Chapter 17 - Broken

Candice Pov

"Look Candice, I don't even know how to say this. But I have to tell you" Renee spoke quietly, even though Sky was out of ear shot.

My heart started beating faster automatically. I thought it was good news about Sky, but her face told a completely different story. I couldn't help but think the worst. Different scenarios crossed my mind

"Girl what is it?" I asked trying to remain calm, but the serious look on Renee's face made me want to panic.

"A woman came today at work to see Samuel." Instantly I thought of Brandy. Did she really have the nerve to come back? Didn't she get that he wasn't interested, by how she got dismissed in that meeting? She better learn to keep herself to herself.

"Yes, and?" I questioned, wondering why Renee was taking so damn long to spit it out. I swear to God, I will have words with Samuel if he engaged in conversation with a woman that was clearly trying to get with him. In fact I still need to address what happened earlier. This will obviously start to affect the dynamics at work, because I don't like the man that says the words that affect my soul, being touched by other women. I can't help that it upsets me.

"And that woman said she was his wife. She was pregnant with this other woman causing a scene."

I heard her words echo in my head. The woman said she was his wife. That can't be right. This doesn't make any sense. How could he have a wife? And pregnant. What kind of shit? I couldn't really get my head around it. I just didn't understand. What woman? What. I spaced out asking myself questions I couldn't answer. How could I be so stupid to believe Samuel was so fucking perfect? But a pregnant wife. How could he do me so wrong? I sucked that mans dick. I let him get into my mind and heart and he does me like this. This is how he does me. Moi? This is how he does moi?

I don't even know how to feel. I just sat looking into Renee's face. I couldn't even speak. I couldn't. I felt my eyes sting but I refused to cry. The deathly silence was filled with my girl trying to support me, but I couldn't even reply.

The shock consumed my body.

"Look I know he is dead wrong. I can get somebody to fix him up. Just say the word. But you can get over this, you are strong, okay. Good thing is, it hasn't gone too far"

But it has gone to far I replied with my thoughts. He's already managed to make me feel like nobody else has and we aren't even official. And I don't know what the fuck I want to do. Do I get someone to kill him, or do I do it myself? I opened my mouth to speak. Sky's laughter in the background felt like it was taunting me. How could I be so stupid?

"Candice don't worry. You are worth way more than that hoe. She was an average THOT okay." Renee made an effort to comfort me.

I started to wonder what she looked like. Shit, I couldn't help but question if she looked better than me. I mean of course Renee is going to say she was average, but clearly I'm the side piece in this situation. His lil fix of the pussy, whilst his wife is carrying his seed. What, is it because she didn't put out anymore. I never thought he could be so heartless. I should have known, he's always been cold mother fucker. It's not like I was blind to how he treated others. The way he snaps and demands. Out of the two brothers he was known to be the ruthless one. I don't know why I fooled myself into think that was a front. How could I be so blind? How could I put myself up so highly, that I thought I was special.

"And Samuel, he doesn't realise how special you are. He is stupid. You don't need him." Renee continued. At least someone thinks I'm special and I know she was trying to help. And I know she is right. I don't need him. I only wanted him. I just wanted him so bad. Obviously to him I'm disposable. He was probably planning to fire me as soon as I caught on to anything. Literally my life is in that mans hands. My love life, my job. Fuck, I have to think about a job otherwise everything I worked fo-
