Lexi's POV “You bitch!” Claudia scoffed. Just as she was about to lunge at me again, my father's voice rang out, his eyes flashing with anger. “That's enough, Claudia,” he said, his voice firm, his deep tone echoing through the room. I watched as Claudia's face turned red with rage, her eyes blazing with fury. “Just stop it, Jenkins. You are the reason why she is a spoiled princess,’’ She hissed and I rolled my eyes. “If there is one person who is spoiled here, then it's your daughter.” I said through gritted teeth. “How dare you talk back to me?” Claudia's face turned red with rage, her eyes blazing with fury. “Please, Claudia. This is not why we called her here. Don't screw this up,” Claudia tried to protest, but she held herself. She seemed to realize that she couldn't take on my father like she always did. At least not at this moment. She shot me a death glare before walking away, her high heels clicking on the marble floor. Margaret glared at me too before stalking

Lexi's POV I shrugged Julian away, my face burning with embarrassment. “I…I didn't mean to kiss you like that. It was just to prove a point to your son. That's all,” I really hope he buys my words, but instead his eyes sparkled with a mischievous glint, his gaze holding mine. “I think you did mean it, Lexi. And I meant it too. I want us to continue this…from where we stopped,” I stepped away from him, my face still burning with embarrassment. “No, Julian. I didn't mean it like that,” My voice was firm, but my eyes betrayed me, darting away from his intense gaze. “Are you sure about that little princess?” He asked as he took slow and steady steps closer to me. The way he said the word ‘little princess’, sent a shiver down my spine. “Come on, Lexi,” I chided myself as I stepped back, trying to provide a room to be able to run away. But he didn't give me any chance. He placed his hands on my waist and pulled me closer to him. “I swear to God, I didn't mean it like that, Julia

Lexi's POV “He is your boyfriend?” Julian asked and I gritted my teeth in anger. By ‘is’ he was indirectly acknowledging that we were still together. “Not at all, Julian. He's my ex. We are no longer together” I answered, my eyes never for once leaving Ethan's face. Ethan's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched. “So, you are the one who has been fucking my father, huh? You are the bitch that my father wants me to meet, huh?” He sneered and I rolled my eyes. “You were so desperate for a man's touch that you had to go after my father. Just how shameless can you be, Lexi? It could have been someone else for heaven's sake” I felt a surge of rage at his words, but I kept my cool. I can't let him know that his words were getting to me. Ethan was a punk and he would be pleased to know that his words were affecting me. I can't give him that satisfaction. “To hell with you, Ethan. You have no right to speak to me like that,” I spat my voice barely audible. “You betrayed me by fucking my

Lexi's POV He smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. “Yes. I'm sorry for hitting you with my car” he said. I felt a shiver run down my spine at the huskiness of his voice. “It's fine,” I said as I tried to leave the bed, but he pushed me back gently. “You can't leave. The doctor said you need to rest,” He said softly, but I shook my head. “I can't stay here. I have important things to attend to,” I said firmly, but he shook his head. “You have to rest. You have been through hell already,” He said. I couldn't help but feel that he wanted something from me. “What do you want from me?” I asked as I folded my hands across my chest and he chuckled. “You are indeed smart,” he said, as he winked at me. He stood up from where he sat and walked towards the window, with his hands behind his back but he turned to face me. “First things first, we have to introduce ourselves. I am Julian,” “Lexi,” I gave a curt reply. “I know all about you, Lexi,” he said, his eyes glinting wit

Lexi's POV Unable to bear it anymore, I turned and walked away, leaving my family to their mocking laughter. I have a long and difficult road ahead of me, but I was determined to succeed. I wanted to reclaim my mother's company, Eclipse Holdings, and restore it back to its former glory. I would get my mother's properties and I'll clear my name. I'll let everyone know that I wasn't responsible for my mother's death. I'll let everyone know that the real culprits are my father, my step mother and step sister. Before anything else, I got to the bank and withdrew some funds from my account. Claudia and my father have freezed all my accounts, including my mom's own, but little did they know that there was one bank account left. Only my mother and I have access to it. When I was done, I made my way straight to the cab station, ready to go to my mother's company, my heart racing with anticipation. I hadn't set foot in the building since her death and the thought of going back the

Lexis's POV I stumbled out of the house, my heart heavy with the height of Ethan's betrayal. I can't believe that he would do such a thing to me. Moving on so fast and worst of all, with my step sister. I swear, if it were someone else, I wouldn't have been so angry like I am now. I have long expected a lot of things from my family. Even though I was still shocked that my step mother would pay the wardens to kill me, I'm not surprised. She is a cruel woman and she would do anything to get whatever she wants. If she could kill my mother, who was once her best friend, just because she wanted the company, she would do anything. If she could seduce my father and get pregnant for him when my mother was still barren, she would do anything. So I'm not even surprised that she wanted me dead. She wants to wipe me off the face of the earth so that she would keep the company to herself, I guess. But never for once did it cross my mind that Ethan would betray me too. The pain and anger th
