View MoreTyson's POV Everyone looked at me surprised after the outburst, but he wasn't having it. He clearly was trying to set Zina up with me, but the fact that it was the same man, who deemed unworthy years ago. How could anyone be so two-faced?“Did I say something wrong?” He asked.“No, I just wondered if you really think that you are a good judge of character.” I breathed.I looked at Luther wondering if he even knew what he was getting into with me. I knew that he was a cunning man, but he was more creative than I thought.“What are you saying, Mr. Reed?” He asked, and I composed myself. I tried not to act rash because I almost lost myself hearing his belittling words, but I mustn't let him caught up on my identity. “Nothing, I think I should_” I was saying, but trailed off as Luther’s assistant walked to him, and whispered something in his ear.I smirked knowing what disaster I just rolled out for him there was no way that wouldn't shake the Blackwood corporation.“What are you sayin
Zina's POV Tyson's collaboration with my company was broadcasted on all broadcasting houses, which was solely sponsored by my uncle. That was his way to show people that the Blackwood group was still as strong as ever.“And the rollercoaster begins again.” I breathed, staring at the mirror as I dabbed my face with little makeup. I had to attend the banquet which was held to commemorate the partnership, but I didn't want to go because after my deal with my uncle I felt guilty towards Tyson.Not only did he get fooled by me years ago, I still would fool him this time around again.“Yes, I'm such a horrible person.” I huffed, and I hurried because the banquet starts soon.The banquet would be held in the mansion, and board members and business associates were all going to be in attendance. I knew that it was because they were all curious about who had the new money in town. They all just wanted to submit their proposal, and see if the new money in town has money to purge.“Zina, are you
Zina's POVI breathed a sigh of relief as I watched Tyson walk out of the company, and I knew I got lucky this time around, I wouldn't be lucky another time.“That was so close!” I breathed.“What was so close?” Someone whispered in my ears, and I jolted in fear. “Oh my goodness, Carolina! You scared me!” I complained, glaring at my friend.“Whatever, so about earlier, I don't know when I had a baby? Does this mean Anna is mine, and I can have her now?” She asked, and I eyed her angrily.“I'm sorry, Carolina, but I was just in a pickle.” I apologized. “And stop saying nonsense, you know I said that because of Tyson. Unfortunately for me, I bumped into Tyson while I went out with Anna this morning, and he asked me whose daughter she is, so I had to lie,” I explained.“Oh, so you mean I'm the best person who fits that criteria?” She asked, and I shook my head.“But why are you hiding her, though? I mean Tyson looks more capable to get you, and Anna out of your uncle's grip,” she said.“
Tyson's POV I watched as the two women exchanged looks, and I chuckled at the naivety. How could they be bad at lying?“Yes, Carolina. Remember you asked me to pick up your daughter.” I watched Zina say nervously, and her blond friend nodded her head.“Yes, I think I asked you to do that. My daughter is quite adorable, but I couldn't feed her breakfast this morning, so I asked..” the blond girl said after catching up on the act, but I interrupted her.“Breakfast? Didn't she sleep at Zina's?” I asked, and Zina looked like she was a step away from crying.“Yes, I mean, I missed giving her breakfast because she slept at her aunt Zina's house. My darling daughter must have missed me. I should go call her.” She said, rushing off, leaving Zina alone with me.“So your friend is married, but I didn't see a ring on her finger.” I taunted.“Not everyone needs a ring to be married or an elaborate wedding to stay married, as long as you love the person you picked, but sometimes you might be wron
Zina's POV I smiled awkwardly as I stared at Tyson, who was prying to see who I was hiding behind her, but I couldn't let that happen.“Hello, Mr. Reed, nice running into you.” I flushed.“You didn't run into me, but I came here to meet you, so can you answer my questions now?” He asked, and I nodded my head.I cracked my head on what you said, but I knew there was no way I would admit that Anna was our child together.“She is Carolina's daughter, you know her, right?” I said, still hiding her behind me.Carolina, I apologize, but I really need to save myself, I mulled in my head, but I noticed that Tyson didn't buy the story.“Really? Then where is that Carolina?” He asked, and I bit my lips knowing that he would find it suspicious that I was babysitting my friend's daughter so early in the morning.“That's because she slept at my place last night.” I blurted.I was so stunned at how smooth my lies were, but I wasn't planning to back down. While I was looking for Tyson, I thought he
