Chapter 11Miles POV "I can't believe you made me do your dirty job on my first day here. I've been away for six years, is this how you are supposed to welcome me?" Miguel complained to me as I pulled over in front of the warehouse, and I rolled my eyes."Stop complaining," I replied to him casually as I pushed the car door open and alighted from the car. He did the same thing.Earlier today, I was in the office when I saw the video of someone being bullied online and I lost it the moment I realized that the person was May. My office was far from the park and since my brother said he was at the airport close to the park, I had to send him May's picture and the location so he could go take care of things there."Ugh! You are so annoying," He whined as he walked behind me. I tucked my hands inside my pockets as I strode toward the entrance of the warehouse, and the dark place welcomed us as soon as we walked inside."Where is he?" I turned to Miguel and asked once we were standing insi

Maybelline Walter POVI held my phone tightly contemplating on whether I should or not call Miles. Why was I worried about him, I had no idea. "It's normal to be worried. How will you get your balance if he doesn't come home?" I said to myself as I went to check the window again to see if he had already come in since I could see the parking lot from my window, but his car was not yet at the parking lot."Why is he taking so long?" I mumbled and finally dialled his number."Hey, wife," His deep voice sounded from the other end, and my heart missed a beat. I suddenly lost my voice and my breath hitched for a moment as my heart pumped hard."Are you there? May?" His voice sounded again and I pursed my lips and took a deep breath."Hmm. Sorry, I didn't intend to call you. I thought I dialed Lily's number," I rushed my words and quickly hung up."Fuck! What was that?" I breathed out and cursed as I held my chest. "You must've lost it for a moment, May. How could you have done that?" I wh

Maybelline Walter POVIt was the weekend and since I had nothing to do, I was going to sleep my ass off on the bed almost all day, but my plan was soon sabotaged by the knock on the door, forcing me to wake up."Who is there?" I groaned tiredly as I sat up on the bed."Good morning, ma'am. It's me, Adelie. Boss asked you to meet him in the gym," I heard Adelie's voice from outside and I yawned tiredly."Alright, I'll be there," I replied to her lazily and I heard her receding footsteps which I already assumed she was gone. I lay back on the bed and closed my eyes, and just like that, I was unconscious of where I was.I had no idea how long I'd been asleep until I heard a faint voice."Wife... Wake up," I was so engrossed in the sleep that I just tossed on the bed sleepily."I'm coming," I whined with my eyes closed."We need to go to the gym," I heard Miles's gentle voice again, and this time, I was forced to wake up. My jaw dropped when I opened my eyes and found him towering over me

Maybelline Walter POV"How is she now, doc? Is she fine? Does she need surgery?" Miles asked the doctor worriedly while I only stared in shock. I wasn't even feeling any pain anymore."She just needs to apply the ointment I gave her and she'll be fine. It's nothing to worry about," He breathed out after the doctor finished explaining to him."Thank you. I'll call you," He said to the doctor."Take care," And with that, the doctor left my room and Miles quickly came to sit in front of me."Are you ok? Do you need anything? Do you want me to massage your body for you, hmm?" He bombarded me with questions, but I just shook my head."I'm fine," I said to him, and he slowly nodded."Hmm..." He nodded."I wanted us to go shopping today, but we can do it tomorrow. You should rest for today," My face beamed with excitement when he said that."Shopping? Today?""Yes, but...""I'm fine, seriously. I'll go bath and get dressed so we can leave," I said excitedly as I jumped off the bed."You stil

Maybelline Walter POVI got bored of staying inside the room, so I decided to take a walk to the kitchen to get water as I was thirsty.I heard the sound of a machine coming from the kitchen as I descended the staircase and I presumed it was Adelie in there, so I proceeded downstairs."Hey, sister-in-law. How are you feeling now?" Miguel, who was in the living room and playing video games turned and asked me as soon as I walked inside the living room."Yes, I'm fine. Thank you. Miles told me you checked up on me. Thanks a lot," I smiled at him, and he nodded."Anything for you, sister-in-law," It felt really weird having him call me that, and even though I wanted to tell him to just address me by my name, a part of me felt it would be rude, so I just let it be.I strode into the kitchen to get water, and upon opening the door, I found Miles making orange juice. He paused when he saw me enter the kitchen."Oh, you're here?" He smiled at me widely like he was so excited to see me."Hmm.

