Chapter 40 Despair

“Why? I told you I would take you home. Don’t you live here?”

“I thought you would take me to yours.”

I shook my head.

“Gemma, I told you. I need to take care of some business, and I will probably be out all night.”

She looked at me, frowning.

“Is it about another woman?”

1 laughed. Actually, she was right, but she had nothing to do with that, as I always told her I didn’t want a relationship. But this time I didn’t argue with her, as I needed her.

“Gemma, don’t think too much.”

“Then why can’t I stay in your house?”

1 took a deep breath.

“Gemma, do you remember what I told you when we started this all?”

I could see she swallowed, and she lowered her head.

“I know Gideon, but we are together happily. I understand you, and you know me well. We are good together.”

“Most of the time, yes, but you didn’t let me breathe lately. I need a break.”

Her face changed to an angry one.

“I’m sorry, but do I remember correctly you got married to another woman lately?”

“Do I remember correctly I told you the reason?”

“You can’t be serious.”

“I am. I’ll contact you soon, but if you want to continue with me, then give me a break.”

“But…”
