Chapter 49
“I’d like to see you again,” he said as I rolled my eyes at this. I was only hanging out with him to have my revenge, after that I would leave him broken and worse than when I had gotten into his life.
“Sure,” I smiled before taking my hand away, hurrying to the door. “Text me.”
I entered my car and drove away heading home.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
I made sure to look in my rear view mirror to make sure I wasn’t being tailed by anyone. He was the president and this made things harder for me. If he wanted he could easily have spies find my location but I did not want that to happen.
I got to the house, entering my apartment to see the children already back from school playing with their toys.
“Hey mum,” Landon said to me. “Welcome. Where have you been?”
“Sorry baby,” I said, kissing the three of them. “I was out with a friend.”
I couldn’t tell them that I was with their father. That would raise so many questions that I was not ready to answer yet. The excuse I gave was a better one.
When I had showered and changed into a more comfortable outfit, I settled down to engage with them. We played games and while we did that I could see the resemblance they had with him.
The way he had treated me today got into my head as I sighed at how he has changed.
“Is something wrong mummy?” Landon asked as I shook my head.
“No baby, I’m fine.”
They already knew about my feelings and how sad I was but I would not let them know that I was sad.
“Are you sure?” he asked again, coming closer with the other two staring at me with fear in their eyes.
“Hey.” I laughed. “You all are behaving like captain duck. I am fine. Trust me.”
I gave them a cheerful face but they were not buying it as they tried to cheer me up with the way they hugged me.
I finished with them, taking them to their room as they had an early night. I watched them sleep before heading to my room to see that my phone had been ringing.
I laid in bed to see that it was from Travis.
“Hey,” I smiled as the man’s voice came over the speaker.
“I’m missing you,” I said. “Where are you?”
“Can I confess something to you?”
“What is it?”
“I’ve been at the meeting with these old geezers and can I say that all I have been thinking about is you.”
I smiled after hearing this. Travis’s voice was like music to my ears, cooling me whenever I was having a rough day.
“I was thinking about you today too,” I chuckled. “You’re still at work?”
“Yeah. Executive meeting and all of that stuff. I’m sorry but I’ll be home late.”
“It’s fine.”
“I love you,” he said.
“I love you too.”
I heard the beep from the phone which notified me that the call had been cut.
I laid back in bed, staring at the ceiling as I remembered the outing I had had with my ex husband. My mood changed immediately as I noticed that he had not been so bad during lunch.
My phone rang as I picked it up to see the caller was Asher.
“Hey,” he said with a flirty tone. “How are you? I’m surprised you picked it up.”
“I can drop it you know,” I said as he chuckled.
“I missed you earlier,” his flirty tone came again as I decided to match it.
“I couldn’t care less, but I did like spending time with you.”
“Your voice is sexy.”
“Aren’t married?” I asked trying to get him to focus on his marriage and let me be. If I had known getting him would be this easy I would not have gone ahead to make all those plans I made.
“Let’s not till about her. This time it’s all about you,” he said as I noticed he was having problem in his marriage just like how he had had with me.
It made me wonder if he had actually done the same thing to me when we were still together.
“So I’ll be busy tomorrow and I wish I wouldn’t be, I want to eat out with you again,” he said.
“Oh, what’s going on tomorrow?”
“Some campaign for a governor. I was invited so I can’t have dinner with you then. But I’m free two nights from now so we can meet up then.”
“Sure,” I sighed.
“Wait, did you just accept without trying to beat me up?” he said with a hint of sarcasm I didn’t know he had.
“Yea I did and you should not make me take back my words. Do not be late.”
“You know I am never late. I am the president.”
“Of course you are,” I smiled. My revenge plan was going according to how I wanted it to go.
He was falling in love with me just the way I liked it. By the time I would be done with him, he would be begging for me to let him down slowly.
“I’ve got work tomorrow,” I yawned. “Later.”
I dropped the call before he could say anything.
At that moment I felt guilty for flirting with Asher even though it was for a revenge plan.
The door opened up as I knew it was Travis.
I ran out to see him getting rid of his tie. He looked hot and sexy in his suit that I could not stop myself from running to him and jumping on his body.
He held me up and kissed me before taking me to the room.
He was shocked at what I had done as I stripped while locking my door.
“I want you this strip and give it to me rough,” I said to the man as he did exactly as I wanted.
“What got into you?” he asked.
“I felt like it,” was my answer before falling asleep in his arm.
