CHAPTER 87

Diego

"Do yourself a favor and get the hell out of here," Sofia told Sonia as she pulled me upstairs.

I could tell Sonia was furious and probably shocked that I had someone else now. I walked away without resisting, leaving her hanging. As we entered my bedroom, I took my hand off Sofia's waist while she poured herself a glass of wine. "Nice acting skills, Mr. Myers," she said, giving me a subtle smile.

"Well, what are you doing here?" I asked Sofia because I had not called for her.

"Nothing came to make use of my abilities. I was a little bored," she said, walking towards me and attempting to fix my collar, but I walked away.

"I do not think you want to do this," I explained.

“I do I wouldn't resist a thing just —”

"Sofia, please keep it professional; I need to get some sleep now," I said, opening the door for her to walk out.

"OK, I see, goodnight," she said, placing the glass on my desk before walking away.

I closed the door and stepped into the shower. I leaned against

    CHAPTER 88Serene I was so exhausted from posing for pictures that whoever informed the media about my arrival did me a disservice, as I wish people could ask instead of deciding to do things for themselves. "Ms. Brights," a familiar voice called out, and I quickly turned to face the person."Hello, Sir, it is good to see you again. How is your daughter doing?" I asked the old man, whose face I recognized.“She's doing fine madam. I was not expecting to see you, but fate made it possible," he said."Oh, you do not have to be so formal; call me Serene. How long should I continue saying that?" I asked with a smile."OK, I will try calling you that, but I still want to thank you; if it were not for you, my daughter would have—”"No, it was God, not me; believe me when I say God saved her, not me; I was simply doing my job," I responded.“Madam, everything is set,” Rina said."OK, I will be with you soon," I told her, before inviting the old man to join me for lunch in the VIP lounge.

Please come back to me, and I will treat you better than—”"Aside from the flowers I carried on our wedding day, do you remember a time when you bought me flowers?" I cut him off."I know I have not done that, but please give me this one chance to make things right; I love you Serene, and every breath without you is hell," Diego said."Thank you for telling me how you should have felt because I do not have any emotions right now. If you do not mind, I am in a hurry; have a good day," I said, walking away without a second thought.I stepped into the lift, and the guards followed me just as it opened. We all got into the car, and I was surpr

    CHAPTER 90SERENE "Ms. Brights, there is something concerning about the blood test results," the doctor said, and my heart skipped a beat."What is wrong, doctor? Is my blood not good?" I asked with tears on the verge of falling out."Not only that, but your blood does not match that of your son," the doctor replied, and I felt as if I had not just heard what he said.“What kind of joke is that doctor, I'm Miguel's Mom,” I replied."Here you can take a look at yourself. I thought it would be easier if there was a high chance, but it shows that you are not related to him in any way," the doctor said, pausing to look at me before continuing, "except for the fact that you are probably a chimera.”“Chimera?” I questioned in disbelief.“Yes, but there's no time right now. We need to act fast. Maybe we should try his father. I am confident that he will not respond negatively," the doctor suggested.‘What should I do now? I don't even want Diego to find out,’ I told myself."Ms. Brights, ar

Maybe it was our past that caused everything, but I have changed so much that I am glad I saved his life. “Daddy, why are you sad?” Miguel inquired as he opened his eyes."No, I am not champ; my eyes are in a little bit of pain," I said. “How are you feeling sweetheart?” Serene asked Miguel, but he ignored her and turned to my side of the bed."Daddy, will I go watch wrestling live when I am better?" he asked me."We will hear from your mom first, you can see she was worried, huh," I replied, looking at Serene, who was staring at the floor."No, we do not have to go with Mommy because she lied and broke a promise," Miguel explained.“Sweetie I'm sorry I wish —”"Mommy, please go away," Miguel said to Serene, who began shaking her head.“Champ, calm down. Mommy didn't do anything,” I said, trying to calm him down."Mommy, you promised to return on time but didn't,"

    CHAPTER 92Serene My heart is not in the right place, and I am scared. I know Diego is furious that I did not inform him about his son's condition. It is not that I did not want to, but my desire for vengeance overcame me and nearly cost me the only person who completed my world. 'Get well soon, sweetheart,' I said in my head while standing beside Miguel's bed."Why are you sad, Mommy?" Miguel inquired, noting how pale I appeared.“Sad, no sweetie I am just bored, so now that you are awake, how about you tell me a little story?" I replied quickly, changing my expression."Okay, but is Daddy coming to listen as well?" he asked."Umm, no, Daddy is out and maybe a little late," I lied."OK, lay here," he said, and I placed my head next to him.I was looking in a different direction as he told me one of the cute stories I had read him. My tears were just flowing because I could not hold them back. My son's voice softened, and I looked up in fear, only to discover that he had fallen aslee

