I was shocked when he moved closer to me cradling my sobbing form, this caused me to cease crying and look up and him but Cameron's attention was directed elsewhere as he slowly rubbed my back. "I didn't mean to be harsh but the truth is I'm the one who got you into this mess." He admitted with a sigh, "if we weren't married neither of those women would be after you. While he wasn't wrong, I have never for once blamed him. I wanted to tell him that it was fine and we would eventually pull through this but it seemed like he wasn't done talking yet. "I'd hate myself if something happened to you."That took me by surprise and even caused my heart to skip a bit, not only was he worried about me he was also admitting it to my face. I couldn't help but notice that he seems a bit off today, but I'm not complaining it seems to be a good thing rather. "And I'm not saying this because I'm in love with you or anything." His voiced filled the air once, and I chuckled barely holding myself bac

The room was in disarray but it didn't take long for everyone to get into position. I saw a middle aged woman approach, joining us on the high table, and even though I was sitting down on Cameron's lap that didn't deter her from winking at him. I turned my face to the front pretending not to notice. Soon they commenced filming, she questioned Cameron about his recent scandal, he seemed eager to accept the question but what I didn't know was that he would push me to the war front."My wife here can explain what happened that night." He said with a proud smirk on his face, suddenly everyone's attention was focused on me. I froze momentarily trying to piece my thoughts together. Nervous as I was I knew I had to do this, in order to prove his innocence. I won't leave my husband alone to the wolves, so I wiped my sweaty palms against the skirt I had on preparing myself to speak. "We we're together that night.. at home." My voice was barely audible. The woman appeared confused as if she

“And why shouldn’t I?” I stepped forward with my chest pushed forward as if say that I wasn’t intimidated when in reality I was trembling on the inside. “If you and your husband are being stalked by his crazy ex, I’m sure you would be curious and eventually go to do some digging.” There was no reason to hide that I had done my homework on her, didn’t she do the same thing? I trailed my eyes towards Cameron and found him staring at me in amazement.He must probably be wondering where I had gotten the courage from, I’m used to being bullied by his mother and sister anyway. I could just endure waiting for it to be over, except this time I’m not dealing with his family member but rather an ex girlfriend.Unable to take it anymore I watched as she charged toward me, but I was one step ahead of her, quick to dodge and grab her ponytail from behind. She ended up missing a step, I found that to be the perfect opportunity and let go of my hold. This caused her to fall flat on her face, smacki

I watched her hands go up as if she’d hit me again, this caused me to close my eyes waiting for the harsh sting of her palm on my cheek but it never came. Instead, I felt a presence before me, like an armor protecting me from danger, Cameron was standing there holding his mother’s hand up in the air.The reaction on her face was so priceless that I almost could not keep myself from bursting into a laughing fit but I told myself to hold it in, not wanting to create more problems.“And what do you think you’re doing?” Gina asked with anger blazing in her eyes.“I should be the one asking you that.” His deep tone travelled along the corridor, “what do you think you’re doing to my wife?”Thank god his back was hidden from me if not he’d see me blushing like a fool right now. Her confused expression soon transformed into a wicked smile as she parted her lips to speak, “I’m only teaching her what’s right and how to be a proper lady so she doesn’t go out there one day and put mud on our nam

“It’s not something you can do.” He cut in even before I could be done with my sentence. I don’t know what I was expecting but it hurt to hear him say that either way I wasn’t intended on going down without a fight.“You’re the only one who thinks so, also Gina promised to introduce a teacher who’d coach me properly. What do you mean it’s not something I can do, have you seen me try?”I was utterly pissed, even if he was against the idea, he could’ve worded it nicely. “Doing that will not change anything,” Cameron said reaching for his tie, “it’s just not something you can do, it’s way more than you think.”I felt heavily insulted, “is it because I didn’t go to college, that’s why you’re looking down on me.” My insecurities couldn’t help but jump out, although no one had ever mentioned it, I knew not having a college degree made them look down on me.I too once had dreams and aspirations, but what could I do when my parents died in an accident all of a sudden, leaving three siblings
