Ruth POV

Hi dear readers, this is Ruth Conells point of view.

I sat at one end of the long bench with my feet tapping on the floor anxiously, the cool air penetrates through the window of the hospital as I heard distinct voices, I tried to look through the tiny hole of the door to the doctor's office Just then, a young woman of about my age walks out wearing a cap and face mask with her hand wrapped protectively around her protruding belly, she was heavily pregnant and seemed to have come for an antenatal.

She walked past me and waved which left me in surprise as my brow furrowed in confusion.

Hearing another ring indicating I was the next consultee, I picked up my purse and walked into the doctor's office.

"You're welcome Mrs Ruth please have a sit" The doctor said, her cheeks extended into a wide smile that I wondered if the previous strange lady had given him money.

"So doctor, what's up," I asked with agitation, my voice thick with fear of her response this time around.

    Vivian~I walked towards where Chris stood and the laptop placed in front of the table as his hands worked magnificently on the keyboard."Let me have a look"I said and he instantly shifted the laptop towards me. I watched as the video displayed, everyone going on their usual business.Damn! I didn't find anything suspicious! Was my guts wrong this time? It has never been like this.I grabbed the laptop and zoomed in, this time around I blocked out anything that could serve as a distraction, only focusing intently on the video displaying and just then, I found out something; this was an edited video that was used as a replacement for the main video. It was either the CCTV was hacked or the edited video was wired to display for a particular day thereby replacing the real one from showing at the headquarters."Chris, hack into the hospital CCTV in France on 1st July" I ordered but just then, one of the men slammed his hands on the table."We will not accept this, as a shareholder in thi

    Vivian~ I took out my phone and texted a number and after that, I dropped it back in my pocket then looked up at everyone. After Chris had revealed that one detail I had been looking for, I knew that was just the end of it all. I had spent close to an hour here and needed to go back to see my Mom. "Terminate all their contracts and unlike Mr Stanford, each of them will only return with nothing after everything has been deducted" "What!" They all screamed in unison and I narrowed my eyes. "What? Why? It's obvious you all involved in fraudulent activities to dupe the company by staking 50 million dollars shares but in turn, the total Money that had been duped from the company is 600 million dollars, all outlined under a ghost share," I added. " And if you still want to contend with it, perhaps file for a lawsuit but be well aware that I have the CCTV footage of the drug smuggling, the fake edited video disruption and the exact time 300 million dollars was moved out of the compa

    Vivian POVMy ears twitched in shock at the revelation.Max's Mom was dead? How? When? That is not possible! Can it be the reason for the stiff relationship between him and Hannah? No! There's no way! Max had clearly introduced Hannah to me as his Mom the day we had gotten married so how come?"I_ I don't understand please. What do you mean by Max's mother is dead? What about Hannah?" I asked all at once, my voice etched with bewilderment." It's complicated dear, really really complicated. I can't start explaining it now, I won't be able to finish it" He replied as he stood up."You'll get to know everything one day, just be patient, there are somethings I can't tell you at the moment" He added. "Common, let's go. Max would probably be raging right now that is if he hasn't gone mad coming after you" He said with sarcasm as he took me by the hands and we strode out. My head whooshed, still unable to comprehend everything Mr Norman had revealed to me since today.First, it was a myster

    3rd person POV"Vivian, can I talk to your Mom for few minutes please?" Mr Norman asked the shocked Vivian who stood rooted, her jaw wide and open in shock as she stared at him.Dumbfounded, she nodded at his words, turned and strode out without saying a word and slammed the door behind her, leaving them to the privacy they both obviously wanted but one was reluctant to show it. Vivian was utterly speechless and confirmed that her Mom might definitely have a history with Mr Norman.______"I missed you Catherine" Norman said as he walked towards where Catherine laid on the bed with her back turned against him in a reluctance not to look at him."Catherine, look at me" Norman urged as his hands reached for her, pulling her and turning her body to face him." Catherine, I__" Before Norman could finish his statements, Catherine crashed her lips on him as his hands roamed her back, all the walls he have managed to build over the years, dropped down and he found himself responding to her

    3rd person POVWho would believe that a patient was having an intense romance in the hospital? That was Catherine's case at the moment.Norman thrust in and out of her entrance with his finger, her fluids wet his hands making it easy for easier penetration, she was still tight for him that he had torn off her panties which seemed to prevent him from going further yet, her core muscles clenched tightly around his finger, wondering if he would be able to take her at all without someone walking in on them, it was almost close to thirty minutes now.The more his finger moved deeper, the more her muscles clenched, he wanted to stretch her out, to feel the depth of her hole on his hands.He increased his pace with his thrusts which had become more ruthless, wicked and rough and Catherine loved it, not the slightest bit of opposition smeared from her, instead, she held his hands tightly in between her legs, not wanting him to pull out even for a second."Ahhhh Norman, it, it feels so~" Her v

