All Chapters of Delilah: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The drive back home was a quiet one. Even though Maria was boiling and felt like venting out but she didn't want to do it while Alma was with them.The moment she was alone with Mateo in their room, she let it all out."Uuuhhh... Do you see it now? Do you see why I hate going to your parents house? Imagine the humiliation."Mateo did not respond. He acted like he did not understand her, like she was speaking in a language that he did not know."Mateo? How are you so calm and quiet about this?""What do you expect me to do? Shout and rant like you're doing? Does it solve the problem?""At least you know there is a problem, hi so you intend to solve it? It's like you don't know the severity of this. If your brother gets a boy child first, you will loose everything. You will loose the company, loose your respect, loose everything."Mateo did not respond. Instead, he took a soft sip of water from his glass."MATEO?!" She yelled."What?""My God! You really aren't concerned. are you?""I w

Mateo sat in his study, his mind occupied by just one woman.Not his mother, not his daughter, not even his wife but a total stranger. A woman he knew very little about and had only met a few times had found a way into his mind, into his heart, into his soul. She was kind, caring, gentle and beautiful.She was odd in the best possible way, eccentric, and unusual.He could still remember her blue eyes as if they were still holding his gaze. He tried! Oh he tried so hard to stop himself from thinking about her, from her thoughts invading his every waking moment. He could not get her from his mind.It seemed she was everywhere.There was something about her that made him think she was watching him.And when he would close his eyes he could see her face as if he were looking through a window.This time his hand had slipped from his forehead and was resting by his lips.He kept touching them unconsciously, not knowing why.An image of her followed, his mind creating a world where she woul

Diego closed his eyes and inhaled heavily as he stood in front of the door. His whole body screamed for him to go back but this is for Amelia, this was for Alexander, this was for Roberta.He felt a light tap on his shoulder. He turned to face Olivia. "Are you sure you want to do this?" She asked.He nodded. He'd been preparing for this. "Yes, let's go in."Olivia knocked and the door to the meeting room was opened. They had agreed to meet at fuego's elementary.He saw Li-lah, Maria and the school principal present."I'm sorry for coming late, I had to settle other affairs" he said The principal smiled. The excitement of having a top government official, a presidential candidate at that, In her school was apparent to all. "You don't have to apologise sir." She said smiling. "We know how politics can take up your time. Please sit.""Mr Diego Gomez, it's a very big honor to finally meet you." Maria said."The honor is mine" Diego said giving a forced smile. He turned to look at Li-la

Mateo had been stressed from attending one meeting after the other. He finally had some time to himself and decided to watch the TV; anything to keep his mind from tiring out.The moment the television turned on, she was the first person he saw or thought he saw. An advert for a lingerie company was showing and Li-lah was the model for the lingerie. She was wearing a tight-fitting white one-piece and he could see the tops of her stockings, her shapely legs and the slight dimple on her butt. When he saw her, he felt as if his own body was warm.He tried to change the channel but it seems his eyes and hands were working together to stop him from doing so. His hands would not press on the button, nor would his eyes leave her, while his mind was no longer listening to his brain.All he could do was watch as the beautiful woman in skimpy underwear walked around, seductively posing, with her chest puffed out, her asse wiggling.He began to recall those close and intimate moments they had

Maria was shocked when she stepped I to the house to see Mateo in the living room with their daughter, alma lying on his thighs. She had fallen asleep and he was caressing her.Marisol was relaxing on the sofa and watching a news report.When he noticed her, he merely gave her a side glance ."Honey! I wasn't expecting you to be home so early."He still didn't respond to her. He just kept on watching."I went to see my dad, that is why I am home late. He said he wanted to talk about business and..."When did your father start talking about business with you?" He asked with no expression on his face."Honey, I...it's...When the surprise had subsided, Mateo simply let out a sigh and stood up. he was extremely irritated with Maria. He took alma gently Into his arms. "I'll be sleeping in the study tonight, I have a lot of work to do. You can shower and go to bed. I'll tuck Alma in." He said and headed up the stairs without waiting for a response.After putting alma to bed, Mateo went in
