Mummy I got you a new husband

SOPHIE’S POV

” Can I use the bathroom?” I asked Karl as we moved away from Ryan to meet the other guests as I had suggested; I had been apprehensive following our chat with Ryan and wanted some alone time to calm down, which is why I requested to go to the bathroom.

Karl did not seem to comprehend why I needed to use the bathroom right after our chat with Ryan. Suddenly noticing my composure, he quiered if I was ok.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Are you alright, babe? Karl said, noting my unease, as he tugged my hairs off, which were now obscuring my face, and glanced at me. Tears was welling up in my eyes, and I attempted to hide them as I stare at him. I did not want him or anybody else to find out about my history with Ryan so I had to act like everything was fine when he asked.

” I just need to use the bathroom Karl; that is not too much to ask.” I said as I was already irritated by his overbearing attitude since the celebration began, so I shoved his hands away.

“I simply want to know if you are okay,” he stated quietly, attempting to figure out what was wrong with me. “I m fine, you can stop with the act.” I murmured to Karl as I attempted to get away, already outraged by what was going on. I turned my face from him and wiped off the tears that streamed down my cheeks so he would not notice it.

” Just let me go Karl” I said again trying to get off his grip, he was now holding me trying to find out what was wrong. Karl had already been doing too much since the celebration started. I did not understand why he was attempting to be so lovey-dovey. I knew we had to seem like a couple for public appearances, but he seemed to relish the attention which annoyed me even more.

He was been too clingy and I did not like that. Igrumbled and attempted to move away, but Karl clung to me tightly, unwilling to let go. Despite his apparent displeasure with my comment, he grinned broadly as if he did not mind, which irritated me even more.

“Let me go, Karl.” I murmured, still struggling to hold back tears, he soon noticed how much I wanted to leave and let me go eventually.

“I will be waiting, my darling.” He remarked as he kissed my cheeks. My heart was pounding hard as I excused myself, I looked at him sternly and heading for the bathroom, feeling so much hurt and hate.

I could not believe who I had just seen “Ryan.” I muttered as I walked away. I noticed one of the visitors glancing at me, wondering if I was all right. She appeared to have seen my drama with Karl, so I faked a grin and waved as I walked away, headed for the bathroom.

I never thought I would have to encounter Ryan again in my lifetime. I had buried all my memories of him and even told my daughter her father had died, but here he is in flesh. ” Who would have known I would meet him after all these years?” I mumbled as I walked away.

Years had gone, the pain had been forgotten, and I had moved on, but seeing Ryan brought back emotions I had long since forgotten and did not want to relive and now he was the personal assistant to my supposed husband.

Fate was a jerk for putting me through this misery again. My heart stung like it was bleeding, and I assumed it was bleeding from the memories of the pain I had to endure throughout the previous 10 years. The events came flooded in my mind like it happened yesterday.

When Karl had made mentioned of Ryan during his speech, appraising him for a job well done, I never assumed it would be the same Ryan from years ago. It never occurred to me that he could be the same person. ” It was such a small world, who would have thought?” I thought to myself.

I did not know what to do when I first saw him, I had tried to clean off the stains off his shirt and was apologising for bumping into him when. I suddenly realized who he was; “Was fate playing a cruel joke on me?” I questioned myself, stunned to my bones, about what was going on.

I felt urine practically flowing out of my body and into my underpants out of shock, a surge of emotions came over me as tears welled up my eyes.” You d**k, how dare you call my name?” I asked him, hitting him continuously, and when he called my name I suddenly jilted out of my reverie realizing all of this were my mind playing a trick on me.

I chose to keep my cool since I did not to cause a scenr and have everyone in our business. “But what do I do now?” I asked myself, my mind racing with thoughts as I stared at him.

“Just pretend Sophie.” I heard the muttering of the calmest voice I ever heard say to me.” Act like you do not know him.” I heard again and when I glanced back and I realized no one had been talking; I knew just then it was my heart speaking to keep the hidden feelings at bay, not wanting to go through all the hurt again.”But Did it truly work?” I questioned myself as I fought hard to hold my tears.

I pondered on why I had to meet Selene’s father after 10 years, and realized Fate was cruel and did not have any considerations for whoever got hurt. I stood there not sure what I had to do about anything.

I soon pretended not to know him and thanks to Karl intervention, I was able to leave immediately. As I excused myself from Karl’s presence and rushed to go the bathroom. I tried so much to hold my tears.

I got ino the bathroom and checked the doors ensuring no one was in and then locked the door behind me, tears streamed down my face uncontrollably. It felt like fate was playing a cruel trick on me, bringing Selene’s father back into my life after ten long years. Memories of our past together flooded my mind, reminding me of all the pain and heartbreak I had endured and how what I had to go through to raise my child alone.

I stared at my reflection in the mirror, I could not believe after all of this years this had to happen. I splashed water on my face, desperately trying to wash away the tears but it did notwork as the tears just followed ceaselessly. My heart could not contain the pain I felt.

I tried to regain my composure. But no matter how hard I tried, the pain in my heart refused to subside. How could Ryan just reappear like this? Did he even know about Selene? Questions raced through my mind, but there was no time for answers.

I took a deep breath and tried to collect myself. It was clear that I had to face Ryan, he was here now anyways.” Do I have him fired?” I asked myself unsure about what to do. ” No, Sophie that would be foolish of you.” I mumbled again discarding the thoughts of having Karl fire Ryan without any excuse.

I was not sure what to do But first, I knew I needed to compose myself and put on a brave front. I wiped away my tears, “Sophie Harrison you are stronger than this and Ryan will pay for all he did.” I said to myself as I took my purse to do a little make over since my face was already ruined. I was not sure how Ryan was going to pay, but I guess I had a plan to make him suffer for the longest time while I watched.

” Being Karl Rutherford wife’s made off afterall” I thought to myself and as soon as I was done, I took one last look at my reflection in the mirror before unlocking the door.

As I walked back to the party, I could feel a mix of emotions swirling inside me. Anger, betrayal, and sadness all battled for dominance in my heart. But above it all, there was a determination to protect Selene at any cost and hurt Ryan the much he hurt me.

” Ryan right, I said, stretching my hands to shake Ryan when I met him as I was headed back to the party. ” Sorry about earlier I guess” I said smiling mischeviously at him.

” I hope you find your Sophie soon” I said as I smiled at him ” Thanks and sorry for the misunderstanding.” He responded as he shook my hands.

“Be ready for what coming Ryan, Do not say I did not warn you.” I muttered as I watched him leave.
