Sarah's POVHayden pushed the door open without breaking the kiss and slowly led me towards the bed. I had no idea what I was doing or what I wanted, but I allowed him carry on.His hands were wrapped around my waist as he laid he gently on the bed. I couldn't gather the courage to stare at his eyes until one of his knees touched the bed, making him lean towards me.He lifted his index finger and touched my chin, tilting my head towards his direction. "Do you wanna do this? I won't touch you without your permission." He whispered.I remained silent for a while. Honestly, I badly wanted Hayden and I was sure he knew this. This was something I had repeatedly asked for in the past, but why do I suddenly feel so scared now. "Yes. I want it Hayden." I replied."Are you sure?" I nodded my head in response while Hayden stared at me before backing away a bit.His fingers went to the buttons of his shirt, and he slowly began pulling them off. As he did this, I counted everyone of them6 in
Sarah's POV"You're looking so good today Mrs Sarah. Ohhh, and the smile looks so pretty on you as well." Stacey commented, as I walked towards my office.She trailed behind him, using every single moment to keep complimenting me behind my back."Is there a tight schedule for today as well?" I questioned, walking into my office."Yes. A lot more than yesterday."I groaned, taking my seat."Let me hear them."Stacey brought out her phone."A meeting with Mr Mason by 1pm. You'll need to have a word with some persons willing to buy some of the company's shares, at the hospital, the head doctor would like to see you concerning Mr Lane's condition, and lastly, there are loads of paperworks to be done which would be needing your signature.""Oh Lord." I winced in slight pains of headache when Stacey was done talking."All these in just one day?" "Yep." She replied "Oh, lest I forget, You fixed a meeting with the board members today as well."I groaned even louder hearing that I had just p
Sarah's POVStacey walked in with another new pile of work making me extra furious. "Again?" I exclaimed, staring at it and hoping someone would come take me out of my misery.Stacey nodded, "Sadly, there's more."I groaned out loud, dropping my pen on the table."Shift the meeting with those willing to buy some of our company's shares forward. I'll deal with all these later. Tell them I'll be ready in 30 minutes time." I said, suddenly losing interest in having more paperworks checked and signed.Now that Stacey already mentioned my dad again, I wanted to go see him badly. "Please schedule a meeting with Mr Rodriguez tomorrow." I instructed and she immediately pen down what I just said."Alright, thank you."I leaned back on my chair watching Stacey leave my office. I needed to relax a bit. I dropped my pen back on the table and rose up on my feet. Adjusting my gown properly, I walked towards the door and exited the office.Stepping out of the company to go get a cup of Americano
Sarah's POVI opened my eyes with a slight headache to find myself in a hospital. Staring around me, someone was seated at the other end."You're awake." He said, staring at me with his fingers folded together.I sat upright to give him a closer look."Mr Mason?" I called in shock, as I couldn't believe what I was seeing.He rose up on his feet and walked towards me. "You can call me Mason. I guess our supposed meeting ended up in a hospital." "I don't understand, how?"I suddenly recalled,"Were you the one who saved me?" I questioned, touching my head as the headache turned worse."I wouldn't use the word save. Let's just say I helped you." He replied.I chuckled, "Thank you very much.""You must have been in a lot of shock, are you alright?" I groaned suddenly, recalling that I had left so many things behind in the office. Stacey, my meeting, "Shit!" I groaned, standing up on my feet."I really have to go now. Thank you so much for saving me. I'll thank you properly if we get to
Sarah's POVI walked into the room and took my seat. All the board members including my mother was present.I could feel her hard and cold stare at me, but I didn't care one bit about it."I'll be digging out some dirts from the past very soon, especially those one that affected the company really bad which my father failed to notice." I started.They all cock their heads towards one another murmuring in quiet tones to each other."Also, so many rules and regulations will be changed here. The company's budget is a mess and we'll need more budgets as well as investors. Furthermore, half of the company's profit this year will go to it's budget and this might affect the percentage share of each and every share holders here."Their murmurs even became louder than before. None of them cared about the company. All they were bothered about was making their money and exploiting from it as well.My father might not have taken corrections to that, but I won't sit back and watch these greedy peo
Becky's POVClark walked in, with a lady walking side by side with him. I looked through my window staring at them as they walked in.This wasn't my main concern anymore. I had decided to stop caring the very moment I knew he was nothing more than a monster. Gripping my curtains tight, I only thought about my freedom far away from the devil I call a husband.I wanted to be free from Clark, free to live the right way this time. I shut back my window and sat down on the bed thinking about every possible way I could expose Clark, and leave this marriage for good.Alejandro was the only person that kept crossing my mind even though I kept trying to discard him from my mind as well.He seems like a gentleman, and so I didn't want to make use of him for my selfish purpose. I couldn't bring myself to tell him that I had an abusive husband who was keeping me captive against my own freedom.I decided to let go of every thought of asking him for help, but it seemed impossible. I had no one el
Hayden's POVRay brought in the package that Clark had sent and dropped it on the table. I stared at it for a while before deciding to open it up.When I opened it, they were all pictures in there. Pictures of my childhood days, and the years I was in the orphanage after my parents death.Considering what I was seeing, it was clear that he had no idea where I was truly from, or my family background yet, but I knew he would find out soon enough.I continued staring at everything, trying not to be angry or let his child games affect me"He requested for a meeting as well Hayden, what'd you think?" I heaved, and then gathered all the pictures together."Let him come Ray, it doesn't matter so long he doesn't know everything yet." I replied."You sure?" Ray questioned again.I nodded my head, "Yeah. I should probably give him a taste of his own medicine as well.""Alright. But Sarah..""Leave Sarah to me, I'll take care of her so she wouldn't find out anything till my plans are completed.
Hayden's POVClark and I stared at each other for about five minutes before he broke the silence.I'm here. I guess my package was delivered to you." He said.I scoffed out loud. "I'm listening, what is it you want from me?" I questioned."What a tricky way to start a conversation Mr Smith. I must say, I do admire your courage and how you tend to handle things most times." He replied, but I remained silent waiting for an answer to the question I had asked.He leaned back on the seat to relax."I would have requested for a million dollars, or a contract deal with you, this time my rules, but I need something else.""Go ahead." I answered, patiently waiting for him to say those words that I was well aware he would say."End your contract marriage with Sarah, and back away from her." He said.This got me laughing so hard. I was usually always the serious type, but today was exceptional for me."Why should I?" I questioned."You don't love her. I know you only want something from her."I
