The Wife They Tried To Bury Too late to cry
Nova's point of view The way my heart was hammering , I knew I was close to collapsing. Lisa still had me trapped, and every breath scraped through my chest. I forced out a laugh, though it came out shaky. “You're a fool.”Before I could say anything else, my phone began ringing. The sharp sound cut through the room and Lisa's head snapped toward it. I knew that was the only chance the universe would give me, so I shoved against her with everything I had and stumbled away, putting the desk between us. My fingers flew to my hair, and I pulled out the pin holding it together, gripping it tightly. “Don't come any closer.”Lisa stared at the pin, then laughed. “You think I'm afraid of you?” She took another step. “I came prepared, Nova. Today, only one of us is leaving this room alive.”My stomach twisted, I backed away,.my eyes scanning the room for an escape.,. but none of them made sense. My hands instinctively covered my stomach.My baby, five years of hoping, waiting and wishing. I
The Wife They Tried To Bury The She-devil is here!
Nova's point of view I waited until I was certain Reed had gone before slowly raising my head. My heart was fluttering like it had suddenly forgotten its job. It bubbled inside my chest in a warm and ridiculous way, I cupped my cheeks, giggling under my breath like a girl who had just received her first love letter.“Nova, get yourself together.” I looked around at everything Reed had bought and my eyes sparkled. He had even placed little notes inside the bags. In one of the notes, a tiny heart was drawn at the bottom, then another had a ridiculous little doodle beside the words, ‘Eat properly.’I burst out laughing. “Does this man have no work?” Who had the time to sit around writing notes for every single bag?My smile grew dangerously with each note I read. My hands rubbed together excitedly as I stared at the food, even my baby seemed ready to celebrate because suddenly I was starving. “Okay, baby. We eat first.”Love was such a foolish, beautiful thing. Tell me, who wouldn't wa
The Wife They Tried To Bury A new work space
Nova's point of view I just couldn't tear my eyes away from Reed…my lips parted but even my brain betrayed me. Then a voice came between us. What's the fuss about?"My stomach dropped when I saw Damon walking toward us, his eyes moving from one face to another. At that exact moment, Sarah and Jason came out from wherever they probably have been earsdropping from. With excitement I'm their voices, they hurried to Damon. Jason threw an arm around his shoulder; "Perfect timing."Damon shoved him away. "What?" He looked at me, then his expression changed.."What's happening?"Before anyone could answer, Sarah started explaining. Damon's face hardened. "That's ridiculous." He looked at me. "You can't just wake up and agree to something like this."I frowned. "What?""You don't have to accept this nonsense, Nova." His voice lowered. "You're not his puppet."Jason stepped forward before I could even think of a response. "Relax, Damon. Reed isn't doing anything wrong. The CEO approved it."D
The Wife They Tried To Bury A new side of him
Nova's point of view NOVA! My heart nearly jumped out of my chest when I heard Reed yelling my name. I froze over my desk, fingers tightening around the pen I had been pretending to use for the past ten minutes.Fuck! I had deliberately arrived at the office before sunrise for two reasons. First, I had barely slept, every time I closed my eyes, my mind dragged me back through every question I still couldn't answer. Second, I wanted to avoid Reed…completely, preferably until the end of time. So why the hell was the CEO in the office this early? Didn't rich people sleep until noon? Wasn't that one of the benefits of being ridiculously wealthy?The office door swung open and Reed stepped inside. I swallowed…. God, he looked terrible. His hair was a mess, his shirt was slightly wrinkled, and there were dark shadows beneath his eyes. He leaned against the doorframe for a moment, staring at me with an expression that made me reconsider every decision I had ever made, then his jaw tightened
The Wife They Tried To Bury What exactly is the real truth?
Nova's point of view "Absolutely not." Sarah screamed, almost dropping her gift box."Why?" I asked, confused."Because the moment I step outside wearing something worth that much, somebody will assume I'm secretly rich…and kidnap me.""Exactly.” Ella nodded. "She's right.”I wanted to laugh…seriously, who would see Sarah and try to kidnap her, does the person have a death wish? My eyes fixed on Sarah’s and Ella's nervous faces and felt guilty. I would have dropped it, I would have waved it off and said I understand, but became getting on Reed's nerves suddenly felt like my new life’s mission…I couldn't."Please." I looked at the gifts scattered across the table, then at my friends. "Just wear yours tomorrow. I promise I'll wear mine too….I just want us to take a group picture…that's all.”Sarah narrowed her eyes at me. "You're really not going to let this go, are you?"I shook my head. "Not a chance."She sighed dramatically. "Fine..no wahala, as the Nigerians would say….. We'll we
The Wife They Tried To Bury Call me heartless. ...I fucking don't give a shit!
Nova's point of view Was I really going to leave before Reed came back?.....Yes.Was I really going to leave every single thing he had bought for me behind?....Yes.Was that cruel?...Maybe.Did I feel guilty?...Not even a little.My fingers tightened at my side, if Reed came back and found the room empty, perhaps then he would finally understand that I was completely done with him. I waved down a cab and gave my house address. A deep sigh left me as I rested my head in the car seat. Reed needed to understand that money, expensive gifts, hospital rooms, bodyguards, flowers, or whatever else he could throw at me could not buy his way back into my life.By the time I reached home, my head was pounding. The moment I stepped out of the car, I realized the problem. "Shit."One of the security men noticed my hesitation and walked forward. "Madam?""I don't have cash on me. Can you lend me some? I'll pay you back."He immediately reached into his pocket."Of course, ma."I took the money
The Wife They Tried To Bury The sting of betrayal
Nova's point of view “You really should be ashamed of yourself, Nova.” Margaret’s voice sliced through the air before I could even react to the pain on my cheek.“Sleeping outside your husband’s house and coming back looking like…” she paused, her lips curling in disgust, “this….a filthy trash!”T
The Wife They Tried To Bury Breaking the rules
Nova's point of view The door of his sitting room barely clicked shut before his mouth crashed down on mine, kissing, biting and nibbling on my lips. He kissed like he’d invented it. And I followed his lead like I had no choice in the matter. He dragged his mouth away from mine, swore as he turne
The Wife They Tried To Bury Living a lie for five years
Nova's point of view I sat across from the doctor, barely hearing him. My fingers dug into the edge of the chair, my heartbeat loud enough to drown everything around me.“Mrs Nova? Are you listening to me?” The doctor’s calm voice sliced through the fog that clouded my brain.I shook my head, swal
The Wife They Tried To Bury My Anniversary Gift
Nova's point of view My fingers trembled slightly as I adjusted the lace that clung against my thighs. I held my breath, listening to the soft ticking of the clock echoing through the dim room. “Nova, you’ve got this,” I whispered to myself, pressing my palm against my chest trying to steady the
