Being Mrs Spence

Florence stopped him from completing the sentence.

“Don’t even think of asking me such questions. the only friend I had is Tina and since she got married and moved to far East we haven’t even spoken for over a year now. The only time she chat me up was last year when she needed money to stock up her food stuffs business after the arrival of her first child. She asked me to loan her, I don’t have such amount of money she was asking for. but I was able to send her little money just to support her business. Susan is the last person I will ever go to, even if she has, Susan won’t help. Maxwell, my ex is a no go area….

Cole fled up angrily

“You are mentioning people that will only mock us… mock me especially at the end. Don’t even think of going to all of this people you just mentioned. They’re only looking out for our downfall… how about getting a loan from your office….?

Florence looked at him angrily.

“Cole, how can you even suggest that kind of thing? You think my company will give me such a huge amount for a loan? Cole, I wasn’t there when you were borrowing money from every angle and pumping into Marina. Wanting me to wash the dishes after eating and enjoying yourself with her is uncalled for. If I decide or choose to help you wash it does not give you more right to keep packing dirty dishes to the sink for me to tidy. There is absolutely nothing I can do to help… if the bank are ready, they should come and take the house. We will live in the street. You can even move to madam Gold’s house. She is your mother after all and won’t kick you out. She has a big house and still has extra building occupied by tenants in an estate. She may give you an accommodation…

Cole frowned at what Florence said. He raised his voice angrily and said.

“You are talking rubbish Florence. How can you even suggest all of this? Is better if you did not say anything at all because you ended up getting me more annoyed with all you said. If you are only helping so that you can rob it on my face in the future then stop helping. Your husband kindly asked for your help because his house is about to be taking from him, and the only thing a self claimed loving wife will say is for him to be thrown to the street because she has decided not to forgive or forget his past mistake. Are you without sin… don’t you used to do things that I overlooked or forgive? Because I sin differently you think you are better than me. If you want to go to your perfect ex boyfriend that has no spot then byee… the door is open. But I’m sure of one thing you will running back to me in no time… nonsense!

Florence looked at him and shakes her head sadly.

“You’re an ungrateful fool. Even if I kill myself for you Cole you will still not appreciate it. My ex, Maxwell will make a better man than you will ever be. You are naturally wicked and I hate you for putting me through so much pain… I… I ju..

She swallowed hard , blinked back tears.

Florence stormed out with a bag and few things in it.

Cole was calling her to come back but she ignored him and left.

She drove to Maxwell’s house, knocked on the door.

Bianca who was stepping out opened up, and greeted her kindly. she asked to see Maxwell.

She told him that Maxwell was in his room, since is a weekend, he doesn’t come out on time.

Bianca wanted to go and inform him but Florence asked her not to worry, she will go and meet him up.

She went to his room, knocked on the door. No response. She knocked again and again.

“Who’s there, what’s the problem… do you need something…?

Florence did not respond, instead she turned the handle of the door and realized is not locked.

She opened it and entered the large beautifully designed room.

Maxwell seems to be working with his mini apple system on a table close to his bed.

He turned and was shocked to see Florence.

He didn’t stand, he remained seated looking at her.

Florence slowly walked to meet him.

She opened her mouth to say something but closed it. Maxwell continued looking at her.

She summoned courage and said

“Hey… Max. I’m sorry I came unannounced. I needed to talk with someone… I’m practically done with Cole. He is so ungrateful. Despite everything, he still makes all my efforts looks useless…

Maxwell breathed deeply but still did not say a word

.”… I’m sorry for the way I spoke to you and Susan the last time… I love you Max, I Know you may not believe me because…

She paused.

Maxwell spoke

“Because you have been getting intimate with Cole right… while taking care of his health. But you outrightly refused me touching you when we were together? I love you too Florence but I’m trying to move on with my life. You have kept me waiting for almost a year now and I’m not stupid. While I waited was I was hoping you will come back as you promised but you did not. Now, I’m trying to get over you, here you are trying to rekindle my feelings for You again after which you will run back to your Coleman as usual…

She blinked back tears. Maxwell may not deeply love or want her like before if he knows that she has been sleeping with Cole.

“I never slept with him. We only get to kiss maybe ones or twice but that’s all. He did not touch me neither did I. I refused him from touching me Max. You are the only man I want… for real this time…

Maxwell stood, gently draw her into an embraced.

“Is okay Flox. I’m happy there is no intimacy between you and him. Having you back is a dream come true. Please, stay with me… let’s plan our life together. But you have to sign the divorce paper if you haven’t done so. I don’t want half of you.. I want you all…

He bent over and kissed her and she responded. Maxwell kissed her face, her neck and back to her mouth.

He paused and asked her if she has eaten. She said she has not but don’t have appetite for food.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Maxwell, tickled her until she began to laugh.

He made her sit on his lap.

“Let’s go so that I can make your favorite delicacy for you… I miss you so much Flox. I will feed you like a child and will take you out later in the day… alright?

She smiled and nooded.

Maxwell took her hand and kissed them.

Florence suddenly feels abnormal movement in her bowel.

She has vomited twice yesterday and thought it was probably what she ate.

She felt like throwing up again but held herself.

The force of the vomit, ran from her stomach to her throat.

She stood, and rushed to Maxwell private bathroom and began to throw up.

.”Flox, are you alright? What is it… do you have fever? You are throwing up.. what did you ate?

Maxwell asked as he came to stand by the bathroom door.

Florence replied that she was fine, just to dismiss Maxwell.

She stayed in the bathroom staring at herself. What is the problem with her? She has not been feeling alright for days now but waved it off.

hope is not what she was thinking.

when last did she see her monthly flow? What if she is pregnant for Cole?

Florence gasped out and frown angrily.

She can’t think about that right now.

She washed her face and went to join Maxwell, who was still relaxing by the door and watching her.

As she was about getting to him she felt like throwing up again and rushed back to the bathroom.
