Get Me Married

Chapter 47: Meeting Ava

I woke up when I felt something heavy on my hands and tried to move my head, a sharp pain hit me and so did the rest of my body feel the same pain. I slept in a very uncomfortable position

and it had resulted in why I felt so many pains all over my body. My eyes traveled to my hands that seemed heavy for some reason. Then I saw Genesis holding my arm like it was a pillow that she could cuddle.

I stared at her with relief in my heart before I checked the time. It was already 8:am and I had so many plans for that day. I haven’t been to the office in days and I needed to at least work from home if I didn’t want things collapsing on me. But the first thing in my mind was putting a smile on Genesis’s face, I had to do something I knew she would want, something that would make her extremely happy.

I turned back to the lady who was sleeping so peacefully. I took her hands off mine slowly and got up from where I had laid beside her while resisting the urge to groan. My body ached the moment I got up from where I laid and I couldn’t help but blame myself for not laying down properly.

I tiptoed towards the door and slowly opened it in the quietest way I could do and came out of her room. The guards I had assigned were still standing by the door just as I ordered and bowed the moment I came out.

“Do not let anyone in, I don’t want her to be disturbed” I ordered and walked away.

Down the stairs, I went and saw that Margaret was already setting up breakfast with some other maids along

“Good morning sir” she bowed when she saw me and I gave her a nod. But my eyes lingered on her a little bit more for an odd reason. I had known her since I was very young, she had grown old over the years and had wrinkles on her face. Guilt filled my heart when I thought of how much she had grown in my house while looking after me and in return I paid no attention to her or whatsoever.

“How are you?” I asked her for the first time in a long time and her eyes snapped at me. Her eyes widened at me but she shook it off and looked away, placing her eyes on the floor just like every other staff I had.

“I’m fine…sir” she stuttered.

“Your food…your food is ready” she added and wiped tears off her eyes. She quickly started setting out the dishes and tried all she could to not look at me.

“Never mind about that, I would eat when I return. I just came down to tell you to allow Genesis to sleep for as long as she can, no one should disturb her and go into her room till she wakes up” I gave her the same orders I gave to the guards and she turned to me immediately. The surprised look on her face when I asked about her was the same surprise look she had when I gave her the orders.

When I was done with my bath, I wiped my body cleaned before I wrapped the towel around my waist and came out of the bathroom. The steam that came out from the bathroom filled the room and Samantha was still standing in the position I had left her. I walked over to my wardrobe and picked out a suit I would wear and placed it

I turned to the mirror. She immediately walked up to me and held me from behind while pressing her

to not have a hand in what was happening and even told me she didn’t care about what happened to her. I don’t know why I was remembering everything but those thoughts made me understand that she was lying. She would never have said anything if I didn’t get her myself neither would she have stopped if I didn’t confront her about the truth.
