Chapter 121

Patrick Banks

~•~

“You really have some nerves showing your face here.” My mother’s angry voice echoed from behind me as I made my way to the car.

I closed my eyes momentarily, letting out a quiet sigh before turning around to meet her gaze. “Can you not cause a scene here? People are watching.”

She glared at me. “What? You don’t want everyone to know that you killed your brother and still came to his funeral to speak without permission?”

I shook my head. “How long will you continue to go on with this narrative?” I asked, raising a brow at her. “If you don’t stop calling me a murderer, I’ll have to sue you for defamation of character.” I threatened, my voice firm.

But I didn’t mean it.

Even though her recent behavior was getting on my last nerves, I couldn’t do something like that to my mother. I just hoped that it was a phase that would eventually pass away.

She was still grieving, hence, her behavior — at least that was the line I used to console myself and make m

    Chapter 135Valerie Will ~•~“Hey.” My voice was low. “Where are you, Valerie?” My mom’s concerned voice echoed from the other end of the line. I let out a deep sigh. Even if she hadn’t said it, I knew Patrick must’ve asked her to call me. Since I blocked both numbers, he had no choice but to run to my mother. “I’m not home. Why are you asking?” I demanded, pretending I had no idea why she asked. “Is everything okay with Liam?” My mother let out a soft chuckle. “What happened? Why did you leave the villa? You were meant to stay there for three days.” I scoffed. “Patrick should find someone else to play with,” I replied, rolling my eyes. “I don’t have time for his silly games.” She exhaled sharply. “Everything seemed fine yesterday. What went wrong?” She asked with a hint of curiosity in her voice. I honestly didn’t want to discuss our problems with my mother. “He could have told you when he asked you to call me. I don’t want to talk about it.” “Are you sure?” She asked, her

    Chapter 134Valerie Will ~•~I clutched the phone tighter, letting out a deep sigh. “Nothing…..I just wanted to talk to you.” I replied, my voice calm and precise. Jamal responded with a chuckle. “Talk? About what?” I closed my eyes briefly, sitting up on the bed. “I just wanted to see how you were doing. It’s been a long time since we spoke to each other.” Jamal sighed. “You should be happy I even answered your call.” My heart shattered at his words. “You just called on a good day.” I held back a scoff. But could I even blame him for his reaction? “I guess enough….I’m grateful alone for the fact that you answered the call.” I admitted, my voice low. “Jamal, I owe you an apology.” He didn’t respond, so I guess he was waiting for the apology. I cleared my throat and continued. “I’m sorry for cheating on you with Patrick. That was very selfish and stupid of me.” “Is that all?” He asked, his tone sharper. I nodded slowly. “Yeah. But I’m also sorry for ruining our relationship

    Chapter 133Valerie Will ~•~As soon as my eyes fluttered open in the morning, I picked up my phone and booked a ride back home. I already spent the entire night crying and packing up my bags. I just couldn’t believe Patrick. After assuring me that Madison didn’t mean anything to him, he was still in contact with her. ‘Thanks for last night’. I scoffed as I remembered the text. Did he think I was a child? Why was he trying to convince me that I was taking the text out of context? What other explanation would justify that text? Patrick knew how I felt about Madison. I could see the guilt in his eyes — that alone was enough to tell me what I needed to hear. And the fact that he couldn’t even take her call in front of me made everything worse. He messed around with her and still had the guts to sleep with me the next day. I felt so stupid. Why did I always end up making dumb choices? I should’ve known better. What was I even thinking about going on a trip with him? It wasn’t lik

    Chapter 131Patrick Banks ~•~“Try again, Madison?” I asked with a scoff. “Don’t say something like that anymore.” “Why?” She breathed, a hint of disappointment in her voice. “You know that Valerie is still in the picture.” She scoffed bitterly. “But you guys aren’t even together.” That sentence was triggering but I tried my best to stay calm. “It doesn’t matter. We are having a baby together and you need to respect that.” Madison let out a humorless chuckle. “Are you forgetting the fact that you knew me before her? Have you forgotten about all the good times we shared?” I closed my eyes briefly, letting out a deep sigh. “Valerie and I were married. We had a baby together.” I replied, my voice sharper than I had intended. “But you…..us….we were just in a relationship.” “So our relationship didn’t mean anything to you?” She asked, her voice low. “You’re just going to toss me away like I never meant anything to you.” I let out a deep exhale. “I’m not even meant to be talking to

    Chapter 131Patrick Banks ~•~I didn’t ignore the call because I was guilty of something. I just knew Valerie would get the wrong idea if she saw Madison’s name flashing across my screen. The only thing I could think of was flipping the phone to the other side. But when a text came in, she grabbed the phone before I could even move. I didn’t want to drag it from her, so I just stayed still. But I had to take it when I saw the look on her face after reading the text. Her lips were pressed so tightly together like she was psychically holding back the words she wanted to throw at me. I opened my mouth to speak, but words didn’t come out. How could I possibly explain the text she had just seen? We just stayed at each other in silence, the only sound coming from the violinist. Finally, I cleared my throat. “It’s not what you think,” I muttered. She exhaled sharply. “Thank you for dinner.” She shook her head and stood up from the chair. We hadn’t even gone halfway through the night

    Chapter 130Valerie Will~•~Just like Patrick had promised, it turned out to be one of the most unforgettable sex experiences of my life. I mean, I had never done it while pregnant before. I didn’t know what I was expecting, but it turned out great. “What does this mean?” Patrick asked as we cuddled on the bed. I shrugged. “I don’t want to talk about it. Let’s just enjoy the moment.” The truth was that I wasn’t sure if I was ready to get back together with him. I mean, he really hurt me in the past and I still felt like it would be stupid to give him a second chance. I also wondered what people would say about me. The blogs would definitely make me feel so terrible about myself. They would twist the news into something ugly and use my past to haunt me. Could I even blame them? Even if Patrick tried his best to erase it from the internet, I was sure that some people still had it saved on their phones — the sex tape my sister made with him.I could get past that part. Maybe on
