ANMELDENLyra “For the umpteenth time, where are you taking me Zane Ashford?” I teased while he looked at me and burst into laughter. I was soon infected and started laughing too. “And for the umpteenth time, I’m not telling you because it’s a surprise. We will soon be there and you will see things for yourself so relax my beautiful wife.” He replied and I felt warmth gush over me as he called me his wife. I sneaked a peek at him and then quickly looked away before he noticed. He has been so sweet on me that I sometimes find it too good to be true. Without knowing it, I find myself doubting him and looking for reasons to convince myself that he’s playing me. But then, he proves me wrong every time. I’d been so worried a couple of days ago when June pulled such switch on me. One minute she was apologizing and promising to make things right. And the next minute, she’s yelling and threatening me. I was so disturbed but Zane didn’t give room for it at all. He cheered me up and assured me they
LyraZane was the happiest when I was finally discharged to leave the hospital. He was all smiles and wouldn’t stop kissing me. He wouldn’t even let the driver do his work. He sent him away and drove us home himself.“Hey babe, how are we doing back there? He asked while peeping through the rearview mirror. I smiled and winked at him and that made him blush.“We are doing fine.” I replied and he smiled back too.He went on talking to me about everything that happened at the hospital when he rushed me there up until two days later that I woke up. I was laughing all through till I started feeling sleepy. He noticed when my responses became short and once he knew I wanted to sleep, he started singing to me. “We are home now,” he whispered to me and when I opened my eyes, I saw we were in front of the house.“No, no, you’re not stressing yourself walking all the way inside when I’m right here.” He chimed in and when I wanted to protest, he shut me up with a kiss. “I can’t even believe t
JuneI thought Zane was joking when he fired me and I didn’t take him seriously at first. Even Jeff thought he was only being emotional and didn’t mean it, but then, Zane didn’t back down. He insisted we both leave and even asked Jeff not to call him until he’s ready to talk to him. Jeff still didn’t he was being serious but he still asked us to leave so I left with him. “Relax, you know he doesn’t mean any of that. He’s just not in a good place at the moment. His wife and child are in the hospital so it’s only natural that his dkotions will be all over the place. Just go home and stay calm. I’m sure he will call you when he’s calm.” Jeff said to me on the way to my house. “What really happened though? You just said something came up at the office, what happened?” He asked but I wasn’t even in the mood for long talks. “I really can’t say right now. I’ll call you later when I’m a bit calm and we can talk about it.” I replied and he didn’t push further. He dropped me off at my plac
Zane “She’s going to be fine, huh? You just need to stay strong for her and the baby.” My mom whispered while holding me tightly. I couldn’t say a word, I have only talked a few times since the last two days that I brought Lyra here. I haven’t eaten, bath, or even left the hospital. And sleep, that seem to be lost in my life right now. Anything I close my eyes, I start having really bad dreams where I lost Lyra or the baby. They are always so scary and horrible so I stopped trying to sleep. The doctor keep assuring me that everything will be fine but it’s been two days and Lyra is still in coma. Each time that I go to her and peep through the door, I feel a part of my die.“Just keep the hope alive.” My dad chimed in and I managed to nod as I still couldn’t find the right words. They had been with me all day and were about leaving when a nurse who had just gone in to check on Lyra, suddenly came out running and calling out to another nurse to get the doctor. “Oh my God!” I finall
Zane I wasn’t sure if it was my mind playing tricks on me or if it was really true. I was completely engrossed in the pitch I was giving when I noticed a familiar figure. It looked exactly like my wife but when I looked in the direction, it was no longer there. My mind kept telling it was Lyra but there was no way that was possible. She never mentioned anything about coming to the office and even if she planned on making it a surprise, she wouldn’t come straight to the conference room. I know her that well, she wouldn’t want to distract us. I shook off the thought and went on with my speech. I was soon done and when I took my seat, my phone lit up and texts messages from Lyra came in a rush. I scrolled through and then realized I wasn’t imagining things. Lyra was really here. I knew I could’ve keep her waiting. I have to quickly go to her so I immediately scanned the room for June. I wanted to inform her before leaving but she was nowhere to be found. She probably saw Lyra first
LyraIt’s been two weeks since Zane made it his life’s mission to win my heart over and it’s just so surprising to see him make such amazing efforts. I mean, I never knew he had it in him to be so intentional but he has been doing a great job of convincing me otherwise.I can’t even remember all the gifts he has gotten me, they are so much. He literally gets me gift everyday, once he goes out, he comes home with something wrapped for me. For the first few days, I wasn’t moved because I thought he was going to stop soon but it’s been two weeks and there’s no sign of him stopping anytime soon. We’ve gone out on numerous dates and even business meetings together, and one thing that always stands out is the way he shows me off in front of everyone. He has taken to on a few meetings and work dinners in the past but he was never that sweet. Now, it’s just like a different person entirely. He almost didn’t go to work this morning as he was all over me and didn’t want to leave. But he has a
Zane“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” I kept screaming and slamming hard at the steering wheel. I just couldn’t believe how everything changed in a second. I left the office in high spirit, hoping to come home, eat food and sleep well but then, that silly ass had to ruin the whole thing for me.I mean who in e
LyraThe ride home was a really quiet one. No one said a word and I just looked out the window the whole time. I didn’t know what to do or expect at this point but one thing was sure, they’d demand for answers. Even if Rose doesn’t, Henry would want to know how I got pregnant when in the space of b
Lyra"Right here," a deep, familiar voice sounded from behind while I stiffened. I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was. His voice and the look on Rosemary’s face already gave it away. “Mom, dad. I’m sorry I’m late, I was on a call with the London office.” He chimed in while I finally tur
Lyra Just a week ago, the stack of hundreds had felt like a slap in the face when they hit the bed but now, they were my lifesaver. I looked up and saw my Birkin bag sitting pretty by the dresser. Of course, it looked out of place, it’s the only luxury I have left of my former life. I’ve spent t
