The two ladies stared at each other; Sarah looked away while Penelope began banging on the door, calling for Ezra to open it.Ezra entered his private suite and began scrolling through his tablet while Aron prepared him coffee for the pancakes."You should have chased Miss Penelope away," Aron advised.Ezra ignored him and continued with his tablet."Sir, they might physically start a fight or kill each other," Aron insisted."Is my coffee done?" Ezra asked Defeated, Aron looked away. "Just a minute," he said.In the other room, Penelope turned and yelled, "This is your fault!" with the intention of slapping the living life out of her.This time, Sarah blocked her and held her hand.Penelope tried to use the other hand, but Sarah blocked it too."Listen to me, you malnourished slut!" Sarah tightly grabbed both hands. Penelope tried to push on her, but Sarah was stronger than her."Next time you touch me, I will sue your pathetic ass!" Sarah warned, pushing her off.The main door op
Sarah stared at the two with no hint of surprise on her face. She had seen it in the pictures online; anyone who paid attention could see the two were fucking.Liam got up, irritated, not minding that his junk was exposed, while Penelope got off the table and quickly put on her dress. She looked around for her underwear but could not find it."Fuck!" she cursed.Sarah finally looked away."What the fuck are you doing here?" Liam yelled at her."Would you first put that thing aside?" Sarah yelled at him."She is going to talk! I warned you to fire the stupid girl!" Penelope yelled at Liam.Liam moved towards Sarah. "Any word out of this room and you are fired!" he warned.Sarah smiled, "You two are adults and know exactly what you are doing," she replied.Liam kept moving closer, boxing her against the wall."I will not only fire you, but I will make sure I make your life a living hell!" he spat out.Sarah looked him straight in the eyes. He was not joking. He meant every word, but she
Sarah was forced to take a step back by Ezra's icy-sharp gaze that he hooked on her. His breath got ragged, and his mouth tightened as if trying to hold back what he truly wanted to say.His hands were trembling, he noticed. The button that was currently on the floor connected all the doors in his cutting executive office. He spent thousands of dollars on it, which was more than the clueless girl in front of him could ever imagine spending.He rolled himself up to the elevator and tried to use the buttons, but they were inoperative. He went for the front door and repeatedly tried to open it with his key card but it seemed to be stuck too. He turned to face Sarah, who stood in the corner of the office, praying for none of the doors to open."Are you stupid?" he roared at her. "Do you know how much this system cost me?"Sarah exhaled deeply. "I needed your attention without you calling your security or using the elevator," she said.Ezra shrugged, looking away. The woman was definitel
Ezra broke eye contact and looked back at the resignation letter. He finally picked it up and tore it to pieces before throwing it in the trash.Sarah stared at him, her mouth agape.He looked up at her and said, "The system you just damaged is worth thousands, so where do you think you are going to get a job to pay off the debt?" he asked.Sarah kept staring at him, her jaw hanging."According to my calculations, you will need to work at least three years for you to pay up," he said. "So in short, your salary will be going directly into my account," he added, and he went on with work.Sarah grunted; she was caught out of words. She looked away, tempted to kick anything near her or his face.She began believing the man was mentally unstable. Of all the things she said to him, he only acknowledged her resignation.She looked away, trying to control her anger.Ezra's phone rang, it was Penelope.His jaw tensed, staring at her caller ID. He pushed his phone away and went on with his work
At that moment in time, regret hung over Ezra like an unrelenting shadow, tainting even the slightest moments of happiness with anguish, a continual reminder of how pitiful his life was despite all the wealth and influence he possessed."Is that your room? Penelope asked, "I'll lead the way.""Sir," Aron interrupted."It's fine, leave," Ezra commanded, entering his hotel room, "I will call you when I need you."As the two walked into the room, Aron was only able to stare at the door. His boss appeared to be in trouble.Taking his phone out of his pocket, he called Marian.Inside the hotel room, Penelope took a seat on the bed."I did not want things to get to this point, but you forced my hand with the stupid secretary," she said."How much do you want?" Ezra got straight to the point.Penelope chuckled. "I want you," she replied, to his annoyance.Ezra looked away."A woman needs a functioning dick," she bluntly said."So you went on a rampage fucking my brother!" Ezra yelled."Woul
