Mummy I got you a new husband

SOPHIE’S POV

” I have to deal with this.” I mumbled as I rushed out of the house, my heart pounded with anxiety. I didn’t want anyone see me leave the house, so I called the Security around to help me check something at the backyard. As he went off to check it, I raced out of the house and hurried to meet Eddy.

The ride I booked arrived and I got in hurrily trying to avoid anyone seeing me leave the house. I wanted to return back, just before anyone noticed my absence and before Karl returned.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

My mind buzzed wondering what to do about Eddy. His plan to reveal everything was going to annul the contract and I couldn’t have that. At least not yet. I needed money for my daughter’s future and Eddy was not going to ruin my plans.

I had a perfect plan, hoping nothing goes wrong and that Eddy had not done anything stupid yet, I hurried the driver to take me to his address to meet him. I hoped that for both our sakes he had not gone off to Karl or was he already there like his message said?” I wondered, as we drove down to his house. My heart was pounding so fiercely that it seemed like it was going to fall out of my chest. I was not sure how to modify Eddy’s choice, but I knew I had to do it or everything would be ruined.

I knew Eddy many years ago when I worked with his company as a secretary before my job at the mall. We became close and at one time became emotionally attached to me and requested for a relationship which I turned down because I wasnt ready for a relationship.

When I first messaged him about Karl divorce, he was reluctant to publish the story but I had assured him of it authencity and he agreed to do it not knowing I had a plan to use it to my advantage at the end. Eddy had paid a good sum of money for the story, little did he know he was a piece of my big plan.

” What was I going to say to him?” I muttered questioning myself about how I intended to change Eddy’s mind. I decided it was best to call him first to be sure if he was home.

I dialled his number and the phone rang with no response, Sweat trickled down my forehead as I dialed his number over and over again, but each call went unanswered. Panic started to creep in, and a sinking feeling settled in my gut. Something was definitely wrong. I knew there was trouble when he didn’t pick despite my calls.

Without wasting another second, I sprinted down as soon as the car came to a halt at Eddy’s house. The wind rushed past my face, matching the frantic beating of my heart. Fear and worry mingled in my thoughts as I replayed the unanswered calls in my mind. ” What if he had told Karl everything like he said he would?” I asked myself and quickly dismissed the response as I didn’t want to think about what the outcome would be.

As I got to his house, I knocked repeatedly with no one answering the door. I approached the window to see whether anyone was inside, but there appeared to be no one. When I twisted the doorknob to check the door, I noticed that it was open.

” What do I do now? I questioned myself unsure of what to do. As I stood wondering what to do about what had happened I noticed an ambulance drive up to Eddy’s apartment.

A sense of dread washed over me when I saw an ambulance drive towards Eddy’s house. My pace quickened, adrenaline coursing through my veins.

” How could they come so quickly? Who informed them?” I asked as I walked to the corner of the house. Not wanting to be a part of any issues and raising suspicions, I hide myself and watch all that was happening from the corner.

Just then the paramedics rushed into Eddy flat and wheeled him out on a stretcher. Panic gripped my chest, and I desperately muttered his name.” Eddy” My heart shattered at the sight of him, but I knew I had to stay strong and hide myself so no one saw me.

” I hope he isn’t hurt?” I mumbled again as I watched the paramedics hurriedly loaded him into the ambulance and rushed him to the hospital.

I wasn’t sure about his health but I hope he was fine. As the sirens blared and the ambulance raced through the city streets, I came out of my hiding place and rushed to get a cab and head home.” I really hope he gets better.” I mumbled as I worried about Eddy health.

Just as I was ready to leave the premises to board the cab that had arrived to pick me up, I spotted the officers approaching, and my heart skipped a beat, so I rushed into the cab and told the driver kor to drive till they had inside Eddy’s house.

” I hope they didn’t see me?” I muttered as I hurried to enter the taxi, I worried if they saw me leave Eddy’s house and as soon as they were in, I asked the driver to zoom off.

“Oh gosh. What am I supposed to do now?” I hope Karl isn’t home yet. I grumbled as I got into the cab, my mind flashed back to the events of moment ago. I wished I didn’t go to Eddy house as my heart filled with worry and desperation. My thoughts soon drifted to Karl, I had lied about a robbery and wasn’t even home. ” How was I supposed to explain all of this?” I grumbled as we headed back home. I need a perfect excuse for not being at the house after I claimed there was a robbery.

” What was I supposed to do now?” I pondered in my thoughts as we drove home. ” I have to come up with a plan and fast too.”
