Chapter 79: Impotent

As they finished their dessert, Lisa glanced at her watch. "It's getting late. we should head home."

Emma and Didi nodded in agreement. "We'll walk you out," Emma said.

The driver, sensing their readiness to leave, swiftly went to pay his bill but to his suprise everything is Already paid for and he stood up, awaiting Lisa's instructions.

As they walked out of the restaurant, Emma's curiosity got the better of her. "So, Lisa, how's married life treating you?"

Lisa's smile faltered for a moment before she replied, "It's normal."

Didi's eyes sparkled mischievously. "Come on, spill the tea. What's it like being married to Lugard?"

Lisa's laughter echoed through the night air. "You two are impossible."

Emma's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "Is he intense in bed?"

Lisa's cheeks flushed slightly, and she shook her head, "No, we haven't... done that."

Didi and Emma exchanged confused glances. "Why?" they asked in unison.

Lisa scratched her head, struggling to explain. "I don't know. It's just... whenever we're passionate, and things start to escalate, he stops abruptly."

Emma's brow furrowed. "What do you mean?"

Lisa's voice dropped to a whisper. "We'll be kissing, and things will get intense, but just as it's about to go further, he pulls back and walks away."

Didi's eyes widened. "Has he said anything? Given you any explanation?"

Lisa shook her head, frustration etched on her face. "No, he just changes the subject or avoids talking about it."

"Maybe he can't perform," Emma whispered, her eyes locked on Lisa's.

Didi's brow furrowed. "The rumors about him... could they be true?"

Lisa's expression turned troubled. "The accident... maybe it damaged something."

Emma's voice was barely audible. "You mean, maybe he's impotent?"

"Bye, see you guys soon!" Lisa waved at her friends, as Emma and Didi drove away.

The driver nodded respectfully, opening the car door for Lisa.

As they pulled out of the parking lot, Lisa gazed out the window, lost in thought.

The driver's voice broke the silence. "Mrs., shall I play some music?"

Lisa nodded absently. "Yes, thank you."

Soft instrumental music filled the car, but Lisa's mind remained preoccupied.

Thoughts of Lugard and their unresolved issues swirled in her head.

As they approached the estate, Lisa's anxiety grew.

How would she confront Lugard about her suspicions?

The driver's announcement interrupted her thoughts. "We're home, Mrs."

Lisa took a deep breath, ok. she replied.
