His Mistake, Her Revenge Chapter Fifteen
-- Alexander --I was foolish. I was stupid. I couldn't believe how I could have acted so rashly at the welcome party. Confronting her like that. The only chance I had to clear my wrongs and I used it to lash out at her instead, making things worse for myself. Now, she'd never forgive me. And I wouldn't even know if I'd be able to see her, again.I dragged my hand furiously down my face and hastily loosened my tie, expanding the knotted space around my neck while I felt like it was choking me. I felt restless. I stood up from my office chair and began to pace back and forth.Still feeling frustrated, I walked back to my desk and swept everything off the surface, angrily, from paper to files to documents and even the mug of coffee which had been brought for me earlier this morning. "Arghhh!!! Alex, you're so stupid!" I screamed, knocking everything off without a care and the mug fell to the ground, shattering in pieces. I ran my hand through my hair afterwards and pulled at it.I felt

-- Alexander --All over again, the same thing was happening to me. I stared down at her for as long as I could and it was like time itself had stopped. I could hear the sound of my heart beating loud without an ounce of control. I felt dazed just like I had felt at her welcome party. How the fact that she had been so close to me after pulling her to my chest had done wondrous things to my soul. She was the most beautiful creature I'd ever laid my eyes on.Just like the time of the party, I felt like she was feeling the same for me and I wondered if it were my imagination. It was like she stared back at me with just about the same amount of lust in her eyes. I couldn't tell if it were ridiculous to think so. But I felt the strong force to bring my head closer towards her and steal a kiss from her lips. Just to remember how she tasted like. I was dying to remember how her lips felt like against mine.Apart from that, I tried to use a little bit of logic while I shifted from thinking wi

-- Grizelda --The living room felt like the best place to work. I chose to settle into the deep cushions of the sofa, enjoying the soothing, quiet moment of my abode which wrapped around me like a blanket. I should've felt at peace but maybe half at it.A cup of tea which waited for me to take only my third sip, sat on the side table, probably feeling abandoned already. The brightest light came through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the sun casting it's golden hue on every object close by and lighting up the house as much as it could in the day. I had financial reports laid out before me, which I flicked through and tried to focus on. Trying not to be bothered by anything else.The reports were positive, the numbers were good, the projections solid but the constant thoughts that rained in my head wouldn't let me feel at ease.Clearly, my mind pictured on and on the awkward moment Alexander and I had shared yet again. How our eyes had locked for that one very brief moment, stirring up

-- Alexander --The gala was crowded and lively just as I expected it to be. My eyes scanned the room, searching for Grizelda. I finally found her. Thankfully, she was alone. I felt my best shot eagerly waiting for me to take it.From afar, I could easily tell the reason my heart refused to let go. Long before knowing about the wealth she had, there had always been something about her. Something rare. Something to fathom about.Currently, her dark hair hung up, exposing the delicious curve of her fair neck. The perfect elegant shape of her body was thrown into a deep red dress, the kind that commanded attention, the kind that would make any man swoon at a single glance. But it wasn’t just the dress. It was her. The way she carried herself now, like she cared about no one in particular. And why would she? She’d morphed into an unimaginable version of herself. She didn’t need anyone. Not even me.But I knew exactly what I was here for. I started pushing my way toward her and just as I g

-- Alexander --Her lips were soft and supple. Heavenly, just as I imagined them to be. I couldn't have helped it. I snaked my hands around her waist, pressing her tight against me, eager to do much more than that. Eager to sweep her off her feet, making sure that her legs were clutched around my waist while I'd unzip my pants and slide right into her middle. I didn't feel her kiss me back on her own accord, yet I continued while I felt myself losing control.In the end, she pushed her hand against my chest to slowly break the kiss. Her breathing was the opposite of steady as I'd taken most of her breath away and now I watched her try to regain it."Alexander." She whispered my name.I pinched my eyes closed, half expecting a slap to meet me across my face for the stupid action I just made. But nothing came and I opened my eyes. Her eyes were still fixed on me and tears were beginning to rain from them.I felt like I'd just fucked up and the force to regret my actions began to sink in

-- Grizelda --He walked away and it felt like he took my heart along with him. The tears didn't stop rolling down my cheeks and I bit my lip till I tasted blood. I felt a mix of anger and pain. Pain caused by an overwhelming feeling of sadness. I felt broken and unable to be fixed again.Was this how little he thought of me? Was this how he wanted to play things? There was no other reason for what he just fucking did! He was using me, toying with my feelings! I wrapped my arms tightly around each other as I felt the chill run through my skin. Vicky came right in time and before he was completely out of sight, they passed by each other, her eyebrows shooting up like she didn't know he was present at the gala all along."Was that animal just here alone with you?" She quickened her pace towards me and her eyes became wide as soon as they focused on my face. "Griz, are you okay?""No, Vicky." My voice broke out and my eyes brewed with more tears than I could ever control. "I think you'

