Get Me Married By Tori Chapter 40


    Chapter 40: Strong warning


    I groaned loudly in my attempt to let out some steam. How could Jordan insinuate that I had done


    everything on purpose? I was hurt, I was scared, and yet he had the guts toe into my room and tell


    me how mad I was.


    I knew what I saw, I knew what I felt, my kidnapper had been to my room and he had hurt me, I wasn’t


    going mad, I was too sure of it to believe that it could be an illusion. I was so angry at Jordan and also


    disappointed in myself. I still didn’t understand why I was always looking for something different,


    thinking he would be better or change or act like an actual person with correct reasoning. The past few


    days I had been expecting too much from him and getting disappointed every time.


    I shook my head and pushed off the thought of Jordan from my mind. I had more pressing needs, so I


    decided to think. Samantha was right when she said the security had been tripled. No one coulde


    into the house and leave without being spotted, questioned, or caught. One man couldn’te in and


    leave without being spotted especially if he is a man that can’t walk properly even. No one could do


    that, except they had help.


    That thought made me shift from my bed and triggered a slight pain in my foot. I winced lowly and sat


    down in a better position. My kidnapper had help, if he didn’t he wouldn’t be able toe into the


    mansion, bypass the security, walk past the house ande straight for my room. It was either


    someone who was helping him, and when I mean someone, I mean Jordan, Samantha, or both.


    My phone rang immediately and pulled me out of my serious thoughts. When I saw the callers, I sighed


    in relief because they were the right people I needed to talk to.


    “Hey” I announced the moment I picked up the call.


    “Hey, and hey” Tiana and Tiffany announced happily.


    “You guys sound happy” I started.


    “Of course we are, how can little bundles of joy like us ever sound sad” Tiffany replied and I managed a


    chuckle.


    “I am not a bundle with you girl, don’t say that, you are not a kid”Tiana replied her and they both started


    arguing about it. It was funny to hear them bickering like kids but my heart was heavy and my life was


    at stake tough. Maybe if I just declined ma’am Leona’s offer, my life wouldn’t be at stake as it was. I


    had never had so much trouble and bruises in my life and here I was with so many. I might have


    probably found a job for myself now, and pay mom Leona some part of the money she used in taking


    care of my sister if I did not ept the offer. But the deed had been done and I could do absolutely


    nothing about it, I could only live my life with regret.


    “Are you alright?” Tiana’s voice pulled me out of my thought and that was when I realized that they had


    both stopped bickering.


    “No,” I said truthfully, and instantly gave them a rundown of all that had been happening to me.


    “Gosh, Jordan is a jerk” Tiana yelled over the phone at the end of my story.


    “He might be a part of this you know, he can’t just be so stupid or ignorant about all this” she added and


    I could hear the anger in her voice.


    “I don’t know…I just don’t know” I replied exhausted about the entire situation.


    “And no one noticed a break in…?” Tiffany asked.


    “That’s the point, there was no sign of a break-in and my house is too secured for a stranger to just


    walk in, past the guards, and through the house to my room”


    “Then it has to be an insider” Tiana repeated the same thing I thought.


    “Samantha,” Tiffany said.


    “Or her stupid husband” Tiana interrupted.


    “His actions could be proof” she added.


    “But why would he do that to her. With what she said, he had been nicer and there for her more than


    she ever thought he would be, I don’t think he would suddenly turn to do this” Tiffany protested.


    “That might be his cover-up, to make her feel safe and less suspicious of him while he might be the one


    behind everything”


    “No, if he was the one, why didn’t he just let the kidnappers do whatever they wanted with her.


    Remember he had been the one to go looking for her all alone. If he wanted her hurt, he would have


    done that then because that was the perfect opportunity, and remember, the kidnapper only mentioned


    Sam” she added and I saw reasoning in what she was saying.


    “Well, now that you put it that way, he might not have done that but still, I am suspicious of him”


    Tiana on the other hand refused to buy it.


    “He knows how difficult she finds it to sleep and knows why. He might have guessed all this and just


    decided to have her go through this torment”


    “And why would he have to torment her?”


    “To get rid of her. He wants Samantha and not her, this way Genesis might decide to just leave for her


    peace of mind and out of fear, then he can have just Samantha” Tiana finished and I also saw some


    sense in what she said. Maybe it was Jordan and this was their way of getting me out of their lives.


    That knowledge got me angry and yet it hurt me and it also gave me a headache.


    I didn’t speak much with Tiana and Tiffany anymore and we ended the discussion and said goodbyes


    for the time.


    But I couldn’t help but think of how much my life had be more miserable as the day went by. I did


    nothing wrong but ept a marriage proposal that I thought Jordan wanted. I was also a victim and he


    didn’t want to understand that.


