CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY Rina sat on the floor in the bathroom, she had left the shower on so she could cry and shout without anyone outside noticing even though she knew they wouldn't notice since the walls were soundproof and she had shut the door damn tight. She couldn't take Tyla's voice off her mind, the statement repeated itself severally in her ears and she tried to shut it off, but it wasn't working out. Of all the times, now that she had finally fallen for him, now that she had decided to be good, live a good life and make kids with him. She laughed warily. It seems fate has its own way of making decisions. She had finally become a first wife without even asking for it. Never in her wildest dreams would she think that something like this would actually happen. She didn't grow up in a polygamous family so she wouldn't want her kid to grow up in one as she knew about the issues that always resulted. She got under the running shower with her clothes on as the
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTY ONE Rina had woken up early, she rubbed her eyes as she looked at the time. It was almost four and she knew the whole house would still be asleep, so she had to be fast. She was going to her mother's place as the house felt too stuffy for her right now. She needed space so she could think and make decisions that would benefit her in the future. She took her bath hurriedly and when she finished dressing up, she took only a few things with her. She had just made it downstairs when she got thirsty. She shook her head with a dramatic sigh as she made it to the kitchen to take a glass of water. She opened the kitchen door and was about to go in when she saw Tyla, sitting on the kitchen counter while Owen made something for her. It was the same meal he wanted to make for her, but it actually ended as coal as that was the day they almost burned the whole house. Owen smiled when he saw her. He could see the eye bags beneath her eyes and it made his he
CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FOURTY TWO Rina glared daggers at Owen, he had provoked her and he wasn't going to hear the end of it. Owen couldn't help but tower over her as he was a few inches taller than her and she hated that fact now. “Babe..” Owen started as he touched her face, her cheeks in particular. But she yanked his hand off with force. He kept his hands to himself but he still said what he wanted to anyways. “I'm sorry Rina, I know I did you wrong, I broke the promises I made to you and I regret it deeply. But I do not know how to break it down to you that shit happened and no matter what, I can not change back the hand of time. I just promise that it won't repeat itself next time. Please” Owen said to her, but he could see that she was not relenting. It seemed as if his words made her more angry. “Save that story for another day, I will just have you know that Tyla or whatever you call her and I will not live together in this house, that shit ain't gonna happen, I'll
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY THREE Rina was shocked by the way he acted, Owen had never raised his voice at her since the beginning of their relationship and she couldn't understand why he did now. She looked at him as if he had grown row heads. “What's wrong Owen?” She asked as he heaved. He looked at her, his eyes red with anger. “You said it and you did it” he said with a low chuckle that sounded like an evil cackle. She looked at him with surprise. She didn't know what he was trying to say. “What the hell are you talking about here?” She asked, she was getting to understand what he was trying to say. “Just yesterday you found out about the pregnancy and you decided to mend her life today. How heartless can you be Rina? Even if you hate the mother, for God's sake, can't you even think of the unborn child?” Owenbm yelled at her. Rina was shocked. She felt as if a drum was in her head and it was being hit by Owen's words. She never imagined Owen could blame her for
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR Kate stretched her hands on the bed, in an attempt to place her hand over something, or someone rather, but she couldn't feel anything. She tried again and it was the saw thing. She opened her eyes with a disapproving grumble. Mario was nowhere to be found and his side of the bed was cold. She stretched her body before getting up from the bed. ‘where could he be?’ She wondered as she went into the bathroom to rinse her mouth. He was not there either. She decided to take her bath at once as it was late already and she had to report to work. She had been slacking lately due to the issues she was having. She took her bath, she paid extra attention to her face as she was sure she was getting old with the stress of the past few days. She got into the walk-in closet and choosed a simple and comfortable outfit. Luxury had never been her thing. She came out of the room, all dressed up and ready for work, there was still no sign of Mario, but
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE Kate ran upstairs to change her clothes and she had just taken off the ones she was putting on when she saw him come into the walk-in closet. She heard him draw closer but she continued with what she was doing even though she felt really shy under his heated gaze. She felt his hands on her waist and he wrapped his hands around her. His cold hands around her hot body made her shiver,but not out of cold, she shivered because of the growing sensation in her body. He whispered into her ear. “How bout we just go back to bed and let me worship your body?” He whispered into her ear and her whole body felt weird. She could tell that she was falling for his charms but she couldn't possibly let him have his way, she was getting late for work and she couldn't afford to miss too as that wouldn't be a good example to others. A leader leads by example. “Nah, I'll pass” She said as she wriggled herself out of his arms. She moved to take the clothe
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SIX Tamara cried her heart out, she had thought about what her son had said and she had surmised that it was her fault totally. He had told her that he had everything under control and he was doing perfectly fine, but she was just too concerned about his safety and she had ended up hurting him in the process. She hated to see him in that state, and having him remind her everyday that it was her fault only made her hurt more. She stood up from the bed as she walked to the bathroom. She washed her face and took her bath before coming out. When she was done, she went back to bed. She was too tired to go out so she took the duvet and covered herself in it. She had no company to go to, and neither did she have any appointments to honor, sos wh could do as she liked without any worries. She had almost fallen asleep when she heard a soft knock on her door. She knew it wasn't Daniel as he didn't knock whenever he wanted to come into her room. She stoo
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVEN “She is not your mother and the fact that you are repeating that word makes me want to end her so bad, and I would likely do that in front of you” Danny yelled this time, her anger was slowly rising to.the surface and Rina was only adding to it. “Unfortunately, we both know that you can't do that” Rina said with an evil chuckle. Danny cocked a brow at her, prompting her to explain. “We both know you can't end Rosemary, because if you do that, you'll have to end me too and I do not think you're good enough to do that” she paused for a while. “Odds are, if you don't, then you got yourself a vengeful daughter and about a thousand more enemies on your tail. You wouldn't live to see another week if you do that” He ended with a cute smile and she could see that Danny was taken. She chuckled lightly after a while. “I do know you are right Rina, but I think k you need to see things from my own perspective” she paused and Rina shrugged , urgi
