View MoreAs I found myself seated in the black Mercedes Benz, I snapped out of the spell cast by this handsome stranger. The fear of being kidnapped seeped into my bones. I didn't want to be in this situation, but I definitely didn't want to be abducted."Start talking," I said to the stranger, who looked at me with amusement. "Don't think you can get away with kidnapping me or-""Get away with what? From what I know, no one would come looking for you," he said mockingly before his expression shifted to seriousness. "I'm sorry if I scared you, but I knew this was the only way I could get you to listen to me.""Listen to you? I don't even know you," I cried out in frustration, throwing my hands in the air."You don't need to know me to hear what I'm about to say-""Then why don't you just get on with it?!" I finally snapped at him, studying his charming eyes for any hint of a response. Instead, he smiled and apologized once more."I'm so sorry, Amanda. I-""Hold up," I interrupted, turning to h
Amanda Pov.I didn't peg myself as one who could get angry over the most trivial thing. That is if my ex husband cheating on my step sister was the most common thing that could happen.Currently watching Mirabelle walk down the aisle in my wedding dress, with my father was a big blow to my chest. Marcus stood there in all his foolish glory, grinning as he welcomed his bride.I gripped my hands, feeling about to explode.I knew I took a big risk attending this wedding. The media has given me enough reason not to attend the godforsaken gathering.I put on the most casual item in my closet I could find. Drawing attention wasn't my primary goal. What was? I can't say.Tongues would wag the moment someone recognizes me. They pegged me as an infertile woman and a cheater. I was a joke to many and seeing me here would only make them taunt me more.It was appalling and saddening that no one saw anything wrong with this union. It was upsetting that no one questioned Marcus for jumping into a m
Lucas Pov.My workers filed out of the conference room, and I slumped back in my chair, the tension draining from my shoulders. My annual reports were stellar, and I was still the top dog in the digital tech industry in Italy. But despite my accomplishments, there was always that nagging voice in the back of my mind. "Don't let it fall," I silently urged myself. I had worked too hard to build my company from the ground up to see it crumble now. Discipline was my best friend, the one constant in my life that had kept me going when my dad had scoffed at my dreams.My dad had never believed in me, always telling me I'd never amount to anything, that I was a disappointment. But I had proven him wrong. Every grueling hour of work, every sleepless night spent poring over numbers and strategies, had led me here. And I wouldn't let anyone or anything bring me down. Henry Denver a powerful billionare tycoon, and also my father had it all out for money and power. He craved for those two thing
Amanda Pov.My heart pounded in my chest as I stood outside my family house, the house that held my best childhood memories, but now it was contained with people who wanted my downfall.After seeing the post, my anger couldn't be contained. I tried my best to remain calm, after all Marcus wasn't worth it. But early this morning I received an email from Capewoods Techs Ltd, a company I put my all into. But sadly, it had been given to Mirabelle and Marcus. It all felt like a dream to me. One day I was about to celebrate my wedding anniversary with my husband and the next few hours I am finding out he has been screwing my sister this whole time? And then a few months after, boom they're getting married?And now the only thing that tied to my mom and my sanity was about to be ripped out from me?The resentment burned deep and I could only address the bull by the horn, which was why I pushed the glass door open.As I entered, I was greeted by the sight of my father, my step mother Katlyn
Amanda Pov.As I carefully wrapped the small gift box in shiny silver paper, my heart raced with excitement. It was our special day. Our fifth anniversary. Marcus and I have been married for five years, and it's been bliss.I knew he would be thrilled, just like he always was whenever I put in the effort to make him happy. We have been married for five years and I would say it has been full of bliss.We were both college sweethearts, we dated a few years after college and ended up married soon after. He was the main reason I survived when my Dad brought in Katlyn, my step mother and her daughter Mirabelle. But as the hours passed, and Marcus still hadn't returned from work, my excitement slowly turned into worry. I tried calling him, but his phone went straight to voicemail. It was already 11pm and he still hasn't returned, my worry increased. This was the first; in time past whenever he had a reason to stay out so late he informed me.But today was our anniversary and he promised t
