HOW DID I GET MARRIED?

Nathan stayed longer in the shower because he was lost in thought, he was supposed to sleep next to her?, what if.....something happens?.....

Nathan shook all the stupid thoughts out of his head. After drying his hair, he stared at his reflection for a while "deep breaths Nathan, deep breaths"

Nathan walked towards the bed and saw that Shola was fast asleep, the blanket was no longer covering her and she was hanging at the edge of the bed about to fall he couldn't stop himself from smiling.

He covered her properly with the blanket and lay next to her, he stared at her hair having this urge to wake her with a kiss.

Nathan quickly turned around facing the other way but soon an arm wrapped around his waist and a soft breath on his back, Shola whispered sleepily "don't go.." holding him tighter, Nathan stayed still making sure that he didn't wake her up.

Shola woke up feeling comfortable and refreshed, her pillow was extremely soft....'I'm on Nathan again aren't I?'

Her head was on his chest listening to his heartbeat while his hand was around her waist protectively.

A blush quickly crept up on her face as she realised the intimate position they were both in.

She slowly untangled his hand from her waist but he pulled her closer "Five more minutes, just five minutes, lets stay like this for five minutes" Nathan sleepily said, after overworking himself yesterday his plan was to stay in bed all day and snuggle with his wife.

Shola felt like her heart was going to beat out of her chest, while his heartbeat was as calm as water, five minutes felt like five hours for Shola, Nathan finally got up from the bed and turned to look at the dazed woman, "Good morning" he smiled before walking out.

Shola stared at the door and then touched her chest, her heart was beating faster than usual "Probably allergies " she said to her self as she walked into the bathroom.

Shola went downstairs for breakfast and as usual the maids greeted her asking her what she would like for breakfast, she wasn't really in her right mind as she kept thinking of Nathan.

Nathan was sitting at the dining table when she reached there, with a cup of coffee in one hand and a news paper in another, he was wearing a black well tailored suit looking really official and more attractive, when Nathan turned to look at her she said the first words that popped into her mind "Good morning....I mean hi, I mean....." Shola wanted to slap her own mouth, she told her self to keep shut.

Nathan smiled at her adorable behaviour, he should really be sleeping in her room more often.

After breakfast, Nathan walked straight to the living room and sat down on the couch. He opened his laptop and begin to type away. Shola walked up to him curiously "Aren't you going to work anymore"

"I'm just not going early today" Nathan said not telling her the real reason why he was going late, he wanted to spend a little more time with her before he left but, his plans were immediately ruined that morning.

"Master....." butler Stan walked up to Nathan with a nervous look on his face

Nathan noticed that something was wrong, he looked at butler Stan and asked "What is it?"

"The Old Madam is here to see you, she's in the garden"

Nathan's expression changed quickly, he looked at Shola "I'll be right back, just stay here"

Shola nodded and watched as Nathan walked towards the garden, lost in thought Shola scratched her chin 'if its Nathan's mother that means the person who poisoned her was here, atleast that was what her mom said. Shola looked at the direction where Nathan went to, she came to a decision and followed behind him.

"Now is the perfect opportunity to divorce the girl, Nathan"

The woman had dark green eyes with red lips, she looked younger than age.

"Mother we're not discussing this again, you're going have to get used to having Sholana as your daughter in-law"

Nathan said with a cold tone and his voice void of any emotion.

Shola was surprised at the horrible comment her 'mother in-law' was saying about her, she got really angry.

"That girl does not deserve to be married into our family, she is not even from our country and our family traditions are being ruined because of her, listen to me as the filial son that you are, you should listen to your mother and divorce her before her memories come back! or else...."

"Or else what?" Shola had heard enough of insults for one day, just because of where she came from?....she was proud of her country and being the kind of person who wouldn't let anyone who tries to bully her get away with it, she was ready to talk back.

The old madam Lu was a bit surprised at the way Shola spoke to her, she had never heard her speak in that manner before.

"Or else what?, are you going to poison me again or.....are going to finally stop being a coward and come at me face to face" Shola immediately regretted what she said in a fit of rage, she just called Nathan's mother a coward.

"You...." Madam Lu pointed at Shola her fingers trembling slightly "That poison was meant to finish you off, even though it didn't do what I wanted it still gave you the brain of a child so, I won't take your childish words to heart????" Madam Lu saw the change in Shola's expression and smiled satisfied.

'I am a child' Shola said to her self, a smirk appeared on her face but quickly changed to a bullied child, tears were threatening to drop from her eyes and she looked extremely pitiful.

"Nathan, am I really that stupid?, do really act like a child?" Shola held his arm looking up at him, Nathan's gaze grew softer as he touched her cheek

"You're the most intelligent woman I know"

Shola didn't want to resort to this but, she was really getting tired of standing.

Madam Lu who was just busy recovering from the evil smirk the girl just showed her heard a cold voice in front of her with a hint of anger

"Mother, if there's nothing else you can leave now!" Nathan spat out ruthlessly making his mother shiver involunterary

"This woman will be the end of you"

Madam Lu said as she looked at the girl behind her son with disdain.

Shola felt the woman's stare on her and she stared back smiling deviously.
