ONE YEAR LATER

LIAM

It has been a year since that incident. One whole year of regretting, tormenting and resenting myself. Each day, I'm reminded of how I caused Tina’s death. I live in guilt and self-hate. I was the reason for her demise, she died at such a young age, all because of me. Sitting there, in my office. My thoughts trailed to that horrible day, everything unfolded.

“I'm sorry sir, she didn't make it,” the nurse’s words resonated in my head.

“What?”

That day, I watched them wheel my wife out of the OT, covered and lifeless. I had broken down and screamed, held her cold hands and bawled my eyes out, but it was of no use. She was gone.

“You bastard, what did you do to make her end her life like this,” Ethan had yelled that day and attacked me.

Punching and hitting me with whatever he could grab. I left the hospital that day, battered and bloody. Ethan and his mum denied me access to Tina’s body. That was the last time I saw her. During her funeral, I wasn't allowed in

I know Tina will be with him but it's disgusting, a man that put her through what he did doesn't deserve to live let alone be with her. I wish for once they the writers would give the female a back bone. so he's changed big deal. they will live happily ever after again disgusting he's a rapist

    LUCAS WRIGHT “Boss, we just got shocking news,” one of my men said, walking into my room. “What news?” “Liam just took over and is the new CEO of the company,” he spilled the news. My grip on the glass in my hand tightened. “That weakling didn't deserve to take over. He didn't deserve to have any access to father’s property. He chose a foolish woman over getting revenge for Dad’s death.” “What of Marcus?” I asked. “He hasn't made any more yet.” “Keep watching him and update me when he finally strikes,” I instructed, walking over to my balcony. The sound of the door shutting announced the departure of my guard. I relaxed my back against the rails, staring down at the city. I left Australia about a year ago, that bastard who didn't deserve to be called a Mills threatened to hand me over to the police as the wanted guy in Tina Mills’ sex video. Previously, I had arranged and made a desperate guy take my place after almost being caught by Ryan Mills, I knew I had to make a move

    TINA “I'm going out with Ethan later today,” I announced, stepping into the living room where my mum, dad and Ryan were seated watching TV. “I'm not letting you step out,” Ryan declared, rising from his seat. “I didn't ask for your permission,” I retorted, glaring at him. “It's been a whole year already, are we going to keep doing this?” Ryan asked, coming to stand in front of me. “I don't care how long it has been. You cut off ties with me without a second thought. You all abandoned me and only showed up when you thought I was dead. Probably to bury me,” I remarked. “Look, Tina, we…” “Hold it there, mum. I went through hell just because I was born to you, you and your freaking husband. All those times, you never cared. Not even once did you all try to reach me. I battled for my life in the hospital, but someone else came to my rescue before you. You all….” I pointed at them. “You don't deserve me. I regret being born into this family!” I yelled, my eyes glistening. For the pa

    LIAM Tiffany’s sudden visit and unexpected revelation evoked a lot more emotions in me. I wanted to see Tina and affirm that she was really alive, but at the same time, didn't want to. I felt like she had deleted me from her life, I was horrible to her and I totally understood if she didn't want me near her. But then, I wanted to catch a glimpse of her even if it was just once. I let myself wallow in torment since the moment Tiffany left my office, constantly battling with my emotions regarding whether to contact Tina or not. Just this morning, I made up my mind to just see her from afar. I contacted Tiffany. And she informed me of Tina’s plans for the day. “She was going to be at Ethan’s new Hotel and then go to his private beach later,” she had informed me and even went as far as handing me the keys. I arrived at the private beach earlier than I had intended to, I was so jumpy at the thought of seeing my wife again. Upon arriving there, I realized that Tina and Ethan were yet to