Meanwhile, Sarah managed to get out of Melrose and run to the bus stop. She couldn't believe she overslept on a stupid office desk.Her back hurt, while her head felt like a block of ice. If it were not for Chelsea calling, she would have slept in the office the whole day.She was sure Ezra was not in his suite. The jerk got the doors working and chose to leave instead of waking her up.She gritted her teeth as she entered the bus. Or did he expect to start working? He refused her resignation letter, the very letter that he asked of her the second he laid eyes on her.The man had multiple personality disorders.The bus stopped at her house, and she got out cursing. She was now officially his slave for life, and even after telling him her side of the story, she was still not free.She was about to enter the house when her phone rang. It was from an unknown number. She breathed a sigh of relief. For a second, she thought it was Ezra calling."Miss Sarah, this is Aron, Sir Ezra's butler
Even when Ezra's hand was taken out of Sarah's hair, the awkward one-sided kiss went on. Although she was loving it, she was expecting him to end the kiss, but he didn't, so she continued kissing him.Ezra felt his stomach rumble forcing him to open his eyes. He had drunk a lot of alcohol in a short period of time.Unexpectedly, his stomach gave out as he lifted his head with Sarah still kissing him. In her mind she thought he wanted to get on top of her so she went down, however, all of Ezra's stomach content went up his mouth and ended up in Sarah's mouth as she froze in horror.Ezra grinned and tugged on the pillow to his left, chuckling uncontrollably.One by one, he moved his legs to the other half of the sheets and laid his head on the pillow.He sighed as if a lot of weight had been lifted off of him."Clean that mess up, it stinks," he said, a smirk on his face.Sarah, whose mouth and shirt were covered with puke, got up trying to get as much of the puke out of her mouth and
Sarah got up, her heart racing. She was clearly the stupidest woman on the face of the planet."Did the hot cripple blindfold you when he took you there?" Chelsea giggled.Sarah closed her eyes. "Just a second," she said, walking to where Ezra lay."What's the name of this hotel?" she asked.Ezra raised his eyes to meet hers."I want pancakes," he said."What?"He closed his eyes. "Do not leave, stay and read me a book," he requested. "You can use room service and sleep on the bed," he offered.Sarah moved a step back."Stay; you deserve the luxury," Chelsea whispered on the phone.Sarah was quiet, seconds ago, the Jerk puked into her mouth. He did not apologize and had the audacity to laugh at her.Ezra turned to face the other side. "You are probably used to leaving me, you can go. No one is forcing you to stay," he whispered.Sarah felt a huge sink in her stomach. The alcohol was talking; he was not in his right senses. The tone he used was not commanding but rather calm."Stay!" C
Sarah opened her eyes, staring at the beautiful ceiling that stared back at her. She wanted to concentrate on such peace. Memories of the previous day were still vivid, but she wanted a new start.She looked to the other side of the bed and found it empty. Ezra had informed her he was going to go in for work early.The board had voted to reinstate him in order to cover up for Liam's crimes as they waited to make the world believe Liam never took over but just stepped in when Ezra was on leave.The company was distancing itself from Liam. He had no one, and Sarah couldn't help but feel sorry for the fool, though he deserved whatever shit he was going through.She dodged a bullet with him; she was lucky he only made her sign a contract to spy on his brother. Worse, he would have pimped her to some ugly old man.Just thinking about it made her skin crawl. She got out of bed and took a shower. She needed to get the fool out of her head.She ate her breakfast and asked Aron to accompany he
Ezra slowly raised his hands; he had made sure to remain on the door so that Penelope's back was facing the back door, just like he was instructed.She looked unstable; she did not appear to be joking around or having a bad day. She was there to kill and was going to make him watch.The police officers needed to hurry; he was running out of what to say to her. Watching his wife in the clutches of the mad woman was unbearable.He hated being helpless, and he was running out of patience."Wait, wait, I can help Liam out of prison. I can make the evidence disappear," an idea popped up.To his irritation, Penelope burst out laughing. "This is not about that stupid jealous pig!" she yelled. "Why do you always feel the need to want that ungrateful fool to like you?" she yelled at him.Ezra looked away."He hired me... or should I say pimped me to pretend to love you, and all the money you were giving me, we would blow it on wild sex, drugs, alcohol, and stupid things!" She kept laughing.
