No settlement except seeing in court

HER BABY’S SECRET

Theme: No settlement except seeing in court

Arike’s POV

Her mouth set in a hard line. “All of our husbands knew our fathers tricked them to marry us for business purposes, so they in turn treated us like we were sold to them. My ex husband called it modern slavery.” Her eyes flooded with tears.

Ex-husband? Moyosoreoluwa was divorced, my gaze traveled down to her hands and I found no ring on it.

“He wanted us to protect the company that was the only reason why we all agreed to marry his business partners. We got blinded by our sense of responsibility but look at us now...all divorced after being treated unfairly by our husbands.” She expressed her pains.

And I didn’t even know what to do or say to Moyosoreoluwa. I just sat there and listened to her.
