CHAPTER 131

NATHAN’S POV

Getting into the car, I hit my fist on the steering as I felt angry with myself. I didn’t want to do this but Cameron kept forcing me. Seeing her so hurt really made me feel bad, I couldn’t bare to see her that sad. Cameron was right after all, I had feelings for her. After we seperated, I had thought all my feelings would die down but I guess I was lying to myself. What happened today just made me realize the truth.

Turning on the engine, I drove speedily to my house as I couldn’t think properly. After what I had witnessed, I knew she was broken. I had broken her so badly that I wasn’t sure she could recover that easily. Seeing the way she was fighting back her pool of tears just made my heart ache so much.

I loved Adele so much and I could practically do anything for her, all of this was just a stupid plan that I was following. I hated everything that was suddenly happening, wanting all of this to be over. I wished I could reverse the ti

    CHAPTER 132 CHLOE’S POV Days had passed, slowly turning to weeks and I was getting over it. Expecting a call from Nathan was pointless as he didn’t even make any move or action of that sort, deciding to face my daughter and make sure she becomes the best in life. Addison was also here to help, we had resolved our little issue and things were going well. Having a best friend like her was amazing, she wasn’t only my best friend. She had turned family now and I loved her so much. Though we fight at times, I know she was doing everything for my benefit. She always had me in mind in whatever she does. “I think you should go for the event, else people might start talking,” Addison said and i shrugged. “I don’t care, I can’t keep faking happiness all because of other people,” I simply said and she nodded. I wanted to be alone right now, with ny daughter. That was all I wanted. I felt very betrayed about what had been happening and honestly, speaking to people made it wor

    133As I stumbled out of the party, my head was spinning. I couldn't believe what Lily had just said to me. She had been relentless in her attempts to trigger me, but I refused to give her the satisfaction.I stood outside the patio, breathing in some fresh air and trying to calm myself. I felt angry at myself for letting Lily drag me into a war of words in public, for letting her get to me like that. I felt slightly embarrassed and very triggered as I remembered her smirking and condescending demeanor, and to top it all off, the proud manner she talked to me. It was incredibly insulting.All because of Nathan.A part of me argued that it wasn't his fault, that he wasn't responsible for the way his mistress behaved to me or anybody else, but I didn't care. He should have stopped this, he should have kept her on a short leash. Instead he stood aside and let her attack me, the mother of his daughter, and he was nowhere to be found.I decided to abandon the party and go home. I was havin

    134.I dropped Lily off at her home and got into my car. I didn't know where I was going, but I just kept driving until I found myself at a bar. I sat alone at the bar, nursing a whiskey, trying to drown out the voice in my head.The bartender slid a shot at me, throwing a white towel over his shoulder. "You are the guy I see on TV aren't you?" He asked, looking at me quizzically.I spared him a look, having absolutely zero interest in getting into any bar talk tonight. "Probably not.""No," he said, tapping his chin thoughtfully, "it's definitely you." Leaning towards me he whispered, "Don't worry man, you don't wanna be seen, I get it. Imma keep your identity safe." He finished, winking at me.Too tired to keep denying, I answered gratefully, "Thanks man.""No problem, we shut down in about an hour so you might wanna hurry up." He said, walking over to the other end and going back to his phone.After a while, the bartender came over to me. "Everything okay, man?" he asked."Why?" I

    135I woke up in the middle of the night, my body tangled up with Chloe's. The warmth of her body next to mine was comforting, but I couldn't shake the feeling of guilt that came with it. I had been using her, using our history to try and get back at Eduardo. And now, here we were, in bed together, after a night of passion.I felt her stir, her warm breasts rubbing against my chest as she reached to wrap her arms around me."Are you awake?" I whispered, not sure if she heard me."Yeah." She replied quietly.We lay there in silence for a while, just enjoying each other's company. But then Chloe spoke up, breaking the silence."Why are you still with Lily, Nathan?" she asked me, her voice soft and hesitant.I knew this question was coming, but that didn't make it any easier to answer. "I wanted to get your attention," I admitted, the words leaving my lips before I even realized what I was saying.Chloe's eyes widened in surprise. "What?""I wanted you to notice me," I continued. "I want

    NathanMy eyes fluttered open, and he found himself enveloped in the warmth and softness of Chloe's embrace. They had just spent the night together, and I couldn't help but smile as I reminisced on the experience.It felt as though we had never been apart, as if we had picked up right where we had left off all those years ago. Damnnn, I could still remember the way her hair had felt against my skin, the way her breath had mingled with mine as we laid together in bed.Fuck!I had missed her so much, missed the way she laughed and the way she challenged me. And now, as I lay there with her in my arms tightening around her waist, I knew that the right thing to do would be ending things with Lily. I wanted nothing more than to be with Chloe, to make up for the mistakes I had made in the past. I knew that it wouldn't be easy, that we still had a lot of work to do to rebuild our relationship. But I was willing to do whatever it took to make things right, to show her that I was truly sorry

