" What is it, Mr Thompson? " Me Brandon asked jokingly but Andrew was in no mood for jokes. His carelessness and selfish attitude has all pushed Astrid to the edge now.Astrid is nowhere to be found due to the gossip spreading around. And as for Mr Brandon? He doesn't care about it." Why are you doing this? " Andrew asked as he stared at Mr Brandon.Mr Brandon chuckled. " Everything will pass, you just have to calm down. "" You've seen that this fake news going on has affected the stocks of the Thompson's construction. It's affecting me also. "" Well you're a family, so you just need to take the blow together. It'll be fine in a couple of weeks and I trust you. You're an excellent business man you'd excel through. " " I was quiet thinking that things won't get out of hand but now you've left me with no choice. Astrid is missing due to this news and I'm sure your family doesn't know about your gambling problem, Mrs Alexa doesn't know that you've lost her father's company, her fath
She wanted to feel those chest, to touch them, to run her fingers on his abs, her eyes followed those abs and met his v-line. She couldn't imagine that Astrid had all these to herself." Would you go and get dressed? " Mrs Thompson yelled and Andrew walked away. " Why does Astrid always have the best things to herself. Andrew was mine from the start and he'll be mine till I die. So his obsession over Astrid must come to an end. " She thought as she stared at the tv screen. " I think it's time we tell break the news to him. Astrid is already out of here. She won't be a nuisance anymore. Okay. " Mrs Thompson said as she patted Mira's thigh simultaneously." Okay. " Mira nodded with a smile. Moments later Andrew walked in completely dressed, he didn't bother asking them about her whereabouts because what would they know. They don't like her, so they'd chase her away and why would they tell him her exact location?" Astrid signed the divorce agreement. She divorced you. " Mrs Thompson s
" Hey. " She greeted trying to make her presence known. Andrew smiled as their eyes met " what are you doing here? "" Well, I came to tell you something important but it seems like you're busy. " She said as she sat on his thighs.Andrew let out a sigh and decided to tell her what's going on " well, I'm quite busy. I'm having a press conference in an hour. It's about the news circulating online. The media wants us to divorce. They're saying bad things online and this news is affecting our sales. "Astrid felt really bad because her problems are causing problems for Andrew. She turned to face him, she cupped his face in her hands and looked at him in the eye. " I'm sorry about this, I didn't really know that I'll affect you. I'm sorry. "Andrew held her hands " it's okay. With time everything will die down. Okay? " Astrid nodded and Andrew placed a light kiss on her lips. Astrid couldn't say anything because she didn't think that this was the right moment, her being with Andrew is rui
Astrid turned and walked away. "Astrid!!" Mrs. Thompson called out, but Astrid didn't respond.Astrid was smitten by the joy of being pregnant and she decided to go to a hospital to confirm her pregnancy and then break the news to Andrew.Doubt crept into her mind. This isn't the kind of marriage she wants; every time there's a problem, Andrew's mother is always ready with divorce papers, wanting her to leave Andrew.There is Mira, who is on the side waiting. Immediately she leaves, Mira will take Andrew. No one knows what Mira is planning to do, especially now that she has succeeded in living with them.There are people outside willing to mock her if things don't work out with Andrew, including her father.She sighed as the thought sank in. Was having this baby good news to both of them or only to her?She only got to marry Andrew because she was pregnant, and now it seems like the universe is just bringing a baby to her anytime her marriage is about to fall because the universe does
Astrid stood in front of Mrs. Thompson and greeted, "Welcome home." Astrid said with cold eyes.Mrs. Thompson stood up and slapped Astrid. "How dare you! You don't deserve any of this. You were attached to trash from the beginning, and that's why it is following you till date. And you're trying to drag my family's name down the mud with you. It won't happen," Mrs. Thompson declared angrily."Calm down, be careful, calm down, be careful," Mira said trying to calm her down."Anytime I see you, I see the pain you go through each day seeing your sister with Andrew. I don't know how you feel, but it's heartbreaking. Your sister here is a thief," Mrs. Thompson said, and she slapped Astrid again."Please calm down," Mira said with fake tears in her eyes as she helped Mrs. Thompson to sit down."Astrid deserves a good beating for disgracing this family. "" Please don't," Mira said. Astrid's eyes were heavy with tears, her cheeks had turned red due to the slaps. She didn't want to disrespect
Andrew got back and unlocked the door, his movements quiet and gentle. He saw Astrid cuddled up and crying, her body shaking with sobs.He lay beside her, his presence calm and comforting. The two of them stayed there for a while, enjoying each other's company.But Astrid's peaceful morning was interrupted by John's knock on the door. Andrew got up to answer it, his expression changing from calm to concerned."What's is it?" Andrew asked, his voice low and even.John's expression was serious. "There is an issue," he said, handing Andrew a tablet.Andrew took the tablet, his eyes scanning the screen. Astrid got up, her curiosity piqued. She walked over to Andrew, her eyes fixed on the tablet.The video on the screen showed Astrid and Mrs Alexis in the parking lot. But it was edited, starting from the point where Astrid yelled at Mrs Alexis.The audio was mute, so it was impossible to determine what was being said. But the video showed Mrs Alexis whimpering and looking scared as Astrid
