CHAPTER 12M I R A N D AI was on top of the bed next to Ben who was fast asleep beside me. I push his hair off his face and just watch his chest go up and down as he breathe. Hugo's out to the restroom and he's been out for a while now. I think he's taking a shower or whatsoever.I hum a song to Ben while I run my forefinger over his nose bridge. The room was quiet and Landon has been in his office for a while now too.Suddenly the door swings open and I kind of jumped but then recovered by it. It was Hugo, wearing a pair of black jogger pants and some white shirt. Damn he's still good on that. I swear he looks hot on this jogger pants. He walks closer to the bed while he rubs his wet hair against the towel. He just took a shower. Damn I could smell the scent of his shampoo from where I was. I quickly fixed myself on top of the bed, the minute Hugo was close enough to me.He stares at me."You can go to your room with Landon now. I'll guard Ben while he sleeps for the night." Hugo in
CHAPTER 13H U G OPARIS: I need your help Randy. I'm so scared. I'm so scared right now.I tried to ignore what Paris sent her. I don't understand. Why is Paris acting like this? What's she scared of? Who's she scared of?I sit on the couch and kept my eyes glued to her text. I try to think of what she was possibly talking about in this text. It looked simple but had so much meaning in it. I try to read in between the lines but I still couldn't figure out what Paris is trying to say in this text she sent Rose. Maybe Rose knows about it. It's already one in the morning and I wouldn't want to wake Miranda up and tell her that I opened her message. She'll feel like I invaded her privacy.Her phone beeps again.It was another text from Paris.PARIS: We need to tell him. I feel so bad for hiding it from him all these years. I had a nightmare. It was horrible. It was so traumatizing that I'm too scared that it looked real. I don't want it to happen. I'm so scared. I'm really scared. We nee
CHAPTER 14M I R A N D AI asked the nurse on the nurse's station where Paris’ room was and I am anxious. I am panting, trying to catch my breath and feeling incredibly scared but I knew I had to see her.Hugo, Landon and I rushed our way to Paris' hospital room and we were all worried for what happened to her. Zachary called us up this morning and told us about what happened. He said Paris was having tantrums and nightmares. I'm glad they were still here in New York when this happened. I'm so worried for Paris. I hope nothing serious had happened to her. I don't know what has exactly happened last night but I wish her baby is still alive. I wish she's okay too. I wouldn't want her to have another miscarriage again.When we reached her room, we quickly marched inside and saw Paris sleeping on her bed. She looked pale. Very pale. Very weak. The three of us walked near Zachary and he hugged us respectively. He looked tired and he looked like he hasn't gotten any sleep at all."Thanks fo
CHAPTER 15P A R I S A few years back.I cried while Audrey holds me around her arms while she tells me that it was going to be okay. She tells me that Zachary will be happy about this but Zachary doesn't want a baby yet. He's not ready for that kind of commitment. I know we're engaged but he's famous and this will change his dreams and his plans. He's not ready. He told me about this and we have talked about this but here I'm pregnant. It's not my fault. It's not my fault that I'm pregnant. I want this baby. I want a baby with Zachary so badly but he's not ready.Audrey tells me to be strong for the baby. She tells me that I should tell Zachary no matter how he will accept it. I'm pregnant. I'm four weeks pregnant and this will ruin my career. This ruin Zachary's career. This will ruin Satellite Patrol. This will ruin me. We signed a contract. He shouldn't have gotten me pregnant. What should I do? They will hate me. They will hate me so much. I'm going to lose my fame and my fans.
CHAPTER 16M I R A N D A"Tea?"I pulled my head up and it was Landon, handing me a cup of tea. I smiled at him and he sits next to me. We were inside the dining table and I was worried how things turned out between Paris and Zachary. I hope they're doing great now.Landon rubs my back, "You helped Paris talk it out with Zachary. Don't feel bad about it."I smiled ruefully. "I just feel terribly bad for Paris. She was just confused that time and I hope Zachary's not really mad at her for what she did.""Zachary couldn't live without Paris. He will eventually forgive her I'm sure. Now lighten up." Landon cheers me up.I sigh. "If they end up getting a divorce, I'm the one to blame."He pulls me closer to him and he kisses my temple. "It wasn't your fault. You helped them sought things out between them."I hear Landon sighing, "I just didn't expect Paris would've done abortion. Nobody knew."I rested my head over Landon's shoulder.While I was standing at the kitchen counter, I was stil
CHAPTER 17A U D R E YI watch him while he stares at Alex. He doesn't know how to play with his own son unlike Hugo who comes so naturally great with kids. Alex has been crying and he doesn't know how to tame him down. I watch him and loathe him at the same time. If he wasn't a killer, a criminal and if I wasn't too scared of him, I would've left him already. But I need him. I need him for my plans. I need to manipulate him. I need him so I could have Hugo's money. All of it.I'll be rich again. I'll have billions."Enough already." I said annoyingly as I pull Alex away from him.His entire room smelled like drugs and cigars and alcohols."Why do you deprive me from my son?" He asks."He's not your son." I snapped.He laughs. "Last time I checked, I am the father. And Hugo wouldn't marry you if I didn't get you pregnant." He smokes like a chimney.I quickly covered Alex's mouth and nose with my own hands then pulled him away from this sick man."Have a shame on yourself please! You'l
CHAPTER 18H U G O "I shouldn't be telling you this because it's out of my line and it's not work related but I know you have to know this." She says with such confused eyes and I hate how she is dragging this too long."What is something I need to know about Audrey, Maria?" I ask.She exhales. "Please don't let her know this came from me sir." She looked scared.I gave her my word. "I won't.""A few days ago Mr. Saintclare, while you were in New York she kept on coming here. Almost everyday.” She narrates.Everyday? “I thought at first that she didn't know you weren't in the office for a couple of days, like she's just looking for you. But then later on I found out that she had an idea you were out of town. She was aware that you weren't here in London." She says."She knew I was in New York." I tell her."I knew it. But then some of her actions grew a little more mysterious to me." She begins to say to me. My brows creasing as I listen to her because of course Audrey knew I was i
CHAPTER 19H U G OI entered the small spaced club where most people were obviously smoking weed and doing drugs in the darkest corners of the square floored building. It smelled like shit in here and I wanted to get out as soon as possible but I had to follow Audrey. I had to know where she's going to take that file and how she found out about my combo for the safe.When I spotted her walking her way through the crowd dancing on the dance floor, I quickly followed her. Some women noticed me but I know I had to get my way closer to Audrey.She enters a small door and looks around before she walks inside. She's being too careful with her actions. She knows she doesn't want to get caught so this means she's doing something terribly suspicious. I hurriedly rushed my way to the door in hopes that it wasn't locked.I sneakily pressed my ear against the maroon colored door and tried to listen to their conversation but I had nothing. I can't hear a thing at all. I groan as I found myself dum
