Klay’s POV“STUPID! STUPID!” I punched all my men and threw every appliance that my hand reached. I kept on shouting and messing my hair in so much anger because of what happened.Kelly escaped and we we’re unable to find them even after we spent the whole night searching. It’s making me so fcking angry how an invalid man was able to lure every guard I scattered around the mansion just because of a mere shout.“Sir—”“WHAT?” I glared at my right hand man and he immediately bowed his head, fear was visible on his face.“W-We couldn’t trace the owner of the sports car.”I balled my fists that were trembling in so much anger. Emily. Emily and Pierce Anderson are the only people who have guts to go against me.If this was one of them, I will make sure that they will suffer in my hands. Especially that b*tch, Emily. I’ve been hunting her since she paid Kelly a visit in the flower shop. Everything started when she paid her a visit. She must’ve said something to Kelly that messed with her mi
Emily’s POVI stared at Kelly who’s watching me while sitting in the driver seat. She looked exhausted but I can no longer see the fear that I saw in her eyes last night. I started the engine and drove away as I called someone and put an earbud on.[Hello?]“I’m leaving her now.”[Is she okay? She’s not hurt, right?]I rolled my eyes and glanced at the side mirror once again. Kelly is now closing the door.“She’s fine. I already told you last night. She’s not hurt.”I heard him sighed in relief. I just shook my head and smirked.[You treated her well, right? I’m telling you, if you don't, I’ll come after you.]I scoffed. “Come on! You think I’m that heartless? She was so scared last night. If you saw her face while running away from that bast*rd, you’d pity her.”[Just make sure that she’s safe. I won’t forgive you if Carver found her.]“Yeah…yeah! Hey! How about my car? I just bought that recently.”[Find it in the river.]My eyes widened in shock. “what the h*ll?”[I’m hanging up no
Klay’s POVBroadening my authority, strengthening my power and introducing my organization in this country will help me easily find Kelly. Manipulating the higher authority in this country for my own benefit will be of great help and I will do everything to find Kelly. To do that, I need the connection of Emily’s father since he has control all over this country.I came here to negotiate with him but he asked me to marry his stubborn daughter in exchange for a more powerful bond between our organization. It’s in my favor since I know Emily is crazy over me. I will use her until I’m completely done. However, I didn’t expect Emily to rudely refuse marrying me.When I got back to the mansion, the maid’s were in chaos. My forehead creased.“what the h*ll is happening?”“S-Sir, Miss Amanda hurt Mr. Monroe.”“What?” I rushed upstairs and went straight to Mr. Monroe’s room. I laughed sarcastically when I saw him sitting on his wheelchair while his cheek was reddish and swollen. His eyes were
Kelly’s POVDay two of hiding in Emily’s house. I feel like it’s already a thousand years. Living alone is really not for me. I feel like I’d lose my mind every time the hands of the clock move. I was just thankful that I have a baby. At least I can pass my time talking to the life inside me,While sitting on the couch and eating a sandwich that I made, I turned the television on and was alarmed after I saw Klay and Emily’s photo on the headline news.‘Current CEO of Monroe Group of Companies and the heir of Gold Empire, getting married.’My eyes widened in shock because of the news. Emily didn’t tell me about this. What is this?Following the news was the live interview of Klay and Emily.I feel like I had goosebumps when I looked at Klay’s eyes, looking straight into the camera. I feel like he’s looking at me and his stares are giving me a terrific feeling.Swallowing hard, I sat straight on the couch and waited for the interview to start. I was listening carefully as the host intro
Kelly’s POVMy shoulders and hands were trembling. The news on the television kept playing in my mind over and over again. The last smile. The last talk. The last hug. I remember everything that happened before dad made me escape. He smiled at me and said’ he’d wait for me.The fear of losing someone I love brought my heart back to the darkest pit of misery and I couldn’t accept it.I lost my dad. He jumped off the window but was it true? Klay planned to kill my baby and he can kill my dad too. Given that he already threatened me to kill my dad if I escape from him and I did. I escaped.Sobbing, I stared at the man sitting in front of me after I pushed him away and wiped my tears. He’s wearing a bullcap, black jeans and shirt and has a fake beard but I can easily recognize him. The second man who has ever broken my heart after my dad. The second man I trusted but ended up hurting me for his first love.The look in his face and the gentleness in his eyes were so familiar. I could never
Klay’s POVI slammed my fists on the steering wheel after the men I scattered inside the airport reported to me. They’re all looking down like a scared cat. They knew I don’t like their report and I’m so close to choking each and every one of them in so much anger.“Sir…” Another group of men came rushing. “A pregnant woman collapsed inside. She was brought to the clinic.”I immediately jumped off the car and walked towards the terminal. I went straight to the clinic and gritted my teeth after seeing the pregnant woman they’re talking about.“Come here,” I coldy told the one who reported it to me.I punched him on the face as soon as he stood in front of me.“STUPID!” I shouted.“Sir, you can’t cause a scene here.”I glared at the nurse who immediately stepped back. I left the clinic while my stupid men were following me. I went back to the car and balled my fists again.Kelly… I don’t know why you can’t accept me again. This happened to me because of that old man’s selfishness. I was
Kelly’s POV“Kelly…”A soft hand caressing my cheeks and a gentle voice woke me up from my deep slumber. When I opened my eyes, Pierce’s gentle brown eyes greeted me.“Wake up. We’re here.”That woke me up completely. I looked around and realized we’re still in the plane. “Where did you bring me?”“To my villa.”That shocked me. Why did he bring me here and more importantly, why is he helping me? I understand if he still considers me as his best friend but this isn’t right. He’s getting married. Helping me like this will only bring misunderstanding between him and his fiance.“Don’t look at me like that, Kelly. You know why I’m doing this,” he said, looking away.He pulled himself up and carried my bag. He offered his hand to me but I pulled myself up without accepting his help.My legs are still weak and my heart is still aching because of what happened to my dad. If this was Klay’s fault, I swear I will do everything to make him pay. I will not stop until he’s begging for my mercy.
Kelly’s POVI woke up late the next day. The smell of something delicious filled my nose as soon as I went downstairs. The house is huge and yet simple, so I easily got familiarized with the access. Wearing a white dress, I entered the kitchen and found Pierce standing in front of the stove. He’s wearing sweat pants and black shirt. His hair was disheveled and his back looked so s*xy in the morning.I stared at his back. He still has an effect on me but it’s not as fierce as before. My heartbeat is normal. I still love him but I’m no longer in love with him. I don’t know if staying here with him will do good to me or what. However, I will just keep a distance to keep things like this.“You’re up.”His gentle voice brought me back to reality. I smiled at him and entered the kitchen. I sat on the stool while he’s in front of me. There’s an island counter between us, but I feel like we’re so close.“How’s your sleep?” He looked into my eyes intently as if searching for something.“I had
