KatherineI stared at Conrad as he left the house without speaking a word. What Clara had said was true, he was ghosting everyone, and was being harsh on himself. And I couldn't help but blame myself for all of it.I knew all this was probably because of what had happened that night. I was being completely honest, but I guessed my blatant honesty had done much harm than good. He had become lean, and his appearance was pale and unhealthy. I hated seeing him like this, it broke my heart. I was heavily concerned about him, but I couldn't overcome my pride, and summon the courage to confront him about it.I headed towards my room immediately after breakfast. Aside from the study, It was the only place I truly felt comfortable in this entire house.I reached my room and immediately made for my cellphone. I had an important thing to do, and it would all begin with this phone call. I dialed Ricardo's number and immediately put a call through to him. I wanted him to run an errand for me, and

Katherine"Could you please get the shrimp away from me? I thought that you already know by now, that it makes me feel nausea," I said to the maid, loud enough for the passing Conrad to hear.My maid hurriedly cleared away my part of the table, and hurried out of the dinning room with it. I watched Conrad pause, he had heard me. And I could guess my words had gotten to him, but I didn't care.I waited patiently for the maid to return with something else for me, while my eyes randomly trailed to where Conrad sat in the living room. He was lost in thoughts, and the only thing that seemed to have any effects on him was my voice."Now this is what a healthy food looks like. I and my baby will do well to enjoy this " I praised the maid to Conrad's hearing. And in the next moment he smashed the TV remote into the ground. I was at the verge of breaking down into a laughter by his action, but I desisted from it. It wasn't funny, I knew that. Yet I wanted him to understand just how I used to f

ConradIt was wrong, I knew it was. But I did it anyways. With Frank's help we were able to hack into Katherine's phone, and we had gotten information on her and Aiden. It was weird, Katherine hadn't started speaking to Aiden till after our divorce, and the security cameras outside the house have never captured any figure that resembled Aiden throughout the time we were married.There was a possibility that she might have cheated outside, I was barely home. And I kept no tabs on her movement back then. And there was also the possibility of her wiping away anything that might get her and Aiden implicated. Katherine was smart, so it wouldn't be a surprise if she had actually done so.We had reached a wall, and now everything was stagnant. Aside from the basic information we had on Aiden, there was nothing we knew about him. Katherine's phone on the other hand didn't provide much information, and it was driving me insane."I'll look further into this Aiden of a guy. Right now you have t

Conrad"Can you just get out of my face Katherine!" I screamed at the lady whose sole existence was beginning to honestly anger me. "You can't just wake up any day and decide to make this big change in a sealed agreement. Is Aiden in support of this?!""Aiden's support is of no business to you. You have the files, sign up or we can end our partnerships right here right now" Katherine said with a sense of finality and indifference. She meant every word she said, and I knew that not signing these papers was going to cost me much more than I imagined."What is wrong with you?! What on earth is wrong with you?!" I yelled at her after I had finished signing on the papers."What is wrong with me?" Katherine repeated with a cynical aura engulfed around words. "I have no idea Conrad, perhaps you're in a better position to answer that question. Don't you think?" She threw back at my face."Don't you dare to blackmail me Katherine! You can't buy your way out of this by using the past. We both k

ConradLately, life’s been choosing to challenge my mental health, and it had gone way too far with it's recent development. Clara and Lina had just walked in with the announcement that Clara was pregnant. And though I should be happy that I was going to be a father, it was the exact opposite for me. "Pregnant? For who?" Those were the first questions I asked immediately Clara announced the news of her pregnancy. I kept a stern stare on her trying to read any sort of lies from her face, but she seemed to be honest at that moment.Clara wasn't exactly the most honest person I know She always found her way out of trouble through lies and fake acts. And it had registered in my head that she was a pathetic liar. However it was different this time. She seemed like was actually telling the truth, and it made matters worse.I couldn't remember having any intimate affair with Clara, so how on earth was this even possible? Unless....'No, nothing happened' I tried to convince myself. My mind
