Because you loved me 29. Reunion party.
It was already a week ever since Krystie got injured, and all this while there was never a day that Lucian had had her move around the house he had transferred his office to home, and most of the time he was working from home, conducting virtual meetings with the business partners. Krystie didn't see the need for all this, because he was only forming a mountain from an anthill, but on the other side she was touched because all her life there was nobody who had ever done so much for her, she was so used to doing things all by herself. "Krystie don't move, I already warned you that in case you need anything all you got to do is call out to me," Lucian warned as he rose from his seat running towards her, leaving his employees stunned, it was shocking for the boss to leave such an important meeting midway just to attend to a woman, everyone in the office knew how much the boss hate the ladies being around him that even he had employed only males to take up the position of the secretarie

Trapped in the elevator Lucian was whistling, humming to a certain tune as he walked around the kitchen, he was so happy, preparing a meal for his wife before she came back when his phone finger with a notification, at first he was so determined to ignore it but when several more dinged he decided to check it. "What the hell is this!" Lucian was surprised by the content of the message, it came from an unknown number, and it sounded suspicious to him because not many people knew his number unless it was someone who knew him very well.When Lucian saw the content of the message on the screen, he could feel his heart shattering into pieces. "I thought you had moved on from that douchebag, but why in the hell would you still kiss him?" Lucian thought to himself as he threw the pans around the kitchen before sitting on the stool, his mind racing in turmoil. Giving it a thought, Lucian felt something was not right somewhere, why would someone send him the picture of Krystie and Alex, no

In the opulent VIP ward where Krystie lay in a coma, every detail exuded luxury. As she rested on the plush bedding, surrounded by the gentle glow of ambient lighting, the room radiated sophistication.Fancy high-end machines, hummed softly as they diligently monitored Krystie's vital signs and administered precise treatments through multiple tubes connected to support her recovery.

Krystie sat on the couch, clutching her abdomen as waves of pain radiated through her body. It was that time of the month again, and her cramps were making her feel miserable. She was shocked when she had just realized that she didn't have any sanitary towels with her.Going to the store was out of an option for her, so instead she reached for her phone and texted Lucian as she didn't have any other person she could turn to, Chloe was out of the city while Mark was on duty for the day.Krystie decided to try her luck with her husband instead, she knew maybe he was busy but she just wanted to try."Hey, could you please run to the store and grab some sanitary for me? I ran out of them," she typed, wincing as another cramp hit her.I hope he is not busy with his work, Krystie thought as she lay on the sofa clutching her stomach hoping for the pain to recede.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Lucian glanced at his phone as it buzzed with a message while he was holding an employee meeting. He frowned slightl

"Krystie, why have you been drinking this heavily of late?" Lucian asked when he could not contain himself any longer. In the past two weeks, Krystie had been going home drunk daily."Lucian, look at me, you are asking me why am drinking this heavily?" Krystie choked on her tears. "It is because of you that am this drunk.""Me?" Lucian asked confused, pointing at himself, he could not recall doing anything bad to her."Yes! You Lucian," Krystie spoke, this time hitting Lucian on the chest. Lucian just allowed her to do anything she wanted to, but he wanted to know what exactly was wrong with her, and why exactly she would blame him."Lucian, I hate it when you treat me like this. Do you think it is easy for me, when I got good feelings for you, when you take very good care of me, when you...""That is my duty Krystie, am your husband," Lucian spoke cutting her shot."Husband," Krystie let out a sarcastic laugh. "Husband on papers only," Krystie said, wiping the tears in her eyes."Do

Reader discretion is advised. >>> "You taste heavenly baby," Lucian whispered to Krystie making sure his lips came in contact with her ear, making her shudder as her face turned tomato red, she was flushed in embarrassment thinking that he had just licked her juices and here he was shamelessly speaking to her. Krystie tried to pull the duvets over to cover herself up, hiding from him but Lucian was fast enough to stop her, "Come on my dear, you don't have to hide from me, you are so beautiful!" Still, though Krystie was not yet satisfied, she felt she needed him inside her. When her face turned to Lucia's manhood that was standing staring at her in all its glory Krystie was a little bit scared thinking about how that whole thing was supposed to enter her, the first time she was half-conscious so she didn't know what exactly had happened between them. Lucian might have sensed it