Zina's POVTyson dragged me to the bar entrance, but I tried to get back in because I was scared that the man might be really dead. What if he got locked?“Are you crazy? We should go back in to check if he is alive?” I said, but he hissed in frustration.“Are you kidding me, right now? I just saved you, and you wanted to give back in?” He asked. “Yes, I just can't leave a man to bleed to death! I have to help him.”“You have to help him? Did I misunderstand the situation?” He blurted.“What did you mean?” I asked.“Maybe the man wasn't harassing you after all. What are you now? A slut that sells her body after..” Tyson said, but I cut him off with a slap.“What? A slut? You have really lost your mind? How dare you…you should know that I'm not that kind of person, but what do I know, you aren't the Tyson I knew.” I heaved.“And so? Are you also the Zina I knew? Definitely not because you are just a pathetic liar? Everything about you was a lie!” He screamed, and I saw hurt in his eyes
Zina's POV I was dragged to the bar after a long day at work by Carolina, even though I wanted to back out, but she didn't take a no for an answer.“I don't understand why we have to be here when we have to go back to work early tomorrow.” I said as I took a seat, not without the drunk men gawking at my friend, and I.“That's the point girl, you need to have a hangover so you don't get hung over at work.” She said with a wink, and I shook my head at her crazy utterance.We ordered drinks, and not long enough we were drowning ourselves in liquor, but I made sure to drink little because my uncle would flip if I missed work because of a hangover.“So, tell me, how do you feel seeing Tyson again?” Carolina asked.I paused with her question, but I quickly masked my expression. “Nothing, it was great seeing him again.” I lied.When I saw him after a long time, I thought my heart was going to burst because of excitement, and I was scared too. Scared that my uncle was going to tear him apart
Tyson's POV The drive home after I left Blackwood corporation was silent, as Victor didn't say a word even though I could tell that he had a lot of things to say.“Stop sighing already, and ask away.” I breathed out after getting enough of his constant sighs.“I'm sorry, I didn't know that my sighs got on your nerves, but I don't understand why you are investing so much in the Blackwood corporation if you want it. You can get it without investing.” He says.“And who says I'm investing?” I asked, with a smirk. The meeting with Luther Blackwood today was all a camouflage because I knew a man like himself would trust even a conman as long as money was involved. I needed to blind him with money, so his fall could be more severe. “Oh, you are not then I don't think Miss Blackwood needs to be concerned then.” He said as he resumed going through the iPad in his hands.My jaws tightened hearing Zina's name, and my mind jolted back to our interaction earlier. I didn't know what came over me
Zina's POV I walked back to the boardroom, and I wasn't surprised that Craig was still having a meeting with my uncle, and from his gaze, I could tell that it wasn't going well.“How could you go back on your words, Mr. Blackwood? You begged me to make this investment, and..” I heard Craig say that, but my uncle cut him off.“Why are you acting as if you did that because you like me, you asked for something in return too, didn't you?” My uncle asked, as he glanced at me, and I felt disgusted.Did he ask me to take over the project because he made a deal with Craig? How messed up could he be?“Maybe you are right, but with what you just did I could already tell you aren't a good business partner, so I'm calling off the deal.” I heard Craig say, and his partners agreed.“Oh really? That's bad, but don't worry your little investment won't be missed.” He said, and Craig walked out of the boardroom angrily, but not without having a word with me.“Did you know about this?” He asked.“Do I
Zina's POV Tonight, I was finally losing my virginity—and to my husband, no less. The feeling of having my vagina popped at last.I stared at Tyson as he carried me across the room, his arms strong and steady. "You know," I teased, "you're supposed to carry me over the threshold, not to the bedroom."He laughed, his grin as wide as the sky. “Who says I can’t do both? Besides,” he leaned down to kiss me lightly, “I could carry you forever if I had to.”I giggled, feeling a warmth I hadn’t known in years. “In that case, you better make me comfortable.”His deep chuckle filled the room as he kicked open the door. My breath hitched at the sight inside. The room looked like a dream—candles softly flickering, rose petals scattered across the bed in a pattern that screamed romance.Tyson laid me down gently, his dark eyes locking with mine. I felt a blush creep up my face as I whispered, “You know I’m a virgin, right?”His expression softened, and he brushed a strand of hair from my face. “...