Just as we got home, the entire living room was dark, and I wondered if there was a power outage or something. “Mommy, what happened to the lights?” Miguel asked, looking confused.“I don't know, sweetie, let me quickly find out,” I replied, attempting to switch on my phone's torch when the lights went on, and I realized all Miguel's friends had come to welcome him. “Surprise!” everyone exclaimed and I couldn't help but clap along.“Hi, Ms. Brights,” the little children greeted me.“Hello, how are you, little angels?” I asked.“We're fine thanks,” they responded.Miguel stood up from his chair and began walking towards his friends, who all hugged him and led him to the couch while I poured them drinks. "Look at my little prince; he is so cute," Charlotte said to Miguel, softly pulling his cheeks.“Why is she so mean?” Diego asked as he assisted me in rinsing the glasses."I am not sure; maybe

    CHAPTER 94DiegoThe party has ended, and everyone has gone to sleep. I was standing on the opposite side of the bed as Serene read Miguel a bedtime story. What could be better than watching the two people who bring you complete joy? I know that does not sound like me, but the time I have spent with Serene has made me realize how much more I could have had if I had allowed her to experience my love. I was still thinking when she cleared her throat and told me to leave Miguel's bedroom."Maybe we should talk, Serene," I suggested as she closed the door."Do not forget, Mr. Myers, that you are only here because Miguel needs you. If that was not the case, I believe you know where you would be right now," Serene said, attempting to walk away, but I caught her arm."You might not want to do that, sir," one of her guards told me, patting me.“OK, fine. I'm sorry, Serene. I need you to give me a chance to discuss things.”"Please show Mr. Myers out; I am sure it is exhaustion causing all tha

The rascal I used to spoil with all the money I stole from Diego abandoned me for someone else. I can not believe he used my money 2 to move on with someone else, knowing that I divorced my husband for him. I will just wait until Diego arrives and then use my emotional games to get to his heart. There is no way he will reject me after all those years I spent in jail. I know he will forgive me, and I will do my best to take every asset I can get my hands on; Diego Myers is someone I have studied to the fullest extent. As for George, he will be the first person I fire if Diego gives me another chance; how dare he tell me Serene is with Diego?I have been living in this mansion for the past three months, and Diego has yet to return. I am sure he went to make money for Serene. I am sure Serene is either back in her village or living under a shark in London. Diego Mye

I am only grateful security did not arrive and chase us out like dogs since the humiliation would have been horrible. I took a seat on the sofa sinking deep into my thoughts, since I still had no notion who the black-suited man's master was.But Serene's fooling with him provided us the opportunity to receive free money simply for agreeing to work with him.

If he turns on us, I will be destroyed, and the lives of so many others will be jeopardized.“Hey, are you OK?" Grace inquired, coming into my office with a glass of juice."Yes, I am all right, and thanks for the juice. I've not had this in a while." “Serene, you need to get serious. I'm not letting you treat my girls like that."“OK, madam, your wish is my command." "I will see you at supper," Grace remarked before walking away.I took another sip from my glass and continued browsing through my papers until Kyrell intervened. "What in the name of madness is wrong with you?" I inquired as he entered my office, dripping wet.“I…I am sorry that I could not wait, Serene," he said, holding up a file."What's that? I mean wait, is that my family's black file?" I inquired, recognizing it since I assumed it had been burned in th

    CHAPTER 217Nelly Sofia has been messaging Kyrell for over a week now, but he continues to blue-tick her messages. I knew asking her to abandon him would be a poor idea, so I considered meeting with George to see if he might help us get to Kyrell, but he appeared to despise Kyrell to the core, and I am still not sure why.I assumed George was a placid person, but he was not easily deceived. "I do not have time for your proposition, Nelly, and we are not meant to be seen together.". Please go before you make the incorrect impression.”What the heck? He's asking me to leave."George, calm down. I am not here to make trouble. My friend genuinely likes Kyrell, but he—"“Nelly, I know you are a crafty lady, but if your buddy understands what is best for her, tell her to stay away from Kyrell, OK," George replied, putting on his glasses and heading to his Jeep.I was ready to walk away, cursing the fact that I had not received anything from him when someone yelled my name.

