At least the swelling went down. Now all she had to do deal with was a black eye.
Technically, it wasn’t black. It was more like a fuchsia, purple mix. It definitely looked like a bruise and as much as Faith would love to claim how much of a beauty guru she is, she couldn’t explain away a black eye due to a new eye shadow.
So she beat her face until she couldn’t beat it any longer. Makeup took a bit longer to do in the mornings but when she was done, Faith looked like she stepped onto a movie set and not a boxing ring.
The infamous fight took place several weeks ago and Faith returned to work, business as usual, without saying a word to her employees what happened. It didn’t matter if she told them all of the sordid details; they found out from word on the street and demanded Faith told them everything.
Swearing all of them to secrecy, Faith told them everything but couldn’t play back the footage because it was now in the hands of the NYPD. That was fine by her. She didn’t want to review any tapes and accidentally see the footage.
Now it was a new day.
Eli was scheduled to come home later that night after spending the weekend in Houston. A full, two-day weekend.
With Elena. And her mother.
Faith swallowed the bile that threatened to come out of her throat. It wasn’t fair to Eli. He’d called every night and even FaceTimed her from the hotel room he shared with Nick. He even took pictures of where he was and sent them to Faith, telling her he wanted her to come with him next time.
The next time…
…the next time…
...the next time.
Faith rolled her shoulders to release the burdening tension between them. For as long as she lived, she would have to deal with the fact Eli had another family. She was going to be Elena’s stepmother. Elena would spend summers with her siblings. Her children might even go visit her.
No, on second thought. That would never happen.
Faith glanced up at the clock. Eli was going to arrive later that night. She was already running late after dropping the children off at their respective schools. She had a full day at the salon with two weave installs and a press and curl. She didn’t need to be distracted any more with Simone, her bastard child, and if Eli was still sleeping with Simone.
If you don’t trust your husband, you need to let him go.
Amy’s words were like a broken clock to Faith, no matter how much she put it on snooze. Eli had given her plenty of reason to never trust him and now she had to? For why? To keep the family together? To keep up public appearances?
When the couple separated before, Faith could remember how thirsty Eli’s fans were the moment they heard about his separation. Women left comments on his Facebook and IG pages, practically begging him to give them the chance to blow him.
