Catherine's POV:I don't know what to do. I couldn't leave the both of them alone, fighting. But I also couldn't go closer to them, I didn't want to get hit. I was torn between two decisions. I didn't know which one to go for or which one to do. I just today stared at them not until Liam wanted to punch Anitra that I had to snap out of my thinking and do something really fast. "What is going on here? What the hell is wrong with both of you! We are celebrating our graduation and here you are fighting! I don't understand what is going on. Why are you guys fighting? " I yelled, my voice rising and lowering at the same time. They separated from each other and Liam glared at me, I don't know what the f*** Anitra must have told him but he seems so f****** angry with me. "What is going on?" I asked this time nervously." You know what I have always been telling us to get you back but seriously it is better this way you are a problem more than you are worth. " Liam said to me and
Catherine's POV:I was hot for him. I didn't even care about any other things at that point, I just wanted him inside me real quick.I quickly unbuttoned his shirt and pushed it down his shoulders, my eyes still fixed on him.He smiled and dusted his fingertip on my lips "You are beautiful." He whispered before yanking the front of my dress down causing my breasts to spill out. He pinched my already hard nipples and I cried out. I needed him so much.He did the same thing again and I gasped loudly, pushing my breast to his face before he took it inside his mouth , sucking and pinching me until I was begging.He released my breath and continued his assault on my collarbone. Jesus.I might just come while he does that.He pulled my dress up to my waist and his hand already between my legs, his hand on top of my coochie.I just needed him to touch me there before I lost it."I can smell your arousal, Butterfly. Are you wet for me?" He asked me, a playful smirk on his lips.I wanted to s
Ace walked inside the house after dropping Catherine off at her house when he got inside he saw his mother standing inside the living room. He wasn't surprised, he knew that she would be waiting for him when he returned."Ace Michael Hampton what was that f****** all about in your school? What were you doing with that girl? What the hell is wrong with you? Why do I keep doing something and you try to ruin it? Why can't you see what I'm trying to do? Why can't you support anything just why? Why are you such a nuisance?" She asked angrily.Ace sighed softly and stopped walking."Okay I don't understand what you are trying to do, so tell me what are you trying to do mother. what is it that you are trying to do if not to send her to jail for something she didn't commit when you didn't know the full story about what happened. You are just bitter towards that girl and it shows and just to be clear I won't let you hurt her ever, I'm going to protect her and before you attack her you will
Catherine's POV:Mom left.She let me make a decision to with follow her to London or wait for two more days before a private jet come and pick me up.I chooses to stay behind.I had to choose, I had to do what I got to do.

Catherine's POV:I was surprised.How and when did he plan this? I was dumbstruck.I glanced at him and he was silently gauging my reaction, his eyes following my every move."This is so sweet of you, Babe." I said and kissed his lips. "Thank you."He smiled and led me towards the table.I loved this.I loved it. I loved everything about this.Ace has been super sweet to me that I don't even know how to react. I don't want to think about that boy that made life hell for me in high school, I want to think about this boy that cared for me and made me. He is everything I ever wanted.He pulled out a chair for me and I sat down. He walked to the other side and sat down on his chair as well.He looked up at me and smiled, his dimple becoming more visible.How could someone be so beautiful? How could he be blessed with the beauty of five people? Just how?He opened one of the plates and I smiled. Bite sized pasta. He opened the second one and my eyes widened, fried chicken? Oh my goodness.
