*** Nora was shocked and couldn't believe her eyes, she had never seen Rufus get this violent."Oh my God! What's wrong with you?" Their mother cried out as Rufus began breathing heavily, he was filled with so much annoyance. "Stop this madness Rufus, have you decided to show them how crazy you are? I am so ashamed of you right now," Bella whispered into Rufus' ear and tried to pull him to sit but he slapped her hands off immediately with a deadly glare.Rufus darted his eyes to Nora and he stared at her with a hurtful look. Nora swallowed so hard and looked away immediately."Enough! How dare you hurt your brother Rufus? What has gotten over you? Now sit down on your seat right now!" Enoch ordered in an authoritative voice but Rufus refused stubbornly. "Dad! I won't fold my arms and allow…." "Sit down this minute and stop embarrassing your wife. Have you forgotten that you're now married to Bella and your brother's choice of spouse is none of your business. Sit down this minute!"

** The next day **"Get the fuck out of my way!" Rufus yelled as he pushed the guards and made his way into Richard's mansion.As soon as he got in, he met Richard who was already dressed for work stepping down the stairs."Wow! Who do we have here? I was expecting you though," Richard said with a chuckle as he adjusted his tie and Rufus balled his fist fuming in anger."How dare you? How dare you Richard! Is this how far you can go just to make me feel pained?" Rufus screamed out angrily. They were standing close to each other now."What the heck are you rambling about? Why are you looking so pissed little bro?" Richard asks, pretending not to know about what Rufus was making a fuss about."Oh really? So now you're acting like you don't know what I am talking about, right? Why does it have to be Nora? Why!" "Oh! So this is all about Nora? Why are you so angry? You've gotten another lady so why don't you let Nora be?" "You and I know that I foolishly fell into Bella's trap? Do you

***"What the heck is your problem? We had a deal and I paid you handsomely for it. I am now a married woman so why won't you let me rest? Why won't you allow me to have my peace?" Bella yelled angrily at Denmark and the latter chuckled.Denmark was a guy she had a deal with a few months back and they have been having a disagreement since then.Denmark took a sip from his glass of wine and winked sexily at Bella."What was that for? You still haven't told me the reason why you called me out this night," He suddenly pulled Bella by her waist and the latter glared at him irritatedly. He tried to kiss her but Bella turned her face away. "I told you that I am married now and we can't continue doing this." "But you look starved, you want me so bad, your eyes say it all. I have missed you." Denmark whispered and tried to kiss her again but she immediately pushed him off."What is wrong with you? Can't you see that people are watching?" Bella said in a low tune so as not to attract the a

***Rufus balled his fist after Nora ended Greg's call, he heard everything and the one that caught his attention the most was Richard requesting for Nora's presence, she is obviously at his place. The kiss he had with Bella wasn't intentional, he wasn't just in his right senses. He just couldn't put himself together after witnessing Nora accept his brother's proposal. He had to run to his friend's place for comfort, they are the only shoulders available for him to lean on and cry his eyes out."Take it easy man, maybe you have got to accept reality, you're the cause of all these so I don't blame her for choosing to get married to your brother. I hope you haven't forgotten that Richard was interested in Nora before you even got married to her. The opportunity to claim her is here now and he wouldn't want to let it go easily. This is entirely your fault Rufus!" Greg blamed him as he pocketed his phone. Rufus took a deep breath and ruffled his hair, it's hard trying to take everythi

*** Rufus kept pacing to and fro at the reception feeling so nervous and worried. Throughout his two years of marriage with Nora, she has never visited the hospital. Nora fainting unexpectedly scares the hell out of him, he really wishes he could go into her mind and find out what has been stressing her out. "Fuck! Why aren't the doctors or any of the nurses saying anything yet," Rufus muttered as he ruffled his hair. "Rufus! Rufus! Where's that bastard?!" Richard yelled out angrily as he stepped into the hospital.Rufus was surprised to see him because he didn't inform anyone about what happened to Nora. When Richard sighted Rufus waiting at the reception, he rushed towards him and gave him a hard punch without thinking twice. Blood flew out of Rufus's mouth as he staggered backwards.The attention of everyone present was drawn immediately. Richard didn't give Rufus the opportunity to recover before punching him again."You fucking bastard! How dare you go close to my woman?!
