"You b*tch!" In a blink of an eye, she managed to slap me. "I gave my trust to you! I let you step inside my house because I thought you're true! But I was wrong for thinking I let a human insid3, because you're a snake! A snake!" That was the last straw. I raised my hands to slap her back. She stepped back at the impact. "You bitch! You're a whore!" she shouted hysterically. Marcus tried to stop her by holding both her arms. But she didn't budge and fwced the guests. "Look at this woman! She's my husband's mistress!" She say it louder and clearer. "You might swallow your words! " I talked back. "Alessandra, that's enough! Something bad might happen to you" Marcus said. "I won't stop until I erase this woman's face!" she shouted. "Is that what you want? I'll tell you the truth. In front of everybody so you'll shut up!" I started to raise my voice. I saw Marcus froze and unconsciously loosened his grip on

I stopped teasing him. I actually missed these moments with him. Like we don't have any problems. No walls between us. I'm happy that we're slowly going back to what we were before. I was happy at the result of his visits here in the Villa. We always do movie marathon every weekends like we usually do. He also make sure that I don't do anything in the house. He hired a housekeeper to help me with some stuffs and do the laundry. At the very least, I rested my mind from overthinking. I don't think too much about tomorrows because Ellwood is there. "What do you want to watch?" he asked me one afternoon while holding the remote control. I was laying on the sofa while my feet was on his lap. The bowl of popcorn was on my stomach. "Anything, you're the only who's gonna watch it..." He glanced at me and lifted his lips. "Are you gonna sleep on me again, huh?" Before I could say anything, he reached my waist and tickled md. In the end,

"How could you say that in front me, huh?! I gave all my life looking for you. I didn't stop. My world almost crumpled to pieces when I lost you! I lost everything, my life, my dreams, my happiness and I lost the man of my life! The man who promised me of forever!" I shouted with full of rage. My tears were welled up. I want to spend all my strength to hurt him to ease the pain I was feeling but no, I just became weaker and my wound's got deeper. I couldn't do anything when he pulled me into an embrace while I kept on punching his back. "I hate you! Get out of life, I don't need you!" I frantically shouted. "No, please... don't say that..." he said in a sharp breath, his hug tightening. "I can't do this anymore, Zeki! I'm tired, I had too much!" I cried. He withdrew and cupped my cheeks. His dark eyes bore into mine. I gasped, I want to look away but he didn't let me. "Yes, I admit I married, Alessandra without knowing my past.

"What are you doing here?!" "I have important things to do here for a couple of weeks or months maybe..." he said casually then shrugged his shoulder. I rolled my eyes, as if I care! "Alessandra went back to San Marcelino. She's with Marcus and Cassandra." he said in a low voice. "And why are you still here? Why didn't you come with them?" I said sarcastically. I saw his jaw clenched. Tss, the jerk got hit somewhere! He didn't hear anything from me so he walked to the drawer and pulled a glass. "Woah–Wait! What are you actually doing?!" I stood up from my seat. He was holding the glass when he faced me. Then his eyes slowly dropped down to my belly. I held my breath for about a second as his eyes enthralled on me. I felt my knees tremble. I just wanted to find a crack on the ground and swallow me whole right now. "I... uh, I'll give you some water!" I quickly turned around and around to o

I shook my head. "No, let's not. You know I'm not fond of those things." I reasoned. "Alright, how about this. I will drop by to your house then bring you some food, how was that?" I contemplated whether to agree or not. It will be bad if he happens to meet Hezekiah in the house. What will I reason out? The situation might just get worse if they see each other. "Uh, maybe in another day..." I murmured over the phone. "Why ? Do you have to go somewhere?" I heaved a deep sigh before replying. "Nothing really, I just thought I'll bother you." "I'll be busy for the next weeks. I need to fly to Australia, I have a conference meeting there. I might stay there for a week. Imagine that? So I want to spend my time here with you..." I sighed. "O-okay, whatever you want..." I murmured again. I ended the call and leaned against the chair. I sat there for minutes before I realized the time. I immediately stood up and bid goodbye to
