2023-11-03 01:44:15While back at home Richard was in for what anyone would call hell as he got in.
"Li, why are you crying, he asked as he got close to his wife who was crying on the vanity table.She didn't answer but kept sobbing hard."Did my dad say something to you? Richard asked yet again no reaction at this point he let out a sigh going close to touching her but his hand was yanked away."Don't touch me, you are the cause of all of these," she yelled."How do you mean? " he asked in an exhausted tone while sipping his face from the people of sweat which had tickled down."My friends are off to an all-girls paid trip by their husbands while I am here, sitting in front of my vanity set, I don't know what I am doing with you, because you keep hurting me by not providing for me," she said in between sobs."Baby, you know why we can't afford trips now, I am the only one working and you depend on me our lifestyle of before can't be the same as now" he explained yet again."But you promised to take care of me, you promised to make me live a happy and fulfilled life with no worries, what happened? " she asked in a dramatic gesture blowing her nostril into the tissue she had on the table."Yeah, I promised you all that when things were fine! How would I have known things would change within the twinkle of an eye baby? " he asked this time trying to make her understand with him.But Liana had no mercy, she didn't care she just wanted to be on that trip with her friends even if it meant Richard stealing the money."Do what men do, they provide for their women" she said.In a bid to calm her down, he said what he would regret a little further."I'll pay for the trip just sense the details and I'll make the payment" he said.Her face lit up immediately in excitement as she jumped on him excited about what he had just promised to accomplish."I knew you could handle it as the man you are, my name boo, my cash app," she said as she cleaned her tears getting on her tippy toes to give him a quick kiss before she ran out to call her friends and tell them about the newest development."We will be going to the Caribbean of St Barts, and I send the information to you right away baby," she said jumping up and down still as her excitement could be seen exuding.In less than no time Richard's phone pinged and the details for the girl's trip had been sent to his phone."The bill can't be that bad_ shit!! What the hell Liana, I can't afford this " he began to say but she wasn't anywhere near him for him to vent his frustrations and reason as to why he couldn't afford such a huge sum.After going up and down in the room he decided to call his bosom friend to ask for a loan."Hey Man, I need a favour from you" he began after exchanging pleasantries with his friend."What could that be Richy? " George asked."I need a loan of £2000," he requested."Damn man, I just invested a huge sum into a business but I could ask a buddy of mine who knows someone who does money loans to help you out, is that okay? " George asked to be sure his friend understood.In his desperate state to make his wife not bag him to death he accepted."Yeah man, that's okay, when do I get to go see him to get the loan? " Richard asked praying no collateral was needed to get the loan."You won't get to see him, nobody knows who he is, but you've got to make sure the duration he gives you pays back else his wrath isn't going to be one you want on you" Goerge illustrated."Any collateral needed? " he asked hoping it wasn't needed."No none needed, we just have to make sure you are ready to pay the money on the said date with the interest he'd add on it" George explained.It took no time to get to this mysterious loaner who approved the loan within minutes and before Richard could be done with his evening bath the contract was sent to him and he quickly signed and resent to the number that sent it.After he sent, within seconds the £2000 was sent to him, in his excitement he had not read the document he had just signed on his phone to the end.He had inputted his signature on every part which needed to be signed electronically and also he just knew his interest was £1000 on top of the £2000 he had just received."Honey! I just sent you the money for your trip" he said to Liana as he sat to eat dinner."OMG, baby, I love you so much, I mean who wouldn't love a man who provides for his family? Just know I got you always" she said after she paid in for her trip."Splash" Richard spat out the meal he had ingested."What is it babe? "she asked still looking at her phone."Who prepared this poison where is the maid? " Richard asked as he drank more water."Oh, I didn't tell you? I don't want her around anymore I want to take over my home, I want to cool for you" She said this time looking up from her phone."You can't be serious Liana, this hasn't taste, what did you even prepare? What made you think this was edible? He asked as he got up his air and banged the door so hard it echoed.She jolted at the outburst and went to taste the food and immediately she put it in her mouth the reaction was next to none.The same way her husband had sent out the food was the same way she did."But it isn't that bad, he is just overreacting," she said to nobody in particular.Placing the food and dishes on the table she left to continue chatting with her friends on their group chat about their trip to St Barts.Liana didn't even call Richard to find out where he had gone all she wanted to occupy herself with was the trip and also the extra money she now had in her account from the client they were going to meet at St. Barts.Just as she had finished her night routine the door opened harshly revealing a dishevelled and bloodied Richard..

