Charlene had tried to start a conversation with him but whenever she brought up a topic he ignored completely as if she was never talking to him. It wasn't like he derived happiness in doing so but he thought it was the best thing to do. Javier thought if he gave her a space it would be better than being close to her and became a disaster in her marriage.When the time was up Javier went over and submitted his booklet. Charlene saw him heading out of the lecture theatre, she was almost done, she scribbled the last answer, she packed up and walked up to the invigilator who was standing next to the desk. She dropped her answer booklet, the invigilator looked at her and smiled brightly. Charlene shrugged off, she strode to where her backpack was, she carried it and exited the lecture theatre. She looked round in search for him, she was perturbed as needed to talk to him. “Hey, Charlene.” Fiona appeared behind her, Charlene pivoted to look at her. She raised an inquiry brow while keepin
Miguel never allowed his babysitter or Richard to separate him from Charlene. When Charlene attempted to lay him in his crib, he grabbed her hair and cried out loud like a baby that had been taken away from his mother forcefully. Charlene had no other choice than to take him back to their room after feeding him his food. Charlene laid him beside her, whenever Richard tried to touch him he always crawled to Charlene and hugged her. “Seriously, Miguel?” He was surprised when he rejected him again.Charlene spared him an apologetic countenance before looking at Miguel. Richard scoffed softly, he turned to the other side and covered his body with the duvet.Miguel gurgled at her and extended his hands to her, gesticulating to her to carry her. Charlene remembered the book she left because of him, she needed to read but Miguel didn't give her a chance. She sighed, she caressed his face and smiled brightly at him.“Time to sleep, Miguel.” Charlene made to cover him up with his blanket but
Richard woke to a terrible hangover, he lingered in bed, ignoring his phone as he kept ringing. His eyes were tightly closed, roaming his right hand on the bed he rolled over to the edge. “Holy shit! My head,” He put a hand on his and groaned silently. Slowly he opened his eyes, almost all the lights in the room were off except the spotlight above the bed, he scanned the room without sitting up. “My head hurts.” He groaned. He extended his hand on the bed and took his phone, he gasped surprisingly when he saw it was five o'clock AM. He sat up abruptly and held his head. He ruffled his hair and glanced around the room. He furrowed his brows puzzlingly when he noticed she wasn't in bed with him.“Where is she?” He asked himself, wondering where Charlene could be. Suddenly he felt the urge of vomiting, he climbed down the bed and went to the bathroom. He vomited, rinsed his mouth and stared at his reflection in the mirror. Obviously he looked a mess, he held his head, trying to recall
She already informed Charles that he would be the one to drive her to the mansion since she thought calling James wasn't necessary. They both headed toward the parking lot and that was when her phone rang. She looked at Charles helplessly. “I have to pick this call.” She was surprised when she checked the call ID. ‘Richard?’ She lifted a brow and picked up with reluctance.“Are you done at school?” Charlene glanced at Charles' face, puzzled. She furrowed her brow. Instantly Charles concluded in his thought that it was him or no one else. She cleared her throat before replying. “Yes, I'm on my way heading home.”“Guess, you're at the car park. Look over, I'm waiting for you.” Charlene glanced around the parking lot, only his car was different. “I can see you.”She hung up and pivoted to Charles. “Richard is here.” She murmured.Charles chuckled when he saw his car. He winked at her teasingly. “I believe he saved me from stress. Go for it. I'm going to call you tonight, we have someth
Luciana invited him so they could talk about Henrietta, she implored him to allow the contract to be assigned to Henrietta but Richard never agreed. Luciana sent a text message to Henrietta to come upstairs, however she was at the door when she heard the whole conversation. She felt terrible, there was no other way to convince Richard if his mother couldn't convince him. She turned around and left disappointedly. She was about to leave the party when she saw Charlene excusing herself from others, without thinking twice she followed her. She stood behind her while she was on the phone call, she was literally jealous because she believed Charlene was the reason Richard refused to give their love a second chance.Richard looked around for her, he sauntered to his friends and asked where Charlene was, Devyn pointed at the direction he believed she would be. Jeremy rose, both of them headed toward the direction while talking. Jeremy saw Henrietta pushing her, Richard didn't notice. When h
For the past few days Charlene noticed something unusual about him, he wasn't harsh on her like before. Sometimes he was grumpy but not like before, Charlene thought he was being nice because of what happened and she was yet to understand him. Today was her birthday, of course she and Charles were going to celebrate their birthday. Normally Charles used to be the first person to wish her or Javier, they always competed. She wondered if her 24th birthday would go well now that she wasn't living with her parents anymore. The continuous beeping of her phone woke her, she removed the nightmask she used to blinded her eyes. She glanced at the other side and Richard wasn't in bed with her, she scanned the bedroom but he wasn't in the room. She sighed after checking the radio clock, she believed he had left for work.She extended her hand to the nightstand, she picked the phone and checked. There were tons of wishes. She didn't bother to read the messages, she dropped her phone on the bed,
She waited for his lips to touch her hers, instead of a light or passionate kiss Richard leaned his mouth to her ears then spoke. He figured out what she was expecting but he never intended to kiss her. “Make a wish and I'm going to grant it.” He whispered to her ear.Charlene pokily opened her eyes in embarrassment. She believed her expectation was high, nevertheless Richard never expressed a slight emotion so it was hard for her to know if he was getting fond of her or if it had always been the same. “Yes?” She flustered at him steadily.“Ask for anything.” He repeated. After all Richard had reasons for telling Charlene to make a wish, as he saw it merely looking into her eyes, the desire and desperation were obvious. She gawked at his eyes. “A wish? You'll do anything I want?” She asked to confirm what he said, he nodded. Charlene released a long breath, she gazed steadily into his eyes as both of them were close, with his right partially wrapped around her waist even if she wasn'
A sensation ran down her spine, the new feeling was something Charlene couldn't decipher, her stomach twitched as he tickled her lower lips while sending a thrilling sensation down her spine. She didn't reciprocate because she was yet to recover from the shock. Richard kissing her was supposed to be a nightmare however it was a reality,he was really kissing her and she couldn't do anything. He smooched her lips like he had been craving for them for so long, he curled up his arm behind her neck like he couldn't get enough of her. His hands were all over her body, caressing her. He would never know what he was doing to her.Charlene lifted her hand with reluctance but she hung it halfway close to his head. She was thoughtful of her action, there was no way she would push him away because he was her husband, and if she pulled back to stop him she wasn't sure she wouldn't regret it later. She remained obedient, allowing him to satisfy himself after she had made up her mind to stop him if
