I stared at the waves of the ocean, taking in the beauty of nature with my eyes closed.The silence was deafening as I remembered the years of my turn around.As I sat close to the ocean in silence, I couldn't help but reflect on my life and take a recap of everything from four years ago and be grateful.The presence of Jaxon again in my life, trying to force everything back meant nothing and I was going to make sure he neither touched nor saw the twins again."Aren't you bored Sitting down here all by yourself?. I guess some things about you will never change after all these years.....dear wife."The moment I heard those words, I felt chills run down my spine,while I slowly turned around and the devil appeared to have been cocky enough to manifest my thoughts into reality.Standing before me once again was Jaxon.I could feel the tension rising between the both of us, while the waves of the ocean were the only sounds that could be heard between us. Despite his usual arrogant compos
It was noon time at work and I could barely concentrate on anything. It didn't need anyone to tell me I was a total wreck at the moment.From the moment I had laid eyes on Ayla , my thoughts had been all over the place and it made me totally disorganized.The door opened and my secretary briefed me about my meeting with the top drug investors,but I was paying no attention."Excuse me sir?" I heard her voice come through."What is it? I shouted, can't you see I am trying very hard to concentrate here?" I barked at her and she lowered her head."I'm sorry sir,it's just that I requested for a manual handout of the document and you appeared to be staring into emptiness." I looked up at her with rage in my eyes and she apparently got the hint, getting out of the office almost immediately. Getting up from my desk, I began pacing back and forth in my office,starting to create a strategy with my thoughts. I'll throw a party on my private island, invite everyone we know and love, and share
stream of compliments swept over me as I left the conference room. With joy flushing their faces, the investors smiled broadly. I had just signed one of the best deals out here in the city and I couldn't be more proud of myself at that moment.One of them gave me a firm handshake and said, "Ayla, you nailed it! You're a natural-born leader, and we're thrilled to have you on board!" With a smile on my face, I experienced a wave of great achievement and pride. My future appeared more promising now than ever now that the deal was completed and the contract was signed.At that very moment, the investment firm manager walked over to me, a dapper smile lighting up his face. With a quiet, smooth voice, he murmured, "Ayla , we're so proud of you. We would like to provide you with a unique gift in celebration. An exclusive celebration for you on a secluded island. It's something that one of the top CEOs is giving out to you freely " As I tried to assimilate what he had said, my eyes grew
"What's your take?" I asked, looking at her with a hopeful gaze while she just looked away from me."I don't know why you all feel like she's a bad person but I can assure you that she's a good person and I love her,but you should also know that I love you and I'll do anything to make you happy, even if it means me cutting off persons you don't want in my life. I know that you are just trying to look out for me" she muttered as she held my hand."Jaxon , I'm sorry for everything that happened the other day. Those words that I said to you, I can swear on everything that I own in this world that I didn't mean them. They were just words said out of anger" she apologized looking so sincere and remorseful that I couldn't help the smile that curved up my lips."It's fine. Gosh! I'm late, we'll talk later in the day. Hope the picnic is still on, we can just make it a dinner date or what do you think?" I asked as I walked towards the door."Anything you want is fine, let's go for a date tomo
"Hello babies, it's been so long here and I'm sure that you all miss me. I also miss you all, just decided to drop this short video since it's been a while and guess what it's happening today. I have a date with my dad! At his bar" I giggled as I turned the camera to the front of my father's bar, "let's go, guys. I'll send some pictures and snaps on how my day went as usual. Bye guyyyyyys, Ayla loves you all" I said before ending the video,and took off my glasses as I stepped fully into the bar.I don't know what plans my father had up his sleeve but I know that it can't be anything good, he sounded too confident on the phone that I won't leave here the way I came and I know better than to dare him, that man might be my father but that doesn't change the fact that he's a monster. I smiled darkly as I saw him sitting at our usual spot sipping calmly from the bottle in his hands. I took a snapshot of him for the sole purpose of feeding the media, of course. They must believe that we'
I walked out of the company feeling so exhausted and weak, Richard made sure that I finished all the work that I neglected for the past two weeks. He said that was my punishment for ignoring him and the company that I had risked everything to lift to this level just because of a woman, but he was wrong there because she wasn't just any woman. She's my woman! Mine! And I don't know what I'll do if she ever leaves me. The only home I know is her. We had to even cancel the hangout we said we would have after work hours because I left work late and will be getting home very late. This is the first time I'll be leaving the office at this time of the day, so I decided to walk around the office and check the surroundings."What are you doing in that place?" I asked a young girl I saw working on the computer in front of her and I was surprised when she flinched in shock with so much innocence but I was still suspicious and wary of her. What could she be doing here by this time of the day even
"Hello!" I said on the phone immediately she picked it up."Father, you finally remembered me. I have always told you that bitch wasn't useful" she chuckled and I smiled wickedly."You've always been right and we both know that you're always on point" I praised her."Stop it, Damien . You never cease to make me happy whenever you call!" She laughed." I need you to come home, daughter. I want you to finish the mission with Jaxon , she's trying to act smart and his business is booming more than usual lately, and we both know how much that annoys me" I said." I thought the rumors I heard about them being married were false, father. Why didn't you invite me to Ayla's wedding?" She whined and I chuckled thinking of how amazing it is that she loves Ayla even though they have never met. I wonder how she'll react if she finds out that they're blood sisters and my new wife is their biological mother."Father!" She called, pulling me out from my thoughts."You know the rules, young lady! Do
I was sad since we came back from New York City because Jaxon has been ignoring me since I refused to go with him to the business meeting but I wonder why he couldn't try to understand my plight? This party is something my friends and I have been planning for a while. How can I just call them a day to the party to tell them that I won't be able to attend it because I want to go with him to his business meeting. Won't it look like I'm dumping them because I'm now married to him?I smiled as I stared at my hand and I remembered how he held my hand when the private jet was about to take off and when it was about to land, I didn't believe that he could be that considerate about me after what I did. I rolled on my bed unable to sleep, I scoffed in anger with the thoughts that he might be asleep by now but little did I know that he was working his ass out to calm himself down.I picked my phone and decided to call my friends knowing that those girls of mine will surely be awake, either i