    Vivian POVI was stunned at the sight in front of me, my Mom almost making out with Mr Norman? As much as it felt real I'm my eyes, it still seemed unbelievable."Vivian, I can explain" My Mom said, her expression turning with a desperate plea for hearing but I shook my head. I wasn't angry at her instead I was confused.What is the relationship she had with Mr Norman? To The point of getting this intimate? My head throbbed immensely, aching with a force that told me that I needed rest for the day at least.For now, I wouldn't perturb neither of them with questions, I'll leave it for another day because my eyes was already turning weak, my body felt like fainting and at this point, I knew I needed to be at homeGlancing at them one last time, I turned and and walked out, slamming the door behind as I made my way out of the hospital. Just then, I bumped into someone, he was a guy and wore a cap."Fuck! I'm sorry" I said, placing my palms over my forehead."Are you okay?" The moment I h

    Vivian POVI stiffened at Max's embrace, strange and unusual yet it felt soothing and no matter how much I didn't want to admit it, the truth weighed heavy on my mind as I relaxed into his arms."I_ I went" I stuttered, not knowing what to say especially when Daniel Browns was standing right before us. Max had obviously acted so strange and possessive right now which confused me."Max?" I called, drawing his attention away, he leaned in on my neck, cocked his head beside me that out faces touched and arched an eyebrow at me." Daniel is here, can't you see him?" I questioned, sensing the stiffened tension between both men. They were best friends and I was pretty sure of that but the sudden rift that hung heavy in the atmosphere right now, told me that all wasn't really well with their relationship." It's good to see you Max, I actually wanted to come visit after_"" I will not receive you Daniel" Max cajoled out of the blue, cutting in on his words as an expression of confusion align

    Vivian POVI had ran to Max on seeing him, not fully knowing his identity as the heir to the Norman's enterprise. I wouldn't forget the look of shock on his face the moment I hugged him out of the blue. But when I recollected my self, I had felt so embarrassed, especially at the way he looked at me back then." Vivian?" Max's voice broke me out of my reverie, my mind had drifted off to the past. " We're home already, Are you okay?" He asked and I nodded but I could feel his gaze on me from the rear mirror of the car."These days, you're not yourself any longer Vivian, and you're really loosing weight, tell me if there's any problem" He demanded, his voice laced with concern perhaps not concern, but what I have concluded it to be.I sighed, feeling the weight of every single event that had taken a turn today,my head throbbed immensely with headache, my shoulders completely exhausted, my knees weak, I doubted if I could even step out of the car right now.

    The rain drummed lightly against the glass windows of a thp penthouse rhythmic whisper against the silence that had settled between them. Vivian stood by the fireplace, her arms crossed, her lips slightly parted as if she wanted to speak but couldn’t quite find the words.Max leaned against the back of the couch, his sharp blue eyes trained on her, unwavering, unreadable. He had removed his jacket, his white shirt unbuttoned at the top, revealing the strong lines of his chest. The firelight flickered against his skin, casting reflection that made him look more dangerous—more irresistible.“I hate it when you shut me out,” Vivian finally said, her voice quieter than she intended.Max exhaled, rubbing his fingers across his jaw. “I’m not shutting you out, sweetheart.” His voice was deep, rough, filled with an edge of restraint. “I just don’t know how to forget the sight of you crying over him.”Vivian sucked in a breath. She knew exactly what he meant. The image of her embracing Daniel

    Max stood at the edge of the terrace, the cool evening breeze tousling his dark hair. He hadn’t expected to feel this way—light, free, and even a bit hopeful. After everything that had happened, all the deceit, the betrayals, the conspiracies that had weighed heavily on his shoulders, he finally had a moment of peace. The past was behind him, but the future was bright, and it was something he’d begun to look forward to.As the golden rays of the setting sun stretched across the sky, Max took a deep breath, allowing the warmth to settle in his chest. He hadn’t realized just how suffocating the tension had been until it was gone. Vivian and Emma, the two people who had become his world, were safe, and the people responsible for the harm they’d caused would no longer be a threat.But this moment wasn’t about them. This was about something else. Something Max had never expected, something that, despite everything, felt like a reward—a new beginning.It had been a quiet evening, the mansio

    The final Blow.The courtroom was filled with tension, the air thick with anticipation. Max stood at the back, his eyes sharp, scanning the room as the defendants were led in. Ruth, Hannah, and Alexander, each appearing cold and composed, but Max could see the cracks forming beneath their facades. Their time had come.The gallery was filled with spectators, reporters, and those affected by the heinous crimes that had been committed. The seats were packed, yet there was a stillness that enveloped the room as the doors opened, and the accused were escorted to their designated seats.Max stood quietly, the weight of the entire process settling on his shoulders. He wasn’t just here to see them convicted; he was here to make sure the truth was brought into the light. The truth that had been hidden for so long. The truth that had torn apart so many lives, including his own.The courtroom had a sterile atmosphere—cold marble floors, high wooden ceilings, and the buzz of murmurs filling the a

