Chapter Thirty Six
“Is this some kind of joke?” Jack asked as he stared at her.
“It’s not. You are Andrew Black. I know it must sound crazy to you but am your wife. The wife you married three years ago”Claire said with all sincerity. Waiting for him to reply but he only gave her an angry look before turning to leave.
Quickly she ran towards him. Obstructing his path.
“Get out of my way”
“I won’t. I know you won’t believe me and that is why have come prepared”she said bringing out her phone. Showing him the pictures they took together.
“That was taken when we were married. We couldn’t have our honeymoon because of your grandmother who was sick and so we stayed locked in for three days to make up for the honey moon. Those are messages we sent to each other.”She said showing him the messages they shared together.
“The accident which robbed you of your memory was meant for me. I should have been the one to die but then you saved me. You got injured in the process and I thought you died. Your mother made us all believe that you were dead and if you remember that the first day I saw you. I fainted. That was because you looked so much like him. I didn’t even knew you were him back then but when I saw Your mom. When I spoke to Lucia and she told me that you were my Andrew. I decided to stay”Claire said as she waited for him to say something.
He turned to leave again and she held his hand only to be pushed away.
“Stop with your nonsense you psychopath!”He yelled at her.
“It’s not Nonsense Andrew…..”
“My name is not Andrew. Its Jack and have had enough of this. I took pity on you because you looked pitiful. I decided to tour you around the city only to be rewarded with this. I should have know you weren’t normal when you kept on mourning your late husband for three years. I didn’t even expect that you will think am him. You need to be admitted somewhere” He said harshly as he turned to leave but Claire blocked his path again.
“Am not crazy and am saying the truth. Your mom is the liar here. She hid the fact that you were alive and brought you here to Singapore just so you could start a fresh life and forget your life in Australia but I won’t let that happen. Am your wife and If I have to call everyone who knew you from the past just to prove it to you then am willing to do so”She said bringing out her phone.
“What are you doing?”He asked
“Calling someone who will confirm the truth”She said.
“You must be crazy!”He said snatching the phone from her hands.
“Give me my phone!”She yelled at him
“Fine then. Since you are so desperate to prove the truth to me. Then I will just have to ask the one person who you claim started all this”He said and without waiting for her answer. He took her hand and pulled her to his car. Pushing her roughly into it passenger seat.
“Where are you taking me?”Claire asked
“Scared that I might be taking you somewhere to kill you? You have little faith in the man you believe to been your husband”
“I do have faith in You and the Andrew I knew. My Andrew won’t put me in danger and you are my Andrew”She said softly.
“But am not. Am Jack Bradford. You might have known Andrew but you don’t know Jack. You don’t know what he is capable of”He said frightening her but Claire stood her ground even though she was scared.
“Your right. I don’t know Jack and that’s only because he is an imagination. Jack Bradford is a lie created by your mom to erase your past. You are Andrew. The man I love. The one I still love”She retorted hotly.
He didn’t reply this time but instead he drove the car. All through the ride they didn’t say a thing to each other but when the car stopped in front of the Bradford hotel. She began to talk.
“Why are we here?”She asked as he pulled her out of the car.
“To get it all sorted out”Andrew replied as he pulled her into the building and into the. Elevator.
“Your mother would only feed you more lies!”Claire said as the Elevator took them to the upper floor.
“I will judge that myself”he replied as they both headed to his mother office.
“Is my mother in?”He asked the secretary
“Yes she is in but ……”He didn’t let her finish her words before barging into the room.
Lucia had been on the phone but when she saw Andrew and Claire together. She finished the conversation quickly and switched off the phone.
“I thought you had something to attend to son and who is she?”Lucia feigned ignorance as she stared at Claire.
“She is the guardian of the girl who had won a scholarship”Andrew replied.
“You mean the child from Australia”Lucia asked
“Yes and it just so turns out that she is making a claim that am her husband. Andrew Black. Care to explain mom?”He said
“What do I have to explain. It’s not my fault that you look exactly like her late husband. I already told you miss. My son only looks like your late husband but he is not him”Lucia said and angrily Claire walked towards her desk. Slamming her hand hard on it.
“Stop it Lucia! You know who I am and you also know that he is Andrew. My husband. You h@tëd me because I married him. You lied about his death just to get me away from him. You manipulated him and mould him into someone you want. You said those things yourself to me!”Claire yelled at her.
“When did I? Okay! I admit that I had decided to talk to you but that was to clarify that my son Jack isn’t Andrew. You have to stop with this craziness. I can’t believe that you would go this far as to harass my son about it. I need to get the guards. This has gone far enough”Lucia said as she picked up the phone.
“Andrew you have got to believe me. Am telling the truth. Your mom is the liar here. Am your wife. You wore this ring into my finger. You love me as much as I love you. Give me the chance to proof it to you. Andrew I…..”She stopped when two guards walked in pulling her hand.
“Take her away and make sure she never comes back”Lucia said as they dragged Claire out.
“I can prove it. There is a scar right below your abdomen. You have a scar there Andrew. I know it because I saw it “She said as she pulled away from the guards.
She ran towards him and pulled up his shirt. Searching for the scar but there was none.
“You have gone too Far!”Lucia yelled at her
“There was a scar there. There certainly was a scar there”She said looking confused.
“Now you look here!”Andrew said as he pulled her by her arm. Looking both angry and dangerous.
“Have had enough with your craziness. I am Jack Bradford not Andrew and even if I were. I wouldn’t have married someone like you. I don’t go for the none beauty type. I certainly would never go for a girl like you. You aren’t my type and you will never be. Let this be the last time you bring up something like this because I won’t stand for it. I might probably take you somewhere far and get you out of this earth”He said meaning every word and Claire found herself shivering even as the tears poured.
“See! Am not your Andrew. You wouldn’t be scared if I really was. A girl shouldn’t be scared of the man she loves but the look in your eyes says otherwise”He said as he push her away from him.
“Just like my mother has said. Don’t ever let her into the hotel again.”He said giving her a h@tëful glare before turning away.
