Chapter 211
You should save the explanation for your ex-husband. If you still love him, you can go back to him and you know what?? It’s over. This relationship cannot work anymore. We are done” Williams said with tears in his eyes as he walked out of the room leaving Dina In tears.
Dina sat tiredly on the bed, tears streaming down her cheeks. She began to wonder how Williams had found out about it. She hadn’t told anyone apart from Lisa and Lisa would not do such a thing to her, never, she thought as she wiped her tears.
She brought out her phone to call Lisa but then on second thought, she dropped the phone. She knows Lisa has been going through a lot lately. Maybe it’s high time she learns to fix her problems herself and stop depending on someone, she thought.
She would give Williams some space and when he’s ready to talk they can sort things out but at first, she needs to think of a way to get rid of Richard for good before he ruins her life. she thought.
She stood up from the bed, walked inside the bathroom, and took her bath. She needed to get dressed for work. Lisa wasn’t available in the restaurant and it wouldn’t look good if she was unavailable too, she thought.
She walked out of the bathroom with a towel tied around her chest. She walked towards her wardrobe and brought out a pair of black jeans and a white long sleeve. She put it on and then she brushed her hair.
After that, she put on her earring and wore a little bit of makeup. She put on her shoes and carried her bag, just as she was about to walk out of the room, the door burst open revealing Richard.
“Oh, it seems like my wife is all dressed up for work,” Richard said as he moved toward Dina. He stood in front of her and tried kissing her but Dina pushed him away.
“What do you want?” Dina yelled and he laughed. Dina stared at him disgustingly, he was drunk.
“Oh, honey!! I want you” Richard said in a flirty tone as he moved toward Dina and forced himself on her.
Dina then kicked him so hard on his groin and hit him on the head with the lamp by her bedside. Richard fell on the floor and lost consciousness.
She quickly called the police and in no time the police arrived and took him away.
“I’ll make you pay for this and I’ll be back. You cannot get rid of me like that” Richard who was now conscious yelled as they took him away.
“No need for that because this time I would make sure you spend your entire life in prison” Dina yelled back in anger.
She walked out of the house and hopped into her car. She ignited the engine and zoomed off to the restaurant.

Lisa had just arrived and she had asked Mrs. Rebecca to take the children with her to a nearby hotel and lodge while she went to see Alfred at the hospital.
She didn’t want the kids to come with her to the hospital, nor did she want them to see Alfred in a bad shape, it would break their hearts, she thought.
She couldn’t believe she was back in her hometown after how many years. She remembered the day Daniel saved her life and flew her out of the country just to protect her from Alfred and now Alfred was the same reason she was back, she shook her head at the thought of it.
She has a lot of memories in this town. She must confess, she missed it here and things were not different from when she had left. Everything seemed the same, just a few changes.
She brought out her phone from her bag and called Daniel to text her the address of the hospital which he did.
Lisa boarded a taxi and went straight to the hospital. The car screeched to a halt in front of the hospital. Lisa alighted the car and the first person she saw was Daniel. He was waiting for her outside the hospital.
“Lisa” Daniel called as he moved towards her and hugged her.
“How’s Alfred?” Lisa asked as she pulled away from the hug.
“He’s fine, he’s awake,” Daniel said and Lisa heaved a sigh of relief. She was so glad he was awake, she needed to see him.
“Please take me to his ward,” Lisa said and Daniel nodded in response.
Immediately, Lisa and Daniel entered Alfred’s ward and they met Rhoda and Alfred talking. Rhoda’s hands were on Alfred’s face and both of their faces were so close that they were about to kiss each other. They looked so intimate.
Lisa was surprised to see a woman on Alfred’s side. Is he having an affair? Lisa thought as she stared at the both of them who were lost staring into each other’s eyes and barely noticing Lisa and Daniel were in the room.
If he had a woman by his side, there would be no need to come in the first place. He’s still in the hospital and flirts with women. Lisa thought as she felt jealousy wash over her.
Daniel stared at Lisa and noticed the sad look on her face. He quickly cleared his throat and Alfred and Rhoda turned to them.
“Lisa…” Alfred managed to call and Lisa gave him a small smile.
“Uhm, Rhoda… I need to get Alfred’s food. Do you mind helping me with that?” Daniel said and Rhoda nodded with a smile on her face. She stared at Lisa from her head down to her toes before walking away.
“Rhoda??” Lisa thought
“I thought she was dead? How come she’s alive? Or maybe this is another Rhoda, not Alfred Ex” Lisa thought.
“Lisa” Alfred called, jolting her out of her thoughts.
“I didn’t know you were still flirting on the hospital bed. How many nurses have you slept with here?” Lisa asked, obviously jealousy washing all over her veins.
