Married to my nemesis-Chapter 162: Scared

"Vixen, why does it taste bad?" She said as she squinched her face seeing Vixen excited expression, he couldn’t help but laugh seeing the way she formed her face.

As much as Abi had the urge to scold him for tricking her, sje couldn’t help but stop herself from articulating words, all she could do was stop to stare at his happy mood.

Something that made him elated and it didn’t have to involve Arthur.

For some unknown reasons she felt touched by his mood, she felt connected and deep stated like she wanted to experience the happiness with him.

She pouted her lips as Vixen took a sit on his stool.

"I’m so sorry but then tell me, what other way could I have convinced you to take the pill?" He said still laughing.

"You could have done something—" she paused to think of something that would have been excusable for his actions.

"You could have added some sugar." She suggested.

" But I had no sugar with me, I could have thought of asking the syrup but you need strength at the moment, so that’s why I had to block your nose so you wouldn’t be able to perceive and notice that is bitter immediately. "

As much as she wanted to say something to retaliate against his words, she couldn’t help but admit that he was right after all.

How would she able to take something which she felt was bitter and likewise, she knew that it was the job of the nurses to come assist her but then, she was concerned, it was dark and the mood of view was sleepy, so there was no need calling a nurse who would come to give her the syrup.

As much as she wanted to deny the fact, it kinda made her feel like a silly person.

"You’re right— but then you cheated me, big time, you could have told me that you were going to do that process instead. "

" Oh really? Maybe then I’ll consider telling you that so it would take minutes for me to convince you to take the mixture, " for some reasons Vixen was making her feel like she was a small child.

Anyhow, she didn’t like that she was tricked.

The next moment between the both of them was silence, no body said a word but Vixen was in thoughts, after what had happened earlier, he was planning on asking her what she wanted to say.

"Abi—" he gently called out to her as she turned her gaze to meet him.

He felt hesitant a bit, like what he was about to do was going to cost him a lot.

And maybe it was going to cost him a lot, he was going to rekindle the memories about what had happened.

"Actually, when we were in the room. I... I really wasn’t able to hear out what you wanted to say, I didn’t give you the chance to speak so, do you mind telling me what you were planning to say."

"Oh," she said a bit speechless, she didn’t know what she was going to say, but some how —

"Is something about the past, Vixen, you said that you didn’t want to talk about the matter so I don’t think there’s any reason for me to tell you."

"But I really want to know, I want to know what you we’re trying to say, because of what happened I was not to hear from you."

"There’s no need, Vixen. If the matter is about your wife then i don’t think that there’s a chance for you to remember those memories. "

Vixen was silent for a while but his expression, his expression was neutral and then she heaved a deep breath, she sat appropriately on the bed wondering what had happened to him all of a sudden.

All she got was that she got bitten by a snake but then the matter of the truth was that she couldn’t believe that he would actually come and tell her this.

"Vixen, to be fair about my words, are you sure that you would want to hear what I’m going to say?"

He nodded.

"Actually, when I was a little girl, my mother, my mother ran away from me. I had so many thoughts about who my mother was, I always hated her for years thinking that she did it on purpose but then, when I found her back, I wasn’t given the chance to spend time with her. It seems like just like my parents, they are destined not to spend a long time with me. "

" Why do you say that? "

" Hmmm, when I discovered my mother when I grew older, I couldn’t understand anything. What I mean is that, I had so much hatred I couldn’t process whether she is coming into my life after what she had done, she abandoned me and left me to wonder who she was, I hated my mother because she made my father worried, she made my father beckon about her without even being around. I felt guilty because I thought the case might be because of me, I was just a small child and I thought that I was the reason but when I grew up and grew close to her, I discovered that my mother actually left me because my father decided to sleep with another woman. She found out that the woman that I claimed was my aunt was actually the woman who my father slept with, I couldn’t believe it and before I could rekindle the love I had with my mother and make amends of everything, she got into an accident and in the process, my mother became sick. Severely sick even after coming back from the hospital, I visited her daily and asked the doctor what had happened to her. From there I discovered my mother suffered from the accident. I took my time to take care of her, I tried to be with her but then it was useless, the time I took care of her made nothing out of me and I watched her die. I couldn’t forgive my father for what he had done, because of him, I missed what could be dear to me in my entire life, I lost my mother. That’s what I don’t want for Arthur, I don’t want Arthur to hate his mother and then make me look like his mother, if he wants to know about who his mother is then I think you should just tell him who his mother is, I’m not his mother. He has his mother and when he knows who his mother is, I think is best for you to make him decide whether he will choose me or his mother, no matter the choice, I want him to know that his mother loves him."

" And what if he chooses her over you? "

" As much as I’m going to think about it, Vixen, I don’t think that I’ll feel so hurt since I know that he’s doing it because he loves his mother. And she could come back to his life—"

" But she would only be in memories," Vixen interrupted placing a frown on her face.

" What do you mean by that? "

" I mean that Arthur wouldn’t be able to meet his mother. If really you’re so concerned about the fact that he might be separated from his mother and he might think you’re the villain of his life, I think is best you know really what happened to his mother."

" Really, what happened to his mother? "

Vixen didn’t say a word for a while, he was silent and then his memories were on what had happened before.

The letter.

He grew so cold and silent for a while and then he turned to her like nothing had happened.

" Is nothing, you said that if he wants to discover who his mother is then he should know. When the time comes then I promise, I’m going to tell him everything that he needs to know. " 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

He stated patiently but then she was worried about his words, why was she going to be in his memories instead?

What had happened to her?

Just as she was about to speak further about their conversation, he was quick to dodge the topic.

" So about your father, you were worried and spoke about your father when we at house. "

" Papa? What do you want to know about him? "

" Your father is weak and sick after what had happened right?"

" He wasn’t just weak, he was in a bad shape he had a nearly had stroke when he discovered everything. And truth be told, is being a long while since I had heard of him. "

" Isn’t he at the hospital? "

" Actually, I was scared that my father may have to suffer a lot because of the environment of the hospital so I took him the countryside, I had to take him back to my home town and appoint maids and nurses who were going to make sure he’s okay. "
