"Samuel's point of view,"
"Mr. Oscar, Following your instructions, I've brought Scarlett Neve here." I was sitting in my office waiting for her when my PA notified me of Scarlett's arrival.
"Well, you still have revealed nothing to her about me, do you?" I closed the open file on the table in front of me.
"No, Mr. Oscar, I lied just as you had instructed me to, to bring her here." My PA responded gently.
"Okay, you may send her to my office." I put on the coat hanging on my chair and turned my chair in the other direction so that she could not see my face when she entered my office.
I never imagined that one day I would summon the girl whose face I never wanted to see again. but all its all i have to do just because of my mother.
"May I come in, Mr. Brown?" I raised my hand in the air and motioned for Scarlett to enter after hearing her voice.
"Mr. Brown, Your PA informed me you were interested in hiring me and that you liked my resume." She took a stride toward my chair.
"If you like my offer, we may continue discussing it further, but if you want to see your employment offer, it's in the green file on my desk." I motioned for her to remain on the opposite side of the table without moving my chair.
She grabbed the file left on the table and began flipping through the pages without uttering a word. My heart raced each time she turned a new page in the file.
Will she accept my proposal? My anxiety made me feel horrible. yes she have to."What kind of proposal is this, Mr. Brown?" She closed the file and placed it back on the table.
Her voice was not angry, yet after hearing her inquiry, I can tell that she was unhappy with my proposition."I want to get married to you and accept this kid." I still lack the confidence to confront her.
"Mr. Brown, How did you learn about my child, and why do you wish to marry me?" She inquired as she approached my chair.
"I want to take responsibility for my error by marrying you since I know quite that I am the father of this child." I don't need to lie to her any longer since I am not one of those who hide from their mistakes out of fear; instead, I am one of those who face them up.
"Samuel Oscar?"
She was stunned to see my face as soon as I turned my chair to face her."I want this child to be born, and in exchange, I will pay for your mother's medical care in full. Scarlett Neve."
"So you tricked me into coming here so you could try to haggle me over my kid." It filled her eyes with anger.
"You're right; I lay to get you here. I knew you wouldn't have come if I'd told you the whole truth." I remarked as I stood up from my chair and moved toward her.
"I will not marry you, and I want to make it plain that you have no parental rights over this child. This child is solely mine." She kept her hand on her stomach to conceal it from my view.
No one would realize she is two months pregnant based on the size of her belly, yet I am certain that two months have gone by since that night. I always ask Scarlett's gynecologist for updates on how she is doing.
"How is it possible, Miss Neve, that I have no right to this child? Even though you know well that this child is mine," I took her hand off her stomach while keeping my hand on her stomach.
"Samuel, please don't touch me.
You have already paid the price for spending the night with me, and you have punished me even for that mistake, which I did not commit; this child is only mine, and you have no claim on it; whatever happened between us that night was only because of your wrath." Although she tried to stop the tears from falling from her eyes, a drop eventually made it to her pink cheeks."I know already that I erred, and by getting married to you, I want to make it right. You only need to enter a marriage contract with me. Despite this, we will both be allowed to live our lives as single individuals while appearing to be a married couple in the outside world. Just give birth to my child, and in exchange, I will pay for all of your mother's medical care." The tears running down her cheeks kept drawing my attention.
"You're perfectly right, Mr. Oscar; this kid directly results from your one error. However, I refuse to offer you another chance to make amends for it. I will undoubtedly give birth to this child, but he or she will have nothing to do with you. In terms of my mother's treatment, you've already paid the spending price that night with me.
Mr. Samuel Oscar, then I reject your contract. Please let me live in peace now." She grabbed the file on the table, tore the pages out, and hurled them in my face."Mr. Oscar, I hope that my response was quite clear and that you won't bother me again." Before stepping out of my office, she said,
As she left my office; I watched her in silence."Scarlett neve, You made a mistake by rejecting my offer. I am quite aware of how to convince you to marry me. I will do anything to have my child. You won't be able to take my child away from me with such ease, I promise."
I made the call after pulling out my phone from my pocket.
"You carry out my every instruction, keeping in mind that you must complete this work before Miss Neve arrives.""Scarlett Neve This time, you won't have a choice but to agree to my proposal." I mumbled, observing the scattered pieces of paper.
