ALLYSA'S POV I stood on my feet, following him swiftly. It's already dark so where exactly was he going to? My heart skipped as I recalled our wedding night. He'd gone out and we still faced the consequences till today, now this?“Lucas, where are you going to? Lucas!” I yelled as he got to the car.He opened the door but I shut it and leaned on the door. “Aren't you tired of treating me like shit? I've apologized, begged, I've done what every reasonable wife would do so tell me where I went wrong and for the record Lucas__” I paused and turned to look around.“I don't even know what sex feels like, you were my first kiss, first intimate touch,first everything so why won't you believe me.”“You told me you weren't a virgin.” He fired.“I guess I lied!” I fired angrily,the tears was rolling freely down my cheeks but I didn't care. “Lucas, I know I wanted this marriage to end, I didn't want to get married and all but now? I do with all my heart. I want this marriage to work, I want t

ALLYSA'S POV “Did he come in last night? Did he sleep in the other bedroom?” I spoke to my self, deeply wishing he'd done that then I'll be really happy but as I opened the door to each of the bedrooms, my worst fear came crashing down on me. He didn't return home last night, he didn't pick his calls and he didn't care to tell me where he spent the night.I finished dressing up, took my bag and was about stepping out of the bedroom when he bumped into me.He looked like he had a rough night but asides that, he looked clean.“Where did you spend the night?” It came out before I could reason properly and stop my mouth from uttering nonsense.“You didn't pick your calls, didn't text back either. You ghosted me Lucas, you ghosted your wife!” I promised myself I wasn't going to cry over him but the tears were piling up and my throat was in a tight knot.“Allysa calm down, I spent the night at Jack's place of course I went to the club to clear my head and then I went over to his place.” He

LUCAS POV “I ask again, what do you want?” “It's quite simple, I'll give you my terms and conditions, you're to dance to my tune, do not, I repeat do not test me, do not try to act smart, I'm not a nice person.” She said and poured some wine into the second glass.“You should have some, it's gonna be a lengthy discussion and you might become thirsty.” I scoffed and looked away.“Get on with whatever you wanna say, I'm running impatient.” She chuckled, shaking her head.“Oh but our time together just begun, we still have half an hour together.”“Why did you record us having sex?” I asked,anger lacing my speech.“I believe you're not so dumb and you should know where this conversation is heading to, ever since our encouter I've always wanted to have you as mine but of course you just wouldn't let me close to you.”“I'm married!”“I'm not done talking.” She fired, sipping her wine and licking her lips.“Of course I know you're married do not rub it on my face. All I wanted was you atte

LUCAS POV As I walked into my office, Jack was already seated with his legs crossed over each other on the table. He brought them down immediately our eyes locked.“Hey man,” I placed my bag on the table and got down to work. “Lucas.” He called, looking skeptically at me as I shuffled through the mails in my laptop.“Are you okay man?”“Of course I'm not, she called before I could even get home yesterday and guess what, she wants us to meet up today.” I sighed, rubbing my jaw tiredly.“What the hell, meet up? Is she okay?”“I don't think she's okay man, she's psychotic.” Jack shook his head and stood on his feet.“You're not going alone. Even if I don't get to go in, I'm going with you I'll stay in the car and I'll give you hints on how to go about the meeting if not you'll find yourself in her bed again.”“Hell no, I'm never getting myself sexually involved with her again.”“I'm glad you're learning.”Three hours later, Jack and I sat in the car outside the luxurious restaurant as h

ALLYSA'S POV It's been a week since the lawsuit was delivered to Miss Charlotte and I've not heard anything from her. During these days, Lucas and I had grown much more closer but just yesterday I noticed him withdrawing into his shell again.He went to bed without speaking to me and right now I really don't know what to do. I picked my phone and dialed Ivy's number. My parents has never tried to reach me since that party and I wasn't surprised about my dad but my mom? “Hey, how are you doing Ivy?” I asked, walking towards the window.“I'm good but from the sound of your voice I can tell you're not fine.” She said as I sighed.“I'm really tired, Lucas is almost going back to his actual self and it's alarming.”“Do you realize people go through stress managing huge companies like his? And I'll tell you this maybe it's his way of dealing with the stress, do not think about it.” She said as I sighed.“You think so?” “I know so Allysa, have you spoken to granny concerning the set up of
