Chapter 176

I see, and that is why his friend didn’t value you. For goodness sake Sharon you are a medical doctor, you deserve better. You can’t let people disrespect you all in the name of husband. Ben said so angry.

Sharon raise her head to look at him.

Are you angry?, Please don’t be, I was just trying to make my mother happy, she went through a lot raising me and I don’t want to disappoint her.

I know, but you should know when people are disrespecting you.

Yea, and that is why I don’t want to get married again.

What?, But that is not right, what if I want to marry you?” Ben ask making Sharon get up.

“You want to marry me?”

“Yes”

“No… you can’t marry me”

“Look I’ve done somethings that are not good to the ear, I don’t want to course you trouble, you are a good man so please don’t say that.”

Ben looked at her and wonder who she was referring to when she said she was missing someone.

“So tell me, who were you missing?”

Sharon pause, she didn’t remember saying that, she was so emotional when she said it.

But she couldn’t say anything, she was thinking that maybe is all a big mistake, she didn’t need someone who will start bossing her around all in the name of husband.

“Look, am sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt your feeling but the word just came out”

“So you were referring to me then” Sharon stare at him for a long time and nods.

“You miss me but you don’t want to admit it, but I want to tell you that I miss you everyday and I can’t sleep because of you. We can’t make this work Sharon, all I need is for you to trust me. But if you can’t even get your husband to sign a divorce paper then there is nothing I can do, my hands are tight because he is still your husband.”

“Am sorry Ben” Sharon started crying, “I want you too, but Patrick will kill me if he founds out about us”

“And what are you talking about?” Ben ask in confusion making Sharon come back to her senses.

“Oh, am sorry about that, but I miss you too, and I wish that Patrick will sigh the papers.

Ben prepare to go back and Sharon sees him off to the gate.

“I will come back next week to check up on you”

“There will be no need” she said making Ben pause in his track.

“What did you say?”

“I will be the one to come visit you, so you don’t have to come here” Sharon said making Ben the happiest man.

As soon as Ben left Patrick shown up in front of Sharon’s gate with flowers in his hand.

“Sharon please forgive me in all the wrong things I have done against you” he almost going on his kneels when she stopped him.

You don’t have to do that, I’ve been with you for how many years now?, You’ve never given me a flower, in fact not you, not Paul, and I wonder what kind of men don’t give flowers to women in this part of the world.
