Kiara povNow my heart was racing inside of my chest like a drum when I noticed that he was the one holding on to me and he had been doing so for the past several minutes. I tried to jump away from him but he held me even tighter without hurting me. It felt like having a weighted blanket over my body. It was quite relaxing especially when thunder and lightning had been rolling out mercilessly from my window and I thought I was going to lose my mind at some point.I didn't want to seem ungrateful so with a flushed face I was left with no other choice than to thank him for going out of his way like that. He asked me if I was alright and I nodded, then after scanning me for a long contemplative moment he finally gradually let go of me as he was doing so he asked me if I was scared of thunder even though I was embarrassed I admitted that I was not only a scared of thunder but also lightning as well ever since I was a child both easily made me shiver from the crown of my head to the tip
Kiara povI knew that I should have not gone past her door but now she had already supported me from the small crack calling out my name and I had to respond to her going back into the room she looked at me filled with despise and hatred against me it was the way every other person looked at me in this place other than Bryant and sometimes it made me question the kind of person I was if I deserved for them to look at me like this. "Are you finally satisfied now?" She asked me and the only thing I could do was look down at the ground unable to meet her gaze that was so intense and filled with so furry I was sure that it was going to burn me without any problem at all everything that happened that went wrong in her life I am sure that she blamed me for it I had never been in any position that gave me the power to make her grandson my mates and yet every time she looks down on me as if I had somehow pulled on kind of invisible strings to make it possible even though I did nothing of t
Kiara povNow I took my last miserly article of clothing and then I stuffed it in the bag I placed on my bed behind me was Bryant's grandmother eying me down like a hawk. I don't think that even the airport security was going to be as harsh as her. "What is it that you just put in there?!" She demanded to know and then I brought out my underwear bag and opened it, she looked at it with utter disgust and kept that face even as I kept it back. "You can't blame me for being cautious…" she said her voice less sharp but I would be a fool if I could not tell that she was mocking me right now and because of that I didn't smile along with anything she said and I just kept my face low and away from her look of disdain that she had constantly painted on her face whenever she saw me I can't think that there was ever a moment when this woman genuinely smiled at me it was either a twisted smile that was filled with hidden disgust and anger or something just as messed up but never a genuine one
Bryant pov "What do you mean that you also forgot about a meeting that was supposed to hold later today?" I was looking at my secretary with a shocked expression written all over my face I couldn't understand why she would be doing her work effectively at times and then all of a sudden she would just choose to make such a ridiculous mistake that didn't seem to make any sense at all my finger stopped actually against my glass table as I carried my eyes over to her again. "So you're telling me that I was supposed to have a meeting with the board of directors 2 hours ago and you forgot about it?" I have repeated this question over three times now and this was making it the fourth but I didn't think that I was overreacting in the slightest she had a million and one things to remind her and she was the only one that could remind me about things like this yes she had forgotten about such an important thing the board of directors just like myself were all busy people and in order to arra
Bryant pov Now by the time I finally reached my grandmother, my blood was boiling so much and she was surprised to see that I had arrived earlier from the office than I normally would. She was also surprised to see how upset I looked.She was about to ask me what was probably wrong with me that made me look like this but I immediately ask her what she had done to my personal maid she seems to be plaza canceled by this and then she told me that she has not eaten anything at all but then I told her to put down all of this act since I already knew what she was doing and I already heard from my secretary the truth so she might as well as tell me the rest of it and where exactly she had taken Kiara.She was hesitant at first to do anything but then out of the blue when she finally saw that I was getting annoyed by the second she finally admitted that she had paid her a lot of money to leave me alone stating that I could not allow myself to gain feelings for a maid.I frankly told her that
Kiara pov My heart sank down to the ground, a sharp voice shot into my ears informing me that my flight was about to take off and my heart was carried out by the news but it was not with excitement but rather with sadness building up inside it as I stood up on my shaky feet and pulled a stray strand of my hair behind my ear then I gulped a generous amount of air before I took my first step forward. My things had already been checked in and after some careful scrutinizing so was my ticket I couldn't believe that Bryant's grandmother had gone this far just to get rid of me I shook my head and run my fingers through my hair with a heavy gasp, of course, I am supposed to believe this she despises me so much and the few times that I came across her the look of spite in her eyes should have told me that she would eventually do something like this in the long run. As I was buried in my own thoughts but I was suddenly broken out of them by this voice that came from a woman that was in front
