Chapter 154 Leila scoffs, a smile on her lips as she pulls back to look at Carmela in the eyes, her gaze dripping with smugness.
It's obvious Carmela believes she wants Tatum back and thinks the news of the pregnancy is supposed to make her jealous but who cares? Coming back here, she had a lot of theories in her head, one of them being that they would be a loving family, Tatum, Carmela and one or two pups but Carmela doesn't even live with him.
"Do you know who my new neighbour is?" Leila smirks smugly and Carmela frowns, giving Leila the answer she needs.
"That's right, even if you're pregnant with his child, he still wants to wake up and see me. I'll probably invite him over for dinner one night, you never know what a good meal, a couple glasses of strong wine, a hot dress and the right conversation can lead to?" Leila flicks her brows suggestively, a cocky smirk perfectly etched on her lips.

"You-" she stamps her feet and storms off in frustrated fury and Leila chuckles.
She knows Carmela's weakness now and she will exploit it at will.
When she returns home, she finds Tatum sleeping on the couch in a sitting position, his head leaned backwards, his hands splayed over the backrest and Amara, also asleep, her body stretched on the couch using Tatums thigh as her pillow.
She wonders, If Tatum knew Amara is his child, will he do right by her? Will he give her what is truly hers? Why is she even thinking that? He won't. He already stole that right from Amara when she was still in the womb. Tatum's head jerks forward. "You're back." "Yes," Leila replies in an impassive tone. "You can leave now." "I was hoping we could have dinner together, you know, talk?" Tatum replies, gently putting a throw pillow under Amara's head as he stands up.
"My man would not appreciate that," Leila replies coldly, glancing towards the door as Kelvin steps inside with Liana.
"Leila, it's just a-" "I said leave," her voice goes an octave higher. Her eyes widening slightly in annoyance.
What right does he think he has to demand dinner with her? Has he suddenly forgotten what he did to her? The things he said to her? What could he possibly have to say from that lying deceitful mouth of his that she hasn't heard before? An apology? She doesn't need one.
Another promise? She'd just be a fool to believe anymore of those.
"Very well," Tatum says with a slight nod, his eyes completely calm and he leaves the house.

Later that evening, after dinner, Kelvin, Leila and Amara are relaxing in the living room watching a TV show with Liana asleep upstairs, when Kelvin stands up. "I should get going, I'm quite tired." "What do you mean you're going?" Amara's eyes immediately becsullen as she turns away from the TV to face him. "Mama and Kalready prepared your room." "You better sit your ass back down but if you're really so tired, it's the room opposite mine," Leila says to Kelvin, her eyes not leaving the TV.
Kelvin smiles simultaneously at mother and daughter. "I appreciate the gesture ladies but I have swork to do back at my house before I call it a night." "Fine, we'll drive hwith you, grab the work and get back here," Leila turns to him this time, a coy smile on her lips. "We miss you around." "How about tomorrow night? I really need to focus on the task at hand, you know?" Kelvin replies, about to pick up his briefcase but Amara beats him to it. "Baby, givethat," Kelvin reaches out to take it from her but she ducks underneath him and hands the briefcase to Leila.
"I said tomorrow," Kelvin says with a defeated look in his eyes. "I promise."
"Well, we want you here tonight and every other night and if you really want this briefcase, you're going to have to cget it from me," Leila replies, walking towards the stairs and the moment Kelvin takes the bait, walking after her, she runs up the stairs, leading him to the prepared room.

Leila runs inside the room and slides the briefcase underneath the bed before she sits on the mattress, legs crossed, hands on both sides and her head thrown back. Kelvin slowly walks inside and he frowns, scanning the room for his briefcase but sees no sign of it. "Not funny Leila, where is it?" "I've been having insomnia lately and
my body hurts a little, do you mind givinga little massage after you shower for bed? Leila arches her neck, massaging her shoulders with a soft seductive moan escaping her.
Kelvin squints at her.
