Adams;

I couldn't sleep. I stayed awake all night, perched down by the door outside the room while I listened to her sobs all through the night.

I felt terribly shitty and so fuckin sorry for what she was going through, and yea, I couldn't bring myself to go back into the room to console her, even as every inch of me craved to do so. I couldn't bring myself to go to bed either, as I knew I had a hand in messing things up this time again.

I had barged into Doctor Robinson's office the other day, demanding an explanation for his actions. I must say, I admired his guts for going against our agreement. I and absolutely no use for him, and I was not about to let him roam free after that taunt.

He still has a lot of explanations to do either ways as I was far from done with him.

I glanced at my watch for the umpteenth time, heaving a sigh, as worry clouded me. It was 9am, past breakfast time, and she hadn't eaten. I stood, leaning on the door for a moment before I raised my hand to

    Sienna;It's been two days since my mother's funeral. Two days since I decided I was done playing the guilty party. One thing was certain, I needed to find out exactly what and how I was being falsely accused of moving my mother to a different hospital. There was something strangely amiss about that."So what do you intend to do right now?" Sasha asked from the other line.I heaved a sigh, propping the phone closer to my ear, as I sat up the bed."The doctor is definitely hiding something, Sasha. We already came to that conclusion, but he found a way to thwart it." I sighed, recalling the very day Sasha and I had gone back to the hospital.We were so sure something was amiss on that very day, but somehow everything didn't make sense anymore."Yeah," She drawled, "I think I understand why Adams hid it from you. I mean, don't get me wrong. He owed you an explanation, but we both know how this news would have shattered you, especially when you just got her back.""True. And that is why I

    Intense feelings Sienna; "What are you doing, Adams?" I whispered, as I moved away from him, my eyes wide open in shock. This wasn't the first time he was kissing me, but my heart still beat rapidly whenever he does it. This time though, I found myself moving backwards, trying to get away from him. It was futile, as I was already leaning on the door, while Adams huge frame shadowed me. I swallowed, refraining from staring up at him, "I..I need to.." Suddenly, the words failed me as I didn't know what or how to speak anymore. My throat went dry and all i could focus on was the way he had kissed me just now, and of course his hand which still rested on my waist. "You need to stop doing that Adams." "Doing what?" He asked, feigning curiosity. "You know what." I all but snapped, gesturing between us, "You need to stop...coming in my personal space. And stop kissing me." His close proximity wasn't helping matters and I knew I was mostly speaking to myself cause he would nev

    Chapter 46: Lisa's POVMy fingers dialed at the number on the screen, one more time as I paced round the room in distress. What the fuck was going on? I definitely heard that bitch's voice from the other end of the line. What was she doing at the hospital? I shouldn't be paranoid, but I just couldn't help but think something was amiss, especially due to the fact that the stupid doctor is no longer picking up his cell phone.It rang for a few seconds, and I was already getting impatient, when I heard the phone ping."Hello?""Why the hell weren't you answering your damn phone!?" I yelled, obviously pissed."I'm really sorry, but I was trying to salvage the situation. I think ....""You think what?" I asked, as he suddenly paused, "Was she alone? Tell me she was alone, wasn't she?"With everything, I just hoped she hadn't been there with Adams. Did they found out something? Or did this mother fucker ratted himself out?"Yes, she was alone," He replied, "But i think they are onto me now

    Chapter 47: Adam's POVAunt Rosa's voice rang in my head like a warning bell. “An heir, Adam. It is time you stopped wasting time and focused on what's more important. Raising a family. She is your wife, not a stranger. For the love of all that's holy, make it happen. I am not getting younger, and you know what is at stake here.”I had barely got a word in before she ended the call, leaving me with the weight of her words. Make it happen.That was few days back. Today, I sat back in my chair, fingers gripping the armrests as Sienna's guarded face flashed in my mind. I couldn't get over the way she always keeps me at arm's length. No matter what I tried, it was like she had sworn herself off anything to do with me unless it was completely necessary. How was I even begin to convince her that I wanted her to bear my children? She wouldn't make this easy. Hell, she barely acknowledged me unless she was left with no choice but to.But I couldn't let that stop me. Sienna had to be the

    Sienna;I stepped out of the hospital, my heart pounding so loud I could feel it in my ears. Every shadow on the sidewalk seemed to shift, every passing car felt like it slowed enough to watch me. My grip on my bag tightened and I walked faster, hoping the suffocating paranoia would ease a little at least.“Hey, Sienna!”I flinched. My stomach twisted at the sound of my name. I turned, and to my relief, it was Kelvin. He jogged toward me, his face a mix of concern and urgency.I knew there was something more he wanted to say and if there was even a sliver of a chance to figure out the truth, I couldn't ignore. No way.The last time we met, I had confided in him regarding the footage as well as my concerns. Well, he claimed he had been wanting to check on me, ever since my mother's .... demise, and was lucky I had picked up his call on that Day.We spoke for a while, and has insisted to know what was eating me up.Confiding in him was like a breath of fresh air.

