Seeing the way things were moving, Reid had no choice than to sign the documents, then shifted them to the lawyer. He took a good look at the building before departing from it. Not under this earth has he ever imagined of losing his wife, talk more of the company he struggled to the last to merge and secure be seperated.

“If that's how you want it—if this will make you happy, then I don't regret signing it, because your happiness matters to me.” he thought as he stood on the road, waiting to board a flight. There was no need to go back to the lawyer again, he was finally divorced by his wife, one thing he was dodging came to pass..so he dropped a message for him.

He was going home, not even to his office. Those wealths seemed meaningless to him without Anna, he might even go crazy or misplace something while in the office—so going back home to battle with his demons alone and in a secluded place will be the best.

    “Are you gonna take me on a date when you're back? Should I hope for it?” the lady in a pink short sleeveless gown queried, while Reid was standing before the mirror dressing up. He scoffed, “I don't have a deal with you. There's nothing in common between us—make sure to leave before my return or I'll throw you out by myself…” he retorted back at the lady.She glued her ass to the cushion. “It's a pity that I won't leave.

It's already five years yet you can't put that bitch out of your mind, she's not gonna return to you because she has moved on…”Reid turned to her, blood drained on his face. “Are you crazy?

    The moment Anna left her house for the conference meeting, she knew there was no how she wouldn't see Reid. it's a national conference meeting, and so some CEOs might not be present because attendance won't be taken. But it's a must, she knew there was no way Reid wont show up as one of the national executives and one of the most respected.Her heart was pounding heavily. She doesn't want to see him but there's no way she will miss the conference when she already missed it twice , last year and the year before.How will it feel seeing her ex–husband in the meeting? She hopes that he doesn't notice her presence and approaches her.“I wouldn't want to embarass you Reid, and I still can't find myself snubbing you or the both of us being the talk of the day by the others. Please don't find me—I'm very sure you've moved on and have already forgotten everything about me.” she thought while seated in the car.When the car reached the conference mall about an hour later, she alighted from th

    “Sir, we found the destination of the car.” the driver mentioned at the doorpost. Reid was busy tracking the conference mall with his cell phone, trying to see the cars packed and their numbers, he dropped the phone and sat on the bed. “Come inside!” He ordered the driver who wined the door handle and pushed it, he walked in and bowed to him.“You found the car's destination?” he asked him and he nodded then handed over to him the sheet of paper on which the house address was written on. “She no longer stays with her father.” the driver added while Reid was still going through the house address. He furrowed his brows, wiped his face and read the address again.It's been three days since the national conference meeting took place, and since then, he hasn't been at work nor has he stepped his feet out of his home.

    Anna stood still, her heart pounding faster.“Who is he? Are you married?” Reid broke up the silence between them, pointing at Drake, but Anna never replied. He took a good look at her ring finger but there was no ring there, then he smiled. “It feels good to see you again. How have you been?”“Stop stalking me!” she retorted. Drake tapped her but she never responded to him. “You should take your eyes away from me, stop following me about. I know you tracked me…” she added, her voice rising at each word. But within her, she wants to rest her head on his chest, feel his breathing and hear the sound of his heartbeat. “If I ever accept him back, he will take me for granted.” she thought and turned her back on him.Reid held her arm. “At least you should answer the little boy. Am I his daddy? Were you pregnant before divorcing me?” he interrogated, his face chiseled. He wants her back, not as a friend, but his wife again. He wants to set his eyes on her before going to bed and see her in

    Until the end of the day, Reid couldn't still believe what Richard told him. How on earth is Anna getting married? Why should the child belong to another man? He was hoping that the child is his, at least there’s a happiness that will follow up if the child was his. Come to think of it, who is that man that has almost the same looks and other physical features like him? Is it possible for someone to have a look alike that way?He clenched his fist and hit it on the wall. Now that he thought everything will be resolved smoothly between him and Anna, at least she will understand that what happened in the past wasn't his fault—another figure showed up.“Where do I start? I can’t just take my eyes off her. How do I get her back to myself?” he swallowed deeply and slammed his butt hard on the bed. Anger and bitterness overwhelmed him.“Sir! You sent it to me." His driver dashed into the room several times after ringing the doorbell but didn't get an approval. Reid signaled him to come clos

    “Mum, uncle is here to see you.” Drake announced as he bumped into Anna’s room. She turned and the next was a loud hiss that took over the sound in the room. She hates it when Richard shows up and doesn't even know how to dodge him. Why would he distract her thought over what Reid just stated about his brother? She has been contemplating, trying to pull together her thoughts and come to a conclusion that Reid was innocent.She turned to see Drake still staring at her. “Let's go see Uncle!” She grabbed his hands and they walked out of the room.She could remember her lawyer telling her a certain time that Reid wasnt the mastermind to the rape incident—now that he said it as well, how will she come to believe that it wasnt a plan he had with Felix? How on earth will he just be a revenge tool when he's a blood relative to Felix?Everything was too deep for her to understand, but all she wishes for is to believe that Reid is innocent of everything. Once she can believe that, then all the

What are you going to do?”He scoffed and exhaled a hot breath. “I'll wish them a happy marriage, that's all. We aren't meant to be from the beginning—and there's no way I'll drag her with my brother.” Richard stated.Her eyes grew wide. “Brother? You mean, Reid is your brother?” she walked closer to him. “Are you going to leave this state with him? His father built a company for him and he will be leaving with Anna after their wedding.”“Don't you want me to follow him there? Why do you look anxious all of a sudden?” he grinned and stepped back a bit, but she came closer again and held his hands. “Don't go with him ... you already have your own business here and it's doing well.”He arched hi

