"And we meet again Vee Vee . " That familiar voice snapped me out of my disturbing thoughts .
The encounter I"ve been dreading for years is about to happen, G.o.d help me .
I turned around slowly to meet his gaze, he was smiling like the idiot he is .
"It"s Mrs . Brown to you, b.a.s.t.a.r.d . " I sneered and he laughed in a way that made me even more nervous .
"So because you"re married to a certain loser, I should address you as Mrs . Brown?, how pathetic . " My anger flared at that, calling Ry a loser is way out of line .
"I am warning you Kelvin, you lost the right to interfere in my life the moment you fired a shot my way, and for your information, that loser saved my life and gave me hope while you were being a p.r.i.c.k and desperately covering up your crimes so don"t you dare say a word about him . " I warned with my finger wagging at him and he chuckled confidently .
" Of course Mrs . Brown . " He said with sarcasm evident in his voice .
"That"s not why I am here though, you can ride any d.i.c.k you want to, that"s your ill luck and not mine . " He adds and I felt like strangling him .
"So why are you here Kelvin?" I asked, trying as much as possible to control my anger . His next words knocked me out of my feet . Figuratively and almost literally .
"I want custody Vee . " His expression was grim enough to show his seriousness . I quickly collected myself and met his gaze .
"Custody of what?, land?, or my house?, or my business?, tell me . What do you want custody for?" I asked, feigning ignorance . There wasn"t much I could do, I knew he would figure it all out the moment he sees Dayo . One thing was sure though, I wasn"t going to allow him s.n.a.t.c.h my child away from me .
"Our child Vee, stop playing dumb . I"m in no mood for games . "
"What child Kelvin?, the child that would have died with me on that night four years ago?, Dayo is my child and she"s not going anywhere near you p.r.i.c.k . If you want to fight for custody, you can as well go ahead, we"ll see who the judge gives custody to . An irresponsible parent that almost had the mother killed, or the parent that has showered the kid with nothing but love . " He smiled wryly at my pretty little speech .
"Who are you kidding Vee?, you think I"ll go through the long process of the law to take what"s rightfully mine?, you should already know by now that I have other means of getting all I want . The least you can do is to come with me, I can get rid of that pain of a wife and we"ll start a new life, as a family . " He said and I laughed . Laughed that it startled him .
"You"re joking Kelvin, I would die a hundred times than to let you touch me or Dayo . "
"We both know you belong with me Vee, don"t deny you still love me . " What?
"You are very high on imaginations Kelvin, keep dreaming . I"ll dutifully a.s.sure you that it"ll never come true . " I sneered and he chuckled as if dismissing my claims .
"We"ll see Vee, we"ll see . " I was about to warn him again when Ry walked in with his usual grace .
"Everything okay in here?" He asked warily .
"Of course Mr . Brown, I have a creepy feeling that your wife here is not happy with our partnership . " He said slyly and Ry looked over at me .
"Of course that"s not true, is it Vee?" Poor Ry, f.u.c.king poor Ry .
"Of course not Ry, I"m the happiest at this arrangement . " I said with sarcasm dripping from every . one of my words .
"See?, I told you already . My wife is a very supportive woman . " Ry beams with pleasure .
"I hope so too Mr . Brown . " He smiled and walked out of the kitchen with Ry hot on his tail . Oh . dear! what do I do?
Kelvin left not long after our encounter, after cleaning up after the guests, I marched upstairs to talk to Ry . It was a now or never situation . Thankfully, I found him in our room, undressing .
"Ry, I need to talk to you . " I began cautiously, Ry went out of his way to please Kelvin earlier, that means something was up . I . had to tread carefully on the path full of loop holes .
"I"m all ears, but be quick about it . " He said when I sat on the bed .
"It"s about your business partner, Kelvin . " He looked sharply at me before unbuckling his belt .
"Before you say anything I want to tell you something as well . " OK so it was going to be much more difficult than I thought . I swallowed hard before mumbling
"I"m listening . . Ry . "