"Scarlet's point of view,""Samuel Oscar, what do you want? How dare you treat me like this!" As soon as I walked into his office, I confronted him with my rage. "Oh, Miss Neve, how did you get here? Have you got any crucial work to do with me?" He took the file off his face and grinned evilly while turning to face me. "Stop acting like a fool; you know why I've come here." Before this, I did not know that Samuel Oscar was such a terrible and shallow man; I had only ever heard praise for him in the media. However, his behavior toward me has shown the diabolical nature that lurks beneath his seemingly sweet exterior. "Okay, Miss Neve, I like girls like you who don't overthink things and speak with clarity." He stood up from his chair and walked over to me."I want to marry you and have my child with you." "I already declined your offer; why didn't you get my point right away?" I moved back to get away from him. "Well, I get what you're saying completely, but this time you came
"Scarlett's point of view,"I have agreed to marry a man who I hardly even know, giving in to my compulsions. I've either read about Samuel Oscar in business magazines or heard about him on television news programs. Clara never provided me with any precise details regarding Samuel. I feel as though my life is a nightmare in which I keep tumbling down a deep well yet cannot shout because I can't raise my voice high enough. I returned to the hospital and went to my mother's room. However, my mother was not in that room; instead, a different patient was lying on that bed. Where did my mother suddenly vanish? Have the staff members at the hospital discharged my mother? But after agreeing to all of Samuel's demands, why has Samuel interfered with my mother's medical care? "We have moved your mom to the VIP room, Miss Neve.""What?" My mother's nurse told me as I was on my way to ask about my mother at the hospital reception. They moved my mother to a VIP room, but why? "Even the hos
"Scarlett's point of view,"The repeated alarms jolted me awake. Today is the big day—my wedding. Like most women, I had many fantasies about my future husband. Alas, fate had other plans for me, and I shall be married to a devil instead of a prince. Do you still have the same perspective on him? My subconscious begs me to overlook Samuel's prior transgression of his recent good deeds, but my heart is in no way prepared to do so. For the sake of my mother and my unborn child, I am getting married to him. Again, I reaffirmed my purpose in my mind. But what if you developed feelings for him after getting married? Samuel Oscar looks unmistakably like a Greek god. In front of him, a flurry of female bodies is always in motion. He can hypnotize any female with just one look. But it has been challenging for me to feel affection for him after the horrible form I saw him in that evening. "Miss Neve, good morning." My phone's display flashed an unknown number. I struggled to say good mo
"Scarlett's point of view,""Scarlett, what makes you stare at me so strangely?" Seeing me, the woman inquired. "How are you here?"What this woman is doing in this place is still a mystery to me. "Oh, Scarlett, that's my mother." Samuel spoke in a low voice as he drew near to my ear. "What?" His statements caught me off guard. What have I done, oh no? How am I so careless? I had told all the things of my heart, considering that woman a stranger, but this woman is actually Samuel's mother. "Sorry, Aunty, I didn't recognize you." To conceal my shame, I closed my eyes. "Scarlett, no worries." While embracing me, the woman said. "You can still share all your secrets with me as a friend because my son is unaware of the talk we had that day." She whispered into my ear. "What?" I gave that woman another confused glance. "Scarlett, please call me Mom instead of Aunty;" I can tell that woman is only pretending to be happy. It filled her eyes with many questions, as I could see. "Mo
"Scarlett's point of view,""Good morning, Scarlett. How are you? We haven't spoken in a while." It caught me off guard when Clara appeared in front of me. And the longer I watched, the more shocked I became at what she was doing in Samuel's lap. What is she doing in Samuel's lap if she congratulates us on our marriage like other guests have? No, this is not possible. I must be dreaming, I guess. Samuel told me that he and Clara are no longer dating, so I don't understand their seeming closeness. Did Samuel mislead me? I regarded him with skepticism. Upon seeing him, I had the impression that he was not at all concerned by my presence. He was curled up in a comfortable position, his head resting on Clara's neck. "Honey, your new wife just walked in the door, and she wants to join you for breakfast." Running her fingers through his hair, Clara whispered, "I have no desire to converse with this girl. You instruct her to leave this part of the house." While nibbling on Clara's nec
"Samuel's point of view,""Samantha, please serve breakfast to Madam." She lingered with her bag back to the hallway. "I'll prepare my morning meal." She gave Samantha the go-ahead to enter the kitchen. I am not at all interested in dealing with this girl's temper tantrum, but I am compelled to due to the condition of my mother. I didn't want to see Scarlett's face after that night, but because of my mother's terms, I had to not only propose to her, but also marry her and bring her into this house with me. Since she entered the house, I have felt suffocated. I had to make up many falsehoods to marry her, including the one about my fictitious separation from Clara. I had to present a convincing and false front to her mother. I had to resort to coercion to convince her after she refused my marriage proposal outright. Besides my mother's terms, I had another reason to marry her. She tore up the contract in front of me and tossed it into bits after initially rejecting my proposal. I m
