Chapter 54

"Oh, Eleanor, you are back? This is my girlfriend Vivienne, the one I told you about. I hope you don't mind her joining us for dinner."

"What did you just call her?"

"My girlfriend."

"You must be joking," I say, finding his words too unbelievable to accept. There is no way Vivienne is dating Uncle Jack. My precious Uncle, dating Vivienne, I forbid it. Even though her behaviour towards me at the office has changed. I still know the type of woman she is, and I would never allow Uncle Jack to be with someone like her.

"Why would I be joking?"

"Because she is the same woman I work with."

"That's not possible; my Vivienne is nothing like that woman you work with."

"Your Vivienne, somebody, please wake me up. I think I am having the worst nightmare of my life. Jason got someone pregnant, and now this. Are you kidding me, God" I say, feeling frustrated with everything happening today.

"Jason got someone pregnant," Vivienne says, surprised.