    I sighed heavily and got up from where I had been sitting. I felt pain in my foot and some other parts of


    my body but I ignored it and went over to my mirror stand. A gasp almost escape my mouth when I


    took a look at my reflection in the mirror. There were sters and cuts all over. My lip was dry and my


    eyes were swollen and dim. That wasn’t the Genesis that came into that house and it angered me that I


    was suffering for something I didn’t do or something I didn’t deserve and yet my husband wasn’t


    helping neither was he seeing my pain.


    At that thought, a new determination grew in my heart. I wanted out of the marriage as much as the


    next person but I can’t out of the marriage because his mom had trapped me terribly and leaving would


    also mean, going back to our old life for my parents. I didn’t want that. In as much as I dreaded it, I was


    going to remain his trophy wife and make sure anyone who hurts me pays dearly for it. I had no one to


    fight for me as most married women ought to have, but I was not going to remain still and act stupid


    while they hurt me. It was going to be an eye for an eye, and I would do my fighting myself from now


    henceforth.


    I took a final look at my horrible state before I turned to the door of my room and painfully walked out.


    The cut in my foot was hurting but I didn’t stop. I took slow, painful steps till I got to the top of the stairs.


    It was lunchtime and I could see Samantha and Jordan from where I stood, having a wonderful lunch.


    “Oh! Ma’am” Margaret called out the moment she sighted me.


    “You shouldn’t have, I would havee up with your lunch,” she said and Jordan and his mistress


    turned to me. I looked away and turned to the steps in front of me. I had to walk down so many of it


    with just one working leg.


    “I’m fine,” I said to Margaret and took another painful step with my hands to the railing of the step,


    followed by another and another and another. But I stopped when I saw Jordaning towards me. I


    red at him, I red so hard, my eyes would have popped out of my socket. He stopped in front of


    me and my anger soared. I ignored him and turned to continue walking when he blocked my path.


    “You shouldn’t havee down. But let me help you” he said with a voice that was so calm like I didn’t


    just ask him to stay away from me earlier. I ignored him and attempted to walk past him when he


    ced his hand on my arm. I pushed his hands away from me like it was some disease and walked


    away. He followed behind me and held my hand again.


    “Let me help you,” he said. This time, I turned around and pushed him with all the strength I could


    muster.


    “Stay the hell away from me Jordan” I yelled at him and turned back to where I was heading.


    I sessfully came down the stairs and Anna ran towards me. Without saying anything, she ced my


    hand on her shoulder so she could carry some of my weight and I let her. She started towards the


    dining but I stopped.


    “I want to speak to the guards,” I said. We turned towards the entrance of the house but I didn’t miss


    Samantha’s victorious smile as she sat in the dining.


    Lots of guards were outside as usual and bowed immediately after they saw me. For the first time, a


    thought came into my head. There were so many of them, they all could have not seen anyone strange


    even if the person was brought by an insider. One or two of them must have seen him,


    there was no way no one saw him. He wasn’t invisible. With that thought, I came to realize that I had


    rats in my midst who were either working for Sam or helping Jordan to make me think I was mad.


    “I need to speak with all of you” I announced loudly then I turned to Anna.


    “Call all the maids, they should stop what they are doing” I ordered.


    Guards came closer, there were hundreds if not more, then the maids starteding out of the house


    and lined up in front of me.


    “What’s going on here?” I heard Samantha from behind me but didn’t turn around to look at her. Anna


    came forward and stood at the position she was before.


    “How many of you think I have gone mad or delusional?” I asked loudly and no one gave me a reply.


    “Give me an answer, I won’t bite, I would be d even because that would mean I need help. So


    please give me a reply” I said and waited for someone to say something.

    “We think you are perfectly fine ma’am,” Margaret said.


    “Do you all agree with her?” I asked.


    “Yes, ma’am” they chorused.


    “That means I wouldn’t have smashed a vase in my room and step on it myself because only someone


    who needs help would do that right?”


    “Yes ma’am”


    “It also means that I never cut myself or bruised myself too”


    “Yes ma’am”


    “Someone did this and attacked me in my room, someone who had before attempted to hurt me and


    you all im no one broke in and you saw nothing. Doesn’t that make me look mad?” I announced and


    they went quiet. I smiled and stared at each of them.


    “I do know that Samantha, my husband’s mistress is a criminal and maybe my husband too and is


    behind everything that is happening to me”


    “Genesis…” I heard Jordan’s angry voice behind me but didn’t bother looking back to see him.


    “I know most of you are also working with this criminal to make my life a living hell in this house” I


    stated and watched as everybody turn around, they started looking at themselves suspiciously.


    “I’m going to give this as a warning, just a warning because I would break whoever is working with this


    criminal and make your life more miserable than you can imagine. Be wise and beware” I said and


    turned around to go back into the house. Jordan and Samantha were right behind me, they had a hard


    cold gaze.