"Scarlett's point of view,""Madam, are you all right?" I was sitting alone in my room, crying, when Samantha opened the door to my room. "Yes, I'm fine." I responded while blotting my eyes. "You don't need to act fake in front of me, Madam; I am well aware of your heart issue. My husband has abandoned me for another woman." There was a flash of pain in her eyes. Although I have no objection to Samuel and Clara cohabiting, I am concerned about his poor attitude. These people have accused me of things I haven't done. When he wrenched my hand, tears started to spring up in my eyes, but I immediately understood that I couldn't show vulnerability in front of him. He is already aware of one of my weaknesses; if I start to fear his torture, he will undoubtedly continue to bother me. No, I won't allow this to happen. He's trying to bother me since I do all the housework by myself, but I don't care; in fact, I was pleased to see his irritated expression when I didn't respond to his comm
"Samuel's point of view,""What's taking so long to make dinner? I'm starving." As soon as I got home and showered, I made my way straight to the dining room. Even though I know the meal isn't going to be ready since it's just 7 o'clock and I usually eat around 9:30, I figure it's an excellent excuse to annoy Scarlett. "Sir, you generally have dinner after 9 p.m., so why are you eating so early today?" Upon emerging from the kitchen, Samantha posed a query to me. "Why can't I eat dinner early at home?" Samantha's habit of asking leading questions drives me crazy, and I often consider firing her because of it. Yet she has been my maid for a long time, and I trust her, so I usually just let it go. What if I offer Samantha a short vacation? I questioned my subconscious. This maid prevents me from adequately punishing Scarlett. But if Samantha departs, Scarlett will be left to do all the household chores by herself. Yes, I desire the same thing. However, in addition to harming her,
"Scarlett's point of view,"One year later, ****"Please get ready quickly, Scarlet; it's getting late." Samuel called out from the corridor. "Samuel, I need your help. I'm not able to handle everything by myself." I dressed Elena. "Scarlet, I sent you out of the office early, so why are you running late?" He came into my room and stared at me, bewildered. "I thought you were her bridesmaid, but you still haven't gotten dressed." Samuel expressed his displeasure to me. "Samuel, stop acting like a typical husband. My circumstance is no secret to you; managing a multi-billionaire company while caring for your twin children is no picnic." I gave him a furious glance. My constant disarray, both in appearance and behavior, was a constant target of his taunting critique. "You want to do everything on your own because you don't trust your husband, even though I didn't ask you to take on too much work at the workplace." Now his mocking gets on my nerves. "Stop taunting me, Samuel. You
"Scarlett's point of view,""Samuel, please take me to the hospital; I'd like to meet Clara.""What? Are you crazy? Do you no longer remember what she did to you?" He inserted his fork into his dish fiercely. "Don't be upset, Samuel; I remember what she did to me.""What makes you want to meet her, though?" "As I have already pardoned her for her transgressions.""What made you so quick to forgive her?" Samuel balled his fist in frustration. "Samuel, it's time for us to forgive her, as she has already dealt with her karma." "Sorry, Scarlet, my heart isn't as huge and kind as yours; you can do whatever you want, but don't ask me to drive you to the hospital." He got out of his chair. "Okay, Samuel, you are not required to accompany me." "Scarlet, what do you mean? Don't tell me you are going to meet that woman without my permission." "You got me correct, my dear husband; I am going to meet her today." "Scarlet, I am not allowing you to go meet her." He abruptly paused and gave
"Scarlett's point of view,""Mama." "Elan, my son." I screamed aloud. "Scarlet, what happened? How you're feeling right now." Samuel's voice reached my ears. "Look, Samuel, I think Elan is right here with me; I heard his voice. Where is my son?" I opened my eyes, looking around for any sign of Elan. "Scarlet, you don't need to worry about your children. Just relax. They're doing fine." Samuel extended a glass of water to me. "Are you telling the truth?""Yes, my dear wife. Our kids are fit and fine. They were waiting for you to wake up right here.""You are lying, that's for sure. I have no faith in you. If they were waiting for me, why can't I see them?" Samuel's word is hard for me to trust because he can do anything to soothe me right now. "Trust me, Scarlet—they were in this room just before you woke up, and they were right here.""No, I'm not going to trust you." I shook my hand in rejection. "Why do you not have faith in me? Tell me why I would deceive you." He grinned
