I understood where Leon was coming from but he put me off when he said no like I was asking for his permission to leave the house. He had no right to control my movement, I could go anywhere I wanted to if I wanted to.

“I would be back,” I said walking down the stairs to leave. Both he and Nick were sitting where I had left them when I went to my room to get dressed, I avoided eye contact with him and just kept walking. I could feel his burning gaze at the back of my neck but that didn't stop me.

“I would come with you then,” he said making me halt in my steps

“What?” I swiveled my gaze to meet his

“If you are going to go fine but I'm coming with you,” he said sounding serious as hell

“You don't have to I am fine,” I said

If he came along with me Jennifer wouldn't say what she wanted to say to me that was why I was against it.

“It is not about you being fine, you just can't go there alone,” he said

“Let me go with her instead,” Nick said

“Why are both of you treating me like a child”

    I wasn’t quite surprised that she knew of her son’s ordeal she probably even backed him up every step of the way but I still didn’t understand why. What exactly did they want from Leon? Why were they threatened by him? “What do you want from us?” I asked breaking the silence“What is it that you want from Leon? he hasn’t done anything to either of you but for whatever reason you feel threatened by him,” I said not mincing my words“Do you know my problem with you?” I said adjusting on the couch“You talk too much and you always insert yourself in things that don’t concern you” she scoffed“This is family matter so stay out of it” she hissed“He is my husband so he is my family,” I said the word family sounded foreign as it came out of my mouth, I just wanted to make myself clear.She let off a long bitter laugh that didn't reach her eyes it was torturing to listen to it.“All of a sudden he is your husband?” she asked“I should have been able to tell that you would become a fucking

    “How did you know I was here?” Jennifer asked“I just did a little asking around, I'm really sorry” Amarie apologized They both took their seats without waiting to be offered one. Amarie's eyes landed on me and she stared at me from up to down like she was trying to size me up.“Won't you say hello?” She asked and I didn't say anything. They were in hot soup but she was busy worrying about whether I said hello or not.“Such a bitch” she whispered under her breath but it was audibly enough for me to catch it.They clearly didn't guess that I was the one behind their misery this time and by all means, I needed them to find out. I needed them to know it was me, to get that satisfaction by seeing their faces fall and their eyes filling up in anger.“Get straight to it” Jennifer plainly saidKayla looked at me, like she was expecting me to get up and leave but I didn't move a muscle. I sat still holding eye contact with her, I didn't blink.“I don't have all day,” Jennifer said“I-I-I-” K

    KAYLAI curled up on the floor, shaking, my body wrecked with deep sobs. My chest was tight, and I could barely breathe through my cries. My phone was still in my hand, the harsh comments flooding in every second, and all I could do was stare at them, my vision blurry with tears."Rot in hell, you disgusting bully!""You deserve everything that's happening to you!""Kayla Genrey is FINISHED!"The words cut through me like sharp blades. My life was over. Everything I had worked for, my reputation, my influence, and my future were all slipping away, and I couldn't do anything about it."I can't take this anymore," I whispered, my voice barely there. "I'd rather die than go through this humiliation,” I added I threw my phone across the room, watching as it hit the wall with a loud crack. I didn't care. I didn't care about anything anymore. My entire life was falling apart, and there was nothing I could do to stop it."Kayla, stop this madness!" Mom shouted, rushing toward me.I spun ar

    NAYAI left the store feeling on top of the world like I was floating. Although I left with a death threat that didn't take the smile away from my face, seeing Kayla off her high horse begging for help it was beautiful to watch her in misery. And her face when I told her, it kept replaying in my mind and it brought a big smile to my face. All thanks to Leon for making it happen.It was only the beginning. I wasn't going to stop anytime soon.“You look happy,” Nick said as I got into the car“What can I say? It wasn't so bad” I laughed“Wait. Why are you still here?” I asked“I was waiting for you” he answered “I spent hours in there, you shouldn't have,” I said“It is my job to look after you,” he said making me roll my eyes at him“And Leon would snap my head off if I returned without you” he laughed“He definitely would,” I said shaking my headI was sure that by the time we got home, he would still be mad at me and refuse to talk to me. Which I one hundred percent understood. But

    LEONIt was hard to get Naya to see where I was coming from she just took my words and turned them upside down making it seem like I was trying to control her movement. I even explained but she refused to listen, she more than anyone should understand why I was that way with her.I already knew what Jennifer wanted as she asked them to meet up. It couldn’t be anything more than wanting Naya to be loyal to them, I am sure something in her head made her think she would be able to do it herself. She was convinced that the only reason Naya rejected her was because she sent a third party, that was how Jennifer thinks she feels no one can or should ever say no to her and when it happens just like her son they can’t handle it.I wasn’t skeptical about what Naya's response would be, I have grown to trust her and know her. She wouldn’t bend to their feet. I was worried about her safety, the meeting could go left and something could happen, as predictable as they were they were also very danger

