Todos los capítulos de STUBBORN HEARTS - LOVING WRONG: Capítulo 31 - Capítulo 40

Sometimes, it is not always about what we are against. It is not always about cowering in the shadows of ‘this is bigger than me’ or ‘ I cannot handle this’. It is not always about what you will lose. It is all about getting to the point of taking the mantle and wearing the armor and being ready to confront your fears and everything that is a threat to your peace and happiness. It is all about what we are fighting for and how much we are willing to do for what we are fighting for. It is all about allowing the willpower to come out of your shell and drive you. The willingness to risk your all to fight for and protect what you hold dearestAnd this damsel has just had it with running and hiding. I want a peaceful life for my daughter. I do not want to raise her in fear and run from one place to another. I ran from the Mazurs for her safety. I refused to fight my stepfamily back then, also for her own safety. But that is enough. This is where I draw the line. This is the turning point wh

“Excuse me?” I squeal, banking all my notoriety on him to hearken to his dumbfounding ridiculousness again. Julie is still gawking at him with dismay, her mouth still hanging open.“I want you back to work!” He elucidates, and I discharge out a breath that I did not know I was holding, while Julie’s face drops and she closes her mouth.At least, it was that. He should have gone straight to the point and not given a half-nonsensical string of words. But if he was aiming to anger me, he succeeded because I was arranging a series of profanities to howl at him.“Why? You and your family are a bunch of cunning beings. What kind of games are you playing with me again? What do you stand to gain from me working for you? What other evil plans are you all cooking this time around?” I ask, and he heaves a deep sigh, as if he had muttered a white lie. As if I am being a drama queen. As if I am accusing the saints.I commend the school where he went for his master's in acting, because looking at h

“Are you thinking straight, Irma? What the heck was that out there, huh? Forget about speaking to that son of a bitch, but accepting to work for him? Are you joking?” Julie squeals as we stroll back inside the house.I knew she would not reverse my decision back there. I could see it in her eyes. How she was scorching my cheek with her stern gaze. How she remained awfully mute in the last part of the discussion. I knew she would bombard me with questions the minute that jerk left.“I am not joking, Julie. Finding work is not easy, and you know it. And again, I do not want to compromise my daughter’s life for anything. Until I can find something else better, I will work for that jerk!” I state.“Your baby daddy, Irma!” Shit! I was about to drop on the couch, but that trikes me up as we lock eyes. “Have you forgotten that and all that you have been through because of that man and his family?” She asks.Is she serious? Of all the people in the world, she is the one asking me that questio

An hour later.I dial the driver’s number again.If anyone would ask him, he has met with a very impatient person today that he probably would never want to even have a client. But can anyone blame me? I am used to either Julie being with my child or myself. But this is a stranger we are talking about. That fact alone has not allowed me to even just sit down. I have been pacing back and forth eve since.The call rings and rings and rings.No answer. A ripple of fear breaks in me, paralyzing my bones. He has been in communications all the time since I started banging him with my endless calls, even asking him to let me speak to my daughter which he did without hesitation.Second round of ring. Still goes unanswered.Now, what happened to that old man? Have I annoyed him that much to ignore my calls? He better pick if he doesn’t want me breaking his neck when he gets here! That is my child he is carrying so I have all the reasons to be worried sick. I have all the reasons to call him ev

“The kid seems a bit old. Does that mean you had another affair before you got married? If so, why did you leave your baby mama and marry another woman? Are you two still together?”Now, this last one is the worst of all these nosy, pesky, idiotic fools! Like, how long did it take her to gather all those questions? Baby mama? I am nobody’s baby mama. However, the weight of their accusations is weighing so heavily on me that I want this ground to open and swallow me and my child for a minute to escape this shame. The heat is becoming so intense that I am suffocating. The cameras are still blinking at us as if they want to impair us.“Mr. Rayson? What do you have to say about these? Are you having an affair behind your wife's back?” Another one spoke, and I finally had to unveil my face so that I could finally face these people.Affair? Seriously? I have had enough!I look at the cameras, not even scared of the outcome of my full face on display beside the renown Rayson Drew Mazur.“I d
