Chapter: Chapter 40Aurora and Caspian rushed into a dark abandoned building with a team or police officers. Caspian provided Annabel’s second line and she was tracked into the old abandoned building. Aurora’s heart pounded as the team moved cautiously down the hallways; their steps bounced against the concrete and everything second that passed felt like a dagger in Aurora's heart as the thought of Liam, her son, in such a horrible place. “Stay close, Aurora; everything will be fine,” Caspian whispered, his voice tense, however steady. He tried to stay strong, but the fears in his eyes were obvious to Aurora. When they got to the heavy metal door that led to the room, Annabel was holding Liam, and one of the officers made a sign for everyone to halt their steps. Aurora's breath halted as the officer turned the handle or the door. The door immediately opened slightly and it revealed a small, dark room that was lit just by a single bulb. What Aurora saw made her breathe halt; she was almost suffocated.

Chapter: Chapter 39As Aurora dashed towards her car, her heart kept beating heavily as she contemplated what to do next. She has called the police and her lawyer; her private investigator wasn't left; however, there was no news of Liam yet. She started parenbutalating and the thought of where she would head engrossed her mind. Caspian immediately dialled the cops line. Everywhere was tense as Aurora kept pacing to and fro in the parking lot; her mind was in chaos as she started thinking of how exactly Liam had disappeared.Then Suddenly, Aurora's phone rang, and she quickly picked up the call; her heart echoed as she pressed it to her ear. “Hello!” She spoke with a trembling voice, trying to figure out whose call it was. “Hi bitch!” A cold, familiar voice rang into her right ear. Aurora froze immediately, she instantly recognised the voice. “Annabel?” She whispered slowly as her heart sank. “Yes! It's a good thing you recognise my voice,” Annabel responded to her, her tone filled with anger. “Now i

Chapter: Chapter 38 Caspian stood still watching the secretary as she dialled up the landline to Aurora’s office. He felt anxious and quite frustrated, and the sleek walls and shining floors around him refused to calm his nerves. He blinked his eyes and by the time he glanced at the secretary again, she was already on a call with Aurora.Eventually, the secretary raised her head to him. “I'm sorry, CEO Caspian; madam said she doesn't want to see you.” Before she could finish speaking, Caspian walked past her without waiting for a permit from her and headed straight to Aurora’s office.“Sir! Please, you can't go! Wait!” The secretary screamed as she ran after Caspian, trying to stop him; however, Calsina paid a deaf ear and ignored her totally. His mind was made up; getting to Aurora’s door, without knocking, he pushed the off-door one and stopped inside. Aurora, who was well seated behind her large desk, stood up immediately as she sighted Caspian barged into her office; her face was filled with surpri

Chapter: Chapter 37Caspian stood shocked right in the middle of the mall, his jaw clenched as his eyes were fixed on Aurora as she walked walked elegantly away with Ralph. His pride echoed hard at him not to obey Caspian's ridiculous demand to pick up the shopping cart and follow her like some kind of slave. He felt the audacity of Aurora's demand, however, the thought of losing her weighed heavily in his heart. He shook his head thoroughly as his fist tightened hard at his side. "No!" He said to himself. "This is humiliating" He then took a final glance at Aurora's retreating figure and his heart sank, and he moved his feet in the opposite direction. He then turned fast and walked out of the mall. His chest was filled with a mixture of anger and regret. The echoed or Aurora's heels clicked against the polished fade behind him as he pushed open the glass doors and stepped into the crisps evening air.Caspian's car sped through the city streets, his grip firm on the steering wheel. His mind raced with t

Chapter: Chapter 36After then, Aurora raised her chin and steady her gaze as she walked briskly away from Caspian towards the entrance of the mall, and her heels clicked sharply on the polished floor. Caspian, without wasting any time, trailed behind her; desperation was clearly written all over his face as he tried to keep up to her pace. "Aurora," he whispered in an insistent voice as he leaned very close to Aurora, hoping Aurora would hear him and give him a listening ear. "Aurora, what do you want to trust me on again? I have done what you requested of me to do; I have made Annabel apologize to you in public and also broke up with her, and now I am ready to be your errand boy. Please, I need you to help me, father, and business." Aurora didn't respond; she kept her face nonchalant, and her attention was fixed straight ahead. She didn't take any glance at him, and her silence made him more desperate.However, when she wanted to make a turn at him, something quickly caught her attention. There was a

