Tessa povMy hands trembled while holding the divorce papers, still sitting on the same bed where Elvis has made love to me just now with detachment that screamed how much i disgust him“wha.. what is this for Elvis “ I asked so scared to convince myself that it is what i am seeing “the last time i checked, you can read” he said seemingly undisturbed about whatever i am feeling while bulking up his belt“she is back” I knew it all along, the woman he has been waiting for, let's say this is karma coming back at me for satisfying my selfish desire.As much as I still want him back, I have to accept the reality that he wants someone else.“she is back” i heard him say “Elvis is it just about her all this while, what about me” i asked him with disbelief all over my face“don't try to act emotional with me, sign that you are leaving tonight” he replied nonchalantly, obviously not caring about whatever I am about to say.“she married another man, without thinking twice and you still thin

TESSA’S POVi slowly opened my eyes, my eyes came in contact with the white ceilingbeep beep beep the smell of antiseptic filled the airthat's when it drowned me that i am in the hospital "oohhh, you are awake, welcome back. my name is Dr Lan, hope you are feeling alright?".“yes doctor” i replied i don't know if my voice is barely audible but I am sure she saw my lips move.“you fainted due to stress, which is quite normal for a woman who is pregnant”. she said writing down something on the paper. huh, wait, did i just hear her say pregnant?.“uhmm, sorry you look like you have no idea she said noticing the look of surprise on my face.“yes doctor, how is my child, I hope i don't have anything to worry about”.Truly i wasn't very surprised, because after the servant mentioned it, i was scared but i still hoped.“yeah sure, reduce stress, eat a lot of foods and fruits with vitamin, like i said avoid too many stressful activities.you can be discharged now” “okay, thank you docto

Tessa's POV “no…no..no, this can't be real” I blinked rapidly, wondering if I was seeing things. But no, he was still there, sitting right there with a smirk on his face. I felt like the ground should open and swallow me. My eyes scanned the room frantically, searching for somewhere far from him to sit. but i guess luck wasn't on my side today, every seat was taken, except for one – directly facing Elvis. I hesitated, before walking towards the seat and sitting. I felt like I was daydreaming, with Elvis's piercing gaze watching my every move. As I sat down, I tried to compose myself, reminding myself that I had a purpose for being here. I would finish what I came for and leave peacefully, without making a scene. But it was hard to focus with Elvis sitting across from me, not intending to divert his gaze. I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. I told myself. I would finish my task and leave, without letting Elvis's presence get the better of me. But as I glance

Elvis POV As she sat beside me, I couldn't help but give her a glance. She looked more beautiful than I can remember, in good shape and fairer, the emotions swirling inside me are unexplainable. I promised Harriet that I will marry her, but I can't seem to move on from her. Despite all my efforts, I couldn't shake off the feeling that I still want her. i missed her, her innocent looks, her gentleness. blocking her car from moving, manipulating her into my own vehicle, it all seemed so irrational. There's no tangible reason for doing that, except for the fact that I don't want her out of my sight again after so many years. I can't bear the thought of it. so i had to come up with the business deal she came back for, hopefully that will stall her.Then I noticed her gaze on my hands, specifically my ring finger. I followed her gaze, curious about what she was looking at, then it drew on me that she was looking for a ring. i watched as her eyes stayed on my finger, with a look of cur

Tessa POV "stay with me for 2 weeks, and i will offer you the deal you are here for, then you can leave freely or i will lock you here and you will never leave”. the words kept echoing on my head unstop.‘ what have i gotten myself into’‘God no’ i stood there frozen‘so I'm trapped’‘this wasn't the plan’he is clearly threatening me, leave freely or be trapped forever.What does he really want? What happened to Harriet?, isn't she with him again?.As I approached the door, attempting to step out, I noticed the door was locked from outside.‘it's definitely over’“Elvis let me outttttt!!!!”. I screamed but received no response.‘oh God, taught he has moved on, he broke up with me himself for crying out loud’ I continuously banged on the door but received no response.I slumped against the door, tears streaming down my face, fear gripped me, the thought of my daughter fuels my vulnerability even more. What will happen if he finds out about her?.stay with him for 2 weeks?what fo
