Jessica’s Pov
I ran downstairs trying to push back the tears. I was never the type that showed her tears or wounds to the outside world but the sh*t that Josh was subjecting me to was very unfair. I felt like I was cursed.
Every time I found something that made me happy, sh*t always came slapping me across the face.
Josh was being very unfair to me, I had been nothing but a supportive wife to him ever since the ordeal began.
How dare he bring back sh*t about my cooking. He never had any problem with the fact that I couldn’t cook but just because his company was plunging, he changed in a few days and became so cruel to me.
He never slept in our matrimonial bedroom. It was always at his office ever since he got discharged from the hospital.
I understood him, someone was trying to destroy him and anyone in his shoes would not find time to sleep until they found the enemy. But he was treating me unfairly and taking his frustrations on me.
He was finding faults in everything that I was doing. Every Time he saw my face I noticed his change in mood.
Deep down I felt like he was blaming me, if I had not insisted on going for the honeymoon he would have seen the attack coming. That was my initial thought. He was just a coward and couldn’t say it to my face.
Victor advised me to give him space and understand him but I was doing all that. But as soon as I bumped into him or asked if he needed anything hell broke. Maybe I needed to move out of the house until he grew a pack of balls.
Speaking about balls, we still couldn’t manage to change the clause and neither were we planning to tell him soon.
Everything was a complete mess, we had no idea where to begin from or how to even gather the energy to tell him the truth. The hell I was going through was not the life that I signed for.
I heard the main door open and I looked through the window. It was Josh heading into a car that I had not seen before.
I quickly ran out of the bathroom to the kitchen and picked my keys. Josh had stopped updating me on anything, Victor made me promise to keep an eye on him because his son did not seem like a person that would make sound decisions.
I quickly got into the car and followed at a safe distance so as not to be detected. The man looked familiar but I could not remember where I saw him.
The two talked in the car for some time before they drove off. I followed them at a safe distance, being careful not to be spotted.
