Chapter 45
Quinn
Knowing Veronica is to know that she’s going to cause a ruckus if I’m not here.
Her loud cough made me avert my gaze from Ana. I glanced at the menu and immediately excused myself to the restroom.
To leave the two ladies together and to put myself in order.
My heartbeat accelerated rapidly with just our skin brushing against each other. I felt my length erect again. How can it erect in seconds!
And from just a feel of her succulent skin.
ed my fists into a
I got to the restroom and I knocked on all the doors to be sure that no one would overhear me then I stood before a mirror folded my ball and raised both fists beside my head in exclamation
I was certain that Veronica caught on to my loss of self to called me out of it. How would I face her after telling her that I had no such feelings for
The only reason why she didn’t pounce on either of us that instant was because we were on a dare game
If
she did that then,
we would be officially over but she held it to my surprise. I noticed Ana’s expression when all Veronica did was cough
She was surprised that she didn’t already pounce on us and put an end to our lives,
“Come on man, come on man.” I hit a fist on the ceramic bowl in the toilet.
If Fleur bears of this, I’d be roasted,
I looked down at my protruding length and used a palm to calm it down but it remained erected
I’ve been with Veronica all the while but I felt nothing, I was unmoved until I saw and touched Ana.
I wondered how she must be feeling at my roach, her mind might be running wild again.
The kiss scene resonated and I licked my lips in ecstasy.
Ana was who I craved, it’s been four years since I had her and my system was beginning to react to everything about her.
I never made love to her like a man should his wife but she’s the sweetest I ever had. My ego could not just let me say it.
Her body was always ready for me whenever I wanted it and I had to get drunk most of the time to take than usual as the sweetest made me cùm.
I thought of her bare body lying on my bed and her captivating curves and my length erected even more. Threatening to tear my pants.
I had to take care of it or I’ll be shamed by it. What would happen if Ana’s customers saw me coming out of the restroom with a hard length or what would happen if Ana and Veronica saw it?
Though the reactions I’d get from both ladies would differ, I didn’t want to do that.
I picked one of the restrooms and locked the door. Hulled my pants and held the long length that refused to calm.
Thoughts of Ana filled my mind so it was no trouble thinking about her or satisfying myself with thoughts of her
From her commanding confidence to her soft laughter and tone to her soft skin that smelt like vanilla–flavoured milk.
I began to stroke my length, I started slowly, while I scanned through my mind for the naughty memories ITdhad with her while we were married.
I let out a groan imagining that she was sucking my cork. I groaned again when I imagined the walls of her pussy embracing my cock with so much
Tincreased the pace and grip around my length and imagined her pounding me. And in minutes, I came.
I finally walked out of the restroom after tending to myself and I saw Veronica digging into the steak that I had here with Ana. She offered me the food saying it was her special and it was for free, to thank me for saving her.
I thought it was something special we shared but she served the same dish to Veronica, I felt betrayed but I hid it

Chapter 45
Without a word to Veronica, I ordered something different and in no time, I was served. I digged into my dish but I couldn’t help but notice the awkward silence between Veronica and Ana.
They didn’t even exchange breaths. What was going on? Did something happen while I was gone or does Veronica want to pass the dare and prevent the breakup?
I’ve never seen her this quiet even when we ate outside, she always had something to say about everything.
“Are you good?” I asked, feigning concern. Or was she pissed at me for the way I looked at Ana!
“Mm–mm” she replied with a hum while munching on some of the steaks.
With a shrug, 1 faced my food. This dare was not going as I planned.
1 was being affected in so many ways by Ana and Veronica here was comporting herself so well that it irked me.
This was meant to be a disaster in some way so that I would end things with her but she wasn’t cooperating. She never cooperated.
“Will our-?”
“Huh?” I exclaimed when Veronica’s voice cut through my thoughts
“Will our relationship continue now that I passed the test?” she asked calmly which was yet again unusual.
“You know the dare, one more visit to go, I replied and she replied with a nod and continued eating.
Ana stared at us occasionally in case we wanted to add something else to our table and her expression was cold.
The way she looked at Veronica and me when we walked into the restaurant made me feel guilty. She made me feel like a lover who wasn’t loyal to
her.
Or was it just me?
Whatever the case, I prayed silently that she would flop so I could end everything.
Every minute I spent with her drained me and 1 just can’t wait to be free once again and pursue the one my heart yearned for.
“How much is our bill?” I asked Ana who came to clear the table after our meal and just as she was about to reply, Veronica spoke
“Don’t worry dear, I’ll pay” She handed her card to Ana who looked at me for approval and when I didn’t say anything, she put the bill on it. I wondered if Veronica wanted to feel useful
This was the first time she was paying the bill since we got back together and it made me feel like she was doing it for eye service,
Anyway, I would watch as it unfolds

