A complete week passed, and Ezra received the emergency boarding meeting invitation. He sat in his office, staring at it. He was quite aware of the models leaving and understood it was all because of Penelope.

The stupid decision to hand over all the contracts was beginning to bite, but most of the models that left were not up to her hype and following. Despite the hate he had for her, she was her own brand.

Convincing the board was going to be tricky, but he needed to use his head. All he needed was to invite a few freelance models to cover up for the models who quit while looking for replacements, including Penelope's replacement.

The door opened, and Penelope walked in. He looked up. She was supposed to be preparing for the runway show.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

Penelope threw a file on his desk and took a seat.

"My contract negotiation, I want more money, seeing that I will be carrying this company alone," she said.

Ezra kept a straight face, she was joking. She missed

"Would you leave me alone?" he yelled at her.Sarah quickly walked to his desk and placed the bowl of pancakes on it."What the fuck is wrong with you?" he yelled at her. "Did I ask you to bring those stupid pancakes?"Sarah looked away."Pick them up now!" he ordered Sarah maintained her position."I swear if you do not move the bowl off my table, I will smash your head with it!" he warned.Sarah quickly picked up the bowl."Go throw it in the bin and get out of here!"The door opened, and Marian walked into the yelling.Ezra looked away, while Sarah quickly walked out of the room with the bowl."You are taking the anger out on the wrong person," his mother advised."No, I was busy fooling around with her w

    Two days passed with Sarah lying on the chair with no sign of going to work. She had spent the past two days crying and self-blaming.Chelsea walked into the living room and stared at her."Are you not going to work even today?" she asked."To do what? My face is probably reminding him of what he is about to lose," she replied.Chelsea took a seat. "How is this any of your fault?" she asked.Sarah raised her swollen eyes to meet her friend's."I thought you said you did not want to hear any of my shit from work?" Sarah asked."I have seen the online bashing, and even though the jerk deserves it, I kind of feel sorry for him," Chelsea replied.Sarah got up, "It's my fault, Chelsea, they used me to distract Ezra," she cried out, explaining to her friend how she was used.Chelsea's Jaw dropped, she could not have seen it too. Liam was good, very good. Most family feuds involved bloodshed or framing each other, but he used love against his brother.She now understood why her friend was so

    Liam and his guards slowly backed away and walked out of the office while Sarah ran to the door and locked it.She turned and found Ezra still holding his gun."Can you please put that away?" she requested."Why are you locking us in? Why are you still here?" he asked, still pointing the gun."As long as there is no sign at the door saying the company is closed, I will keep coming here," Sarah replied."Are you naturally stupid?" he asked."Maybe," she replied, further irritating him."Can you please put the gun away?" Sarah requested again."This stupid company is done! All the models and photographers are gone!" he yelled at her. "Pack your stupid things and leave!"Sarah looked on the floor while Ezra finally put the gun away."Pack and leave, I do not want to see you when I come back," he warned and disappeared into his office, locking the door.Sarah let out a defeated sigh.She was not yet ready to give up, that was not how her reunion with her long lost best friend was supposed

    The morning came, and Sarah opened her heavy eyes. The night was wild; she lost count of how many times she orgasmed. Even though Ezra was paralyzed, his stamina was top-notch, and he did not disappoint.She could not believe she and Chelsea once questioned his bedroom ability. And the fact that Penelope left him, baffled her. Some women were just too stupid to know how precious something was until they lost it.She giggled and smiled, turning, expecting to find Ezra on the other side of the bed, but to her shock, the bed was empty.She lifted her head, "Ezra," she called out, hoping he was in the bathroom.She got up, waiting for his reply, but there was none. She looked around for a towel and covered herself up.She walked to the bathroom and knocked: "Ezra, are you in there?" She knocked and waited.Noticing that no answer was going to come, she opened the door, finding the bathroom empty. However, she noticed the bathroom was wet, and one of the towels was wet, along with a toothb

    Aron stopped the car and parked it in the corner of the street."I don't remember asking you to park the car?" Ezra asked."Sir, this is not my place, but if you want to test yourself, why not go back to Miss Sarah?" he asked."Start the car and take me to a strip club," Ezra insisted.Aron looked behind him, disappointed. He had a lot to say but chose to keep quiet. He started the car and searched for the nearest strip club.He found it and helped his boss get in. He had no idea what his boss was trying to prove. It was a well-known fact that he could not get it up with women except Sarah now, but instead of going back to her, he was on an experimental search.They got a table, and Ezra requested for the hot girls in the club.Soon, hot girls began parading for an opportunity to dance on his lap.One by one, they sat on his lap, giving him all the sexual dancing styles to arouse him, but nothing was happening.Some went as far as stripping to nothing but their naked flesh.

    Aron ran out of the car to his boss's aid. From the chocolate and flowers on the floor, he could tell something was wrong."Sir, what's wrong?""Break the door down, the useless neighbor is lying!" Ezra ordered.Aron's eyes darted between the neighbor and his boss."The girls left, they waved me goodbye," the woman yelled. "Break down the door, and I am calling the police!" the woman warned."Sir, she is right, we cannot go around breaking people's doors."On second thought, Ezra called the police himself, claiming the girls were in danger. In minutes, the police and ambulance arrived and broke the door down.The neighbor watched in horror.Ezra went inside calling Sarah's name.The police searched every room but found the house empty. They walked back to Ezra."There is no one in this house," they said."Why don't you go out there and find them?" he yelled. "What if they have been kidnapped?"The next door neighbor ran into the house, pissed."I told this man that Sarah and Chelsea

    Sarah blinked her eyes. She was supposed to be yelling and throwing him out of the house, but his presence in Pineyard and her friend's big mouth got her glued to the floor.Ezra smiled at her, forcing the wild night scenes to pop up in her head.Her cheeks flushed hot red, forcing Chelsea to understand in between her and Ezra."No, no, you are not going to get your way with my friend!" she yelled."Would you leave us alone?" Ezra ordered."No, I will not; you should leave before we call the police. How did you even enter the house?" Chelsea asked."Sarah left the keys for me outside her bedroom window," Ezra replied."What?" Chelsea looked behind at her friend, who wanted the ground to swallow her."You left the keys for him?" she asked."No… No, I always leave those keys in case I lose the original keys," Sarah replied."No, you always left those for me in case my mother locked me out of the house or she was away," Ezra corrected.Sarah pushed her friend away, the jerk was starting

    The pilot stopped the jet, and Aron quickly opened the door. He could see both Sarah and Chelsea getting out of the car with their bags and running on the runway to the jet.He helped them get on the jet and grabbed their bags."Are we late?" Chelsea asked."You are five minutes late," Ezra replied behind them. Sarah took her time to gather her breath, tired from all the running, and all the jerk could say was that she was late instead of jumping into her arms.Irritated, she threw the signed contract at his face and went searching for somewhere to seat."You really have to work on your emotions, especially your excitement," Chelsea said.Ezra stared at her."You are supposed to be jumping in excitement," she advised."If I could walk, I would be all over you," he said, giving her the fake smile and collecting the contract. Deep inside, he was jumping in excitement. A second ago, he was sure he was done.He looked at the contracts, making sure the signatures were there.Chelsea rolle

    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