Chapter: Chapter 35Caspian was frozen as he stood for a moment; he couldn't believe what had just been revealed to him. He was hit by the weight of Aurora words like a tidal wave. He was shocked that Annabelle was behind everything—the lies, the pictures, and the manipulation. He couldn't believe that she had manipulated him, ruined his marriage, and destroyed his trust in Aurora, and he fell for the lies—every bit of her lies. He squeezed his fist behind him as he gawked at Annabel in annoyance. His eyes were full of flames of fire; he was furious as he tightened his jaw. He wanted to scream at her for every evil thing she had done; he wanted to lash harder on her; he wanted to slap her across the face to make her feel all the pains he had gone through, which he had caused him for the past years.However, he held back and forced himself to control his anger; he didn't want to lose it now; he didn't want to lose it in front of Aurora. He didn't want her to think he was still the same man who had hurt h

Helga looked at him with pleading eyes, arrogance disappeared from her. “You can go, I will meet you at the hospital later,” Logan Owen said to Helga. Helga couldn’t take what Logan said, she wanted Helga to follow her to the hospital immediately. “Oh!

When he woke up, he was already famished. Mrs and Mr Oliver Smith had already gone to their house, as they couldn't get any response from Anthony. They tried contacting Bruce, however, Bruce wasn't in the right state of mind to pick up his calls. "Hi, Helga, how are you doing?"

Chapter: Chapter 95"What did I do to deserve this?" Miranda asked as she realized that Anthony had truly posted the termination of the wedding on all his social media platforms."Get out of my room right away or I'll throw you out!" Anthony threatened, his eyes became red and fierce. Fears ran through Miranda as she sighted Anthony's face. She became scared of what Anthony could do and wore back one of her dresses. "Please, don't do this to me, don't put me to shame, remember our unborn child, please my dear husband," Miranda pleaded. Hearing that from Miranda got Anthony pissed off more. He walked up to her and dragged her out of his room."Miranda started weeping, however, she realized one of the maids might be coming, so she quickly stood up from the tiled floor and walked out to her car. She started driving the car towards her house, as her phone started ringing, she ignored all the calls and let the phone ring as much as it could, her brain was filled up about the shame and disgrace that would be

Chapter: Chapter 94"Oh! Was that the reason you requested I must be present, just to waste my time! Oh! I see, Mr Anthony Oswald, I am not interested," Ella replied and sashayed elegantly out of Anthony's present. Anthony felt so pained, that he kept mute and walked into his office. He felt so bad as his ego was brutally bruised. Ella walked without speaking to anyone and she could hear a footstep behind her. It was the manager of her company."I am so sorry, ma'am, I never knew it would be such a short meeting," Liam's Group of Company said immediately as she walked up to Ella opening the door of her car to go in."Oh! No! It's fine, I understand, once there is any issue, don't hesitate to inform me, please, I will handle everything!" Ella said affirmatively and got into her car after their conversation. She drove back to her office with different thoughts in her heart. She wished she had given Anthony an audience. She started thinking about how Anthony had helped her in the past, if it wasn't for A

The other managers have started grumbling among themselves.Different thoughts kept disturbing Liam Group of company managers, and wondering what to do to make Ella attend the meeting. She really doesn’t want to lose the contract because she knows how beneficial the contract will be for their company. “Any good news maám” The other manager inquired from her immediately as she walked into the hall. “Nothing yet, but I will sort it out!” Liam's Group of manager assured her subordinate. After the call Ella had with the manager, she started contemplating why Anthony would have to react that way.“This is my first time being the director of this company, it wouldn't be fair if I made them lose this contract, but I do not want to set my eyes on that young man any longer. I do not want to remember the beautiful moments we had together. If I keep on

Chapter: Chapter 92Hearing the honk of the car, she adjusted her address, exposing more of her small boobs, and tried adjusting her makeup. She wanted to look extremely gorgeous to Anthony. She practiced some sexy sitting positions and seduction manners she learnt from the internet. She still looked like she used to look and it wasn't obvious she was pregnant at all. "What do I say to him when he comes, how do I initiate a conversation he would fall in love with?" Miranda started contemplating what to say to Anthony that would make him give her a chance or properly get into his bed. She felt so horny and she needed some strokes from Anthony's dick. Anthony was exhausted after the busy hectic day, after the event, he was meant to go home straight to rest, however, he went to his office to get some jobs done. All he wanted was to get home, order delicious delicacies, and then rest afterward. He came down from his car and walked elegantly to his grandparent's apartment to say hi before going into his b

Chapter: Chapter 112YVONNE POINT OF VIEWWhen I woke up. I didn't meet Mr. Donovan on the bed; the sun was streaming through the curtains. Mr. Donovan had woken up before me. As I stretched up. I pushed off the covers and headed straight to the bathroom. I quickly took a long, hot shower, which helped me to shake off the remaining sleep and the heaviness that had engrossed my chest since yesterday.I quickly got dressed and back my outfit. As I walked back into the living room, I found Mr. Donovan sitting on one of the couches, and his eyes were glued to the news right on the massive flats television screen. "Good morning, sir," I greeted as I tried to sound quite cheerful and then he turned to me briefly."Are you leaving already?" he asked. "Yes," I responded and grabbed my pause. "I have many things to do today." He quickly nodded without bothering to press further."It's Alright! We will talk later. Don't forget to call me if anything comes up," he said and I responded with a smile as I walked out

