Annabel's POV

How does he know I'm here? I wondered.

As if he could hear my thought, he answered, "I tracked your location from your phone."

"..." I was speechless.

"My driver told me that you didn't get into your friend's house. I became worried when Beatrice said you weren't at her place."

I still did not know what to say.

He asked, "Can I come in?"

After a short hesitation, I moved aside for him to come in and closed the door behind him. He walked to the middle of the living room, looking around the place and then he turned to me.

"You got the place yourself?"

I shook my head, "It's Scott's."

His silence after that told me that he didn't like what he heard.

"You stay here with your," he paused and finished, "Ex-husband?"

His tone was filled with disgust.

He continued, "The man who turned a blind eye on you when you needed him the most? The man who could have helped your father in killing your daughter, for all we know?"

"Scott is not what you think he is," I spoke quietly, not in

    Annabel's POVI opened the door and replied, "To the wedding."He looked pleased and said to me, "I'll gladly take you there." In a minute, we were on our way to the wedding. I sat quietly in the car and let the wind blow on my face. Each yard away, I kept on hoping that it isn't true. That something happened and Scott couldn't come home but he wasn't marrying Michelle while making me wait for him and after telling me that he wanted me back.Close to the church, there were several beautiful and expensive cars parked in a convoy and the front of the church was empty with the door locked.I still had hope. Maybe the wedding wasn't going on.I stepped out of the car without waiting for the masked man to park properly. He followed suit and stopped me."You can't go in," he said, "Without an invitation card."I paused to think."You said you'll help me," I said to him, "I know there's something you can do to make me get in.""Besides, I just want the church doors open. I'm not going in t

    Myron's POVIt was just what I had anticipated. Every of my actions up until this moment was just to make her realize that I am the good one and Scott isn't. I wanted her to think that Scott had deceived her again and concretize her want for revenge in her head."There's no need to apologize, Annabel," I said softly, "I understood fully well that you were only acting according to your feelings. It must hurt to love someone who-""I do not love him anymore," she cut me off with a deep frown on her face, "And as long as we're together, what I shared with Scott shouldn't be discussed. I only want revenge now, nothing more."I nodded and held out my hand to her. Unlike the first time, she took it readily and without hesitation. We walked into my mansion and I had the house keeper make us lunch.At the table, I noticed that Annabel ate very little and didn't seem to have an appetite.I asked, giving her full attention, "Is something wrong?" "I just want to know how we intend on getting th

    Annabel's POVI remained in my room and waited for the stranger to return. I already had the accessories he'd bought for me packed in different luggages. I did everything and anything to get me busy so I wouldn't think about my heartbreak.Anything to forget Scott, yet when there was nothing left to do I broke down on the bathroom floor and cried.It hurts so much.The man I love is now married to someone else and that's not all, he believes that I'm responsible for the death of our daughter. What I couldn't understand is why he had to come back right after divorcing me. Why did he come back only to betray my trust again?But I knew thinking wouldn't solve anything. It is even bad for my babies whom I'm going to love with uttermost care that they would never feel the brunt of not having their father around.I remained in the bath for few more minutes, nursing my wounded heart before I stepped out acting strong again.It was eight in the evening and the strange guy hasn't returned.

I gave a quiet scream, not wanting to wake my kids however Myron was beyond control."Not today, Annabel!"He took both my hands and pinned them above my head. My eyes widened as I stared up at him, frightened."It's been three years," he groaned, "Three long years Annabel. I thought after what happened with Scott all you needed was time. I have given you time yet you keep drawing away from me! What do you want me to do?! Just tell me. What do I do to make you love me?!"The room became so silent, that I could hear my own heartbeat. I bit my lower lip before I spoke.Tearing my gaze away from him, I said, "Let me go, please." After a moment of hesitation, Myron got off me and walked out of the room slamming the door with a thud. I stared at my damaged gown and even though I felt like crying to let

