The Robert Sisters

Chapter 31

I didn't think this was the best thing to do but Chase and Molly assured me that it was. They said after visiting him, I'd be able to know if he knows about my child's existence and has chosen to run away from his responsibilities or if someone told him bad things about me for him to meet me twice after few years and acted like nothing happened between us. His reaction would determine how to tell my sister the truth before she walks down the aisle with him.

Like they say,there's no harm in trying so i was willing to give this visit a trial.

"Hi," I smiled at the receptionist. She was a beautiful young lady who happened to be in her early twenties."I'm here to see your boss,Cameron. "

"Good morning ma'am, do you have an appointment?"

"Not exactly but he knows I'm coming."

She picked up the intercom, "What's your name ma'am?"

"Karen, Karen Roberts."

"Hello Mr Cameron, miss Karen Roberts is here to see you sir." After a long pause, she asked "Should I send her in Sir?"

I figured he said yes because when she dropped the intercom, she smiled at me. "He's waiting for you. His office is on the sixth floor,second door to the left."

"Thank you so much Celine." I looked at her tag.

"You're most welcome ma'am."

I followed her instruction and arrived at his office. His name and position were boldly written on the big door that was slightly open so I knocked and waited for a response.

"Come in." He answered.

I stepped in and shut the door behind me.

"That door was left open for a reason, leave it open." He said.

"Oh sorry, i didn't know." I went to open the door.

He was sitting on his office table,his back facing me as he stared at the beautiful city of New york.
Files were scattered around on his table,his Apple laptop and a cup of coffee were also on the table.There was a big book shelf on the extreme end,a small refrigerator, a coat stand beside the shelf,a mirror console opposite his desk with a beautiful flower vase and framed pictures on it.

"Would you stop assessing my office and state the reason why you're here?"

How the hell did he know what i was doing when he wasn't facing me. Well I've been standing here for sometime and I haven't said a word. "Uhmm,sorry... I have some questions that have been bothering me and i need answers that's why I'm here." I told him.

It's a good thing he was still backing me. I wouldn't have to look at his beautiful face and eyes I once fell in love with.

"Questions about what?"

"About us." I answered almost immediately.

He swirled his chair around, pushed his laptop aside and placed his legs on his table. Oh no! why did he have to turn around now i was beginning to summon enough courage.

"What about us?" He asked.

I had to look down in order not to meet his gaze. "Everything about us Paul. Why are you doing this,to make me feel bad or what?"

He slammed his hand on his table,"Do not call me that. What are you accusing me of doing? "

"Getting married to my sister. You're doing this to spit me right? You still love me,don't you?"

"I don't have any reason to make you feel bad and I'm getting married to Valerie because i have to."

"Not because you love her?"

"That's none of your business Karen."

"It's my business!" I yelled at him,"She's my sister and i don't want her to get hurt.I don't want you to walk away from her like you always do to people who truly love you. "

He scoffed, got up from his seat and walked up to me."See who's talking about love." He said,before leaning on his table with his arm akimbo style. "You have the guts to come here and preach to me about love huh! After all i did for you, how did you repay me?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Stop pretending you slut!" He yelled at me and i lost it. I raised my hand to slap him but he stopped me. "Don't you dare raise your filthy hands on me ever again!" He warned.

"You're nothing but a cheap lying prostitute and a gold digger.You've fooled and cheated me once and I'll be a fool to fall for this again."

I opened my mouth to speak but i couldn't. The hurtful words were too much to bear.My face was red and i could feel my eyes getting wet but i forced myself not to cry in front of him.I came to have a proper chat with him to know how he'd react to whatever I say and to possibly tell him about our son but he turned the tables around and called me names.
I couldn't do this anymore. I turned to leave when he finally spoke up from behind me,"I do not want to ever see you around me again.Do not call,text or visit me. Whatever i had with you was a mistake and i curse the day i met you! "

That was all he had to say for me to breakdown before him.I stormed out of his office with a shattered heart. Someone probably fed him with trash,who could that be?

Who do you think that someone is or is Karen just assuming?

Feels good to be finally back, I promise to update more chapters soon.I hope you enjoy this one...
