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. "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 “Mrs. Bourne, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting,” an unfamiliar voice said, pulling me out of my reverie. “Dr. Sanchez?” “She isn’t in today, so I’ll be your doctor for today. I am Dr. Leo,” he stretched out his hands, but I ignored it, causing him to chuckle lightly. My heart had been thumping hard in fear. I didn’t know what to expect, as it had been over fifteen to twenty minutes since I was asked to wait. “Are you…” he started, staring at me before adding softly, “I’m here for the results,” I said, pulling him back to the present. “Yeah, right. Back to the results. I do have bad news and good ones, of course,” he said, smiling softly at me, perhaps to clear the already tense air. But I was in no mood to smile. All I needed right now was to know what was wrong with me before it broke my marriage completely. Lucas wasn’t coming home, just like the past few weeks. He had sent me a message to check on myself, as I had been looking malnourished despite t

    Zyrielle’s POV “Cheryl, baby.” His moan suddenly rang. I pushed in my tracks, This wasn’t happening to me! Cheryl Walker, his model ex, had broken him and his business before I had stepped in. As though under the influence, I walked back into the room and pushed Lucas off before carelessly hitting a naked Cherly. “You slut!” “YOU FUCKUNG LEFT HIM WHEN HE NEEDED YOU!” She didn't get to waltz back in and style all I had put into the marriage, not after all she had done to him. "Elle, are you crazy?" I heard Lucas ask before he threw me away like I weighed nothing. My hands instinctively protected my flat stomach before my fragile body hit the wall. “What the hell is wrong with you? How dare you lay a finger on my pregnant wife? You desperate bitch!" he growled. Feeling like it was the perfect time to act modest, he covered himself, and Ellie finally pulled the sheets in herself. I scoffed, trying to tell him once again that I was pregnant, but she cut me off. “How

    Zyrielle's POV “You, okay?" I was sure I looked like hell. No one going through what I was going through would be okay. "Bad breakup?” he asked while he mixed drinks for another customer. "You know, I’ve got just the thing for you.” He poured a generous shot, his eyes locked on mine.“On the house, beautiful. You look like you could use a little pick-me-up.” I just needed anything to forget—the diagnosis, my failed marriage… everything. I downed the shot in one gulp, wincing as the alcohol burned my throat.“Men are scum,” I muttered, slamming my fist on the bar. I was already too tired of crying. The bartender chuckled, “Ah, I see. Well, I can’t argue with that. We can be a bit of a handful sometimes.” He leaned in closer, his voice dropping to a flirtatious whisper. “But not all of us are bad, I promise. Some of us are even worth a second chance.” I raised an eyebrow, a sneer playing on my lips. “Oh yeah? After wasting years of my life with this man and finally having the ch

    Zyrielle's POV A soft moan escaped my lips as I stirred away from the blinding sun seeping into the room. Yesterday's event was blurry, and I just didn't feel like getting out of bed rolling. I buried myself in the hard pillows beside me before letting out a groan. "hard...rock hard," Weird, I was certain that I had nothing of that much, and worse still, I had nowhere to go, so where the fuck was I? Ignoring the ache, I opened my eyes and took in the surroundings. It was a teal-green room mixed with a fair touch of white. This was neither my room nor anywhere familiar, and I needed something to calm down my raging headache. My eyes caught my reflection, and a gasp escaped my lips as it hit me: the unknown guy at the bar and I recalled laughter, tears, and whiskey-fueled conversations. My eyes traveled back to the rock-hard pillows and met his chest. Fuck! I had sex with the stranger I had met last night. As if his bare chest wasn't enough proof, my eyes trailed down under the

    Zyrielle's POV. Uncle? What the hell was going on here? The world around me spun while my face flamed in humiliation as all eyes fell on me. It was one thing to have a drunken affair; it was another for the entire world to know that I had an affair after being accused of seducing my ex-husband. "What is he saying, Zyrielle?" Lucas demanded, echoing everyone's thoughts even mine. The thought that we were live on TV made me wince. "I don't know this man." I tried denying but no one seemed to buy my story. Rain raised a brow but didn't say a word. Lucas chuckled darkly. "When I called you a slut, never would I have guessed that you slept with my uncle? Just how shameless can you be?!" He yelled while glancing at his uncle. “Uncle, I’m so sorry that this happened …” Lucas began and I couldn’t help but wish to disappear. “I’m sure she did this to get back to me, I didn’t even know you were back… I would have kept my slut of an ex-wife at bay…. Just like she did me, I'm

    Zyrielle's POV His words seemed to have an effect of my morale, Consumed with rage, I marched back into the TV station with a sneer on my face. I have had enough of Lucas's treatment of me. It was time to show him who was the boss. I headed toward the table and thrust the divorce papers in his hands, it hit him in the face causing him to disengage his hold from his bitch. "What the hell is this?" He asked as he leafed through the pages. I smirked at him, "My copy of the divorce papers. I'm now your ex-wife just like you wanted!” Phew, that sounded so good, grinned at the stunned pair. Lucas recovered first, and Cheryl followed shortly after. They released a chortle, and I folded my arms in acknowledgment. "You signed the divorce papers?" he repeated. "Well, I didn't think I stuttered, did I?" I replied calmly while picking my nails, "You're to sign the other part. I await you in court; I need to get my things." I replied and turned on my heels. "Who the hell do you think you

    Zyrielle's POV "Do you want me to do anything about it?" Rain spoke, drawing me out of my reverie. “About what?” He pointed at my phone. "You were talking to your parents, what do you want me to do about it?" I blinked slowly, trying to understand where all of these were coming from."You want to help me?" I repeated and he nodded. "Why?" "Why not?" He repeated and I blinked at him. He wasn't making any sense. Why would he want to help me? "I don't know what you want me from me, I mean you just met me, what?... A day, it's not even up to twenty-four hours. Why are you helping me?" I finished. He shrugged, catching me off guard again. My eyes unconsciously trailed down my ring finger at the glistening ring, the reluctance to talk about it was surprising… I didn’t want to let go of it as it brought me a sense of comfort. My eyes met his. "I don't see any reason why you should be hesitant about receiving help." He replied, his eyes boring into mine as if daring me to ans

    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
