CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE.The same calm atmosphere was maintained between Adele and Jamal for the rest of the week.

Her friend Linda, successfully found the house and paid the rent. Adele had also found a way to furnish the house, all without Jamal's knowledge. Everything was set and now, all she had to do was think of a way to escape his claws.

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE.The next thing on Adele's to do list was to apply for a job. She had gone shopping for new clothes, a new phone and some groceries and now she was home in her apartment. Before going shopping, she had met up with Linda, who gave her the keys to her house.She was very proud of all that she had managed to do and prayed to God to give her the strength to move on from Jamal and their failed marriage. She knew Jamal would never take her request for a divorce seriously if she kept living under his roof, but he would when she moved out and started living on her own because she was convinced that he did not like her one bit.During her pregnancy, she fell in love with Jamal and that was one reason why she craved his attention and almost died every time she saw him flirting with Danielle.

You instructed that lowlife to not let me into your office whenever I come? Do you know how embarrassing that is?" Danielle asked, raising her voice."Danielle, you can't just come into my office anytime you wish. I am a busy man and I am not always available to

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN.Adele had her last hospital appointment at the hospital that morning. The doctor told her she was totally healed and could go on with her physical activities.
