All Chapters of Married To My Ex's Father : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

GLENDA'S POVI couldn't remember how long I've locked myself in my room. The dark color underneath my eyes screamed how sleep starved I was. I had cried out everything in me.I knew that the circumstances surrounding my pregnancy were complicated, but it still didn't stop me from feeling so terrible. I had just lost my baby. I wiped a tear that slid down my face at the thought of it. I couldn't come to terms with it. The baby already felt like something that belonged to me. I was already forming a connection to it. I wanted to give it many things and more which I was not opportuned to get from my mom. I guess that will never happen now. It will remain wishful thinking.But I had grieved enough. I couldn't remain locked in here forever. I needed to start putting my life back together. I looked around my room tiredly. The dishes from the meal I had sent to me days ago laid atop the vanity table in my room. I didn't touch a piece of it and I had not let Nora in to retrieve it. The sten

GLENDA'S POV "Eh, Glenda?" Nana's voice jolted me out of my head.I raised my head to her and questions filled my eyes. "What did you say, Nana?""I asked if you think anyone would be able to resist my beauty." Nana repeated and my mind traveled back to the conversation we were having just before I zoned out."Oh no, Nana. I don't think anyone can resist your charm." I said with a forced smile."See! At least someone knows it!" Nana feigned anger at Maurice and I smiled at her action.Nana was a wonderful woman, always jolly. I wished I had her kind of free-spiritedness. Despite her health, she still joked about trivial things. Dinner was quiet thereafter. I still couldn't eat much. After Maurice's confrontation and Lucy's insults hurled at me, I forced myself to consume some of the meal. The food tasted great but I really didn't have the appetite to eat. My heart was still heavy from my loss. And I was carrying the weight all alone.Maurice finished his food and sighed in satisfact

GLENDA'S POVI couldn't take my gaze away from the rising sun. The big orange hue as it seemed to sit on top of the water in the distance, took my breath away and held my attention. The cool breeze caused gentle ripples over the water as the rays from the sun seemed to color the water. It was such a beautiful sight.The view I had just witnessed was beautifully ingrained in my memory. Slowly, I turned my head to look at Maurice. A mix of conflicting emotions filled my mind."Why did you bring me here?"He shrugged his shoulders as he seemed to pounder on his reply. "Don't you like it?" His gaze held a tinge of doubt. I hoped he didn't regret bringing me here."No, no, no. I love it!." I bowed my head shyly. "I just wonder why you thought of this."He still doesn't respond to my question. His gaze turned brooding as they rested over the waters before he spoke."Your mother used to love it here. She would always stop here before leaving." He smoothly changed the topic.My eyes softened

GLENDA'S POVI was surprised when I heard Maurice say he intended to take me on the trip. That would mean I was going to be meeting his family as his wife! The idea coursed excitement and anxiety through me. I wondered what it would be like to see where Maurice grew up and what made him into the man that he is.I stood by the kitchen counter mulling over these thoughts. Absent-mindedly, I stared fixated at nothing as I seemed to be looking out the window. I was so lost in my head, I didn't hear when someone joined me in the room."Don't think because you get to travel with him just to attend his brother's wedding makes you HIS WIFE! It doesn't change anything!" Lucy's sneering voice behind me interrupted my muddled thoughts. She didn't stop there as she continued her lashing at me."Don't go feeling all high and mighty now, he will never see you as his wife!" I sighed tiredly. I was in a good mood and I didn't want to spoil it. But if Lucy was Benton disturbing my peace, then a litt

GLENDA'S POVI didn't know what got into me that made me question Maurice so much. Thankfully he didn't get crossed with me. This was all Nana's fault for setting me up with Maurice.I strode down the hall, darting my eyes back and forth. I wanted to avoid Nana. I knew she would be asking me what Maurice and I agreed on and I haven't thought of what to say to her.Nana would not buy the 'it's a surprise' excuse. That was only a means to escape Maurice's principal study and those piercing eyes of his."Why are you sneaking about like a thief?"I froze and slowly turned around to come face to face with Lucy. Because I had been so caught up in my mission to avoid Nana, I had not recognized her voice.I straightened and collected myself as I looked at Lucy end long."Oh!" She slapped a hand on her face. "I forgot, you are a thief!"I just rolled my eyes at her. She was becoming an insistent nuisance in my life."You are so jealous you can't stand seeing me with Maurice, aren't you?. Don't
