After Divorce I Became A Zillionaire

Montana

After breakfast, Dominic and I decided that we will be going to the mall today to get some of the things that’s needed at home, and right now we are driving down to the mall already,

“pumpkin you know we could have just stayed at home and chill”

“tests your fault for not having enough groceries in the house, how did you even survive”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“That’s because Viper and I are always together and we don’t even cook all we does is to order takeout or go out for food”

“Well you guys don’t have to do that anymore cause I’m here and I’ll always cook for us”

“Pumpkin you know your work is stressful we can always go out to eat or higher a chef”

“But I want to be the one cooking” I pouted

“Will you always have the strength to cook after coming back from a stressful shoot?”

“You’re right” I muttered

“That’s what I’m saying, don’t worry Pumpkin even if it’s fifty years to come I still have more than enough to take care of us okay?”

“And I will always support you” I added with a smile, we finally got to the mall and parked carefully before stepping down from the car, Dominic held my hand as we both made our way into the mall, we started picking all the things we need at home for cooking, I made sure to buy all the groceries that is needed,

We were finally done picking everything we wanted as we made our way towards the cashier, Dominic paid for everything we both as the Cashier pack all the things we bought in a nylon, Dominic carried most of the bag while I only helped him to carry few before we finally left the mall,

We got to our car as Dominic opened the car trunk and put everything we bought into the car trunk, we closed the trunk and was about to enter our car when we heard noise from the back, we turned and saw an a woman, she’s almost in her mid fifties, she was coughing uncontrollably leaning on her car,

“Let’s go see what’s wrong with her” I said to Dominic and he nodded as we both hurried towards the old lady, her face was facing downwards as she uses a towel to cover her mouth while coughing,

“Hello ma, are you okay?” I asked and she nodded without raising her head,

“Do you need water?”

“Dom please get her water from the car” I said to him and he nodded and rushed to the car to get water, seconds later he came back with a can of water

“Here mam” He muttered and the old woman raised her head, her eyes widened in surprise immediately she saw Dominic,

“My baby….” She muttered calmly and the can of water fell from Dominic’s hand instantly,

“Baby…..?” I drawled,

“You……?” Dominic called in anger, and that’s when I noticed the crazy resemblance between the two,

“Dom, is she your mum?” I asked Dominc who’s already burning in rage,

“Let’s go Tana” He said to me and stormed off in rage, I made to follow him but the old lady suddenly held me by my right hand

“Please my dear, I really need to speak with him, I’ve been looking for him all my life, please I really need to talk to him I regret all of my past action please you need to help me”

“Montana let’s go!” Dominic yelled from the car. I looked at the old lady and sighed. She looked so pitiful, I decided to give her my card. I need to talk to her personally. Everybody deserves a second chance.

“We’ll talk some other time, you can call me”

“Thank you my dear, thank you” she kept on thanking me, as soon as I entered the car, Dominic drove off in full speed not saying a single word to me and I totally understand how he feels, seeing your mother who abandoned you for years looking so sick like she’s about to die, I know that so many emotions is flying in his head right now.

After driving for some minutes, we finally got home and took out all the things we got from the supermarket before going into the mansion, Dominic dropped everything on the counter and helped me in washing and arranging all the stuff into the fridge, and throughout all of this process, he didn’t say a single word to me, and I understand that he will be needing his personal space to process everything that happened,

He left the kitchen after helping me out in the kitchen and the last time I saw him, it was almost close to midnight and still Dominic is not back in the room, he’s at the swimming pool downstairs, and I can no longer leave him there alone, he’s has been alone for long and it’s time for me to be there with him

The weather is so chilly and cold, I came outside and met him smoking heavily, these days that he’s been with me he has never smoke and I almost forgot that he smokes, I didn’t say a word till I got close to him, he was sitting by the pool with his leg deep inside the pool and a plate filled with sticks of cigarette by his side,

I say beside him calmly and deep my legs into the pool, I didn’t say a word to him all I did was lay my head on his shoulder with my eyes closed

“Let’s go back to the room and sleep, you need to relaxed your head” I said with my eyes closed

“Pumpkin?”

“Hmmmm?”

“You don’t want to say anything about who we saw today?”

“You’re the most important person to me and I know you need time, that’s why I’m quiet and allowing you to take time and process everything, you don’t have to think too much we can talk about it tomorrow, that way the anger must have faded a little and you will feel much better talking about it”

He kissed my forehead and picked me up in his arms,

“What are you doing?” I asked in a quiet tone

“Taking us to bed” He winked, as we went back into the mansion leaving the plate of cigarettes behind.
