“I have been a troublemaker. I am sure you regret meeting me,” I said, a smirk on my face. “Well, I would do the same if I were in your shoes. It makes enough sense that you hate me.”

Julian sighed, “I never knew you knew how to be pathetic.”

“What!” I exclaimed. “I am telling you my inner thoughts but you think it’s pathetic behavior? Well, I guess it is.”

“Listen up…” Julian told me calmly. “Blaming yourself for the misfortunes of my life is a very bad move. You ruined nothing. I’d like to believe that everything that happened between us was the work of fate.”

“Well…” I was short of words. “You mean we are like… meant to be?”

“Not that!” he replied sharply, catching me off guard. “What I mean was… erm…”

Julian was flustered. Well, he was human too. I smiled now as I waited for him to recover. He closed his eyes and I almost begged him to open them. He was driving for goodness sake. He reopened his eyes now and continued talking.

    “It’s really not like that!” Julian exclaimed. “I have no reason to get back with my ex-girlfriend when I have a wife. I might be a bad husband but I don’t believe I’m cheating, at least for now.”“For now!” I exclaimed. “That sounds like you plan to cheat in the future.” “Let’s just talk tomorrow. Like I said earlier, I am tired,” Julian tried to sleep on the bed. I turned to him again and gave him a cold stare.“I’m sure you weren’t tired when you were with Maggie. In fact, you must have been so energized,” I said without holding back. “You went out with her for hours, full of energy. Now you come back and all you want to do is sleep. Does that mean I drain your energy?” Julian took a deep breath. He looked really stressed right now.“I will just sleep in the guest room. Have fun,” Julian walked out of the room. He looked quite angry but I could care less. In this situation, I was the one who was hurt. He had chosen his ex-girlfriend over me, I should be the one throwing a tantrum

    Our gazes lingered and I had that feeling again. You know the feeling that you once felt the way you do in the present. Sounds confusing but makes absolute sense. I took in a deep breath and broke the rift with a warm smile.“Why do you feel nervous?” I asked carefully.“I’m not sure,” Maggie responded. “I think it might be because you’ve changed. You have gotten more mature and… erm… unpredictable.”“Really?” I asked for the umpteenth time. I took another sip of my drink and turned to Maggie.“Let’s face it. You’ve changed…” Maggie told me firmly.“I could say the same to you,” I replied. “I think I never changed. My mindset and belief never changed…” Maggie replied honestly. “You still believe in chasing success rather than love,” I stared at her. Maggie didn’t avert my gaze. She looked lost for words and fortunately, Mike appeared at this crucial moment and took away the tension. Maggie’s attention went to him immediately.“Who am I seeing?” Mike exclaimed before turning to me, “

  • Scandalously Yours   Chapter 29

    Annie entered at the heat of the conversation but that stopped nothing. I continued normally but in the end, I could no longer disregard Annie’s gaze. It was saying much more than words would normally express. It made me feel a little guilty so it helped when Olivia entered the room and took away Annie’s attention from me.“What’s for breakfast?” Annie asked. “The head chef and the nutritionist will brief you on that. Preparations are underway though,” Olivia replied. “I doubt you can change anything even if you want to.”“If I want to, I will. I will see them myself. You’re dismissed,” Annie said calmly. Olivia bowed curtly and left. Silence enveloped and I felt the need to break it before things became awkward.“Isabella will arrive today at noon. I don’t think you need to bother much. Breakfast is no big deal,” I muttered, hoping it would be hopeful. “Yeah,” Annie replied nervously. “I am glad things will finally be returning to normal.” Maggie turned towards me excitedly, “How

    Julian covered both of us with the sheets the moment Maggie entered. I was so taken aback and angry at the same time. Maggie remained in the room and eventually, I got out of the sheets, straightened my clothes and stood up to talk to her. I could see jealousy and anger written on her face. It was obvious that she still wanted Julian. As for him, he remained in bed, covered by the sheets.“This room belongs to newlyweds. Don’t you think it is polite to knock before entering?” I asked her firmly. She just ruined the special moment I was having with Julian, I believe I had the right to shout at her. Maggie remained calm and listened until it was time to reply.“I’m sorry,” she muttered. “I shouldn’t have overstepped my boundaries. I forgot I was just a visitor here and that I had to respect the privacy of people. I am sorry for invading. I am sorry…”Just like this, Maggie began to cry. She was making me feel bad for being angry. This, I guess, was what people called gas-lighting in its

    “If you keep talking…” I muttered. “I will be tempted to cover your pretty, little mouth with mine.”Annie kept eye contact with me and I saw this as a good sign. I wanted her too, maybe even more than she would want me. Sleeping with her on the same bed for several nights had begun to take its toll on me. It made me imagine what it would feel like to sleep with her in that sense.“I know I have asked before…” Annie was quite serious. “However, can I ask again?”She seemed to have something serious in mind so I replied quickly, “Go ahead. Ask me whatever you wish.”“How many women have you been with?” Annie asked dryly. I wasn’t expecting that.“I already told you…” I muttered.“You said just a few!” Annie exclaimed. “However, you seem like a professional in flirting. You do it every time and now, I’ve gotten used to it. I won’t fall for your scheme again. Once was enough.”“But I really mean it this time…” I muttered. She didn’t seem to believe me.“We have a contracted couple and in

    Olivia’s ideas were practical. It was right for her to take charge since she was the professional here. However, I was still not going to allow her to dominate in the presence of all the maids. If I knew anything about power, it was that it could be lost by one wrong move. I had to show everyone who is still in charge right now.I smiled and muttered calmly, “I have to accept that you’re right. I am a professional in my own field, you are a professional in yours.”“I’m glad you accepted that!” Olivia smiled. She must have thought she had won against me.“However…” I began. “I am the owner of this mansion.”“I thought it used to belong to Mr. Julian. Did he give it to you?” Olivia asked simply. I could see two maids chuckling behind her. I now confirmed that Olivia was trying to show off in the presence of the maids.I remained relaxed, “We are a couple and when we said our vows, we pledged to be one body. I am his, he is mine. Whatever belongs to my darling husband is mine as well. Th
