Chapter 41
Chapter 41
It took a while for Katherine to come back to reality as she kept staring at the door after Oliver helped himself out of her room.
She hated the fact that her body reacted to every damn thing about him. She hated herself for not having control over her body, urges, or any form of feeling.
Sighing. She went over to her dressing table, picked up her phone with shaky hands, and saw that Michelle had already called her thrice since the call ended abruptly earlier. She dialed her best friend back.
"I have to run away with Sophie, Sammy, and Sebby." She said at a go immediately her best friend picked up the call. Remembering that she didn't lack the door and not wanting what happened earlier to repeat itself, She dashed towards the door and locked it.
"Run to where? What's going on? And why did you end the call?" "I thought I had the situation under control but it's not the same anymore.” “Calm down, babe. What the hell is going on?”
"Oliver. He literally walked in on me naked so I had to cut the call. Sadly, he's taking all of these more seriously than I had expected. He's not meant to Care or be involved in the triplets’ life but he's at it now.
"What did he say?" Michelle's voice came through.
"That he wants to see my babies. He said I'm being unfair about the whole thing and he wouldn't mind taking this to court if I continue to make the situation harder. He said the more stubborn I am, the more I try to push him away, the more it draws him closer to me."
"I told him the triplets were on a trip and won't be back until after a month or so. It's beginning to look like he might wait for them." "What the hell? Doesn't he have better things to use his time for? I thought you said he runs a very big company back in Australia.” "He does and at this point. I don't think he jokes about every word that comes from his mouth."
"You think he would actually stay in that house for a month?"
"He can. He's the boss so I'm sure he can get people to fill in for him at work. And I promise you that he doesn’t believe that they are on any fucking trip. He knows I'm hiding them. I was confident before but right now, I don't know. I don't want him to take my children away from me. I hate myself so damn much right now. You won't believe we almost fucked just now."
"Girlll!!! You can't tell me there's nothing going on between you both.”
"There's nothing. I promise you."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"With you both almost fucking every time?"
"Not my fault. My body just keeps reacting to him. I really tried to control the urge but it's just so sad to do so."
"Maybe you should just give in."
"What? Hell no!! Jeez, Michie, why will you say that?”
"Have you forgotten I have Luis?" She literally yelled, angry that her best friend who was her sister could say something like that.
"You're the one who's got the bad mind. You're the one who's overthinking. I was referring to letting Oliver meet the triplets. And all you could think of was sex and smooching.”
"I know you love Lewis so much and you care about him but I want you to be sincere. Do you feel all these things with him?” Katherine was quiet.
"I need not tell you that sex is an important aspect of a healthy relationship. I have nothing against Lewis and I'm not supporting Oliver either but don't you think it's really gross to feel this way with one man and get married to another man?"
"It's nothing, Michie.” “You call this nothing?”
"Yeah. It has to be nothing. Even if there's an attraction between Olle and I, it's gonna be in vain because there's absolutely no way I'm going to get back with him. Lewis is my future and I'll let my mind and body know that.”
"How?"
"I'm sure once Lewis and I get married and we start living together, our passion will grow more intense.”
"I have no idea why but I don't believe what you just said." Michelle voiced out.
"I'm not a relationship expert but I don't think you will be able to move on after having a taste of the forbidden." "Gosh, Mitchie, don’t call it that. We didn't have sex."
"But you almost did. How do you think Lewis will feel about it?"
"He doesn't have to know about it.”
"Nice. So you are starting off your happily ever after with lies?"
Katherine sighed. "You of all people should understand me, Instead of judging me."
"I'm not judging you, babe. I just want to make sure you're doing the right thing. It's not too late to face reality and make the right decisions.” "If Lewis isn't the right one, returning his ring will be far better than leading him on."
"And now that life has taken this turn, maybe you should consider letting Oliver meet his kids."
“You're supporting him. You're hurting me.”
"Babe, you know I'll choose you over and over again above anyone. I just feel evading the truth only makes things worse when in the end the truth will eventually prevail.”
"Ollie knows you're engaged?"
"He saw the ring.”
“Lewis will be coming for the wedding?"
"Yes."
Michelle sighed. "There’s sure gonna be some tension."
"I hope not. Ollie doesn't seem happy about him being the future dad of the triplets." "Oliver may possess all of the qualities you've described him as but he may not be as bad as we think he is." "He's a terrible person!” Katherine voiced out.
"But people change.”
"Oliver can never change."
"We don't know yet, babe. Situations change people."
"I hate my life so much right now. I wish I wasn'tin this mess."
I feel the ball is in your court, honey. You can either make the situation” hard or-€asy. Let Ollie see my god babies: and who knows, he might go backto Australia and you wilh continue to live your life." Content bélongs to ~ "Him staying there, waiting for the kids to come back from their one month trip will only aggravate things. I'm sure you both would be expecting your 4th child before the end of the one month." "That's the worst thing that can ever happen and it will never happen.” "You sure, as far as I remember, God answers Childrens’ prayers faster." Katherine frowned. "What do you mean?" "I was reading Sophie a bedtime story when she mentioned wanting a little sister." Kathie had no idea why but her heart started pounding twice faster.
"I don't understand Sophie anymore. She has been saying strange things lately. Things she isn’t meant to think of. I hope no one is talking nonsense in her head.”
Michelle cRuckled. "Sophie is seven years old2Of course, she's old => enough to be a big sister. You don't need. to deprive her of that. And I'm sureyou don't need me to remind yotrabout how smart your kids are.” Céntent belongs to
Kathie sighed internally. She had a lot on her plate that the thought of having another baby didn't cross her mind.
"It's past midnight. I should get to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a long day. I feel so unmotivated already.”
I feel you. I would feel the same if I were in your Shoes, Try not to think too muctrabout it huh?!. Get a good rest for temorrow. I'm sure = <> tomorrow will fix itself and I hope whatever decision Oliver makes, it wilFfavor you."

"Yeah, thanks, babe. Will talk to you tomorrow."
After Katherine ended the call, She placed her phone back on the nightstand, then proceeded to have her bath
