He cheated with his ex-wife

“This for you sir.” The waitress placed a glass filled with champagne before Richard. He nodded, took the glass, and sipped slowly. She studied everyone around the table before walking away.Charlene fuddled with her purse on her lap, switching her gaze on everyone that was talking. Their conversation wasn't something she couldn't flow with, they were all talking about business and it left her hanging in the way. Jeremy was among the guests sitting around the table. Charlene felt invisible in their midst, she glanced around to see only Rowan, she scanned the hall, but she couldn't find Kathleen, she concluded that her mother couldn't make it to the party. She checked the time, it wasn't late, Charles was supposed to be enjoying his date with Veronica by now.She sighed softly. When everyone roared in laughter, she was the only one that didn't laugh. She put her purse on the table, leaned over, and moved her mouth to his ear. “I need to use the restroom.” She told him.Richard looked

Her broken heart

The following day, he woke up to see Henrietta lying next to him. When he looked down at the floor, their clothes were all around the floor. He frowned up and hit her violently, waking her. “Henrietta!” He snapped.She woke up and rubbed the heel of her hand on her eyes. She sat up purposely and looked at him. “Um. Richard,” “Why are we on the same bed?” His recollection of the event was hazy. He was waiting impatiently for her to explain what happened between them to him, when she was taking too long he gripped her arm. “What happened last night? I told you to get out, didn't I?”She held his hand, trying to free herself but he didn't let go. She winced in pain. “You were the one that told me not to go.”“And…?” He arched his brow.“To cut it short, we made love.” When he heard the statement he felt the urge of throwing up, he covered his mouth with a hand and looked at her briskly. “We…we, what?” His eyes popped up in bewilderment.“Do you remember kissing me? Don't pretend as if

Divorce

“I haven't seen Charlene since morning. Did she step out of that room at all?” Kathleen asked Flavia who was coming out of Charles' room. She nodded. “She's with Charles.” “Charles?” Kathleen furrowed her brows. She skipped a step close to the door and planted a soft knock on it before twisting the doorknob, as she peeked through she was surprised to see how far Charlene had changed in three days.The sound of the door prompted them to look over, Charlene beamed. “Good afternoon, mum.” “Oh. Honey, how are you today?” She asked, striding toward the bed.“Perfectly fine.” She replied and flashed her a bright smile.Kathleen had no idea of what was going on with her, last night she was moody and barely had her dinner. Right now she was fully dressed and her face wasn't pale anymore, she had a bright smile that lit up her face. It had been only three days, and Kathleen was curious to know what was going on. “So, what happened to you?”She frowned. “What do you mean?”“Charles, what did

Divorce isn't allowed

“You're serious about the divorce, aren't you?” Richard interrupted the awkward silence in the room. He stared straight into her eyes, his own eyes were red as they were showing signs of anxiety. He thought she would change her mind but when he saw her signature on the divorce he was despondent.She nodded twice, not looking at him. “I told you I won't forgive you for what you did.”“But I already explained what happened to you. Do you think I'll sleep with her when I know you're coming?”“Who am I to blame? Henrietta or you for being a fool? Was it too hard for you to admit that you're still in love with your ex-wife? Why? She's the reason we lost our baby yet you still believed her. Do you still have the gut to sleep with her? How dare you, Richard! You have no idea of how much your sight disgusts me. Every time I look at you, it constantly reminds me of everything, the memory of you sleeping with Henrietta, it's too hard to forget. Right now, I'm done. You keep repeating the same t

Poor child

“I wonder how she's doing?” Richard soliloquized, waddling in his office as he gazed out through the glass. He walked up to his desk, picked up his phone, and stared at her picture on the wallpaper. It had been a year and seven months, eleven days already, yet she had returned and there was no news of her whereabouts.“Sir, the conference will begin in thirty minutes.” His secretary announced, standing by the entrance.“I thought I already told you to cancel all my morning schedules. The conference is also adjourned till tomorrow. I need to be somewhere else.” “But, sir…” She was interrupted by a phone, Richard glanced over to check the caller ID, it was Miguel's babysitter. Richard wondered why she was calling her by the time, moreover, he thought Henrietta might be trying to play another trick on him like she did last time, lying that Miguel was ill, he informed her to take him to the hospital and that he would meet them there, Henrietta didn't show up at the hospital because it wa

Daniella

“Miss, I think this belongs to you.” A young man dashed after to catch up with her when she halted to look at the person seeking her attention. She pooched, darkening her eyes suspiciously. “Is there any problem?” She enquired politely. Ever since she stepped into the mall, the young man had been looking at her and Charlene didn't seem to know him at all, there was no way she had come across him somewhere or anywhere before.“I think this fell from your wallet when you were paying the cashier.” He extended the gold credit card to her.Charlene looked down, she abruptly opened her purse and her wallet to check for it but it was gone. She collected it from the stranger and saw the credit card belonged to her. She let out a sigh of relief. “Ah. Goodness, I didn't notice when it dropped off from my bag. Thank you so much.” The young man flashed her a bright smile, revealing his dimples. “You're welcome.”“Thanks.” Charlene nodded, whirled, and walked out of the mall. Opposite the mall t

A stab of jealousy

With everything scattered on the ground, Charlene felt the urge to cry, she was consumed with frustration. She couldn't wait for the day to end so they would all return to the penthouse. The day was a real disaster. Going out with Lauren, Paulo, and Michael was a terrible idea. She never wanted to tag along, but Lauren wouldn't listen to her, she knew once she had Daniella Charlene would come with them definitely since she had always been using the child as an excuse. She glanced around the amusement park, everyone was busy that no one attempted to assist her. She looked down at her phone on the ground and then cursed underneath. “Fuck.” Daniella wouldn't allow anyone to carry her apart from her mother, Charlene couldn't put her down for a second, she would shriek out like she was being pricked with a needle. As she crouched with the baby on her shoulder to pick up her phone which also fell on the ground along with the wrapped snacks, she saw someone's hands, picking the snacks one

They met after five years

“I may not be the best daughter or best wife but I never regret ever running away back then, Charles.” Charlene spoke out of anger which she was trying to abate.“It's been five years, Charlene. For how long will you keep the truth to yourself.” Despite seeing the anger in her eyes, he was calm and polite. He had no intention of telling her what to do, as long as she knew the right thing to do, she was just playing stubbornly, he wouldn't intervene.“As long as I'm breathing. Richard doesn't deserve us.”“He lost everything. Your trust and Miguel.”“I only feel sorry for the poor child. Henrietta was a terrible mother to him, she never really cared about the child from the beginning. I know Richard loves Miguel so much, I told him I'm ready to be a mother to Miguel. Why would he let his ex-wife come between us?”“You still don't understand?”“Of course I do, everything is clear to me. I'm going to inform Richard about Daniella very soon but I won't let him take the child away from me,

His wife

“Okay. Can someone tell me what's going on here, Charlene?” After what seemed like forever he spoke up. Richard wasn't releasing her from the cage of his warmth he had trapped her in, Michael had to voice out because it was becoming too hard to conceal and frustrating.Charlene was as frozen as ice when their bodies gummed. She widened her hands, not hungging him though yet still hadn't recovered from the shock of crossing paths with him. She shut her eyes and kept cursing underneath. His secretary wasn't shocked like other people, she expected her boss to react that way. Recently, perhaps after losing his only son he had become cold-headed, to crown it all he had tried to look for his wife for a couple of years yet to no avail, most of his workers pitied him. Before he wasn't a friendly type but he had become really worse over the years, what made her happy most was seeing a hope. Yes, Charlene. Someone that could at least change him back to his old self, not the grumpy boss that w
