Nathan's POV

The day has been very busy for me. Running the company is in fact no simple job and I couldn't wait for Scott's quick recovery so he could take back running the company.

Due to the accounts that had piled up and many meetings to be overseen, I skipped lunch and have apparently missed dinner now looking at the time at half past nine.

There was a knock on the door and the secretary stepped in.

"It is pretty late sir," she said, "Would you be staying the night so I could ask the guards to lock the gate?"

I shook my head as I rose on my feet. "No. I will be going home now. I'll continue working tomorrow."

She nodded and left the office while I grabbed my suit jacket and briefcase. Outside, my driver was already in the car. I climbed in with a sigh and placed my head on the rest, terribly tired.

Work at the company wasn't usually hectic however with news of Natalia and Myron's investment and considering their influence in society, people of high calibre have begun to partner w

    Annabel's POV"Well," I said impatiently, "What did you find?"He handed me a list and said, "I went by the year you had given me and searched the orphanages' files for a Samantha but there is no child who bears that name.""What?" my eyes scanned the list and true to his words there is no girl child who was brought to the orphanage three years ago. "How's this possible?" I demanded, "This child I am looking for was adopted from the orphanage three years ago. Are you sure you looked properly?""I did, ma'am. I combed through all the orphanages in New York and did my thorough research but there is no child called Samantha who was adopted."I sighed."Perhaps more information could shed more light?" he suggested, "Like the child's real name and year of adoption and also which orphanage. Maybe we're just looking for the wrong person."I resolved to get more information from Michelle. I returned the list back to him."You may go. When I have these information, I will get back to you."He

    Annabel's POV"A case file...for the custody of my boys?!" my heartbeat accelerated as everything began to spin around me. Michelle held me while Myron helped me to the chair and a glass of water. Michelle picked up the document and read through it."B-but.." she stuttered, "I don't understand? Who would want custody of your children? Aren't they yours and Myron's?"I was too hysterical to reply. All I could was force my sobs in."It's your husband," Myron said to Michelle, "He has lost his senses and has filed for custody of my children! Think of the effect this would have on all of us!""My husband?" Michelle repeated, obviously unable to believe it.She sighed as she spoke to me, "Natalia I'm so sorry. I will speak to Scott right away and get him to stop whatever game he's playing."While she ran hastily out of the restaurant, I remained silent, sinking into oblivion."I warned you about this," Myron began, "You always see me as the bad one now look what your dearest Scott has don

    Scott's POV"Thank you very much, Mr Luis." I shook hands with my lawyer as he was about leaving. We just discussed the details of the case and my chances of winning.I know this would hurt Annabel terribly when she received the case file not to talk of how New York is buzzling with news of the court case. More than hurt her feelings, Annabel's reputation will reduce rapidly but then again, it isn't really her reputation. Natalia is not Annabel.I am doing this to get my Annabel back.BANG! The entrance door opened and closed with a loud noise. I turned to find Michelle. Her raging expression told me that she must have heard the news as well."Have you finally lost it?" she thundered as she tossed her handbag aside, "What is the meaning of this?""Michelle-""Haven't you done enough?" she teared up, "I have endured heartbreak, shame and pain from all of your actions in the last six years, Scott.""Just because I haven't said anything about it does not mean that I am okay.." she sniffe

    Myron's POVIt is a day before we gather in court to fight for custody of the boys. Natalia has not been herself since the news. She's been locked away in the boys' room and only came out whenever the lawyer came.I hate to see her this way and I hate Scott even more. I arranged a meeting with my father. It is the only way I could stop Scott from pushing through with the case.We met in the woods where no one would see us. The moment he saw me, he opened his arms and reached out for a hug but I stepped back, my face straight and expressionless.He cleared his throat, "Since you came back to New York you haven't called me to see you. I was elated the moment I received your call.""No time for pleasantries," I began, "Has Scott finally run mad, huh? What is this game he's playing?!"My father sighed, "I don't know what he plans with this but maybe it's to stop my wedding with Natalia.""Well, we must stop him because it's taking a great toll on my wife." I drew close, "Command him to wi