Kiara's povThe shock that totally painted the older female's face some moments ago was nothing compared to what her facial structure was trying to represent her emotions. Her eyebrows had gotten so high that I thought they were going to move right over her forehead and her jaw was now wide open that she couldn't even close it.She was not as shaken as she had tried to be in the other locations and she quickly turned over to the guards that were standing at the door demanding that they hold me and kick me out of the hospital."Throw her out." She ordered as if I were a piece of trash.I saw the two bulky individuals coming towards me instantly I felt my heart pounding inside of my chest and a voice in the back of my head telling me to run away as far as I could because how was I supposed to get past that wall of curiosity and blind action without getting pummeled into a pancake.I scraped one feedback taking a step behind and then another and I was about to turn around and just dash o
Kiara povI couldn't imagine the amount of dread that immediately flooded through every single part of my body when I noticed that his eyes were open and his hand was stretched towards me the guards' men that were attacking me were longer focused on me and I was able to rush towards him again the moment I was close enough he held me and everyone was surprised to see that. His former fiancee was about to launch towards me again but then he suddenly began to struggle below his mask and the doctor told her to stop immediately Anna actually stopped trying to murder me he calmed down.His eyes were on the 12 works as he was clinging on to me and he was trying to say something through the oxygen mask I couldn't hear him but at this moment I was not too bothered about what he was saying I was just so happy that he had woken up and he recognized me I had heard about people losing their memory after engaging in such horrible accident that causes damage in the head that had happened to them and
Kiara's pov "Doctor please can you save him?" The doctor looked at me with pity saying that he was going to do everything he could but it wasn't looking very good for my father as he turned around and dashed into the ICU unit before I could settle into the waiting room Bryant and my mother quickly arrived to the scene and by that time he is really running down my face. I had no idea that man would ever be able to take a bullet for me. I thought he wouldn't even care if I died so listening to the advice that he gave me didn't seem to make any sense. Tears were coming down heavily even as Bryant wrapped his hands around me and my mother kept pleading to me what happened. So through my tears, I was able to narrate everything to my mother and the father of my children and I watched as their faces gradually became pale then my mother came over to me touching my cheek. "Are you saying that man really took a bullet for you?" My mother asked me and honestly, I wasn't surprised that she w
Kiara's povI looked at my phone again as it started ringing and vibrating on top of my desk it was from an unknown number or technically the number was not unknown because I knew it was coming from my wretched father that was if I could even call that my father anymore after all the years that he had abandoned me and my mother his daughter that he flew away he just walked back into our life as if nothing happened as if leaving us to struggle for so many years is nothing. As if that was something that we could just easily sweep under the carpet and forget about.I remember the first time I mistakenly picked up an unknown number thinking that it was probably related to business since that was not completely coming and I couldn't believe it when I heard his voice from the other side of the line telling me that he had run into my mother sometime ago and after doing some digging here he was able to get my phone number I didn't allow him to say anything else before I quickly cut off the c
Mr. Horris povIn the years that I have been married to my wife, I knew that she was capable of a lot of things and many of them were not exactly something that was supposed to be spoken outside to other people, however, I used to believe that she had limits.But after what I just discovered I found out that she definitely didn't when I tried to donate blood for Anna I was surprised when the doctor called me over to his office and told me that I was not a match for my daughter and that they would have to personally look for another donor this immediately made my suspicious and my instincts did not allow me to forget it so while she was at the hospital bed I asked the doctors to do a DNA test for me and Anna and the result was what I had in front of my wife right now the wife that had lied to me for several years and made me think that a child that wasn't my own was mine all this time.I had raised her with all the love that I had with all the love that I never gave to my true daughter
Harris povI was completely overtaken by shock when I heard you that my beloved daughter was in the hospital back and immediately I called out for her father who was in the other room rushing to him with tears running down my face he was focused on a TV and it took him a while to finally look at me and he saw the tears running down my face then he hardly told me that I could buy what I wanted to if I let him the rest of his program I told him that it had nothing to do with a purchase.I told him that our only daughter is at the hospital right now and immediately he began about asking me what happened I told him that I had got a call from somebody who claimed to be a friend of our daughter saying that he had found her in her hotel room bleeding really badly and she had been rushed to the hospital I showed him the address on the hospital with a map app that I had and told him that we have to leave as soon as possible."Who could have possibly done such a thing to our daughter let's go!"
