6 Chapter 6 I don't love you Raina.

"Love, I find is like singing. Everyone can do enough to satisfy themselves though it may not impress the neighbours as being very much." ~ Zora Neale Hurtson

Raina Williams

It was finally the day of the dinner, I was nervous and didn't know what to expect. Well I had been to many dinners and lunches with the Le roux family but this particular one was different because Angelo would be having his girl friend Yasmine over there. Sadly, that should be me.

I parked in the spacious parking that I have gotten used to and familiar with, even the Security of the Le roux's doesn't even question me anymore when ever I come around.

"Ashton, Ashley...babies wake up we are at your Grandparents house." I whispered waking them up gently. They looked so peaceful as they both squinted their beautiful eyes looking at our surroundings.

I opened the drivers door as soon as I was out I opened the passenger door at the back.

"I can't wait to eat granny's blueberry pie." Ashton muttered stepping out of my Silver Land Rover. I don't know I guess I always had a thing for big cars.

"All you do is eat Ashton. Grandpa said you will be fat." Ashley replied a glint of innocence written on their faces as they argued which I got used to because it happened on a daily basis.

In about twenty minutes later we were all sat in the dining room. Alma with her husband Kennedy, who worked at his father's real estate company but it was soon to be his anyways besides that Kennedy Michaelson is a nice and kind young man and a great husband sometimes I find myself envying my own close friend Alma Le roux. She might have shared the same womb with Angelo but they are nothing like each other. On the other side Martha and Robert Le roux were sat together then of course Yaya and Angelo.

He didn't look happy at all when he saw me. I knew I wasn't welcome, when he pulled his mother to the kitchen to talk about me obviously as for Yaya she was dressed all elegant and she made my self esteem drop a little. I was dressed in a red knee length dress that shaped my figure and curves with black heels. As we ate there was a lot of tension around the table even though Richard tried lightening up with his jokes and Alma too but nothing would work. I really felt out of place.

I will always be the girl who got impregnated by her Boss's arrogant son.

The gracious family talked about all sorts of things and Yaya just seemed to fit in perfectly since she mentioned originating from Netherlands meaning she could speak dutch with the Le roux's

Perfect.

"Raina, so how is the Derrick case going ?" Richard tried adding me to the conversation.

"Its going well." I smiled then looked down at my not touched food.

"Raina, I'm actually working on a business collection for women and you have the perfect body for it." Yaya commented I had recently learned that she is a fashion designer by profession.

Suddenly Angelo coughed and I knew he wasn't happy about the idea.

"Honestly for someone who has been in the maternity ward you have a ravishing body Raina." Alma added.

"I'm jealous too dear." Martha added.

"Thank you, but Yaya I have to pass." I said in the most nicest way possible.

The twins were done eating and wanted to go and play with the dog Fierdo. Richards dog, he's quite the animal lover like his grandchildren. When the twins left Angelo cleared his throat as if he wanted to say something and I knew damn well it wasn't going to be splendid.

"Can I just make something clear ?" He said.

"Go ahead son." Richard spoke and everyone else nodded.

"Especially Raina." He sighed looking frustrated at the thought of my name... does he hate me that much ?

"Honestly I don't know why you were invited to this dinner because it was meant for Yaya."

My breath hitched as he continued. Everyone looked shocked by his choice of words but it was honestly expected. I knew I had it coming but I just didn't expect him to be so heartless. This was the man, I had been madly inlove with-

"Don't meddle in my family, just stop meddling. Raina just because I made you pregnant doesn't mean I married you. I know you are in love or rather obsessed with me but just move on stop forcing yourself on me or my family. I don't love you Raina and I never loved you and its likely never to happen ever. If I could get you out of my life I would trust me but I know the twins need their mother. I only tolerate you for their sake nothing else. Now, i would really appreciate if you stopped interfering in my personal relationships. Everywhere I go.. you're there. I can't even have piece of mind or space for fucks sake. You are always at my dad's company, with my mom... I have to see everywhere even when the kids aren't involved which is honestly really draining for me."

I'm stupid.

Was all I could think, very stupid. Mixed emotions was all I felt but mostly pain, everyone was just as shocked as I was except Yaya who kept giving Angelo an encouraging smile. This was it, my official gut wrenching moment.

"Uhm excuse me." I mumbled feeling my eyes get heavy with tear under my eyes.

Good lord Raina you can't cry in front of them.

"Raina-" Martha stood up trying to stop me but Angelo was right, its time I moved on. But will I ever ?

"Its okay Martha, thank you for the wonderful supper. I hope it won't be too much trouble if I left the twins....I just need to be alone." I swallowed the last words, I have to go before I cry.

"Its okay, honey." Martha hugged me.

"Go rest Raina, the twins will be fine." Richard stood up to hug me as well as Kennedy and Alma.

"Stop spoon feeding her for God's sake, she is a grown ass woman." Angelo spat bitterly.

As soon as I realized my body had betrayed me my eyes were flowing with tears I quickly pulled back.

"I have to go...thanks again." I muttered before walking out the door.

I think I heard Yaya say something between the lines.

"Well done babe, you really put her in her place."

I shuddered at the thought that it was her idea or rather their idea.

This is the last time I will cry for a man especially Not Angelo !