    TINA I stood next to Aunt Hailey in front of the OT, I couldn't believe I was back here again. This time to save the same person who had come to my aid back then. Tears were trailing down my cheeks. “My baby,” Aunt Hailey kept crying. Her cry broke me, it made my heart bleed so much that I broke down. I couldn't restrain myself, I cried out. “Ethan, you have to live. You have to survive,” I clutched my heart. “You promised to take Blake and me out when he clocks one, you have to keep your promise, you can't back down now, Please,” I let myself fall to the ground. And wailed even more. “Baby,” a familiar voice I was sure we all were craving to hear called out. “Victor,” Aunty Hailey called and sprang up at the sound of the voice She threw herself into Victor’s arms and broke down all over again “Ethan…my son, he is in there…ba..battling for his life,” she cried. “Don’t worry. Ethan is a strong guy. He has my genes, I'm a strong man, you know,” He joked trying to lighten the mo

    LIAM After running into Victor and hearing about Jessica, I decided to instantly leave the hospital to avoid drama, but then, I ran into the press outside. Since I had no security with me and wasn't in the mood to deal with them, I dodged them and went to one of the balconies in the hospital. The hospital was mine, so, no one questioned or said a word. Sitting there and looking down at the city, I heard Jessica’s loud voice, she seemed to be cussing at Tina, and it made me leave my hiding place. I watched the family drama unfold from afar, soon Tina walked towards my direction, making me step back and hide for a few minutes, only to come out and run into the press mugging her. “Put me down!” Tina yelled. I didn't say a word and carried her towards the car. She couldn't struggle or try to make me drop her, because of Blake in her arms. Pulling the car door open, I gently made her sit in the passenger’s seat and buckled up the seatbelt. “Liam Motherfucking Wright!” Tina yelled. The

    LUCAS My flight landed earlier today, I had come to specially watch the Mills mourn from afar. My men had contacted and kept notifying me of everything. When Ethan was shot, I was informed and right now, I was on my way to the hospital to watch them grieve. Just as I was about to get into my car, my phone rang, it was one of my men. “Ethan survived the shot,” he announced. “What the fuck are you trying to say, you mean you couldn't get a simple job done?” I busted in anger. “He is currently in a coma. I have my men at the hospital, we’d make sure he leaves the hospital in a coffin,” he swore. Hanging up and mumbling about how foolish these boys were. I mean left to me, I would have done a great job, Ethan would have died instantly. If not for Liam’s threat to expose me, I would have done the job myself. I changed my mind at the last minute since there was nothing to watch at the hospital, I decided to go see Marcus and probably congratulate him on becoming the CEO of the company

    TINA When Liam bundled me into his car earlier today, my heart had skipped beats. There was no one around and all the cars on the road seemed to be focused on their destination. I feared that he would take me into captivity again. I couldn't struggle with him, due to fear of dropping Blake. When he dropped me inside the car and locked the door. I almost fainted, but then he calmly explained how he wanted to help out. I never relaxed until I reached my home. And right now, I was still not comfortable. Liam seemed to have changed and it bothered me so much. I kept wondering what he was up to. It's been hours since I got back home, I've bathed, fed and put Blake in bed and was seated on the floor next to his cradle. I never wanted to leave my son even for a minute, he was now my life and spending a minute without him was like being kept in a desert without water. I shut my eyes while lost in thought when my phone started ringing loudly, almost waking Blake. “Why are you suddenly ca

    LIAM Earlier today after I met up with my guys and got the news of Tiffany’s abduction and Lucas’ return. I made a mental note to quicken my plans and get Lucas arrested before he did something even worse. Never did I expect him to suddenly make a move to get hold of Tina. “Boss you should listen to this,” One of my men had said and brought a phone to me. “Boss wants us to get the Mills princess,” The voice of a guy echoed on the phone. I needed no soothsayer to tell me who the said boss was. “What about her child, she is always with him?” Another voice asked. “We should get rid of the child, it's the boss’ order. Make sure to end the baby’s life in her presence and if possible kill the other baby.” The moment I heard this, I swung into action. I didn't care what Tina would think of me or if she would get me arrested. All I wanted at that moment was to get her out of her house. I wouldn't want anything to happen to my child, Tiffany’s child too. Earlier I had figured out that s