Taking two steps backwards she screamed first. Then she came closer when she realized it was not an intruder but her beloved husband. "What happened to you? " she asked as she went closer to him.

"Humph, maybe you can take care of yourself," she said as she walked towards her side of the bed and went to bed with a smile on her face. The next morning... Alarm ringing. With a banging bloodied face Richard jolted from the floor looking at the side of the table in the bathroom the clock showed 8:30 a.m. Meaning he was late for work already. "Jesus Christ," he said as he got up trying to get himself together. "Liana? Baby I need your help" he called out and got to response. "Maybe she is downstairs," he thought.

"Where are you going to? " Richard asked Liana who had just entered the room and made no effort whatsoever to acknowledge the fact that he was seated on the bed. "Out," she said briefly. "I know you are going out, but why are you going with a suitcase?

"You mean to say you didn't read what was written on the document? " George asked his super oblivious friend and stupid as to what he had just done.

"Well his common sense isn't working yet so he just might lose everything at the end you know he states I could use my name for every single transaction made which means I could at the end of the day claim the property as mine and he will have no proof but the document we

"I have tried my best but he doesn't seem to want to give it to me his children all have what my parents built for me and I am just here barely living from hand to mouth," Liana said as she tugged her hair in a high ponytail. "You should get the police involved" "And how would I get everything done, I need money for all that to get a lawyer and whatnot all the court processes and you know Richy isn't viable with money now, you know he had to borrow this money to have me be here even though it had already been paid," she said with a smile.

"Babe I was on vacation and you can't expect me to be with my phone 24/7 right? " she said walking slowly to his side. She knew his weak button and knew how to manipulate that.

Pains!
Liana stormed into Chris's office, her heels clicking loudly against the polished floor. Her eyes blazed with determination as she faced him across his desk. "Chris, I've had enough of your games. You know exactly what I'm capable of, and if you don't start cooperating, you'll regret it."Chris leaned back in his chair, unfazed by her theatrics. "Oh, Liana, always so dramatic. What is it this time? Another empty threat?""You think I'm bluffing?" Liana shot back, her voice rising. "I have evidence that could ruin you, Chris. You'd be wise to listen to me."Chris raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips. "Is that so? And what evidence might that be, pray to tell?"Liana faltered, her confidence wavering for a moment. She hadn't expected Chris to challenge her so directly. "Well, it's... it's..." She trailed off, searching for the right words, but they eluded her.Chris chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Save your breath, Liana. I'm not intimidated by empty threats

A lil bit of what the hell!
Liana and Richard's relationship had been tumultuous for the past few months, teetering on the edge of divorce. The tension between them often revolved around financial issues, with insults flying back and forth like verbal daggers. Despite Liana's determination to end the marriage, there lingered a strange sense of longing beneath the surface. Somehow she wanted Richard that night hence she went in for the kiss to which he was somewhat waiting although she could sense he pulled back for a minute when she initiated the kiss. Three to four months of distance and disagreement, murder attempt, hurt, pain, difficulty and whatnot retained Liana feeling exhausted and emotionally drained. Yet, amidst the turmoil, there remained a flicker of unresolved desire for Richard. Despite her efforts to push him away, she couldn't shake the memories of their shared intimacy.On this particular night, as Liana found herself alone in the dimly lit room, where he had somewhat been looking for whate

"It's been okay, just watched the news you bought a new company," she said as she looked at him at the side-eye. "Mum I just wish to be able to own lots of businesses before my legacy runs out look at Grandpa smiling," he said as his grandfather looked at him with a small smile. "I know son, why did you decide to choose Liana's company, it could get a lot of things wrong and you know this," she said as her dad held her hand. "I know mum I just want the problem to en-suite, there's always a plan mum," he said "Has Granddaddy taken his medicine? " he asked with the potential to change the topic at hand. "Yes, he has " Emily replied and a different conversation started talking of different things and how the businesses he had been handling had gotten so overwhelmingly well that at