    Sienna;Anger surged within me, as I spoke bitterly. “He even had the guts to come with me to my mother's funeral, acting remorseful for her death when he was the one who pushed her to her grave.”“What a pretender.” Kelvin added, as he looked at me. His hands reached out for mine on the table and he held them there. The most comfort he could offer. Time ticked by, seconds blurred into minutes and hours, and before I knew it, I’d ordered the third cup of latté. My phone was dead by the time I realized how late it really was. Also, I was late for dinner with Adam and his “aunt”. Guilt gnawed at me but Kelvin kept talking. His words weaved a web around my thoughts.By the time he was done, I wasn't sure what to believe anymore. Kelvin leaned back in his chair, a faint smile tugging at his lips. “So you see, when I try to warn you about Adam, it's not from any personal indifference I have with him. I'd sensed his motive from the first moment I saw you both together.” I squeezed his f

    Adam's POVI sat in my office few minutes later, staring at the ceiling as Sienna's words clawed at my mind. They hit me like sucker punch that I couldn't shake off no matter how hard I tried.There was nothing else I could do, as it was obvious her view towards me hadn't changed.Her accusations. Her tone. But then...something didn't add up and I needed to know what it was. That's why I called a doctor friend I knew from way back. He owed me more than a few favors. “What's this about?” He asked when he answered the call. “I need the CCTV from the night Sienna came in,” I said, keeping my voice even, though my stomach churned. “Why?” “Just get it for me. I need to take a look at it.” There was slight hesitation in his voice before he said, “This could cost me, you know.”“I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.” I cut him off. “Fine.” He sighed. “Give me a few hours.”Those hours crawled. By the time he called me again, my nerves were stretched thin. “I've got the footage.” He a

    Lisa's POVI pulled up outside Kelvin's mansion, the engine tickling softly as I killed it. Letting out a deep breath, I grabbed my handbag. My palms were damp against the material but there was no time for nervousness. I needed his help and he didn't have a choice but to respond. Whether he liked it or not, we were tied together in this mess. Trouble was brewing in the distance and I couldn't let it get to me before I struck back just as hard. Few weeks ago, we were stuck at the hips, there for each other to accomplish a common goal. These days, I couldn't understand him any more. I know for a fact, more than anyone else how much he hated Adams, as would do anything to get him out of his way--to get what he wanted. And we were working together as it was quite easy for us to accomplish it together than singlehandedly.The door swung open as my fist poised up to knock. Kelvin stood there, his face swollen and a nasty bruise darkening his cheekbone. My brow furrowed as I stepped insi

    KELVIN;To say that I was fucking thrilled would be an underrated understatement. I sat in my office, my legs up above my desk, as I watched the News.A sly smile spread across my lips as the thought of how smoothly the plan had gone. Quite out of initial expectations, but this was a discovery I, for one was stunned to hear."You should wipe that smirk off your face. If I hadn't come up with the idea of cloning his office, we wouldn't have gotten here."Instantly recalling that I wasn't alone In the office, I turned to stare at Lisa, where she lounged lazily on the sofa with a glass of wine in her hands."I am quite curious, too," I mused, my eyes narrowed, "You seem to be really ecstatic about this. I thought you are in love with him, or something, and wouldn't want to see him sad?"Lisa shot me a glance, and scoffed, "Of course I care about him. That does not mean I am stupid, you know?""How so?" I asked, as I picked up my glass of wine and chugged it's contents down.She was lying

And I definitely wasn't expecting her to find me in the shower as well.My fists clenched as I stormed towards her in the bathroom, and when I saw how she recoiled, a new wave of anger surged through me. My eyes trailed down to the little wet patch on her blouse, and filled with an intense rage I didn't see coming, my fists reached out and ripped it off.Her startled gasp was everything. "I asked you to get out, didn't I? I clearly said I didn't want to see your face ever again, but you are just so stubborn, aren't you?"Her eyes were wide, and her hands convered her breasts, as she stared at her in shock.Suddenly, there was a bang on the door, which made me pause momentarily as I tilted my head to the side.I stared back at her, and then I grabbed a towel on the rack behind me and stepped out.*****My brows furrowed, when Agatha Informed me, yet again that Henry was in the living room waiting for me.

