Clara's POV

Derek now seemed more annoyed. He looked like he was ready to kick her out himself. This wasn't the time or place to start a fight. In any other situation, I would have been fine with seeing Derek kick her out himself, but this was not the place.

I wrapped my arm around Derek's. He relaxed slowly, and his grip on my hand tightened.

I bet it's hard enough when your parents get married to someone your age, but even worse if it's your grandparent.

"What is this pest still doing here?" Nicole asked, pointing at Madison.

"That's a good question. I'll have security throw her out." Derek answered.

Just when I thought my family was dysfunctional.

Derek was on his way to the security guard at the entrance when his grandfather stopped him. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," he said. "You know how much influence I have? More than half of these guests are also my business partners. If I leave, they'll go along with me, and we both know your little auction will never see the light of

    Clara's POVI closed the first aid kit, returning it to the cupboard where Derek had taken it out earlier.He seemed very tense today. I couldn't help but think it was all because of yesterday. It's not every day that your grandfather announces he is getting married, let alone to someone who tried to ruin your life.I was itching to ask him how he felt, but I didn't know how he'd react. If he was already this upset, he probably didn't want to talk about it either."Do you want to talk about what happened last night?" the words slipped out of my mouth."What about it?" He asked while running through some folders.Was it that traumatic for him that he had erased it from his mind?"You know. About Madison and your grandfather." I elaborated.His reaction surprised me. Instead, he broke into laughter. "Why would I be bothered by that?" he laughed. So he wasn't upset? "If anything, those two deserve each other. The sooner they destroy each other, the better.

    Clara's POV "We both have separate bedrooms," I explained.I heard Ivy choke as she gasped to breathe in.I sat up straight in full alert. Was she okay? Did I need to call someone to help her?She continued coughing and gasping, her breathing slowly returning to normal."You said what?" She asked, her voice distorted."We have separate rooms," I repeated hesitantly. I was worried she'd choke again, and this time she wouldn't recover."How else are you supposed to get pregnant?" She nearly yelled.That was her issue? I thought I'd already had this conversation."How will I explain why the baby is born more than five weeks later? I'm not about to dig another grave." I reasoned with her.She sighed. She probably had her face in her palms right now."Ivy!" I heard a deep voice in the background.Ivy fell silent. A few sounds followed in the background before everything fell to silence again."Who was that?" I asked, intrigued."Nothing, it's no one. You must have heard the TV." She answe

    Clara's POV I was relieved we had planned our meeting in a more public space. We settled into a lounge just behind the hotel reception area. There were several spaces with brown couches, all surrounding several tables. The brown couches matched the wooden floor and several parts of the ceiling. The place looked amazing. Surprisingly, there wasn't anyone else in the area.We sat around a table. He kept his cold gaze on me as an intimidating tactic. I'm pretty sure I can say that I have been through worse.All it took was a mare snap of his finger, and the waiter came running to our table, a teapot already in his hand. He motioned to the waiter to fill our cups. He waited for the waiter to leave before beginning."I'd like to know your plans regarding my grandson." He spoke.He picked up his cup of tea nonchalantly, pretending he hadn't insulted me.I should have known to prepare myself to be offended.He hadn't given me the chance to respond before moving on to his next statement."Wh

    Clara's POVThings couldn't have felt worse after my incident with Derek's grandfather. Derek was livid about everything, and I couldn't have felt more responsible and guilty about everything.We didn't spend much time at the resort after that. The next morning, we were on a flight back home. I slept through the flight back home, so I didn't have to speak to anyone.After everything he has done for me and how he has defended me, I don't know how to tell him the truth. It's going to crush him and hurt him worse than it would hurt me. How did I let things get this far?We were going from the airport, and he decided to drop me off at home first.We hadn't spoken to each other.I was dozing off, staring out of the window with my head leaned on the side."We've arrived now," Derek said, tapping me on the shoulder.I snapped out of my thoughts to see that we had parked in front of my house. I hadn't even realised I'd been so trapped in my thoughts.I sat up straight and then reached to open

    Clara's POV "I called, and neither of you bothered to answer your phones." Mom scolded. She took all her anger out of the carrot; she had that habitwhenever she was upset. "You, I bet you were eager to run off and move in with that boy. You can't even wait for me to die first.""I'm not fifteen anymore, and I can decide who I want to go out with." I reminded her."I'm only scolding you because I love you. I'm your mother. If I don't, you'll probably end up broke with an Onlyfans account and in rehab." She answered. "People get kidnapped. Ms. Jennet, from down the street, her cousin's friend's sister's daughter was kidnapped. She got her daughter back in a plastic bin and cut her into pieces right at her doorstep. Do you want that to happen to you? You know you can't trust people these days." Mom answered. This was her way of winning arguments by telling stories that probably didn't happen."Isn't that the same Jennet who was sent to a psychiatric hospital by her kids because she was

