In his cabin, Xavier was very angry. In the half an hour from the moment he walked out of the room leaving Sierra, his foul mood only became worse. He rejected three projects and fired one of his executives whom he noticed was eying Sierra throughout the meeting. He didn't like it, not even a bit.

"Don't you know how to prepare for a project proposal? Does this kind of proposal be accepted by our clients? Get out and redo it" he found himself snapping at his CFO for the pathetic proposal. If his mood was not as bad as it is today, he might have pointed out where the proposal needs to be rewritten. But now, all he wants is to vent out his anger on everyone and anyone. Because he cannot scold Sierra for choosing someone else over him.

He is angry with her, but still he cannot bring himself to hurt her.

His CFO looked thoroughly frightened. He picked up the file before fleeing for his life.

  • Forced to be in a relationship with my Friends uncle   Accusing

    Sierra was not planning to confront Xavier like that. She just wanted to thank him for the bonus and leave. After all, he made her feel that she was discarded and forgotten. But when he came running and called her 'Baby girl', she couldn't stop herself. That's the endearment which he would use occasionally to coax her. So when he used it now and proved that he still cares about her, her pain and longing got the best of her. 'You promised me. You lied to me as*hole' she accused him, momentarily forgetting that he is her boss now. Her actions are purely based on her emotions. Now, wrapped in the security of his arms, she calmed down a little. But she couldn't forget how he looked at her with indifference, as if they were strangers. "Alright, now tell me what happened. When did I lie to you?" he asked softly after she stopped crying. That made her pull herself out of his arms and push him away. He didn't budge, but he still let her go, only not to aggravate her more. She glared a

  • Forced to be in a relationship with my Friends uncle   My boss

    "Don't you know that you are my Boss?" Xavier replied with Mirth. She blushed at his reply. She realised that his attention feels like sunshine, Warm and fuzzy. While his indifference feels arctic, cold and lonely. After being on the receiving end of his attention, it feels as if he is killing her with his coldness when he ignores her. She didn't say anything to that. After missing him for a month, she is basking in the warmth of his arms. Xavier never understood the meaning of being content, despite being a multi-billionaire and having everything he needs at the snap of his finger tips. Now, holding her again like this, he truly understood what being content means. Nothing mattered when she was not there. All of his riches are of no use, when she refused his money time and again. And now everything makes sense when she is back. "If you allow anyone else to touch you again, I swear I will kill that man Sierra. And you will become responsible for his death. Don't forget that" h

  • Forced to be in a relationship with my Friends uncle   His old man

    Sierra found herself sitting across Xavier's lap after what felt like an hour. Her lips are red and swollen from how much he kissed her. But she didn't complain. He lifted her bridal style and carried her to his chair, and made her sit on his lap. He turned away from his desk, facing the floor to ceiling glass wall which is sitting behind his desk. He has the view of the national park, which is sitting comfortably on the shore of a river. "My mother passed away while giving birth to me. And my father hated me for that. He used to call me a monster who killed his beloved wife. I never remember a day where he called me anything but a monster. Starving me and abusing me used to be his favourite. If not for my brother who used to take care of me like a parent, my father would have killed me a long time ago. He was never a father to me, and never once treated me like his son" Xavier shared, taking Sierra by surprise. He is inviting her into his life by sharing his personal things, whi

  • Forced to be in a relationship with my Friends uncle   Everything is yours

    After reconciling with Xavier, Sierra went back to her department to make the changes which Xavier mentioned. But the moment she entered her department, her team started to bombard her with questions. "Where were you?" "The boss is super hot, isn't it?" "How was your interaction with the boss?" "He seems to be too cold. Did he scare you?" Ava, Nova, and the others surrounded her and started to speak at once. "Guys, give her some space" Joshua interjected them. Sierra is well aware of her still tender lips. Thankfully, they are not swollen anymore, but still tender to touch. A certain someone couldn't get enough of kissing her. That thought made her cheeks grow hot. She picked up a bottle of water to calm herself down before facing her team again. "I heard that the boss is angry today. The news from the top floor is that, he chewed and spit out our CFO for preparing a shitty proposal for a million dollar contract." Noah gossiped. That made Sierra feel defensive. "The boss is

