Karen's POV

"Are you going to take a taxi or a bus?" He asked me as we reached the main road where Cars could drive freely.

"I don't think that should be your business." I answered rudely as I stopped a bus. I smiled at Mr Smith as I swipe my bus pass. 

"It's been long since I saw you." He said as I shuffled towards the back of the bus with Brody who just stared blankly at us. 

I smiled cheekily. "I just came back to Los Angeles yesterday, I'm sorry you haven't seen me for a long time." I replied as I took a seat in the back. Brody hesitated at first, he didn't want to stay far from me so he s

    Karen's POVI sat down on the floor weak and exhausted. The worst thing I ever wished for was to be stuck in a warehouse with Brody, my husband."What did you want to tell me outside before we got interrupted by a car honk?" He asked and my heart raced."It's no longer important.""Why?" He inquired."Forget it, I don't want to tell you."He scoffed. "That's unfair Miss, you can't just do that. It's not right for you to keep secrets from me."I ignored him and leaned on a small box. He chuckled softly and went back into Mr Albert's office. The last thing I wanted was to be stuck with him. I couldn't control myself around him even though I made him feel worthless.He had a strong effect on me and I couldn't deny my attraction to him.The warehouse had started to turn dark which indicated that it was evening already. Brody came out of the room and handed me a jacket. "You must be feeling cold." He said and I tugged the jacket on and smiled at him."

    Karen's POVI woke up and found myself on the bed. What was I doing back in bed? Yawning, I climbed off the bed. I remembered sleeping on Brody's shoulder but I didn't understand how I woke up and found myself on my bed.Walking into the bathroom, I undressed and stood under the shower. I didn't waste time in the shower as I quickly wore my dress after bathing. I walked out of the bathroom and yawned again. I almost screamed when I looked at the time. It was already 10 o'clock. Why was the house so silent?I quietly opened the door and walked out. My mom was attending to her customers and I smiled. "Momma," I called out and she ignored me walking into the kitchen.It was probably because she was busy attending to her customers. I followed her into the kitchen hoping to know why the house was silent. It suddenly felt like I was lonely again or maybe she was just angry because I couldn't tell Mr Albert to help her. "Good morning, mom,"She smiled at me and I frown

My eyes widened and I looked at her shocked.The realization dawned on me, Karen pretended to be Lisa and deceived me. How could she do this to me?Walking towards her, I picked up the wedding ring and looked at it.

I muttered with a frustrated sigh, my heart slowly tearing apart.She tried to hold me but I stepped back causing her to miss a step and almost falling. I wrapped my hands around her bare waist to prevent her from falling.Slowly, she raised her head and let out a tiny gasp. My eyes locked into the most beautiful pair of black eyes that I had ever seen.Standing close to her made me marvel at her beauty. I had never seen her this beautiful. She contin

    Karen's POVI watched in shock as the doctors and nurses took his lifeless body into the operating theater, my heart beating rapidly."How's he?" I asked a nurse who came out of the operating theater, she ignored him and entered the doctor's office. I couldn't hear them but it appeared urgent, the doctor quickly came out of his office with her and they both ran into the operating theater and closed the door.It was really confusing because I couldn't see anything there. The door was covered inside with a curtain. "Karen," I heard a familiar voice and I turned to see my mom in tears. Running towards her, I hugged her and began crying. It was all my fault, none of this would have happened if I didn't deceive Brody."Mom, I'm a bad person." I murmured amidst tears.She kissed my forehead and looked at me. "No, you're not a bad person, everything would be alright soon." She assured me but I couldn't be consoled. Tears flowed down my eyes freely as the image hit me,

    Karen's POVI walked out of the doctor's office as tears rolled down my cheeks freely. Mom ran towards me with a sympathetic look. "What did he say?" She asked and I felt my lips become sealed. I couldn't even say a word, Brody had kidney failure and he never told me. "Brody was diagnosed with kidney failure."Her eyes widened and she looked at me shocked. I managed to sit down on the small couch in front of the operating theater. "Is that all the doctor said?" She asked.I coughed and cleared my throat. "He also told me that Brody needed another kidney and if I was....."She interrupted me with a frown. "You're not thinking of donating your kidney to him, are you?""Mom, I'll do anything for Brody.""Brody is a stranger." She muttered.I shook my head. "He is my husband.""Your contracted husband." She reminded me.Why was she talking like this? This was the time to encourage me and not discourage me. I definitely didn't need discouragement. "Mom, I

The doctor had me discharged from the hospital quickly so I could rest a little before traveling back to meet my family.My mind drifted to Helen, she had really suffered a lot and losing a baby was just not the best thing to experience right now. Even though she had this funny and annoying behavior, I loved her more than anyone. I didn't want anything bad to happen to her and her child because I know what I've been through."So we're leaving for Texas tomorrow?" Karen suddenly asked, jerking me back to reality.I gave her a shaky laugh. "Yeah, I can't wait to go back. I can't wait to see Helen, I don't know what she would be going through right now."Karen placed her head on my chest. "Everything would be alright, I'm sure about that.""Funny enough, I've got you

He asked her.Karen stole a glance at me before replying. "Absolutely wonderful. Last night was....." She paused and suddenly remembered she wasn't supposed to talk about what happened last night.