Oscar's pov"I'm guessing that you were not expecting to see me,"After waiting five Long years I had finally seen her again and my heart was racing from the moment I got news that she was in the pack once more. It must have been destiny saying that we were meant to be together even though from the horrified look on her face.I was guessing that she didn't know that I was supposed to be in her life and she should have shown more excitement after seeing me for over 5 years I had been following her in the shadows all this time but now that she was finally alone in a restaurant that was far enough from the company that I wasn't expecting Bryant to be popping up anytime soon I wanted to meet up with her and I sat across her on the table that she has chosen"Oscar, whatever you have to say to me I am not interested in hearing it after everything you have done. It is just best that you keep your distance away from me."She spoke in such a bad manner as if she was speaking to an enemy but I
Anna's povThey were having another candle-lit dinner tonight and I watched them. A couple of tables were going with the glass of Champagne shaking in my hand almost to the point of tumbling down and falling to the floor but somehow I managed to keep the balance before dropping it back on the table feeling like my head was about to explode and my heart was about to follow it a moment later.How did things end up this way? 3 days ago I was expecting to be married and spending the rest of my life with a man who was now having a romantic dinner with another woman. How could he do this to me?Just like I expected my friends were calling me and asking questions, and many of them who were not actually my friends had taken this as an opportunity to laugh at me. I knew that many of them were talking to me behind my back.I thought that I was going to lose my mind at any time,What gave them the right to be so happy after they had taken any chance of happiness away from me? What gave them the
Kiara's pov "Have you heard the hottest gossip in town?"I was in the company's cafeteria having my lunch because I wasn't going to have another afternoon looking across the table and seeing Brian's face normally it was easy for me to control the hatred that I had been nursing for the past five years as diligently as I took care of my own children but yesterday I had even caught myself laughing with him that was completely uncalled for I thought that the walls I had built up around myself were high and mighty.I had convinced myself that my wall stood so high and mighty that there was nothing that could ever bring it down but as the days passed by I noticed that he would often come to my mind and it would summon the boiling anger that it normally did.Sometimes I would even find myself smiling at him and the thought of him but the moment reality slapped me sharply across the face I was able to gather myself again but that didn't mean that I wasn't slacking off.This meant that I was
Anna's pov I was waiting expectantly to hear from Bryant's grandmother, and when she finally called me over to meet her in a coffee shop I was hoping to hear good news. "Anna you might have to give up on my grandson,"The mocha I was slowly sipping when she said this to me immediately the taste become bitter in my mouth. The next thing I did was to gradually drop them as gently as somebody dropping a bomb."What do you mean by that? How can I possibly give up on him? Our wedding is just 4 days away now. I can't possibly think of giving up. Everything is already prepared. I have invited all of my influential friends to come. Do you know how humiliating it's going to be to tell them that the wedding is not going to hold?"Even as I was saying all of this to her all she just did was to stretch her back and shrug helplessly she should be able to do more than this was it because she was becoming too old it was hard I was relying on her to set his head straight not for her to come and wa
Kiara's pov In my life I was used to the struggles that came about me at this point it felt like a normality. Having my triplets I thought that life was finally coming to a meaningful point.I thought that I finally came to a balance that made sense but I was wrong about it. I had only imagined that everything was going right and all of a sudden that balance and falling apart into a million pieces without me realizing it. How could I be staying under the same roof as the man that broke my heart 5 years ago? How could I be allowing him to speak to my children freely? These questions ran through my mind without answers and I thirsted for it.I came down after another stressful work day not knowing what was waiting for me at the parking lot what I did not expect was that the tire of my car would be shredded and all the air let out of it now I was stranded in this place because I hadn't brought any cash that will be enough to take me back to that place."Are you having issues?" He popped
