Chapter 141HEATHER’S POVI knew he will find it hard to believe because she was his wife and all that love and trust shit. But I continued, determined to make him see that his wife was nothing but a phoney. A lying snake and sly fox.“Haven’t you seen the way she keeps her face whenever you talk or get close to me? I came back without any belongings so I have no clothes or accessories or skin products. This nightgown I’m wearing is hers too. I know she said it’s okay for me to wear her clothes and use her stuff, but deep down I can tell she’s not happy about it.”Richard looked away, keeping a serious expression as if in deep thought. But traces of doubts lingered in his eyes despite his attempt to appear composed.“Sooner or later, she is going to believe that I’m going to be a major problem in your marriage and will convince you to send me away,” I whined, pretending to be sad. “She might even start doing things to ruin me or make me look bad in front of you just to prove I’m a pr

Chapter 143BIANCA’S POVRichard didn’t come back to bed last night. But I tried not to panic or think of the worst-case scenario as I made breakfast. Last night, he said a lot of things before leaving that got me thinking all through the night.I needed to amend my attitude especially my insecurity and tendency to jump to conclusions. I can’t keep living like this. I will lose everything I cherish if I continue like this. Lots of people have complained about it including Nina. I have promised to change before but never followed through. Today, I’m really committed to making a positive change in myself.“Please understand B. This is a very vulnerable time for her. The least we can do is support her and support ourselves too in this fight against Ben. We shouldn’t be fighting each other at such a critical time. Remember we are a team. We take on everything together. I love you, and I will never stop loving you. I haven’t forgotten the reassurance I gave you two days back, but if it’s

Chapter 145BIANCA’S POVI filled Richard in on everything as I promised, leaving him quite stunned and then posted that cute selfie of us with the caption ‘WHAT’S BETTER THAN HAVING BREAKFAST WITH THAT SPECIAL PERSON BY YOUR SIDE?’It was the best caption I could come up with and it was cute and romantic. I used a few hashtags that Nina suggested for me and first sent it to her for her opinion before posting. She liked it. She said it was cute and simple, but I should think of something bigger in our next post. I was still trying to get a hang of all this. I didn’t know what she meant by ‘bigger’.“Seriously how do you do it?” I asked Richard, looking at him keenly as I took tiny bites of fruit from my plate. “In all my time staying with you, I haven’t seen you talk about social media or even take pictures or enter online, yet you are always trending without trying. Just how do you do it?”There was just one pancake remaining on his plate. He chugged it down his throat in one go and

Chapter 147BIANCA’S POV Just to make sure we had an awesome experience, I decided to take Heather to the largest shopping mall in the city for the shopping - AllYour Needs shopping mall. The mall was a colossal maze of glass and steel towering over the city skyline like a modern-day castle. It was a bustling hub of activity. You can hardly pass by in some sections without a part of your body coming in contact with another person or seeing someone you know. It drew crowds from far and near the city with multiple levels of shops, restaurants, and sections offering its own slice of endless entertainment and retail therapy. “I know you and I started on the wrong foot,” I said to Heather as we navigated the inside of the mall. I scratched the back of my neck, nervous as I continued with what I was saying. “I might have been too hard on you. I made you feel bad and unwelcomed and less of yourself, made it feel like I was in a better position than you…thought your presence in the apartme

CHAPTER 149BIANCA’S POVAs I made my way past the entrance door of the restaurant, something prompted me to stop. Maybe confronting Dylan wasn’t such a good idea. This wasn’t the right thing to do. I contemplated within me as I briefly closed my eyes, his exact words that day at the bridal shop invading my thoughts.“You want to know why I left you, huh?” He raised a brow angrily. “I was fucking fed up and tired of you. You’re too much to handle. You and your incessant complaints. Your parents and their stupid unrealistic expectations. I pity any man who ends up with you. Because no matter what, it’ll never work out. You and your crazy family will end up fucking it all up! So next time you see me anywhere, don’t look at me, don’t talk to me—just pretend I don’t exist anymore.”Those words hurt me deeply that day and made me feel like I was the reason for the failure of our relationship. It made me feel like I was a liability. A burden, not only to him. But to Richard as well as we e
