Chapter 31 THROWING A TANTRUM

"Are you really interested in what I am thinking?" Athena hesitated for a while and thought carefully of the possible outcome. If he was adamant to know about what she was planning then might as well tell him this instance. She thought and scrolled down on her phone searching for her hidden files. She was about to show him the background of Hannah's stepbrother but his phone rang, snapping them both out from their conversation.Terrence took hold of his mobile phone from the windshield and peered at it. Upon knowing that it was his assistant, he answered the call directly without hesitation. "Mark," he mumbled quizzically.Mark went. "Boss, you have a meeting in 30 minutes with the IS Construction Company.""Alright, I'll be there." Terrence then dropped the call and started the engine as he went. "We had a meeting to catch up, Athena. Can we discuss this matter later?" He was presiding over as he maneuvers the steering w

Chapter 32 THUNDERSTRUCKED

STANFORD COMPANYThe moment Athena dropped her call, Anton eventually began calling his assistant barking orders about his sister's request.

Chapter 33 MARRITAL ADJUSTMENTS

Terrence's face turned livid when he heard his wife's abrupt confession. His stares on her face were similar to sharp blades, piercing every ounce of her calmness. "Athena Adams, how dare you keep this information from me?" He was so mad while looking at her and he failed to recall that he was clasping her foot really hard."Ouch!" Athena suddenly winced and went on taking a huge breath enduring the terrible pain that she was feeling at the moment. "Terrence, you're… You're breaking my foot, babe. Do you plan on making me a cripple for the next couple of days?" Her voice had turned hoarse as she tried to bit her lips to muffled her painful cry. It was then that Terrence finally released let her foot and throw it down fro his lap. He stood up and went to his frebcvh window without casting a glance at her. He was damned silent and refuses to utter any words to her. He had a cold and straight face while gazing out the buildings. He never know

Chapter 34 INCOMING SLAP

Mike was now seething in full rage ready to explode at any time soon. Just the sound of Anton Standford's voice who stood to support his sister was enough to tell him that their company problem has gotten any worse than being solved. His fingers were trembling to snap Hannah's neck. Wherever she is right at the moment, he would soon find her and teach her a very good lesson. As he marched out of the building, his mobile phone's fierce vibrations suddenly took his maddening attention. He shoved his hand inside his pocket and fished it out. As he peered on his screen, a furious growl escaped from his throat. "Father," he grumbled deeply under his breath.The other party was obviously shuffling on the other end for a moment that it didn't come to answer him fast. But after almost half a minute, a heavy breathing sounded in his ears accompanied by a man's hoarse voice. "Mike, our accounts were empty. Can you talk to your sister if she could ask her boyfriend

Chapter 35 BEGINNING OF THEIR HATRED

It was around 2 in the afternoon when Terrence and Athena finished their lunch date. Having done so, he drove directly towards Stanford's mansion. The eagerness to experience painting with Athena again was too irresistible for him to ignore. Having been at odds with each other for a long time, he never intended to appear in his wife's mansion after they got married.At that time, Terrence swore to himself that he would never set foot again in that place even if Anton, his friend, would drag him inside. He hated Athena so much down to his bones for thinking that she was luring his parents and grandpa to marry him. They were fond of her and their issues as friends to enemies were pushed aside into their elders' deaf ears. They didn't take their hatred for each other seriously. They were still young at that time and they thought it would eventually dissipate as the time went by. Couple of years had passed and that hatred never dissipated inside him. He trie

Chapter 36 MEMORIES DISSIPATING

"Hey, don't shout at me." Athena warned him while massaging her temples. She suddenly felt a splitting headache while trying to recall all her memories way back. It seemed to her that the therapy was indeed working on her now but now totally yet.Terrence couldn't keep his composure anymore. He felt mixed feelings coming blowing off his gut like a whirlwind. He stared at her and questioned, "Why don't I know that you were involved in an accident when you were abroad?" He seemed to feel bad about her hiding it from him.She continued to massage her throbbing head and replied. "Come on, everything has been done. Why are you trying to recall it? I can't get them back, it only cracks my head." Having said that, she stood up and went back to the car. She rummaged through her purse while her face contorted into grimace.Terrence followed her behind and also hopped in the driver seat. He glanced at her rummaging hands and found her h

Chapter 37 HIS FEARS

Terrence panicked. He scooped her in his arms and shouted for some aid. "Somebody, please help!"Athena's family butler came tumbling down the stairs upon hearing the man's yelling. "Young master, you're here?" He looked astonished seeing him and his eyes suddenly shot wide open when he spotted his Young Miss, laying in the latter's arms. "What… What happened?" He nervously inquired."Please call the doctor, Uncle Jim. She fainted." Terrence muttered while carrying her towards the stairs. He couldn't shake off the feeling that his wife was suffering into something that he hadn't known. His heart was now beating so fast and an inexplicable fear suddenly crept the hell out of him.The shocked butler then fished out his phone and dialed Stanford's private doctor's number but before that he went on barking his orders to the rest of the house staff to help Terrence to get their Young Miss's room ready.Terrence on the

Chapter 38 PLEAD FOR HER SAFETY

The next day at Stanford's Mansion…The sun had risen. Its delicate rays warmly illuminated the whole dimmed room, peering from the side curtains facing to the east direction. On the bed, laid two bodies. One was sleeping peacefully whilst the other one was wide awake watching over the other form. Arms entangled on each other's body yet Terrence couldn't seem to have enough of being just letting her nestled in his arms. His breathing was repressed as he shifted her on the other side of the pillows. He was so stiff as his morning urge kicked his gut really good. Though he was desperately craving for her, he had to hold his horses and bear with it. For the meantime!Terrence was cautious enough not to wake his wife up as he was aware that she needs more sleep to regain her energy back after blocking out the previous night. This was also the reason why he couldn't get his way to her. He assumes that she might not

Chapter 39 UNUSUALLY SWEET

The day was pleasant as Terrence pulled the curtains off to give way to the sun rays into the room. He gazed at the garden through the window still wrapped in a towel. His memories with her painting in the garden came flashing into his mind causing him to smile.Athena glanced at her husband and immediately went to the wardrobe to find something for him to wear. She didn't have any men's apparel in it but there was a white bathrobe that perhaps would fit for him as she calculated that the butler was about to head in her room after taking her requested breakfast through the intercom.She took it off from the hanger and approached him from behind. "Terrence, wear this. The butler might come anytime soon." She mumbled softly.He cocked his brow tilting his head facing her. "I don't care if he sees me like this." He muttered. "Besides, we've been married for years, what's wrong with me staying in your room like this?"She shook her head and said, "You

Chapter 40 CHAOTIC FAMILY

Meanwhile at the hospital…Hannah just stirred up in her bed when the nurse barged in and checked on her vitals. She rolled her eyes in annoyance as she stretched out her arm in irritation. "Can I leave the hospital?" She asked.The nurse cast a quick glance at her. "Yes, you no longer had a fever, Miss." She said, "Just please be mindful that over sexual activity is not good for you this time around. You're not completely healed."Hannah clenched her fists and glared at the nurse who had a stoic expression on her face. "Should you be this blatant in telling such things to me?" She spat.The nurse shook her head. "I'm just doing my job, Miss. I'm a professional nurse." She defended nonchalantly."Get it done!" Hannah snapped."Almost right there, Miss."The room burst open and Mike emerged with a sullen look on his face. He glared at her sharply while clenching his fist.