Chapter: Chapter 111DONOVAN POINT OF VIEW After my meeting with Mr. Oliver, I was filled with a mixture of pride and disbelief as I walked out of the incredible mansion. It sounded unreal to me that I would be earning 500 million dollars per month and unbelievable that I already got the job. I quickly informed James, my driver, to take me back to my office. As I sat in the car, I couldn't help but replay everything in my mind. How Mr. George had warned me that I shouldn't have given half of my company's shares to Mr. Donovan. I felt I had no choice; Knight Industries was in critical scandals and Donovan was my life now and now I began to wonder if I had truly made a mistake.However, it was not anything to regret. Mr. Donovan had helped me to clear Knight Industries' name from the Internet and had helped me open the way for the opportunity I just had with Oliver Group. If Knight Industries was still buzzing with scandals, there was no way I would have gotten this job offer from Oliver Group.James was

Chapter: Chapter 110TRENT POINT OF VIEWI drove around the city street, and the quiet hum of the engine filled in the silence in my car. The night was still, which was unusual, with a soft glow of the street lights that cast a long shadow across the pavement. As I moved closer to Yvonne's house, I felt some unusual feelings settling hard in my chest; something wasn't just right, and I felt like probably she was deliberating avoiding me. I pulled up through her driveway and I parked and stepped out of the car as I felt the cool night air brush against my skin. Her hours were quite dark and there was no light inside, and I felt quite lifeless and abandoned even as I approached her door and pressed her doorbell as I waited for the familiar sound of her footsteps. However, I got nothing.I rang the doorbell again, and this time, I leaned closer to the door if I would somehow call her out, but there was still no response. I felt quite frustrated and I pulled out my phone and immediately dialled her number.

Chapter: Chapter 109YVONNE POINT OF VIEW After the intense, deep, and draining sex with Mr. Donovan, I felt quite trapped in a villa like a caged bird with clipped wings. Everything in my body wanted to leave; I wanted to have breathing space to clear my head. The air with Mr. Donovan was quite suffocating; it was heavy and the weight of his presence and all the evil things he did kept on pressing against me. I really wanted to meet Pete tonight. I wanted to use him to clear off my head; at least with Pete by my side, I could forget all my sorry and pains for the night. I didn't want it to linger till tomorrow. "You are staying right here with me tonight, Yvonne," he said firmly as he dark eyes were fixed on mine; they were stable and unmoving."You are quite not in your right state of mind to leave." I look back deeply at him, I wanted to argue, wanted to tell him that I have more important things to attend to, however, his tone didn't allow any room for any opposition, he wasn't asking me. He was co

Chapter: Chapter 108DONOVAN'S POINT OF VIEWI rested my back against the marble countertop in my bathroom as I watched Yvonne stand staring blankly at the tile. The air was quite thick with the smell of lavender; however, I could see that her mind was far away, and her hands trembled faintly as it betrayed the fears she was trying so hard to hide. I had requested she pull the trigger on Janet, which she did, but the fears in her eyes at that moment were the ones mixed with innocence and shock. I wasn't surprised; Yvonne was still far from the hard person I was training her to become. She was indeed a work in progress, and I was shaping her; little by little, I was breaking her innocence; it would be one task at a time. "Let us go," I said. My voice was calm now but firm. "You really need to stop thinking about it. Janet was absolutely nothing. You did what was needed to be done; you did what was necessary." She nodded slightly to me and her lips pressed into a thin line. "I'm sorry! It is just that; i

Chapter: Chapter 107TRENT'S POINT OF VIEWI slammed my hand hard in the steering wheel, frustration bubbling hard inside of me with each second passing. I was chasing after the cars—the fleeting expensive cars that Lenore entered one of it from the mall. I had to get to see Lenore; it's more than a mission to find her. I needed to see her. Make things up with her, I had messed up, I had hurt her, and I couldn't let her go anymore. Lenore wasn't just someone I had hurt in the past. She was the little young child that I hit with my car years ago. I thought she was dead, and for years, I had carried out the guilt, blaming myself for what had happened, and now that I knew she was still the same Lenore I knew, I couldn't ignore the way I felt anymore; I had to get her and make it right with her by all means possible. It wasn't just about me trying to make it right with her for my past mistakes only. But I knew she was capable more than I could ever imagine; back when she was my secretary in Knight Industrie
