A One Night Stand With Mr. Goldman

~~~Tiara POV

After a long day yesterday, I went to go to bed.

When I got up I couldn’t even remember what happened yesterday after I took my bath because I was too tired.

Now I got up very early and Laurel’s space on the bed was still empty, that man and work?

How can he go to work early in the morning? I asked myself.

I immediately got up from the bed and rushed to the bathroom to urinate.

When I am done I watch my face, brush my mouth, and then take my bath before stepping out of the bathroom.

I walk to my closet, find something simple, and put it on after that I step out of the closet.

Greetings Madam! Noela said

You aren’t sleeping? I asked her.

No madam, do you need anything?

Don’t tell me you have been here ever since.

Yes, madam, I have been.

And you saw me when I was naked? I asked her again.

No madam. I didn’t

Okay, so what are you doing here?

Nothing madam. I just came to ask if you need my help.

No, I don’t need any help.

After I turned the maid down she left my room and I took my phone and placed a call to Laurel.

Ring, ring, ring

After three rings he picked up the call.

Hello

Yes,

Did you leave without waking me up? I asked him

Sorry, I had an important meeting to attend but I will be back soon. He said

Alright, I will be waiting.

By the way, I would like to ask you for a favor.

What is it? Laurel asked. I would like to go visit your stepmother and brother in prison.

Why would you like to go there? Laurel asked

No matter what she did, it won’t change the fact that she is your stepmother and he is your stepbrother. So we need to go see them but if they say dey don’t want us then we will need to respect their decision.

Okay, fine we will go see them together. Laurel said.

You can freshen up while waiting for me and please do make sure you have breakfast.

also, make sure my dad eats something.

I know that all of this even had a great effect on my dad.

It was his wife and stepson who tried to kill his other son.

Alright, you go ahead I will join you later let me go freshen up first.

Okay. I said to Laure.

Turn off the call and walked out of the room.

When I got downstairs I was greeted by the maids which I answered.

Please, is the breakfast ready? I asked them and they all accepted.

Alright, please go and call my father-in-law so he can come for breakfast.

Young madam, we are just from Old Master Goldman’s room but he refuses to come downstairs for breakfast.

We were about coming to wake you and the young Master before you showed up.

Alright, please where is his breakfast don’t worry I will go give him by myself.

Okay, madam.

The maids said and one of them went and got me Dad breakfast. Which I took so I could go give him.

Please when my husband comes downstairs tell him I went to go give Dad his breakfast.

Yes, madam. The maids answer and I walk back upstairs to Dad’s room.

When I got there I knocked on the door but I didn’t receive any reply.

But I kept knocking on the door but still didn’t reply so I decided to enter the room.

When I walked in Dad was still lying on the bed.

Good morning Dad! I said to him,

Good morning dear, what are you doing here? He asked

I am sorry Dad to come inside your room without your permission just that the maids told me you refused to come to join us for breakfast.

That’s why I brought your breakfast to you.

Is okay dear, just that I am not feeling as to eat.

Dad, you can’t say that. You need to eat something so you will be able to gain back your strength.

How do you expect me to eat after everything that happened yesterday?

Do you know how I feel when I think of the fact that for the past 25 years, I have been married to a woman I thought would love my son as hers

but rather she has been planning on killing my son?

And what was her reason for that?

She said it was because I gave my son all of my property. Meanwhile, I gave her son just 10 million dollars to start up a business.

Dad, trust me when I say I understand what you are going through.

No, you don’t Nesla, if she was feeling that I was not a good father to her son she would have told me rather than trying to kill my son.

She didn’t even try to find out why I made that decision.

It was all because the properties in Laurel’s position weren’t mine.

It all belongs to Laurel’s late mother and it was agreed that I will hand over all the properties to our son when he is old enough to control the business.

Which is what I did and she saw it and thought I discriminated.

That is fine, you don’t need to let what your wife said to you get the best of you.

You know she is just angry that is why she said what she said.

But Dad, we both know that it is not enough for you to not eat.

Yes, you are angry but let it not stop you from eating.

Dad, Laurel, and I will be going to the prison today to go see Mom and Allen.

You can come along if you want.

No, I won’t be able to come with you both. I think you both should go. I will go another day. Right now I don’t want to see that woman’s face and also the face of her son.

Is it okay Dad? You need to calm down. Before you have high blood pressure. And please don’t let that bother you and eat your food.

Thanks so much, dear, I will eat my food. You can keep it on the table and go have your food.

Dad, do you think I will keep this food here without seeing you eating? Sorry Dad but I am not living in your room without you finishing your food and you know it is not good for me since I am carrying your grandchild.

That is why I am telling you to go eat.

No Dad, if you want me to go eat my food then why don’t you do me the favor of eating all your food?

Okay fine, I will eat it right now. He said and stood up from the bed. Sat down on one of the chairs in his room and started eating. Within some time he was done eating.

I am done eating now so can you go eat your food right now? He asked

Yes, Dad, I will go eat my food now since you have finished your food. I will go with the plates and leave the water here in case you will need it.

Alright dear, thank you.

I left his room and went to the dining table where I met Laurel already sitting down with his food in front of him

You are back too early. I said to him

I was on my way when you called. He answered

Oh, now I see why you are early.

I gave the dirty plates I was carrying to the maids.

And walked to the chair beside him and sat down.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He finally ate the food?

Yeah, after I told him if he doesn’t eat I won’t eat either so he decided to eat so I won’t starve his grandchild.

Ohh! That means I should be grateful for the baby who helps make his grandfather eat. Laurel said.

And what of the baby mother won’t you thank her too?

How can I thank the baby without thanking the baby’s mother?

Seriously Tiara, thanks so much for everything. Laurel said why looking at me.

There is no need to do that. I am just doing my responsibilities as your wife.

You have done more than what most wives will do for their husbands especially if they got married to their husbands the same way we Ifth got married

If nothing, let’s just have our breakfast. I said and we both started eating our breakfast.

A few minutes later we were done with our breakfast.

Laurel, we will go to the prison later that day, right? Asked him and he accepted.

Why don’t you come and show me the car you bought for me yesterday since I was too tired to go outside.

We were both about to go out when Dad’s voice interrupted us.

” Are you both going to prison right now?” he asked

No Dad, your son brought me a present yesterday for my birthday but I couldn’t see it since it was outside and I was tired. That is why I have asked him to go show me now so I can see it very well.

Dad, come let go and see the gift. What type of gift did he bring? Dad asked

Dad, Laurel gave me a car key yesterday.

Wow! That means my son got you a car.

You can say that again Dad, I am now a car owner.

Do you know how to drive? No, Dad but your son promised to teach me.

Okay, let’s go see the car. Dad said as we all stepped outside.
