Sarah's POVI stood at another corner, staring at nowhere in particular. I had taken another glass of wine when I left mine back on my table.I despise myself for not retaliating to those annoying words of Clark, but again I felt it wasn't necessary to waste my saliva on him.Still looking around, my eyes caught Hayden, and Mr Hidalgo still in a conversation, and I could tell Hayden was getting bored of his endless praises.He had used those lips of his in sweet talking my father into favouring him, and now that my father's company was facing some difficulties, he wanted to divert to somewhere else.Just when I wanted to divert my gaze to somewhere else, I saw a lady walk up to Hayden."Natasha." That's her name.The arrogant daughter of Mr Hidalgo. They're practically the same people- green snakes.My blood was boiling when I saw her smile in front of Hayden, and I could feel my head spinning as well.I tried to comport myself not to act so foolish because I had no right to tell Hayd
Becky's POV"How did it go Becky? Did you find the young lady?" Clark asked me the moment he got home. He was drunk, and nearly wasted.My eyes were swollen because I had been crying earlier, as well as making some stupid calls Clark wanted me to."Not yet, but I'm close to finding her." I replied, looking away from him because I knew my reply would surely get him angry."What can you do Becky, I gave you a simple job and yet you're slacking? Get her before the wedding commences tomorrow." He instructed.Just as he wanted to walk away, I stopped him."What about the one who scammed me, aren't you worried about that as well?" I asked.Again, Clark turned to face my direction."What does that have to do with me Becky?"I was scared to talk back, but then I couldn't hold back the anger I was feeling inside me."You were practically the one who made me do it, Clark. What are you trying to do, ruin my fathers company? We need to find him, and have the bastard pay for what he did. I listene
The rays of the sun penetrated through my window which made me open my eyes immediately.I was covered with a duvet, and Kira was in the room as well standing beside the window."Rise and shine Mrs Sarah, today is your wedding day." Kira chanted happily.My head was hurting so bad, and the bright light in the room was quite disturbing. I even forget today was the day I would be getting married. Married and finally becoming Mrs Sarah Smith. I would no longer bear the Lane's name for the time being.Just then, something hit me hard, so hard that it made me wince in pain as I held my head."Are you alright?" Kira asked worriedly."What happened last night? Who brought me in, Kira?" I asked, slightly recalling what happened yesterday."Mr Hayden brought you in yesterday. You were drunk last night." Kira replied.I recalled just one thing, and that was Hayden lifting me up into his arms, after that, I seem to can't remember whatever happened last night.When I raised the duvet, I saw myse
Hayden's POVAn hour later, Sarah still wasn't present. Ray leaned closer to my ears and whispered."Did something happen between you two?" I remained silent, not giving a reply to his question. I was secretly worried as well, but I didn't want to believe she wasn't going to make it today.Clark was seated in the first row, and every second he kept looking back as well. From the back seat, I could see Sarah's parents, shamelessly seated. They had thrown their pride to be here because it would help them gain even more popularity. I was the beloved multi billionaire of New York and even many countries, and so they just had to attend the wedding in order to meet great business men as well from other countries.I might as well go nuts. The very moment when I would lose all hope, she walked in. Elegantly dressed in a white gown, and looking so beautiful like I had never seen before.She didn't smile at me as she walked in. Our eyes were staring at each other because I didn't have the cou
***Sarah's POV."Congratulations Mr Hayden, and you too Mrs Sarah." One of Hayden's board members said."Thank you Mr Romero." Hayden replied, while mine came with a smile.Getting distracted, I turned back to look for my parents, but they were no where to be found. "And you will be seeing my wife more often." I heard Hayden say, but I wasn't bothered about that because I was busy looking for traces of my parents. They were no where to be found, and I won't have kept looking untill I heard Clark's voice."Congratulations." He said, taking Hayden's hands for a shake."Glad you made it Mr Genaro. You see, every gifts comes with one as well." Hayden said.Clark smiled back, because he understood Hayden's language and what he meant by that."Yes it does." He replied."You should stop searching Sarah, they both left hours ago." Clark said to me.I didn't say a word,"Can I speak with you in private Mrs Smith?"I knew he said that on purpose because he wanted to piss off Hayden."Whatever
Morning…Sarah's POV.The early morning sun rays woke me up yet again, and the very moment I opened my eyes, I was drawn to thinking about Hayden.His words last night kept disturbing me over and over again, and even though I knew it wasn't true, something kept telling me otherwise.I rubbed my face with my palm, repeatedly telling myself to forget about it.A knock was rasped on the door."Come in." Kira opened the door and walked in."Sir Hayden instructed you come out dressed. He's waiting for you." Kira informed."Alright, thank you." I replied, standing up on my feet.Kira walked out immediately she said that, and because I didn't want to keep Hayden waiting, I rushed into the bathroom, took a quick bath and hurriedly picked out a blue sleeveless gown that reached my kneel level.Applying just a little makeup, and styling my hair into something pretty and simple, I smiled in the mirror before concluding I was perfect.My handbag was blue as well. A matching brand that I had gott
