The Wife I Never Met
Chapter 35

“don’t look at me like that, I’m perfectly fine please trust me.”

How could they possibly trust her when they had witnessed first hand what she went through with Dex. They didn’t want that for her, especially to go through it alone. They are here to support her, and right at this moment they needed her out of that man’s house, before any more damage could be done.

“Be honest Ciara, how can we trust that you are fine when we saw what you went through with Dex, that man broke your heart in to pieces. Now we can’t allow Liam to turn those pieces in to crumbles.” at this moment Stacey was doing all the talking while Lisa was brushing Ciara’s back as if she was indeed heartbroken.

” I understand, and thank you so much for your concern but I know Liam he wouldn’t do that to me, I trust that he wouldn’t stoop so low as to look for another woman while he is still married to me. So I’m not going any where.”

“naaah ahh, CiCi you can’t do that to yourself. For once please put yourself first and think about your happiness. This!… Whatever it is that you are doing wouldn’t end well.”

Ciara could just tell them about her relationship with Annie, and the fact that Annie wasn’t interested in men but it was truly not her place to do so. Annie’s sexuality had been kept a secret for the longest of time so at this very moment, she just couldn’t clear Liam’s name by just telling the truth. She had to play dumb.

“well my love for him is enough for me to trust that he is innocent. That picture doesn’t mean anything at all.”

They sighed, they both know very well how stubborn Ciara can get, so it would be best to leave her in this love bubble she was in and when the time comes they will be there to be her shoulder to cry on and pickup all the pieces. They all sat in silence, munching on the tea and biscuits that Ms Nicky had served them earlier.

At that moment the sweaty Liam had returned from his morning jog, so when he passed the living room he nodded toward the girls, he was greeting them, but they all gave him was a cold shoulder except for Ciara who gave him an apologetic stare. She was sorry for how her friends were behaving. But Liam didn’t mind at all, to him this showed how supportive and caring her friends were. So no matter whatever happens to Ciara in the future he knows the people who got her back and who will stand by her side despite any challenges.

So when he saw the apologetic stare from Ciara he returned a reassuring smile, meaning that he did not mind at all.

But the other two did mind and did not want to spend a minute longer in the same house as that man, so they said their good byes and left the villa hoping that Liam would stop toying with their friend.

After they had left Ciara also went upstairs to take her shower and get ready for the day. Today was the year end function for the Jones group, all the staff was invited and so was the wife of the president. Although she’ll be attending the party, she wasn’t going there as Liam’s wife but just an invited guest like her uncle the Mayor. They had agreed to keep a low profile and that’s exactly what they were planning to do at the party.

Liam left first he needed to go to the company and sort out his work for the day before going to the party which was later on in the day. So he had some time to finish up.

Ciara on the other hand used her time to visit a hair salon, it was one of the best in town and it had been a wish of hers to go there one day. Today was that day, she decided to bite the bullet and pay for that expensive hair treatment.

When she got there the hair stylist suggested that she do false locks with a blond highlight. She believed it will complement her skin color best, and that’s what she ended up going for. Once that was taken care of, they then moved to a mani and pedi Station where they did magic on her nails. When all was done she looked like a completely different person. One glance at her and one would know that she came from a prestigious family or had a pampering husband.

She stood up and was led to the big wall mirror in the salon and everyone who looked at her were left in awe. She was indeed beautiful, everything looked perfect on her. Now the only thing that was missing was a dress, which she had completely forgotten about. She turned a little just to look at herself in every angle possible.

She then walked out intending to get something light to eat on the go, so as she walked down the street all eyes were on her and it kind of freaked her a little. She wasn’t sure whether the style was mediocre and they were disgusted by the bright color she went for or the looks were because the hairstyle simply looked cute.

As uncomfortable as she was, she still walked to the food stall to get herself something to eat, she just had to endure it.
