Chapter 46

  THE POLICE CALL

  Why didn't you explain all of these to me before now?", Mrs. Ade eyed her husband.

  "I thought you knew", Mr. Ade responded softly.

  "I never knew", Mrs. Ade said again, with guilt.

  She had gone back into the room immediately after bidding Salamat goodbye. She decided to go prepare for work instead of going back to bed.

  She came out of the bathroom to see her husband awake and looking into space.

  Guilt washed through her and she struck up a conversation with him. He explained the whole incident to her and she felt more guilt.

  "I knew the pregnancy wasn't mine right from the onset. She wanted me to marry her. It was enough evidence that she wanted to push the pregnancy on me. I even asked her for DNA but she refused. The next thing I heard was that she was married to Ladi", he added.

  "Yetunde is a bitch", she uttered with dislike.

  Mr. Ade shook his head. "Ibukun, your jealousy is going overboard. It's all in the past."