I had not seen him in months, since the day I came for closure."You know what, I believe coming here was a bad idea; let us go back," I said to Neina, who helped me up and walked out of the visiting room.I felt I was ready to meet Diego and maybe talk to him, but that feeling vanished as soon as my sister's memory entered my thoughts. "It is okay, Serene; do not be so harsh on yourself; you will be OK," she comforted me as we got into the car."Madam, do you want me to drive home or continue with the schedule?" the chauffeur asked."Continue with the schedule; I need to check in on the progress of my Empire," I said.The automobile started, and I hurriedly covered my eyes with dark glasses so that no one would think I was sobbing. We got to the Empire and Rina was so excited to see us. She handed me the flowers and presents they had p

The door opened, and Miguel stepped in, his eyes wide open.“Woah, mommy, is all this for me?" he asked, running to the lion toy I got him."This is beautiful, it looks just like Mufusa,” he said, rubbing it's hair."I am pleased you like it; will you forgive Mama now?" I asked when he nodded before I hugged him."You did not have your breakfast today; let me go get it for you," he said, racing out, and I instantly had to warn, "Be careful, dear."“Did you just bribe my nephew?" Charlotte asked as she walked in."No, Ms. Charlotte Brights, I do not engage in unethical behavior," I said, and she just gave me a serious look, as I had not addressed her in that manner in a long time."Ms. Brights, please come to my office," the security operator called into the microphone, and I raced out.I went into his office and watched a live video of the drone ente

"Ms. Brights, the security operator, would want to show you something," a maid told me before I approached him.I came into the room without thinking about what may be going on and discovered that he was zooming in on what I recognized as a drone. “Wait, is that a drone?" I inquired, realizing the background was that of my mansion."Yes, ma'am, I believe someone is watching us; I have seen this thing in roughly 5 images," he remarked, showing them to me."That is horrible; do you have any clue which way it is heading?" I asked as we couldn't see the angle properly. “I think it's from the east." "I will contact an expert to come check on everything, so please keep your eyes on that screen," I added before walking away.Diablo has now begun employing drones on my residence, indicating the level of dan

I was convinced he had come with good news and could not wait to find out. I went to the study first, and Kyrell followed a few minutes later. “Uhmm is it OK if I join you?" Charlotte inquired while I glanced at Kyrell for permission."Yes, you are welcome," he answered, pulling out a chair for her.She stepped in and sat down before Kyrell began telling me what he would learn. I am not sure why everything he said seemed too bad to be true, but the fact that he was one of the most accurate individuals I knew compelled me to give in."So you're telling me right now that Diablo is not responsible for Andrew's death?" I asked as that sounded a little odd."Yes, I conducted an investigation and discovered that Andrew was murdered by someone other than Diablo.""Oh my gosh, does this imply we have two dangerous foes or what?

Sofia cursed, soaked from head to toe.“Sofia what happened to you?" Max asked."That bitch came after me, and none of you were there to even save me from her thrashing. Now my phone is broken."“Wait, who are we talking about here?" I asked."Trust me, I will make Serene's cousin pay for this."“Charlotte was here?" I responded."Yes, that bitch came for me because of the postings and beat the heck out of me; now my entire body is in pain. I can not even extend a friggin 'muscle," she lamented as she made her way upstairs, not wanting to answer our queries.Looking at how horrible she looked, I could tell Charlotte had given her a good beating because she is a bold person, but I was amazed she could make it as far as our house."If you ask me, I would say she deserved it," Sandra said with a s

I questioned her since she had been getting angry around him lately.“No, we weren't close, Serene. Come on, I barely knew him," she said."Okay, if you say so," I said, preparing to put a handful of popcorn into my mouth when someone grabbed my hand."This is not what you should be feeding Serene.” Grace remarked before adding, "I need those ladies strong and healthy," and I immediately returned the popcorn and took an apple from the bowl next to me."Pregnancy certainly leads folks to miss out on a lot," Charlotte joked as she ate the popcorn alone.“Oh really? Looks like it also causes people to miss out on going shopping," I said, and she instantly set down the popcorn and urged me to take her along."Please take me along; I need to replace my entire outfits," she begged, and I simply continu
