Or what happened?Do you think so lowly of me that you see me as someone capable of such of a thing?"she stated."Are you not going to a knowledge the fact that you are the one wrong in all of this?who the hell lets another man into their matrimonial home?"he asked in disbelief.She threw up her hands and down in exasperation."For the last time,I didn't let him into our house.I was picking up something I ordered and we were just having a conversation until your mother came in and blew up everything into different proportions"she let out a frustrated sig

His mother always had the worst timing.It should be because she had it out for her and was determined to never let them ever have their alone time .It was possible.

MICHAEL'S POV "Shit!" He had messed up big time.He should have blocked her number but he had chucked that at the back of his mind after he had gotten home.

ALINA'S POV Ever since their argument,they had stayed completely at a standstill.With him sneaking away every night to God knew where. Most nights for a week now,she had laid in bed trying to envision what it would have felt like if they had actually made love that day but unfortunately,fate had other plans in-store for them.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

MICHAEL'S POV "What?"he asked in disbelief,his hand fisted on his laps in guilt. "Yes am calling your bluff."she answered settling back on her seat. "What are you saying?" She raised her hand to signal a waiter.A scrawny looking man clad in a black shirt with a white apron tied around his waist came running with a checkerboard and a pen in hand .He gave Michael a nod before turning to Paulina who looked like she was perfectly in her element with a smug smile playing on her lips. "Yes Ma'am?" The witer said as he raised his pen to his writing pad with his hands fidgeting as he compressed the ballpoint end to release the pen.He struggled for so long,it was pitiful.She gave him a knowing smile and reached for the pad and scribbled on for a few minutes before handing it back to the waiter who scampered out of there like one who was been chased. His eyes narrowed suspiciously at her. "Is there something going on?"He asked out of curiousity. She cleared her throat and stoo

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

MICHAEL'S POV "Micheal it was your mother" "What?"He asked with a confused frown. She stood on her hip,folding her arms to arch a brow at him. "That's not possible"he said letting out an awkward laugh. "Its possible Michael.It happened when you had collapsed that night.After we got home that morning.When we had gone into the kitchen to prepare something for you to have when you came to.She had clearly used that moment to delvuge to me that she would never let our marriage last.And in not so kind terms told me that I was a gold digger, out to get your money and that she wasn't going to let me have my way."she narrated,recalling every moment of the converstaion.

Jeff's hands slammed on the table as he leaned forward abruptly. He sat there unmoving."Why would you do that, Micheal we talked about this. What are you going to do when the signs start showing man? Don't you think she has a right to know about your condition?" he queried."I can't man.No matter how hard I try to, I just can't think of doing it.

ALINA'S POV When she had woken up, she had found herself surrounded by the four walls of beautifully decorated room filled with flowers. She had raised her arm to put across her eyes as she waited for the wave of headache to pass. She had heard the door open before hearing the voices. His voice stood out the most among the voices. "Oh good she's awake" She heard the familiar voice of the doctor followed by his footsteps. He pulled her arm down and did his examination forcing her to look up at Micheal who stood rigidly behind him. She looked away when he caught her staring up at him. "You're fit as a fiddle "The doctor spoke up oblivious of the tension that was thick in the air. "I'll just have the nurses prepare your discharge papers.

She turned hesitantly to face him now. She saw the pained expressio