Sarah's POV..The office still remained silent as the only thing Clark did was smile while staring at me. Yes, he had every right to disagree, but he wouldn't dare because of his greed.I was well aware of what Clark wanted. He would use Hayden to rise so high up into fame, and when that happens he would back out immediately."Mr Genaro, are you still with us?" Hayden broke the silence by asking, and that was the moment Clark diverted his eyes back to Hayden."Why not Mr Smith. It would be my pleasure to show you around as well when you come." Clark replied.Something was off. I had not yet hit his hard spot yet. I knew he didn't want us to come, but then he agreed so easily."Tomorrow it is then." I said.Clark chuckled,"We just recently discussed about our plans, why tomorrow again? I have a business meeting somewhere else Mrs Sarah." Clark replied, and that was when I knew that I had finally hit that spot.Something huge was going to happen tomorrow at his company, and so he didn
Becky's POV..Alicia remained silent. I stood up on my feet and walked towards her."It's okay to say it darling. Everyone can be greedy sometimes." I assured.She was still silent, and because of this, I reached for her hand."It's just a simple yes Alicia, and maybe we'll work on that later." I said.When her eyes located mine, I knew I was going to get an answer soon."No. I don't want Hayden anymore. I have a life now, a life that I love so much, and so nothing's taking me back. Like I said before, I don't know you, and I don't know your name. Goodbye." She replied.I was shocked, but not too shocked. I wasn't expecting it to be that easy as well.As I watched her leave, I smiled to myself till she exited."It's just a matter of time before you come running back to me." I said, walked back to the counter and grabbed my bag to walk out.Clark's POV.I picked up my phone and then dialed an important number."When will the drugs be shipped in, John?""Tomorrow sir, why?" He replied,
Hayden"Your wife is awake now." The doctor Informed me and I immediately rushed up on my feet. "You did a great job in there, thank you Mr Hayden." She said, and I nodded. "The babies are fine and healthy too, but she'll be on her feet in a few days time and ready to be discharged.Ray and I started walking towards Sarah's ward, and I stepped in. I met Sarah sitting upright on the bed. I had thought it would take her so long to wake, but it took only a few hours. She's truly a warrior, and I couldn't be more proud of her. I couldn't love her less. I was going to spend the rest of my life making this woman happy.She smiled at me when she saw me."Hayden." She called my name softly."I did it!""Yes baby, you did, and I'm fucking so proud of you right now. Thank you for making me a father. Thank you fir fighting so hard for me and our babies.""You like my surprise?""You knew it was twins all along?" She nodded her head with a smile and I chuckled. "I could never ask for more. Than
The hall was magnificent. I walked majestically with Becky holding my gown and my hand, and every single step made the smile on my face grow wider. My face was covered with a vast, but I could still see Hayden standing right in front of the priest, and patiently waiting for me. I took my steps slowly, steadily. I shouldn't make him wait, but I wanted to just a little.Finally, I was standing right in front of him. In front of the man who would become mine in a few minutes time.I love seeing him smile. I was nervous on this day, and so was he.Our companies would merge after this marriage. It was for the best, and it was for the future. HAYDEN: I vow to love you faithfully, forsaking all others. I promise to love, to trust, and respect you. To comfort you in times of need, and keep you safe. All that I have is now yours. To never hurt you, to call you mine, and stay right beside you in times of trouble. I promise to give you my hands and my heart for as long as we both shall live, Sa
Sarah:Hayden and I heard a loud scream. I instantly knew it was Becky and since we were still standing outside, I twisted the knob and opened the door only to meet Alejandro trying his best to calm her down."What happened?"."You're lying! Tell me it's a fucking big lie! Tell me!" Becky repeatedly kept yelling and Alejandro wouldn't listen to me. Two nurses rushed in.I was worried sick and scared at the same time. Something definitely must have happened for Becky to have acted this way.About 5 minutes more of struggling, she slowly fell asleep after she was given sedatives, and it made me calm a bit. Alejandro refused to take an inch away from her."Tell me what happened to Becky." I demanded from him. His face was covered in tears already. I touched his shoulders."I told her the truth. I shouldn't have but I just thought she deserves to know. I thought it was the right time. Fuck!" He yelled."Calm down and talk to me.""Your mother, she's dead." He said.I felt my heart race wh