Krystie stirred awake, the scent of something delicious pulling her from slumber. Blinking away sleep, she opened her eyes but with the harsh light, she closed it as she tried to adjust to the harsh sun rays. 'How long did I sleep?' Krystie asked no one in particular when she realized that it was already almost noon. Sleepily, she sat up on the bed. She could remember last night's events, and thinking of everything that had just happened, she felt embarrassed with herself. It was already shocking enough that even though she was drunk, she could remember it. Krystie took a glance at herself only to find herself in Lucian's shirt, the fabric warm against her skin. Good thing Lucian was much taller than her so the shirt was a mini dress for her. Without bothering to slip on shoes, she followed the enticing aroma to the kitchen, while rubbing her eyes sleepily. When Krystie reached the kitchen, she was met with the best sight she had ever seen all her life. Lucian was only putting on sh

Mark stood in front of Chloe’s apartment door, his knuckles white from clenching his fists. He hesitated for a second before knocking. Chloe opened the door, surprised to see him, but the look on his face made her step aside without question. "Mark?" He stepped inside, but he couldn’t look at her. His voice broke almost immediately. "I accompanied Krystie to see my father." Chloe’s eyes widened slightly, but she waited. Mark exhaled a shaky breath and finally looked at her, eyes red. "He admitted everything, Chloe. He killed them. Your parents just because he was bitter and envious." His voice cracked. "And I’m his son. I carry his blood, he stammered. I... I wouldn’t blame you if you hated me. If you never forgave me. I wouldn't forgive me either." Before another word could leave his lips, Chloe pulled him into a hug. He was stiff at first, then broke down, crying into her shoulder. "I’m so sorry…" he whispered, his voice raw.Chloe gently patted his back, her voice soft. "You

The heavy steel doors of the Blackthorn Federal prison clanked open as Krystie and Mark stepped inside. The long corridor echoed with the distant occasional shout from inmates. Guards led them in silence toward the visitation room. Neither Krystie nor Mark spoke. They all had lots of unanswered questions they desired answers to. It had been a month since the judgement, but Krystie had one more thing she desired to know. They were shown to a cold metal table. A few seconds later, Mr. Xavier was escorted in, clad in his prison uniform, hands cuffed, his once well-groomed face now unkempt beard and hollow eyes. But his smirk remained. "Well, well," he drawled, taking his seat and leaning back as far as the restraints would allow as if he were still the one in control. "See who finally decided to visit me if not my dear son and goddaughter. I was wondering how long it would take for the prodigies to come visit me. Have you come to gloat?" Krystie didn’t waste time. She straightened a

The courtroom buzzed as Xavier West was escorted inside, clad in an orange prison uniform that couldn’t quite mask the pride still etched in his posture. His expression remained composed, almost arrogant. His attorney, Mr. Clarke, adjusted his tie and leaned over. "Relax. We’ve got the best money we can buy. The judges are in our pocket. There’s no hard evidence they can use. We’ll have this thrown out in a week." Xavier didn’t respond, only stared at the room with cool detachment. Journalists filled the benches, their cameras flashing and pens ready. The public gallery overflowed with curious onlookers, family members of victims, and a few hospital staff. Xavier’s smirk returned when he saw the judges entering, three men he knew well, the judges from his case seven years ago. The lead judge struck the gavel, and announced, "Court is now in session. Case number 2328: The People vs. Xavier West." The prosecution began with an impassioned speech, laying out the charges including hu

At the boardroom on the top floor of Regal Hospital, sunlight filtered through the tall windows, where Mr. Xavier West sat at the head of the polished table, flanked by board members and stakeholders. All were dressed in fine suits, sipping imported coffee as they discussed the hospital’s future, oblivious to the storm that was about to hit.Xavier wore his usual calm mask, a faint smile plastered on his face as he nodded at a proposal from the finance director. "If we accelerate the expansion plans for our offshore branches, we can double our quarterly revenue," he said smoothly, exuding confidence and control.The silence shattered when the heavy double doors burst open without warning. Ben, Mr Xavier's personal assistant, stood there panting, sweat trickling on his forehead, his tie crooked as if he'd run all the way."Ben," Xavier barked, his eyes narrowing. "What the hell do you think you’re doing? You don’t barge in here when I’m in a meeting, especially not with the board!"Be