    NAYALeon refused to leave my side all day, he made the chef cook me food and watched me eat every bite. He kept asking if I was sure about not needing a doctor and I kept telling him no. I was fine, it was just almost like a glitch in my brain. I would be fine. But he still didn’t want to leave and I didn’t want him to leave either. I loved that he was around me.“Won’t you go to bed?” I asked “Not yet,” he said“Have you seen the time?” I asked, it was around past ten already“I would go after I put you to sleep,” he said“I’m not a child” I whined“For today you are” he laughedI couldn’t dare sleep wink because the fear from what happened was still there, I just felt like the nightmares would be too much to handle. I needed to take my night coffee so I needed him out of my room because he would understand immediately.“I need to take a shower,” I said getting down from the bed“I would still be right here,” he saidI took my towel and was about to take off my clothes when I sudde

    KAYLAI laid on my bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. My whole body felt heavy like I had been drained of every last bit of energy. The events of today played over and over in my head, and each time, the anger in my chest burned hotter.Naya.That bitch.She stood there and laughed in my face. She mocked me, watched me fall apart, and enjoyed every second of it. She wanted to see me suffer, and she got exactly what she wanted.I felt like screaming, throwing something, breaking everything in sight. But what was the point?Jennifer, who I thought would be my last ray of sunshine, I thought she would clean up this mess, had abandoned me. My so-called “friends” that surrounded me were nowhere to be found. Ryan tossed me away like I was trash, telling me I wasn’t his business. I was alone. Completely alone.Tears burned in my eyes, but I was tired of crying. I had already wasted too many tears on people who didn’t deserve it.I lost.For the first time in my life, I lost.I had built my

    NAYA I opened my eyes to see that I had fallen asleep, I felt light like I had just the best sleep of my life. I didn’t have any nightmares which was surprising. When I tried to move I noticed that Leon was asleep beside me with his arm wrapped around me which brought a smile to my face and I laid still not moving an inch so I wouldn’t disturb his sleep. I brought my hand to his face and straightened the crease line on his forehead, he looked tense in his sleep. He tightened his grip around me, mumbling something. He was probably having a nightmare. So I rubbed his arm slowly to calm him down. The mumbling stopped for a while then his eyes flew open looking me right in the eyes. “Are you okay?” I whispered and he just pulled me closer to him resting his head on my shoulder. I rubbed his back, I could tell something was wrong. “How long have you been up?” He asked tucking my hair behind my ear “Not long,” I said “Did I wake you up?” He asked “No, you didn’t, why do you

I had to make sure Naya was fine“We have been able to stabilize her, we can only hope that she wakes up,” he said slowly like he was scared of the words as they came out of his mouth“Don’t tell me that! I would pay any damn amount just make sure she is fine and she wakes up please” my voice cracked as tears filled my eyes, it was unbearable to keep watching her lay still like that“What is going on? What happened?” Nick rushed in looking between me and Naya“We will try our best you have my word,” the doctor said I crashed on the couch holding my head tightly trying to stop the banging that refused to stop“Why hasn’t this been covered up?” Nick

    LEONPain shot through my body the moment I opened my eyes. It was sharp and burning, but it didn’t matter. None of it mattered. The only thing that did was her.“Naya.”I managed to say her name and it came out in a whisper, barely audible but it was the only thing I could say. My vision was blurry, the hospital ceiling above me spinning, but I forced myself to move.I had to see her.With every bit of strength I had, I pushed myself up. A sharp stabbing pain shot through my ribs, and my arm screamed in pain, but I didn’t care. I ripped out the drip attached to my arm, ignoring the sting, I dragged my legs off the bed. The floor was cold against my bare feet, but I barely felt it.I needed to find her.My knees failed me the moment I tried to stand, but I gritted my teeth and held onto the wall tightly using it to balance myself. Step by step, I forced my body to move, ignoring the shouts of the nurses behind me. I staggered through the hallway, my mind drowning in the only thought t

    NAYALeon didn’t let me lift a finger. If I allowed him, he would even bathe me every morning. He didn’t let me out of his sight for a second, always hovering around me like I was going to disappear into thin air if he looked away. It was sweet, really, but sometimes, it was too much.I loved how much he cared, but I also needed my space. Every little thing, he wanted to do for me, pulling out chairs, opening doors, carrying things I could easily handle myself. If I so much as reached for a glass of water, he was already there, handing it to me before I could even touch it. I knew he was just being protective, but at times, it felt like I couldn’t even breathe without him watching over me.“Good morning darling, I brought breakfast” he smiled walking in with a tray“I’m not hungry” I whined putting the blanket over my head “Come on love you have to eat” he turned over the side of the bed tugging the blanket“I feel nauseous, and I think you are feeding me way too much” I whined“You