    ChloeNathan's departure left a palpable void in the house. Adele clung to him, reluctant to let go, as he bid her farewell. I stood by the door, watching them with a bittersweet smile. As Nathan stepped out into the sunlight, he turned to look back at us, a final wave of goodbye. One would think he was leaving forever with how slow he walked. Dramatic man. I closed the door behind him with a sigh, taking a deep breath as I leaned back against it. My heart was pounding in my chest, a mix of excitement and apprehension. Last night was amazing. So fucking amazing. I was happy to have Nathan back in my life, to feel his warmth and love again. But damn, I also knew that our road ahead would not be easy.As I walked back into the living room holding my daughter's little hands tight, the silence was overwhelming. But then I heard a faint sound, the sound of Adele's laughter echoing through the house. I glanced down at the little girl, touched by the look of joy in her face. Adele was ha

    NathanI walked into my home with a huge smile on my face, still relishing in the memories of the time I spent with Chloe and Adele. The feeling of joy and contentment overwhelmed me.As I walked through the door, the familiar scent of my home filled my nostrils, and I was enveloped by a sense of comfort. I couldn't help but think about how much I had missed this feeling, the feeling of being surrounded by warmth and love.I walked through the living room, admiring the decor that I had carefully chosen over the years. The walls were decorated with art that I had collected from my travels around the world, and the furniture was arranged in a way that felt cozy and inviting.The sunlight streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow over everything in the room. I felt my heart swell with gratitude for the life I had built for myself.I made my way to the kitchen, where I knew I would find solace in a good cup of coffee. As I poured myself a mug, my thoughts drifted to Chloe and Adel

    NATHANI couldn't believe what I was seeing. Eduardo was standing in front of my parents' house, laughing as if he didn't have a care in the world. I approached him cautiously, trying to keep my anger in check."What the hell are you doing here?" I demanded, my voice barely above a whisper.Eduardo turned to face me, his smile fading slightly as he saw the anger in my eyes. "Oh, Nathan," he said, his voice dripping with false innocence. "I was just passing by and saw this old house. I got curious, you know?"I knew he was lying, of course. Eduardo wasn't the type to just stumble upon something and get curious. He was always looking for an angle, always trying to find a way to benefit himself.But I couldn't let him know that I was onto him. I needed him to believe that we were alike, that we shared the same values and goals.I forced a smile and tried to keep my voice even. "Yeah, I get it. Old houses can be fascinating," I said.Eduardo nodded, his smile returning. "Exactly! I was ju

    220Chloe"Dada!" Adele's screams echoed through the air as Nathan swung her all over the place. I smiled at the sight. Her giggles were contagious. I watched through the window. Watched him spin her around, laughing his head off with her and for a minute I allowed myself to get lost in the moment with them. This was the life I had wanted all along. A happy home, a happy place, a perfect family. My eyes fell on my trembling hands and I retreated, allowing the blinds to fall. Except for the fact that we were the furthest from perfect. It had been three months since the accident. Three months since the truth of... Well everything was exposed. Mahn my life was a fucking rollercoaster. The more I thought about it, the more impressed I was that I had survived it at all. And it seemed it all started from that crazy one night stand. The world, my world, cracked and shook around its edges right from the day that I had met Nathan. If he hadn't gotten me pregnant, I most likely wouldn't hav

    CHAPTER 219 NATHAN’S POV I headed to the doctor's office to collect discharge papers and a few other documents. Chloe was finally certified to be discharged and I couldn't be as happy as I was now. I was finally getting what I wanted. Signing something on the discharged paper, we started preparing for her departure. When I meant we, I meant Addison and Cameron and it was a very chaotic event. “Stop hissing, it's irritating!” I heard Cameron’s disgusted voice yelling at Addison. “Don’t you dare speak to me,” Addison warned. Feeling very embarrassed, I could see the several burning eyes on the scene happening. They had started with their annoying banter. Couldn't they just get along? I understood that Addison was annoying but Cameron had to behave like a man and stop whining like a child. I was getting angry with their actions and was only trying to cover it up with a smile. Women just loved arguing and that was it for Addison. She wouldn't miss a chance to argue with yo