    Clara's POV I've never seen Derek look more uncomfortable, and he looked like he just wanted to disappear from that moment. "It surely is a lot bigger than the home I grew up in," Layla added.There was a brief moment of awkward silence.Mom was the first to break the silence. "Please excuse me. I'm going to go and check on the food." she excused herself.I took the moment to excuse myself, too, following Mom to the kitchen.I knew she was upset by the way she mistreated the oven door. "How can you stand to be so calm around that woman? It would be best if you ran away, Clara. How will you stand to see that woman for the rest of your life?" Mom asked."Just try to calm down. I'm sure they will be gone, and hopefully, we never have to sit at the same table again." I pleaded."Don't tell me you are planning to kill the poor woman." Mom jokes.I shrugged."At this rate, you'd probably have to wait for her to die first before you can get married. Imagine her as your in-law?" "I'm sure

    Clara's POV And, of course, Layla used this as an opportunity to brag about what a great mother she was. "Derek would never have done anything like that. He was too busy being one of the most successful businessmen in the hotel industry." Layla bragged. "I will always be proud of him," Layla added."It's easy for you to say since it wasn't your car that he crushed at fifteen." Derek's dad remarked."You know, no child is perfect. "Layla answered, shooting a look at her husband. "By eleven, he was smarter than most people his age." She continued."I used to skip classes, too," Derek added casually.He wasn't trying to help himself much.This somehow left Layla speechless, even though she didn't have a rebuttal to that one. "Both of our children are idiots, aren't they?" Layla muttered.I expected Mom to comment, but instead, she nodded, agreeing with Layla. "That we can both agree on." Mom shook her head at me, showing her disapproval.I thought this evening would never get better, bu

    Clara's POVI stood there shocked, unresponsive, and unable to say anything.I don't know what got to me, the fact that he said he loved me or that his lips were just an inch away from mine.Was he in love with me? I didn't know whether to jump with joy or start weeping. This was the happiest moment in my life and the saddest because I knew this wouldn't last. What was I going to do? Jump into his arms and confess my love for him, too? Maybe pushing him away would be safer for everyone.The tense look he gave me made me feel worse. I couldn't lie and tell him I didn't love him with him looking at me with those eyes. I also couldn't tell him that I loved him when I knew I was hurting him more than anyone else. He sensed my hesitation."You don't need to say anything," Derek added as I felt him pull away. "I'll always be patient with you. I know you feel it with this thing between us and that it's not just in my head." He continued. “Clara," Layla called out behind us. She grabbed bot

    Derek POV The things he is willing to do make me sick to my stomach, and I'm finally done. He deserves everything coming to him. I was glad that the trial with Maddison's mother went smoothly. Turns out, there is nothing Maddison loves more than her reputation and money, and for that, she is willing to let her mother rot and make herself the victim.I was finally done with the cooking and dished our food in the dining room.I slipped my hand into my pocket, ensuring the ring was safely secured.Clara voiced her approval. I'd made a Pad Thai dish for her, knowing it was her favourite. I finally influenced her. "If my mom calls, please tell her I'm not pregnant." She stated this in the middle of her dinner.I nearly choked on my food as my eyes widened."Are you pregnant?" I questioned, puzzled. "Of course yes. She came over the other day and found a pregnancy test in my bathroom." She explained."Oh," I noted, amazed. "That explains why she's been texting me a lot more often." I am

    Derek’s POVI must have looked at my watch about five times in the same minute. Why was I nervous? I've made far more risky decisions, and none have ever made my heart beat this fast. The house had already been set, our dinner table was perfect, and the garden was just as I had instructed. Clara would be arriving any moment from now, and I was almost done cooking. Everything was perfect, so why was I this nervous?I wiped the sweat off my brow. Vincent was right; my idea was stupid. What was I thinking about planning a proposal here? Surely, I could have thought of a better idea.I needed to calm down. Hopefully, she had another busy night, and she wouldn't show up.Maybe I should turn off my lights and pretend I wasn't home. But she'd walk in. That's what I get for giving her an extra key.Since we've both been tied up with work, we have dinner almost every evening. It made sense that we'd both have the keys to each other's apartments after she moved out of her mother's.I needed to

    Derek POV About a month ago, my mother decided that the best way to end her obsession was to start a new one. She went and got herself a replacement kid. I don't know who in their right mind decided that it was okay for her to adopt a ten-year-old kid. I'd be fine with all this, except the kid hates me. I've done nothing wrong to him. Maybe I'm a bit biassed, but it only took one visit to know there was no longer any space for me in that house."You should be happy about this," Vincent laughed. "Your mother will finally get to fix all the mistakes she made with you. It happened to me, too." He laughed.The secretary walked in to announce that an old friend of ours, Dexter, had arrived. We were working on a new business venture, and we had been waiting for him to start our meeting officially.Dexter walked into my office as laid back as usual. He had barely changed much since I'd last met him. He had a few classes in college together.We exchanged greetings as Dexter settled himself i

