Mommy, I've found daddy. CHAPTER 264
ELLA'S POV I was ready for what was about to come.I knew where this would lead me and I wasn't scared to strut in its path. The smell of lavender reeked into my nostrils as I sniffled softly, my chest heaving. I clutch my hands to my sides as my fingers fisted the sides of my dress for comfort but I received none.The fabric of my dress braced the back of my palm. At first, my grip was uptight but with time, my palm soon became greasy with perspiration. I began to lose my grip over the loose fabric of my dress.I tried to hold on. To have it stay longer but before I knew it, the fabric faded I could still feel the nerving sensation the edge of her dagger sent through me. It lashed through my insides, waves sliding down my spine as I steeled myself for what was about to come. I knew it was already going to be like this someday.My eyes were closed but I could feel the flaming warmth of her breaths. It hit me, hot and blazing. The warmth saddled away all the hope I had left.I waite

XAVIER'S POV When it was time to cast the votes, I watched the shareholders all turn towards one direction. His direction. They all headed towards the board and slowly, I watched them pace towards the box for Lucas. He sat at the end of the room, his eyes glistening with contempt as Madame Browne's hands snaked around his shoulders.Her gaze loomed over my figure. I felt my heart race in my chest as the first shareholder to be called out, voted for Lucas. The voter in question walked back to his seat with his head lowered in shame. Disappointment flashed in my eyes as rage seared into my veins but I held myself back.Closing my eyes, I whispered to no one but myself, “We can do this Xavier.” I tried to believe my own words but the question that lingered in my chest was could I really do it? Madame Browne and Lucas seemed to have sealed the lips of most of the shareholders. It was obvious they had bribed some of them.I could tell.The pale look etched into the face of the others gav

XAVIER'S POV My heart raced in my chest as heavy gasps of air rippled through my lips. Nothing in God's green earth could have warned me of what was about to come. I clenched my fists tightly and sighed as the announcer’s gaze raked over my features. As I felt the scrutiny of his gaze brush over my features, I raised my head and stared back at him.The announcer's eyes twitched as I met his gaze. Something in his eyes warned me. I could read his emotions like pages of a book. His eyes glistened with remorse and as I took note of the glints in his eyes, I noticed something. It was dark and shaky. A glint. Before I could decipher what it really was, his eyes wavered off my figure and darted in the direction behind me.My head dropped as fatigue licked at my bones. I tried to hold it in, to ignore it but it glared right back at me. I already knew my fate. It was obvious he had been bribed or even threatened by Madame Browne and Lucas.It was already crystal clear now.In this game, I wa

XAVIER'S POV “Security!” A loud beam tore through the fog of tension in the room as I paused in my tracks. My lips pulled into a dark grin and my eyes darkened as I shot a glance at my assistant, Alex, who stood close to the screen, fidgeting like a winter leaf. “Have you fixed it?” I asked, my voice calm and steady as a lump of adrenaline formed in my chest. Taking in a slow whiff of air, I sigh and rolled my eyes as rage pooled into my vein.My clenched fists tightened as I maintained my stance, arms tucked around each other. Staring back at his lean figure, I waited patiently, holding onto an imaginary string of restraint as I felt my patience wear off.There wasn't much time left. I had to get this done with.“You know what? Pass it over!” I lashed out in a rising tone that had him flinch fearfully as he stretched his hands and passed the phone over to me. I received it sharply with my fingers wrapping around the structure of my phone as I heard the sound of boots stomping aga

XAVIER'S POV As I jammed my eyes close, I heard the loud barking sound of the gun as a bullet launched in my direction. My heart palpitated in my chest as I heaved out a heavy sigh and edged away from the spot before it could get anywhere near me.If I was going to win this election and actually come out victorious as the winner, I had to be sharp witted. Lucas's gun was well aimed and one miscalculated error could cost me my life. I ducked over as I rolled over to the other side of the room, as my back rolled over the floor, I quickly got back on my foot and clenched my fists. “Lucky you, I still have 3 bullets Xavier. I can go on all day, let's see how many bullets you can dodge.” The sharp, gritty beam of his voice beamed into my ears as I stiffened. A sharp shot of adrenaline launched into my veins as a cold chill ran down my spine. Slowly, I muster up the courage to open my eyes and when I finally did, I heard a sound.It first sounded like a creak but later, it soon morphed i

LUCAS'S POV I couldn't believe it.My father actually shot me.How dare he?Before I could react, I felt a sharp prickling pain in the part of my arm the bullet had been logged into. A loud groan rolled out of my lips as I winced loudly and closed my eyes to subdue the pain. My eyes reddened as I felt my knees buckle as fatigue spiraled into my veins.With my heart racing in my chest, I felt blood ooze out of my body as I began to feel dizzy. I tried to hold on to my gun, to shoot, but my fingers gave out weakly. Groaning once again, I stretched my uninjured hand and gripped the edge of the long meeting table. My fingers scratched against the table's rough textures as I opened my eyes.My lashes flustered open and the first sight I caught was that of him. The president. My own father. He was danding opposite me, his arm still raised with the edge of his bullet oozing out smoke.Blowing it out like a professional, he tucked it back into his pockets and shot me a glance.

