“…you are free to leave the mental home.”

I wasn’t sure what he meant by that, and so I stood there, staring at the both of them, bamboozled.

“Ivy Silver, did you hear what I just told you?” The first official asked when he wasn’t getting any response from me.

“Sorry, what…what did you just say to me?” I asked him, still unable to comprehend what he was saying.

“That you are free to go, Ivy. You have been released from the mental health home,” he repeated, sounding more emphatically this ti

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   A Shoftened Heart

    ALEXAI went to check who was at the door, and to my confusion, it was a woman who was well into her thirties.“Hello, good day, ma’am,” she greeted with a warm smile.“Good morning,” I responded, still wondering who she was and what she was doing here. “How may I help you?” I asked her.“You must be Miss Alexa Silver, right?” She inquired.“Yes, that’s me,” I responded.“My name is Lora, and I am here because I have been hired as your personal chef and nutritionist,” she responded.I became confused.“Hired? I didn’t…” I started, but she interrupted me respectfully.“Mr. Mark Ronaldo did the hiring, ma’am. I am simply here to start working,” she said.“Oh,” I said, almost speechless. “May I come in?” She requested politely when I didn’t usher her in.“Forgive my manners; of course, you may come in,” I said.And then I ushered her into the living room. “Give me a moment,” I requested.“Of course, ma’am,” Lora responded.I left her and went to the dining table to make a call.

    MARKI found our table easily and slid into the empty seat in front of Vector.“You look upset,” Vector said as he signaled the waiter.“I am upset by a couple of things,” I responded.“What’s wrong?” Vector asked me.“I ran into Donald on my way out. He was on his way in,” I responded tightly. “Was he in here?” I asked even though it was clear that he was.“If he was, I really didn’t see him because I have been engrossed with my phone,” Vector responded.“Does he now come here?” I asked Vector.This was about the third time that I was running into Donald here and it was becoming obvious that he also came here to have a good time.Vector shrugged and said, “It would seem like.”I became more pissed off.“Why on earth should he be coming here? What happened to Dancing Devils? Wasn’t that where he usually went?” I asked Vector.He was one of the reasons I stopped going to that club.When he came back to Paris, Donald made it a point of duty to always visit the club, and I was already ge

    MARK“Is there anything else?” I asked Reyna after she was done with what I asked her to do.I glanced at my watch and saw that it was almost time for me to close up for the day.“Nothing more, sir,” she responded, but she didn’t leave.“What is it, Reyna?” I asked her.“I know I shouldn’t be prying, but you have been sulking all day, sir,” Reyna said. “Is anything the matter?” She asked.“No, there isn’t,” I responded.“Are you sure?” Reyna asked more deeply.If she wasn’t very competent, and added to the fact that I knew that she was simply being caring, I might have been upset with her because I didn’t want anyone prodding me like this.“Yes, Reyna, I am sure,” I responded. “Well, what about the chef I asked you to find?” I asked her.Earlier in the day, I had spoken to her about hiring a chef for Alexa because I wanted her to be well fed and taken care of.Thankfully, the doctor was kind enough to give me a list of foods that might help her get better, and with the help of a paid

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   One Word Of Advice

    ALEXAI stayed in my dad’s room, which had now become my room, to get some rest, and after a while, my phone rang.I was shocked to see that it was Noelle.For a moment, I stared at my phone screen as though I couldn’t tell who was calling, and that was because I was utterly stunned that she was calling.Noelle hadn’t called me in days.Ever since I found out what she did and I tried to reach her by calling and texting and she never responded, I simply stopped trying.So why was she calling me now?I contemplated whether or not I should pick up, and I was still on it when the call ended. I noticed that my heart was beginning to race faster. I was still upset with her.Then she began to call again, and I just found myself picking up.The call connected, but we were both silent for some seconds, and I knew I wasn’t going to say a word until she did.If she called to simply stay quiet, then I would also stay quiet.“Alexa,” Noelle eventually said, her voice in a whisper.“How could you,

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Prepare For Fatherhood

    MARK“Excuse me, what did you just say?” I asked Mona, hoping that I either didn’t hear her correctly or I didn’t understand what she was saying.“I said I am suffering from early pregnancy sickness,” Mona answered more emphatically.My heart began to race faster.She couldn’t be serious!Did she mean what she just said? I was a hundred percent certain a few seconds ago that she had gotten rid of the pregnancy, judging from my interaction with her receptionist at her gift store and her housekeeper downstairs. What the heck was she talking about?“Most women have it during the first weeks of their pregnancy,” Mona added.But I didn’t care for her damned explanation.I wouldn’t know this because I wasn’t present during the first weeks of Alexa’s pregnancy, and it just dawned on me that during her dad’s funeral and the fair, which were good chances to see her but I didn’t, Alexa was already carrying my child.I had to mentally shake off the thought from my head because it wasn’t import

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   The Feeling Of Elation

    MARKI arrived at Mona’s store, which used to be Alexa’s store, and I didn’t help because I was reminded of Alexa all over again; each time I came here, I was always reminded of Alexa. Anyway, I parked and got down.“Hi, good day, Mr. Mark!” Her receptionist greeted me with cheerfulness.It was expected because she knew that Mona and I were seeing each other.A lot of people knew after the fair, actually, and it was a good thing that they didn’t make such a fuss about it because it would have put me in a very uncomfortable situation. I wasn’t ready to show anyone to the city as my partner.If Mona wasn’t so clingy that day, no one would have guessed.“Hey, good day,” I responded. “Is Mona in?” I asked her.“Um, no, she is not,” the receptionist answered. “She hasn’t been here today,” she added, much to my surprised.“Oh, is that so?” I asked. “Yeah,” she responded. “When was the last time she was here?” I asked.“A few days ago,” she answered.“Do you know why?” I asked carefully.M

    MARKI couldn’t shake off everything Brent revealed to me. How could she?I might not know much about how Mr. Silver ran his household, but one thing was certain; he ensured that Clara and Ivy were well catered for. I didn’t even know that Ivy wasn’t his biological child until I got close enough to

    ALEXAI had thought of going for a press release regarding my business, as advised by Shirley, but when Noelle heard about it, she disagreed.“I think you shouldn’t at this moment, Alexa, especially now that you are not even sure that you can be stable until after your dad’s funeral,” Noelle had sa

Of course, I would still help out in any way that I could, but I would not go back to chasing her again. I made several attempts to show her that I car
