M.I N.E endless Love

“For how long have you been married to Eduardo?” She asked. Jenny looked at her mother in law. What kind of a woman was this? She greeted her and she wouldn’t answer her greetings.

Her mother in law introduced her to her and she didn’t even give a damn and the only thing she could do was ask her a question how long she’s been married to Eduardo.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Mrs Anderson just focused her eyes on Clara. She didn’t know why Clara doesn’t behave like the adult that she truly is. If she meets Eduardo or Luke, she would say something or behave as if she doesn’t like them.

Her kids usually avoid her as much as they can and she knows it. Now meeting Jenny for the first time, she was putting on such an attitude again. This sister of hers is mean and unfriendly.

“It’s about three months now,”Jenny answered simply. The reason why she was asking, she doesn’t know. She wants to hear what she has to say.

“And are you pregnant yet?” Clara asked next. Her eyes were showing a sinister look. She seemed to be eager to hear her response and say more of what was in her heart.

“No” Jenny replied and Clara squinted, shaking her head. Jenny shrugged, pregnant or not, love making or not, it didn’t really move her but she was living comfortably.

“I presume. It must be difficult for you to be married to a man who is cripple and impotent. I knew what it’s like to be married and the man and he could never make you feel like a woman..” Clara started Taunting Jenny.

Mrs Anderson was uneasy. What kind of a woman is Clara? Who told her that her feeling was Requested or that she was going to be asked. She just wished she would pause right there and be done.

“I’m sorry Aunt, but Eduardo is not impotent. I know it because I am his wife. Who says he cannot make me a woman? He may be on a wheelchair but he is not useless like many of you try to paint him.

And next time, I won’t tolerate it when you speak ill of my husband…” Jenny politely replied and Eduardo’s mother was stunned. Such a perfect answer for people like Clara. She smiled and nodded her head.

Clara was provoked. Who says this girl should contradict her? She even warned her not to say anything about her husband again. So she’s not stupid like she appeared?

” I hope then that your belly Start growing soon?” With a frown face. She was looking at Jenny with an unfriendly stare and the latter felt she was being hostile towards her and her mother in law.

On their way back, Mrs Anderson turned and glanced at Jenny with a smile. She took her hand and said ” Don’t put Clara’s words to heart. And for the way you replied her words, I say thank you for standing by your husband”

She knew that her son probably couldn’t do it. She was told he was having a spinal cord injury and that definitely would affect him. He might never be able to get Jenny pregnant or make her feel like a woman.

“Thank you mother,” Jenny replied. She met the gaze of Mrs Anderson and the two women smiled at each other.

During Lunch, Luke had a date with Betty. He had invited her to come and have lunch with him. Betty was happy, he was going to take responsibility for his actions. His actions, so she made him think.

When the both of them had their lunch, Luke asked her what she wanted and he would do it for her but definitely not marriage. He had someone else he was seeing.

Betty insisted that she was pregnant with his child and cannot have an abortion. Whatever he has to do, he should do because her child cannot be illegitimate.

This was her ticket to sliding in and fixing herself into the Anderson’s family and Luke was saying what she doesn’t want to understand. She must get married to him and that’s her dream and ambition, that’s why she did all she did all these while.

She needs to come into that family and contend with Jenny. She can’t have so much love and affection from her parents in law. She needs to fix herself and that’s exactly where she was heading.

Everything was orchestrated by herself and her mother and now, she wasn’t going to bet the opportunity slip through her fingers.

Luke’s eyes were deeply introverted. So that’s it, that’s what she wants. Marriage? She wants him to marry her hence she came along with her mother to see his elder brother.

“I am not asking you to have an abortion either. But if you insist you want to keep the baby, and it shouldn’t be born as illegitimate, we need to do something else before that dream of yours comes through” Like declared.

“What?” Betty asked, looking up at him instead. What do they need to do? Well anything, she was ready provided she would end up with him.

“Expert in Medical science can perform DNA for the foetus, no matter how young the pregnancy is. So I will want to have the DNA done in a hospital we shall both go together…” Luke was disclosing when Betty swallowed a lump of Saliva.

She definitely knew that Luke and herself had done nothing. She wasn’t pregnant either. It’s her plans and her mother’s to ensure that she squeezed herself into the Anderson’s family.

At the time everyone was going to expect that her baby bump should be protruding, she would wake up one day and claim a miscarriage.

So talking about DNA on a foetus that doesn’t exist was going to be difficult. If he let her go alone, she would falsify a result and bribe anyone working in a hospital to sign it.