"Samuel's point of view,""Please open your eyes, Scarlet." I gave her a little tap on the cheek to rouse her. She fainted from the fumes. "Harry, she is not opening her eyes; I think we have to take her to the hospital." I turned to face Harry. "Relax, Samuel; she'll be OK in a few minutes. We can't leave until we find your children." I don't know how he can be so calm in this kind of circumstance. As a mafia member, he may have dealt with situations similar to this one daily, but the entire circumstance scares me. "Water." Scarlett's voice reached my ears. "Thank God you're okay, Scarlet." I gave her a happy forehead kiss. "Are we still alive?" With bafflement, she glanced at me. "Yes, we are." I smiled at her question. "Where are my children, Samuel?"It's hard for me to respond to her inquiry. How could I tell her that they were lost now? "Clara ran off with our children. With any luck, Harry could save us.Scarlet, please relax first; we will find another way to find our
"Scarlett's point of view,""Scarlet, are you ready?" He pulled up the automobile in front of a wooden house. "Humm, I am ready." I nodded in accord. "Samuel, please find a good woman and marry her if she kills me today so that my children will never experience the need of their moms." I met his gaze with watery eyes. "Scarlet, don't cry; you won't suffer any consequences. We have no intention of endangering your life; our only purpose is to take back our children from Clara. Apply this perfume all over before you step out of the car." He extended a perfume bottle to me. "Samuel, this cologne smells awful to me. If I apply this scent to my body, I lose control over my vomiting." Smelling the perfume bottle, I covered my mouth to contain my vomit. "I know it will be hard for you to tolerate the scent of this perfume, Scarlet, but I was in a rush and only found this flavor. Please, don't throw up." With an imploring look, he asked me. "Please don't give me these puppy eyes; I'm us
"Samuel's point of view,""Samuel, could you please tell me what's going on now? Why did you take me inside the house with so much caution?" She regarded me with suspicion. What do I tell her now? I'm afraid she won't believe me if I tell her the truth—that her life is in danger. She is still unaware of her enemy. She believes she has no enemies, but she has entirely forgotten about her animosity with Clara. "Samuel, why are you silent? Please respond to my query. I want to know who kidnapped my children." She grew anxious to learn the identity of the kidnapper. "I'll tell you everything in detail, but first, Scarlet, please calm down." She would undoubtedly not believe me when I told her the truth, but I could no longer keep this a secret from her because of her restlessness. "Samuel, don't put too much pressure on her; she isn't ready to accept the reality." I was almost ready to spill the beans when I was interrupted by Harry's warning about Scarlet's pregnancy. "Which truth a
"Scarlett's point of view,""Where are my kids, mom?" He looked in our direction. "I left them in the passenger seat; check properly. They are going to be there." Jenny gave him an anxious response. "No, Mom, I searched all over for them and couldn't find them.""What? Samuel, what are you talking about? Where they can vanished from the locked car?" Anxiety caused Jenny's once-luminous face to turn blue. "Where are my kids, Samuel? Please find them; if they are lost, I will not be able to survive." I turned around to check on my children. "Scarlet, please don't cry. They are safe; we will find them." Samuel attempted to comfort me. I had missed them throughout my entire trip. I was looking forward to meeting them with great anticipation, but now I'm devastated. "Samuel, you take care of Scarlet; I will go find them nearby." Jenny left us to find Elan and Elena on her own. "I want my kids, Samuel.""Let's go home, Scarlet; we'll find them." After three hours of searching, we we
"Samuel's point of view,""The flight is about to land, Scarlet. Please wake up." To rouse her, I shook her hand. "Samuel, please give me a little more time to sleep." She shifted her face to the other side to get more sleep. She dozed off the whole way. I was bored while she was asleep. I sat here and watched this sleeping beauty. I felt horrible for my erroneous behavior as I thought back to our old memories. Why couldn't I see her innocence? But I'm glad I was able to fix my mistakes. Everything in our lives has been resolved now. Our journey together, which began with a forced marriage, is now undertaken with care and affection. I wanted to have a conversation with her, but she was sound asleep, oblivious to anything around her. She didn't seem to be interested in eating when I tried to rouse her up for breakfast. She is constantly a sleeping panda during her pregnancy. It's my fault that I kept her awake all night long-not her pregnancy, this time. She begged me last night t
"Scarlett's point of view,""I can feel their eyes on us, Samuel." He's busy flying his rocket within me, but I'm not loving it. "Who's watching us now?" He ceased his thrusting inside me and cast a bewildered glance at me."the starfish and other sea creatures." I gestured at the starfish, clinging to the glass ceiling. "You are so witty, Scarlet." Upon laying eyes on the starfish, a smile spread across his face. "What makes this so funny?" I showed him a disapproving look. Why did he chuckle at everything I said, I don't understand. "That starfish will not tell anyone about our romantic encounters, so don't be concerned and let me win your stamina challenge." He pushed inside me once more. "Aha! Please, Samuel, be gentle." His desire is what drives his reckless behavior. You questioned him, so now you have to deal with the consequences. My subconscious mocked me. What should I do now? Because of the incredible heat he generated with his touch, I now can not quench my raging
