Chapter fifty six
CHAPTER 56
"Freya, she's gone", Andre reminds me. I close my eyes and gulp. I am not shocked at the fact that Andre told Michelle that I am his girlfriend, I am not shocked that he threatened to sue her because of me and I am not shocked to see him fire her."Andre", I call and he comes close to me. My body is trembling. "Didyouhearwhatshesaid?" I don't even know if what I'm saying is making any sense to Andre. I said it in a rush. I am too shaken to think."I don't get you", he raises a brow in confusion."Did you hear what she said?""That's why I fired her", he replies."No, she said something before that." I shake my head."What did she say?" He ask.A tear roll down my eyes. "Baxter is responsible for the accident.""What? How did you know that?" I am now in his arms."She said Baxter made a mistake. I am supposed to be 6 feets deep down the ground."He sighs. "That isn't enough to......""It's Baxter, Andre", I try toRelated chapters

CHAPTER 57"I will like to call on the victim, Freya Standford", my attorney says.It is the fifth day of Baxter's trial. I am sitting next to Andre whose arm is around my shoulder. Before I stand up, he gives my hand me a soft squeeze. I walk slowly to the stand and take the oath."Can you please tell us what happened between you and Baxter and why you think he is responsible for your accident?"My eyes interlock with that of Baxter's, his face is void of emotions. I feel pity for him but I don't know what he feels towards me and towards everything. I try to read his expression all to no avail. Is it remorse? Or more hatred?"Baxter abused me physically and sexually", I gulp, unable to express my self. I didn't see myself telling the world what Baxter did to me but here I am."Why?""Because he was believed that I was cheating on him.""Did you cheat on him?""No, I did not. It was just a misunderstanding.""What makes you thi

CHAPTER 58"Adrian”, I mutter with pride.I am kneeling beside Andre with our arms together. He is staring at me as I answer his question. He is asking me the name I was planning to name the baby I lost."I wanted to name him Adrian", I say again."What made you think of naming himthat?" He asksbut I shrug. I don't know how to tell him I got the name from his own name because I love his name and I thought I should name my baby something related to his name."Uhm", he looks thoughtful for a while. "You got It from my name?" He says more like a question."No!" I deny sharply.He chuckles. "Really?'"Yep.""What if it were to be a girl?What would you have named her? Andre?" He laughs at me and I hit him playfully on the arm.He sobers up and we begin to pray for the baby. "Accept our baby, Adrian’s soul, Lord. May his soul rest in peace", Andre says out aloud."Amen", I mutter.
FORBIDDEN Chapter Fifty nine
CHAPTER 59A feeling of deja vu sweeps through me as Andre parks his car. We are at his parent's home. The feeling is different from the last time I am here. First, the last time we were here, it was just for a show even thought that was between Andre and I. Second, the last time I was here, I was humiliated, disliked and treated like a whore but this time, I know I will be treated differently and right, just like I deserved to be treated. I will be treated like Andre's to-be bride. Andre had informed his parents about the proposal over the phone and they were happy. His mother insisted on doing an engagement party to celebrate it but I told them I didn't want it. Like I said to Andre on the day he proposed, I have had enough drama and attention for a lifetime. All I want right now is to have a quiet and small wedding with the love of my life and then we will begin to live as man and wife. Meeting Andre is enough to make me noticeable.

CHAPTER 60I believe every repentant or good person deserves to be happy. We all have our shortcoming and imperfections and that is what makes us human. I have been given a chance to be happy, despite all that has happened, despite my imperfections. I judged Rob and Johnson wrongly without sitting Rob down to hear him out and without studying Johnson well enough to know who he really is before judging him.If I have not been given a chance to be happy again, then I won't be here, walking down the aisle in Jonhson's arm to become the wife of no other person than my very own heart desire. The only man whose voice can wake me up from whatever slumber I fall into. The only man that understands my silence, even when my mom is trying hard to figure out what it means. The only man that is patient and kind and understanding. The only man that can accomodate all my excesses, my moodswings and bad behaviour.I am walking down the aisle right down, my left hand in Johnson's arm

I smile as I look at my husband with his eyes closed still in a deep slumber. My mind went to last night the way I was squirming under him when we were entangled in our blissful moment. As I think about it now I can't help but feel that everything is thrilling.I still can't believe that Andre is my husband. My smile becomes wide “Yes!” I say, slightly covering my mouth so that I won't wake him up. I stretch my hand to brush the stray hair that had fallen to his face. He is so beautiful even in his sleep.I yawn and gently climb out of the bed.I enter the bathroom to ease myself. As am coming out, Andre stretches his hands up and yawns probably to release tensed nerves. He looks at me and smiles.“Good morning beautiful ,” He says to me. My cheeks become red and I hide my face away. I was thinking by now I would get used to us, but from what am seeing, am still very shy around him.&nbs

“Stop with the suspense already Drè just spill it!” My face dampens as I try to manipulate him into telling me the surprise.“Close your eyes,” He says. I open my mouth to say something but he tightens his lips and shakes his head at me.” just close it” he says again. Seeing that he's serious, I close my eyes but not entirely. I peek at him from under my thick dark lashes“You are cheating. If you won't obey, then you are not ready for the surprise” He surmises and comes back to sit on the bed. I raise my hands up “No no no am sorry... Please go ahead” I clamour, his face causing my heart to flutter.He looks at me for some time to make sure I wasn't going to want to open my eyes again. Seeing that am receptive now, he enters our walk-in closet and removes two tickets from his briefcase.As he is coming back, I tighten my eyes and w

“Mmm,” I whimper still swirling at my face.“What is the problem?” he asks mildly, sitting up on the bed to scoot close to me.“Nothing just...just__” I break down again in tears. He holds me to himself and let me cry all I want. After some time, I look at him“I couldn't sleep. I keep thinking about my ex and all he did to me” I sniff. He reaches out to the side table to bring out a napkin which I use to dab at my eye. “ He abused me so much Drè. I don't know how am ever going to forget what that monster did to me. They were horrible, horrible things.” this is not the first time am saying anything about her ex to him. He knew about Baxter but not everything the scumbag did to me. My heartbeat accelerates as I imagine what he will do to the bastard when he gets hold of him__knowing how possessive he is of me.“That day at the

After Dimitri drops us at the airport Andre holds my waist and kisses me. I smile at him“Why did you do that?” I ask him.“Because I wanted to and I can” He answeres smiling back at me.“Who says you can” I decide to tease him.“I did” I laugh at him.“What about my permission” I tease further.“You always want me to kiss you love” He replies to me and I blush. He's not wrong.“That blush on your face shows that I am right” He grins.“Whatever. I’m not going to miss this flight because of you” I say smiling. I carry my box and bag and he does the same. After going through all the necessary procedures we both wait. Our flight was called for takeoff so we both run to catch up. Entering the plane I smile quickly taking the window seat and Andre sits beside me. I've never travelled, o
