Chapter 84: Nina
Chapter 84: Nina
“ Deborah” I called slowly to her as I gulped nervously. I watched as she took a slow step closer to me.
I unconsciously step back in fear. What was she trying to do to me? And how did she find me?
“ You can't escape from me, Nina” Deborah smirked as soon as she saw fear cross my face briefly
before it disappeared.
“ I'm not scared of you, Deborah” I glared at her trying to be brave but it was just a facade. I was dying
inside while praying that Michael would come to find me soon.
“ Really?” Deborah replied as she swift her head to the left to watch me with a smile on her face“ Then
why are you sweating under the air con”
I ignored her as I turned to pick up my phone which was lying on the sink. I badly wanted to call
Michael but didn't want to provoke Deborah. Who knows what she will do to me?
“ I wouldn't try that if I were you,” Deborah called to me pointing to the phone in my hands. She came to
a stop beside me and turned to look at herself in the mirror.
“ What do you want from me, Deborah? Why can't you just leave me alone? Haven't you done NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
enough?” I screamed up at her. I'm tired of this cat and mouse game we are playing. Michael is mine
now, can't she accept defeat and let it go.
“ No, girl. I'm not yet through with you, when I am done you'll be six feet under the ground with Austin to
keep you company” Deborah glared at me before turning to fix her makeup ignoring me.
“ Come on, fix your makeup, your husband is waiting for you,” Deborah said sarcastically, giving me her
cynical smile “ How do you like the sound of that?” Deborah asked me, raising her eyebrows at me in a
mocking salute. I badly wanted to strangle her right now but I could never stand against Deborah, what
if she had a gun with her? Or a knife. God Nina! What have you gotten yourself into...
Deborah strengthens and combs her hair back with her hands before turning to cover her face with the
veil in her hands. She walked to the door and paused before turning to look at me“ This isn't over yet,
Nina. I'm only giving you some time off, I will be back at the right time to exert my revenge on you. Still
then, always watch your back” She called to me before stepping out of the door and closing it gently
behind her.
I sigh heavily before relaxing in the mirror. I can't believe that goes well. It's a pity that she still can't
change but something isn't right___ her baby, what happened to him? It looks like she had given birth
but why isn't she with him tonight? And what does she mean by the right time?
I stepped out of the washroom after replacing my lipstick with shaken hands and walked back to the
table where Michael was waiting for me with a frown on his face.
I forced a smile on my face and walked closer to him“ Sorry I'm late, I had a little emergency to attend
to” I told him avoiding his gaze. I didn't want him to see through my lies. What if he finds out that I was
with Deborah a while ago?
“ Are you alright, Nina?” Michael asked me with concern on his face as he reached out to hold my
hands across the table. I jumped in shocked, scared that Deborah was coming back for me only to
discover that it was Michael's hand.
“ Amore” Michael called slowly to me, his voice etched with the disapproval of my actions“ Is there
anything you are not telling me,?” He asked me with his hands folded across the table as he watched
me under the candlelight.
“ What can I get you?”
I was saved from answering as the waitress walked up to us and requested what we would like to eat.
Michael ordered our food and waved her off while turning to gaze at me.
“ Amore, do you have anything You'd like to tell me?” I watched Michael strengthen on his chair with his
hands folded across his chest. He turned to stare at me giving no room for argument...
“ You say? I__ mean__ there's___ n_othing__ to say” I stutter heavily as I avoided his eyes. Michael
sighed heavily as he shrugged and turned back to the food which the waitress had arranged on our
table.
“ Fine. Enjoy your food!” Michael called to me his voice bare of emotions. I know he was angry right
now at me but I don't want to bother him with my problems. Deborah was only after me, I don't want to
get Michael worried. He deserves a rest and we plan to do that here...
I nodded and turned to the food placed in front of me, I couldn't catch the name Michael had called it
when he ordered but I can tell for sure that it was delicious“ Woah!! This is so delicious” I called to him
with pure excitement on my face. The troubles with Deborah were quite forgotten in my mind.
“ You can say that again,” Michael replied, the glare and coldness never leaving his face. Someone
was still angry...
I decided to apologize to him, I pouted at him and reached out to hold his hands across the table, using
my best voice I called to him“ Baby__ please I'm sorry. Will, you forgive me__uh, uh,”
Michael's smile after seeing the poor excuse of my pity face“ You are not serious, Nina. That's fine, I'm
no longer annoyed with you”
“ Really?” I called to him pouting up at him clearly not believing him seeing that he still had that glare on
him.
“ I am. Fine, see I'm smiling” He told me pointing to his face where he was trying to smile just to please
me.
“ Whatever, you are only forcing yourself to smile” I scoffed at him and pushed the food away as I was
filled up. I can't wait to get back to our room at the cabin and have my much-deserved rest.
“ Are you done?” Michael asked me pointing to the food. I nodded at him and watched as he signaled
to the waitress who came to give us our bills.
