My father sold me out, I hate my family and hatred is slowly taking over my life. I was forced into a marriage that I didn't want with a billionaire. My pride couldn't bear his arrogance and cold-heartedness demeanor so I ran away wishing to not get caught. -"I might not want to be a part of this marriage but why don't you?" he asked in a husky voice. -"Why can you not want it but I can't, that is why I despise you, Shawn." I spat out. He grabbed my hand pulling me to his chest as he aimed for my lips, I wanted to back away but his firm grip wouldn't let me. He tried to invade my mouth but I didn't grant him entry so he bit my lip which caused me to yelp and that was his chance to deepen the kiss as he held my waist pinning me to his body.
View MoreAfter half a year.The rain was pouring heavily; I was standing between Kenny and Shawn holding a sad expression on our faces. The weather was sharing my sorrow and my heart was heavier than ever. I was trying to not cry but as usual, I ended up wetting the ground beneath me. I never thought that I would be this distressed over my father's death since I always wished for it.In the last six months, Kenny and I invested a lot of time for dad, we were spending most of our time together as if we were compensating for our previous years. We wanted to relive an experience that we wished for when we were kids. The German doctor could not realize the impossible, it was already known that dad would die and that is exactly what happened.After the funeral, Shawn asked all the attendants who were all from my side to come and spend the night in the mansion. He knew that dad's death left an empty space in my heart and that I need to fill it with ot
Lily's POV:When I saw those eyes of my brother, I knew right away that he would not want to visit dad. I forced him to accompany me to the hospital as I told Shawn what happened exactly since I have been kidnapped. He ordered his men to bring Siergo to his feet so he would be punished respectively.Shawn waited in the hall for us after he ordered Jack to go back home, I informed my brother about how dad was pressured and that the only reason he treated us badly was because; I am illegitimate and Kenny always took his mother's side even though she betrayed him.I kept convincing him that we have to be by his side on his death bed. Eventually, he gave in to my exasperation and agreed to check up on him with me. We both entered his room, dad was arguing with the doctor to let him leave but the doctor refused."I am telling you, I do not care whether I live or die just let me go," he yelled."Why don't you care?" Shawn replied, he o
Shawn's POV:I asked the same prosecutors I threatened to get my dad in prison to release him, I felt humiliated when I did so. I was so angry that I kept imagining killing my dad; I wanted to practice the scene in my head. I waited for him to get out of prison; he eventually appeared from behind the gate."I can tell from your face that you can't even wait to go elsewhere, you can shoot me here if you want," he ridiculed."Get in the car," I ordered.I was taking him to the nearest excluded place which was the warehouse across the prison, we accessed it and I parked my car. Just when I was ready to shoot him, a lot of bodyguards came in running towards me, I didn't give a shit about it and still aimed at my father. To my surprise, he was carrying a gun himself.How did he get a gun? How did he even contact his men in prison when he can only contact one person a day and that was me, I wondered."You must be perplexed by now, I was rel
I reached the hospital and the nurse led me to the ICU in order to see my father. I entered the room to spot him lying on his bed, he was still unconscious. The doctor told me that he has stage four liver cancer from all the alcohol he drank during his lifetime, he has only six months left to live at most and this stage can not be treated."How did he come here?" I asked."He lost his consciousness on the streets and someone brought him here,"I recalled that I have to call Shawn as soon as possible; I should not be the reason why Gerald get out of prison, that is not why I came back. I did not know Shawn's number though so I was in a tight spot.I checked up on dad one last time and asked the doctor to not let him out of the hospital until I come to get him myself. I gave them my account number and paid online for my father's hospital fees. I decided to quickly rush to the mansion and ask someone to contact Shawn for me. I did as planned and took one of
