Chapter Twenty Nine

I am happy that the case is closed now. Lawson learnt his lesson in a big way. Aaron also received compensation from Lawson. Of course, that would never be a problem for a billionaire. Everybody is good.

What will be my faith now that the case is closed, I am still staying with Roselyn and Lawson believed Roselyn was behind the court case. 

I thought I would be getting a divorce but now it's complicated.

I dressed up every morning to go to my workplace, and everything went smoothly; there were no calls from Lawson, Dad, or Mom. No unusual visit and I can say I am enjoying my freedom.

It was a Friday night. I freshened up after the close of work, determined to go to the club and have fun as it's the weekend.

I put on a very skimpy dress with high-heeled shoes, I didn't pack my hair, just pulled it to the back

 I put on my cross bag and perfume on my body. I looked at the mirror and smiled at the reflection in the mirror.

I left home a few minutes pass10pm, took a cab to the nightclub. We are gonna rock it tonight.

I went to look for Roselyn in her office but didn't find her there, then I saw her in the bar attending to a staff member.

“Hi Rosie”. She couldn't believe her eyes.

“ Rachel, what are you doing here at this time of the night? And your dress? I have not seen you dress this way before, what changed?” She wanted to know if something had happened.

“ Babe relax nothing happened, I just want to feel included, I want to enjoy myself and have fun. Let me enjoy this freedom.” I left her and joined the people inside.

I found a single chair to sit on, so I gently called a waiter.

“Please give me Hennessy”. He was back within a short period 

I was enjoying the loud music while having my drink. The hall was full of boys and girls, men and their girlfriends hovering all around them.

There are some guys in the VIP section, two guys and some girls around them with lots of drinks on their table.

Flashing lights everywhere, loud music, and people dancing.

I also danced to the music gently as I sipped my drinks, then a guy came to join me at my table.

“Hello, are you alone? Can I join you?” A nice-smelling guy approached

“ As you can see, I am sitting alone enjoying myself.

“ My name is Elvis, can we be friends” he asked 

“ I am not here to make friends, and besides I have more than enough friends already thanks” I continued dancing.

He tried to move closer, maybe to dance with me or try to do something else.

He leaned on me trying to kiss me, then I gave him a hot slap.

“ You think I am drunk and want to take advantage of me right? You must be stupid” I created a scene

Although, I feel a little tipsy but not to the extent of not knowing what I was doing.

The guy (Elvis) wanted to return the slap but some guys stopped him.

The manager(Roselyn) interferes, pleading with the guy to move to another table.

“ Rachel, what is it with you? What would you have done if the guy was violent? You shouldn't have taken so much alcohol. You need to go home now”. She scolded me

“Am I a baby that you needed to babysit? I know what I want and you can't deprive me of that, and besides it's money I want to spend, I am also a customer here, don't treat me anyhow”. 

“ Rachel it's obvious you are drunk, but if you say otherwise it's fine, but stop being a nuisance here”. She said and went back to what she was doing.

I ignored Roselyn and continued dancing for some more minutes. The people's attention was on me,they kept laughing but didn't know what made them laugh. I got tired and decided to go home but I noticed I was tipsy and staggering as I walked to get a cab.

“ Get into the car and stop disgracing yourself, I can't let people know I am your husband with the rubbish you displayed there” I heard a familiar voice from inside the car as the car door opened.

I couldn't see the person properly,he dragged me in with one hand and I landed on his body.

“ Who are you?” I looked closely.

“ Lawson? How dare you talk to me in that manner, I only came to enjoy myself, and for your information, I didn't do any rubbish, I just entertained a group of people there".

“ Gerrick, start the car and take us home” he instructed the driver.

I was asleep before we got home, and Lawson woke me up when we got home. I still felt a little tipsy, so he had to carry me upstairs when I couldn't work well.

“ Why do you have to drink this much Rachel? This is too much”. He carried me upstairs and laid me on the bed. I didn't know what happened next, so I fell asleep.

My head kept banging from the previous day's alcohol when I woke up.

“ Good morning.” That was Lawson greeting me.

“Why will you bring me here of all places? You should have taken me to my friend's place or better still my parents' house” When I discovered I was in Lawson's house I couldn't take it. I shouldn't be brought home just like that as someone who doesn't have a family.

“ You expect me to leave you in the state you were in yesterday? And it's not possible to take you to your parents because we are still married.” 

“Are we married? You said you wanted a divorce so I have been waiting for your lawyer to bring the papers for me to sign.”

“ Divorce? That was just a word of the mouth, we are not divorcing”. He said bluntly 

“How do you toy with people's emotions…….”. he moved closer and kissed me before I could finish my sentence.

I couldn't resist him, I rested my hands on his well-shaped b

body and kissed him back. We ended had a passionate sex and forgot everything that happened.
