CHAPTER 37M I R A N D AI take a good look at Bethany while she sleeps peacefully on top of her crib. I kiss her forehead goodnight and walked to Ben's bedroom. He's fast asleep too while he hugs that hot dog pillow in between his thighs and hugs it close to his cheeks. I've been walking around the mansion to look for Landon.When I woke up, he wasn't next to me anymore. And I'm worried where he is at this very moment. I stand out of his study and I think he is behind this room. I slowly opened the door as it squeaks open and stood by the threshold."Landon?" I entered his study.There he is with a bottle of liquor next to him and a glass half emptied by the golden brown colored alcohol. I wonder what's bothering him. He always comes here and brings with him a bottle of alcohol and drowns himself with it."There you are." I added with a soft voice.He pulled his head up to me and I noticed that the entire room was insanely quiet and a bit dark. The light from his lampshade was the o
CHAPTER 38H U G O"Are you sure with this Mr. Saintclare?" He asks.I nodded."Yes." I fix my tie. "I wanna clear my name from this irreverent matter.""I'm just worried for you, boy." He says.I grin. "I'll be fine Trenton. Don't need to worry about me. I'll just say something to make the issue go away. I don't want my company's name to be downgraded and to be at risk just cos of this stupidity.""Your company is always important to you.""Of course. It's my bread and butter."He slightly smiles. "Can you really do this? Against your ex wife?"I nodded firm. "Of course I can."Suddenly there came a knock by the door and as soon as it swings open, I see Maria standing by the threshold. "The media are ready at the conference room, sir." She says to me.I stand from my chair and placed my blazer over me. "Tell them to wait. I'm on my way." I instructed her.She nods. "Right away Mr. Saintclare."Maria leaves the room while Mr. Trenton, my Press Coordinator, was still looking at me susp
CHAPTER 39H U G OMy heart raced."Is there something important that we need to talk about?" I asked Rose. "Yes. Let's talk about it when Landon and Zachary's here with us." She responded.I'm surprised. "Zachary?" I quizzed.She awkwardly looked away."What's Zachary gonna be here for?" I ask her again but she's not looking at me anymore. "Rose?" I call out her attention.She looks straight ahead. "They're here."I see Landon and Zachary's presence coming to our table. The two of them, walked to where we were. They joined us right away. Landon kissed Rose's cheek, my heart ached by the gesture, and the lads quickly gave me a brief hug. Landon sat next to Rose and Zachary sat next to me. I glanced at them and I think they know something that I don't. I'm nervous. Im always the last one to know about things. "I've ordered for all of us." Rose speaks.Landon clears his throat as he glances at Zachary."What's going on guys?" I questioned.Zachary sighs heavily. "I can't believe we'r
CHAPTER 40M I R A N D AI left the table when Hugo started talking about kissing me and I hurriedly walked to the bathroom because I feel my cheeks burning. I was blushing in front of Hugo the entire time and I have no idea why he always affect me like this. I have been staring at myself in front of the mirror and tried to stop myself from blushing.Damn cheeks!I have been here for almost ten minutes now, just staring at my own reflection and I have been waiting for my cheeks not to blush anymore. Hugo always makes me red like a tomato and I hate how he can easily do it.Suddenly a knock came by the door, "Rose?"Fuck it's Hugo."Y-yeah?" I chirped."Landon just left."What?"Someone called him up and he said it was his client from a while ago. Something came up at work." Hugo explains.I rushed to the door and opened it. There stands Hugo, carrying Bethany over his long leans arms and huts waited for me to open up.He smiles. "He asked me if I could take you home." He says.I feel
CHAPTER 41L A N D O N Why did they have to be here too? Why did we have to be in one bar at the same time? Why did I have to see her lying ass and his freaking shit face?"Landon lets just go." Zachary tells me.Landon: Love, I'll be home a bit late. I’m sorry. Don't wait up for me. I love you so much.Audrey wore a pair of distressed black jeans that had a huge hole on her left knee, paired with a black boots and a black shirt under the black leather jacket. She looked as if she wasn't on the news a week ago and now she's out partying like she doesn't have a son.Has she really gotten crazy?"Landon." Zachary calls out to me but I don’t mind him at all. The more I look at Ridge and Audrey the angrier I become and it feels like this anger is raging inside me after what they have done to Hugo and what she has done to me.As she passed by the other tables that were around, people were busy looking and obviously gossiping about her but she didn't even bother it at all. She walked casua
CHAPTER 42H U G OI grabbed the Kleenex tissue box.I threw myself to bed as soon as I got home but I still see Rose. I loosened my belt and unbuttoned my jeans. I think about how Rose looked when she wore those undies on. As I fantasize about her I placed my hand over my bulge and try to touch it. I miss staring at her body. Even after giving birth, she's still god damn hot though.God, how I wish I could hold my hands around her right now. I have been here imagining her since I left their house. I have been lying down on this bed thinking about her. I slipped my hand inside the garter of my boxer brief and tried stroking myself. I close my eyes as I imagine Rose. I bite my lower lip as I see her, wearing those undies on from a while ago. She still makes me stand. I began to pull my boxer brief together with my trousers down then started stroking myself again. But faster this time.I groan as I lick my lips. My eyes were still close while my hand is still busy.I climaxed and moaned
CHAPTER 43M I R A N D AHugo sighs heavily as he holds the back of his neck with his hand as soon as he peeled his eyes away from mine.“Where is he?” I ask him, still holding onto his shirt."We'll be there." I hear Hugo responding to Landon and he hangs up the next second.I held on to his sleeve with both hands as I asked, "Hugo? What's wrong?" I ask him intensively because his eyes looked incredibly in complete despair and sadness."Hugo." I pull his sleeve again while he sighs heavily trying to run his hands over his face and his eyes as he groans under his throat.“What is it?!” I pulled harder.Hugo slowly move his head to me and looked into my eyes with knitted brows and tears flooding behind his eyelids."W-What's the matter?" I ask worriedly. “Why are you looking at me like that?” I ask again as I clenched harder onto his sleeve but he is not answering me. “What?!”He shakes his head as he tries to breathe in and out. "I can't believe this." He mutters to himself as he push
CHAPTER 44M I R A N D A"We saw Ridge and Audrey at the same bar. Landon didn't want to leave at first because he was too mad at them for what they have done to Hugo but I persuaded him not to do anything and that we just leave. Ridge’s guy blocked the entrance and…” He groans as he wipes his tears with his hands.He curses under his breath as he whimpers, “Everything just went too fast. Ridge forced us to follow him to the backdoor exit and we did. I did. I forced Landon to go with me because I was mad at Ridge when he mentioned about Paris’ OD. I got blinded by my anger and followed Ridge and Landon was stopping me. Ridge was taunting Landon that his men will come to your house and someone would hurt you." Zachary explains as his voice continues to tremble.That's why he's been texting me to lock the doors and to keep the kids safe with me. Oh my goodness Landon. Why didn't you tell me?My tears are building and my heart is thumping so hard in my chest."Landon texted Hugo right aw
