LOGINHey everyone! I want to apologize for the slow updates, honestly I know how annoying it makes me feels to get delayed update from an author so I'm reallllllly sorry! Stay tuned and relax from today because Romeo and Cara's love story, is back!
20. Sudden Fatigue Romeo walked up to his wife and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Good morning my love. Mom came over early to help make breakfast and Vicky decided to tag along. She felt guilty about yesterday and wanted to make things right."Cara eyed Vicky visibly but forced a smile to her face. She was trying but she really couldn't pretend not to hate Vicky. "You look tired and hungry." Tori said to Cara. "I guess I made the right choice after all." Cara had to force a smile on her face. She really hated how she had to be wearing fake smiles in her own matrimonial home. Romeo could read his wife like an open book. He knew she was far from comfortable with having Vicky around and he definitely could not blame her. In fact, he had only himself to blame. He knew the smile on her face was fake and it hurt him to see it. Reaching out, he took his wife's hand and spoke softly. "Babe, come out with me for a second while mom dishes our meal."Cara nodded and followed her husb
"Okay!" Tori clapped her hands together. "Why don't we move past that since it has already been decided? Cara, let's open more gifts. Here, check mine." She handed Cara the present she had prepared for her, wearing a bright smile on her face while trying to brighten up the mood. Cara smiled and accepted the gift. "Thank you so much Tori, I really appreciate this." Tori smiled and nodded. The tension in the room slowly melted away and the mood had lightened completely. The baby shower finally ended at night and it was time to say goodbye to everyone. Cara hugged everyone, saying goodbye and fervently thanking everyone that came to the event. "Well, I can boldly say that that was a success." Abigail said. Cara chuckled softly. "It definitely was. All thanks to you. All of you." Abigail pulled her friend into a warm and tight hug. Patting her back softly, she pulled away and kissed her cheek. "Have a great night, and don't let a particular someone stress you." She muttered the la
“Darling!” Tori exclaimed excitedly as she walked over toward Vicky to meet her by the door. “I was starting to wonder if you wouldn’t make it.”Vicky smiled and hugged her. “I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”Cara tried, she really tried, but she couldn’t fake a smile no matter how hard she tried to.“Hello, Cara,” Vicky said, perfectly faking a smile. It almost seemed so sincere. “It is so nice to see you again after so long. Congratulations on your baby shower. I guess I’ve missed all the main events, including the gender reveal. But that’s fine, I know that much.”She reached forward and took Cara’s hand. “Here,” she put a wrapped square-shaped present in her hand. “Open my present first.”Cara finally managed to force a smile, hiding the irritated look on her face. “Thank you for coming. I’ll open your present after. Unfortunately, someone already asked me to open their present first.”She shoved the present back into Vicky’s hand, her fake smile remaining on her face.She held u
The next few days went by in a blur, Cara had been expecting a message, a call, something, anything from Vicky. But there was nothing. Romeo didn't say anything about her either. They were like the perfect couple they were before Vicky came around. When she wasn't worried about someone trying to steal her husband. "Could I have scared her with my words?" Cara asked. "Huh?" Abigail questioned. Cara turned to look at her best friend. "I mean Vicky, isn't it odd that she just disappeared? It's been over a week now." Abigail gave a roll of her eyes. "Cara, you were worried about her ruining things earlier and now you're worried that she's not trying to ruin things?" Cara sighed. "No, it's not like that. I just mean it's... Weird. This silence, it doesn't seem like her." "You don't know her, honey. Just enjoy the silence while it lasts, if you claim it's weird then she's sure to turn up soon enough. You should enjoy the peace for now." Abigail suggested. "Careful with that." She po
Cara couldn't believe how Vicky could be so openly greedy. Saying such things in front of his wife!Her phone started ringing just then and it turned out to be Romeo. She smiled. Raising her phone, she answered the call and put it on loud speaker. "Hey baby."Vicky stared at her with so much anger in her eyes. "Babe," Romeo's voice sounded from the other side of the phone. "I thought you said you were at home? I'm home now and I can't find you. Are you okay? Did something happen to you?" There was so much worry in his voice. Vicky's ears pricked as she heard Romeo's voice from the other end of the phone. She felt tears well up in her eyes as she glared at Cara. Cara's smile widened as she stared at Vicky. "I'm fine babe, I got a text from... Someone who wanted to meet and talk over coffee. I'm on my way home as we speak." "Coffee? Please don't take caffeine. Also, did you drive? Should I come over and get you? Where's the place?" "I'm fine love. I'm on my way."He sighed. "Okay
Cara sat opposite Vicky, staring at the strange woman. She had been surprised when she received a text from her asking them to meet over coffee. She was curious as to why the woman had asked them to meet up out of the blue. She flashed a smile as Vicky looked up at her and chuckled. She had been intently focused on sipping her latte. "Oh, so sorry for making you watch me drink my coffee." Vicky apologized with a soft laugh. "I just need a lot in my system right now." "Oh it's alright." Cara admitted with a chuckle. "Please," she pointed at the latte. "Drink as much as you need." Vicky smiled. "Aren't you considerate? I think I'm good. I hope I didn't call you out from work while you were doing something important?""Oh no," Cara waved her hand. "I was actually at home. I suddenly felt tired so I left work as soon as I got there." She admitted with a soft chuckle. Vicky shared her laugh. "Trust me, I've been there. I know what it's like. How far gone are you?" "Oh, almost seven
Cara did not know what to say in response. What would Mr Armani say about the hold story she had told him? Would he not want to know the issue his wife had caused that she was talking about?But she was surprised when she heard the words mr Armani said to her. "Whatever issue you are having at the
"I was actually thinking that maybe if we take the product directly to the people, you know hire a salesman, host some sales promotion and make sure the product is being advertised in every single media place possible then we will make our name known that way. After that, we will then take it to th
Romeo took Cara home later in the evening, she had been silent all through the ride and it was to his notice. As they arrived in the living room, he was supposed to turn back and leave, after all, Giovanni was still waiting for him. They had some catching up to do. But instead, he sat her down an
She let her gaze fall from his as she walked over towards him. Taking her seat next to him, she looked up again only to meet his emerald eyes still piercing through her body and soul. She felt a sensation ignite inside of her. Oh how much she had missed her man! Romeo finally took his eyes off of
