Chapter 15
Derrick’s P.O.V
“I just don’t like you meeting that wicked woman so often,” Kendall pouted after we left Sarah’s office. She walked on, stomping her feet.
“But she’s Gillian’s mom, Kendall. We’ll see each other often because of our daughter,” I explained, walking beside her
“Yeah, right. You just want to get back together because Sarah’s rich now, don’t you?” Kendall half–yelled, drawing the attention of people around us.
“Hey, lower your voice. Remember, we’re in the office!” I hissed, glaring sharply at her.
It was strange how I ended up falling for Kendall. She was pretty average- looking, but she knew how to dress sexily and put on makeup, which tempted me as a man.
In comparison, Sarah was way more beautiful. Her body was slim and smooth, even after giving birth. She still had the body of a young adult.
But Sarah didn’t know how to dress up. She always looked plain to me, especially at home. She never tried to seduce me like Kendall did. She always. complained about being tired, even though she was just at home, unlike Kendall who was a career woman.
Now everything was different. Sarah looks stunning and classy. If only I had been more patient and not divorced her so quickly. Maybe she would have promoted me by now.
I was filled with so much regret. Yet I was sure that Sarah would take me back. She was always crazy about me, despite my lies. She loved me no matter what. Sarah was submissive and never got angry. She was so easy to deceive.
I smiled to myself at the thought.
As we passed the restroom, I saw Lorraine cleaning the sink. Sarah should. have given her a better position. After all, she was Sarah’s sister–in–law. Well, soon–to–be former sister–in–law.
Sarah should will respect Lorraine. I felt bad seeing my sister working like that
“Derrick, come here
“What’s up?”
“Talk to Sarah about giving me a better position. I graduated from vocational school, you know. You’re only a high school grad, yet you’re a manager,” Lorraine pleaded with me.
“Don’t worry, Sis. Once Sarah takes me back, I’ll become one of the directors here, and I’ll make you a secretary or branch manager,” I responded confidently.
“Really, Derrick? I want to be a boss like you, with subordinates and all ”
Lorraine smiled, probably imagining her future as a boss.
“Hey, let’s go for lunch!” As usual, Kendall came to my desk at lunchtime.
That spoiled woman always acted exaggeratedly, drawing everyone’s attention. Without much delay, we headed to the cafeteria. Normally, we’d go to fancy restaurants for lunch, then maybe stop by a mall or hotel afterward.
Uncle Benny never minded before. I could return to the office whenever i wanted, or not at all.
But now, I had received a warning letter from Sarah.
Whatever, she was probably just jealous of Kendall. That was the risk of having a handsome husband like me. She had to deal with her jealousy.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
I sat near the cafeteria door facing the parking lot. From a distance, I saw Sarah walking with a man.
How dare that guy get close to Sarah. Too bad Albert was the boss here, Otherwise, I would have taken care of him that night.
Just wait, Albert. Once Sarah and I are back together, I’ll fire you.”
Suddenly, Sarah looked my way angrily. Just as I thought, she was jealous whenever she saw me with Kendall.
But her calm face fuckest even more hunguful when she was angry I sauldn’t was to get back together with her Barat Barah wait for me, sweetheart?
What do you want to order?
Kendall glared at me when I accidentally called her by the wrong name
see, you were thunking about that wicked woman, weren’t you?” Kendall pouted
“No, sweetheart just saw Sarah over the and her name slipped out” | explained, pointing to the parking lot
“Yeah, right?” Kendall got more irritated
Oh no, if Kendall got mad, she might not want to spend the night with me
For now, I would use Kendall to fill the void until I got backs with Sarah
“Derrick, I still can’t believe Sarah to the loan at your workplace,” Mom said, still in disbelief after I told her about the Botel avent
“Turns out I’ve been working for my in–laws all along, Mom,” I muttered.
“Then Sarah is so out of line. You should have been the director all along, not Benny Humprey,” Mom looked upset.
“Don’t worry, Mom. Soon, I’ll get back together with Sarah I’m sure she’ll take me back. She is crazy about me, Mom,” said proudly, patting my chest
“What about Kendall? You’ve taken her virginity. I feel guilty toward Sonin,” Mom looked sad.
I sighed. How could I tell Mom that Kendall wasn’t a virgin when I had slept with her? She was very experienced in bed
“Relax, Mom. I’ll take responsibility for Kendall. Maybe Sarah in just emotional But I’m sure she’ll accept me and let Kerall live with us permanently, doht?” right?
I smiled to myself
How wonderful it would be to have a wife and mistress at the same time.
“Mom! Waaaaa!!!”
Suddenly, Lorraine burst into the room, throwing herself into Mom’s arms, sobbing.
“What’s going on, Lorraine? Why are you crying?” Mom asked.
“Mom… I… I…”
“What happened?” Mom asked, confused,
“Jack! Jack is cheating on me!” Mom was shocked by Lorraine’s words.
“What?” I glared, anger boiling up. That guy was such a jerk. He was both poor and a cheater? How pathetic.
I was furious.
“Mom… The money for the business from the mortgage… Jack took it all!” my sister cried.
“What?!” Mom and I shouted in unison.
