Zyrielle's POV.

Of all the things that could be sent about Lucas, this was the last thing that I would have expected from him. I knew that he would probably be involved in some shady deals but not to this extent. This was problematic, and I thought about it; I probably dodged a bullet. If he was involved in some trafficking like this lady claimed, that meant that my life would not have been safe with him and this was the best option.

At that moment, I was thankful that Rain had saved me. Lucas always presented himself like someone who couldn't hurt a fly and that was one of the reasons I fell for him. How did he grow from having nothing to getting control over my mother's business and still being greedy enough to get into another phase?

"You don't talk about my son that way. If you have a problem with him, you should deal with it instead of trying to pour your frustration on someone who just wanted to have a child. I was the one who pushed for it; now that he is backing out, why don

    Author's POV. The sound of his phone ringing cut his attention from the Zoom meeting he was having. He glanced at his second phone and realized that it was my mother calling. Every time she put the call to him it was always a problem or the other, and quite frankly, he did not have the time no energy to discuss any problematic situation. "Are you with all Mr Lucas?" His Indian partner, Mr Roshan inquired. Swiping a finger across the screen, ending the call, and focusing his attention on the people before me. They were going to produce more results than his nagging mother would."I was only a bit distracted for a moment," he replied to them before looking at the charts that were drawn across the screen. He was yet to answer because he felt like it was not necessary. He just wanted a partnership with them, but they were looking at the long time that he had truly not seen between them. If they had access, why did they not go ahead to find other partners? This was a win-win situation

    Rain's POV. I sauntered into Zyrielle's former house just right in time to see my step-sister pointing at her angrily, and I grew mad. She had no right to speak to her in any derogatory manner. If it wasn't for the fact that I knew that Zyrielle was only trying to focus on the positives and not deal with the negatives right away, I knew the things that I would have done to them. Despite her resistance, I was still very active in bringing Lucas down. His businesses were collapsing and I was buying out all his shares. He had to feel the heat even without me talking. "Nice to see you come into my house uninvited." Melissa began sarcastically but I had nothing to say to her besides the fact that she didn't deserve any form of attention beyond that which she had received. "It's amazing to see you again sister," I said sarcastically. Melissa's gaze took a wild gleam as she realized that she couldn't intimidate me into doing whatever she wanted, "Have you no shame? Snooping around? What

    Zyrielle's POV. "And that's my cue to leave," Zyrielle spoke, seizing that opportunity to leave the house, with a small smirk on her face. Cheryl's face crumpled in shock as soon as they left, she had never imagined in her wildest dreams that she would be facing such. "You got a woman pregnant or what was Zyrielle saying?" She demanded from Lucas whose lips drew together in anger. He never expected her to understand what happened and also did not expect Zyrielle to come into his house unnoticed. "Maxwell!" He yelled, before walking to the door and flinging it open. "Maxwell!" He yelled again.This time Maxwell heard and began to run towards the house, his heart racing with every step he took. This was going to be a problem. He could already see his sack letter placed right in front of him as they let him go. He didn't know how to begin his explanations so that he did not get into trouble. "Tell me why an intruder was in my house yet you didn't deem it fit to tell me," Lucas deman

    Zyrielle's POV. My heart was still racing the minute I settled into the car. I thought of the various ways that things could go awry and how I might probably have not been able to bring myself out of such a situation. It wasn't going to be easy but I had made a conscious effort to find my way and not limit myself to what Lucas wanted me to be. He probably wanted me to be depressed and sad just because I could not have everything I wanted, but that wasn't going to work for me. If I wanted some level of success and revenge, I needed to be focused on my work. "Penny for your thoughts?" Rain's voice cut through my thoughts and I looked up."I want to start making some artwork," I told him and he blinked in surprise. "Tell me that's a lie. I never knew you were gifted in such an area. Is this true?" Rain inquired all at once and I found myself chuckling, forgetting the fact that I was a bit sad."Of course, I had always had a penchant for lovely designs but didn't think it was going to

