Threatened

When Vivienne finally opened her eyes, They fell on the white ceiling above. For a second, she thought she was no longer alive.

No one was in the room with her but the deep scent of Starling’s Colon lingered in the room.

Vivienne touched her body but everything was intact. None of her dresses were tampered with, Her face scarf was still there and…

She checked down there but no pain or anything that would show something happened down there.

“ Thank Goodness” She sighed of relief, Patting her chest.

But how she got in to that room , She didn’t know. She still felt a slight headache from getting hit on the bed.

The room wasn’t the same with the one that fool wanted to take advantage of her in.

Whoever saved her from him, Vivienne was grateful to him or her and she promised to repay them kindly when their path crossed one day.

“ Oh no!” She exclaimed when she checked the time. It was already getting late in the night and her husband would be waiting for her at home.

Sebastian always closed from the company early and wouldn’t stay at another place even for a second. His next place to go to after work was always home.

But who knows, he might be hanging out with his Girls since he has already subscribed in to Adultery.

She hurried out of the bed, Put on her shoes which lay on the floor and straightened her skirt which was now squeezed.

“ People will think I did something in here” She sighed worriedly. “ As long as My face stays Hidden, no one will recognize me” She took in a deep breath before stepping out of the room.

She made sure no one was on the corridor before she stepped out completely.

Vivienne hurried down the stairs, ignoring to take the elevator as she was afraid she might bump in to that stupid jerk in the elevator.

When She arrived home , Sebastian and his Mum were already in the living room as usual. She wished they weren’t in the living room at that moment because that old woman wouldn’t spare her.

“ You decided to return now, right?” She threw an angry look at her immediately she closed the door behind her.

“ Sebastian, I’ve already told you to get rid of this woman. There are other women out there who deserve you” His Mum said for the second time that day.

Sebastian didn’t say a word, he only smiled and diverted his attention to Vivienne who stayed rooted on a spot.

“ You this adulterer. This is why you’ve failed to conceive!” She scolded Vivienne. “ Other girls that got marriage last month are already pregnant but here you are, wandering around and sleeping with men.” She paused.

“ And it isn’t like my son isn’t capable, He is a man!” She raised her voice. Still, Sebastian didn’t say anything.

Vivienne sighed inside. If only the woman knew what she passed through that day. Her head still ached and the way she was shouting was adding to the headache.

“ I’ll go in now, Mother in-law” She bowed her head and walked away.

“ See? She can’t even call me Mother. She’s always referring to me as Mother in-law. You have to do something about this, Sebastian”

Vivienne could hear all she was saying to Sebastian because their room was downstairs right in the living room.

She wanted the room upstairs when they got married but because Sebastian’s Mum wanted them to stay downstairs together with her, she didn’t argue.

After all, Sebastian’s Mum was like her own Mum.

“ How dare you!” He closed the door but before she could turn around, He pushed her to the wardrobe and pinned her there, holding her neck.

“ Do you have any idea how Much I was going to earn from that contract? That man owns the biggest Textile Company in this city. And partnering with My company is going to change my fortune!” He gnarled at her.

Vivienne tried to release his hand from her Neck but he wouldn’t let her go.

“ Sebastian, stop” She managed to say but he pinned her harder. When he saw that she was losing her breath, He released her neck.

“ Do you know what that man did to me?” She fell on her knees, Trying to catch a breath.

He already knew what happened there and he didn’t care what she was going to say.

“ Why would you send me to that kind of a place, Sebastian? You already know what sort of a place that is but you went ahead to humiliate me” She sniffed.

“ What if that man got what he wanted with me today? What do you think will be my fate?” She sobbed.

“ I don’t care!” he shouted at her.

Vivienne was taken aback. He didn’t care, he wanted that for her and he was angry that she didn’t do as he wanted?

“ You are going back to that Hotel tomorrow to finish that contract agreement” he turned his back on her.

Hearing that, Vivienne lifted up her head. He was going to send her back there after she was being saved by a good Samaritan?

“ No” She shook her head. Sebastian turned around, he went to where she was sitting on the floor and lowered himself.

He grabbed her chin up, Looking in to her eyes angrily.

“ Either you like it or not, You are going back there tomorrow. And if you don’t go…” He released Her chin then stood upright on his feet.

“ Then I’m going to divorce you” He threatened. Sebastian knew Divorce was one of the things Vivienne was Always scared of.

And he knew that since the first day they started dating. She told him she hate being Divorced and he promised her he wouldn’t do that.

Because her parents got divorced when she was a little girl, She was raised up by her bitter minded paternal Granma . She could swear that woman detested her a lot.

Because she treated her badly and she didn’t tell her to stay at home when she brought up the topic of becoming an actress.

“ No, you can’t” She shook her head, looking at him with tears on her face.

“ Then you’ll have to go back there to complete that or else, we are getting divorced tomorrow and nothing will be put in your name” He threatened her.

“ The choice is yours” He stormed out of the room , leaving her devastated.

How would she go back to the hands of a man that’s going to ruin her image? Why would the man she loves send her to commit adultery because of Fame and wealth?

This wasn’t what she signed for, No. This wasn’t what they promised each other when they exchanged their wedding vows.

“ I can’t do this” Vivienne cried but covered her mouth. “ You can punish me with any other thing but this isn’t right. I’m Married, I don’t want to engage in to this” She sniffled.