ELLA'S POV The pulsating beats coming in from the speakers make me go wild as I tuned my body's sleek movements in sync with the music. With my hair messed up in what was supposed to be a ponytail, my body covered in a see through gown, I could probably say I had had a pretty great night. I loved the club, the buzz, it's ever pungent smell of sex and alcohol, the drinks. But everything was typical, just like yesterday and the day before. Scrambling my gaze across the usual crowd of clubbers, the series of flashing lights. I noticed something— someone, a man's intriguing figure, sitting at the mini bar. "I see you got your eyes on someone," A voice called out to me as I turned my gaze to the tall redhead lady I knew as my best friend, Maggie. Margaret flashed a weird wink of her eyes, a grin spreaded on her cheeks. "Shut up," I admitted, feeling guilty as we both laughed at each other. "Why not go talk to him," Maggie hollers, her voice calm and cool. My face twisted into a frow

ELLA'S POV "Thank you for dropping her," I murmured drenched in thoughts as I raised my head to see the stranger my daughter had brought home this time. Pulling my gaze past his body, I paused, recognition flashing past my shocked eyes. This was Xavier McKinney, my one night stand, Ivy's father. I couldn't believe my eyes, my jaw falls slightly as the memories of our one night stand rushes into my mind. I couldn't help but feel a flash of emotions from the past years I've been left alone to bear and train Ivy ever since day one. The first was dropping out of school, then loosing matt, my boyfriend at that time to the pregnancy I had with an unknown stranger. I remembered the sleepless night I've spent, cradling my pregnancy wondering how I'd singlehandedly mother a child. Anger kicked in my veins as the memories sank deep. The loneliness I felt when my belly bump began showing while in college and being teased and made fun of. The loneliness still crept deep, the night I'd del

ELLA'S POV My chest heaved heavily and so did my lungs. Each whiff of air they sucked in now burned like fire. A low shudder rippled through my lips as I dragged my feet forward. My legs made a low twigged sound as I paced forward in her direction.I could've sworn my bones were pulling me back. It all seemed like the loads of fear I had logged in at the back of my mind were now caving in on me. It had all gotten so heavy that I was struggling to maintain a proper stance.My eyes brace her figure as a surge of adrenaline pooled down my shoulders. This wasn't a matter of mouth talk any more. It was a matter beyond speeches and media interviews.This was a matter of life, death and the ruination of the McKinney family.I couldn't allow them to win. No. “So..” I heard a beam and my breath hitched in my chest. My fingers shivered as I gripped my chest in an aim to steady the heavy beating of my heart. A visceral tug of fear loosened in my chest as I watched Rochelle bring out her dagger

XAVIER'S POV When I saw Ella sprint towards me, my heart jumped in my chest. Shock reeled through my veins as my breath hitched. I opened my lips to say something, to say anything but nothing came out. Questions flooded my mind. I wanted to ask her why she was here. How she got here and why she was running like she was being chased but even before I could ask her a question, she beamed.“Here. Have this. Go in now. Play the video to the shareholders.” I stared back at her with a face as pale as a blank sheet. I raised my brows in confusion as a sense of urgency and fear locked in my chest. I opened my lips and tried to force out my voice. When it finally rolled out, it was in a hoarse whisper, “W… what do you—”Of all the times I expected my vocal chords to work, they chose to bail out on me when I needed them the most. I guess Ella's sudden appearance was what overwhelmed me. It better be it. If not, it had to be the nerving sense of danger that encircled me.From the frequency of

ELLA'S POV As Rochelle stepped into the elevator, I dipped my phone in my phone and stiffened. My heart raced hard and pounded erratically in my chest. Sweats trickled out of my pores and as it did, I felt a wave of fear sear down my spine.She was on to me.Her eyes were as dark as coal.Her fists were as firm as rocks.As she inched closer towards me, I paced backwards. My feet dragged backwards slowly and as it did, I nearly lost my stance. My back crashed into the hard surface of the elevator's walls. As my back crashed into it, I felt a twig snap as I opened my eyes slowly to find her standing in front of me.Fear coursed into my vein and I stiffened. I opened my lips to speak but as I did that, nothing rolled out. No words. Nothing.My lips quivered as shuddering puffs of air came out. My hair now clung to my sweaty face. The discomfort that came from having strands of my hair cling to my face was nothing compared to the one I felt with Rochelle near me.She was dangerous and I
