Sarah’s POV:
“Are you sure of what you are telling me? I need you to get me more information,” I said.
“Maam, I can't get my information out of that right now. It turns out that it is between Mr. Sam and Mr. Coleman. But it can only be one thing. Mr. Sam is a divorce lawyer,” he spoke.
“Get your hands on anything as soon as possible and let me know. I will be waiting.”
I had been feeling uneasy lately, and I knew that things weren't right. I had ordered the boys to attack Nicklaus penthouse and search for anything that they could get their hands on.
I had also broke into his bedroom to see if I could get my hands on any evidence to get rid of it, but I couldn't find a single piece of evidence.
Does this mean that Nicklaus has no idea about the missing file in my father’s house?
I exhaled deeply as I walked around the room. “What if he doesn't know anything about this? Why had he been acting strange then?”
Immediately, my phone buzzed, and I reached for it. It was a picture of Nicklaus and Alex having a launch.
I dialled a number, “Black Wolf, you should raid the penthouse now. This is the only time we have left. Keep one of your men on standby at the restaurant to see if he would be able to get any information from Alex and Nicklaus. I need to know what they are up to,” I spoke.
“Right away, ma'am,” he spoke, and I hung up.
What could be going on between Alex and Nicklaus? Don't they know that Elena’s house burnt down to ashes in Oregon, and she was in the fire?
I have not heard anything from her since then. She should be dead.
“Something doesn't sit right, and I will stop at nothing until I get my hands on every piece of information. I need to know what Nicklaus is up to.” I spoke out loud.
My phone buzzed with a call, and I picked it up without looking at the caller ID. “Found something already?” I asked.
“I'm glad I found you, Sarah.”
I glanced at the caller ID immediately. “Who are you, and what do you want from me?” I asked.
“Don't you recognise my voice?”
“I do not have time for shitty plays right now. Stop calling my line,” I warned and was about to cut the call when I heard his voice again.
“How is my daughter doing?” he asked.
My heart slammed hard against my chest. “Who are you?” I asked.
I heard a loud laugh on the other end of the line, “You clearly don't recognise me? How would you when you paid those little touts to get rid of me?” he spoke.
“Zane?” I asked, my voice trembling slightly.
“It's me, Sarah. Do you think you can get rid of me and keep my daughter away from me? I will kill you this time around. Just keep watching your back,” he spoke.
“Amelia is not your daughter. Get that into your head,” I shouted over the line, and tears streamed down my eyes.
I threw the phone to the ground and smashed it repeatedly.
I tired around, and my heart skipped a beat to see Nicklaus standing in the doorway.
“Ni-Nicklaus, how long have you been standing here? Are you alright?”
He gave me a daring look as he tightened his hand and squeezed the paper in his hand. “So its true, Sarah,” he spoke sternly.
I chuckled lightly and tried to hide my nervousness, but I failed miserably. “What is true? What are you talking about, Nicklaus?“ I asked
“So it is true. Amelia is not my child,” he spoke out loud.
“Nicklaus, what do you mean?”
“Don't tell me that, Sarah. Answer me, and do not lie to me. Is Amelia my daughter or not?” he asked.
“She is your daughter,” I shouted.
He looked at me for a while; his eyes were blazing red. I managed to catch my breath until he walked up to me and held my neck; he pushed me back against the wall.
“For the last time, Sarah,” he spoke.
“Nick... Nicklaus, you are chocking me.” I cried out.
“Answer the damn question. Stupid. Is Amelia my daughter?” He shouted.
“Nickluas,” I pleaded as he began pressing harder. I couldn't breathe anymore, and I pleaded.
"Please, you are hurting me,” I begged.
“I will kill you with my hands, and I do not mind going to jail for the rest of my life,” he shouted.
“She is not your daughter,” I shouted.
Nicklaus paused; tears rolled down from his eyes, and he slowly removed his hands from my neck. I pulled away, and I fell to the ground. I was coughing uncontrollably as I tried to catch my breath.
“How could you? So you are behind everything that has been going on? I was a fool. You betrayed your own sister, Sarah.” He spoke as tears rolled down his cheeks.
“Nicklaus please. I love you. I just wanted you to love me back.” I was pleased while crying hard.
“I can never love you back,” he shouted and walked around the room. He picked up a file in the doorway and handed it over to me.
“This is the divorce papers; you have to sign here right now or I will strangle you to death,” he warned.
“Nicklaus, don't do this to me. This is humiliating,” I pleaded.
“Before I come back tonight, I want this divorce paper signed,” he shouted and walked away.
“No,” I screamed as I cried my eyes out. I heard the sound of a car engine leaving the house, and then I reached for my phone.
I dialled a number with my hands trembling.
“Nicklaus just left this mansion right now. I don't care what you are doing. Make sure he crashes hard.”