    Adams;Few hours later, I was sat on an empty sofa, with a wide grin on my face. Sienna had left earlier; her friend, Sasha had called and as much as I had wanted to drive her, she had insisted on going alone.I didn't want to push it, especially not after what had just happened. For the first time since we got married, this was the closest we have gotten to a mere conversation.She might not have forgiven me now, but I knew we are making progress, and she was willing to listen to me. And for that, I was utterly grateful.A cough sounded behind me, pulling me out of my thoughts. I snapped my head up, only to find Henry standing in front of me with a wide grin on his face."I can see someone is in a good mood." He chuckled."You can say that again. How long have you been standing there?" I asked, as I stood, going over my desk to grab my keys."Where are you going?" Henry asked with a raised brow."What do you mean...I am heading home of course." I said, unsure on why he was asking tha

    SASHA;My fingers tapped on my cell phone screen as I paced along my living room. What the hell is going on? I wondered.Sienna was supposed to be here any moment. She had called quite earlier, a few hours to be precise, that she would be on her way now and was saying some stuff that just didn't make any sense.For days she has been acting a bit strange, and all my attempts to coax her into telling me what was wrong proved futile.Her instructions and pleas to keep the kids locked up in the house were the only thing stopping me from making my way to where she lived with that mother fucker.I could feel something was definitely off, especially with the accident that happened a few days ago, just outside the house.Releasing a sigh, I collected myself as I watched Liam who sat on a sofa, quietly watching an animation I had set up for them. Nick was nowhere in sight, but judging from the noises coming from their bedroom, I could tell he was having a great time.Sienna's words this mornin

    SIENNA;" What did you just say?" I asked, my temper rising.A heavy feeling rested on me almost immediately, and the stupid smirk on her face wasn't helping matters.Lisa was watching me, the corner of her lips becoming wider by the second.She was enjoying this." I asked you a question!" I stormed towards her, demanding to have an answer.My fingers clenched by my side, but then she chuckled darkly." What? Do you want to hit me? Go ahead, Sienna. I always knew you had a fire in you. I knew you had a bitchy side as well, why don't you go ahead and unleash it right now and stop hiding under the facade of an innocent girl."Her words were sickly sweet but filled with an icy determination. She wanted me to act. She was riling me up, no doubt.I took deep breaths, trying to control myself and my thoughts.What were the possibilities that she knew about my mother and her health condition?Has she been stalking me?Or was there something I was missing?A look of realization crossed my fe

    SIENNA'S POV;I was a mess by the time she was done speaking“ What do you want to do now?” She asked, reaching out to hold my hands.“ I need to leave,” I said, wiping the tears off my cheeks.She let out a breath, “ That is why you signed the papers.” “ Yes,” I nodded.“ I still don't get it though….how did he agree to this? He signed it right? Why? What was….the reason he held on to?”“ The news, Sasha. The same.... one you sent to me this morning. He never released that. He never told anyone about it. And now he thinks I did it.”"So....who did?" She asked, with a curious tone."I have no idea. I'm actually pissed that he would think so low of me. Why would I do that? What on earth do I have to gain from it?"Sasha rubbed my shoulders, "Don't let it bother you, Si. You have a lot to focus on right now."I shrugged as I stared out the living room, worried a bit that I hadn't heard the twin's voice for a while.“I'm sorry that this is such short notice, but I really need to leave t

    Sienna; Standing in front of Lisa, I almost lost my bearings at the sight of the person now approaching us. I needed to leave, as I was unable to understand what it was he was here for. How he had gotten a hold of this location as well, seemed to bug me a whole lot. " Oh hello, Mrs Adams.... Fancy meeting you here," the familiar voice of Henry, I supposed was his name, came through as he walked forward. Something seemed off though, asides the fact that i was rooted at the spot, and couldn't move an inch, his eyes roamed about. " What do you think you are doing here!?" I rolled my eyes, almost forgetting that Lisa was here as well. Her voice cut through the slight tension in the air, while she glared daggers at him. I wasn't interested in the least why she had a murderous look in her gaze, but just as I tried to make sense of why he was here, I heard the sound of a car door. Sasha's. " Hey! I see you have some nerves stepping foot in my territory, don't you?" s

    Adams; I stood, frozen in shock at the scene in front of me. I must have uttered her name because Sienna's head snapped towards me almost immediately. I saw the tears in her eyes. I saw the detached, miserable look in her gaze, as she stood facing Doctor Robinson, and at that very moment, I didn't know how to react. She found out? No, she has found out. A feeling of dread settled in me as I took a step towards her. The moment our eyes met, I could have sworn she looked utterly relieved, but just as quickly as it came, her eyes hardened immediately. " What are you doing here?" She snapped, her tone hard but steady. My mouth opened to say a word, but no words came out of it. I blinked rapidly, taking in the scene. Trying to understand what was going on. Doctor Robinson, who stood by her side, had his gaze on the floor the whole time, and I felt my blood boil. The foolish mother fucker must have informed her or let it slip in a way. " Mr. Adams...." Doctor Robinson began to s
