The Sealed Forgiveness 4
“How can a simple request that had to do with her grandchildren make her angry for so long?”
Afterwards, he slept off. Meanwhile, when Mrs. Nichole Bailey had called several times, she paused and waited for a returned call from him. So, she mustered courage and carried on with her work. After two hours, she discovered that nobody called her, not even Mrs. Elsie Wood.
“Mrs. Wood must have concluded that I failed her. Giving her a call would not make any meaning until I hear from my husband.”
She concluded. At 3:30 Pm, she left for her husband’s office.
“Good to see you, Madam.”
The security guard at the gate greeted when she arrived at the gate. Then, to ensure that she was not embarking on a fruitless trip, asked
“Good to see you, officer. Has your boss gone?”
“No. Madam. He is still around.”
“It is okay.”
She drove in with a relief. She got to the parking lot and parked at Sir, Denise Bailey’s stand. Furthermore, she got off and concealed her anxiety before she walked into the Administrative Block. Likewise, she exchanged greetings with the staff members who were already off work. When she got to Mrs. Felix’s office, she halted and greeted.
“Wow! Good to see you, Mrs. Bailey.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Felix. How is work?”
“Work is fine. As you can see, we are done for the day.”
“And for the week. Have a lovely weekend.”
“Yes. Have a pleasant weekend, too.”
Now, apart from the security guards at the entrance, all the Administrative Block staff members had gone. Now, to Mrs. Nichole Bailey’s good luck, her husband’s office door was not locked. So, she turned the knob gently and when the door opened, she stretched her neck in. To her disappointment, her husband was not on his desk. Now, she began to experience a nervous feeling in her stomach. She walked in and shut the door behind her before she looked around and saw him sleeping tight on the couch. Then, she tiptoed to the couch and admired him for a while before she sat beside him. Then, he stopped breathing when he felt someone’s presence. Gradually, he opened his eyes and saw his wife.
“What are you doing in my office?”
He yelled as he attempted to get up. But his wife covered his mouth with her hand and advised.
“Shhhh. Your workers are around, and they could hear you.”
He quickly removed her hand from his mouth and ordered.
“Leave my office, Nichole, and go to your work.”
Now, he had sat up and was sitting on the couch, but Nichole tried to stop him from getting up. How could she ever think of stopping Mr. Arthur Bailey when he is angry? However, he got up angrily, and she stood up too and held his waist from the back with her two hands locked in front of him.
“Arthur, I am ready to do whatever you asked me to do?”
Now, he angrily separated her two hands and flung them away. To his regret, his wife staggered backward and slumped on the couch with a bang, and she let out a scream.
“My back.”
Now, Mr. Arthur Bailey turned and squatted at once.
“Nichole, are you alright?”
He asked as he tried to attend to her. Mrs. Nichole took advantage of his sympathy and squirmed.
“Arthur, why?”
“I am sorry, my dear. I did not wish to hurt you.”
Now, he stood up, sat beside her on the couch and rubbed her aching back. Afterwards, he asked.
“Are you okay or do you need to see the doctor?”
She took a deep breath and rested her head on the armrest of the couch and allowed her tears to flow freely. Now, the confused Mr. Arthur Bailey mistook her tears to come from the pain on her back as a result of the push, leaned closer to her face tried to dry her tears. Then, she pulled him closer and gave him a quick kiss, which he resisted.
“Arthur, please pardon me. I will do whatever you want me to do.”
Likewise, he bent his head and looked down, while Nichole stood up, held him on the shoulder and pleaded.
“I have seen reason with you. Pardon my selfishness.”
Then, he spoke with emotional voice.
“Nichole, can you afford to bury any of your children or grandchildren?”
“Arthur, don’t think of it. I need your help to make it up for Denise and Angel.”
Meanwhile, Nichole was sobbing profusely, and he was touched. He pulled her closer and pacified.
“Stop crying. I am glad that you have seen reason with me.”
(Kiss)
(Kiss)
He slipped his hand into her breast as he continued kissing her.
“I miss your love, Nichole.”
“I miss you too. My Prince Charming.”
Now, she began to unbutton his shirt while he looked at her beautiful and craving face. Then, he whispered.
“I feel the same way you feel. Can we wait until we get home?”
“I can’t wait.”
He smiled and kiss her lips and reminded her.
“We are in the office.”
“We are safe. Your workers are gone.”
At last, they satisfied each other and afterwards, they dressed up. Then, Nichole pleaded.
“I would love to visit Denise.”
“Don’t bother yourself. Let us meet them at the Island.”
“The Island?”
“Yes. He took his family on holiday.”
“Are we going there now?”
“Yes. I will get Freya to come too if it is convenient for them.”
At the Tourist Center.
Denise and his family got to the Island at 3 Pm. They watch their children playing around and could not wish for anything more.
“I love you, My Lady.”
“I bless the day I met you.”
“Louis called this morning.”
Sir Denise Bailey pointed out and watched her reaction. She gave a sincere smile and inquired.
“That is good. Why have you not invited him to our house, or do you want me to do that?”
“I have. Maybe he is still uncomfortable in your presence.”
“I have forgiven him. Does it mean he had not forgiven me?”
“On the contrary. I feel he had not forgiven himself.”