    JENNIFER I decided to invite all the board members for a meeting so I could convince them to vote for Ryan in the upcoming election. The last time I tried to reach out to them, they were stubborn and refused to meet with me. They claimed Ryan had to terminate the contract because the only other option left was Leon, and the idea of giving him the title was unacceptable.But after Leon revealed himself as the CEO of TechNova, things changed. I heard that some people were already rallying votes for him, and I had to shut it down before it got out of hand.Leon was smart and calculating, I would give him that. He had always been that way. Unlike others who underestimated him and mistook his quietness for weakness, I knew better. That was why I bought the idea of getting him married, to at least put a leash on him. But that plan failed miserably, and now we were stuck dealing with the consequences.Ryan, on the other hand, couldn’t get anything done. He had been like that his entire life

    NAYAI felt horrible, the moment I opened my eyes, I knew something was off. My body felt sluggish, my head was pounding, and there was this awful taste in my mouth that made me want to gag. I swallowed hard, trying to shake off the discomfort, but the second I moved, a sharp wave of nausea hit me so fast that I barely had time to scramble out of bed.I ran straight to the bathroom, dropping to my knees as my stomach twisted painfully. My body leaned forward into the toilet bowl, and before I knew it, I was throwing up everything I had in me. The retching didn’t stop. I held onto the toilet bowl, my fingers gripping the edges as my stomach continued to churn. My eyes felt heavy, and my throat burned.What the hell was this feeling?When I finally stopped, I slumped against the bathroom wall, completely drained and tired. My body felt weak and my bones heavy. I took in slow, shaky breaths, trying to steady myself. Maybe I ate something bad last night? That had to be it, I thought to my

    RYAN Everywhere I turned, Leon’s face was either plastered on a billboard or the main topic of conversation. It was impossible to escape him. His product launch was all anyone could talk about, and there were massive campaigns and promotions happening everywhere. I couldn’t stand it. The mere sight of his name or company logo made my blood boil. I made sure every single TechNova product was thrown out of my office and my house. I didn’t want to see anything that reminded me of that bastard. But no matter how much I tried to erase him from my space, he was still everywhere. What pissed me off the most was that I still didn’t understand how he managed to build something so big from the ground up without anyone noticing. How had he done it in complete silence? How had he kept it hidden for so long? It didn’t make sense. I refused to believe he built it on his own. I was convinced he must have acquired the company and was just pretending to own it. So, I had people look

He started with our vacation home then Kayla's car that he got her for her birthday but that wasn't enough still so I started to sell off some of my jewelry but all that was still not enough. The reporter kept calling and demanding for money or he would expose the news to the press but we have given and given that there was no more to give.Kayla locked herself in her room and refused to come out, I didn't know what that was about but she needed to go be with Ryan and get him to love her so we could ask for his help and tell him the truth rather than the truth being revealed through the press because that would be let all hell loose on us.“Kayla open the door” I knocked on her door“Let me fucking be Mom I am not going to meet Ryan” she hissed“This is for your good, everything can crash to the g

    NAYAI tried to brush away the conversation I had with Kayla but what I didn’t get was her saying she was supposed to get married to Leon originally, I didn’t understand what she meant by that, and that somehow found its way to remain in my mind as I waited for Leon to return so I could ask what it was about.I sat in the living room waiting for the door to open up. After about an hour the door opened and Leon walked in with a smile on his face but I didn’t return it. I needed answers. “Did you miss me?” He asked placing a peek on my forehead“Why the long face?” He asked pinching my cheeks playfully “Did anything happen today?” I asked“I was waiting to get to you so I could tell you what went down,” he said“What is it?” I asked“It is quite interesting but expected to be honest,” he said with a smile as he sat beside me“But first you tell me what’s up with you,” he said“Well I got a call from Kayla,” I said“Really?” He eyes widened“Let me guess she tried to threaten you?” He

Something was wrong, James never sounded like this unless it was serious.“I am right here,” I called out. “What is going on?” I askedAs soon as I stepped into the living room, I stared in confusion as he was pacing back and forth, his hands gripping his hair tightly. His breathing was uneven, and his face was twisted in frustration. My stomach clenched at the sight, I could immediately tell something was up and it was something big and bothersome.“Did something happen?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady, but my throat felt dry.He stopped pacing for a second, looked at me, then turned away again.“There is trouble,” he muttered, almost to himself.“What are you talking about?” I pressed, stepping closer.“There is trouble,” he repeated, his voic