    Rain's POV.This was my queue to invest in more research so that I could find a solution to her health problems. I would not be able to do anything if she was giving up so soon. There was absolutely nothing that was going to work for her anymore. This would make me relax my resolve and contact Dr Sanchez because he was the only doctor she trusted. Even if it was against my will, I would have no choice but to do it. "Are you angry at me because of what I said?" Zyrielle's soothing voice broke into my thoughts and I looked up. My mind was in disarray as I thought of the possibility of her not being here anymore just before her time. "No, we've concluded that it's not going to come up again right?" I inquired from her. The last thing I wanted was for her to talk about death like it was something trivial. I was triggered when it came to stuff like this and didn't want her to continue making light of the situation I was going to find a way to get her back on her feet. This was one of

  • Accidentally Married To My Ex's Uncle   Chapter Eighty-Four

    Zyrielle's POV. My visit to the doctor there's no longer so annoying because I now had a sense of belonging. Even if I wasn't going to scale through the process, I knew that they would be a proper guardian for my kids and that alone was able to give me some sense of relaxation. I didn't want a situation where I would have to stress myself so much just to be able to get a point across. "You look very well. I could almost not recognize you." Dr Sanchez joked the minute I stepped into his office, eliciting a smile out of my lips. It was true that the fastest way for recovery was happiness. Rain had made everything easy for me and right now I felt so relieved knowing him. It definitely wasn't easy but I still had lots of peace in my soul. Sometimes whenever I had delusional or suicidal thoughts, I simply remembered that he was not going to take it lightly if he knew what I was thinking about and that helped to solve a lot of problems than usual. He might not know what he was doing fo

    Zyrielle's POV. The weight of the news hit me hard in my chest as I waited for him to finally tell me more. There was absolutely nothing that would stop me from becoming happy because my unhappiness wasn't going to perform a miracle. "Lovely news I must say. Is there any remedy or is it final? Why have you stopped me from going for the surgery? I thought it was supposed to be correctional?" His demeanor changed instantly. I challenged him about the procedure. He was not even thinking about me anymore. I could see that he had anger written all over him. "This is the usual procedure but I was only trying to sugar coat things because I do not want you to fall into depression but now that you are back on your feet, I think it's high time that I told you the truth." He replied sternly. I had never experienced such a dismissive reply in my entire life but I didn't want to take it to heart. He was showing his true colors because he realized that there were no chances with me anymore. It

    Zyrielle's POV. I dropped my bag on the table making me sigh out in fear. Although I might have said that I was not bothered anymore but this was my life we're talking about and there was absolutely no way that I wasn't going to think about stuff. It was just a way of me defending myself before Sanchez so that he didn't find anything against my husband and I. I was of the opinion that if someone was trying his best to make things work, it wasn't our place now to try and pull down his efforts. Rain was trying his best to make sure that I had a perfect life, he probably never wanted me to suffer a day in my life and I was grateful to have such a person around my corner. I didn't want to suffer just to prove what not, it would have been better if there were probably a lot of people around who considered it a bit worthy to show their strength but not me The kitchen door opened instantly and Meg walked out. I was thinking of employing another help so that she could be relieved of her du

    Zyrielle's POV. "He hits you?" I inquired from her softly. "Tell me you are lying Cheryl. I know that this might be a ploy for you to begin your pity party but..." "Why would I lie about something like that? I am a victim of abuse. Why do you think I demanded a divorce from him? I can play you the videos so that you know that I am not lying." Cheryl said. I refused to believe that she was enduring abuse yet never said anything. Well it could be because she wanted to have everything to herself and right now it was backfiring sweetly. "My goodness... Are you kidding me?" I replied, waiting for her to deny it. She shook her head pitifully and in that instant I didn't know what else to do. "I wouldn't lie about something as grave as that. I am happy that he is behind bars but let's be factual, he wouldn't be staying there for a long time. When he comes out, he would only continue from where he stopped and that is where you come in. You will have to help me fight him. It would be our

    Zyrielle's POV. Although a few days had passed yet I couldn't shake off the nagging feeling in my head that I hadn't seen the end of Lucas. He was going to do something one way or the other. I still walked in fear hoping that he was just bluffing and there weren't any nudes on the internet waiting to be released. These thoughts ate deeply into my subconscious and gradually I was beginning to lose my patience. Brenda noticed this because she handled all my meetings with ease and told me to get some rest. It was easier said than done, especially with everything that was going on. A knock drew me out of my thoughts, making me look up. Brenda walked in with a smile on her face. "You have a visitor. Cheryl." She spoke. I wasn't in the mood to discuss with Cheryl despite expecting her after all this while. I knew she was going to come up with something more like an accusation but I wasn't ready to dive into that. I nodded anyway. Putting our meeting off was not going to solve the probl

