Chapter 2 Two

“You didn't sleep at home all night which makes me wonder how I did not know that you were a whore all these while” Finn said the moment I entered our room, filled with hatred. A part of me was happy that something had happened between a stranger and me which was a payback on my behalf and another part of me was sad that I cheated on my husband.

“And what business of yours is it if I do not sleep at home?” I asked him. Now, he wanted to play the role of a strict husband?

“It's none of my business after all. You aren't Vanessa. We will be having a family dinner in the next ten minutes” He said and was about to walk out of thr room when I muttered something I did not expect him to hear.

“At least, I will get to let them know how much of a cheat you are and I can finally divorce you with their support” I muttered even though I had never seen his parents before.

They did not attend my wedding because they were out of the country and in other for them to make it up to me, they had promised a family dinner.

Before I could comprehend what was happening, Finn had rushed towards me like a flash and held my neck tightly while I struggled to breathe. “Let… me … go!” I mutter while his eyes were fixed on me, not wondering if I could choke or not.

Honestly, if anyone had told me that Finn would be like this, I would never have believed such person. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut instead when I found out about them..

“One word from you to them, I will make sure that you and your family go downhill. No one will ever hear about you again!” He said in anger while I closed my eyes and nodded my head strongly. I was not ready to die after all.

He pushed me to the wall and left the room while I coughed out so loud and held my chest. On a normal day, when something like that happened, all I will do was call Vanessa.

My mom will not help matters because she will remind me of her advice. She had once advised me to find someone of highest class than us but all I wanted was Finn. In the end, they did not pressurize me and succumb to my ordeals.

In the end, the maids had brought out a very nice attire for me to wear while I showered and wore the clothes. Somehow, I wanted to see that man I got intimate with last night.

Few minutes later, I was all set up for the dinner and came out of the room with Finn holding my hand, looking all lovey-dovey as my father-in-law and mother-in-law came inside. “Hello darling,” My mother-in-law, Teresa said and smiled as she gave me a hug.

“She's beautiful” My father-in-law complimented.

“Thank you for choosing Finn. He will not stop talking about you on phone, telling us how lucky he is to have you” Teresa said while I laughed.

If only they know how much of a liar he is! I thought.

“Why's your brother not coming in? The loads do not seem too much, do they?”

“Mom, what loads?”

“Oh please, I brought a lot of gifts for my daughter-in-law. I couldn't attend her wedding and I decided to make it up to her” She said.

“You shouldn't have let my brother do that. You know how lousy he can be” Finn said. Finn had a brother? He didn't tell me that.

That was when I realized that I did not know so much about him.

“Should I check up on him? The gifts may probably be too much” I said and was about to walk out of the door when his brother came in and I froze in shock.

The same man I wanted to check up on was the same man I got intimate with!

He stared at me, trying to figure out where he had seen me and his eyes twitched. I knew he also recognized me that instant!

To think that Finn had also said that his brother was a lousy man made my heart beat. I began to think of the blame and shame I will face all because of what I had done.

Maybe I should not have walked away from that party yesterday. Maybe I should have endured the pain.

“Do you guys know each other?” Finn asked and looked at me suspiciously.

One thing about Finn was that whenever he had a suspicious look on, he would try to get to the root of the matter!

“Oh no! Your wife is dashing!” He said and laughed awkwardly and dropped a big box at a nearby corner of the living room while I trembled, wondering what to do.

This seemed more complex than I thought.

“Edwards, stop that. That's why you should also get married soon and stop complimenting women” Teresa said while he nodded and smiled but glanced at me.

After a while, we all settled down on the dinning while I seemed distant. Edwards sat across me while I had my face buried in my food, not daring to look at him.

“I have something to say” Edwards said while my heart skipped my I threw my fork on the table helplessly with eyes widened.

He was lousy as his brother had said, what if he wanted to talk about what happened between us last night?

Then the headlines could go like this; Finn Gold, billionaire genius of XX city divorced his wife over infidelity after brother confesses to get intimate with her.

My heart thumped the more when he stared at me and I shook my head.

“What's it you want to say?” Finn asked, staring at me. Now, I was sure that it was evident he was more suspicious of me because of my actions.

“I like the meal and will like to get more” He said.

I knew Edwards was trying to play games with me but I felt relived as I sighed, happy that he had not said anything yet.

“Is that it? Can you let us eat out meals in peace?” My husband said.

Finally, we were done eating while Finn's phone rang. He went ahead to pick up the call while Teresa and her husband went ahead to check if the gifts were complete, saying that Edwards could be sometimes careless.

Then, I was left with Edwards.

“Funny how you are my younger brother's wife. That doesn't mean anything. I will like to have another taste of you again” He said while I scuffed.

Before he came, I wanted to meet the stranger who made me happy last night and now that I met him again, I felt irritated.

For some time, I wondered if this was also a surprise from Vanessa because if she knew about it, my life will never remain the same again.
