Chapter 114

It was still early in the morning, the sun had not even come up yet but today was a special day. I was going to be whisking my wife away for the birthday trip of her dreams. She had always wanted to be on a boat in the Mediterranean and that was exactly what I was going to give her.

When she decided that she wanted to finish the movie I knew that it had not been an easy decision. But I also knew that this was something that she needed to do. Not only for herself but for the sake of her commitment to her craft. She loved creating live us and this was her passion. I didn’t want her to walk away from it simply because of fear.

I could tell the first few days being back here had been a pain but now with the movie wrapping up and with her load being lifted a little, she was in need of some vacation time.

My phone buzzed on the counter as I packed the last of her toiletries while she slept in the room.

When I saw the caller ID I declined it almost immediately.

This woman had been calling me non-stop for the past three weeks. She had sent me almost 100 messages and a multitude of voicemails. She had even attempted to send something to my workplace. I was at my wit’s end with her. She didn’t know how to take no for an answer.

The last time I had seen her had been in the hospital when she had come with the very flowers that my wife hated while she lay in bed fighting for her life. It was only now that I could see what Adelaide had been talking about the entire time. Angela was as conniving and cunning as a snake.

And I had allowed her into our garden. But I refused to let that negative energy back inside our lives again. I was going to protect my family with everything that I had inside of me because that was exactly what my wife deserved.

I continued to pack my wife’s bags. But then my phone rang again.

It was her.

Again. I ignored the call but not even two minutes later, she was calling again. It was 4 in the morning on a Thursday, no less.

Instead of hanging up the phone again, I just decided to answer it. I pressed the cell phone against my ear and waited for her to speak.
