Chapter 62Derrick’s point of view The next morning I received a call from Stacy and she said she would be coming over to my house. I obviously couldn't say no so I directed her to here. I got up from bed after the call ended and walked into the bathroom, I washed up and left thereafter. I went downstairs and noticed Zora hadn't woken up yet.I sat on the couch for a while and I heard footsteps of someone coming downstairs so I turned and saw Zora who still looked sleepy. And I laughed a little as I noticed how she struggled to come down. “Zora, are you okay?” I moved to where she stood and held her hand. “Yes I am fine, I just need a glass of water, the water in my room has finished.” She explained and I nodded. “Alright go sit on the couch i’ll get you a glass of water,” I said and she bobbed her head and walked over to the couch, shortly after I brought water for her and she drank it and rested her hand properly on the couch. I noticed she slept off. I watched her while
Chapter 63Derrick's point of view “She is your what?!” Stacy shouted and I asked her to calm down. “Do you realize you are shouting?” My eyes widened, what if Zora hears her or something? “How did you guys get divorced, when did you even get married.” She looked surprised and also quite annoyed. “That was over 8 years ago….you need to calm down.” She didn't stop raising her voice. She was finally calm. “So you married Zora got divorced and got married to Mia and now you are in love with Zora again?” Her eyes widened in disbelief as she spoke. “I wasn't in love with her at first till we got divorced and now presently as we got back together due to work, I have grown deeply in love with her and I treated her badly when we were still together, I wonder if she would give me another chance,” I explained to Stacy and she shook her head. “How badly did you treat her that you can't confess your feelings to her,” Stacy asked and furrowed her brows.“Stacy, I treated her so badly that
Chapter 64Derrick’s point of view “What! I don't believe you.” She laughed and I couldn't stop myself from laughing also. “You don't believe me?” I asked her as we got into the car. “No, I don’t.” She laughed. “But why were you taking off my clothes?” She asked again. “I just wanted to make you warm… like skin-to-skin or something like that?” I tried to explain and she hit my arm. “It's better you keep it to yourself.” She spoke and I laughed. We drove home. I was done washing up so I sat in the living room and Lee and I were on the phone. We talked about a few things and I also asked him how he has been coping with the office. “Everything here is fine though, I'll send the sales record to you later.” He informed me. “Alright then, I'll arrive soon in no time once the business deal here is settled.” I said, I have really missed my work, my office, even my company as a whole, I honestly can’t wait to go back. “Derrick, let's leave that aside for now… what about Zora, you gu
Chapter 65Derrick’s point of view The next morning we were on the bed in one of the rooms downstairs. She was still sleeping peacefully, I was glad that what I had always wished for was finally coming into reality. I'll finally get Zora back, I want her back. I stared at her as she slept, she looked so peaceful, I rubbed her face gently and kissed her forehead softly. I can't wait to see you awake, there are so many things I want to tell you. I smiled and stood up gently so I wouldn't wake her, I moved to the bathroom and washed up. I was done so I went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast since we will be going to Mr Noah’s office today. I prepared scrambled eggs and I toasted some bread too. I was almost done, so I moved to the dining room to set it up before waking up my love. While doing that Zora walked in and I smiled and walked up to her. “Good morning,” I said and was about to kiss her neck but she suddenly stepped back. There was no single smile on her face. “Wha
Chapter 66Zora’s point of view We got home and I went to shower. I was done after a few minutes, and I wore shorts and a tank top. I sat on my bed and the thoughts of what happened today filled my mind, the way Derrick and I spoke, the nice places he took me to, and also the beautiful paintings and art we saw. I took out my phone and scrolled through the pictures we took. Derrick looked so handsome in them. Even the thoughts of when he wore his jacket on me, made me remember the night we were both stocked in that cold room. The way he talked about how he wanted to make me warmer also made me remember the night we were both intimate for the first time. I took pleasure during that sex and how he fucked me so hard. I would really want that again if I had the chance but I don't think that would happen. I picked up my phone again and watched his picture. I am certainly getting horny, I should hold myself. I was so bored and wasn't feeling sleepy at all, I should just go downstai
Chapter 67Zora’s point of view “Are we not going home?” Derrick asked and looked at me and I shook my head and smiled. “Let's go eat something,” I said and looked at him, he raised his brows slightly, still looking at me. “Alright.” He finally answered and looked outside the window. We finally got to the restaurant, a familiar place we'd eaten before. We got in and sat, we ordered what we wanted and a few minutes later we were served. I tried to make the us feel lively but Derrick wasn’t pulling that sand vibes back. We were done eating and ready to leave, Derrick called the waiter for the bill. “No, it is fine I’ll settle it,” I said and he looked up at me. “Why?” He asked as he laughed a little. I took out my debit card immediately and handed it to the waiter. “Zora you don’t have to…. Give her back her card.” Derrick disagreed and I frowned. “I suggested we come here so I should be the one footing the bills,” I said, still with a frown on my face. “You can't be with
Chapter 68Zora’s point of view We were done with dinner, and Derrick left for his room, he complained of a slight headache he was having, and just needed to rest a little. So I was left alone in the living room, I was so bored staying there so I went to the balcony to sit for a while. Ana and I video-chatted, and we talked for a long while to the point I was hoping Derrick wouldn't barge in and see me on a call with Derrick. Ariana will definitely call me mother when he steps in.I really wanted Derrick back but won't it be complicated? Accepting him back with so much to think about and a lot to say. I am not ready for it, please.We finally disconnected as we were done talking. The only thing that pains me right now is Austin. So ever since I traveled and left that house without taking Ana along he hasn't even visited her for once. Ana told me several times she calls him, it's either his busy or not in town or rather at work. She told me how she dislikes Austin now. I'm so wor
Chapter 69Zora’s point of view I didn’t realize I was smiling so much when he said that. “Alright then,” I said and looked out the window. He drove to most of the beautiful places I hadn’t seen before. To know the beauty of this city is always at night. We got to a place, where there were trees everywhere. How did Derrick know about these places? “Alright, let’s drop off here.” He uttered. “How come you knew about these places? When you never step out of the house except work.” I asked him and he laughed a little. “I have my ways of finding out, Zora.” He smiled. “You stay here.” He said and left the car, he walked to my door and opened it. I smiled and walked out of the car and he closed the door. “Let’s go.” He smiled and I nodded. We walked in and I noticed how everywhere was so dark. “Why is everywhere so dark?” I asked Derrick and he held my hand. “Should I make it brighter?” He asked and I furrowed my eyebrows. “How can you make it brighter?.” I asked him. “I will
