Sherry’s POV****
Going to the event was a mistake that made my heart crumble. When Lyon told me his Boss was getting married, never did I imagine in my entire life that it would be Chloe whom I had tried to get rid of all these years.
I could see it in his eyes, Lyon had forgotten that I was there all through the event, his eyes were fixed on Chloe, staring at her with so much l**t which only made my heart boil in rage.
Even when I had stormed out of there, He had no idea because he had failed to notice me.
Arriving back at home, my eyes first caught hold of the glass on the table, and without a second thought, I slammed it hard on the floor.
“Arhhhh!!!” My eyes were red as I yelled at the top of my lungs, watching all the glass breaking into tiny pieces.
Like that was not enough, I picked up the flower vast and smashed it hard on the floor. As it came shattering, I thought that there was a way it would ease the anger in my heart, but no matter what I did, the rage wouldn't go away.
“How is she here, how is she back, I made sure that she was miserable and never got the chance to be back here again!”
I gritted my teeth, trying to calm down and get it working for me, I was at the edge, my heart spinning that it felt like I was going to choke on the rage.
A few years ago, I had done everything in my power to get Lyon away from her. Chloe had always bragged about his love for her and how much he cared for her.
No doubt that her words each time that I was with her were targeted to make me angry, yet I wasn't, instead I had used her words against her, going for her man and getting him for myself.
After she left that fateful day after signing the divorce documents, she left her cell phone behind, there was a message that came through which set me at the edge.
“She was pregnant! How was that possible!” Lyon had always reminded me that she was barren and there was no way she would ever be pregnant but a text from the hospital had informed her she was pregnant.
Knowing Lyon fully well, I knew that if he found out about it, he would have a second thought about going back to her, so I erased the message, but now she was back, how was I going to conceal the truth from Lyon?
Just while I was still engulfed in my thoughts, Lyon stormed in, his eyes scanning around the room at all the damaged furniture.
“What is going on here?” He asked but I rolled my eyes at him, ignoring his question and trying hard to calm down.
Lyon stride in further, and with each broken item that his gaze fell on, he clenched his fist hard.
“I asked you a question, what the hell is going on here and why are these items broken!”
“You don't have to yell at me, or can't you tell that it was a mistake”
“A mistake, have you lost your mind or don't you understand how expensive these items are, you are not good for anything, and yet you dare destroy the little furniture that I have”
“Lyon!” I called, staring at him in disbelief like he was not the same man who had looked at me with so much love and compassion all this while, and just at the glance that Chloe was back, he was starting to change.
“How can you say that to me?”
“And what would you expect me to say, you promised me that you were going to give me that which Chloe couldn't”
“Yes, but I was pregnant, whereas Chloe never got pregnant” I blurted, my gaze fixed on his expression as I tried to find out if he had any idea regarding Chloe's pregnancy, but judging from his expression, I was relieved to know that he was yet to find out and he won’t ever!.
“How can you even say that, A pregnancy you lost means nothing because you were not able to give me a child, that was all that I asked of you, and yet I come back to you breaking down my property!”
His gaze was hard on me, sending shivers down my spine, and as he drifted closer to me, I slowly spine backward, my thoughts running wild as to what he might do to me.
“You need to calm down Lyon, I know you went to speak to Chloe after the wedding was over, which is why I left knowing how much you must want to speak to her”
“What, what are you talking about?” He furrowed his brows.
“I don't know what she might have said to you, but please you need to calm down, we are going to have a child of our own soon”
“Are you pregnant?” He suddenly asked.
“No, but I will be soon. I can assure you that” I insisted, trying so much to convince him, but my words did not seem to convince him, rather he only got more furious.
Lyon rolled his eyes at and with one last glare before he stormed out of the room.
I fell on the couch as I exhaled softly, his actions right now had only gotten me more furious, and the more that I thought about it, the more scared I became of losing him.
“You wrench Chloe, I don't know what your plan might be for coming back to this town, you must think that you will be able to get my man to turn against me, but trust me when I say that that it ain't going to work”
I muttered as I gritted my teeth while staring into blank space.
“You wait and see, I am going to get rid of Lyon since he had become so wretched and get your rich husband for myself, and trust me when I say that you won't know what hit you when it does”
I spoke, and with this new plan that had swept through me, my lips curled into a devious smirk.