    "Everything about me is yours. Then why are you being so petty?" she asked softly. That made him smile. But he didn't like the fact that almost every male in that pub has their eyes on his girl. "I am coming to pick you up now. Be ready" he instructed her, in typical Xavier fashion. She sighed heavily, not at all surprised. "Alright, I will wait for you outside" she agreed easily. Mostly because she is missing him too. Joshua noticed how Sierra's face lit up when she was speaking with whoever was on the phone. "Looks like someone you like" he commented after she disconnected the call. He wanted to know if she has a boyfriend. But couldn't bring himself to ask that question directly. Sierra gave him a smile before replying. "Yaa" she replied, but didn't elaborate. Before he could ask more, she spoke again. "Sorry, I have to go now. See you guys on Monday. Happy weekend" she said, much to his disappointment. She waved to Ava and Amber and motioned that she was leav

    The next morning, the first thing Sierra felt was the soreness of her body. Her muscles are aching and she can feel how sensitive it is between her legs. It's not uncomfortable, but tender. And then, she felt his warmth surrounding her. Her eyes blinked open. She looked at the man beside her. His features are sharp and so defined. He is fit and toned. No matter how much she looked at him, she still can't get enough of him. His muscles underneath her fingers are hard and defined. She doesn't know when he gets time to workout, but his body is a piece of art. "This is the first time you are looking at me for so long" his deep voice made her gaze shift from his body to his dark orbs. When she saw how intensely he was looking at her, she blushed. She knows the meaning of that look. And as if to prove what she already guessed, his shaft became hard underneath her thigh. Until that moment she didn't notice how she was lying on him. Her hands are touching his torso while one of her legs

    "Like hell you will" His words and his intention to not let her leave his home made her feel uncomfortable. She knows that he is demanding and dominating. But he never tried or did anything that's against her will. She did things which she never thought she would do with him. And she never regretted anything. But this, she is not ready for this. She is afraid that she might never be. She was dealing with the depression of losing her mother when she met him. Living with him is making her feel like inviting him into her life permanently. And that thought made her feel uncomfortable and insecure. She lost every person whom she held dear in her life. And she would never want to add Xavier to that list. Their relationship is physical, and she wanted to keep it that way. She already likes him too much to give him more power to hurt her more. "Xavier, let me go" she tried to pull her arm out of his grasp. But he didn't budge. He is looking at her with equal measures of confusion and fr

    "I am scared, Xavier" Sierra confessed. Her confession made him frown. "Scared? of me?" he misunderstood her words. But she quickly shook her head. "No, I am not scared of you. I am scared of you leaving me, just like all of them did. I am scared to invite you into my life. But it's too late. We are already involved with each other. But I could ignore it until now. But living together will make it real. I don't want to lose another person in my life. I already lost too many. I don't have enough strength to handle another loss" she shared with her vulnerable side. The place near his chest ached at her confession. Her vulnerability called up to him. She is like a scared lamb trying to find her footing alone in this world. She is fighting her own demons. "Isn't it too late at this point? I am just not a part of your life, but a very important person as well. We are at a point where we cannot be happy without eachother. Is it not a loss to just let go of me at this point? Will yo

    "Dad, dad" Renee bent her head while crying for Augustine who was lying in the pool of his own blood. The metallic scent inside the room is so thick, that it's suffocating. Janine was watching Renee with malice. "Dad" Renee's sobs didn't melt Janine's heart. Instead, her hunger for death only intensified. "What did you think of me Renee?" her voice made Renee jump with shock. Renee snapped her head and looked at Janine who had blood all over her hands. She was holding a bloody knife in her right hand, which was still dripping with blood. "How can you? He is your husband. You used to love him so much. Then what happened? Why did you kill him like this?" Renee demanded Janine with anger and pain. Janine sneered. "You both abandoned me and Maddy. You took their side and ruined my efforts to kill Xavier. If not for you and that dead man, i would have already killed Xavier and we could have gone back to the states once again. But no, you had to find out everything and your father had

    The fact that Janine is alive but Noel is dead spread like fire. Noel is not just anyone. He is a famous politician. His death spiked multiple debates across the country.

    'Its true' 'Some one really dug up Mrs. Augustine's grave' 'How can anyone disrespect a dead person like this?' 'Is it really Mr. Woods and our President behind this?' 'If not, then why will that person tag them along with the pictures?' 'I still can't believe that they can do this' 'Why can't they let a dead person rest in peace?'

