Chapter 115
I stand outside her apartment building and stare up at it. I’m so tired of this empty void deep inside of me. I can’t bear the thought of Shayla loving someone else. It’s selfish, I know, but I want her to love me and only me. My heart clenches when I see Shayla come out on her balcony. I look up watching her as she closes her eyes and wipes her face with her fingers. She’s crying again. When she looks down, she sees me standing by my car, looking up at her. I take my phone out and dial her number. She looks at her phone and answers it.
“Cole, what are you doing?”
“Let’s go somewhere.” I sigh.
“What?”
“Let’s just disappear, go somewhere far away from here where no one can find us. Just you and me.” I plead, and she closes her eyes sighing.
“In an ideal world, I would have gone anywhere with you, but that's just not an option for us. We can’t do that, Col

He sighs and leans forward regarding me seriously. “You do the right thing and set her free because that’s what love really is. Sacrifice. Have you never heard the expression, set what you love free, and if it returns, it was always meant for you, and if it doesn’t, it was never meant to be?” He expresses, and I sigh.“It’s just easier said than done though, Isn’t it?”“Son, there are two types of love, there’s selfless and selfish love. Love is not only for the good times you share with someone but more so about the hardship you share and doing what’s best for the other person. Like your girl, for example, she loves you so much she walked away and let you be with the one you thought you wanted to be with. That’s selfless love and what you have is selfish love. You’re only thinking about what you want, your pain and you’re no sparing a thought to what she needs. What you’re feelin

I sigh, “I’m fine, Mum, I just wanted to clear my head for a few days.” I assure her, and she sighs in relief.“Where have you been son, your phones been off for days, no one has heard from you? We thought something terrible happened to you.” He says, pulling me in for a hug. “When Josh called me we thought..” I look over at Josh and see he’s on the phone to someone.“I’m fine guys; I’m sorry you all worried. I should have said something, but I just needed some time alone,” I say, and look at Sophie who shakes her head her eyes glimmering with tears. “I’m really sorry.” I apologise, and she gets up and runs over to me, wrapping her arms around my neck.“I was so worried, Tristan, why didn’t you say something to me. I woke up in the middle of the night, and you were gone.” She cries, and I sigh shrugging.“I had no right making you all worry, b
Accidentally Yours Chapter 118 Shayla
If someone asked me to describe the absolute worst moments of your life— I would have told them about the day I lost my Dad. It was a moment I never wanted to live ever again. That is, of course, until the man you’re in love with tells you he doesn’t want to live anymore in the middle of the night and races off in his sports car. The way my hands and legs shook as I watched him speed off madly down the road. I call him on his phone to tell him to come back, but he doesn’t answer. Instead, he ends my call and turns his phone off. I drop to my knees, screaming in the middle of my living room, my head in my hands.Aimee comes running out of her room when she’s heard me and kneels in front of me, followed by Jo. “Shayla! What happened?!”“What the hell is going on?” Jo asks Aimee who shrugs and shakes her head while she tries to calm me down. “Shay, shhh, shhh, what’s the matter, babe?”“C

“He will be, just please calm down.” He assures me, and I shake my head.“I can’t sit here anymore, Josh. I want to be out there looking for him.” I sniffle, and Josh shakes his head.“He hasn’t left the country, his jet, his yacht, his helicopter they’re all here, so it’s only a matter of time before someone sees him and reports it. Is there anywhere that you two went together that he might have gone? I checked that place by the river. He wasn’t there.”I shake my head, unable to think of a place we shared. “No, I don’t think so,” I confess, closing my eyes. “Josh I’m so scared,” I whisper, and he nods taking my hands into his squeezing them supportively.“He’ll be back, you’ll see.” He assures me, and I nod an endless stream of tears running down my face. “You should get some rest; you look exhausted.” I shake my head

“Look at her! Take a good look at what Cole is doing to her. There’s nothing left of her anymore, just leave her the fuck alone. She’s at breaking point, are you trying to drive her to the point of insanity!” Aimee shouts angrily. “I hope for both your sakes Cole is okay, but I will not allow you both to destroy my friend, she’s been through enough, now get the fuck out!” Aimee exclaims as she comes to my side as I rock back and forth on the floor with my head in my arms sobbing. Sophie walks out of the apartment, slamming the door shut behind her. “Shayla.” Aimee kneels next to me, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me into her chest. “Shhh, it’s okay, she’s gone, she’s gone, babe.”“He’s gone, and it’s all my fault.” I wail and Aimee shakes her head tightening her hold on me.“He’s not gone, he’ll be back.” She reassures me and help

“ENOUGH!” I scream glaring at both of them, my chest rising and falling with every desperate breath I took. Cole lifts his gaze to me, and his eyes soften instantly when our eyes meet. He drops his hands from Josh’s shirt, and he looks me over. “Josh, leave us,” I tell him my voice hoarse.“Shayla..” he interjects.I look at him. “Please..” He nods and stops when he sees the bruise and cut on my left cheek.“Shayla, what happened to your face?” He questions, reaching out to touch me, but I move my face away.“Leave us,” I whisper pleadingly, and he nods and walks out of the apartment, leaving Cole and me alone. I stood there staring at him tears streaming down my face while he stood staring at me apologetically.“Shayla, what happened to your face?” He questions walking toward me. I reach up and slap him hard across the face. He lifts his eyes to mine, a look

“Tristan?” I blink and look at my father, who was watching me expectantly. “How do you like this one, son?” He asks gesturing to his black tailored Armani suit.“Looks good, Dad,” I tell him, staring at the mirror at my reflection as they tailor my suit for the wedding. I can’t believe I’m getting married in two days. The closer the date got, the tougher it got to breathe. Sophie has us running around doing all this wedding stuff, and I’m really trying to pay attention, but I’m struggling. I keep thinking about her. I know I shouldn’t, but I can’t help it. Ninety-nine percent of my day is spent thinking about her. I was hoping I would see her when she comes to return to the papers signing her rights to her design entirely over to Cult Designs. I was left disappointed when I saw Jo walk in and hand the documents to Jess to give to me.“Jo?” I call out to her while she was waiting by the

The next day was the rehearsal dinner. Another day where I have to act like the happy groom, excited to be marrying the woman he supposedly loves. Thank God for scotch, I was currently on my fifth scotch, and it was taking the edge off somewhat. I’ve been drinking a lot lately, it’s the only way I can sleep and ignore that big fat gaping hole inside of me. I can’t even look at myself. I can’t stand the sight of myself; it makes me sick to the stomach.“Cole?” I lift my eyes and look at the therapist sitting opposite me. “Do you want to tell me why you’re here?”“You look like her,” I tell her, and she frowns a little and licks her lips. She was a beautiful woman, long dark hair, green eyes, but older. She bears a striking resemblance to Shayla, and I found comfort in that. Shayla was miles more beautiful though, in every way.“Cole, this is your third session, and we haven’t discussed
