CHAPTER 71

Valerie's POV Tangled in the comforter of Ryan's bed as my eyes open, a throbbing pain hits my head, reminding me of my hangover and what happened last night. Before I can think too deeply about it, I see a glass of water and two medicine on the side drawer that will help with the hangover. I quickly take it to gulp it down while sitting upright. I feel sore and I remember it all. I remember how he made passionate love to me last night and how his warm body felt against mine. I remember how he worshiped every part of my body and made me conscious of them. I remember how he kept on muttering my name and how beautiful I am. I remember how he was patient enough for me to reach the climax alongside him. I feel like I know a lot about sex because I read about it, we talk about it with Brenda but this feels different. Despite the bright smile that spread to my face, I feel a bit strange now that I have finally lost my virginity. I know it is worth losing it to Ryan more than any ot

CHAPTER 72

Ryan's POV After a round of handshakes, I finally left the office in a hurry to go home and see how Valerie is doing.I have been thinking about her all day and I could barely concentrate on work. I was thinking about how we made love last night and also what she must be thinking right now.As for my last statement, I would call it fear. I am scared she will go back to that cold woman, ignoring me like nothing happened last night between us.I was tempted to call her over the phone this morning but I kept refraining myself from doing so because I don't want to push her away.Obviously, she wants us to take it one step at a time. And that is what I want to do with her. Even though she didn't tell me she likes me or she accepts to be real with me, I feel on top of the moon already because of what happened between us last night.I never saw it coming. Probably because of how she flares up when I talk about having sex with her or whenever I do something close to that.I was damn scared s

CHAPTER 73

Valerie's POV I flutter my eyes open and shut them back almost immediately. My head throbs and my eyes are weak.I try to lift my legs and I do so without any hassle. I try to lift my hands too and I did too.When I drop them back on the bed, I become weaker.Where the hell am I? I open my eyes again to see nothing but white ceilings with huge hanging white fans. Why is everything full of white? Where am I? Who am I?I take a couple of deep breaths, then I feel a comforting touch on my hand. Before I can turn to stare at who the person is, a shout of triumph fills the air."Valerie!" I hear them shout till I can see their faces. I recognize two of them but one of the faces seems unfamiliar."My baby, please say something!" my mother gushes at me. Even if I do not recognize her, her actions alone are enough to give it away that this is my mother.What happened to me?She takes the hand touching me away and grabs me roughly, making me wince in pain. This is when I notice a cap on my

CHAPTER 74

Ryan's POV First, she couldn't recognize one, and then all of a sudden, she began to splutter out the unbelievable.It's been a week already since her accident but she keeps asking me the same question over and over again, infuriating me. It takes a lot of courage not to ask her to shut the fuck up because the question of my paternity pisses me off.When I got to the hospital, I couldn't believe she was laying lifeless on the bed. Just the day before, she was full of life as she writhe passionately beneath me.I was curious to know where she had gone and what happened. When I questioned her mother, she told me Valerie was involved in an accident. Her car was found by the roadside and she was slumped on the wheels with blood oozing out from her head.She lost a lot of blood before passersby could know that she was there. By the time she got to the hospital, she had almost slipped into consciousness.A portion of her head was stitched.Her mom said she was found on the route leading to

CHAPTER 75

Valerie's POV No one believes me, not even my husband or my Father. If Mother didn't know about this, I would have assumed she doesn't believe me either because she keeps avoiding the topic.This is insane.This whole thing.Not me. I am fine. Absolutely fine. There is nothing wrong with me except for the bandage around my head."You have to believe me, Father", I point out in impatience. "I know what I am saying."He continues to remain silent, without looking shaken or shocked, making me wonder if he knows about this too.Where the hell did Mother hear it from? She was the one who told me and I was so sure Ryan wasn't aware. I was having my doubts about it as well until that incident.His Mother isn't even calling me and not picking up my calls. Everybody is looking at me like a crazy woman and I am desperate to see her now more than ever.Getting evidence to back up my claim is the only way Ryan can believe me.Or something else My dad. If my father can tell us what is between h

CHAPTER 76

Ryan's POV With curiosity eating at me, I go through each day with pain in my heart. I don't want to believe that the single word that Valerie said that keeps ringing in my ears is true.I am also in pain because I love her. I want her to be fine. I want us to be together. If this turns out to be a joke like I presume it to be, then I don't think I can be with her.She has no idea how close Mother and I are. I admit that I am not too close to Dad but Anita is closer to him than I am.But Mother and I share an unbreakable bond. She tells me everything. Every secret. There is no way in the world that she can hide a huge secret like this away from me.What Valerie is claiming is pure nonsense. I don't know if she knows the gravity of what she is saying.It means Mother cheated on my Dad. It means I am a bastard. If this gets out, Valerie will be in big trouble because Dad won't let her go scot-free for wanting to ruin our prestigious family name.I open the door and enter to see a heap

CHAPTER 77

Valerie's POV She is either pretending or completely unaware of what happened in her presence that day.I won't take this as a yes to the doubt about my mental health. Don't crazy people know they are crazy?I am fine. Absolutely doing fine. There is nothing wrong with me or my brain. My brain is in perfect condition.Just like her usual self, she smiles at me sweetly as we are having dinner, passes me the salt, stretches the jug of fruit juice at me, and even pats my hand simply because she feels sorry for the bandage that is still over my head.I forget most times that I still have this damn thing on my head. The way it makes me so uncomfortable sometimes is what makes me remember while other times, it is when people flash me pitiful looks just like Ryan's mother is doing right now.I am picking at my food because I can't help the confusion I am feeling right now. I know I am right but I still don't know what else to think about all of this.I thought coming here would resolve ever

CHAPTER 78

Ryan's POV Mom is as curious as I am because of how she keeps darting her gaze toward the door Valerie and my father took.Trying to think of something to say to light up the atmosphere and take her mind off them, I clear my throat. "You ok?"She fixes her gaze on me and nods with a smile.I am not asking her if she is ok now, I am asking if she is fine and healthy. There is no sign of being unhealthy and it keeps confusing the hell out of me."Do you think it's about the promise we made to Adams? Is that why your wife wanted to see your father?"I didn't think of it that way. At first, I was scared Valerie wanted to see him because of her belief of him being her attacker but I trust her to play safe.That will endanger her. My Dad can sue her without considering the fact that she is his daughter-in-law. He doesn't take issues like this lightly and I'm sure he won't do the same for the daughter of his enemy.There is nothing to categorize his relationship with her father. Since they

This is the only way Ryan can believe me and this is the only way we can save his Mother.When I told him Anita was involved, he went ballistic with anger.

I can't take any action so I won't jeopardize my life, my parent's life, and even Ryan's. He isn't seeing the efforts I am making in all of this.But last night, he was calm and back to his normal s

CHAPTER 80

Ryan's POV Valerie's courage coupled with her obsession with this same topic that has been going on for weeks fuels my anger every single time I remember it all.How it all started and the question of where this is going.This is definitely an obsession. Involving Anita has confirmed my suspicion of her obsession and her unstable mental health.I won't let her do this to me anymore. These are my family members and I love them. Anita can never hurt Mom. She is our mom and I can never believe a single thing about her trying to hurt mom.Valerie is unbelievable.First, it was my Dad. Then she claimed Mother called her home and now Anita? Isn't that absurd?With my head banging, I pace to and fro the room, waiting for her to say something at least to dissipate this rush of adrenaline.I can't even think of a possible solution to all of this anymore. This is getting out of hand already.I twirl around to face her. She is usually quiet and calm. The anxious expression on her face the other