Sarah held her tummy, trying hard not to show fear. If she was going to die, she was going to die brave."What exactly did I take that was yours?" she asked."How dare you ask such a stupid question?" Penelope yelled, moving closer and pointing the gun at her."I need Clarification, I do not see anything in my house that belongs to you," Sarah replied, showing no fear.Penelope looked around and noticed the packing. "Going to move in with the cripple?" she laughed."Yes, we plan to raise our baby together and hold a wedding after I give birth," Sarah smiled.Penelope charged at her and pointed the gun at her face."Get on your knees, you stupid woman!" she yelled. "Get on your knees!"Sarah slowly got on her knees."You think this is a joke! You think I will not blow your head and leave your brains for that stupid Ezra to come and mop up?" She yelled.Sarah kept quiet."You are now quiet!" Penelope yelled, hitting Sarah with a gun on the forehead.Sarah winced a little but maintained
Penelope arrived at Melrose exhausted. She had to beg for a ride from a stranger since going back to Ezra's mansion was out of her options.She walked to the entrance and noticed it was too crowded as if something was going on.She ran upfront and noticed some board members. The elevator stopped, and Liam walked out with cuffs behind his hands and two men in jackets following behind him.She hid in a corner, confused. From the badges, she could tell the men in suits were FBI.She covered her hands over her mouth and watched as Liam was escorted out like some hard-core criminal.The entire building was brought to a standstill. All the employees want the front roll seat with cameras taking videos and photos. Penelope was aware she was supposed to run after them, stop them, or ask what was going on, but she chose to hide. The jerk left her in the mountains so she was not going to pretend.She did not want to be implicated in whatever he was being arrested for.As soon as the car drove
Liam quickly snapped out of his shock and got up. He could not believe what he was hearing."What did you just say?" he asked."You heard me perfectly and loudly," Ezra replied."You signed a document binding you to sell the company to me!" Liam scattered everything that was on the desk, sending it to the floor.Aron heard the noise and quickly ran upstairs, where Marian, Chelsea, and Sarah were, and informed them of the visitors.They all ran downstairs to Ezra's office, where they found Liam yelling at the top of his voice while Penelope was standing in the corner."You are not going to get away with this! Not when you signed the contract!" he yelled."Sue me; you are free to sue me," Ezra replied."Get out of my house!" Marian yelled. "Get out now!" She ran to her son's side and ordered Aron to go and get the gun."These animals have been a thorn in my son's butt for too long!" she yelled.Penelope ignored her, her eyes fixed on Sarah's tummy. There was no way she managed to get Ez
Liam sat in his office, admiring the numbers on his screen. The progress he had made in less than a month was astonishing.He was nearing the value that Ezra wanted to buy the shares at. One more week and the company was going to be officially his.He got up and poured himself a glass of wine to celebrate. He could only imagine his stupid brother's face, watching him bring life to the company.The door opened, and Penelope walked in."You are just in time for a mini-celebration," he said, getting another glass."Celebration for what?" Penelope asked. "I will only come and pour a glass with you when you officially take over the company," she added, taking a seat."You are such a party pooper," Liam sneered at her."Numbers are nothing when there is a crazy man with a temper on the other side," she warned."Ezra will sell; he already signed a document binding him to sign," Liam pointed out."What if he has healed and wants to concentrate on the company?' she asked. Liam paused with his
Sarah could not believe what was happening in front of her, but him trying to kneel was straining his spine, which was not good for his health, so she ran to him."Ezra stop!" She knelt on her knees and tried to hold him, but Ezra wanted to apologize.From day one, he put her into sh*t; he made sure he reduced her to sh*t, but she kept going back to him over and over again no matter the kind of shit he put her through.She was his second chance all alone, but his stupidity to hold on to her mistakes and his mistakes when she almost cost him a chance at a happy ending."I am sorry, Sarah. I am sorry for being an animal to you," he said, tears running down his face. "I have so much anger inside that it blinds me, and I fail to condone people's mistakes," he said to her.Sarah hugged him; she had no idea whether it was because he was on his knees, or the effort he was making but all the anger he previously had for him disappeared."I am sorry Ezra," she wiped her tears. "I should have t
The ride to the hospital was in silence, Sarah had requested to ride with Aron in front of the limousine. She needed to process Ezar's confession without having to look at him.She had no idea whether to believe him or not. When she slept with him, he was hard in seconds. There was no sign of him having problems; he was perfect for someone who was in a wheelchair.She tried remembering the details again but could not find faults. Was he really only capable of getting it up with her?"She tried looking back, but there was a barricade in her way that demarcated the front and the back."Do you want me to open it?" Aron asked."No, no, no," Sarah replied, looking away."Would you open the window for me?" she requested, trying to open her side of the window."I can turn the air conditioning on," Aron suggested."No, I want fresh air," Sarah replied.At the back, Ezra was visibly shaking. When Sarah worked with him, she was 24/7 with him. The woman practically lived with him. The baby was h
Sarah kept driving with no idea where she was going. Marian's reaction kept running over and over again in her head. She was hoping for Marian to be on her side, but instead, the woman appeared to be worse than her useless son. Every move she was making was turning out to be a nightmare. No job, no money for rent, and was now pregnant for a man whose family did not want anything to do with her.She looked around, noticing she had no idea where she was and that it was getting dark.She was also running out of fuel; she needed to stop her car. She looked around and noticed a parking space. She drove in and stopped, tempted to scream, but the voices of laughing children prevented her. She appeared to be in some sort of children's park.She looked at her arms and noticed the red patches from the slaps she received from Marian. The woman was crazy; she grabbed her purse, checking if she had any money for fuel, but did not even find a coin."Fuck!" she screamed this time. She was now the m