    TINA You might say I made the wrong decision, you might say I needed a break from everyone, but I, Tina Mills say I don't. Yes, everyone close to me has hurt me in one way or the other, but getting hurt is one of the things that makes us stronger. I was finally at peace with everyone and held no grudge whatsoever against anyone, my past hurtful memories were forgotten and I no longer had a place to dwell. Oh, I almost forgot to mention. Liam and I were now officially married! Our wedding was tagged as the most expensive wedding in the history of Sydney! We moved into our new house, a house Liam and I jointly built to raise our family in. “Mama!” Blake’s piercing voice echoed, separating me from my straying thoughts. “What's up little man,” I bumped fists with him. “Grandma is calling you,” he pointed in the direction of the kitchen. My entire family and I were on vacation. Dad, Liam, Victor and Ryan were playing video games in the living room, mum, Tiffany and Aunt Hailey were i

    TINA It's been over six months since Lucas’ demise, six long months since everything died down. Lucas had been buried a day after he died. Liam was gloomy for a few days after his passing, which I didn't mind. At this moment, everything had gone back to the way it used to be before all the unfortunate incidents. Only a few things had changed, I was no longer the single spoilt princess of the Mills family, I was a wife and a mother now. “Mama,” Blake’s tiny voice resonated next to me validating what I had just said. “Blakey,” I smiled, pinching his nose. I picked him up from the floor and twirled him around. “Mama!” He giggled loudly. My little boy is now a year and a few months old. He has even started walking and spends half of his day going in and out of every corner of the house, he literally knows the entire house like his palms. “Where have you been Blakey?” I asked, settling down on the bed and placing him on my thigh. “I shall go down with Liar,” he giggled. “You mean yo

    TINA Ever since that day Liam left the house to go find Lucas, I never felt comfortable. I was worried and uneasy. It was so bad that I couldn't even eat. Leah and Riley tried their best to help me calm down but I couldn't, I was just too worried. Each day I cling to Blake crying my eyes out. “Liam is a strong guy, he will definitely come back,” Leah sang these words like a song to me every passing day. Just yesterday, I was seated in the living room watching the door and waiting for the moment Liam would show up when the door was pushed open and Ethan walked in, alone. Seeing him walking towards me alone while he left here with many others filled my heart with uneasiness. “Where are the others?” I had asked. He sat me down and explained everything that transpired while they were out. “And Liam, where is he?” I asked, gazing at the door. “He decided to stay in the hospital with Lucas, he survived the hit.” I didn't know how to feel, It was all too much to take in and process.

    TWO DAYS LATER LIAM It's been two days now since Lucas got out of the Operation theatre, two days since he was put down on this bed, two days since he failed to open his charming blue eyes. I haven't had any sleep since the day everything unfolded, I haven't even gone home yet. Guilt was eating me up, for some reason, I kept blaming myself for letting things get like this. Lucas didn't deserve this, he got deceived. Marcus should be the one lying here in pain. These few days, I regretted pulling the trigger and ending Marcus that way. He had a way too easy death and I blamed myself for it. He deserved to gnash his teeth in anguish and cry out for help which wouldn't ever get to him. But sadly, I gave him an easy death. Sighing, I put my head down on the bed next to Lucas. “I should have tried harder to convince you. You wouldn't have chosen this path if I did that. I'm a terrible brother,” I cried. “Just open your eyes, Lucas,” I pleaded, grabbing his nearly cold hands. “Let go o

