“The ugly scars on my thighs. James made them,” Gemma revealed.“Come here, Gemma,” James's voice resonated in her head, making her grip on Derek tighten.“Raise your dress.”Her traumatic memories came crashing down on her. Tears trailed down her face as James placed the tip of a burning cigarette on her thigh.“Scream and you'll get it worse tomorrow,” he warned. And just like that, James used her to put out his cigarettes each time he smoked. All to make her unattractive for any man. Apparently, it was her lesson for reporting him to their parents.She was 18 when it all started. James had snuck into her room at night and tried to get her to sleep with him. But then she refused, running out of the room and eventually spending the night in the storage room. It went on for a few more days and she decided it was time to tell Sylvia.“Mother, James has been visiting my room at night. He touched me and tried to make me sleep with him,” Gemma could see her young self complaining to Sylv

TWO WEEKS LATERIt's been over two weeks since the couple’s life changing experience. Derek was thankful Gemma had opened up to him. To him, it was her way of telling him that she was ready to be loved. Her way of telling him that she was ready to try out being in a positive relationship for once.“Go check what's holding my wife up stairs,” Derek tapped Nora softly.Today was a very important day for Gemma and he didn't want her to be late.Nora raised an eyebrow.“Why don't you just go yourself?” “Or you don't want to end up undressing her instead of urging her to get dressed quickly,” she taunted him.“Young lady, go get my wife for me,” Derek was tempted to roll his eyes at her.“At your service Mr. Ferguson,” she laughed, then got off her seat.“Oh. There she is. Your precious wife in all glory and beauty. Radiating like the sun rays, turning heads, being the center of attention. There she is, the one lady that could make a thousand men bow at her feet with her beauty…” Nora read

After Derek left, Gemma found her way into the elevator. Derek had wanted to tag along but this was her fight, not his. she knew she'd be able to pull through on her own. Thus she made him leave but not without promising to reach out to him. If things turned south.“I can't believe she is challenging her mother, “ she could hear the employees whisper as she passed them. No,it wasn't whispering. They were being pretty loud. As if they want her to hear what they're saying about her.Ignoring them. She got into the elevator. Looking around, she realized she was the only one that had gotten into the elevator. The employees that were walking right behind her, had all stopped and stood gazing at her as the door closed.She sensed something was wrong. But didn't really want to seem like she was overreacting. Yes, the employees hated her but it wasn't to the extent of not getting into an elevator with her.“I should get off. Something doesn't feel right,” she mumbled. But then. It was already

When Derek escorted Gemma to the company’s entrance, he never left. His mind wasn't at ease, knowing the type of vile family she came from, he knew he had every reason to worry. Instead of heading into his car and driving off. He hung around the reception area wanting to make sure that Gemma makes it into the meeting room safely before he finds a way to also go up the building with her, outside of her knowledge.He watched her walk towards the elevator with the employees. But then, when they all took a step back and let her get in alone, he knew something was definitely off. To confirm his suspicion, the moment the elevator door shut, one of the employees put up a sign that the elevator was under maintenance.He immediately walked over to the elevator. Knowing Gemma's life was in jeopardy, he didn’t bother to exchange words or say anything with anyone, rather he tried to look for the stairs. The meeting room was on the 10th floor, so he rushed in.“There is a major event going on in th

“Let’s get you to the meeting room first. We can deal with this prick later.” Derek took Gemma’s hand and led her out.“I’m sorry I didn’t help out real quick.” He pulled a shaky Gemma into his arms.Looking around, he could see the entire employees staring at them. Not wanting to give them the impression that their cooperative little act of wickedness on her had worked out, he led Gemma away from there and into the women’s bathroom.“This is just for women,” one of the foolish women in there tried to tell him.Looking at her face, he recognized her as one of the employees that had taken a step back and let Gemma get into the elevator alone. She was part of the sick plan and sick trick they played on Gemma.“Make sure you continue working for James and his mother your entire life. Because the moment you leave this company, no one will hire you…at least I’ll make sure of that,” his voice was so calm like the ocean before a storm but the intensity of his eyes made the lady shiver.“I’m s

Getting into the meeting room, Gemma found her way to her rightful seat, right next to her mother. As she got to the seat, Mr. Hughes took quick steps and approached her.“Let me,” he said, pulling out her seat for her.Gemma smiled and lowered herself on the seat.“Thank you,” she said.The man nodded and walked away to get to his own seat.Sylvia, who was watching the whole exchange, couldn’t stop herself from scoffing.“You do know you’re a married woman, right?” she randomly threw a question at Gemma.Gemma turned around to look at her.“Are you by any chance talking to me?” she asked, her hands were clenched under the table. Gemma was vibrating, wanting to tear her mum apart. She wanted to confront her concerning the elevator issue but managed to keep her cool.“Why fool around with one of the shareholders when you are married?”“Don’t lecture me. Save your strength for Elena and James,” Gemma rolled her eyes.Sylvia glared at her but Gemma flashed her a smile, much to her annoya

About a week agoGemma and Derek were seated in a restaurant. It was as if they were waiting for someone to arrive. Soon mr. Hughes walked over to them and took a seat right next to Gemma.“I’ll go straight to the point,” he said after they exchanged pleasantries. “I’ll raise the topic of dismissing Max at the meeting instead of just dismissing Sylvia,” he revealed.Gemma was stunned but then Derek didn’t seem surprised. It was as if he already knew or maybe expected it.“Why?” Gemma asked.“He doesn’t deserve the seat,” Hughes told her, leaving it at that.“I don’t think you intend for my wife to take that position do you?” Derek who has had a long experience in business could immediately see through the man’s plan.“About that. I intend to take over as the CEO while Gemma gets the position of the chairwoman and COO,” Hughes told them.At first, Gemma completely disagreed. She wasn’t going to pull out the company from the greedy clutches of her family, only to let it fall into the h

“The buyer will be in the room with you in a minute or so,” the man told them.At his words, the door was pushed open and the assumed buyer walked in.“I vote Mr. Hughes,” he smiled the moment his eyes met Gemma’s astonished ones.Derek was the buyer! Not just Mr. Grant’s shares of that of Mr. Hughes. His entire shares were 40% and he had leverage over every single person inside the room.“Derek?” Gemma rose from her seat, stunned. She stared at him, unable to say a word.“It's concluded then, Max, this is your last day as the company’s CEO. Congratulations Nathaniel Hughes,” the decision was finally reached.The shareholders and directors went over to congratulate Hughes. Max was furious. His anger was directed at Gemma. The foolish child that brought his dismissal.Sylvia was in shock, James was vibrating, Elena was boiling, Gemma was confused."You foolish child,” Max stormed over to Gemma.“I offered you shelter, trained you in school. I fucking did everything a father would do fo