After my warnings to Veronica, she remained calm and reserved. I made sure to pass the message to her and I saw one trace of fear in her expression when I spoke. She knew that it wasn’t just a mere threat.
From the way she reacted when I told her to ask her mother what I did to her, she didn’t know about my encounter with her mother.
The woman must have been so scared to tell her daughter or anyone else about the threat or how I knew about it
came to jeopardizing my business or name, I wouldn’t take it lightly.
I was prepared for them this time around. I could take her rants but when it came to
“How much is the bill?” Quinn asked when I went to clear the table and just as I was about to respond, Veronica who had been silent all the while suddenly spoke up.
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll pay for it. She said, handing her cand to me.
I looked at Quinn’s Quinn’s for approval or disapproval but I got a neutral face so I collected the card and put the bill on it.
1 saw Quinn look at Veronica but there was no softness in his gaze. It was just plain
Their relationship was none of my business, I deducted the bill and handed her the card. After a few minutes, they left the restaurant and I felt a load leave my back
Something was up with their mood but I didn’t even
even stress to find out
I closed the restaurant for that day after I got a call from someone saying that Grandma Mira got into an accident on her way to the market,
She mentioned earlier that she was going to the market later that day as we had run out of most of the stuff at home. I gave her some cash after we listed what we needed for the house.
And because of how busy the day was for me, I didn’t call to check up on her or ask if she later went to the market.
Only for me to get a call in the night that she had gotten into an accident in the evening of that same day and was rushed to the hospital
1 quickly closed the store and rushed to the address that I was told only to find Ivy waiting at the entrance of the hospital to pick me up
Ivy was one of the contestants at the food competition. She was a good cook as well and she fought hard to enter the top two rounds of competition
Unfortunately, she defaulted because of the pressure from the short time she had to prepare a delicate meal that needed concentration and steady hands.
“Ivy“” I called the moment i
I got
down from the car.
“What are you doing here? Were you the one sent to pick me up?” I asked closing the distance and she nodded in response.
Ill take you to where your Grandma is.” She said, ignoring a part of my question.
eto start asking questions.
The tension in my heart was heavy and it was no time to start ask
1 followed her without argument and she led me to a VII room where Grandina Mira Lay, asleep.
Theaved a heavy sigh when I saw that she was stable.
“What happened to her! How did she get here? Lasked with concern and just then, a doctor walked in with some nurses behind him who greeted us and immediately got to work, checking the drip and her stability to be sure that all was in check.
“What happened to her? How did it happen? I demanded answers
Grandma Mira ofien booked rides whenever she had to go somewhere without me, I went to work with my car so there had to be an explanation as to how she got into this situation
“She got into an accident, ms, Ana, but there is no need to be alarmed. She just had a few scratches. And she has no internal bleeding so that’s a good thing.” He replied again and although I was happy with the reply, I needed to know more.
Where was the driver? How many drivers were involved:
“What about the driver?” I asked and the driver shook his head.

“He ran away when he saw that she passed out, he thought that he had killed her. She was about to cross when he beat the traffic light and moved so he hit her but it was a slight hit. Miss Ivy brought her in and we made sure to take good care of her since she was from Miss Ivy. He said again and 1 looked at bry who smiled at mr.
“Thank you so much, Ivy, you don’t know what you have done for me. I appreciated her with sincerity but she maintained her modest smile.
Something about what the doctor said struck me.
They had to do something because she was from Ms, Ivy? Who was ivy and what relationship did she have with the hospital that made the doctor say so?
And a VIP room! That was not given to anyhow patients.
Grandina Mira was asleep and I didn’t want to disturbs her sleep so I strolled out of the room with Ivy and we chatted while we strolled.
We got talking about the food industry and she told me how she enjoys cooking and how she got into the cooking competition.
Her passion drove her and has been driving her. She was so happy for me for owning my restaurant and she alur complimented me for the good work that she heard 1 was doing.
She refused to go to Italy to study law because of her passion for cooking. She lus gone to big cooking schools and she did well while at it.
I asked her what the doctor meant when he said that since she was the one who brought Grandma Mira, something had to be done without the presence of her family members and she told me that her parents were owners of the hospital.
I was surprised by the news but I appreciated her,
We talked at length and I save a friend in Ivy. Though her parents were wealthy, she didn’t let it get into her brain and make her treat people like they didn’t matter
she could have left Grandma Mira on the road, unconscious but she decided to bring her all by herself and treat her
I smiled at her but words but my smile suddenly froze when I remembered that I was a mother.
“Moon” Lexclaimed and quickly picked up my bag that sat beside me.
Tll be back no time, please help me take care of her, I instructed before rushing out of the hospital
Grandma Mira got a babysitter for Moon who always stayed with him whenever we were going out so that he wouldn’t be stressed by activities that
were irrelevant to him.
The babysitter’s hours were up and she had to leave the house but she was
home with Moon.
I didn’t have her contact so couldn’t call her, she just resumed with us and she was hired by Grandma Mira who did the interview.
She screened a lot of candidates for the job and only accepted to employ her becau lonely according to Grandma Mira.

