Chapter 40 Scammed

  • The following morning when Tresh woke up, he found his wife all over the news. It happened to be mental illness awareness week and Azure was being interviewed about her struggles with the condition. The whole country got to know her difficult journey with mental illness which started with her explaining how she lost her mother to the disease, how she first attempted to commit suicide in high school when other pupils were very mean to her. She went on to state how difficult it was to manage it now being Tresh’s wife always in the spotlight with his fans who are always mean to her and being forever compared to and competing against Amaya. Then detailed the pressures that come with the title of being Mrs Taylor which includes never having your husband to yourself, having in-laws who don’t approve of anything you do, being a full time mother and an artist. She broke down on live television when the presenter asked if she gets support from her very popular husband.
  • “I don’t think it’s the lack of support but he just does not understand that I cannot control my emotions. I sometimes say things I don’t mean and I can’t take them back,” she responded, tears rolling down her cheeks. It became worse when she related what happened at the foundation meeting when Tresh shouted at her which resulted in her attempting to commit suicide. She, off cause omitted the colourful words she used on the kids that got Tresh so angry with her.
  • “It’s so hard when you are expected to act and say all the right things all the time. I was just giving the kids life lessons, I did not mean to be hard on them but they did not see it that way and told Tresh,” she said weeping more. The presenter and millions of viewers were so touched that most were crying with Azure. It was apparent to the viewers that Azure was going through the worst while carrying a lot on her shoulders while Tresh seemed not to care about her. Once Tresh’s recent posts, which happened to be about Amaya were broadcasted, every married woman was up in arms condemning Tresh for emotionally abusing his wife. Others were even suggesting that he was intentionally aggravating his wife pushing her to commit suicide in order for him to be with his mistress. All of this lead to Tresh receiving a lot of backlash for being a terrible unsupportive husband. The whole week he was being condemned on social media. His lack of response fuelled the people’s anger. Azure on the other side was enjoying all the empathy and support, she was even appointed as the mental illness ambassador and thousands of people were donating for her foundation to promote mental illness awareness. The TT foundation kids, Amaya, Becky and Daniel could not believe how Azure spun everything around. Not willing to standby and listen to people bashing Tresh who was only defending them, Tiara released the voice notes of Azure tearing them apart. Azure was so angry and cursing Tiara for messing with her well thought out plan. She had no idea that she was recorded when she spoke to the kids. She was in the spotlight once again with everyone now condemning her for using mental illness as an excuse to be mean and bullying poor kids. In just two hours after the voice notes were released, she was stripped off the title of being a mental illness ambassador. The organisation did not want to be associated with her and people demanded their donations back from her foundation but that was the least of her worries. Her supposedly dead mother saw the interview and saw it as a way of milking money from her daughter. Now Azure had to pay her estranged mother hush money to remain dead but her demands kept increasing every week. That was not all Azure had to worry about, she thought talking on live television about her condition would get Tresh to believe her and fuss over her but it achieved the opposite. To Tresh, this was yet another proof that Azure was trying to manipulate him. He went to the Azure’s psychiatrist’s consulting rooms to speak to her psychiatrist and get her report. Dr Payne’s secretary informed him that he was not in that day but promised to pass on the message. An hour later, Tresh was grateful to receive a call from Dr Payne whom, just like the psychologist felt that Azure was very unstable and advised him to avoid anything that could stress her.
