110. They had fallen asleep together after a lot of sexercise and it had been long since Macy was that tired.She didn't even notice Richard finish because he went at it like a starved stallion and she had decided to indulge him and after he was done, she felt a cold sensation as he cleaned her body with a wet towel.She had then felt him get into bed next to her and raise her head and she had been lying on his chest.They were startled by the ringing of his phone and Macy sat upright disoriented for a while.What? Where? Oh, hey, your phone is ringing,she said as she laid back again.Macy had been used to such situations when she was still working for Lion and when she was still in China.She was a spy and a soldier in their underground army and she could thus get calls any time of the day or night calling her for a mission.Old habits die hard so they say.Richard groaned and picked the phone as he pulled her with his free hand and made her lie on his chest."Hello?"He looked at the
111. Macy woke up naturally much later in the day. She smelled the room even without opening her eyes and smiled as she stretched herself. “Smells like an expensive room," she said and then remembered where she was.She then opened her eyes and looked around but thankfully, she was all alone.At the bedside table, there was a stick on note:In the office just right outside the door. Call or come if you need anything.There are clothes in the bathroom and good is waiting for you.XoXoXoYour husband.Macy smiled and read and re-read the note. She then hugged it in her hand wondering how she could be this lucky.“Maybe all my differing were preparing me for this," She thought and then yawned.Her brain wanted her to go back to sleep but she knew better than.She took her phone that was at the table and checked the time. It was twenty three minutes past eleven and she gawked at the phone wondering if it was working fine.She could never remember the last day she slept in for so long.
112. “Where are we going?" Macy asked as she sat on the gunshot seat of Richard's convertible.After ehe brunch, she had refused to go out but Richard had promised her that it was okay.He was with her and all was going to be well.“What about your workers? I…” Macy had expressed her doubts and insecurity but Richard was there and didn't even let him finish.“Macy?" He had called her and she looked at him, “do you trust me?" He asked her.“Yes, of course I do," she said and he smiled at her.“Then let's go," he had said simply and she had let him lead her.When they were at the door, he looked back at her, took her hand, smiled and opened the door.Once they were outside, Macy felt like running back to the office but that hold Richard had on her hand made her feel secure and she concentrated on that and followed him.Macy didn't look at anyone but if she had, she would have seen the amazement in the eyes of the two secretaries that were in the executive floor.The guards, as usual, ke
The sun was scorching hot as summer was finally here. The streets of LA however were filled with cars hooting and overtaking each other, passengers walking on the pathways as everyone busied themselves with their businesses. Richard navigated his bike before branching and driving his old delivery bike to promise dishes where he worked as a delivery guy and a waiter.He had just parked his bike and retrieved his delivery box when the voice of his boss called from inside." What are you doing standing there? Hurry up and help me." The lady bellowed, sending him a glare his way before strolling Inside the small eatery.Although Mrs Clark, his boss, has always been overly harsh on him, she was the only person willing to hire him even with his disability.Limping his way to the cafe, he started taking orders from the already impatient customers and did his best to attend to their needs.Although the eatery was not always Parked, it was different at this time of the day considering that it
The attention of most of the customers was now on Richard after they heard the woman's claims.Turning around, Richard cursed inwardly. Of all places, why would he run into Selina Williams here? She is his wife's best friend and gas always sought ways to embarrass Richard infront of his wife. She never fails to remind Cassy of what a huge mistake she made by marrying a loser like him.Richard has always stomached all insults in the fear of confronting her and getting into a beef with Cassy who seemed more protective of her friends than him.Actually, Selena's words could not be considered wrong. Compared to the Prestigious Parker family, he was nothing but a pauper. He was a disabled man and on top of that he was poor with no family whatsoever so he definitely knew more than anyone that he didn't deserve her. He met Cassy and the two of them fell in love. Although others warned Cassy about marrying him, she still went ahead with their marriage and lived happily together. That's until
The moment those words left Richard's mouth, he regretted it almost immediately. He didn't want to bring up the matter about William Carter to Cassy but after she served him the divorce papers, he could not think straight anymore. Actually, Richard had spotted his wife accompanying William Carter to dine in fancy hotels. He never brought that matter up because he didn't want to suspect his wife for cheating on him.He thought if he ignored everything and behaved like he was oblivious to everything, Cassy would eventually go home to him and their daughter.His wife's family didn't fail to rub in his face the fact that Cassy deserved someone better like William Carter. He was a second generation heir to the Carter family.The Carter family could be considered a second tier family in Los Angeles while the Parker family was a third tier family.Richard was aware of the fact that William Carter was interested in his wife and was blatantly pursuing her.Seeing the divorce papers, he finally
The following morning, Richard prepared his daughter for school. Melvin said nothing apart from a good morning to his father. She was dull, paired with her pale skin from the fever last night. Looking at his daughter, a pang of pain and guilt hit him. He should never have let Cassy into the house last night. If she didn't step foot in the house, his daughter would not be heartbroken by the words her mother said about her.After dropping Melvin to school, Richard headed to the eatery where he worked.He helped Mrs Clark with cleaning and preparing the dishes and delivered a few take aways ordered by clients.It was about noon when his cellphone rang indicating that he had an incoming call. He ignored it at first thinking that it was Cassy calling. He didn't have the strength to argue with her nor had he thought about signing the divorce papers.The phone rang again, almost immediately. Groaning, he wiped his hands clean with his working apron before slipping his hands to his pants poc
Richard smiled faintly. At the end, she could not wait to kick him and his daughter away from her life.He didn't need to think about what his answer would be. He would choose his daughter in a heartbeat.He finally realised that there was no longer Cassy and him anymore and that only his daughter could stick to him no matter what. She was his priority." Alright, I'll sign the divorce papers. Make sure to wire the money to the hospital immediately." Richard said, turned around, climbed his bike and went home.The divorce papers will be delivered to him the following day and he will sign it as long as his daughter can get the treatment she needs. He no longer saw the need to fight for an already wrecked ship. Since she wanted them out of her life, he will take his daughter away after she is treated.Richard arrived at his neighbourhood and parked his bike then made his way to his house.When he touched the lock of his house, he felt something was amiss. He was immediately on alert as
