Chapter 28
“What’s going on?” Elizabeth gasped as she entered inside the room staring at Edde who lay on the bed sleeping peacefully and snoring loudly “I thought he said he was gonna go to work today? Is he that tired?” She mumbled as she kept her bag on the couch walking towards the bed he lay.
She sneered at herself “I tiptoed all this way expecting to see something crazy but I rather saw him sleeping” she said shaking her head at her clumsiness as her eyes glued to his face, he looked so handsome and less dangerous sleeping.
“You should sleep often” Elizabeth mumbled in between her breath as she stood from the bed stretching her body tiredly headed to the bathroom “Why didn’t she come? Or was I just overthinking?… No! I wasn’t, the text was clear! Edde is having an affair with Miss Anonymous and I will catch them” Elizabeth thought as she pulled off her dress and walked under the shower turning it on and letting the water wash her freely.
Edde woke up letting out a loud yawn and rubbed his eyes clearing his smudgy view, he sat up on the bed and stretched his body as his eyes caught with the covered plate on the table with a jar of home made juice by the side, seeing that made him surprised as he wasn’t used to having home made food.
The mouth watering aroma of the food hit his nose as he hurried towards the food and placed them on the bed, he opened the plate to see richly prepared Bacon and eggs “Wow! When was the last time I had these!?” He muttered euphorically as he took a spoonful of Bacon’s into his mouth as he moaned softly to the wonderful taste “she’s good!” He commented in-between a mouthful of Bacon’s and eggs as the door cracked up revealing Elizabeth with a mini basket full of fruits.
“You’re finally awake” she simply said sitting down on the couch and dropped the basket of fruits on the table.
“What’s up with eating fruits and not food?” Edde asked curiously as his eyes settled on the amount of fruits she had in the basket.
“The doctor recommended the fruits to keep me and the baby healthy” Elizabeth replied as she took some berries into her mouth.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“But I’m sure the doctor didn’t tell you to take this much! Seriously it’s fucking too much Elizabeth!” Edde muttered and signed knowing fully well that Elizabeth wouldn’t listen.
“He said that I should take as much as possible, so I’m tryna be on the safe side” She blankly replied as Edde shrugged, turning back to his food.
“Do what suits you best” he said and took a sip of his juice.
“Why didn’t you go to work today?” Elizabeth asked, raising her eyes at him as he shrugged his shoulders.
“I was just too tired to go, do you have any problem with that?” He asked as Elizabeth hissed.
“Who is the lady you saved her contact with a love emoji?” Elizabeth asked ignoring his question as she raised her brows at him expecting a reply, she tried controlling herself from telling him but she couldn’t, thinking of the text and the fact that he fucks another woman hurt her so bad.
“Wh_What are you talking about Elizabeth?…” Edde asked, stuttering a little from guilt.
“Fuck it Edde, you don’t have to lie I saw the text she sent to you and I am sure you fuck her so who is she to you?” Elizabeth asked, trying hard not to break down into tears.
“She is nobody, can we peacefully have our meal and not just fight?” Edde said calmly as Elizabeth scoffed and bit her lips slightly trying hard not to yell or make trouble.
“We can’t eat peacefully unless you answer me, so who the fuck is she!… If she really is nobody then why don’t you just answer the god-damn question!” Elizabeth yelled angrily making Edde flinch slightly at the level of her anger he had never seen her in such a mood before so it struck him.
“Okay… Okay, just calm down Elizabeth… She’s nothing to me again, she’s my ex!” Edde replied as Elizabeth bit her tongue angrily as she lowered her gaze at him.
“You still fuck your Ex? Are you that addicted!?” Elizabeth said in an unstable voice as tears streamed down her cheeks.
“Look Elizabeth, Sadie is just…” He tried saying as his phone’s vibration and ringtone caught his attention, he looked into the phone screen and it was Sadie calling.
“She’s calling right?” Elizabeth asked coldly as he nodded.
“I promise, nothing is going on between us” Edde said as he swiped to the answer icon and cleared his throat guiltily.