-- Alexander --My grip on the steering wheel was tight. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't meet the bastard of a father who dared come into my home to ask for money just to keep him from spilling our secret and ruining the peaceful life we've maintained for so long.He'd reached out later on and told us to meet him at a local restaurant with which we were headed. I was fuming. My blood was hot and I felt my knuckles turning white."Baby-" Lucy tried to reach out to my arm from the passenger's seat and I shot her a glare before she could get anywhere near me."Don't you dare touch me!" I shouted and she flinched. "I saw the condom you used under the bed. So that's how he ended up in our house isn't it? You called him over then he decided to use the opportunity to threaten you? And why wouldn't he?! You're probably also giving him my money because apparently, he's struggling without a proper job to feed himself."I turned my eyes to the road but I wished I could rest them on her a little

-- Grizelda --For days, I sat in the space of my office, making phone calls and aggressively typing things on my PC while thinking about one thing the most. Alexander. He was going to pay for everything. For treating me like trash. They were all going to pay. Lucy, his mother, for all they did years ago. For letting me wallow in self pity. I couldn't afford to rest until I had my revenge. I couldn't afford to keep looking stupid. And that was what they thought I was.Stupid. Vulnerable. Weak.Which they were all going to regret for thinking I was all of that. I couldn't wait to show them what I was really capable of. I felt myself desperate to the point of breaking apart but I didn't care. I didn't sleep. When the first idea came to my head, I went ahead and went for it.I barely had time for Leo anymore but I knew the more I focused on this, the more I could be done with it and things would be normal again. No, things would be better.And of course, I didn't rest."Don't you think y

-- Alexander --I drove away in my car and they didn't hesitate to shut the gates behind me, the sharp clang of the metal gates symbolizing the superior power of the Williams Estate. And to think that years ago I always saw them as gods and never would have thought for once that one day I'd have the audacity to stand in front of their gates and plead to speak with their daughter.That was the kind of influence the Williams had in the entire country.But unfortunately, I'd once been married to that 'daughter' without knowing she was connected to the Williams family.I slammed my palm against the steering wheel, feeling the weight of my frustration pressed heavier on my chest.Damn you, Grizelda!I was trying my best to fix things, to prove that I was on her side in every way, yet I felt her shutting me out without any aid to it. Even audacity couldn't help me out.Her sliceful words repeated endlessly in my mind. "Then show it. Don't just fucking come and spell it out to my face."I ex

-- Grizelda --I watched Leo fall asleep on his bed while I was just almost done with reading his bedtime stories to him. His tiny body curled against the pillows, his golden hair shimmering in the glow of the nightlight and the peaceful rise and fall of his chest indicating how probably deep he was in the world of his dreams.Hopefully, it was a good dream.I brushed a stray strand from his forehead and kissed him there. My love for him only grew more everyday and the will to protect him and keep him safe grew stronger day by day as well.I remembered how my blood boiled with simmering rage during the interview earlier today.Alexander Kingston had promised me, given me his word while we stood face to face, agreeing that there would be no dragging over Leo, yet what if it was all a lie?In the blink of an eye a custody battle was placed on my table? All for what?! It was exactly what I'd wanted us to avoid, yet he brought upon a damn legal war over Leo!Jax had to be right! It would

-- Alexander --My jaw hung loose when I saw Grizelda live on the TV screen. She sat composed, but like a queen appearing with a deadly look on her face like she had come to announce the presuction of those that had dared to go against her.“I have been a single mother for years, caring and nurturing my son till this very stage." She said smoothly, her voice calm yet laced with fire and authority. "Therefore, I believe if there should be anyone willing to claim him from under my care, they should be ready to prove more capable of catering for him better than I have. But that isn't the case now, is it?” She continued.“All I sense is family legacy being placed as a priority, as well as a struggle for control being brought to my face. The people I've seen are people who refuse to accept that I have built my own life, independent of them, and I refuse to be bullied. I refuse to allow my son to be used as a pawn in their game.” Her words sounded final.I clenched my fists. This had to be

-- Grizelda --Back at my parent's mansion to spend some time with them while I also brought Leo along, I settled in front of the television in the living room as I poured myself a drink. A breaking news alert caught my attention and shock had me in its hold as I saw Margaret standing at a podium, her face calm and composed.“As a grandmother, it is well obvious that I would want what's best for my grandson. Not just because I love him with all my heart and want him by my side, but because I want to ensure he's raised in an environment that prioritizes his well-being,” she said, her voice steady. “It’s clear to me that certain environments can be bad for a child's growth and upbringing.” My grip on the glass tightened. She was making this public. She was declaring war.“If you will not turn that off, I'll turn it off myself.” My father came out of nowhere, breaking through my concentration and before I had time to object, he went ahead and disconnected the tv plug from the sockets.

