The Next Wife novel Chapter 59

Dave groaned in pain and fury as he walked into his house. He was extremely frustrated due to the pain of Jayda hitting him. He was furious because he wanted to possess her. Jayda wasn't just a friend to him, she was like a possession that he wanted to devour.

"And where are you coming from?" Dave's girlfriend, Cora, asked. She was leaning against a wall with a mug of coffee in her hand.

"Cora, hi." He replied grimly as he frowned.

Cora, noticing his attitude, dropped her mug of coffee on a stand then walked over to him. "What happened?" She noticed the bloodstains and mark on him.

"It's nothing." He gruffed. Cora was Dave's girlfriend but she was only a distraction to him. Even though he hadn't deeply felt Jayda, he knew that she was going to pleasure him more than Cora could ever do. Their relationship was like a secret to everyone, as instructed by Dave. He loved her so much as well but his obsession over Jayda always got into him.

"Are you kidding me? Nothing? You're injured?" She held his chin to scan his face.

"Ouch!" He grumbled as she touched his face.

"Gosh, you'll be fucking kidding me if you say nothing happened." She spat, frowning. She was feeling concerned.

"Well... you know my friend who I said is very sick and might probably die soon, as stated by her?" Dave said with a calmer tone, scratching the back of his neck.

"Yeah? The one whose identity you refuse to reveal to me but is a female?" She asked rhetorically with a sarcastic smile. "Go on."

"Yes. I was only playing with her child then she almost got hurt and I prevented her from getting hurt which resulted in me getting hurt." He easily cooked up that lie.

"Awwww, that's so cute. That's why I love you." Cora grinned, placing her arms on his shoulders and her hands behind his head. She kissed him on his lips with so much love for him dwelling inside of her.

Dave felt quite guilty at the moment that Cora loved him so much but she was only a distraction from Jayda. He could do the things he wanted to do with her, the things he couldn't do with Jayda.

Fred had carried Jayda in his arms then kept her in his car. As he was driving her to the hospital, he couldn't stop staring at her and admiring the beautiful piece of wonder that was sitting in his car. His heart was swollen at the sight of her.

Fred wondered how she was still able to affect him this much.

He rushed her to the hospital. He was very scared that the Doctor was going to say she was pregnant but that wasn't it. He only said she fainted due to stress.

"Can I go see her now?" His heart was about to explode at the thought of seeing Jayda any second from now. He couldn't believe that his love for her could still make him feel so crazy, after these years.

"You never searched for me." She said in a whisper but it sounded flirtatious.

"Are you kidding me? I went extra miles to look for you but I never got a positive result. I came here for a business in one of our companies here but I never expected to cross paths with you here." He retorted.

Jayda had always imagined herself yelling at him and saying hateful words that were going to make him leave her if she met him. But her reaction was nothing compared to that. She missed him as much as he missed her.

Slowly, their faces drew closer till their lips connected. He held her back and her face while she held his hair as they kissed like never before.

They both separated from the kiss. "I've missed you. Why did you leave me?" He placed his forehead on hers with his hands on her cheeks. "Don't ever leave me, promise?"

Jayda was choked with her tears and couldn't talk anymore. She was fighting with herself that it wasn't right to get intimate with him in any way but her heart, soul, spirit, body was opposing those thoughts. She wanted to have all of him at the instant.

"I'm sorry." She apologized sheepishly, not believing herself. Guess she followed her heart then.

"Where do you live? How do I get to see you everyday again? When can we meet? How can we have some alone time? Tell me everything that has happened within these two years." He said in one breath. It seemed like he was being rushy but he didn't care. All he wanted was to have his Jayda back.
