Chapter 031Esther's POV My eyes snapped open, my chest heaved as I gasped for air. I was drenched in cold sweat and the blankets were wrapped around my body.“shit, fucking bitch. fuck it,” I groaned, biting my lower lips before raking my hand through my hair. It was a terrible nightmare again. It has been almost two weeks since we returned from Dubai and I often see Maya in my dreams. She kept hunting me over and over again, trying to strangle me to death. It worsened to the extent that I had to find comfort in valium to cure insomnia.I gently swung the blanket off my body before jumping off the bed. I walked to the toilet and brushed my teeth.I headed downstairs, John was already dressed for work and he was having his breakfast. “Good morning, John,” I greeted him. “Morning,” he said. I could feel his gaze fixed on me. “Another nightmare?” he asked. My dark circles ratted me out for the umpteenth time. “ahh…. Ah…”“I heard you scream,” he cut me off, before I even thought of

Chapter 033John's POV I sat impatient in my office, seconds gave way to minutes, minutes gave way to hours, but there was no call from Esther. I told her to call or text me when she was done with the office, but she didn't. I dug out my phone from my pocket, angry and frustrated, I dialed her number. It rang but there was no response. My heart skipped a beat as multiple thoughts crossed my mind. I raked my hands through my hair trying to brush it off. I dialed her number again and luckily she picked up. “Hello, aren't you done with work? You should have told me you would be late,” I asked, worried. “I'm at mom's house,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper. What! She wasn't even in the office. I gritted my teeth as a mix of anger and frustration pressed down on me. Why didn't she tell me? If she knew how worried I was at that moment she wouldn't dare to shift an inch without telling me.“What the fuck. Why didn't you tell me? I'll come and pick you up now,” I restored. I

Chapter 035 Esther's POV I slowly opened my eyes and raised my head. I felt a horrible headache which made me wince. I snapped my head and what I saw next made my heart skip a beat. John's naked body was laid beside me. I looked down and that was when I realised I was also naked. my eyes popped out as I was trying to remember what happened last night. I knew I arrived home and met John in the entrance, that was all I could register. “fuck,” I groaned. I shook my head, anyways he was my husband and there was no harm in that. I used the sheet to cover John's body before walking to the bathroom. I took a shower, the warm water washing away the pain that was behold in my body. After bathing I wore a gown and my flip-flops. Heading downstairs to prepare breakfast as it was the weekend and that was the maids' off day. I stood in the kitchen for a while wandering around trying to figure out the fastest food to cook. I needed to prepare the food before John gets down. Foo

Chapter 037John's POV Reaching the ward, Esther was already asleep; the soft click from the door made her open her eyes slowly. I walked towards her, wearing a smile on my face. “Hey, little doll,” I whispered. She stretched her hand to hold mine, demanding that I sit close to her. “Hey John, welcome back. How did it go?” she asked. “Ah… It was superb, a company was demanding collaboration with us, that's all,” I said. “Uhm… Actually, I'm still in the dark about what you said earlier, regarding your pregnancy,” I added, trying to bring back the conversation. She rolled her eyes before letting out a heavy sigh which made my heart sink. My gaze fixed on her lips impatiently waiting for her to explain. She adjusted a bit before clearing her throat. “It has been years since I divorced my husband, but the memory still remains fresh every fucking day, as if it just happened yesterday. The day I divorced my husband, I was involved in a car accident, and I was a few weeks pregnant…”

Chapter 039Esther's POV The house was quiet as I slowly woke up, the soft hum of the morning light filtering through the curtains. I noticed the other side of the bed was empty and showed no signs of John. My heart skipped to beat as different wild thoughts ran through my head.The silence of the atmosphere was interrupted by a burst of laughter. I frowned as I slipped out of bed and followed the sound. The laughter grew louder and mingled with the clinking of dishes. Pushing open the kitchen door, I met a scene that stung more than a knife to the heart. John and an unknown woman standing at the counter had their movements in perfect harmony as if they had practiced this routine a thousand times.The woman leaned closer to John, her hands pushing him as they worked together.I had no idea who that woman was, but I didn't think she was his relative. John, who always seemed so reserved, was laughing at the jokes the woman was cracking. His laughter was so rich and genuine, a sound