We don't want to raise dullards, do we?"She chuckled softly and slumped down on the sofa. "Of course not."I licked my lips and looked at her. "So what did you make?" I asked."You're always hungry."I smiled at her. "That's because I'm a father, I have twins who love me.""I'm also a mother of a handsome son and a beautiful daughter."

She muttered.I couldn't help but get excited at those words. "I love you more than anything in this world." I replied.

I told him and walked out of the house almost immediately.I wondered if Karen was comfortable in the small and dusty house. After a few minutes he came out of the house with a frown on his face. "Why did you leave?" He inquired."I just couldn't cope with the dust, the room's dirty and unkept. You don't stay here, do you?""Well, I did stay here," he said and my eyes widened. "Not for long, it was just for two days.""I can't even stay in that room for more than a minute. It just doesn't suit me." I replied.He cleared his throat. "Karen's not in the room." He told me.My heart raced rapidly. Where could she have gone to? "Have you checked everywhere?" I asked.He nodded and sat on the floor.

    Karen's POVI felt dizzy and sat on the floor. I didn't want to fall sick but I couldn't help it. My eyes itched me and I felt like vomiting every second. This was totally the worst day of my life. I stood up again and gently opened the door.Stepping out of the small house, I walked towards a small cafe and occupied a restaurant. The waitress came to meet me with a smile on her face. "What would you like to eat, ma'am?" She asked, dropping the menu on the table.I looked at her with a frustrated sigh. Couldn't she give me anything to eat? I was really hungry and I needed something to eat quickly. "Anything would do." I muttered.Her eyes widened, confused. "Okay, you should try our salad." She said."Alright, bring it." I replied and watched her leave after taking the menu from the table.I placed my head on the table quietly and patiently waiting for the meal.Brody's POVI watched the men handcuff my father and the tears came out freely, I almost fainted d

Karen was not by my side and it made me really sad.I was very sure that she would never betray me and run away with my car. She would never do that to me because she loved me. She would never leave me.I felt a slight headache as I tried to assure myself. Walking into the shower, I had a quick bath and wore a plain shirt with a jeans trouser. My mind seemed to drift back to her and I realized that I had barely slept for hours.The door opened and Thomas walked in, I heaved a sigh of relief as I saw him. "Where were you last night?" I inquired with a smile. I didn't want him to feel sad about what has been going on.He winked at me and sat on my bed. "I was really busy, I'm sorry I couldn't come home early."I nodded. "Yeah, I totally understand."He rolled his eyeballs and slanted me a look. "Where's your wife?" He suddenly asked and my

He apologized with a sorrowful voice."It's actually not your fault, I'm sure everything would be alright.""This is actually frustrating. I really love my husband and I don't think I can leave him. And Brody's father just wants to get rid of me quickly." I replied in frustration.I was getting tired of everything. I just wanted to be with my husband, I wanted to be in his arms but I was just not lucky. Why was this happening to me?"I'm not going to do anything that would make your relationship with Brody end." He suddenly said, jerking me back from my thoughts.I looked at him with a frustrated sigh. There was no possible thing he could do than to keep me in this room.

    Karen's POVHe held me gently and looked into my eyes. "We need to leave now," he whispered. My heart raced rapidly as I stared back at him."What about Brody?"He shrugged and sat on the sofa. "Brody does not need to know about us leaving, he won't find anyone except his parents at home when he returns." He answered with a smirk on his face.My gaze returned to the TV and I avoided him. "I'm not sure if I'm ready to leave my husband." I told him.He scratched his cheeks and tried to convince me. "We can discuss things later but let's leave this house first."I was getting scared already, his voice sounded deep and scary. "But why?" I asked."We'll discuss things later." He reminded me of his words and I nodded."Okay, I'll climb upstairs and take my clothes, I'll...."He interrupted angrily. "You don't have to take your clothes, I'll buy you new ones, I just want to take you to a safe house." He offered.I quickly followed him outside and e

    Brody's POVAlex walked into my office holding two papers on his hands. It was obvious he had seen my resignation letter. "What's the meaning of all these?" He asked and threw the letter on the floor."What does it look like I'm doing? I'm definitely handing my position to you." I answered trying to fake a smile which was not worth it."I won't accept this, it's not acceptable. You can't just possibly leave this organization, this is your father's company...."I cut in. "Exactly, it's my father's company and not mine, I want to achieve a lot without anyone's help. I don't want to be ridiculed in future.""No one's going to make fun of you, it's only right that you become the CEO of this organization after you've managed it for a long period of time."A slight chuckle escaped my lips. "I didn't manage this company in a satisfactory way, I hardly came to work." I replied."What are you going to do after you leave?" He inquired."Music, I want to be a musi

"Thanks for the meal you prepared for me, I loved it."His face broke out in a grin. "You really don't have to thank me, you deserve it.""Huh, can we talk about something?"He nodded and shifted a little close to me. "What's wrong?" He asked with a soft and cool voice.I shrugged and hesitated to tell him at first but I continued after a short period of silence. "Won't you make your dad happy if you remain the CEO of his organization?" I finally asked, hoping to convince him to stay as the CEO even though I wanted him to continue his dream.He was baffled by my question. "I don't think I want to remain as CEO of his company, my dad's just being selfish.""But it's best if you listen to your dad, he probably knows the reason for saying you can't be a musician