Krystie pulled her hood lower and stepped into the dimly lit back hallway of the Regal Hospital’s records wing. The place had been shut down for maintenance, but she knew better. Mark waited inside, pacing around nervously until he saw, Chloe behind her. "Took you long enough." "I had a meet-up with someone earlier, so I couldn't make it on time. I also had to make sure no one was tailing me," Krystie murmured. "Where’s Nancy?" "Already in the archives, decrypting the lock. She said she found something about shipments, offshore accounts and patient transfer names.” Krystie’s eyes narrowed. "Good. Let’s go." They moved quickly through the corridor, slipping past closed doors and inactive security cameras, courtesy of Nancy. In the sub-basement level, the archive room stood with its heavy, metal door already cracked open. Inside, Nancy hunched over a desk, documents and flash drives spread out on the table before her and a triumphant smile at the corners of her lips "Told you

Krystie stepped into Mr. Xavier’s study, her outer appearance relaxed but her mind was on high alert. He was sitting behind his large mahogany desk with an unreadable expression as he sipped his whiskey. "You’ve been out of reach for quite some time, busy?" he inquired, his tone casual, but his sharp gaze assessing her. Krystie offered a small, tired smile. "Just trying to move forward, and finding something else to do. O hospital wants to hire someone like me after the scandal." Mr. Xavier gestured toward the chair opposite him. " I'm so sorry about that. Take a seat." She did, crossing her legs as she waited for him to speak. "I need your help," he finally said, setting his glass down, his gaze softening a little. "Help?" Krystie tilted her head slightly. "With what?" "There’s a friend of mine who’s in some trouble." He paused, gauging her reaction. "I was hoping you could ask your husband, Lucian, to help him." Krystie stiffened slightly, lowering her gaze as if strug

Mr King stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows of his private office, his sharp gaze fixed on the city skyline. His brother still lay in the hospital bed, barely alive. The doctors had told him the chances of him waking up were only five per cent, or he might end up in a vegetable state because of the damage to the brain. The thought that the man who had done all this to his brother was walking around freely irked him to the core, and tonight he was going to make him pay, even if it meant shedding his own blood. Leo entered the room snapping him from his thoughts. "The men are ready, boss. We have got eyes on the big boss’s main warehouse near the port. Word is, a shipment is coming in tonight with illegal firearms." Mr. King turned with a playful smirk at the corner of his mouth. "Good. Tell them to move immediately. No mistakes." Leo nodded and stepped away hurriedly to relay the command. Mr King reached for the drawer where the folder Joel had sent him several weeks ago la
Because you loved me Chapter 69.
Mr. King sat in his luxurious office, his mind elsewhere. His fingers tapped impatiently against the polished surface of his desk while his other hand gripped his phone tightly. It was already three days. Three damn days without a single word from his brother. His younger brother had never gone this long without answering his calls or at least checking in. He had a bad premonition about it! Mr King exhaled sharply, rubbing his temple. His sources inside the big boss’s operations had gone quiet too, which only deepened his unease. Something was wrong. His phone buzzed, jolting him from his thoughts. It was an unknown number. Frowning, he hesitated before answering. "Who is this?" His voice was sharp and demanding. Silence. Then a distorted voice, as if through a voice changer. "Your brother is in critical condition at St. Lucy's Hospital." A cold chill ran through Mr King's spine. His grip tightened on the phone. "What the hell are you talking about? Who are you?" "Wh

The meeting room inside the warehouse was dimly lit with only a single overhead light. Across the wooden table, the men seated around with tension on their faces. The big boss sat at the head of the table, his gloved fingers tapping rhythmically against the wooden table. His dark mask hid his expression, but the sharp glint in his eyes was enough to send chills through the men seated before him. His patience had run out. Ben stood beside him silently, watching as the others shifted uncomfortably in their seats. Every man in the room knew that meetings like these never ended well. Someone wasn’t going to walk out of this room alive. The big boss finally spoke, his voice calm. "We have a big problem!" He leaned back in his chair. "You see, everything has been going to hell lately. Our plan was interfered with, the dock was wiped clean, our men tortured, and Dr Lawrence returned to us in a state that not even the devil himself would wish upon his worst enemy. He let the words s