    Janine stealthily slipped inside Xavier's room where his mobile was ringing. She held the knife tightly with both her hands. She is ready to strike the moment she spotted Xavier. But when she scanned the room, she found no one. She strained her ears to hear any noise apart from the mobile ringing. But she couldn't hear anything. After the mobile stopped ringing, silence greeted her. 'Where are they? This is their room and his mobile is here. Why is he not answering his phone?' Janine thought angrily. She searched the room without bothering to keep quiet. She searched the entire house, but she found herself alone in the dark house. She was so angry, she wanted to light fire and burn the house down. But just then, she heard the unmistakable sound of Sirens wailing at a distance. 'He escaped and alerted the cops? How did he even find out about my plan?' she thought angrily. She escaped from the house through the kitchen door before the cops could catch her. On the other hand, Nath

    "Nathan, I think my mom is still alive. Just now i felt like I saw someone who looked similar to my mom just outside Xavier's house" Renee anxiously explained to Nathan. But instead of believing her, Nathan frowned with disapproval. "Renee, I started to believe that you changed. If this is one of your tricks to stop Xavier and Sierra's wedding, then I suggest you stop this. Sierra gave you a chance. Don't ruin it by doing all these nasty things" he reprimanded her. Renee's eyes pooled with unshed tears at the harshness of his words. "I know I have done some things which i shouldn't have, which I regret. But Nathan, this time I am telling the truth. I swear on everything I hold dear. No, I swear on Xavier. I think my mom is still alive. We have to caution Xavier and Sierra, Please" she begged him. Nathan was taken aback when she swore on Xavier, whom Renee loves so much. He suddenly applied brakes on his vehicle and immediately took a 'U' turn. If what Renee said is true, th

    Claire was not very happy about Renee, but Cathy decided to stay neutral. Nathan and Xavier were Renee's friends for years, so they forgave her when Sierra decided to give Renee a chance. "I will get going now. Please don't call me if I could be of any help during your wedding preparations" Renee offered. Sierra smiled. "Sure" she agreed. Claire is not ready to trust Renee just yet. She witnessed how vile and vicious Renee can be. So she doesn't want to forgive her so soon. She is feeling that Renee is just pretending to be nice. After Renee left, Claire couldn't hold back any longer. "Si, what are you doing? How can you forget everything she did to you? At her party, at the mall, in this home, she insulted you countless times. How can you just forgive her because she has mommy issues?" she demanded with displeasure. Sierra was quiet. Indeed Renee did all that. "Claire, you cannot label a person as bad based on their past deeds. What she did was wrong. And she is feeling gu

    After two weeks, Slowly everyone started to forget about Janine. Augustine decided to take Renee to the states. Maddy passed away too, and her cremation was a close knit affair. Her grave was beside Janine's grave. Renee finally decided to apologise to Sierra before leaving for good. In Xavier's home, everyone was bristling with excitement for the impending wedding of Xavier and Sierra. "I love your wedding dress. It's so beautiful" Cathy said about Sierra's wedding dress which was delivered the previous day. Apart from the wedding dress, Sierra and the ladies don't know anything about the wedding preparations. Like Sierra wished, Xavier was handling everything and is ready to surprise her in a week when she is going to walk the aisle as his bride. "Yes, it is. I am eager to see how Xavier would react to it" Sierra said with a mischievous grin. Cathy giggled with mirth. "He would be thinking about peeling that off of you from the moment he sees you in that dress" she joked.

    Janine was arrested and Augustine was cured. Xavier and the others were still reeling with shock regarding the bone chilling revelation of that night. Janine is the reason why Gawin lost his life, and so was his father. Now she was after Xavier and his unborn child over her misplaced anger. No one forced Maddy to commit suicide. It's Gawin's choice to choose who ever he wanted to marry. No one can fault him for not falling for Maddy the way she fell for him. After everything Janine did, going after Xavier's unborn child is the most horrific thing she did. "Xavier, i am extremely sorry" Renee apologised to Xavier with guilt. They were all still in the apartment where Renee and Augustine were forced to stay. Both of them gave an official statement to the cops about everything Janine did, much to Janine's anger. Janine was cursing them while she was escorted to the police vehicle. She was taken to jail and would be soon presented in court. Her sins would earn her a life sentence if not

    "Who is there?" Janine called out loudly before pulling her gun out from underneath Maddy's bed. Both Renee and Augustine are panicking. They are tensed and worried about Xavier and the others. Outside the balcony, all the four men froze. "I am sorry" Nathan apologised sincerely. Xavier shook his head and patted Nathan on his shoulder. "It's ok, it's not your fault" he assured Nathan. Adam and Carlos peeked inside, and noticed that Janine has a gun and she is coming near the balcony. "She is coming, and she has a gun" Adam spoke with urgency. Everyone was tensed. "Nathan, you stay here with Adam. Me and Carlos will show ourselves. You wait for the right opportunity to take her by surprise" Xavier suggested and nodded at Carlos. Nathan held his hand to stop him. He is worried about Xavier. "I can go instead" he offered. Xavier gave him an assuring smile and patted his hand.
