all love you”. Both Reed and Lilian’s words were so calming, and my anxiety reduced as I heard each of them encourage me. Truly, I was loved and A

Azek’s POVHer scream pierced my soul so badly that I couldn’t reply to the question. “Mia …” I said as my words got stuck in my mouth. “If you don’t know what to say, just let me sleep please,” Mia said to me harshly.I wanted to speak with Mia, but my self-confidence had fizzled away. I didn't understand why, but I just couldn’t speak fluently. This annoyed Mia the more, and she settled into sleep. I tried tapping her again, but she just ignored me. “What is precisely your annoyance” I asked Mia I asked in frustration, I wanted Mia to see my efforts in making our marriage work. I couldn’t just keep quiet and avoided me like a plague. That would work, it would only increase the tension I have with her already. “Chloe didn’t tell me who she was that night, and I was badly drunk,” I said, trying to reduce the accusations laid on me. “So how do you explain her knowing your office, that means she has been there severally” Mia argued“I swear, Mia, we don’t have any affair togethe