Michael paid with his black debit gold card before turning to guide me out of the restaurant into the
waiting limousine which in turn drove us home...
***
I let Michael guide me down the steep stairs to the restaurant where he had booked for our lunch with
his brothers. We were supposed to meet them in the morning but Michael being Michael couldn't let me
go without having sex with him so here we are now, he holding my hands up the stairs because of my
shaky legs...
I glared at his broad back view and fit enhanced by his yellow short and white top while I was in a white
sundress with a hat, sunglasses adorned my face. I was a clear epitome of a billionaire wife.
“ Nina?”
I turned as soon as I heard Michael call me to see that he was already seated and watched me with
cute eyes. I scoffed at him and limped into the chair beside him.
“ Don't even think that you are going to do anything with me tonight” I warned him, glaring at him. With
the rate he's going I'm scared I won't be able to walk anymore.
That seems to put Michael's back in his best behavior as he smiles at me giving me his best puppy's
look“ Nina, darling, please don't do that to me. You know we are on our honeymoon. Surely, you can't
starve me, right?” He asked me while I ignored him and turned to gaze out of the restaurant admiring
the view.
Santorini was a captivating place with whitewashed walls and blue roofing sheet houses surrounded by
the oceans. Right now, we were seated in one of the restaurants looking into the oceans where couples
play with their kids and loved ones“ It is very relaxing and beautiful,” I told Michael, who smiled but still
kept his eyes on me.
“ Is sure is. We should watch the sunset before going back to the yacht. I'm sure you'll love it” Michael
called to me causing me to erupt in excitement.
“ Really? Woah” I exclaimed excitedly like a kid who had just been offered candies.
“ Yes, but___”
Michael paused as we saw both his brothers walk into the restaurant stealing the looks of everyone in
the restaurant. They both looked like models walking to us with their jackets crossed on one shoulder
and dark shades adorned their eyes.
“ Hey, big brother” Victor called as he settled himself into the seat across from us after draping his
jacket at the back of the chair. He turned to wink at me causing me to gasp at him.
“ Michael” Vino called softly as he also sat down beside Victor. He was the shy one among them and
he barely talked.
“ How are you both? And what are you guys doing in Greece?” Michael asked them as he turned to
stare from one to another while he pulled me closer to himself trying to show Victor that I was his, he
obviously didn't like the fact that Victor winked at me. Shior! Like it wasn't obvious already with his ring
on my finger, I mumble in my mind.
“ I came for a business meeting. It ended yesterday, but I stopped by to say hello to Victor. He was
having a shot today” Vino called to Michael before turning to take a sip of the red wine in his glass. He
frowned at Michael clearly not liking the drink in his glass. Michael shrugged silently telling him that
there wasn't anything he could do about that.
“ So, how was your shoot, Victor? And where's Leslie?” Michael asked Victor who shrugged before he
also took a sip of the wine.
“ It was fine. And Leslie is good. She had to go back to Italy” Victor replied, avoiding Michael's eyes.
Something was obviously wrong with him and Vino looked distracted as he kept looking at his phone
like he was expecting a phone call from someone. I decided to tell Michael my findings.
“ Are you sure they are alright? I mean look at Vino, he looks so distracted” I whisper into his ear,
pointing subtly to Vino was now glaring at the phone in his hands.
“ I noticed that too but I don't know what's wrong with him. Do you think it's work-related? I don't want to
ask him” Michael told me as we both watched Vino. I smiled as soon as I found the answers.
“ Do you think there's a woman in his life?” I asked Michael who also smiled before turning to Vino.
“ So, are you not going to tell me who the lucky girl is?” Michael asked Vino who stared at him in shock.
I guess he was surprised to see that we guessed correctly.
“ Yes, Vino tells us even I would love to know too. '' I called to him excitedly but suddenly his phone
rang and he stood up clutching the phone in his hands like his life depended on it.
“ Listen, guys. I have to go, talk to you later Michael. And Nina,” Vino called to us, already moving
towards the door with Victor beside him.
“ Welcome to the family” They both shouted before stepping outside into the hot sun. A car was waiting
to convey them to the airport where they will board their flight to Italy.
“ I guess we're back to only us now, ” Michael called to me, winking at me telling me exactly what he
would love to do...
“ Don't even go there” I told him, glaring at him as I stood up from the couch.
“ Let's wait till tonight. I know you'll be begging me. Come, let's go watch the sunset, it's time” Michael
told me, dragging my hands out of the restaurant toward the beach where everyone had gathered.
“ Woah!! This is so beautiful” I exclaimed as I stared into the hues of the sun, a mixture of yellow,
brown, and orange. It was so beautiful.
“ Can you take a picture for us?” I asked a man who stood beside us. He nodded as I handed him my
phone before Michael and I posed for the picture with the sun behind us.
It was later before Michael could take us home. I couldn't say I didn't enjoy myself and just like he had
said, I begged him before he finally succumbed to my pleas and had his way with me. I'm turning into a
bad girl. Thanks to my loving and hot husband...Michael Thompson