    Richard was coming out of the shopping mall when he stumbled on a lady, he lifted his face and was shocked at who he was seeing. She was a total stranger to him, and her looks were scary. “I'm sorry about that..” he pleaded, there was nothing to drag when he wasn't with his men. He made a move only for him to get a terrible hit that sent him to the ground.“My name is Lyra. plan A didn't work, I think Plan B will work smoothly,” she uttered and dragged him to his car despite the looks of people. After she left Anna's residence, she visited the nearest hacker with the help of the cab driver who drove her. Anna's cell phone was hacked and she took Richard's number and then began tracking him.She must bring an end to the reunion of Reid and Anna no matter what. She drove the car herself to Richard's residence, and when his men came forward, she faked being a helper to him and would love to stay by him until he was awake. After so much contemplation, she was allowed to do so and that was

    It was the first time Lyra met with Anna, and she hated it. There was nothing good about seeing the woman that made Reid stay away from her all these years, she wanted to snap her neck, but that wouldn't help, instead, it would cause more issues. She heard everything about Reid and decided to visit his father thinking that he would help out—at least, Reid should take the national company for himself ...but it looked like Anna came for the same reason as well because she overheard a little of their conversations. Now, the bitter part of it isn't that Anna visited for the same reason, she's scared that Anna will make the old man love her again and want her back to Reid and that she wouldn't want. “They are already divorced, so there's much to think about—still I'm scared that they may come back together. Anna is wealthy and famous, she has a company and can easily build Reid again...then I'll be the loser because I offered nothing.” she let out a hot breath. Her eyes caught with the c

    After Anna ended her conversation with the lawyer, she decided to go visit Mr Wilson like she had said. Since the distance was a bit far and it was running late, she booked an urgent flight which took her to their town, and then she boarded a taxi that drove her to their compound.She wished not to see Mrs Wilson, the sight of her still irritates her especially when she recalls that the elderly woman had never loved her. “Greetings Sir!'' She greeted Mr Wilson who was standing at the veranda taking a look around. It's nice to see him stand on his feet without quivering, he was improving faster.“Anna!” he was shocked to see her. He threw his arms around her in an embrace. “It's been a while, how have you been?”She smiled widely. That was unexpected. “Im okay Sir…”“Come on, drop the formalities. Let's go in.” he led the way into the sitting room and offered her a seat. He also ordered the chef to prepare something for her to take which she didn't reject. It's been a while, so everyth

    Anna visited Richard, knowing that her son had been there and Richard would never let her take him back, she decided to see how he was fairing. At least, she was glad that Reid was released, that way she wouldn't feel guilty anytime she recalled him. She didn't want to drive, so her driver took the car key and they drove off. Immediately she arrived at Richard’s residence and stepped into the building, Drake ran towards him like he knew she was coming. She glanced around but Richard wasn't in the sitting room—Drake was the only one in there watching the cartoon that was playing.“Where's uncle?” she asked him and he pointed towards the stairs. “In his room, he only came down once and fed me, then he went back to his room saying that he had a lot to do. He was deaf when I talked about going home to see you.” Drake narrated.She pinched her lips. “Your uncle isn't deaf, he is busy and I already told him that i'll be coming that's why.” she cautioned him and he nodded.She walked upsta

    Reid hugged Anna and bid her goodbye, he went into the car and his lawyer drove off. They were heading to see his parents, that was the only way to know if what they read online was true or just a rumor. His heart wasn't in a place, he wished that it would be all a lie. Not that being their adopted child is a crime or because he feels leaving the company will be the end of his life—but the relationship is what he does not wish to see end.If this is true, then he won't have a family again, no one to talk to or call a family.His parents were having dinner when he arrived at home. They headed to meet them there. Even if they will lose their appetite because of the issue, then there's no issue.“Dad!” He hugged him from behind but he didn't respond. He wasn't shocked, that was also a way of knowing if everything was true or not. He took a seat and signaled the lawyer to do as well. “I am out because I'm innocent,” he uttered only to get a heavy glare from his mother.“Who asked you and

    “No one should mention my name until I get this file.” he barked at one of his men through the phone. His mother already left, and he aimed to find the adoption file and take it to the orphanage that his mother had directed him to. He wants to do this because he believes that it's the only way for him to put down his brother and get everything to himself. “Once the adoption is dissolved, you'll have no right over my father's properties again.” he grinned.The sound of the door made him turn to face his father, he released a loud annoying hiss and went back searching for it again.“Can't you just give up? This is getting out of hand and I hate it….” his father complained. He glared at him and continued, there was no time to reply to his father, all he wanted was to see the file, yet after searching almost all the files he had come across—it was yet to be found. “Just tell me where it is. I'm trying to avoid anything that will bring you down through that bastard.” he screeched at his fa

    It's been five days since Anna was hospitalized yet there was no response from her. Reid had pleaded to go visit her in the hospital, and the DOP allowed him to go with the sergeants, he was bittered when he saw Anna still lying lifeless on the hospital bed, the tears that gathered in his eyes were uncontrollable.He knelt beside the bed and held her palm, staring at her face. “You have to wake up Anna, you've slept a lot. You need to wake up so I won't be life imprisoned, you're the only witness that I have now—so open your eyes and spare me these accusations,” he muttered, hoping to get a reply from her, but he heard nothing, not even her finger moved.The electrocardiogram began making sounds that attracted the attention of everyone in the room, he rushed out of the hospital and alerted the doctor who rushed in with other doctors to check on her.“Conduct CPR!” the senior doctor ordered and one of them began it immediately. It looked like nothing was done, the vital signs were beco
