Chapter 113 LESLIE "I hope so too. So, what were you up to since?" He asked. He moved closer to me and wrapped his arms around my shoulders. I glared at him and removed his hand from my shoulders and moved a little. "I just watched TV and ate popcorn, just that." I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly. "Do you want to perhaps go out and have fun before you get ready to leave for the hospital?" Caden asked. "The elevator. I can't walk down the stairs." I replied. "I will give you a piggyback ride." He replied with a wink. "Forget it." I eyed him. "Anyway, I want to sleep. You can go out on your own." I told him and left to the bedroom. "Really babe? You want me to go on my own?" Caden laughed. I waved my hand at him and plonked myself hard on the bed. I felt movement on the bed and when I turned, Caden was lying beside me on the bed. He was under the duvet with me and our faces were so close that we were almost almost breathing thr same air. Our faces were just few inches apa
Chapter 114 LESLIE I got to the hospital and took the stairs to Lauren's room. On getting there, she did not look too pleased to see me but I did not care. "Hey Lauren, how are you?" I asked as I dropped the basket of fruits and flowers I bought on the way. "I thought you weren't going to come after speaking so rudely to me the previous day," Lauren said begrudgingly. "I won't be leaving until two days later. I think I have overstayed my welcome," I said and shrugged my shoulders. "Where is mom?" I asked as I looked around the room and noticed mom wasn't there. "She went to get coffee." Lauren replied. We both did not say anything while Lauren just went back to reading the novel she was reading before I came in. I just sat down close to the window. I climbed on the chair on my knees and looked outside the window. I smiled as I saw the beautiful view outside and the flowers that were planted. It was a place that would give people that felt like dying to live. I opened the w
Chapter 115CADENI saw Lauren leaving the room quietly as if she was in a hurry but I did not want to ask her where she was headed this early.Minutes later, she was back and she immediately went into the bathroom. I sat on top of the bed and waited for her to come inside the room.She was startled to see me awake. "Babe? Where did you go this early?" I asked her softly."Huh. It's nothing serious. I will get ready to prepare breakfast now," She simply replied and left the room.She was definitely up to something but I did not know what it was. I sighdd and got down from the bed.LESLIE The next morning before Caden woke up, I quietly left the house and went to the pharmacy. I bought a pregnancy test strip and went back to the house.I got into the bathroom and did as instructed. My heart was thumping so loudly. I was so nervous."Please, it shouldn't happen. It shouldn't be what I'm thinking about." I mentally cried in my head as I awaited the result.I removed my hand nervously
Chapter 116LAUREN"Why would you do that Lauren?" Mom yelled at me after I explained to her what happened between Leslie that made her pass out the time she was here.Mom has been on my neck for days trying to get what actually happened and after much persuasion, I finally gave in and told her the whole truth.I didn't expect her to get so mad at me and react the way she just did."Mom, you didn't have to yell at me like that." I frowned at her.I'm the victim here and she is supposed to side with me and not Leslie."That could have been dangerous and you shouldn't use violence. You know right now that she is married to Caden as you and I have told you not to worry about it.In your marriage certificate, it is your name and your signature that was used. So, what is the problem?" Mom asked as she placed her palm on her forehead.She looked as if she was frustrated and tired because of me."Caden is the problem mom. His heart is the problem. Do you think he will fall in love with me an
Chapter 117CADENAfter taking my bath, I got dressed and sat down on the bed beside Lauren.She was focused on her phone. My phone started ringing and it was an unknown number. I left the room to answer the call."Caden Max Holton speaking." I spoke up."Oh! There is a drunk girl here who is causing damage to the club in our hotel here. She is a famous model and some people here are taking pictures of her in this state. I think it's going to be all over the news by tomorrow.She unlocked her phone and asked me to call Caden in her contacts and that's what I just did. She is really drunk, sir." A male voice spoke from the other side of the phone."Shit!" I cussed underneath my breathe. I knew it was Tessa that he was referring to. I didn't even realize that I didn't save her contact in my phone.If the pictures or videos go viral, it will definitely affect the company and I cannot afford to allow the company fall into crisis because of one model's mistake."Text me the hotel name and
Chapter 118TESSATESSAI smirked when the drug kicked in. He even made it easier for me by drinking the whole content of his drink.He staggered back and forth abd tried to hold himself but he could not as the drug was already setting in.I helped him out of the bar and to the hotel room I booked earlier.It wasn't easy assisting him alone as he had weight, but I didn't care because I knew what I was going to achieve.I opened the hotel room with the card and I pushed Caden on the bed and he fell hard on it. I breathed out tiredly and stretched out my hurting arms because of his weight.I helped him pull his shoes and started unbuttoning his shirt.I successfully took off his shirt and I smirked at his gracious body.I was definitely going to have a taste of what it feels like to be under a man like Caden even if he might not remember what happened between us.I took off his trousers and he was left only on his briefs.I laid on top of him and just when I tried to pull down his remai
Chapter 119CADENThe next morning, I woke up to see Lauren sitting on the bed as if she was waiting for me."Good morning." She greeted me with a smile when she saw that I was awake."Good morning babe. Did you sleep well?" I asked her with a smile and tried to kiss her but she turned her face away. She just nodded her head and handed me her phone.I rubbed my eyes and sat up properly on the bed and took her phone looking confused.I looked at her phone and pictures of Tessa and I in an intimate position. That wasn't all, there was also a video of Tessa showing the messy room of our clothes on the floor and herself in a towel."Did something happen between us?" I found myself asking no one in particular.I was dumbfounded.I turned to Lauren."This is not what happened okay? I can explain," I said but then I sighed. "There is nothing I have to say, I'm sorry." I apologized instead."Just tell me what happened because I believe you. I did feel bad after seeing these last night and it
Chapter 120CADENAfter taking the hot tea Lauren made, we both went upstairs.We both went to bed and when Lauren had fallen asleep, my phone beeped. I groaned tiredly.I didn't want to read the message but another beep came and I took my phone from the stand and sat up from the bed.I opened my message and I was surprised to see pictures and videos of Tessa and I in the hotel room.Just like the one Lauren had shown me.I called the number immediately and the person answered."You called immediately," Tessa's voice from the other side of the phone said mockingly."What was that about?" Was the first thing I said to her. I was literally fuming with anger."What do you think it is? It's a blackmail. Divorce your wife and come to me then I would delete them but if you don't agree, I would send it to the news station." Tessa stated."You must be out of your mind! What kind of delusional thoughts are those?" I almost yelled at her but I reduced my voice so I would not wake Lauren up and