Maybelline Walter POV"Thanks for the other day, Mr. Miguel," Lily smiled at Miguel."Hmm," Miguel just hummed and nodded, his face not leaving the road as he drove down the driveway. Lily was seated beside Miguel in the front seat, and I was in the backseat with Miles."Are you ok?" My heart missed a beat when Miles held my hand and asked the gentlest voice ever, and I slowly nodded. Everything he does makes my heart awkwardly flutter."Mr. Miguel...""Just call me Miguel," Miguel cut Lily off, and she slowly nodded."Miguel... Uhm... Do you mind going out on a date with me tomorrow? We could just hang out at the restaurant and you know, get to know ourselves," I almost choked on my spit when Lily boldly said that to Miguel. For goodness sake, why the fuck has my friend chosen to embarrass me in this manner?"Lily..." I whispered, but Miles held my hand firmly and when I looked at him, he shook his head for me to leave them be."No, I'm not interested," Miguel replied to her coldly,

"I think you should buy this. It'll look good on you," Lily picked a black t-shirt and sampled it on Miguel's body, while he just stood with his hands tucked inside his pockets frustratingly."I don't like it," He replied to her casually, and she rolled her eyes."Come on, Miguel. It would look really good on you," Lily insisted, and Miguel briefly sighed."Can you stop trying your best, Ms. Lily? I'm not interested in you. I already have a girlfriend," Miguel said to her politely, crushing the last hope she had left in her. Her hand dropped to her side, and she bit her bottom lip."You will find someone who would love you, but that person is not me, so can you please quit being like this?" Miguel further said as he looked her in the eyes."I really don't have a problem with your girlfriend, Miguel. You are not married yet, and there is every chance that I can still win you over and snatch you from your girlfriend," She shrugged once she got back her confidence, managing to put on a s

Maybelline Walter POV'Wife, I need to take care of something. I'll be back shortly' Miles had said to me with a worried look on his face as soon as he drove us into the house, and he drove off without even entering inside. I tried to get him to talk to me about what was going on, but he didn't say anything before he drove off, and it got me all worried over here."Do you need help with anything, ma'am?" Adelie asked as she walked into the living room where I was seated tiredly."Just get me a glass of water, please," I replied to her tiredly. My waist hurt so badly like I had a load on it, and I presumed it could be the pregnancy doing that to me."Here, ma'am," Adelie soon returned with the water and handed it to me."Thank you," I muttered as I took the glass from her and drank from the chilled water, just how I wanted it."Do you need help with anything else? Do you want me to massage your feet for you? You must be tired from the...""I'm fine, Adelie. You should get some rest too

Maybelline Walter POV 'Are you in love with Miles?' Those words replayed in my head for the umpteenth time as I sat on the edge of my bed. Those words had been living rent-free in my head all day, and all efforts to stop thinking about it had proven abortive."He is not your style, May. Lily is just being crazy," I reminded myself before I left for the bathroom to shower and go downstairs for dinner.After I was done bathing and changing into something convenient, I went to the dining room."Miles is not back yet?" I asked Adelie when I got to the dining room."Good evening, ma'am. No, Mr. Miles is not back yet," She replied to me, and I slowly nodded as I took a seat at the dining table."Where is he?" I mumbled, a bit worried about him. He hasn't been home after he left earlier, so it was fine for me to be worried about him, yeah?"Are you ok, ma'am?" Adelie's voice pulled me out of my deep thoughts, and I nodded as I looked at her."Hmm. I'm fine," I forced a smile at her. Further

Maybelline Walter POV"May... Can we talk, please?" Miles knocked on the door for the second time, but I remained silent. No way I was going to open the door for him after everything he had done to me.I heard him sigh."I'm sorry about yesterday... I didn't know you were going to wait up for me. I didn't mean to hurt you. Something came up and I had to stay back and handle it. I'm really sorry," He spoke from outside, but I just rolled my eyes."Go away, Miles. I don't need your explanation," "I'm sorry, wife... I would never do something to hurt you. Can you please open the door?" He pleaded again, and this time, I finally stood up from the floor and pulled the door open."You are crying?" He raised one of his eyebrows surprisingly, but I quickly wiped my tears and turned my face away embarrassingly."I wasn't crying," I mumbled."I'm sorry, okay?" He cupped my cheek in his palm and stared into my eyes. His eyes were so charming and sexy that I could only wish to stare for long if