    Zyrielle's POV.Right at that moment a lot of things went wrong with my mental health. I couldn't breathe properly, I began to think of how the media was going to go agog with the current development. I couldn't even fathom how I was going to be able to walk around except if I to prove that it wasn't me in any of those clips he threatened to pull out. "You must be the most delusional person that I have ever met in my entire life. How do you think this is going to favor you in any way? You came here with the intention to threaten us to do what? Will the company to you?" Rain piped up. I wasn't even sure that he had any videos of me but coming from someone who was this desperate, had this sinister plan before I could even find out, nothing was impossible with him. Lucas threw his head backwards and began to laugh. "I wouldn't give out my trade secrets now would I? I came to make a proposition. It's either you return the shares you bought or I do exactly what I said. It doesn't take m

    Chapter 117. Zyrielle's POV. "Wakey wakey, rise and shine my sweetheart we need to leave as soon as possible." Rain dragged my feet from under the bed making me grimace in mock anger. I definitely didn't mind whatever he wanted from me as long as it gave me peace. "I told you I had a meeting earlier today. Can we take some time before traveling?" I negotiated so that I could sleep in more. "Nope, because I know you don't have anywhere to go. Courtesy of Brenda who has informed me of your schedule beforehand. So what other excuse do you have?" He inquired, making me a bit worried. "Should I be worried about your stalkerish tendencies?" I grinned into the blanket refusing to show my face. He knew what he was doing and I also wanted to beat him at his game. "Yep... That's why I need you to stand and confront me about it. You cannot just allow me to get away with my stalkerish tendencies." He made quotes in the air. There was no winning with Rain. This man was a smooth neg

    Lucas' POV.Cheryl entered my room with a small smile on her face and now I was stunned by this attitude. "Why do you have such a long face? Is anything the matter?" She inquired and I looked around to confirm if she was truly talking to me. "You're acting weird. What's with the newly found attitude? Why are you smiling so much?" I demanded from her. I had a lot of projects at hand and the last thing I wanted to get involved with was making sure that she dampened my mood the most. "Why don't you just keep calm for a minute?" She said, rocking on her feet. "I can't keep calm. I just want some answers from you. How far have you gone with Zyrielle?" "What suddenly makes her your friend? I thought that you wanted me never to talk to her in the first place." I replied. "You warned me categorically to stay away from her so why the useless questions?" She giggled softly before walking towards me. "That was because you refused to defend me in front of your family and watched me get ridic

    Zyrielle's POV. That wasn't going to suffice. "Love doesn't cut it most times," I replied angrily before heaving a deep sigh so that I didn't come across as a problematic fellow. Not a lot of things required immediate action. Sometimes, it was good to leave a lot unsaid so that there weren't any worries."I guess what I'm trying to make you understand is that... I would like my opinions to be taken into consideration. I know that you love me. You might want to pay deeper attention to my needs. I'm not done irrational being that would deliberately want to stir up strife simply because I want to. Believe me when I say that I don't like friction between us... I just hate it when I'm not being heard." I flung my arms in the air.He rolled his eyes at my outburst, probably not seeing any sense in my complaints. Well, that was his business because I was going to state my points. "Lucas is trying to get under your skin and you are simply letting him. I know that you might try to deny his i

His nose flared in anger as the words poured out of his mouth. "I don't think you should care about that," I mumbled out. "Are you kidding me right now?" He inquired from me but that was the least of my worries. "You don't think that I would be worried about you? Worried about my nephew coming here after warning him not to? He could harm you!" He slammed his hand against my desk and I jumped. I fixed him with a blithe stare. "Do you want to kill me?" I inquired from him. "I could leave if you want to express your anger," I added before picking up my bags. It wasn't as though I had much inspiration anyway. "You going nowhere till we are done with this conversation." Now he was getting on my last nerve. "I don't want to have any arguments with you. I just want to take a nap and forget th