    Scott's POV"Mommy."I went quiet for a moment. Samantha has never asked me for her mother. Besides, to her Michelle is her mother. Could it be that she is missing her?"Mommy is probably downstairs," I answered her, "I'll get her so you can speak to her."I placed a soft kiss on her forehead and attempted to leave but her tiny hands wrapped around my sleeves. I stopped and turned back.Her olive eyes shimmered with tears. I instantly became concerned. "Hey, cherry," I scooped her in my arms, "What's the matter?? I was about to get mommy for you."Sam hesitated and then she shook her head, "Not that mommy, my real mommy.""What??" I exclaimed, the pitch of my voice causing her to wince. I pulled her in again, urging myself to calm down."Samantha what are you saying?" I tried to make my voice tender, "Who told you this?""Grandpa," she answered, "He said mommy ain't my real mommy."I tightened my fist. It turns out that Dad has been feeding Samantha's head with bullshit."I want my m

    Myron's POVI couldn't mask my surprise when Annabel threw her arms around me in happiness. This would be the first time she's ever hugged me and I did not waste the moment.I hugged her back too, my trembling hands resting on her thin waist. Just when I was getting lost in her scent and savoring in the hour, she broke away from the hug still looking unbelievably at the documents."I can't believe it, Myron!" she shrieked excitedly, "How..how did this happen?"I paused and quickly thought of something, "Uhm..it just happened. My secretary received the invitation and I brought it down to you."But that was a lie. Since she was really mad at me, I figured that the only way to get her anger gone would be to get the damn invitation. So I worked my way around it."Oh, this means a lot Myron! The whole of New York would be there to watch my interview! Mr Davis and Sco-" she stopped abruptly and continued, "The Davis family would be there and they'll fall right into our trap!"I watched her

In Myron's file, he wasn't married neither did he have children at that time.My father continued, "Considering the state our company is right now, going against someone like Natalia and her husband is tantamount to digging our graves.""He stole from us!" I said gritting my teeth, "After you ruefully took all of Annabel's asset you handed it down to him and he ended up running away with it.""Scott that's all in the past now," he replied, waving it off with his hands, "What we should look forward to is the future and do you know what I see?""A collaboration with Myron and Natalia once they arrive at New York." he grinned, "We will use their influence and power to climb to the top again."Disgusted, I shook my head, turned around and left.The next day was the big day.

    Scott's POVMeanwhile, the rest of us at the dinner table had the dessert in silence until Myron chose to speak."Is there a reason you chose to take my kids out of the school premises earlier today?"I lifted my gaze and replied, "Two reasons infact. First, you were terribly late which is irresponsible of an acting father and-""Scott!" Michelle exclaimed, holding my arm to prevent me from saying anything further but I continued."Second, they are not your children. And the day I have them back, I promise to break your neck for taking my place deceitfully."He chuckled and said, "I'm more of an action man than a man of words so I'll keep this straight and direct "He leaned in, "Stay away from my family. From my wife and from my kids. The next time I get report that you're trying to get close to any of them, you will suffer dearly."He stomped the wine glass on the table, rose from the chair and moved towards the sitting room.

Vivian simply waved indifferently at me while Michelle gave me a wink.I looked around for a particular someone but couldn't find him at the table."I am glad that you honored my request for dinner, Mrs Wilson, especially after the accident that occured at my company." Mr Davis said.I smiled, "We're partners now, I do not have any reason to decline your request for dinner.""How has your recovery being? I apologize again."I shook my head as I placed the napkin on my thighs."It's nothing, Mr Davis." I waved it off, "It was only a circumstance. I am fully recovered now.""Very well then, let's have dinner." he declared and everyone began to eat.Despite the clinking of cutleries against the dish wares, the eerie atmosphere was obvious. The silence was loud and I couldn't help but be worried of Scott.I haven't set eyes on him since

The shareholders meeting was rescheduled and I was introduced as the leading head of the Davis' Industries next to the CEO, Scott.With Scott still heading the company I could not take sole decisions in some certain areas however I could influence it strongly. I am not impatient too, infact, I like my revenge slow-burn.Only that, Myron has now become a leech on my skin. He follows me everywhere and wouldn't let me out of his sight.