But he said they were going together. What will she do now? She needs to see her mother and seek an answer to give but now, this fellow here was going to insist that they go from there.

“… did you hear what I said?” Luke asked, staring at the woman in front of him. He had suppressed his displeasure to come over and have a talk with her but she suddenly trailed off and didn’t hear him ask her a question.

He had asked her twice already and she still didn’t hear him. That attitude of hers is making one suspicious. How can she forget that she’s seated with the man she claimed made her pregnant?

” Betty” this time, Luke raised his voice a little louder and Suddenly, Betty gasped and jerked as she raised her head to look at Luke. She looked embarrassed. In her confused state, she took her cutleries and dug it into the glass of juice before realising what she was doing and took the cutleries out and placed them by the side of the plates.

Luke was surprised and stared at her in a daze. What is wrong with this Betty of a woman? He turned and looked around and saw a few heads turned in their direction and he felt embarrassed too.

” Are you alright?” He asked between gritted teeth. What sort of nonsense was this? He had summoned up a great courage to have lunch with her for the sole purpose of discussing the so-called pregnancy she had.

His brother had instructed that he meet with her and talk things over before bringing the report to him. He would then see if he should approve of their decision or give them a suggestion on what would be better.

” Were you talking to me?” Betty asked a rhetorical question. Of course she knew he talked with her. Asking him the question now would be annoying.

” What did you say to my proposal?” Luke asked. He was never going to waste his time with someone looking ke Betty. Asking him if he asked her a question.

No, it wasn’t a question, he was singing to her. He’s expression was cold and Betty knew that she was now behaving annoyingly.

“I wasn’t listening, can you tell me again what you said?” She asked. Luke sighed audibly and pinched the bridge between his eyes, an action that was identical to Eduardo’s.

That evening, when Eduardo returned home, Jenny told him about her shopping with his mother and how they came across his aunt Clara.

At the mention of Clara, Eduardo became interested and asked her hurriedly “I hope she didn’t annoy you with her unreasonable utterances?”. He looked at her and saw Jenny chuckled.

He knew it. That Aunt of his, he disliked her and totally tried avoiding her. She wondered how his mother coped with her all these years. He grew up knowing she’s not the kind hearted aunt most nephews dream of having.

“Oh, you already know your aunt’s personality. She’s so annoying and provocative” Jenny flippantly answered, sipping from the coffee in front of her.

“What did she say this time?” Eduardo asked. The last time he saw her, she didn’t even sympathise nor pity him on a wheelchair. Rather she asked him if it’s true he had become impotent?

What had his sexual life hotvyo do with her. And the most annoying part of it was that she turned to her sister, his own mother and told her they were going to end up the same then.

She was married but never conceived. Later she divorced her husband and remained unmarried. Who was going to marry such a bad Belle woman? She’s so terrible.

” Has she been saying things in the past?” Jenny threw him back a question and Eduardo chuckled softly and nodded. ” She was worried about my impotency. She might show her mockery concern that your husband is impotent and cannot meet your desire..” Eduardo was saying when Jenny snapped her head up and stared at him.

Eduardo paused and shrugged. Looks like His Aunt hadn’t changed at all. She must have said such words to Jenny too.

“Huh… you really know who you have” Jenny commented and sipped again from the coffee. She didn’t want to say it, but she didn’t know Eduardo already knew what she’s concern about.

” Yeah. She told mum that they were going to be the same at the end. She never had a child and telling my mom that means she was eventually going to be childless like her. Isn’t that malicious to say to one’s sister?” Eduardo sounded unhappy.

Jenny stared at Eduardo. His aunt said that to her own sister? What does that mean? She and her sister were never going to be the same. Eduardo can choose to adopt or go for surrogacy.

If he was indeed impotent, he might still be able to produce sperm cells to aid surrogacy. Why would his Aunt say that to her sister? That woman is mean and mischievous.

She knew the moment she saw her that she’s a terrible person. No wonder she was asking her if she’s pregnant. When she said no, she then went ahead to talk about her husband’s inability to perform as a man.

” You didn’t think there’s more to what she said Eduardo? She asked me if I was pregnant and I said no. She then began to talk nonsense. Don’t you think you should be wary of such people?

If she has a chance, she’s definitely going to harm you and your mother if not the entire family. You need to watch out for her…

Eduardo suddenly became conscious of Jenny’s words. The person who was after them, that gangster said, was someone close to him. Could it be aunt Clara?
