Zena POV’s A month later…I was sitting in my room, lost in thought, even since what happened between i and Justin, we never saw eye to eye. We didn’t speak to each other even though he made sure I lacked nothing.Thankfully I was always on call with my mum who helped me get over the boredom all already. I was literally more like a prisoner locked in her own room.I stood up when I heard a knock on my door. "Zena are you in there?" Someone called out, and I knew who it was, it’s Kate, she’s actually a maid.“I need your help with something." She said and I wondered what she wanted from me because I have nothing. Reluctantly, i waked to the door and I opened it. Kate was standing there, looking flustered."Mrs Daniella and the Boss fiance are asking for more drinks," She said and I wondered what’s that supposed to do with me, not until she said something else.“Justin’s mum is something else,” I mumbled.“Can you help me bring them down?" She asked and I sighed, wanting to say no ,bu
Zena POV’sLater in the evening…After the hectic day with Justin’s mum and his fiance, she made do most of the work for his fiancé until she left. I decided to rest but I couldn’t. I’ve been having a serious stomach. I could feel the pain slowly building in my stomach, like a storm gathering on the horizon.The dull ache gradually turned into a sharp, burning sensation, making it hard to even breathe. I doubled over, clutching my abdomen, hoping the pain would go away. But it just kept getting worse. I began to sweat, my heart racing. I didn't know what was wrong, but I knew I needed help."Help!" I called out, my voice barely a whisper. I was so weak from the pain that I could barely speak. My eyes began to fill with tears, and I wondered if I was going to die. "Someone, please help me!" I begged, feeling desperate and afraid. I heard footsteps approaching, and I hoped that someone would come to my aid. But I couldn't help but wonder if it would be too late.The door opened and Mr
Zena POV's The silence in the car was thick and heavy, and it hung over me and Justin like a dark cloud. It was clear that something was wrong, but neither of them knew how to break the silence. As the car wound its way through the city streets, they both sat in their own thoughts, unable to find the words to express what they were feeling. Finally, I broke the silence. "Justin, can we talk?" I asked quietly.“Yeah, go on,” He replied."I know what Dr. Leonard said about my health but it isn't your responsibility," I began, my voice shaking a bit because I didn't want him to get angry. "But I don't want you to feel like you have to worry about me all the time. Like you said all this is just for your unborn child, so let's keep it that way, without you stressing about my health." I looked over at Justin, hoping that he would understand.“I know that you care about me, and I appreciate that. But I don't want you to feel burdened by my health issues." I added and he sighed.“You don'
Zena POV's At Night…I was in my room lust deeply in thoughts, my phone suddenly bleeped, signaling a text message. I pulled it out and saw that it was from Justin. I hesitated before opening it, knowing that it would probably just add to my frustration. Finally, I opened the message, my heart beating a little faster. The message read, "Can you please come over to my room? I know you're stressed out. I just want to talk,”My nerve kind of calmed down when he said he just wanted to talk, for a moment I thought it was about the sex stuff.I sighed as i looked down at the text message from Justin. It was clear that he wasn't going to let this go until we talked. And I knew that avoiding him would only make things worse.Reluctantly, I typed back, "Okay, I'll be right over." Then I slipped my phone back into my pocket and made my way to Justin's room. As she walked down to his room, I felt a knot in my stomach. I just wanted this whole thing to be over with.My steps were slow and heav
Zena POV's I woke up in fright, my heart pounding in my chest, I could feel the cold wetness of water on my face and neck, and I immediately sat up, disoriented and confused. I could hear someone moving around in my room, but I couldn't make out who it was. All I could see was a shadowy figure moving in the darkness. “Who's there?" I called out, my voice shaky and uncertain. The figure didn't respond, and myfear grew. Was I in danger? What was happening?Suddenly the lights flickered on, my eyes widened in surprise. Standing in front of me was Mrs. Daniella, Justin’s mum. She was holding a glass of water in one hand, and a damp cloth in the other. "Oh, my dear!" Mrs. Daniella exclaimed, rushing to my side."I'm so sorry for scaring you. I just wanted to make sure you were okay. You were so hot and feverish, I thought you might need some water." My fear quickly turned to relief, and I felt myself relax a bit. But I wondered why she had been so kind to me.“Thanks for helping me ou
Justin POV’sI paced back and forth in my office, my mind racing. I knew I was forgetting something, but I couldn't remember what it was. I looked around the room, searching for a clue. And then it hit me. I had forgotten my laptop charger at home. I quickly gathered up my things and rushed out of the office, heading for my car. I knew I had to get home and get my charger before it was too late, since I have other important matters to attend to.Few minutes later I rushed through the front door, my heart pounding in my chest. I could hear voices coming from the living room, and I immediately recognized one of them as Alicia’s. As I got closer, I heard her say something that made me furrow my brows.“You’re fired!!" She exclaimed. I rushed into the living room, my eyes wide opened, wondering what’s going on."What's going on?" I asked, my voice tensed.Alicia turned to look at me, her expression smug. "This maid is no no longer needed here," She said, her tone cold, and I wondered
Zena POV’sImmediately Alicia left, Mrs Daniella’s face was red with rage, and her eyes were filled with hate. "You ruined everything!" She hissed, advancing towards me. "It's all your fault, you stupid girl!" She yelled.I took a step back, fear coursing through my veins. "I didn't mean to," I stammered, my voice shaking. "I never meant to hurt anyone. Please, Mrs. Daniella, don't do anything rash." I pleaded she was beyond reason. She was consumed by anger, and nothing could stop her.Before Justin could intervene, he was too late, Mrs. Daniellla hand connected with my face, the slap echoing through the room. I stumbled back, my cheek stinging. Justin ran to me, I could feel his heart pounding. “Are you okay?" He asked, his voice filled with concern. I nodded, my hand pressed to my cheek. "I'm fine," I said, though my voice was trembling. "But I'm scared. Please, Justin, do something." I didn’t know when it came out as a whisper.Mrs Daniella advanced towards me again when Justi
Justin POV’sI was in the kitchen, making myself a cup of coffee and getting ready for work, I don’t like the coffee the maids usually makes for me, so I had to do it myself.I sighed as I drank the cup of coffe when Zena walked in. I could see that she was upset, and I immediately felt concerned. “Zena, what's wrong?" I asked, my voice full of concern. She hesitated for a moment, and then she started to cry. "I-I don't know what to do," she said, her voice breaking. "I'm so lost and confused."“You’re going to work now Justin, I’m scared that when you leave your mum would hurt me,” She said with her head face down.Her words sent a chill down my spine. I knew that she had been having a difficult time with my mother, but I had no idea that she was so scared. "Zena, I promise you, I won't let anything happen to you," I said, my voice calm and reassuring. "I'll talk to my mother, and I'll make sure she knows that she can't mistreat you. I won't let you be hurt." Zena looked at me, her