    LIAM One moment I was downcast and was about to cry about Lucas’ sudden passing, then the next, someone more shallow minded appeared. It broke my heart that he used poor Lucas this way and discarded him. I wondered if this would have been my fate if I never did a proper investigation into the cause of my father’s death. I stood still watching Marcus utter despicable words and confession of his multiple crimes. Each minute of standing there made me feel like shredding him to pieces but then I was powerless at the moment. When he revealed how he was indeed the one behind my dad’s death and everything thereof, I made a resolution in my heart at that moment. “Marcus’ blood will be spilled by me.” Anger and disgust bubbled inside of me with each passing minute, I watched him send out his men to attack Ryan and me. He stood at a distance watching us, probably to see how his men would rip us apart. In one swift move, I pulled out my gun from under my pants and pointed it at the men w

    LIAM “Do you still want to do it alone?” Ryan asked. His words made me pause in my tracks and turn to him. “I'll do anything to keep my wife and son safe, even if it means teaming up with you. I promised my wife I would get rid of Lucas and I'll go to any lengths to fulfill that promise.” Ryan stayed silent for a while, just gazing at me. “Are we going to capture Lucas or do you want to keep staring like you've suddenly fallen in love with me?” I asked, eying him unpleasantly. He snarled at me, then began walking away. I followed him. “There is no car available,” he muttered. Ethan and the rest of us had visited here prior to today and I knew there was a little garage behind the building, I also knew where the car keys were. We had taken a safety precaution of fleeing, just in case things went haywire. “Wait here, I'll go get a car,” I muttered. Walking into the house, I randomly grabbed a key and headed for the garage, the key turned out to be that of a Maserati MC20. I go

    Ryan I have been tracking my dad’s movement the entire time. My dad is someone who would do anything for the sake of his children. Considering how Tiffany wasn't his, but just my wife, I knew he was okay with using her as bait just to keep my mother and all of us safe. Starting from the moment they all agreed to use Tiffany as bait, I was upset, even mad that my gullible wife agreed to it. I mean, there is a possibility that she will lose her life in the process of being used as bait. I threatened to divorce her, just to make sure she didn't do it, but both she and I knew I wouldn't be able to divorce her. Earlier today, Tiffany suddenly went missing. It scared the hell out of me. I searched the entire house for her but she seemed to have disappeared into thin air and this was on the day I had found out my dad and the others planned to get Lucas. “They took Tiffany with them,” I concluded. Anger coursed through my veins and I rushed into my car. Instantly tracking my dad’s locat

    LIAM Things got all serious the moment we all got into the car. We had chosen one vehicle as it seemed more convenient and allowed us all to communicate easily. “What's up with Lucas, he hasn't made any move yet,” I muttered staring down at the screen that showed Luacs pacing up and down a shabby looking room. “He got a call earlier and is waiting for help to get to him. Help is already on its way to him,” Ethan said. “We have just a problem,” Victor said. “His men.” He fell for the phone call and thinks a rescue vehicle is coming for him. “How about we send the police to him?” Tina’s dad suggested, but Ethan and I were quick to push the suggestion aside. “He gets help from the police,” Ethan muttered. “You should have seen how the police tried to protect his impersonator the night I ended his life.” “That dude has the police backing him up.” “You didn't actually kill the guy, right?” I asked, staring at Ethan “You know, when you have loved ones to protect, you'll be willing

    LIAM I wanted to break the news of my sudden and urgent departure to Tina the moment I got home, but I didn't want to sadden her. The way she clung to my body, how she confessed her Love for me, all made me stall time. Even though I knew leaving was inevitable. I had planned with Ethan and the others on how to deal with Lucas and we came up with a plan to go away from our families while dealing with that Psycho. If we ever succeeded in capturing Lucas and keeping him in our house, it meant danger for our loved ones. Thankfully, Ethan had a hideout where he had hidden himself since the shooting incident to convince everyone that he was at the hospital. The moment Ethan and the others showed up and broke the news of my departure to Tina, her eyes became gloomy but then, she had that look of understanding on her face. The look that read “ I understand you're doing all these for me.” She had followed me into my room to help me pack up without saying a word to me. Facing my closet and