Shawn's POV:I know that beating the man inside the van for facts was useless; I checked my phone waiting for a phone call. Her brother looked my way as if he understood why I stood in silence; he seemed to wait for the same phone call.My phone rang as expected, I had already sent my men to look up CCTVs and check all of the vans' locations but I knew better than anyone that this will not work because it will take us a lot of time that we do not have."Do you miss me?" Gerald asked from the other side of the line."Out of bail?""No, but you will get me out soon," as Gerald was saying that sentence, my assistant informed me that his case would go to court."I see that Siergo's betrayal didn't really get you anywhere," I ridiculed.Before Tony called me to inform me about Lily's coming back and her flight, I received a call from my men at Siergo's house. I was told that the doctor has been killed and that
I made my brother a cup of tea, even though it has been a long time since I have last seen him but strangely enough after what he has told me. I felt really comfortable sitting by his side, he kept telling me about how he spent those past years. As soon as he reached France, he worked as a waiter since he did not have enough money to continue his education.Gerald got him an apartment but did not give him any money; he started from zero until he bought a house in a nice street after becoming the restaurant's manager. He mentioned that he was offered an arranged marriage with a girl he liked but he refused since he did not want to be responsible for anyone anymore.He dated for fun and also presumed his karate training even in France. He taught kids how to fight in a dojo he knows from time to time. I was proud that he managed to straighten his life even though it was hard for him to do so.I told him about how Gerald forced me to marry his son and took ove
The man was tall, thin, and black-haired with light grey eyes that matched mine. His look was hot-blooded and his face screamed no mercy. I recall these features very well; this man is no one else other than my brother."I am sure you know who I am, sis," he pronounced the word 'sis' as easy as drinking water, what gives him the right to call me that?"I am sorry, I think you got the wrong person," I retorted while passing by him unlocking my door.I closed the door behind me but before I knew it, he was already inside slipping swiftly with her thin figure."Are you deaf, get out," I spat out to his face."I did not expect this reaction, I thought you would show me tears of happiness if I showed up like that," he started."Do you think I am the same fragile little girl from before? Why would I even waste my time and talk to you,""So you know who I am," he smirked.Fuck him, he is really wishing for a beating."Wha
Shawn's POV:The police knocked on our door as predicted, it seems that dad could not prevent his arrest at least, he must have struck a deal somehow, I needed to know who are those persons if I wanted to get them on my side. I placed a wire in his office and I indeed knew whom exactly did he call.They took him away in their patrol car and I had twenty-four hours to work out on keeping him there. I called Siergo to make sure that the doctor is held safely at his place, I have instructed him yesterday that he must protect him at all cost, he is our sole witness after all.Gerald killed his brother and I sent the evidence to the prosecutors already, I have tortured the doctor to confess. I also threatened him with his family and promised him protection if he becomes our witness.The doctor mentioned that Gerald was having a dispute with his brother, Indigo was mad that Gerald hid his daughter from him all this time and told him that
I was in the airport waiting for my flight to arrive, it was 6 pm and I bet Shawn would be going back home by now. I wonder what would his reaction be when he reads my letter. An hour has passed; I got on board and leaned in my seat as I grabbed tightly my small backpack.I never had a lot of belongings and it seems that I will never have, I am going to a new country where I know no one there. All alone, I am supposed to cope with the environment and succeed in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I kept thinking of Shawn all the ride long, as I reached France, Paris; I checked my account to find a million in cash in my bank account.I guess Gerald wanted me to never come back for real, it is not like I thought he wouldn't but it just hurts me whenever I think of that old geezer and how he managed to ruin my life.I unpacked in an apartment that I have rented until I find a nicer permanent home. The room was clean and that all I needed, I was not picky,
Let me speak with you for a little bit about my life. I am Lily Anderson, daughter of the neighborhood gambler. I came from a poor family and I have a single older brother, my mom breaks my heart whenever I am reminded of her. She died from hunger; dad preferred to sleep with a prostitute instead of feeding her.I was 13 years old when I witnessed my mom's death, she refused to eat the food I brought her and insisted that dying would just be better, I begged her to reconsider as I didn't want to lose the only reason why I continue living. She did not listen to me nor care about me at all but I do not blame her for leaving me behind, after all, no human would want to live this way.
