Chapter Twenty

I.j's morale surprised Ken. While walking home she wondered how I.J. was able to express herself without being shaky, furious or even scared of hurting her with her words. Unlike Jerome who speaks to her like he wants to find out something from her.

Iyke wasn't around when she got home and she was thankful for that. He was the last person she wanted to see.

"How was school today?" Aggie came out drying her hands with a hand towel.

"Fine ma".

" Mr Iyke travelled. He will come back before Monday. I hope you have his number so that you can call him whenever you need something?"

"Yes, I do." She replied and immediately entered her room. She was afraid if she stays back, discussing with the maid, it will lead to the unwanted.

"Thank God she called him by his name. It means she doesn't know we are married."