    Derek's POVSOME MONTH LATERI swivelled in my chair, fiddling with my pen as I tried to develop ideas. When I needed my brain the most, I couldn't think of anything. I've never felt this anxious about anything before."Are you certain that's a good idea?" I inquired of Vincent, who sat across from me.He had visited my office to discuss our new business deal. We just happened to have moved on to the next item on the agenda.He looked at me in disbelief, as if there was only one obvious answer. "Yes, which woman wouldn't want you to take her to Paris and propose to her in front of the Eiffel Tower?" He answered sarcastically. He threw his hands in the air in disbelief.As incredible as his idea sounded, that didn't sound like something Clara would want. She wasn't that sort of girl.I leaned into my chair and stared at the ceiling. I always thought the proposal would be the hardest part, but I guess so was how to propose."If you think that is too cliché, you can go on a private islan

    Clara's POV I leaned on the door and peeked through to stare at Derek's motionless body. My eyes were quickly whelmed in tears. I never wanted things to end this way.Without thinking, I pushed open the door and walked in.I collapsed into his chest, held onto him tightly, and sobbed."Please wake up and get back to me; I'll do anything. I love you." I whispered. I held onto him even tighter.I wish I'd said this when he wasn't fighting for his life. There were so many things I would have loved to have done differently, but now I can't take any of it back.I suddenly froze as I felt a hand patting my head.I looked up.I blinked at Derek, who was staring back at me. For the first time, I saw clearly. Derek wasn't covered in bandages or had wounds all over his face, as I expected."It's okay, I'm alright." He answered.I wiped away the tears, my vision becoming clearer. "You are not hurt?" I asked, finally realising what had happened."No, but I will be if you continue squeezing me li

    Clara's POVDAYS LATERIt took a few days before the doctors could clear me out and send me home. I was being discharged today, and I had decided it would be the start of my new life.Derek hasn't come over as much, at least not to see me. It meant he was starting to get it. This way, we'd both be able to move on eventually.I was packing the few items Mom had brought to make me more comfortable when I heard a knock on my door. Layla peeked through the door before walking in.She has been responsible for ensuring a fresh batch of flowers in my room every day. She visited me a few times. I was glad she never pushed anything between Derek and me. Without me explaining, she said she understood.Today, there was something different about her. She didn't look like she was dressed for the runway, nor did she carry around her fancy handbag. She was wearing flat shoes. I noticed her eyes were red."I'm so sorry I haven't visited you much in the last few days. How are you, sweetheart?" she ask

    Clara’s POV I was relieved when the nurse announced I'd have a visitor until I saw who it was.The sound of the walking stick should have been enough to know who it was. I could have used the time to pretend I was dead or, better still, leave the room,m but I was foolishly hopeful.Derek's grandfather walked into my room with his usual sinister look and a mightier-than-thou attitude.He looked over at me and smirked. "You don't look too bad. I guess everyone exaggerated how bad you were." He commented. If my hand weren't connected to an IV, I'd be the one leaving this room. He was here for a peace offering."Why are you here?" I asked."Don't worry," he replied, raising his hand. "I won't be here for too long. I wanted to be here in person to ensure my message was clear. I hope you liked my flowers." He smiled. "It's funny how I've tried to make sure you and I don't end up as a family, yet here we are." He chuckled. "You've cost me a lot lately, you and all your recent drama." He pau

    Clara's POV I understood him, too. I made many bad decisions that I thought were good at the time, and he reacted that way because of it. I should have never done any of what I did, either. I know and understand that lies can never be good.But I wish things were different."You should leave," I finally replied. My mouth became dry, perhaps because I knew I was about to tell one final lie."Of course, you need some rest. I'll see you in the morning." He concluded. He smiled weakly and leaned in to kiss me on my forehead."You shouldn't come back," I added as he pulled away.He stared at me with confusion, but he dismissed whatever he was thinking as his face lightened up. "Of course, I'll be here," he answered.I shook my head at him. "You shouldn't come back to see me, not today or ever. We should end this. Everything that did or didn't happen, all of it." I explained."You should get some rest. We are not thinking right now; so many things have already happened on the same day," he

    Clara's POVI woke up to a beeping sound and bright lights around me.All the anxiety rushed in. It took me a while to calm down and realise I was no longer tied up there. I was safe. I still couldn't close my eyes and not reimagine everything. I wish I could forget everything. About a month ago, I never imagined my life would turn out this way.The sedatives were wearing off when my family came rushing into my room.Mom and Katy were the first to strangle me with their hugs and kisses. Soon enough, my room was covered in flowers and soon balloons got well.It was a relief to see everyone again. I thought I never would.We spoke for hours and even cried. You never know how to appreciate these small moments until they can be taken away.I was glad to hear that the woman had finally been arrested. I hope she is locked away somewhere she can never hurt anyone again. Although everything seemed to settle, I couldn't help but think the real storm would soon follow.A nurse stopped by multip
