The drive back to the Radford’s mansion was a silent and awkward one, Judith tried to make conversation with Rex since they left the venue of the fashion runway show but he had been brooding since they left.
Deciding to try her luck once in bring up a conversation, she thought of the perfect topic and then brought it up,”Rex, next month is mother-in-law’s birthday, what do you think we should get her since you know her the best..”
Rex acknowledged her with a side glance and replied absent minded voice,”you can pick anything you want and add the bill to my card..”
Feeling relieved that he replied her finally, she smiled sweetly,”you know her picky she is, the previous years when we gave her that expensive jewelry set
Sitting in her balcony, she’s been absent from the media for a week after the fashion show. Offers had been coming for her and people always went to the office to look for her but were always told of her absence.The people who often call to either talk to her or see are the husband and wife, their frequent request to see her were starting to made the secretary and assistant question their motives.Annie had been absent from the company for a week but she knew all about what was going on in the company in her absence, seeing Rex that night drained her, it all her strength and energy to look unaffected by Rex presence after seeing him after 6 years. But seeing him with Judith was the worst pain than what he did to her years ago.She saw Roxie’s ca
Rex had been having a fight with his sanity since he came face to face with Annie Yin.He hasn’t said a word nor left his room for days aside going to work and then coming home and going straight to his room.He had made appointments several to meet Annie Yin but she keeps putting him off.Sitting in his office, he was lost in his thoughts once again. He was staring blankly at the balcony as he admired the landscape view from his office.“Knock knock…”“Knock knock knock….’Because he was so lost in his thoughts, he didn’t hear the knocking till a series of kn
“Rex it not like that but….but….but….it’s like…mmm….mmm…”“Enough Judith, if you feel this marriage is getting too much for you then let’s divorce!”Judith’s mouth was wide open but no word can be heard from her lips, she keeps opening as closing her mouth in shock. She never knew a day like this will ever come, a day that Rex will actually ask for a divorce directlyAfter a while, she found herself looking at Rex as if truly seeing him for the first time, “Rex, why are you asking me for a divorce suddenly. Are you angry at me?, forgive me for misbehaving, I will be very miserable without you. Who will want me again?…”
38.“Well, I saw a picture of Annie Yin with them..”Martha said very fast as if she won’t be able to say it again if she delays further.“Oh that h*e, was it a party organized by their company?, how was she able to get access to such a prestigious family?..”“Mmm Judith…it was a family picture of the Yin family..”“Yin family?…as in the Yin family you and both know about or there’s a less privileged one around that I don’t know about…”, she questioned Martha with a genuine confused look.Looking at Judith’s confused expression, Martha knew immediately that she was confused,‘has she always been this clueless and stupid?…she has not only confused herself but had almost succeeded in making me question my own facts and sanity….I almost doubted how genuine the picture was…or I’ve become as stupid as she is by associating too much with her…I have to distance myself asp before they become no hope to save me as she is hopeless..’“Martha!!!”“Martha!!, can you come out of your dazed look alre
There was a huge fuss at the international airport in the early working hours of Monday, travelers paused and stared, it was truly an enchanting sight. Cameras where flashing, people screaming in joy and other people in awe,"isn't that Ann Yin? Is she married? are those her children? All these years and she's finally back to her birth country!”The crowd gather around with excitement and in awe at the star’s appearance."Omg she is finally back, I heard the news of her return but didn't believe it earlier but it turns out to be the truth! Hahahaha…….”, an excited teenager said to her friends in pure bliss. She was beyond happy and it felt her a dream come true to her.The multi billion award winning actress, Ann Yin has returned to her birth country after many years staying overseas and making a name for herself. "It was said that she left the country after a heart breaking betrayal, hustling in the street of Las Vegas until she was discovered by a well known movie director who took h
Getting to extrance of the airport, the eerie feeling of déjà vu got Ann and it hit her had like a brick. Standing still in front of the airport, she remembered how she passed through those same extrance of the airport feeling so lost, dejected and a no body to relay on. She went through all that but returned proud, fulfilled, happy, wealthy, a mother entitled and that meant everything to her. She could see the reflection of her former self in the windows as if a vision passing by in a flash, she could still remember distinctly, the betrayal she felt, her anger, her pain and her tears but that also made her swear revenge on that man and that woman. That swore revenge in the past was the main reason she returned to the country aside feeling homesick all this while and wanting to show her babies their home country. She clearly remembered her disarrayed appearance when she finally made it to the airport that day.Lost in her thought and anguish, her hands were unconsciously clenched into
All the attention he was getting from even her own best friend was getting Ann more and more curious about the new comer. The curious she gets, the angrier she became as time passes. The clock was ticking and her best friend won’t shut up about him, it always,’Oh my gosh! Rex is so handsome, did you see the way he smiled at me? Oh that pants dropping smile, Rex is staring our way’. Ann scoffed when she remembered her lovesick expression.“Enough already Judith! this craziness have got to stop and it has to stop now! I need my mental health intact and all this craziness with your constant oh Rex is! or oh Rex that! is making me lose my last brain cells and I don’t want to be brain dead before enjoying what's left of my poor life! so please shut up about it for a fu*cking minute!!”,Ann outburst angrily. Her nostrils were already flaring.Ann sighed in relieve when she didn’t hear anything from her friend for a while but then, she noticed it was too silent, too quiet for their surrounding
Just when they reached the right corner at the far end of the washroom, where they will appear well hidden from the wondering eyes of many, Ann leaned on the wall and sighed in relieve. Her heart was palpitating hard and her hands sweating profusely, what she just went through was a bit traumatic for her. She jumped up immediately and her eyes wide open, as if remembering something very important, she turned sharply to Judith and asked,” who-who is he?, who is this Rex Radford?”.Judith stood there frozen for a while, too surprise to alter a word. After a while and a lot of blinking she turned her attention to the expectant Ann and spoke slowly to her as if talking to a child, “ what? You-you mean to tell me that you had no idea who Rex Radford was and you choose to disgraced him like that? oh my gosh! Oh! Oh my gosh! Of-of cos you don’t know him, why did I follow you blindly? Oh! Oh! I should have warned you but when I saw him smiling and approaching us like in the movies, I was mesme
