Ninety-ThreeChloe"What the hell happened to you?!" Addie yelled as soon as I stepped foot into the house. Her eyes were wide with wonder, running over my outfit. I could imagine how I looked in her sight. Whatever makeup was left on my face had been wiped off. My lips were swollen, and my hair was scattered and rough, looking like it had been grabbed several times. The upper part of my gown was torn and ripped. Nathan had been quite the animal about it. And for the life of me, I still thought it was hot. There was something so primal, so fucking male and enticing about that action. I badly wanted to see him do that to my panties. Exactly the sort of thinking that got us into this mess, you idiot. Why the hell did I still think he was hot? I should be remorseful. I had allowed myself to be touched and played with at the expense of my parent's company! Mr. Park Hudson left! He must have arrived by the time Nathan had carted me off into his car like a fucking Neanderthal! And befor
Ninety FourNathanI stumbled out of my car, heart racing and my mind a whirlwind of emotions. I could barely believe what had happened. After three long years of avoiding each other, we had finally come face to face again, and I had kissed her.No fuck that. I had done more than kiss her. As I made my way home, I couldn't shake the feeling of excitement and guilt that coursed through me. I knew that I shouldn't have done it, but the moment had felt too powerful to resist. I had missed her so much, missed the way her hair fell in soft waves around her face and the way her eyes sparkled when she laughed.Would I ever see her laugh again? Soft sweet and free as always? We made a good pair. That much had been obvious when I held her in my car. My face buried in her soft feminine form. Her taste on my lips. Sweet Lord! But even as I relished the taste of her lips on mine, I knew that there was something holding her back. Lily. Chloe had been angry with me for so long, and I didn't b
CHAPTER 95NATHAN“Dude, feels like I haven’t seen you in forever,” Cam exclaimed when I walked into my office two days after the whole fissco with Chloe.Dressed in a camo get up that matched his happy go lucky hair do. I could see how women nalways thought they could rely on him without realizing how lethal he could be. The dude was literally a walking tower of secrets. “You saw me two days ago,” I grunted, leaning against my chair. I had barely slept in the npast forty eight hours and honestly I wanted rest so bad. I doubted I would be getting any though. Not with Chloe haunting my dreams and driving me nuts with the cinstant teasing and guilt tripping. I needed help. That ,much was becoming obvious. “Feels like forever.” Cam sighed flopping onto the chair before me with a flourish. “Oh stop being dramatic, you big ninny.” I mocked.“I’m the ninny? Im not the one who ran off after having some spat with his ex wife!” He retorted. “What the fuck man?! Way to hit me below the belt
Chloe"Hey," Addison mumbled. I paused, stirring the cake batter I had been busy with and glanced up at her. The somber look on her face told me that we needed to talk.And I dreaded the thought of it already. For the past two days I had avoided everyone like the plague, eager to be alone, to break down my wired thoughts and analyze them with a clear head. I had called David, telling him in limited words, how I had flopped the meeting with Park Hudson. Very limited words, all I had done was yell "I messed up" like a fool and hung up the phone. He had called several times after that but there was no way in hell that I would tell him what went down exactly. Heck I was going to take it to my damn grave if I could. "What's up?" My voice came out hoarse from lack of use. "What... What are you making?" Addy asked, stepping beside me and peering into the cake pan. "Uh what's that supposed to be?" "Cake," I grunted , eyeing the orange mass in the pan. "Why is it orange? Carrots?" Sh
Nathan"Please..." Her soft voice washed over me, tbgling my nerve endings and driving me crazy to no end. "Chloe... Fuck youre not real, I know..." But I couldn't resist. We were in her bed. The room she had used when she lived with me. The familiar sheets were soft and crumpled under my weight. Chloe hovered above me, dressed in nothing but a flimsy robe. It was parted to reveal her sweet mounds, pale skin with pink nubile tips. Fuck me. How could a dream be so fucking realistic? It drove me mad as heck. And equally as hard. My hands fisted the sheets I laid on, trying not to succumb to the passion that poured through my veins and threatened to devour me alive. "Please Nath, please baby..." She panted straddling my thighs. Throbbing harder with each brush of her panties against me, I groaned. Too fucking real. "Won't you take care of me Nathan? Please? I really need your..." She trailed off, reaching between us to grip my had pulsing member. Her touch was as shy as I rememb
Ninety-EightNathan “Would you like to go inside?” I asked, gesturing at the entrance of the building. Eduardo tipped his head in a brief nod and I heaved a sigh of relief mentally. Despite his words, he had seemed quite apprehensive and I could not have that. For our plan to work, I needed him to trust me completely. But that was easier said than done. This man had destroyed many families, mine included. I was sure he had enemies in every part of the world, people that would pay to have his head on a fucking pike. He must know this as well. Know that without his entourage of bodyguards, he was a dead man walking. He had the right to be cautious or he could lose his head faster than he could say his name. We walked into the gigantic building, touring the rooms. The first compartment was a small room that would serve as an anteroom. “A receptionist could stay here, taking calls, welcoming customers, and all that,” I explained. “Preferably a pretty one.” That made the bastard
Chloe"Chloe, your phone is ringing! Please come get it, your ringtone sucks like shit!" Addison yelled from the living room. Groaning, I dragged myself from bed, landing on the ground with a thump. I had no desire at all to do shit. I just wanted to lay in bed all day if I could. I was so damn tired. And it wasn't even eight in fucking morning yet. "Chloe!" Addison screamed, drawing closer to my door. "I'm coming!" I screamed back. "Ew!" She yelled eliciting a laugh from me. "I did not need to know that, you bitch!" "That wasn't what I meant!" I retorted, crawling towards the door and pushing it open. "You just have a dirty mind in serious need of purging." She grinned then, waving my shrilling phone at me. "Send me to purgatory then will ya? Preferably with a hot priest. I'd send him straight up to heaven." I shook my head at her words and yanked the device out of her hands. The caller ID bore David's name. My brows furrowed. After my failure with Hudson, we had barely spoke
100.Nathan "Damn right, you shall," I thought fuming, anger at the injustice of the past few years surfacing again. This slick bastard needed to be buried 6 feet under, instead it was Noah whose corpse rotted away. Fighting to control myself, I forced a smile. "Excellent!" Eduardo replied, his face cracking open with a charming smile of his own and his hands extending for a firm handshake. "Who says you Gringos can't do business?"I shook it, fighting the urge to squeeze as hard as I could. "Now, I am in the mood for a drink," he continued, "hard business works up my thirst you know?" "I think I spied a great bar downstairs" I replied. Of course, I did. I had paid a fortune to have a state-of-the-art Tequila bar installed just for today, I wanted to see how drunk I could get him, drunk men talk. "Aha!" He exclaimed laughing heartily and slapping my shoulder with his beefy hand. "Mi amigo, mi amigo!". Turning to his secretary he grabbed my shoulder, smiling "I like this one, no bu
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
