Chapter 18
~ ROMEO PENT HOUSE~
Romeo paced around the house waiting up for Marie. He had seen her getting into the bus with Charles and had decided to come home so he could wait for her.
He had wanted to go to her but with Charles sudden appearance, he decided not to.
He didn’t want to reveal it to a worker of his company that he was acquainted with them and that’s mainly why he didn’t go to her but he couldn’t help the jealousy he was feeling.
Charles had gotten into the bus with her, what could they be doing? He was still thinking this when the door opened and she walked into the house.
“What took you so long?” He yelled at her and cvrsed himself silently.
He had been telling himself earlier that he would talk calmly to her on her arrival but he been so worked up and filled with jealousy that he had snapped at her as soon as she walk in.
“I was with a friend” she replied.
“What friend?”he asked already knowing who it is but hoping she would be open and tell him about it.
“A friend and that’s all you have to know” she said walking past him but he took hold of her hand and pulled her into his arms.
“Don’t play games with me Marie, I told you that I won’t condone to any love affair you might have” he said.
“Why? You can do what you want and I can’t? Who the h’ll are you to demand such from me?” She asked and that infuriated him.
“Am your husband!” He told her harshly before kssing her roughly on the lips.
“Let me go! Let me go!” Marie cried as she kept moving her head so he would stop kssing her.
“Stop it Romeo, I beg you” she begged and it wasn’t until he saw the tears falling off her eyes that he knew he had crossed the line, letting his jealous feelings take over.
“Am sorry” he said as he let her go and immediately she ran into her room.
Romeo roughen his hair out of frustration, he had been overwhelmed by jealousy that he let his emotions take over. He didn’t even get to ask her why she was crying earlier.
Now it would be hard to win her over, he thought as he fell on the sofa.

***************
Romeo opened his eyes to see Marie standing in front of him and immediately he sat up.
“Marie about last night I…..”
“Have decided to quit working in your company” she told him cutting him off smoothly.
“Why? ” He asked.
“You wanted me to quit,you should be happy about it” she replied.
“No I don’t want that and besides I……”
“I want a divorce” she said interrupting him.
“What?”
“Let’s get a divorce. I will continue to live with you until the real Develene returns to take her place but I can’t keep on living with you knowing that we are married” she told him.
“Why are you suddenly asking for a divorce, do you have someone else in mind?” He asked her.
“I don’t! I just want a divorce, I don’t want to be tied to you in any legal way and besides once the real Develene returns,I will be discarded ” she told him.
“You are right, you will be discarded ” he said wanting to hurt her as much as she was hurting him with her words.
“Then I will leave you to start with the proceedure. I will be working for a few days more then I will submit my resignation letter” she informed him before she left his house.

“You look down Dude. What’s going on?” Blake asked as he stared at Romeo.
Ever since Marie told him of her wanting a divorce earlier that day, he’s not been himself.
“Hey. Talk to me” Blake urged Romeo and wanting to get advise from someone, he decided to tell Blake the whole truth.
“So your saying that the Develene with you isn’t the real Develene?” Blake asked and Romeo nodded.
” And to top things all she wants a divorce?” Blake asked again and Romeo nodded.
“But you don’t want that right?” Blake asked.
“Just the thought of it infuriates me” Romeo said and Blake stared at him intently before saying his next words.
“Why? Is it because you are inlove with Marie?” Blake asked suddenly that got Romeo starring at him.
“Inlove? You know I don’t do love” Romeo replied.
“You didn’t in the past but now that Marie is in your life you are” Blake told him.
“I don’t love her, I might want and desire her but I don’t love her” Romeo said trying to convince himself with his words knowing deep down that Blake is right.
“If you don’t love her then why are you upset about the divorce, give her the divorce afterall she’s not the real Develene, give her the divorce and set her free” Blake told him.
“Never! I won’t ever give her the divorce she wants” Romeo said fiercely and Blake smiled.
“See! You love her, you won’t be this determined to keep a girl by your side” Blake told him triumphantly.
“Your right! I love Marie but she doesn’t wants a divorce and as soon as Develene returns, she intends to leave me. What do you think I should do?” Romeo asked.
“Charm her! Make her fall in love with you too, you are a man who succeeds in everything he does, so make her fall in love with you before the real Develene returns” Blake advised.