    Myron's POVI awoke with a start, my heart pounding against my ribcage. I looked to my side and didn't find Natalia. Just then, the shower was turned off and in a minute she stepped out of the bathroom."Where are you going so early in the morning?" I asked as I drew the duvet off of me. "We're to report at the court," she said quietly, "Today is the court case."I blinked twice then I remembered."But it won't be holding," I told her, "Scott should have called it off by now."She simply stared at me and said nothing while I scrambled for my phone on the drawer and opened my media accounts. To my greatest surprise, the case is in fact going to take place.There were already several reporters at the court and the internet was buzzing with Natalia's pictures on every nook and cranny with writhing captions."This can't be," I whispered, "The case should have been called off."I did not wait for a response. I strolled out of the room with my phone and immediately called my father."What

    Annabel's POV "I and Natalia were more than just acquaintances many years ago," Scott was speaking in the plaintiff's box with his eyes fixated on me, "Long before she met her current husband. We had a misunderstanding that tore us apart but at that time she was carrying my boys without my knowledge.""Since she was carrying the boys without your knowledge, how then did you find out?" his lawyer asked."During one of our arguments, she had a fall that resulted to pains. I had her rushed to the hospital and overheard her pleading with the Doctor to keep her pregnancy a secret.""Objection, my Lord!" my lawyer countered."Objection granted."My lawyer stepped forward, "Your Honor, it is baseless assertion to claim that Mr Scott Davis actually had a relationship with Mrs Natalia Wilson. Moreover, the city of New York is well aware of Mr Scott Davis' life as he is a popular figure and nowhere is it that he was in a relationship with Mrs Natalia Wilson."He added, "Besides, my client her

    Annabel's POV"Why were you so confident that Scott would call off the case yesterday?" He looked shocked by the question but quickly changed his expression. "Well..I heard that his daughter was abducted so I felt that he would prioritize her over the case.""You heard? From who? It wasn't published on the media. I had no idea that Samantha was abducted."Myron replied, "Since the case, I have some people keeping tabs on Scott. They must have overheard it and informed me." "You feel comfortable lying to me so skillfully," I stepped up and told him, "You had that little girl kidnapped to satisfy your desire."He sighed, "I made sure she was not handled roughly. She was simply taken to a birthday party and watched over. Besides, it was the only thing I could do to stop the case for you.""I didn't ask you to kidnap an innocent little girl, Myron. I was ready to take up this case not cut ways around it.""...""You don't have to hurt innocent people for me." I ended and was walking tow

    Annabel's POV"Restrain him!" the Judge ordered. The police present held unto Scott but he was beyond control. He had lost his temper and it was obvious why.He could see himself winning the case and custody of the boys however, he cannot win custody without first proving that I am infact Annabel.That way, he would be killing two birds with one stone. He never thought that I'd outsmart him this way."Let me go!" he screamed at the Police, "Can't y'all see she's pretending? She's-""Mr Scott Davis," boomed the voice of the Judge, "If do not return to your seat this instant, you will be filed with contempt of court."Scott brushed the hands of the Police away, took a long, painful look at me before Michelle came and pulled him away. Everyone watched at the Judge scribbled away on his note. Few minutes later, he lifted his head and spoke,"I will have to deliberate on this matter with the council before reaching a decision," he announced, "For this reason, this hearing will continue in

    Annabel's POVThe next day, Myron walked into the room while I was busy going through the children pictures from the orphanage."Miss Donna told me you asked her to pack the boys' luggages." he began, "Are you really giving them up to Scott?"I nodded and answered, "Yes. Tomorrow is the hearing. I will withdraw from the case and willingly hand the kids to him.""Natalia please you have to carefully think this through," he told me, "I can handle this for you. There's still a chance that you'll win the case.""Only if you go bloody," I finished for him, "Involving innocent people into this. Look, Myron, I'll be fine. I will have the kids for the weekends and continue my revenge. I won't let Scott stop me."I added, "Also, I need you to prepare a fake divorce paper with my and your signature.""Why?""I had to tell Mr Davis that we're divorced so he could speed up his divorce with his wife." I answered, "He might need further proof so please help me get it ready. I will show it to him to

