Elena“Ronan, what is happening there?” Uncle Simpson probed, his face ashen with shock. He was speechless at the scene on our screen, just like I was. Haven't I cried enough? Haven't I complained enough? Haven't I loved my husband enough? What was it about Darcy that I could never surpass? “Ronan Simpson, I am talking to you!” Uncle growled in a suppressed voice, gritting his teeth. I could see he was doing everything possible to control his anger. He took a deep breath to calm himself down. “Dad, it's nothing. No need to get yourself worked up. It’s not what you think.” Ronan spoke in a terrifyingly calm tone. I felt like a block of wood that Ronan had absolutely no regard for. “Are you listening to yourself? Ronan, do you think having women swoon over you is what makes you a man?” Uncle still suppressed his anger a bit, but when Ronan didn’t respond, he became more forceful. “I've been with your mother for more than thirty years, Ronan. In all those years, I have never looked

Elena“Dad, do you know I was so scared back there? Why would you do that to us?” I was standing in front of my father-in-law, my arms crossed in front of my chest. I could tell something was amidst, but it took me a white to understand what it really was. “What? Sweetheart, desperate times require desperate measures.” How could he say such words so easily? Ronan thought I was a manipulative person who always cooked up stories to win his father over. How would he feel if he found out that the stunt Uncle pulled in there was all fake? “Calm down, Elena. You are my daughter, and I would do anything to protect you.” I could feel the sincerity in Uncle’s words, but my mind was already wandering everywhere. This wasn’t supposed to be what marriage looked like. It was supposed to be a union of two loving people who would do anything for each other-like Uncle and Auntie. “I don’t want to be desperate, Uncle. I thought of a happy home with Ronan. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with

RonanIt was in the spur of the moment that I promised Dad that I would not divorce Elena. Now that we were alone, I didn’t know what to say or feel anymore. I couldn’t think of anything to start a conversation because I felt I had to explain my kiss with Darcy.However, Elena didn’t ask me anything about it. I guess she felt it meant nothing since she also cheated on me with that David guy. The difference between us here was that I didn’t cheat on her as she thought. I hurried into the shower as soon as we reached the bedroom, but nothing prepared me for the sight I met when I emerged from the bathroom. Elena removed her clothes and was only left in her underwear. I met her throwing her clothes into the laundry basket just now. I expected her to avert her gaze and try to cover herself like she always did, but there was no movement. She just stood there like the temptress that she was, making me question everything I ever believed. It has been a long time since I saw my wife like th

RonanI hesitated to respond to Darcy that I loved her, but she understood my circumstances. She didn't question me a single bit but offered to speak with me the next day when I was free. Darcy didn't throw a tantrum, and she didn't make a fuss. I loved that about her, and I wished with everything within me that I could marry her and have her in my arms every day. I wanted the whole world to know she was my woman, but because of Elena, I couldn't do it. I had to put my life on hold, or better still, put it aside and be with Elena. It was what made my father happy, and I wouldn't question him any more. As long as he continued to recover, I could keep up this facade for his sake. I needed to sort out a few things in my study, so I left to tackle them. The more reason I left was because I didn't intend to stay in the room when Elena got out of the shower. I wasn't ready to be tempted by her body anymore. It was about thirty minutes when I returned. I expected her to lie down and try to

Elena“Harold, I have a lot going on in my life right now. There’s no need to stress my husband over this. It’s just a fracture, right?” How could I allow Harold to involve Ronan, when he was the same person who put me in this situation? If anyone had told me Ronan could be this cruel to me, I would have denied it with my life. Now…“We need to keep you here for a while. You’d be under observation for the next few hours. Elena, if you get better, you’d go home by this evening. If not…” I had no strength in me to argue with Harold.I would protect this child with my life, even if I had to spend the next few months in the hospital-my baby must be born. Just like that, I was on admission, and the nurses came to take my vitals now and then. I slept most of the time, and when I finally woke up around 7:00 p.m, David was with me. My heart skipped a few beats when I cast my mind back to how Ronan accused me of having an affair with him. This man has been protecting me from the shadows.
