Mia’s POV“Ms. Mia?” My clerk walked into my office, she bumped into me crying“I'm sorry" She said as she tried to go back out, I quickly wiped my face“Yes?” I replied“You want me to get you anything for dinner?” She asked me“It's getting really late” She added“I'm not hungry” I said to her with my face bent to the ground“Okay” She said but stood there for a while“You can go” I said to her dismissing her“Um, I have reports that are due” She replied explaining why she can't go home yet“Okay” I replied“Are you sure you are okay?” She asked again“I'm fine” I replied her“Okay, Mrs. Jones has called several times” She said to me“Did she leave a message?” I asked“Yeah, she keeps asking when the filing will take place for her divorce from Mr. Liam Jones” She explained“And what did you tell her?” I asked“That you were on it” She replied confidently“Okay, thank you” I said to her“I didn't see it on the manifest to get filed” She said, I haven’t done anything on it and now she
Mia’s POVI was sitting helplessly, crying on the floor by the kitchen table when I heard a cloud knock on my front door and I wasn’t going to take it, I just want to be alone.“Mia?” Ana shouted and I raised my head in surprise, how did she know I was here, I said to myself but I kept silent because I didn’t want any company“Mia...” she said while knocking continuously then I wiped my face roughly and opened the door for her“What's wrong?” She asked me as she rushed inside and looking worried, she quickly closed the door and held my hands“What's going on?” She asked again but there was no comment from me“Mia, just come on” She said then she pulled me to sit down with her“Tell me what's going on, please” She requested“What's going on?” She asked me again“Hey, Mia what's wrong, honey” Ana placed her palm on my cheek and said to me“Can you get me some water, please?” I said to Ana and she gave me a shocking look“What the hell is water going to do?” She asked me in an angry tone
“Looks like I walked into something" He added while rubbing his palm together"Mm-hmm, Yeah. What are you doing here, hmm?" Ana stood up and asked him in an angry tone"Whoa, calm down, i just came to see the woman I love" Liam replied and I just bent my head down covered with my palm“Uh, is this a bad time?" Liam asked confused by the mood in the room"Your damn right, it is" Ana replied"What? Mia, what's going on?" Liam directed his question to me, expecting me to say something"Get the hell out of here" Ana yelled at him"Mia?" Liam called while approaching to hold me then Ana pushed him roughly and tore out some buttons from his dress“Bitch, you just broke my button, I have to pay for that" He yelled"Then i suggest you font come any closer" Ana warned"This is about Mia?" He asked Ana"Mia, what's going on?" Liam asked me again"Hey, don't you dare come any closer to her cos am ready to fight you off" Ana said to him "can I mess him up?" Ana asked me"Please do" I replied and
After he closed the door behind him, Ana turned to me "Explain this shit" she said immediately in an amazed tone “Come on, tell me what's going on" She said“What?" I asked pretending I didn't know what she was talking about“How did you do that?" She asked me again “You just like pack all your shit in and bring them in like a horse" She said "I'm a lawyer, remember?" I replied"Girl, that was brilliant" Ana said happy that I was playing Liam back"It was, wasn't it?" I asked taking the credit"I wish I had what you have" She said to me impressed“Really?" I asked looking at her "Because am tired and am sick of this shit" I said to her“I'm sick of having to be strong because a man wants me to be weak. I'm sick of playing these games with men, I am sick of being a fool for love, am looking at this fucker tell me lies, and am taking it because I want it to be true" I continued angry"I got you" She said and pulled me closer into a hug“Why can't they just tell the truth?" I whispered
I was still unable to speak because of the shock I was experiencing. After sometime, I managed to put myself together and say something."Well, miss Jones..." I began to her recovering a little from the shock"Sit down, bitch!" She yelled, ordering me to sit down"I am not going to allow you to come to my office and disrespect me" I replied her"I said sit down" She yelled"Please, she didn't want to come, but I convinced her" The Private investigator said to me "Please" She added"And why would I sit down? So you can destroy me?" I asked"Miss Mia" The P.I called"You know what, do whatever you are gonna do or plan to do okay? I don't have to be a part of this" I said to both of them and picked up my things to leave to conference room"Sit, please, please" The P.I pleaded with me"You...are the lowest kind of whore there is, you knew he was married, and you let me come in here, pour my heart out to you, and you knew. I'm going to have you disbarred and fired, and your name? that'll b
I got home after a while, I rested a little bit then took a shower while preparing to call Liam, I heard a knock on my door"Who is it?" I asked while listening on the door“It's Benny" She replied, Benny the P.I I said to myself before I went over to open the door"What are you doing here?" I asked her“Can I come in?" She requested"I don't want you in my house" I replied her while still standing in her way and blocking the entrance to my apartment“Please, I...am just trying to help" She said to me“Why?" I asked her suspicious“Because I don't think this is your fault, it's his and that son of a bitch should pay, please, just let me come in let us figure this out" She explained and I thought about it or a second "Come on in" I said to her and moved out of the way for her to come in“This place is really nice" She commented while looking around"Thank you' I said to her "I'll be selling it soon" I added"Oh, am sorry about that" She said"What's she saying?" I asked her so that sh
After they left my apartment. I picked up my phone and dialed Ana’s number “Hey girl, how are you doing?” she said once just picked up but I didn’t respond “Hey, Mia, are you there? What happened? Did you meet up with him? What did he say?” she asked worried“i…don’t…” was all I could muster up before I went silent again“Girl, you have to talk to me okay”“Can you come over?” I asked her“Of course I will come over” she replied and I was grateful for her answer “then we talk, right?” she added“Then, we talk” I repeated“Alright, I will head over the minute I finish up from here” she said “Yeah, pack a bag” I said which was a way of letting her know she will be spending the night over“Okay, then I have to go home before coming out okay?” she said “Okay” I replied“Alright, see you soon, bye” she said“Bye” I replied before ending the callI went over to the bathroom and took a cold shower, then climbed up my bed and wrapped myself in and sobbed, I have been holding in the tears
After he left I laid down and cried some more then slept off from there. After what seems like an hour, my phone rang and woke me, I picked it up to know who was calling and it was the private investigator, I signed and dropped my phone, after like two minutes it rang again, I picked it up without looking a the caller ID this time “Leave me the fuck alone!” I screamed“Geez Mia, it’s me, Ana your best friend” Ana said from the other side of the call“Oh sorry, I thought you were someone else” I apologized“Okay but what is wrong, I just called to check up on you” she said“He came here and got me a riled up” I explained“Who? Liam?” she asked“Yea coming here to tell me to choose him over my life and career and…and accusing me of not loving him because I would tell him to stay” I explained“Oh no, he crossed the line this time, am coming over so we can talk okay?” she said“Wait for me okay? I won’t be long” she added“Alright, am waiting” I said before ending the callI went to the
