CHAPTER THIRTY ONE**"Sterling?" Faith was on the verge of sleep, but this conversation had been held back for too long, it was time they finally talk about it. Once again, they've had sex. Raw. She knew she was on the pill, but how could he be so careless to not have asked about it?She found it scary because Sterling had always been a thorough man, why did he forget such an important aspect of their lives this time?"Hmm?" His deep voice resonated. Faith stared at him, bare-chested as he was, he met her gaze. "This need to stop!" Faith whispered in a low but firm tone, for a moment she saw the confusion displayed on his features. "I mean, I don't think we're being careful enough, y_you've never used protection and even though I'm on the pill, there is still a slight chance of me getting pregnant!" Faith rushed out the words in one breath. A pause of silence followed and an awkward sensation trickled down her spine, this was not a conversation she loved to discuss with anyon

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE**Mondays were exhausting as usual, it always seemed to be the longest of all the days.Frequent meetings, fixing appointments, and summing up the previous week's data. It was something Faith would never get used to despite her years of working at the office. She hurriedly walked towards the cafeteria, even though it was her coffee break, she still had a lot of workload to be completed. "___ you might be w_wrong! Tell me you're joking!" Faith heard Darla's familiar high-pitched voice. "I certainly heard it right! Remember, that famous reporter? I told you I overheard some parts of their conversation, do you think she really got married to the boss?"Faith froze at the doorway. She stared from Darla to Yvonne, there were some other colleagues present as well. There were gossiping openly about the one thing she had strived the most to be kept hidden."Now, you are reaching! Why would Mr. Hunter tie the knot with that ugly slut! I don't believe you and I also

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE**Faith splashed cold water across her face repeatedly, her eyes met her reflection in the mirror, and a crease formed between her brows. . Mornings were always a delight for her because she was always so energetic, but for the last couple of days, it didn't seem to be so. She always woke up with a headache and seemed to lack the appetite for anything. She cupped her face with her palms, she wasn't sick but at the same time, she wasn't feeling alright. Her eyes spotted the glittering necklace on her neck and lingered. Even though Sterling was away, he'd never failed to daily send all sorts of gifts to her, while she loved and cherished everything he gave her, she wasn't quite satisfied. She needed the man himself. Was she falling only ill because she was missing him terribly? Was that even possible? For the first time since they got married, Faith had to experience how lonely the huge house could be. It felt so cold.Maybe it was he who ruined her, n

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN**Faith slowly regained consciousness, the first thing her brain registered was the strong nauseating smell of antiseptics. Her eyes fluttered open and she slowly looked around. Confusion kicked in as she realized she seemed to be in a hospital. She tried to suddenly sit up and had to wince at the prickling pain, an IV needle was connected to her hand. How the hell did she end up here? She thought. It took only three seconds for the memories to come rushing. She stiffened on the bed, the coldness spreading across her skin, penetrating through her bones. She had found it weird that in all the banks she approached, none had agreed to grant her the loan, she had also failed to acquire a new job, but why would all these be related to Sterling? Faith bit her lips sharply, she desperately wanted to trust Sterling, he'd been the only person to arrange her crumbling life, always had been there when she needed him. She stared at the wedding band around her finger,

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE **"Yes, you heard me, I want a divorce!" Faith heard his sharp intake of breath, the bedside lamp allowed her to see the hardening of his jaw, but her decision was made. Even though she wasn't sure if she was going to be alright without him, this was probably the better option for the both of them. "You are not allowed to casually say things like that, whatever that is wrong, we can both calmly sort it out?""Did you just say sort it out?" Faith flamed, getting off the bed to glare at him. "Where exactly do we start to sort it out? Perhaps all the lies you told me or the things you did behind my back, how dare you! You played me like a complete idiot!" Faith breathed angrily extending a hand to block him when he tried to step forward. "You turned my life upside down as you pleased, Who exactly do you think you are, Mr. Sterling Hunter!" She yelled. Sterling inhaled deeply, it was as he suspected. She found out something, he didn't know how much but conside
