Kelly’s POV

I entered the meeting room and I clenched my jaws after seeing all the shareholders sitting on the long conference table while Connor Foster, my uncle was sitting on the middle chair.

I dropped my bag on the table and stood in front of everyone. “What is this meeting all about?”

“Miss Monroe, we’re sorry for calling an urgent meeting when you just encountered a fire incident.” I pressed my lips together as one of the shareholders spoke.

“We called because we want to make sure that the company will not suffer, Miss Monroe. We have heard about your little drama with your adoptive father and step brother.”

I looked into Connor Foster’s eyes because of what he said. He looked concerned and serious which annoyed the hell out of me. I definitely know why he’s doing this. He’s trying to poison the minds of the shareholders so he can get the position back.

I took a deep breath and pressed my palms on the table before I lifted my face and looked at them again.

The strong facade he’s keeping seemed to have collapsed and I saw a vulnerable man I’ve never seen before.He knew her? How?Sara’s eyes went through me and found Caleb behind me and her expression slowly changed, making me even more suspicious.They definitely know each other.Caleb cleared his throat as his hand slipped between my arm and my waist. “Kelly, I got to go.”I nodded at him, still suspicious. “Hmm! Thanks again for visiting.”I watched Caleb as he walked in front of Sara who looked away and was obviously avoiding him. My hunch was confirmed when I saw Caleb glanced at Sara Foster again and her husband was looking at him with an angry face.Sara cleared her throat. “Is she my niece?”Clenching my jaws, I walked towards the bed where Snow was peacefully sleeping. Ana was constantly glancing at me as if waiting

    Pierce’s POVI took a deep sigh and scratched my cheek when I saw mom in the dining hall, sitting while watching something on her ipad. My forehead creased after I heard a familiar voice from the ipad.Mom glanced at me and worry filled her expression. “Son, how’s Snow?”“She’s fine. What’s that, mom?” I asked curiously and walked towards her. I kissed her cheek before I pressed my palms on the table and stood beside her.“Look at this, son. This is Lexi’s interview. She suddenly appeared after went missing and she’s telling the media that the issue about Kelly and Klay Carver circulating around the internet is true. She said the child is Klay Carvers.”I sucked my breath and sat on the chair beside her. “Don’t mind her, mom.”“Pierce!” Mom looked at me and dropped her ipad on the table. “I can’t ignore this. I treated her well when you’re together and she’s going to do this? I can’t believe her.”“Mom…”“No, Pierce! And she’s even dragging my granddaughter in this mess. How immature!

    Kelly’s POV[Tell me you secured the documents I gave you, Kelly.]I inserted the flash drive on my new laptop and typed the password I input. The photos of the documents he gave are here. Complete.“It burned down with my condo unit, Attorney.”[What? Kelly! That’s the only copy of the investigation file. The investigator died right after your grandmother died. That’s the only thing we have against your mother’s siblings.]I smiled bitterly. “That’s why I’m asking for your advice, Attorney. I have nothing against them anymore. Do you know a way to get a copy of the documents? Maybe the investigator still has a copy?”[There’s no other copy, Kelly. Now, I don’t know how to help you anymore.]I sighed after he ended the call. I know lying to him is wrong because he’s just trying to help me but I can’t help it. I need to secure everything I have even if it means lying to everyone around me.“Is something wrong?” That’s Emily, drinking wine.She took me and Snow to her condo unit. Actual

From my point of view, she has a problem and I don’t have the heart to leave her like that because I treat her like my own sister.I stopped the car in front of her and rolled the window.“Phoebe.”She lifted her face and I saw how sad her eyes were. My forehead creased and I immediately got out of the car. I walked towards her and sat on the empty chair across from her.“Why are you here alone? Are you okay?”She stared into my eyes. “Why did you marry my brother even when you know that he was not in love with you years ago?”I was taken aback. I pressed my lips together as I stared at her face, unable to say anything. She has a problem and it involves her heart.She laughed without humor and drank her beer. “I’m sorry. That was very sensitive of me.”I took a deep breath and sat properly. “Your brother is impor

That she’s actually in love with Caleb, I don’t know how to make her feel better. All I could say to her was forget about her feelings but who am I to say that when I can’t even forget about my feelings for Pierce. When after all these years…it’s still him.I sat beside Phoebe, earning her attention. She looked at me and turned the television off.“Did you call your parents?”She shook her head. “I don’t want them to feel that I have a problem.”I sighed. “Phoebe, they are your family. You can talk to them.”“They won’t understand.”“Pierce will,” I said without even thinking. I guess my instinct was to always trust him and it grew in me.She looked at me and smiled sadly. “He understood, but I can’t tell him everything. I’m…afraid of what will happen.”Fear. It’s always what’s stopping us from doing things we want

    Kelly’s POVI woke up at 4 AM. I slept on the couch and since it’s big, I had a good and comfortable sleep. I went to the common bathroom and washed my face. I tied my hair in a messy bun before I went to the kitchen and started cooking breakfast. After cooking, I decided to go jogging.

I’m going to meet them now.“Kelly, I can’t let another day pass without you hearing my explanations—”I faced him and he stopped walking. “I need time, Pierce.

I’m scared that if I let this pass without giving you my explanation I’d lose my chance again. Kelly, I…I love you so much and I’m willing to wait even if it takes a decade, but I can’t wait in peace knowing that you misunderstood what happened…”I swallowed hard. “T-Then go! Explain it to me.
