“Kenneth said he doesn’t talk to Amanda again,”Like seriously?When did he start doing that? Could it be as soon as I left the house, or he lied to Raymond?“He said they only bumped into each other at the restaurant that day and…”Wait, what!That’s a fat lie. They went on a date.If he bumped into her at the restaurant like he said, why then did he bring her back to the house?“He took her to the house to spend the night there, Ray, Kenneth lied to you.”He shook his head.“This is serious. I don’t even know what to believe anymore.”He sighed deeply.For a few minutes, he was silent.I hope he is thinking of what to do. “Give me some time to observe Kenneth again, and I’ll know what to do after that.”I trust him. “That’s fine, and thank you so much, Ray. But I won’t return to the house now, I’d rather stay in my house for now.”“It’s okay. Since you find peace in your house, stay there for now.”A few minutes later, Blair returned. “I saw Alisa at Grandpa George’s apartment
EMILY’S POVSurprisingly, Kenneth would lie to Raymond about his affairs with Amanda. If Raymond hadn’t known what had been happening in my marriage, he would have thought it was I who was lying to him. Kenneth has changed and his lies make me hate him the most. Well, if it’s Amanda he loves, then he can go to her, or better still, marry her. For, I think I am done with this marriage. Raymond wants me to come to the mansion so we can talk. I know it’s about Kenneth, but let’s go find out whatever it could be. “When Alisa is done, bring her to my room.”Sighs.My baby girl is so thin. Looking at her all the time forces me into tears. Kenneth isn’t even supportive, All he knows is to hang around with his side chick.He hasn’t even once sat down with me to discuss Alisa's disorder, and how we can tackle the issue.Suddenly, Alisa started gagging before I stepped on the stairs. Turning back, she had thrown up all the fries she had eaten. “What is wrong? Did she choke?”The nan
RAYMOND’S POVOne thing Emily doesn’t understand is the fact that Amanda might have charmed Kenneth. I mean, he loves her so much and I can testify to that. A lot of ladies these days do that to any man they fall in love with, especially those men with wives and kids at home. I’ve once been in that shoe so, it isn’t something new. When Cassie charmed me, Blair was the only person I hated in this world even though she was the one I loved. Everything changed in a second, and that is what is happening between Kenneth and Emily. But she won’t believe me when I say that,Emily doesn’t believe in anything regarding this. She thinks that if a man suddenly turns his back on his wife, he is doing that because he never loved her. “Kenneth has been charmed by Amanda.”Emily scoffed. She stood up from the chair and shook her head. “Forget about that, Ray, there is no such thing as that. Kenneth never loved me, and he was only waiting for an opportunity to turn his back on me.”Well, I a
“Where is Alisa?”I asked the Nanny who is coming out of the nursery. “Alisa is sleeping. What is the problem, ma’am, Why are you crying?”She asked worriedly. “Kenneth brought her into my room.”Sniffle.“You know what? I am done with this marriage, Go get Alisa ready, we are leaving this house.”“But ma’am, please do not leave the house because of a side chick. This is what she wants, If you leave now, Amanda will be happy and will move in.”That is true, but not today. I can’t stay in this house and watch Kenneth choose another woman over me. “Let’s just go.”I entered the next room where I'd parked all my things two weeks ago, packed some necessary supplies, and left. While going down the stairs with Alisa sleeping on my shoulders, we bumped into Kenneth. When he saw the bags in Nanny's hands, he was so confused and tried to stop us. “I’ve made up my mind, Kenneth, I don’t want to stay with you anymore!”“I’m not stopping you from leaving, but you can’t go with my daughter.
EMILY’S POVI love how Blair and Raymond’s wedding turned out today,It is a grand one, and the love in their eyes shows how much they cherish and care for each other. How I wish my husband loved me this way too, Sighs.Well, our wedding was the talk of the town four years ago, but everything changed when our daughter turned three years old a few months ago. That’s the kind of heartbreak I never want to talk about. “Mrs. Kenneth, your presence is needed right now, Alisa is at the hospital.”What!Alisa?But she was fine before I left for the wedding. “What happened to her?”I picked up my bag from the table. “I think she’s reacting to a certain food.”Oh my God!Not again.Who could have given her something she doesn’t like?“Where is Kenneth?”I asked the nanny, while looking around the hall to see if I could find Raymond. My daughter needs me, so I’ll have to leave before the wedding ends. “Please come over.”She ended the call. Didn't she inform Kenneth of Alisa’s conditio
Two days after Cassie’s burial, Raymond received an unexpected visit in his office. It was Cassie’s dad, the man she said was the hypnotizer.“Everything that befell Cassie was all because of me.”He broke down in tears. “I was the one feeding her all lies about her mum after she left us.”“I told Cassie that her mum never loved her and abandoned her to go marry another man.”“I told her it was the man, Blair’s dad, who separated our marriage.”“Cassie believed me, and that was when I found a way to make her hate her sister. It was all my fault, and I regret my action.”Raymond was so surprised that a dad could turn his child’s heart into an evil one. He didn’t only stop at feeding her lies, he also went ahead to control her mind by charming her. Cassie’s hatred towards Blair wasn't intentional, her dad was controlling her. “Cassie didn't forgive me before she died and I know she will never do even in our next life. I ruined her life which I should have taken good care of, now sh
