This was the reason he had called and wanted her to come by the church. He was trying to get to her before she found out the truth from the tabloids!
Meesha suddenly felt ill, like she was about to faint. What was she going to do now? She was pregnant with her and Carltonâs fifth child. The timing couldnât be worse. She hadnât told anyone the news yet. Sheâd just found out herself a few days ago. She must have gotten pregnant that day Carlton and her made love in his study.
This nightmare seemed to be just beginning and she didnât know what to believe or who to believe. Meesha didnât know when would be the right time to spill the beans. For now, her being pregnant had to remain her secret and hers alone. Things were already complicated enough and now that she was pregnant, it would complicate matters even more. âGod, what am I supposed to do if this stuff Iâm reading is all true.No wonder Carlton wants a divorce. He knew this was going to come out. Oh, Lord, noooo,â she screamed and cried while holding her hand over her mouth. âCarlton and Peyton? A son? Lord, this doesnât make sense. It just doesnât,â she sobbed and pleaded. âPlease, God, not this.â
Chapter 36
âSome secrets are meant to be known but once known you can never forget them.â Pseudonymous Bosch
Almost a week had passed since the media frenzy started. Reporters camped outside the gated community like vultures, waiting on the Porter family to appear from behind the gates. Calls from Perfecting Your Faith informed Carlton that reporters were popping up there as well. The news about Carlton and Peyton had gone viral. The house phone rang incessantly.
Meesha paced across the massive span of dark hardwood floors. She had eaten very little and hadnât had a restful nightâs sleep in days. She didnât return the endless phone calls and texts from church members, family and the housewives. For now, she needed some time to herself. It was bad enough that she and Carlton were going at it like wild cats and dogs. She had to shield her kids from the madness that was circling around their family too. It was downright hard and so far she hadnât been able to keep them from hearing the stories that circulated. All she could do was her best not to make their father look like a bad person. They loved their dad, and no matter what heâd done, he loved his boys. He was a good father to them, but a lousy, cheating husband to her.
Meeshaâs text notifier chimed. It was Peyton again, pleading with her to give her a chance to explain what happened. Meesha had had enough. She blocked Peytonâs number. It was too late for explaining. The devil was busy, and Meesha didnât think she had the strength, faith, or courage to fight him off right now.
âMrs. Porter, Mrs. Stenberg is here to see you. I told her you werenât seeing anyone, but she insisted.
