CHAPTER FORTY-ONE."Interesting." Adele murmured to herself as she stepped out of the elevator with her eyes focused on her watch. The time read eight pm and she was just returning from work.There was so much work at the office and they all had to work overtime. The good thing was that the next day was Saturday, weekend and she did not have to go to work. All she wanted to do at that moment was go into her apartment and sleep from that time till the next morning because she was very exhausted.As she approached her door, she took out her key from her bag and swiped it on the lock for the door to open up. She stepped into the house and the first thing she did was take off her shoes and put on the fluffy slippers she always put in her little corridor before heading to the living room.When she stepped in, she froze on her tracks when she saw Jamal comfortably seated on one of her sofas in the living room. His tux jacket was resting on another sofa and he was watching a football match

CHAPTER FORTY-THREE."Adele." The voice came through again after several minutes of silence. Adele, who was exhausted at that time, found a nearby seat and slumped on it. From the very overwhelming conversation with the doctor and now a call from Jamal. The men were definitely bent on making her lose her sanity that afternoon."Jamal." She finally whispered. "Why are you calling me?" Her voice was shaky. It had been one year since she heard from him, but he had suddenly shown up again and she had no idea what he wanted."It's been one year since we last saw or spoke to each other, Adele… don't you miss me?" His voice was calm and if Adele didn't know the man who was taking over the phone all too well, she would say his words were genuine, but knowing Jamal to be a beast who had no interest in her, she knew he was lying, she just didn't know why he was lying to her."I don't." She simply replied."I highly doubt that.""That's your problem, not mine. What do you want, Jamal?" She aske

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE.Adele bit her lips hard as she let his words sink in her brain. He was striking every nerve in her body and getting her extremely enraged with every word he said. The only thing she could feel for him at the time was hatred. She hated the fact that he had come back to her life, she hated the fact that he had the power and connections to do whatever he wanted at any time, she hated him for ruining her life.She loathed him with every fibre in her body and if she were to set eyes on him at that moment, she would give him two solid snacks on both his left and right cheeks, then maybe her anger would subside after that. "You are nothing but a sick bastard.""I am just an unfortunate man who married a very beautiful woman. A woman who looks pleasant in the eyes of every man. The most desired woman in the world. I have to protect her at all costs, otherwise hungry lions will devour her for me before I even realise it.""The only hungry lion devouring me right now is yo

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN.Adele arrived at the conglomerate at exactly eight am. The moment she got out of the car, the valet showed up and she gave her car keys to him. She looked up at the mighty skyscraper standing before her and she didn't know whether to frown or smile. Jamal was definitely doing well for himself, but he was ruining her life in every possible way.She stepped into the lobby and was awed by how quiet and organized the place was. There were men dressed in black at every corner of the lobby. They were surely security personnels. She thanked her stars for having dressed properly that morning. Everyone looked glamorous and elegant. "Adele Mackenzie." She heard a female voice call her name and she immediately froze on her tracks and looked around, totally confused. Her heart was racing in her chest. "Behind you." The voice signaled. Adele turned around and her gaze fell on a well dressed woman, probably in her early forties who was staring at her with a blank expression.

CHAPTER FORTY-NINE.Adele couldn't understand Jamal's sudden change in behaviour towards her. Ever since they lost their child, he had been treating her like she meant the world to him. Like she was the only person who mattered to him and that freaked her out a great deal.She had already made peace with the fact that he did not love or care about her and now that he was acting so differently, it scared her because she did not know what to think or how to handle the situation.The damage had been done and she wanted nothing to do with him, but he seemed to not be d'accord with that fact.The entire day went by with her laying at home. She slept for the better part of the day and by nightfall, she decided to watch a movie before going to pick out the outfit she was going to wear to work the next day.Now that she had seen that everyone at the company dressed elegantly, she was going to her best to dress well so that blending in will not be difficult. Her first experience was not a good