    Annabel's POVThe corner of my lips crept up in a small smile. I called Miss Donna to help with chairs in the garden downstairs and some snacks.I had a feeling that this private investigator of mine has something I could benefit from and I needed something to take my mind away from the decision I had just taken.While the investigator waited for me at the garden, I spoke with Miss Donna."Where are the kids?""In their room, ma'am." she answered, "In front of their favorite TV show. They were eager to see you when they arrived. Do you want me to inform them that you're-""No." I answered, "Don't."She nodded slowly and continued with her work while I returned to the garden, taking my seat opposite the man."I never quite got your name?""William." he responded"Right. What did you find on Samantha Davis?""In order for you to believe that I actually ransacked the ten orphanages in New York, I managed to a get a copy of all the children who got adopted in the exact year you sent to me

    Annabel's POVMy lawyer had little influence in today's case. I could not entirely blame him. Since I was not able to prove my location before I arrived at London, Scott gained the upper hand.Outside the court house, my lawyer stopped me."Mrs Natalia, I fear things are not turning in the right direction for us. I-"Myron grabbed his collar angrily, cutting his statement short."Is this the job you do after getting paid? Huh?!"I held Myron's arm, "Myron, let him go. It is not his fault.""It is his damn fault! He damn read the law so surely he could have found something to say! Something to avert this shit!""Let him go, he can't breath!" I screamed and Myron let go and immediately strode towards the car in a fit of rage.I turned back to the lawyer, "I'm so sorry, Mister. My husband has little control of his temper, I hope you can consider the situation and understand."He struggled to speak, "I..I understand ma'am.

Reporters gathered around us asking numerous questions and making absurd statements.With the bodyguards' help we managed to get into the court house despite the paparazzi's harassment.I took my seat shakily beside Myron. I did not look towards the right where Scott and the Davis family were seated. Soon, the court proceedings began."Mrs Natalia Wilson," the Judge called, "Do you have evidence that proves your location before your arrival at London?""Your Honor," my lawyer stepped forward, "My client has made it known to me that she was pregnant with some complications at the time before her arrival at London. For this reason and due to confidentiality, her location before her arrival at London cannot be specifically proved because there were no records taken."The judge cleared his throat, "I hope you are aware that not being able to prove your location with sustainable evidences gives a

    Nathan's POVI arrived back at the house to find the family having lunch however Mr Davis' seat was empty. I stomped at the dinner table, causing everyone to gasp while looking at me with curiosity in their eyes but I was enraged.I looked straight at my mother, "Did you know Natalia Wilson years ago?"She stuttered, "Wh-What..what do you mean?""Answer me, mother!" I banged at the table again, "What did you do years ago?"Scott got up on his feet, "You've to relax, Nathan and tell me what's wrong. Where are you coming from and why do you look so red?""I'm coming from Natalia's house," I answered and turned back to my mother, "And she seems to have something against my mother.""Why did you go there?" Scott asked."I wanted to plead with her to stop this stupid wedding with father because..because it was hurting my mother.""And?" Scott probed further."And she spoke as if.."

    Michelle's POVShe stepped closer, "If you push through with this divorce George, I will be your worst nightmare!" "Do you realize what you're saying, Vivian?" Mr Davis traced his step back and added, "Exposing all that we have done is tantamount to bringing yourself down as well."He continued, "In fact, you carried out most of the murder acts yourself."I gasped, causing them to turn to me."What are you both talking about? What murder and what misdeeds have you perpetuated? Who have you murdered?!" I shrieked as I couldn't understand how they could stand and comfortably accuse themselves of something as grave as murder.Vivian simply smiled, "You heard nothing child." she said to me while my lips hung open in disbelief. I knew I helped them get rid of Annabel's baby but I didn't know that they were monsters even before that. "I don't care if I go down, George." Vivian turned back to her husband, "As long as you go down with me and that Natalia of a woman does not succeed in destr

He smiled upon seeing me."I thought I could catch up with the meeting, turns out I'm late." he said as he gave me his arm and together we walked out of the company."Well with me here, you have nothing to worry about." I told him."To be honest I didn't think you would be able to host the meeting," he said, "I mean with the court case and all..I thought you'd rather be bottled up in your room.""I'm not a woman to carve in to pressure, Mr Davis. I am a fighter and regardless of the outcome of the court case I will still do what I have always planned on doing." I replied."I am more than fascinated with you Natalia," he paused and added, "I thought they could be a way to make you happy amidst this turmoil.""Hm." We stepped out of the company just then.