SARAH:Hayden and I were still in bed. "Aren't you going to the company?" I questioned him, but he just hummed, and turned around. I rubbed my eyes. "Hayden, don't be a lazy ass." "I need to be at the company now." I tried to stand on my feet, but Hayden pinned me to the bed again. I had only wanted him to look at me and stop closing his eyes."Stay with me today." He said, holding my waist so tight. I couldn't move even and inch forward. "Let go, Hayden, I got to go to work." I yelled, but he still wouldn't let go of me. Once I stop struggling, he grip around my waist loosened, and I heaved deeply turning around to face him."You wanna stare at my face all day?""I want you to be healthy Sarah, for our baby, and for me. You've been working too hard since you returned.""The company needs me, Hayden.""And so do I. The baby needs to stay healthy too.""Are you more worried about the baby?""Both." He replied and I chuckled.I suddenly stared at the ring on my finger. "You said you
A Few Days LaterSarah:"Do have a seat please." I said, outstretching my hand and pointing it towards one of the seats right in front of my table."You're welcome Mr Steven. How may I help you?"I made an adjustment on my seat and folded my hands on my desk while I watched him clear his throat staring at me. I had it in mind what he wanted, and I wasn't going to easily agree."You've changed so much over the years, Sarah Lane." He said.I guess he knew a lot about my father's dirty past, and he was trying to use it against me, or make me feel scared. He's also a CEO, and my father's rival. I bit my lower lips, and tightened my toes in my heels to feel a little pain."It's now Sarah Smith if you don't mind."He nodded his head in agreement. "Great.""I don't have all day to waste here. If you don't mind, can you state your reason for being here?" "For now, my company is facing some real crisis, and I'll be needing your help. With your husband's company, you've been able to stand your
Sarah:I had expected us to head straight for Hayden's house, but it was Ray's home. Once the car came to a halt, we all stepped down.I didn't bother asking any questions because it was all clear to me that Hayden didn't want to stay back at his house after he was discharged from the hospital.I stepped in only to meet Stacey in an apron and getting the dishes set on the table."Stacey?"She rushed towards me and hugged me tight. "It's been so long. I'm glad you're back."Once we broke the hug, I stared at her. "How's the company doing?" She nodded her head affirmatively. "I'm really trying my best." "Thank you so much Stacey. I wonder what I would have done without you. It's glad you're part of the family now.""Alright, can we all get ready to eat now?" Ray groaned as he stared at everyone. We all chuckled and walked to the dining where Stacey had everything all set.Hayden pulled out a seat for me, and I sat down. It wasn't so nice that Becky was absent. As I was about to take a
Becky:"Please." Alejandro whispered. I felt his fingers on my face. "Why don't you just get angry and scold me. You're making me feel so bad. You're making me feel I don't deserve someone like you. I feel so horrible already." I tried to look away from him because I wanted to cry, but his fingers wouldn't let go of my face. Why does he have to be so perfect?"I need some time to think about this, okay?" I said."Take all the time you want, Becky, I'll be waiting, but let's go back home. My daughter misses you so fucking much.""What about Sarah?" I questioned."Ray told me he found her in Spain already.""Spain? What the hell would she be doing there? Is she alright?" "Yes, she's fine. She left, but everything's cool now. We're slowly becoming complete once again. It's you left Becky. We all need you back, and without you, it wouldn't be so perfect."I stared at his eyes. Big cyan eyeballs. "I told you in the past that I need time to stay away from my past…"I had not finished talk
Sarah:I still went back to the mansion the next day. It was just like yesterday. No one wanted to give me an answer. Hayden had insisted on coming along with me, but I refused to let him come. I wanted to speak with Mason alone and make him understand I was grateful for ever knowing someone like him.I was allowed in by one of his maids about 3 hours later when it was clear I wasn't going to leave if I didn't see him. I climbed up the stairs and headed straight for his room. The door was opened so I walked in.It was empty like yesterday. There was no sign of Mason. I walked to the bed and saw another picture of myself on it. I heaved deeply and turned it around when I could feel it was wet."Mason, if you're in here, I need to speak with you. Please." I said, touching the bed spread with my second hand. The room was still silent and I guessed he was going to ignore me like he did yesterday. I rose up on my feet and attempted to walk out of the room, but I heard my name."Sarah." He
Sarah:I patiently waited outside while Hayden came to me. As soon as he saw me, he hugged me tight. "What's wrong?" He questioned, and I sniffled. I was deeply contemplating whether to tell him about Mason or not. How would he feel about it. I didn't know if it would make him feel insecure that I badly wanted to talk to Mason before leaving.I had told him tomorrow, but if Mason doesn't let him speak to him, then I would not leave."I'm fine now." He touched my cheeks and made me look at his face. "You don't look fine, Sarah, what happened?" I sniffled. "I need to see Mason before we leave. I can't leave if I don't see him."He brought his hands down from my cheek, and it made me think my words had an effect on him, or he wasn't happy. "Should I talk to him myself, he just…"I shook my head in negation. "No, Hayden, you don't need to. Just give me some more time, I'll find a way myself."He held my hand and nodded. "Let's go."I followed him into the car. All through the ride, I d