Catherine's POV:Ace didn't know the reason why I asked him if he would like to meet up but he was excited to meet up with me.I invited him to my house.When I got back home I changed into leggings and a yellow hoodie, I also washed off the make-up and any trace of me being outside pro calling him away.I sat down on a couch inside the living room with my phone in my hand, trying to forget whatever was going through my mind.I was in pain.I was falling apart silently and couldn't tell anyone about it.I was in deer need of breathing space.Margaret walked out of the kitchen and dropped a plate of potato chips in front of me.I looked up at her and smiled. She always knew when I was sad and when I needed some distraction "Thank you, Margaret." When she left I continued going through my Instagram feed until I came across a post from Liam.It was a picture of him and Ace sitting down while there was a cheeseboard between them.They must have been playing each other.'A King's knows wh
Catherine's POV:I stared at the ground, my lips thinned and my eyes glassy from the tears there."Am I not worth your fight? Why can't you fight for me? Just because my mother threatened you and you're already planning whatever twisted shit is going on in your head, what the fuck! " Ace yelled at me and I took several steps back, my hand shaking, I clasped my hands together to stop them from shaking and looked up at Ace."I think this is best for both of us, Ace. Our feelings for each other since we were just a child can only go a long way." I said carefully, I was scared of how he might react, even as I tried to act strong, my voice was failing me woefully.I lifted up my eyes to meet that of Ace who was watching me with a shocked expression.My stomach aches badly. The look in his eyes tried to break me, to break my resolve.He looked like I just wounded him so badly that he might not heal from it."You are breaking up with me? Are you for real? For what? I did nothing but love an
I stood there for a little while. Scared to call him. Scared to go inside because I didn't know how he might react.I brought out my phone from my pants pocket and dialed his number. It rang twice but he didn't pick up. I called again but he wasn't answering so I opt for a different option. I texted him a message. Ace, I know that you're angry With me at this moment but we Can sort it out, come Downstairs, I'm here. CATHERINE xx.I send the text message and waited for a while then dialed his number again. I got the same response as the first one, my calls were sent straight to his voicemail.I wanted to give up.I was tired to trying and didn't want to push him too hard. I was mad at myself for being the cause of his anger.After standing there for a while and he didn't show up, I finally lost the little hope that I had.I turned back towards my car
It was the final court hearing of the case between Mr. Alexander Meyers and Mrs. Danielle Meyers.It was a famous case being held on TV screen where everyone can watch it.Veronica Hampton was sitting down on her office, her laptop in front of her as she watch the trial. "Your honor, Catherine Meyers Hampton was loved by my client. He provided for her. Sent her to the best school in the whole of United States of America. If my client had anything else planned for her he wouldn't have let her acquire education. My client is innocent." The defendant attorney claimed."Objection, your honor."

She said and Ver
Ace was laying down on the bed pressing his phone. He had a zoom meeting with his mother and some employees a few minutes ago and he was just intending to get out of the bed.The bedroom door was pulled open and Catherine walked in. She was wearing a black short and a white camisole, her hip length golden hair was packed up in a high ponytail and her face free of make up.“You done with the meeting, Babe?” She whispered asked as she walk into the room. Ace's mouth lifted in a small smile as he tapped his side of the bed for her to sit on.Catherine chuckled at his gesture and slowly walked up to him, she slipped her feet out if her slippers and climbed on the bed. She placed her hand on his chest and stared inside her phone. "How was the meeting?" She inquired curiously.Ace slowly caress her back as she talk to him. The best leisure for him is hearing her talk. Her voice sounds like music to his ear and her touch set his body aflame. The kind of attraction he felt for her was totall
"What happened?" Catherine asked and took the phone from Anitra."Police reject the bail of Chelsey Black." She read out loud and chuckled. "This is mother's handwork."Ace took her hand in his and let out a deep breath. "She deserves whatever Mom will throw her way, she shouldn't have touched you at all.""That is by the way, are you both leaving already?" Anitra questioned and Ace hummed. "We're done for the day." He replied.*****It has been two weeks since Ace and Catherine returned to London and resume college, a lot of things had happened within the two weeks and one if them was that Chelsey Black was fined £100,000 for physically assaulting Catherine Meyers Hampton. Catherine and Ace were done with their classes for the day and we're going to the parking lot, the security team following them at the back. As soon as they got to the parking lot she got a phone call from her Mother."Hello, Mom?" "Hi, Catherine. How are you?" Mrs Meyers asked. Catherine got inside the car and
