GENESIS I glared at Jordan, completely spooked by the piece of information he just gave me. If he noticed my glaring, he didn’t show it, because he was busy getting cereal from the cupboard. He dropped it on the table, stole a glance at me and went ahead to get some plates. Then he came back to the table and helped himself with the cereal while I simply glared at him. When he was done, he passed me a plate but food was no longer important to me anymore. We were going to have dinner with his parents, not just Leona but his dad. Liam did not like me, the way he stares at me, the way he hates me, his cold expression, his scaring demeanor and the last time he had seen me. No, I could not have dinner with them and he knew about this, he knew that I could not sit and have dinner with him and that was why he saved me from his mother earlier, how could suddenly have accepted. “Come on, eat,” he pushed the plate towards me and handed me a spoon.

    GENESIS Slowly, gently, I turned around and came face to face with the woman that tormented my life. She was dressed in an expensive black gown that stopped below her knees and a white fur coat. She had a white heels and a bag to go and I must say she looked quite expensive. I wondered where she was getting the money from because the last I remembered, she was broke and was rather a gold digger who was simply after Jordan’s wealth. Jordan was still holding me as he was and also turned to Samantha as well. She had a smile on her face, one of confidence and beauty and I wanted so bad to wipe it off her face. “You seem to forget something, Genesis,” she replied me and came a bit closer with elegant step like she was an empress. “It was never about papers and signatures, neither was it ever about promises and wedding bell. It was not about regality and legality, it was about the heart and not about the one who lives in the ho

  GENESISTurning to him, I felt shocked at the calm and sensibility in his tone. I expected him to yell again or glare at me and just leave just as I had told him to, but he didn’t, instead he wanted us to sit down and talk about what was making me so angry. He sounded mature and very reasonable and for a moment there, I felt like the foolish person for flaring out the way I did.“Please,” he urged as he looked up at me. I sighed heavily and sat down just as he had asked. We did not say anything to each other after and for a while, we remained in that silence.“What is it?” he broke the silence and I groaned. I could not believe that he was asking me that, he had been the one to make me so angry, how could he be asking me such a question.“Can you just say something? I have things that I’m more concerned about,” he groaned as well and I turned to him. I glared even harder at him an

   GENESISI was still at the door with a shawl wrapped around me and cold eating into my bones, when Jordan’s car rode into the compound. I waited till it stopped right in front of me and I ran to it. The guards came out and opened the back seat, then I watched as they did what they had to do to get him out. With two men holding on to him with his hands over their shoulders, he staggered out, muttering incoherent words to himself with his legs unable to hold him. my heart broke into a thousand pieces as I stared at the man who was in front of me and found a stranger. His hair was in a mess, his shirt untucked and his tie lose. I turned to the guards beside him and glared at him.“You allowed him drink to this?” I snapped and they lowered their gaze instantly.“We could not stop him..”“Are you mad?” I yelled and they lowered their gaze again.“Be hopeful that no

   GENESISI stomped back to my room with a lot of thought running through my mind. could it be that he was not drunk? Could he have been pretending? He had kissed me intentionally then, he remembered everything and still lied to my face. Why? Was the nagging question in my mind. And not having any answer to his question made me feel even more stupid. But why was I really angry?He had attempted to lie to me, he had attempted to treat me like a fool and pretend like nothing happened, that was why I was angry. He did something wrong and should apologize for it, but he wanted to ignore it and not own up for what he did. I would have to be the one who would have to carry the burden of knowing what he did. Shutting the door behind me, I took a deep breath and turned to the bathroom. I took of my cloth and got under the shower. I shrieked when I mistakenly turned on the cold water and turned it off quickly. it was