    Hi dear readers this book is coming to an end with just few more chapters ahead and an epilogue as well, be active.A week later.Max had spent years mastering the art of control—whether in business, in combat, or in the relentless war for power that had shaped his life. But tonight wasn’t just about control. Tonight was about ending this.Ruth, Hannah, and Alexander had played their twisted games for far too long. They had destroyed lives, ripped families apart, and forced Vivian into years of torment. It was time they faced the consequences.Max stood in front of a dimly lit table, the blue glow from the monitors casting reflection over his sharp features. The private estate security footage played in front of him, a slow feed of a place that would soon become the stage for their downfall.Ray stood beside him, arms crossed, his expression hard. “Are you sure about this?”Max didn’t glance at him. “It’s the only way.”Ray exhaled, nodding. “Then let’s go over it again.”The setup wa

    Back at the suite, after Max had dropped off the little girl he saved earlier in the hospital to tend to her and also make inquiries about her parents, Max carried Emma inside, gently laying her on the bed. She stirred slightly, her lashes fluttering, but exhaustion kept her under.Vivian brushed a hand over her daughter’s hair, tears threatening to spill. “My baby…”Max exhaled, rubbing a hand down his face. “She needs to rest. And so do you.”Vivian turned to him, eyes flashing. “How can I rest? Max, she was taken! If you hadn’t found her, if you hadn’t—” Her voice cracked, and she pressed a hand to her lips.Max closed the distance between them in two strides, gripping her arms. “But I did find her.” His voice was low, firm. “And I won’t let it happen again.”Vivian looked up at him, searching his face. “Ruth won’t stop.”His expression darkened. “Neither will I.”A heavy silence stretched between them.Vivian’s breath was shaky as she stepped closer, pressing her forehead to his c

    The dim light of Max’s computer screen was the only source of light in the room, casting sharp shadows over his face as he stared at the footage playing in front of him. His hands were clenched into fists, his jaw locked so tightly it ached.The moment Emma had gone missing, he had known something wasn’t right. And now, he had proof.On the screen, the tiny, barely noticeable footage from Vivian’s earrings played. It was a risk he had taken, secretly placing a micro CCTV camera on them before leaving. He hadn’t told her—not because he didn’t trust her, but because he didn’t trust the world around her.And now, that paranoia had paid off.A grainy, shadowy figure moved into the hotel room. The timestamp showed it was mere minutes before Vivian woke up and found Emma gone. The man was fast, calculated—he knew exactly where to go.Then, for a split second, his face was caught in the reflection of a mirror.Max froze the footage and zoomed in. His blood ran cold.Damian Cross.A ghost fro

    The phone call ended with a cold finality, the kidnapper’s warning ringing in Vivian’s ears. Her breath came in shallow bursts, her fingers clenched around the phone so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Her world had shrunk down to a single, terrifying truth—Emma was in the hands of a monster, and she had to get her back. Alone.Vivian fought the urge to collapse. She couldn’t afford to fall apart. Emma needed her to be strong.Her eyes darted around the park, scanning for any sign of the man who had spoken to her moments ago, but he had vanished into the trees, blending into the shadows like a ghost. There was no one to follow, no immediate threat, just the suffocating silence pressing against her chest.Vivian forced her trembling legs to move, stumbling back toward her car. Her mind was already working at a frantic pace. The kidnapper had told her to come alone, no police, no Max. But how could she face this alone? She had no weapons, no plan, nothing but the desperate love o

    Vivian woke up to the soft morning light filtering through the blinds. She knew Max had left and her body ached, a pleasant reminder of the night before, of the fire that had burned between her and Max. But as her eyes fluttered open, a sense of unease crept up her spine. The bed beside her was empty, the sheets slightly tangled as if Max had gotten up in the early hours of the morning.She pushed herself up on her elbows, glancing around the room. She couldn’t hear Emma’s usual morning giggles or the sounds of her little feet padding across the floor. The silence was unnerving, too quiet for a house that normally buzzed with life, even if it was just the two of them.Her heart sank as she pushed the covers off and swung her legs over the side of the bed. She had been so caught up in the heat of the moment with Max that she hadn't thought about Emma. In the past, Emma's early morning wanderings were never a cause for concern, but today, something felt different."Emma?" Vivian called

    The house was quiet, save for the soft hum of the refrigerator in the kitchen. Emma had fallen asleep quickly, her small body curled up beneath the covers, her peaceful expression a welcome contrast to the chaos of the past days. Vivian had kissed her goodnight, her heart heavy but full, before slipping silently out of the room.Max was waiting in the living room, his presence unmistakable even before she stepped through the door. The dim light from the lamps cast reflection over his face, making him look like a man on the edge—intense, brooding, and yet somehow still impossibly magnetic.Vivian hesitated for a moment, her pulse quickening at the thought of being alone with him again. She had never imagined things would unfold like this, never expected the intensity of the emotions that had resurfaced between them. The spark between them was undeniable, but so were the complications. So many unspoken truths, and still so much left to face.Max didn’t speak right away, but his eyes fol