1 left the house running to Grandma Mira whale I focused solely on business and career and she did pretty well with it. Since it was something that she also used to while away time as she wasn’t doing a paid job.
I drove two times the speed I normally would and I was relieved to find that she was still in the house.
Tim so sorry for the delay. Grandma Mira got into an accident this evening and was rushed to the hospital. I’m just returning from there. We won take this much time on a normal day I pleaded but her expression changed and she was sober.
“Grandma Mira got into an accident? Oh no! How is she? Will she get better soon! Hope she didn’t lose too much blood?” She rambled on, worried and it made me laugh.
“She’s okay dear. She just had some minor wounds but that won’t be any problem” I said and she heaved a sigh dramatically with her hands placed
I laughed at das before asking
“What is your name?“.
“Claire ma am.” She replied politely and I nodded. –

pressed it into her hands and told her to book a ride home with it since it was too late.
She left and I went to check on Moon who was sound asleep in his room
I called Terry immediately and fed him with all the information I knew and he went to the hospital immediately.
Relieved that someone was staying with Grandma Mira for the night, I retired to bed but I couldn’t sleep
My mind wandered to the happenings of the day and I wondered if the accident was Veronica’s doing, her threats might not be some onlinary ram like the one she used to spew.
She might have been involved in the accident, especially after 1 threatened to do more than I did to her morn. Maybe that sparked anger in her and she did what she planned anyway
Or maybe it was just me overthinking it
I sighed and forced myself to sleep
The next day was a rush day for me as I woke up so late. Fatigue from the previous day played out and my eyes were a bit swollen. I woke Moon up. bathed him and made breakfast for him, and while he ate, I quickly prepared rice porridge for Grandma Mira and Terry who were at the hospital
I drove Moon to school and proceeded to check on the two who were at the hospital and I saw Ivy.
“What You didn’t go home last night?” 1 asked and she shook her head.
“I couldn’t. My parents are out of the country so be alone if I go home anyways so I decided to just stay with her Mr. Terry also came and we talked and gisted through the night, it was fun“.
I shot a knowing glance to Terry and he laughed loudly in response
1 see you had a blast.” I said and he smiled.
“Oy please, don’t get ahead of yourself Ivy is a reserved and respectable female. We just had a good long gist, that is all” We all laughed at this and i asked how Grandma was doing and I was told that she would be able to go home today.
I gave them the rice porridge I made since the hospital already made provisions for Grandma Mira’s breakfast.
They were so happy and they munched on it with glee.
After breakfast and some more chat, the doctor came in and did one last check before turning to us.
“Her vitals are okay, and she has been stable since yesterday so you can take her home now. It was almost as if Grandma Mira heard him speak about going home
She finally woke up and she was surprised to see us all with her. She ate her breakfast and told us what happened with the driver.
Apparently, he saw her crossing the road but still drove at speed. It was suspicious and I exchanged a knowing glance at Terry who also knew that the story was fishy but we didn’t want to kill the mood and the high spirits we had the morning.
The doctor instructed Grandina Mira nut to stress herself and to have enough rest whatever opportunity y she had to and have heme pain relier medications before well left
Of course, Ivy offered to go with us as she didn’t want to be lonely and she e
enjoys–our company so I let her.
We were all firre because of her anyway and she wasn’t bad of company as well
Grande Mira asked to sit in the living room and watch her favorite show and we sat with her and laughest heartily as she criticized the movie and
the actors
Terry asked after Moon and I told him he was in school
Who’s Moon?” Ivy asked, looking lost and I told her that he was any son. She smiled at this and complimented my shape even after giving birth. I
It was hard for people to believe that I had a kid with the kind of shape I had. My curves were still popping and I had no stretch marks or saggy skin

move from my smartphone.
Just as Terry was about to go to the kitchen, a knock sounded on the door.
We all looked blank because none of us were expecting visitors.
He opened the door and we froze in shock as Quinn walked into the sitting room.