-- Alexander --I leaned back in my leather chair, steering myself slowly to the left and slowly to the right, lost in the turmoil in my head. It felt like the wrong time to remember Grizelda's painful words to me at the hospital but I did and clearly."I've decided to give Jax a chance in my life..." She had said.The words were like tiny needles pricking against my skin.Jax Grey. He was finally successful in taking Grizelda from me.Apart from that, there was a lingering pain in my chest. I felt deeply broken inside because it felt like everyone was suddenly against me. I felt alone with no one to turn to.I stared once again at the crumpled drawing Leo had given me last time I picked Spencer up from school. I'd been the one to crumple it, squeezing it tightly in my hand while emotions welled up inside of me. It was a picture of a family, properly colored with crayons.No matter how many times I stared at the drawing, I felt the same amount of emotions brewing inside of me. It was

-- Grizelda --The front door being slammed shut echoed through the house. I soon heard Leo's footsteps followed by his lovely voice."Mommy!" he called out in a shrill voice.I stepped out of the kitchen to meet him. I dried my hands on a dish towel as I met him in the hallway. His face was red from the cold, his blond hair pointed in all directions and his bag almost slipped off one shoulder.The paper he held commanded my attention."Look!" he said excitedly as he stretched the paper toward me. "Something new I made at school today!"I collected the drawing from him. My breath got caught in my throat as I realized what he drew this time.It was a picture of himself, unmistakably and Alexander. It was drawn in vibrant crayon colors. Leo had drawn himself in his favorite red shirt as he held hands with a tall man who looked unmistakably like Alexander.The man had the same blond and hazel eyes. The title was written very boldly. Me and the man who looks like me!I forced a smile. "My

-- Alexander --The afternoon light poured into my office and radiated off the polished wood of my desk. The financial report I’d been working on untouched for the past hour on my computer screen stared back at me. My head was in another dimension. I kept thinking of my argument with my mother.Grizelda’s supposed betrayal with Jax Grey still played in my head.It was a story I believed to be true all those years ago. Lucy showed me the so called evidence of Grizelda's infidelity. She cried and consoled me, telling me I deserved better. I wasn’t in the right frame of mind to be logical then.But now? All I could think of was if there must be more to the stor I should know about.I leaned back in my chair as I stared at the ceiling deep in my thoughts. My head was completely filled with doubt. Could it really be that something did go on between Jax and Grizelda, or could those photos have been entirely fake, purposely made to look that way? Probably edited too.Those photos always felt

-- Grizelda --The custody fight hanged over me like a dark and unrelenting storm. Even in my leisure time, I was unable to relax because of the heaviness I felt when I thought about it. Margaret not only wanted to take away Leo from me but my identity. I didn’t know what else I was asides being a mother.I decided to bury myself in work but little good did that do. The numbers and quotations just blurred into one huge mess of gibberish before my eyes. I leaned back in my chair as I rubbed my temples. I needed to keep busy otherwise my mind would spiral into places I didn’t want it to go. I couldn’t afford to fall apart now.A soft knock on the door startled me.“Come in,” I called. I bent over the papers scattered on my table. I needed to appear or give the impression I was busy.Vicky stepped inside, a steaming cup of tea in her hands. She had always been proactive, sorting my needs before I even knew. I gave her a grateful look, my eyes twinkling with delight as it expressed the r

-- Alexander --"You have crossed a line." I said as my voice trembled with anger.My mother who stood in the centre of my office didn’t flinch at my tone, she didn’t even blink. She just stood there, arms folded with a rigid posture as the cold matriarch she has always been."Leo is my grandson," Her words were measured and deliberate. "He belongs in the Kingston family."Her words sent my mind reeling. I glared as I launched myself to my full height. "Leo stays with his mother," I snapped. "And you had no right to serve Grizelda custody papers without my blessing. What were you thinking?""I was thinking about Leo’s future. Your son's future." she said with an icy tone "The Kingston's name. The legacy you seem so fixated on ruining."I could barely restrain my anger as my hands were clenched into fists. "This has nothing to do with legacy. This is about Leo. He’s a child, not some object to be added to the Kingston's collection. No matter what the case may be."Her lips curled into