“Let it speak out…” She said as Edde tapped on the speaker.
“Hey De De, I am downstairs, please come quickly. I am uncomfortable with this giant guards of yours!” Sadie said in-between a gnitched teeth “Hope your wife isn’t home?” She asked in a sweet tone as Edde ended the call quickly.
“She even gave you a pet name… Nice one, let’s go see her” Elizabeth said coldly as she stood from the couch, Edde had numerous thoughts going through his mind… Sadie isn’t a softy or someone to take shit and Elizabeth is fucking angry, he was scared of the both women fighting over him.
“Elizabeth, please I’m begging you, do not fight her… Just ignore whatever she says to you and not to worry I will make sure she doesn’t stay long” Edde said pleadingly, his humbleness was obvious but Elizabeth rolled her eyes at him and left the room.
Climbing down the Stairs quietly Elizabeth sighted the white lady sitting on the one sitter couch with her eyes focused on her very expensive Iphone, she had a pink colored hair and her acrylic nails were fucking lengthy!. “She looks like a bitch indeed” Elizabeth thought as she stepped down from the stairs with Edde behind her.
“Hey Ed… Oh hi, Edde’s new slu… Wife nice meeting you” she said in a smile as she stood up and made towards Elizabeth with her hand stretched for a shake which Elizabeth took and let out a slight smile.
Elizabeth focused on her face as she looked really familiar. “Are you Sadie Hat-field from B & W? I mean the cover girl of the agency?” Elizebeth asked curiously as Sadie nodded proudly strutting back to the couch.
“Yes I am, I really have achieved a lot in life” Sadie replied as Elizabeth and Edde sat together on the couch facing her.
Elizabeth cleared her throat and sat up not wanting to be carried away by the euphoria of meeting a well known supermodel “So what is a super model like you doing in our abode?” Elizabeth asked in a curved brow as Sadie chuckled softly crossing her legs together.
“Well, I came to see Edde, do you have any problem with me seeing him?” She asked as Elizabeth bit her lips trying to control her anger.
“What business do you have with my husband?” Elizabeth asked harshly as Edde stood up from the chair he sat.
“Elizabeth, come to the room with me, now!” Edde yelled, obviously pissed off as Elizabeth gave Sadie one last glare and followed Edde to the room.
Slamming the door shut Edde turned angrily to Elizabeth “What’s the interview all about Elizabeth Albie! I tried my best to be humble and explain myself to you but you refused to listen to me and you have the guts to question my guest like you’re my mom or something! How dare you!?” Edde yelled as Elizabeth flinched speechlessly as she moved away from Edde “Look, that lady you saw downstairs is my fucking Ex lover and we ain’t exactly enemies which gives her the fucking right to see me… You are just a mere Baby mama so stay in your lane and mind your Goddamn business!” Edde yelled as he matched angrily out of the room.
Elizabeth stood staring at his retreating back in shock, she never expected him to say that much to her. He literally belittled her to her face and equally chose his Ex girlfriend to her.
Elizabeth fell on the bed as tears streamed down her ear uncontrollably making her eyes hot, she hated herself for forgetting her place in Edde’s life “I’m indeed a mere Baby mama, my relationship with him is fake and I really should learn to accept whatever life he lives, he has always been a fuckboy and I can’t be the one to change him” Elizabeth thought as she sniffled in tears, remembering that Edde told her to her face that he doesn’t love her hurts the most.
“I can’t let him know that his stupid words affected me, I can’t let him see me crying” Elizabeth mumbled as she made her way to the bathroom.
Edde hurriedly trailed down the stairs to the sitting room as he stood glaring scornfully at Sadie “Sadie use the door now before…”
“Shut the fuck up De De, I already know I should go… I can’t believe that you’re not only abusive to me but also your wife, I pity her because she’s just too beautiful for you, you don’t deserve her in your toxic life!” Sadie said, rolling her eyes at Edde as she grabbed her bag “Call me when you need me” she winked at him and walked out of the mansion.
“Darn it!”
