myself for bed, putting on hideous pajamas as I didn’t want him to touch me; I was sti
still in my thoughts.
I found Richard seated on the chair in front of the computer. He seemed to be in a meeting. Yes, he had so many companies abroad that it was without a doubt that he was in a meeting with one of them. Well, 1 thanked the heavens before I made quiet steps toward the bed, and slipping out of my slippers. I got in bed and gave myself work by counting sheep so I could easily fall asleep. Yes, it was a child’s trick, but it always worked with me, so I used it.
“I think you should do it. I mean, it’s not like you have anything to lose. I don’t mean to be ride, but Richard has sacrificed a lot for you and your son. If there’s a way to repay him, then I say it’s through this one” Renca said, and I sighed, then walked to the fridge and pulled out a bottle of water.
I took a glass, and after pouring into it, I told her she was right before sipping on the glass.
“It’s been four years: I am sure he has moved on
“We have a son, Renea, that’s the only thing that worries me. I never told him about Andreas, What if he asks for custody? What if he takes my son from me?”
“He won’t. I mean, as far as everyone is concerned, Andreas is Richard’s son.
“You have seen Logan, you know even Andreas himself would tell he’s the father the way they resemble each other,” I said, and when Renea nodded, I took the bottle of water and gulped it down, trying to calm my beating heart. I don’t know if this was a curse, but the way Andreas resembled Logan was out of this world; it’s like they were twins.
“I understand, but Richard will protect you, just give it a thought, Patricia, I know Richard, and he wouldn’t be asking you to do this if it weren’t important.”
“I know, but why can’t he go without us?”
“You know that man doesn’t go anywhere without his family.” She rolled her eyes, which made me nod. Richard has given up so much to try and be here for us–Andreas especially since I’ve focused on my career that instead of me being a wife, Richard had turned into the wife because if anything happens to Andreas and they call me, I would always be busy, so Richard always went
He’s even the one who attended his parents‘ meetings, who registered him to school, and who took him to the parks and had ice cream. with him because I was so focused on making money. I always had this feeling of someone showing up. I mean, after my experience with Logan, I didn’t blame myself for it, but now I was seeing it was too much.
I’ve built a fanbase, I had a successful company, and money wasn’t a problem, so stepping away for a little won’t affect me. Thinking of that made me get my phone while Renea crossed her fingers.
“Love, Is everything okay?” Richard picked up the first ring. I didn’t understand how this man always picked up my calls when he was at work
Yes, I’m calling to tell you I’ve made a decision.
“You don’t have to rush it, love, [—”
We are leaving for Florida in two days,” I cut him off, leaving no room for argument.