    Annabel's POV"Maybe it's high time the world knows that she isn't my daughter."Michelle's words rang out a thousand times in my ears."What..what do you mean?" I demanded but she simply rolled her eyes and etched closer to me."I see you as a trusted friend, Natalia.. I've never really had one..so I hope you can keep this a secret." she explained."Yes..yes of course." I agreed immediately, "Well," Michelle took in a deep breath, "Did I tell you that Scott's ex-wife lost her child?."She continued, "Scott loved her very much but she was simply not what he thought her to be and after they lost their daughter, he adopted Samantha just to keep the memory of the unborn child alive.""Oh.." I said silently, "And you? He's.. he's never thought of having a child with you?"Michelle sighed deeply and was about to answer when the door to the room opened and Myron walked in."Hello, Mr Wilson," Michelle greeted, stepping away from me, "I'm glad to see that your wife is okay.""You should inf

    Annabel's POVBright lights illuminated the room I was in. I could barely see anything when I opened my eyes. I sat up on the bed with a groan as a heavy ache came upon my head.I sighed and looked around me. There was no one in the room. I took in a deep breath and memories of being tossed like garbage in the elevator rushed through my mind.Now that I think of it, it was really a nightmare however it didn't feel so at that point in time and it's all thanks to Scott. He had put his life on the line and made sure I didn't sustain any hard injuries.I set my feet on the ground and begin to walk to the door. I should see him and know how he's doing. As my hand rested on the knob, the door opened and Myron stepped in.I drew back.He asked, "Where are you going?" "Is Scott here?" I asked, "I need to know if he's alright and thank him for saving-""That is not necessary, I have thanked him on your behalf. You don't have to go over to him." he cut me off abruptly, his expression dark and

    Myron's POVI grabbed my car keys the moment Natalia hung up. I wouldn't let her continue to do more damage than she already has.I know she wants revenge but her relationship with Mr Davis is becoming suspicious and if I let her continue down that path she might expose herself before long.I slammed the car door shut and turned on the engine. Or maybe I'm only acting this way because I feel insecure. Still, I have every right to behave this way.I could never comprehend the idea of Scott and Annabel together. I have grown to love her so much that I can never do without her nor can I watch her in the arms of another arm.It was for this reason I never wanted us to come to New York and now that we're here, it is left to me to keep what is mine. Now that Annabel has managed to climb to the top of the stakeholders building in the Davis Industries, it means that there will be frequent contact between her and Scott.I swerved to the right, passing the speed limit as I tightened my hands ar

    Annabel's POVI lifted my gaze to find Scott. I breathed in sharply, contemplating whether to use the elevator or not. It's already hard when he brings up all that Annabel stuff say less of us being in the same elevator."The meeting is happening on the last floor," his voice pierced my thoughts as his enchanting emerald eyes fell upon my legs, "Considering those high heels, you would only bruise those beautiful legs trying to take the stairs." I sighed and finally forced my legs into the elevator. My breath hitched as the doors closed silently. I couldn't help but ponder what fate was trying to do, bringing I and Scott this close even when I have decided to put the past behind me and get my revenge.Silence reigned and then,"I can forgive you for everything, Annabel but I don't think I can ever forgive you for destroying your lustre hair."I kept mute."Do you remember the night I proposed to you?" he continued, "When I told you how much I love your lustre hair next to how much I r

    Natalia's POVI dropped the kids off at school today. The smiles on their faces made me very happy. I couldn't help but feel that I'd neglected them for too long, leaving Myron to play both the father and mother role.I chided myself, as I remained glued to the steering wheel, yet I believed that neglecting Ethan and Liam wasn't my intention. I had to get revenge on their father and the entire Davis family for taking my happiness away.

    Myron's POVAt this point, I was already thinking of a way to deport I and Annabel back to London. It was a complete mistake letting her come back here. She doesn't listen to me anymore and just does what she thinks is right and it is of no benefit to me. I downed my third bottle of Scotch and watched the pole dancers closely, trying to get my mind off Annabel's disobedience but it was what led me to the bar in the first place and I can't seem to put it off my head.I need to act fast. I have to find a way to return us back to London and after that, we're never stepping foot in this goddamn city again. I didn't even need to think of how Annabel doesn't see me anymore ever since she got busy with the Davis'.It's always, "Good morning, see you later!" or "I have business to catch up on!" Even the kids barely see her. She comes late from wherever she went, takes a quick shower and buckles up in bed ignoring my questions with a plea of, "Please Myron, I had a long day."I clutched at t
