Get Me Married

Chapter 44: Jordan’s dilemma

I turned around and was unable to look at Jordan as his accusing gaze pierced into my skin.

“What…” Came his voice and I felt like disappearing immediately. I realized that I shouldn’t have said a thing, but he had said he would help me if only he knew the truth. It made me feel like he would understand me and help me. But the look he had on his face suddenly made me think otherwise.

“Uhmmm..”

“You just said that you did this for us,” he said and came closer to me.

“No…I didn’t…I meant…” I stuttered and I knew I was doing a bad job for a criminal mastermind just like myself but I couldn’t find anything reasonable to say and feeling Jordan’s eyes on me made it worse.

“Samantha” he growled and I flinched. I hated when he was this way, he knew how to scare me whenever he was like this. And he knew how to get the truth out of me most times. Jordan was my friend and we have been lovers since my childhood. I didn’t love him but he knew how to get to me too.

I turned back to him and he started walking towards me till he was standing right in front of me. Then he took my hands in his and placed a kiss on the back of my hands.

“What do you mean by you did it for us?” His voice was calming, more than I expected as he looked into my eyes. I stared right back at him as I searched his for any trace of anger or annoyance and found nothing. Though I expected him to be angry already since he had a short temper. It made me relaxed and thought it would be a good idea to tell him. At least he would be able to finally understand the extent I was going to go to get Genesis out of our lives so he could be mine completely just as he had always been. I immediately started fake crying and sniffing loudly like I was in extreme pain.

“I don’t want to lose you,” I said and sniffed again. He let go of my hand and placed his hands on both sides of my arm.

“No, don’t say that. You won’t lose me,” he said comfortingly.

“Yes I will, once you find out the truth you will send me packing” I cried and shrugged his arms away from me before walking towards the bed. All I was doing was to make sure my spot would be secured in that house. I knew he loved me and just needed to be sure that no matter what he wouldn’t throw me out.

“Sam…” He came closer to me and sat beside me on the bed.

“Just tell me, I love you and won’t want to lose you too,” he said and took my hand in his again while the other held chin and made me turn to him. I avoided his eyes and cried more before squeezing his hands gently.

I would never believe that she could be able to hurt a fly but knowing she had hurt Genesis and pretended so well like she didn’t have shook me to the brim. Did I know Sam? I mean she watched Genesis go through a lot, I hated her but I couldn’t stand watch and see her go through the things she went through. But Sam did and didn’t show any remorse. Genesis had been right all along and had lived with a criminal in my own house. I didn’t just feel hurt, I felt betrayed and stupid. She had lie to me, knowing that I hated lies and had deceived me.
