Chapter 91
💗KIM💗

I saw disappointment flashing through his eyes. He moved to get on his feet. 

My heart is literally racing right now. I can't believe I slept in his arms. 

Why did he come here? 

He walked towards me. 

My heart increased its pace. 

He stood in front of me. His hand reached for me but I looked away, stopping him halfway. 

He heaved a sigh. "Come down for breakfast when you are ready." He said before heading out. 

I let out a breath as I closed the door. 

I walked towards the bed and sat on it. 

I covered my face with my palms as I recalled waking up on his chest.

I couldn't believe it. 

I slept in his arms all through the night. 

I don't even know when he came in. 

He held me tightly like he was keeping me safe. 

No doubt I slept very well. 

Very peaceful. 

I have to leave here. 

I need to go back to Robert. 

God, do I really want to go? 

Ernest wants me to stay here with him. 

No, I can't. That will be foolish of me. 

That will be me giving in very easily to him. 

Not after all he did to me. 

I should get ready and leave. 

I got on my feet and walked towards the bathroom. I did my business and walked back to the room. 

I wiped my body with the towel, applied lotion and put on the dress I wore yesterday. 

I arranged my hair, applied perfume and put on my shoes. 

I stared at my one last time in the mirror before heading out of the room. I walked along the hallway and then the stairs. 

Descending the stairs, I heard my kids' voice. It is coming from the dining table. 

I walked towards the dining table and I saw everyone seated. When I say everyone, I mean Ernest, Indy, Ryan and Emma. 

Martha and Isabel are serving them breakfast. 

"Mummy!" Ryan yelled, making everyone look at me. 

I smiled at him.

"Good morning, mum." Emma greeted me. 

"Good morning, sweetie." I said, placing a kiss on her temples. 

"Good morning, mum." Ryan greeted me. 

"Good morning, honey." I said as I sat next to Emma who is close to Ernest. Ryan and Indy are opposite us. 

"You are all dressed up." Indy said. 

"Yes. Good morning, Indy." I greeted her. 

"Pleasant morning." She said. 

I felt Ernest's eyes on me. 

"Going somewhere?" Indy asked as Isabel served my meal. 

"Robert's place." I said. 

"Are you taking the kids with you?" She asked. 

"We don't want to go." Ryan whined. 

"Yes, mum. We don't want to go. We want to stay with dad and auntie Indy." Emma said. 

I looked at Ernest. He is chewing his meal and looking at me. 

"Aw," Indy said, ruffling Ryan's hair. 

"I am not taking you. I am going alone." I said as I picked up a tiny portion of my meal. 

"Yes!" My kids squealed. 

"I am sure Elodie will be disappointed once I tell her that you don't want to see her." I said. 

"I don't want to see her." Ryan said. 

I scoffed internally. 

"I do. But later." Emma said. 

I shook my head in disbelief. 

"When are you coming back?" Ernest asked, making me look at him. 

He is looking at me. 

I shrugged. "Whenever I decide." I said, facing my food.

"Aren't you going to visit the kids?" He asked. 

Seriously? 

I threw him a fake smile. "Yes. I will. Can you please stop asking me questions?" 

He dropped his gaze. 

"Thank you." I said, facing my food.

"Are you two enemies?" Emma asked, making my heart react. 

"No, princess. We are not." Ernest said. 

"Can we play ball together at the pool like yesterday?" Ryan asked. 

"Yes sure. But your mother is leaving." Ernest said, making me throw him a glare. 

"If you can convince her to stay back so we can play, that will be perfect." He said. 

I scoffed in disbelief. 

This jerk. 

"Mum, don't go." Emma said, making me look at her. 

"Yes, mum, pleaseeee." Ryan whined. 

I glared at Ernest. 

He dropped his gaze. 

"Mum," Emma called. 

"I have to go and see Elodie. I will come back right after." I said. 

"Are you coming back today?" Ryan asked. 

I looked at Ernest. 

He is looking at me. 

I looked at Ryan. "Tomorrow, honey." 

"Okay," he said, looking unhappy. 

"Don't worry, kids. Aunt Indy is here. We will have a lot of fun." Indy said, making me focus on my food. 

"I will bake cakes. You love cakes right?" She asked. 

"Yes!" They answered happily. 

Indy chuckled. 

"Sir," Martha called. 

"Yes, Martha?" Ernest asked.

"Someone is here to see you." Martha said. 

"Kimberly," A familiar male voice called, making me freeze. 

I looked in his direction. 

It was Robert. 

He is dressed in a milky-colored suit, standing there and looking at me. 

I got on my feet. 

"Robert," 

"What are you doing here?" I heard Ernest ask. 

"The nerve of him." Indy said. 

"I heard you are back from your trip. The trip which you took my family along." Robert said. 

Ernest scoffed. "They are not your family. Stop calling my family yours, you fu....." Ernest paused. 

Robert's eyes moved to me. 

"Just leave." Ernest said. 

