“And what do you have to say for yourself about what they are accusing you of?” the judge asked Angela as she sat in the witness box.She looked at Trevor, who was sitting to her left with his wife by his side, but even she could tell things were not okay between them. They walked inside the courtroom separately and they didn’t even look as happy together as she saw them.And this was all she intended to do. This was something she hoped for, and it happened just like that.“Well, what can I even say? The father of my child is the reason I'm here, and he has refused to take care of my baby. He manipulated me and lied about everything,” she said and began crying. “I didn’t even know he was married,” she added.Everyone was quiet, but they talked in whispers of how she sounded truthful. People suddenly began to believe her, and that was something he didn’t want.“Well, why did he bring you here?” Jackson’s lawyer asked her.She was silent as she wiped off her tears. “I don’t even know. S
The next morning he just woke up and did not find his wife in bed. And this time she didn’t even work him up or prepare for him clothes to wear. He got up took a shower and walked downstairs after he finished. “Janet, where is Eliza?” He asked the woman who was sweeping the house. She was about Eliza’s age just a bit older, with long hair that she tied in a ban. All he knew about her was that she used to work for Eliza at some point. “She just walked outside a few minutes ago. She said she will be back soon,” she said looking at him. “Do you need anything? She prepared food for you and she..” she tapped her chin as she looked at him, “dammit I forgot. She asked me to iron cloths for you. I’m sorry sir,” she said gesturing her hands for him to forgive her. He just smiled, she did care, “it’s fine Janet. I will not tell her. And did she say where she was going?” He said walking to the dining table. “She didn’t sir.”“Alright, you can get back to work. I will be going to work and t
His heart was beating as first as it could the closer he got home. He wanted to believe nothing really happened and that she just wanted him home. Maybe she had something planned for him.But the more he told himself that, the more he realized it was not true. Just last night they were not on good terms and this morning she just left without telling him where she was even going.After things got better between them, they never left home without enforcing each other where the other was going. But this morning she just left without telling him anything. That was freaking the hell out of him.He kept calling her, but she didn’t even pick up. Sent messages, but nothing.He drove as fast as he could, but then that day there was a lot of traffic and he nearly got into a fight with someone because he kept shouting for them to drive faster even though he could see that it was not the person’s fault.After an hour and some minutes, he finally reached home, parked his car and riches inside.“El
The next morning he woke up feeling like the world was a better place once again. Everything between him and his wife was perfect. Jackson and his father were locked up, and so was Angela.They still haven’t heard from her concerning her pregnancy so, he just assumed she was lying and he couldn’t have been happier.Eliza was carrying his child, and that was the only mother of his child he wanted. He didn’t want anyone else carrying his child and much less Angela. Not after what she did. He just wanted to be happy, and that was that. And he was getting all the happiness the world could offer.His company was back on business and after the talk he just had with Mubanga when he woke up and couldn’t have been better. He just received a call that all the companies and people that wanted to invest in his company were now calling back because he proved to them that it was all a setup. They were all coming back to buy wine at his company.Also today he decided not to go to work because he jus
After they finished up in the garden, Eliza decided she needed to take a second shower. He wanted to retort and tell her off that she just took a shower before they had their breakfast date, but knowing it wasn’t going to do him good, and if he wanted this day to go perfect for him, he decided to shut his mouth instead.After a while of seating in the living room for a few minutes, she finally came downstairs. Wearing a short blue petite dress and sandals. This time she didn’t even accessorize with anything. She just went all plain. Not makeup and now jewelry.He just stood up as his eyes stopped blinking for a few seconds. His eyes couldn’t stop looking at her, and despite being with her and seeing her every day, his heart never stopped beating for her. With each passing day, he felt like he was discovering her beauty all over again.“What?” she asked as she stopped a few feet from him. “Will you stop looking at me like that?” She said and giggled still.“Wow,” he just said, took her
The day he wanted finally happened. There were issues here and there and at some point he thought he was avoiding his problems, but the good thing about having a loving wife that reminded you that you don’t have to do everything alone she was there to remind him of that.And this day could never have been more perfect for the both of them. From the spa to the cinema and then lastly to the theater. Which happened to be Eliza’s favorite, apparently. The woman fancied the theater, and she wanted to sing. And as a good husband, he promised to take her there once in a while. All in all, it was a blissful day and he could have asked for it to go any other way. And after they left the theater, Eliza decided that they should head to the arcade for the games. And of course she made him sing karaoke, which he hated the most about the day. Even though she kept telling him he sounded amazing and even when people clapped for him, he begged to differ.“Aren’t you tired?” He asked as they took their
“Trevor, who was on the phone?” She asked as she walked up to him from the bathroom. “And I told you to make the bed. Trevor, we talked about this?”He just stood there with the phone in his hands. He looked at her and then at the cell phone again.“Trevor, what happened? Who was on the phone?” She asked and got the phone from him. “Trevor, will you tell me what happened? What did the judge want from you? I thought we dealt with everything.”He opened his mouth but closed it back again, tried to think about anything and how to better say what he had to say, but nothing came to him.“Trevor, I’m getting upset here. What the hell did she say to you? Is everything okay with Angela and Jackson?” She asked and walked him to take a seat on the bed.“I don’t know how to say this, Eliza. And I really wanted this night to end on a good note,” he said and looked up at her. And as he looked into her eyes, he couldn’t help but wonder why such a thing had to happen to him. Of all nights.“Try me,”
After driving for what nearly felt like forever, they finally reached the company. And as sure, there was a scene that actually attracted news reporters and all kinds of people he didn’t want to attract.He hurriedly got up and walked as first as he could with his wife to enter the office. And they hardly made it alive to just enter the company while people kept screaming at them all kinds of questions.This was something he didn’t need right now. He just escaped from the Angela and Jackson scandal and now this. His board members will surely be upset after hearing and finding out about this. Which he was sure as ever they did find out.People in the company just kept looking at him and his wife as they walked to his office, none of them asked any questions, but he knew they had a lot to ask.He just waved and pretended like everything was okay and told a good number of them to get back to their work.“Eliza, tell me why I should kill your brother?” He said as they entered the elevator