Elena and Zoey sat on the couch as they both ate popcorn and drank fresh juice. Elena rolled her eyes. “I wish I could have some red wine right now, but I still have to follow the doctor’s advice until I get better,” Elena spoke out loud.“You are right. It would have been a great way to watch this movie. Dinner would be ready soon,” Zoey spoke.They both turned around to see Wave playing with his iPad. “He looks so handsome.” Zoey commented.“Elena nodded her head. “I know right,” she said and dipped her juice.Zoey gave her a side look. “So are you waiting for me to ask you what happened between you and Nicklaus last night? I can see the glow.”Elena smiled and shook her head. She opened her mouth to protest, but Zoey cut her off. “Don't even try to protest,” she giggled.Elena chuckled lightly. “Well, I won't deny that something happened, and it was divine. I am beginning to have a soft spot for him,” she explained.Zoey smiled. “Well, I am glad. You finally have someone to ease th
“What do you want from me?” She asked, and her voice trembled. “Are you married?” Mr. Williams asked.“Yes, I am. Do you want me to wait for you for eternity?” she asked. “I am sorry for what happened, Anna. I was young and stupid. I didn't know what I was doing. I thought my parents wanted the best for me, but my life got ruined instead. I looked for you everywhere, but I heard you moved out of the country,” he explained. Anna broke down and began to sob. Her body shook while she sobbed. Williams sat upright and held her in his hands. “I got a scholarship. I had to travel to Korea to further my education to become a nurse.”After a few minutes, she was calm, and Williams gathered the courage to speak, “And the child? The last time you told me you were pregnant,” he spoke.“What do you mean?” She asked, narrowing her eyes and fixing her gaze on him. “You said you were pregnant for me,” he spoke.Anna was confused, and she narrowed her eyes. “Where is Elena?” she asked.Williams na
Elena’s POV:My heart slammed hard against my chest as I stared at everybody. I was filled with confusion, and I tried to understand what I had just heard. “What- what?” I stuttered with tears forming in my eyes. What are these people saying?“What do you mean, Mr. Williams?”Anna walked up to Elena with tears rolling down her cheeks. “Yes, Elena. Please forgive me,” she cried out, holding Elena, but Elena pushed her away.“Let go of me. Mr. Williams, what is she talking about?” I asked."That is the truth, Anna. I am your biological father, and Anna is your biological mother,” he confessed. “You both are liars. Leave me alone,” I spoke and ran outside. Sarah and Zoey stood in the doorway with their eyes widened. I ran past them into the hallway. Zoey ran after her and called my name as she tried to catch up with me. “Elena! Elena, please wait,” Zoey caught up with me and she squatted and wrapped her arms around me. I cried so hard that my body was shaking. I couldn't take it anym
Elena's POV:“Nicklaus!” I called as I ran with the nurses and the doctors inside the emergency. “Nicklaus please. Nicklaus, please,” I pleased. They ran into the theatre, and I was stopped at the doorway.“Madam, you have to wait here. We will do all out best to revive him,” one of the nurses said to me. I stood there in confusion. I couldn't think or do anything. I just wish the ground would open right now and swallow me up. Why is Nicklaus here? He is badly injured.I broke down in tears. Zoey ran to me and consoled me. My body was shaking with sobbing, and I couldn't breathe properly. Just now that I have decided to give Nicklaus a chance, all of this is happening to me. I cried so hard that I didn't take it anymore. It was too much to bear. The doctors were taking so long. They had been operating him all night long.Everything felt so overwhelming. That was when Nicklaus and all of his family arrived. His father, cousins, uncles, and aunties. Nicklaus Butler was with them. Im
Elena’s POV:He started the car, and we left for the hospital. We arrived after a short while, and I decided to go see Nicklaus first. I slowly opened the door to see Nicklaus up and active, even though he looked pale.He smiled warmly when he set my eyes on me.“How are you doing today?” I asked, leaning to kiss him on the forehead. “You gave us a scare.”“I am doing just fine,” he said, and we kissed again when Sarah opened the door. “So this is what you both had been doing in my back? You are a social climber, Elena. “Sarah, not now. I had already signed the divorce papers. You have to play your own part,” Nicklaus spoke.She walked up to me and gave me a daring look. “You are a scumbag,” she spoke and turned to Nicklaus. “I will make sure you pay for it,” she warned and walked out of the room.“I have to go be with my dad right now. I will see you later,” I said and walked out of the room. I walked to my father’s room to see my father lying weakly on the bed. I ran to him, “Fat
Sarah‘s POV:I ran out of the hospital as fast as I could before the security would catch up with me. I got into my car and zoomed off. I was breathing very hard as I drove with tears in my eyes.Elena really hurt me, and blood was coming out of my lips. She punched me really hard. I drank off as I wiped my lips. I wish I had completed my mission in killing Nicklaus. I planned to run away with his money and go far away. It would have been a silent deal, and he would have shut up for like. But right now, I am in trouble. He would not keep quiet. He would expose me and tell the world everything that he had found out.I have to go far away. Very far away, where nobody would be able to find me. I will make sure I execute my plans there. After what felt like forever, I arrived at the house and broke into Nicklaus safe. I carried all of his diamond jewellery and some bundles of dollars. My eyes fell on a pistol, and I picked it up. “This would be enough to get me to terminate him and El
Elena’s POV: I stayed up all night with my father and Nicklaus. Nicklaus’s bodyguards surrounded his room together with the police as he gave his statement. I also have my statement, and I felt relieved that he is now guarded. Alex, Zoey, and Jason arrived and stayed with me all night long. Jason had refused to sleep. He played with my father; I watched them as I smiled. They looked so happy. They laughed and joked until they both fell asleep.I had a little sleep on the couch. Zoey and Alex went home to rest. It was morning, and I blinked, my eyes opened. The police stopped by my father’s ward as they searched for Sarah. She had been on the run since last night, and we have not heard from her. When my father woke up to hear the news of Sarah’s crimes and her disappearance last night, he became weak. I noticed his mood, and I tried to cheer him on. I walked up to him, “Who was that?” he asked.I exhaled deeply, “Father, it's the police. Unfortunately, Sarah is wanted,” I spoke.
I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home. I want to wait here. I know Sarah will come back here,” I said. “It's fin