"I am not leaving without my fiance." Robert said. 

I dropped my gaze as I picked up my bag. 

I leaned down and kissed Emma's temples. I walked towards Ryan and placed a kiss on his temples. 

"I will be back soon, okay?" I said to them. They nodded. 

My eyes moved to Ernest. 

He is looking at me. 

My heart reacted. 

"Come on, Kimberly." Robert said, making look away from Ernest and walked towards Robert. 

He placed a kiss on my temples, sending shivers down my spine.

I smiled at him a little as he held my hand and we headed out of the house. 

We got into the backseat of his car and drove out. 

I felt odd instantly. 

Like I don't want to leave. 

I felt tears coming but I managed to suppress it. 

You can't cry for leaving him, Kim. 

Don't forget all he did to you. He doesn't deserve you. 

He was an awful jerk to you. Don't forget that. 

Robert is a good man. He has been nothing but nice to you. 

Be happy. 

I heaved a sigh as I stared at the window. 

I felt a touch on my hand. 

It was Robert. 

I looked at him.

"Are you okay?" He asked. 

I nodded, smiling.

He moved my knuckles to his lips and  placed a kiss on it. 

"I missed you." He said, smiling at me. 

"Me too." I said. 

"I am getting that bastard arrested for kidnapping you." He said. 

My heart dropped. "What?" 

"He kidnapped you, didn't he?" 

"Uh.....he....he only wanted to get his kids." I said. 

He gritted his teeth a bit. 

"You believe he is the kids' father." He asked, looking at me. 

My heart pounded. "I am sorry." 

He scoffed. "What are you sorry for, baby?" He asked. 

I dropped my gaze. 

"It's okay if they are not my kids. He can have them. But he can't have you" He said. 

I looked at him. 

He is looking at me. 

"He can never have you. I will make sure of that." He said, smiling as he kissed my knuckles again. 

This time, I felt a little bit terrified.

I don't know why. 

But I forced a smile. 



Robert opened the door for me and I  walked in, smiling at him. 

"Welcome home, baby." He said, kissing my cheek. 

"Thank you." 

"Kimberly!" Elodie claimed my attention. 

"Elodie," I called, smiling as she ran towards me and hugged me. 

"I missed you." She said. 

I chuckled, caressing her hair. "I missed you too, sweetie." 

"Where are my siblings?" She asked, making my heart clench. 

"They are with their real dad, princess." Robert chipped in. I wasn't expecting him to say it like that. 

Elodie's smile fell. 

She looked at me. "Is that true?" 

"Elodie...." 

"Yes. It is true. It is just the three of us now." Robert retorted. 

I looked at him. 

He smiled at me. 

I looked at Elodie, smiling a little.

"They promised to visit very soon." I assured her. 

She nodded slightly. 

"Why don't you go back to your teacher while I take Kim to the room, okay?" 

Elodie nodded slightly. 

"Is Jessie here?" I asked. 

"No. She went back to school." Elodie said. 

"Oh. Okay." I said, recalling the last time I spoke to Jessie. 

Elodie walked back to her new teacher who is standing behind her. She is a blond woman who looks older than me. 

"Come on, baby," Robert said, placing his hand on my waist and leading the way. 

We walked up the stairs and he took me to his room. 

I felt weird the minute we got to his room. 

"Welcome back, baby." He said, walking ahead and towards his bed. He sat on it. 

My eyes moved to the wedding picture of him and his wife. 

"Aren't you excited?" He asked, making me look at him. 

He is staring at me with a smile. 

"Of course I am. I just.....i thought I would stay at the guest room." 

He heaved a sigh. 

"I mean, that's where i use to stay." I said nervously. 

"I want things to change, baby. You are my fiance. I want to share a bed with you from now on." 

My heart picked up. 

"Do you have a problem with that?" He asked. 

"No. No, I don't. I...." I paused as my eyes moved to the picture. I looked at him. 

He is looking at me. 

"I can't stay here with that on the wall." I pointed at the picture. 

He looked at the picture. "Oh, the picture?" He asked. 

I nodded. 

He huffed. "It is no big deal. I will take it down right now." He said, getting on his feet and walked towards the picture. He took it down and walked towards the walk-in closet. 

I wasn't expecting him to take it down so easily. 

He walked back into the room. 

"That is settled. Anything else?" He asked. 

I shook my head. 

"Perfect." He said, walking towards me and placed his hands on my arms. 

"You look so beautiful, baby." 

I smiled nervously. 

His eyes fell on my lips. My heart pounded. 

He leaned down and kissed me.  

I felt weird. 

"I missed you so much." He said, wrapping me in a hug. 

I held him too, feeling my clenching heart as Ernest came to my mind. 



NIGHT HOURS......

I got on the bed and covered myself a little. 

I inhaled and exhaled, comporting myself. 

Stop thinking about Ernest, Kim. 

You are with your fiance. 

You are with the man for you. 

Just stop, okay? 

I nodded at my thoughts. 

