Zyrielle's POV.

The conversation died a natural death when he realized that he couldn't do anything to make me bow to his whims.

Marcus had nothing on me so I was not going to give him the power to walk over me. "Glad to see that you can stand up for yourself. I felt my son was going to marry another spineless lady who would, for the fear of not offending me, take whatever I said into consideration. That would have been the perfect red flag and I would have disqualified her instantly." He turned it around

I smiled at his brainy attempt but was not going to take it seriously anymore. Some people refused to give respect simply because they felt they were better than others, and it was my duty to teach them that even if sometimes things were true, they still had to learn how to deal with every kind of person, no matter their background. I wasn't going to prove that I gave my company over to Lucas because Lucas was even doing a poor job of handling it. It was doing better under my contr

    Zyrielle's POV.Dinner went well the previous night because no one wanted to come downstairs again after the first ordeal. I was happy anyway that I didn't have to face the clan and start discussing something that was probably against my will. They were going to try and stop me from doing what I should but I didn't want to give them that chance. If I allowed it, I would have to continue for a very long time which was something that I didn't want at all. “Are you up for breakfast with the family or are you going to stay here all day?” Rain inquired from me. I shook my head because I didn't even know the answer to pick. I was tired and also weak from the stress of the previous night. I squinted as the morning sun filtered into my eyes when he opened the windows. “Arrgh. It's already morning.” I complained. I just wanted to hide myself under the duvet and not have to think about anyone or anything until it was time for me to leave. Rain's chuckle made me feel warm inside and I smile

    Zyrielle's POV. “Oooh, this looks pretty. You can wear this, it'll bring out your eyes.” Rain suggested it when I showed him a yellow sundress. “Are you sure it's because it brings tears to my eyes or because you love it so much and want me to wear it?” I inquired from him, catching on easily. I was beginning to understand him fairly well and knew when he was only teasing. That man was insatiable. “What if it's a mixture? I love the dress and I think it's going to bring out your eyes. I love the fact that it shows a little bit of flesh for everyone to see how beautiful you are, but also a warning for them not to come close so that they don't get burnt. You are like a wildflower whom they can only hope to have but would never enter into their nests.” “You are suddenly turning philosophical. I can imagine what the news is going to sound like. A business tycoon abandoning his first career and turning into a poet all because of a woman's dress.” I wrote In the air. Rain smiled softl

    Zyrielle's POV."Can you help me with my zipper?" A small voice spoke and I looked up. I was confused because I didn't see her the previous night but she was just so cute with her pigtails and wide eyes asking for help. "Oh, I can. Where is your mother?" Inquired from her stylishly as I adjusted her zipper. She looked like a shy person and it reminded me of when I was little. I was the most shy person in every room. As soon as people arrived in my house I always found a way of escaping. "My mom is with aunt Clara over there and they told me to go and play. My mother does not like disturbance whenever she is busy with the family." The little girl answered in a sad tone. Aww, my heart went out to her and it took every ounce of self-control in me not to move closer to her mother and stop this nonsense. If this girl continued this way she could be easily deceived by people who would show her affection. A parent should ignore whatever they were doing and attend to their kids as long as

    Author's POV.Melissa was angry at the fact that whatever she tried to do to make people see Zyrielle in a bad light ended up turning to good. There was no way that she would be able to win against this lady and it pained her to the core. If she had known that Cheryl wouldn't be able to handle situations like this she would have employed another person. She wasn't able to still get all the files that they needed to become made for life. She wasn't going to watch Lucas run the company down the drain before she acted. Her mother had called her to order yet she refused because that would mean she was succumbing to their leadership. "Everyone should listen to Zyrielle. She seems to be the only person with a functioning brain these days. It's so hard to find someone who doesn't want any problems in their lives." Natalie said. She had thought that her daughter-in-law was going to be as problematic as the other people Rain had brought home in the past where but this lady had shown class

    Zyrielle's POV.I spotted sheen in Rain's eyes immediately after his sister had apologized to him. It took a lot from her to do that I could tell and it also took a lot from him to accept the apology. I loved a family who knew their shortcomings and tried to amend their ways. It was so warming to watch because emotions flew around the house, I was only thinking about how they were going to be able to finally get their lives back in order. Rain might not seem like the conventional person but everyone deserved and needed love especially from loved ones. When one had the opportunity to get a loved one who understands the gravity of apologies and making up, it was always beautiful. "I accept all your apologies. Mom tells me you have cried your eyes out for the past few years." Rain said. A small smile appeared on Clara's face as she jumped into his arms causing him to jerk a bit before balancing his pose. "I'm sorry... I should have been more active when it happened. I didn't know what

    Zyrielle's POV.Warmth covered my fingers and I opened my eyes instantly to see who was in charge of doing that. It was Rain, he was humming softly under his breath and I recognized the tune to be Auld Lang syne. Where was I?Gazing around I noticed the white walls and already knew where this place was. I was admitted to a hospital. This isn't what I wanted at all. I just wanted to enjoy with the family but I guess my body decided that she had other plansHe didn't notice I was awake until I coughed and his head shot up. "Hey,... I'll call the doctor right away."I grabbed his arm firmly. "Do not bother about calling the doctor. I just want to rest for a bit and afterwards we can talk. Is that okay with you?" I inquired. The doctor was probably going to do the usual checkup to see how I was doing. I just hoped that this time there wasn't going to be pointing of torch lights to ascertain if my eyes were working perfectly. Rain looked tired yet attended to me like there was no proble

    Zyrielle's POV."Sorry for pulling that prank on you. We wanted everyone to get here before you could leave." Rain apologized but I ended up smiling. This was a good way to introduce themselves to me, and I appreciate their efforts. "Thank you all for coming to see me. I would never have imagined that this was possible." I mumbled feeling a bit shy. Natalie forced her way in through the small door. "Why is everyone standing outside? How are you doing now? I hope the baby's kicking well. You must have met the doctor I feared was going to take you away from my son." She said making me laugh a little. This woman was a very funny person and dealing with her required tact."He is a delight to behold."Rain grunted and I laughed at his actions. The doctor was truly attractive so there was no need for me to lie about anything. I just needed to go with the flow."Okay, then. Once you notice my son acting up, I permit you to go with him. He would treat you better than my son would ever do an

    Rain's POV.Watching Zyrielle walk down the makeshift aisle was a delight because this time I could feel the change in the air. She was more open to being with me than before when it was forced. She was a true blushing bride. Jenny served as our emergency little bride and she handled the situation perfectly. "You look handsome today uncle Rain." She remarked when she got closer to me and sprinkled some flowers on the floor. My father walked Zyrielle down the aisle and I couldn't have felt prouder of my family than this way. They had totally surprised me. I would never have thought that they had it in them to be this romantic and thoughtful despite how much we had fought. Clara was one of the makeshift bridesmaids with my cousin Sarah. This promise was fun and I was up for it. I wanted this to be remarkable hence the reason I didn't do the conventional wedding plans. This was intimate and memorable and for someone like Zyrielle who was sentimental, this was the perfect way to get he

    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