    CHAPTER 218 NATHAN’S POV I got to the hospital parking lot with a smile on my face. Walking into the hospital, I was very excited. Nothing was stopping me from getting her now, both Eduardo and Tristan were rotting in jail and that was all I could ask for. Pushing the don't open, I mentally groaned to see who was there with her. I was about to barge in when something stopped me. Chloe was sitting up while facing Addison and Adele with the widest smile I had ever seen. She was speaking gently and was even laughing. It felt like ages since I have seen that bright smile on her face, Chloe was the most beautiful person I had ever seen. She was always smiling and helping everyone regardless of her problems. She had a heart of gold and was always reaching out to others, losing her would be the biggest mistake I would make if I allowed it. I had already lost my loved ones once, I wasn’t going to allow this one again. Not again, she was mine alone! Seeing this just made m

    CHAPTER 217 NATHAN’S POV I walked casually with Cameron beside me as we met with Officer Alex. “Good morning,” we exchanged pleasantries as he welcomed us into his office. We couldn't interrogate Eduardo a day before because he had been taken to hospital because of some minor injuries. “Are you ready?” Alex asked as we walked to meet Eduardo. “Never been this ready, I had been ready for this my whole life,” I added as I put on a forced smile. Wishing that Chloe was here to witness this, my mind drifted to her. I was going to make sure I call the nurse after this. I was also worried about her safety and had stationed two private guards for her. As far as Eduardo is concerned, he could strike anyone. I was very wary of that man and didn’t want any accident to repeat itself twice. I was never going to allow Eduardo to get to my family again, especially when I was still alive! Even if it means killing him, I would gladly do so without hesitating. He had done more than enoug

    NATHAN’S POV I walked into the police station with Cameron as he discussed something with them. “You are back again?” I heard a policeman ask. “Yes, I want to reopen the case of Noah Nathan and his family,” I said as the cop went through the file. “A murder case,” I added again as they searched for it before finding it. Going through it, he nods his head. “I assume you have several pieces of evidence now?” He asked as I nodded my head. He invited me into his office and I started discussing everything with him. “That’s fine, let me arrange for an arrest,” he said before calling a junior officer. Everything was finally falling in place, I was going to get my revenge and also get my girl back. Eduardo shouldn't have played those silly games and thought I wouldn't get him. Though it was difficult, he shouldn't have messed with me. I was going to teach both him and Tristan a very good lesson. “Arrange for an arrest, Mr. Tristan, owner of….” I heard the cop saying b

    NATHAN’S POV “Focus man!” I heard Cameron’s frustrated voice as I failed to carry the heavy weight for the fifth time. “I am not in the mood for this shit!” I said angrily before walking away. Not knowing why I was angry, I tried calming down my nerves. Cam was just trying to help, I shouldn't have snapped at him in that way. Everything was only because of her, it's been days since I last visited Chloe. Calling the nurse to ask if she was doing fine. I understood if Chloe wanted space and that was what I was giving her but it wasn't easy for me. My heart yearns for her presence. I was slowly going crazy with everything that has been happening lately. Every thought was connected to her, now that I knew she was innocent of everything I feel so stupid for even doubting her. She was the mother of my child and the least I could do was trust her but I had failed woefully. I had one job to do, to trust and love her but I had failed. Remembering how I had spoken to her that night

    NATHAN’S POV I groaned as I went to the kitchen to search for something to eat. My mind wandered off to Chloe. “I am sure she will be fine,” I said to myself as I grabbed some cookies and a glass of juice. Walking to my office, I settled down and started some serious work. I was planning an event for models, actors and everyone in the entertainment sector so it had to be perfect. I started my work and didn’t know that time had passed, I was so buried in my work that I hadn’t noticed. Time flies as they always say, you wouldn’t believe it till you start experiencing it yourself. I went down the memory lane of how everything started. My meeting with Chloe, our relationship, everything was just so fast and now we were here. Judging by Chloe’s action I don’t think she can forgive me. I have been trying to deny that for a long time but it is getting obvious daily. She doesn’t say much and would rather ignore me. Sighing heavily, I rubbed my temples anxiously. Her being with

    NATHAN’S POV “I don’t still support you buying her these flowers,” Cameron argued as we walked into the hospital. “Ohh please, Chloe is my wife and I know what she wants,” I announced angrily. “Technically, she isn't, you are only trying to win her over,” Cameron said with sarcasm. I wanted to strangle him, when you are friends with someone like Cam he does everything to annoy you. Facing him, I gave him a hard glare before storming out of his sight. “Wait, I am sorry,” I heard him say but rather chose to ignore. “I need to use the restroom,” he said but I still ignored him. “Dickhead!” I cursed before entering the hospital room. Looking bewildered, I couldn’t believe the person I was also seeing. Someone who despised me with her whole heart. “Hey Addison,” I greeted with a crooked smile as she scowled at me. Addison was always with a scowl, I wondered how Chloe was friends with her. Chloe was always happy while Addison was always the opposite. So uptight and annoying! Breathi