Robert walked out of the walk-in closet dressed in a black tank top and black sweatpants. 

Images of Ernest in nothing but his sweatpants came to my head. 

I shook it off. 

"Hey, gorgeous," Robert said, smiling. 

I smiled at him too as he got on the bed. 

"First time sharing a bed with my queen. I am so excited." He said, chuckling. 

My heart picked up. 

God, I hope he is not getting any ideas.

He leaned closer to kiss me but I moved my face away. 

"What's wrong?" 

"Hmm?" 

He raised his brows at me. 

"Nothing. Have you kissed Elodie goodnight?" I asked. 

He scoffed. "No." 

"I should go and do it." I said, moving to get out of bed but he held me back. 

"No need for that, baby. Elodie is a big girl. She is not five like Ryan and Emma. Trust me she doesn't need kisses." He said. 

I sat still, dropping my gaze. 

"But I do." He said, smiling as he grabbed my face gently and closer. He kissed my lips. 

I waited patiently for it to end already. 

But he prolonged the kiss. His hands moved down my body.

I felt shivers. 

I felt his hands grabbing my breasts.

It messed with my senses in a very disturbing way. 

I quickly moved away from him. 

He stared at me with furrowed brows. 

"Kimberly," 

"I am sorry. I can't do this." 

"Why? What is wrong?" He asked. 

I stared at him, clueless of what to say. 

He heaved a sigh, dropping his gaze. 

I moved the strand of my hair behind my ear. 

"Is he the reason?" He asked. 

I froze. 

I looked at him. 

He is looking at me. 

"Is it because of him?" 

My heart picked up. 

"You are still in love with him, aren't you?" 

I shook my head. "No. I am not." 

"Then why don't you want me to touch you?" 

I dropped my gaze. 

"I want to feel your soft skin against mine. I want to bury myself inside you." 

My heart dropped. 

"I want to have a good time with you. Is that too much to ask?!" He yelled. 

I flinched. 

He heaved a sigh, running his fingers through his hair. 

"Robert..." 

"I will be in the living room." He said, grabbing a pillow and walked away before I could say anything. 

He slammed the door, making me flinch. 

I heaved a sigh, lying on the bed. 

I placed my palm on my temples. 

What is wrong with you, Kim? 

What is wrong with you?! 

I covered my face with my palms, feeling very disappointed in myself. 

"I don't regret making you cum, Kimberly. I will do it over again. Even right now." 

Urgh! 



I opened my eyes, feeling the rays of the sun hitting my face. 

It is a new day already. The sun is not hesitant. I rubbed my eyes with my index finger. 

"Rise and shine," Robert's familiar voice made my heart pick up. 

I sat up and I saw him seated on one of the couch. He is still in his tank top and sweatpants. 

"Good morning," i greeted him. 

"How was your night?" He asked. 

I nodded. "Good." 

"Of course. Your night was good without me next to you." He said, smiling. 

My heart clenched. "Robert, I am sorry for...." 

"What are you sorry for exactly?" He retorted. 

I stared at him. 

"The fact that you prevented me from touching you or the fact that you kept calling that maniac's name in your sleep." 

My heart dropped. 

He raised his brows at me. 

Oh God. I was calling Ernest's name in my sleep? 

"I thought you said you are not in love with him." He said. 

"I am not. I swear." I said, feeling my pounding heart. 

He nodded. "Fine. I believe you. Get up and get ready. We are going out." He said, getting on his feet and walked away. 

I heaved a sigh. 

I can't believe you, Kim. 

Seriously. 



Robert and I walked into a very fancy restaurant called Peaches. The waiter took us to our table and we took our seats. 

The place is very beautiful and shiny. I wonder why he brought me here. 

"Get us some local dishes and red wine, please." Robert said to the waiter. 

"Yes, sir." The waiter said and walked away. 

My eyes roamed the place again. 

"Do you like it?" Robert asked, making me look at him. 

I nodded. "It is very beautiful." I said, smiling. 

"A beautiful place for a beautiful woman." He said, smiling at me. 

I smiled as well. 

He reached for my hand. He held it and placed a kiss on my knuckles. 

I got that weird feeling again. 

"I am sorry for raising my voice last night." He said. 

My heart melted. 

"I understand that you don't want any sexual activity till we are married." He said, looking at me. 

I stared at him. 

"I am going to wait." 

I dropped my gaze. 

"You want me to wait, right?" He asked. 

I nodded slightly. 

"That's what I am going to do. But I have started working on another wedding date." 

I froze. 

He smiled at me. 

"What?" 

"Yes, baby. We will be getting married very soon. And when I say soon, I mean this month." He said, smiling as he placed a kiss on my knuckles. 

Oh God. A new wedding date? And it is this month? 

I forced a smile. 

Something caught my eye behind him. I saw Ernest and Bernie. 

My heart picked up. 

He is dressed in a blue suit, looking handsome and breathtaking as always. 

His locked eyes with mine. 

My heart raced.