Ace sat down on the bed beside Catherine and took her hand that has all sorts of wire fixed on it in his hand and sniffed in.“I'm sorry, Butterfly.” He whispered. He should have cut out the bullshits and had Chelsey walked out of the restaurant, but for some time he thought that it was cute seeing Catherine stand up for herself.He had no idea that Chelsey would go to the extent of physically harming her, he never thought of the possibility of such thing happening.The door was gently pulled opened and a nurse walked in. She smiled at Ace and walked around to Catherine's side of the bed. "Good afternoon, Mr Hampton."she greeted him."Good morning, Nurse. " Ace responded calmly. It has been more than 6 hours and Catherine was yet to wake up. It scared him a lot.The nurse checked the drip connected to Catherine's body and checked her body temperature then write it down on her chart.."She will wake up very soon. Don't worry." The nurse told him.He truly hope so.After the nurse left
Ace left for his Mom's room 30 minutes ago and she was still waiting for him to get back to her.The door was pulled open and Ace walked in. Catherine stared at him through the mirror and cocked her head to the side, scrutinizing him as he walked up to her.95Catherine was wearing a lose jeans trouser and one of Ace's t-shirt. She sat before the vanity mirror putting on her lip gloss as some of the servants pull out their luggages.They will be returning to London that same day and she was just getting ready. Ace left for his Mom's room 30 minutes ago and she was still waiting for him to get back to her.The door was pulled opened and Ace walked in. Catherine stared at him through the mirror and cocked her head to the side, scrutinizing him as he walked up to her.“You ready, Butterfly? We don't have much time.” He said as he grabbed his hair brush from the vanity.Catherine packed her make-up kits inside her make-up bag and stood up from the chair, she turned around to face Ace and
Catherine took a deep breath and composed herself before looking up at Ace."Baby." She whispered and stood up from the couch, he walked up to her and pulled her towards his chest, wrapping his arms around her protectively.He kissed her hair and caressed her back slowly. "Is Mom back? Did something happen? Why were you sitting like that?" He inquired." No, I was just feeling a little bit down when you walked in . It's nothing serious." Catherine responded calmly. She gazed up at him and smiled. " How was your day?" "Great, did you have a great time with your mother?" He asked. While they both started walking towards the staircase."Yes, she apologized as expected of her, what about you?" She inquired."Since we will be going back to college tomorrow I thought about spending sometime with them." Ace responded softly, Catherine nodded her head and intertwined their hands."Mother said that she wants us with her during dinner, but first you need to wash up." She told him and winked. "
"I can't believe you Mom, you took such a huge step and you couldn't even tell me about it. What did you take me for? You didn't think about my safety. What if he comes after me without my knowledge? What if Mrs Hampton really didn't find out what you did. What if, Mom?" Catherine questioned angrily when she visited her mother the next day.She was beyond pissed off, Alex is a psychopath he is the kind of person to go to any lengths in achieving their aim, someone who caused the death of his brother and then take custody of the daughter for more than four years before carrying out his plan, someone with such patience and calculative method can do anything, he is sick!"I wanted to tell you about it sweetheart. I just didn't think of telling you immediately, you just got married. I didn't want to spoil your mood. I'm truly sorry baby girl. I don't think of you as a child that shouldn't know about something like this, especially something that can cause you a lot of harm. It wasn't int
After a while in her mother's house, Catherine called Ace to come and pick her up but I told her that his driver will come and pick her up because he would be going somewhere with his mother. After a while Mike arrived to pick her up and she ordered him to take her to Talia's place so that she can go and show Mr Scott gratitude for what he did for her at her wedding. "I wasn't able to congratulate you for your marriage yesterday because there were lots of people." Mike said and glanced at Catherine through the mirror. "Congratulations on your wedding..... Mrs Catherine. Sorry, I don't know if I can use 'Mrs Hampton' for you."Catherine laughed softly, her hand covering her mouth. "It's okay, Mike. Thank you for your kind words and you can call me, Catherine. I don't mind."Mike nodded his head and the journey continued silently.When they got to Talia's house the gate was pulled open and Mike drove in. Mike came down and opened the car door for Catherine. When she stepped down from
Catherine and Ace got out of the black Lamborghini after driving inside her mother's compound. She glanced up at the mini mansion in front of her and she couldn't help but smile."Let's go." Ace said, he intertwined their hands and led her towards the front door. When they got inside Mrs Meyers was sitting down on a couch, watching a news station on the TV."Mom." Catherine called, Mrs Meyers raised her head up and her face lit up in a smile, she was hoping to go to the Hamptons mansion later in the day with her gift but good enough they came around instead."I was planning to come to the mansion later." Mrs Meyers said as she stood up from the couch, she kissed Catherine's cheek and hugged her son in-law."Ace insisted that we come this morning," Catherine replied and rolled her eyes playfully at him, " How are you doing? I couldn't see you yesterday since we both retired to the bedroom early." When they went inside the house the other night they both took their shower and slept off
