View MoreSyrus’s POVSyrus almost passed out; the news of Georgia’s pregnancy was all over the internet.“Fast Rising Star - Georgia is pregnant! And guess who the daddy is? Syrus Vale, CEO and heir of the Vale company.”Syrus opened his mouth in shock.“We are so happy!” Nancy said as she and Bonnie exchanged happy smiles. “Finally, a baby with the right woman!” Nancy gushed some more.But Syrus wasn’t listening to his mother, as he continued to read the rest of the story online.“Recall that a while back, there had been speculations about a relationship going on between Georgia and Georgia confirmed that they were dating. Well, apparently, something significant did come out of the relationship this time around, but we are curious; what about Syrus’s first wife?”Syrus was already shaking his head as he read through. “We never came back together!” Syrus stated, his voice hitting the roof.It was as though he desperately wanted his family and the general public to believe him. Then it dawned o
Syrus’s POVSyrus left Vivian’s apartment almost right after.The mistake he made was that he would have followed Vivian immediately she left and insisted on not letting her go, but he had been too stunned by everything that had happened that he wasn’t even acting right at all, and when he had realized that Vivian was truly gone, just a couple of seconds after, he had raced outside, but it seemed as though she had gotten a quick taxi and disappeared.Syrus had tried to run after her, but he didn’t even know the direction she had taken. He was confused. He was agitated, so he decided to call Davis. By all rights, Davis was his lawyer, and he wasn’t even supposed to be dealing with this all by himself. In fact, Syrus was now very upset as he recalled that Davis actually left right after Vivian declared that she was never going to sign the contract.“Wasn’t he supposed to pressure her and make her sign it?” Syrus asked no one in particular.Thinking about it now, Syrus was not even cons
Vivian’s POV“What do you mean by that?” Syrus asked me as I busied myself with packing the few things my hands could grab. Besides, it was not like I had much anyway.“I believe I was clear enough the first time,” I said angrily.“You are not going anywhere,” Syrus declared firmly.I left what I was doing and turned to him, shocked that he still had the nerve to be throwing orders and instructions at me.“Then leave!” I said. “I just want you to leave, Syrus, because I cannot bear the sight of you right now,” I added angrily.“There is no way I am leaving you in this state, Vivian; it’s too risky,” Syrus objected.“What do you mean by that?” I asked, confused, because I could not understand why he was saying what he just said, and his it aligned with the discussion at hand.“I know you, Vivian. If I leave you here, I might not find you here the next time I get back, and I cannot have that, which is why I wanted you to sign the contract before Georgia came and spoiled everything,” Sy
Vivian’s POVI looked at Syrus, shaken, confused, and downright heartbroken.Syrus had been my one and only, and to find out that he had a fiancé was just heartbreaking. My lips had quivered, and it was even a miracle that his phone did not fall from my hand.“What are you doing with my phone?” Syrus had asked instead of answering my question.My breathing had already increased rapidly, and it had felt like my heart was going to either explode or fall into my stomach. My world had literally come crashing down at that moment.“You have a fiancé?” I had repeated, more intensely this time around.My voice had shaken, and Syrus knew this. Tears had also spilled from my eyes.“We are no longer together,” Syrus had answered.Then he had walked up to me and collected his phone. He didn’t seem happy, and I could not tell if his anger was coming from the fact that I had looked through his phone, or something else, but whatever it was, Syrus looked upset which wasn’t fair, because I was the one
Vivian’s POVAfter walking out on Syrus and his lawyer, I stayed in the bedroom, and cried my eyes out.I have been a fool for Syrus, over and over again, but right now, I feel completely foolish and useless.“When are you going to ever learn, Vivian?” I asked myself amidst tears. “When are you going to stop being a fool for him?” I continued to question myself.The fact that we were divorced did not make the pain of his hurt any lighter. Syrus Vale was the first man I ever loved and dated, and up till now, the only man I have ever given my body to, but he had never been completely faithful to me. My family and Belinda were right; I was a fool for believing that a man like Syrus Vale who had seen the world would stay faithful to me. Even though we were two years apart, Syrus was obviously more exposed and experienced than I was, but I didn’t care, because I was deeply in love with him. Maybe if I had cared, I would not be in this situation.My babies deserved a family, not one that i
Georgia’s POVEven though Georgia was practically asked to leave the house, she was still giddy with excitement. The announcement plan certainly went exactly the way she wanted it. The shock and hurt was evident in their faces, especially Vivian’s, and Georgia could not have been happier.“I deserve an Oscar for this!” Georgia told herself with pride. As far as she was concerned, she was a good actress, and also, she had been able to steer the entire situation to her favor. Georgia knew that the next person that Vivian would run to was her best friend, but then again, she already had that part sorted out. One thing Georgia had noticed knowing Vivian and Belinda was that Belinda was literally Vivian’s backbone, and in the world of bringing an enemy to the ground, one would have to destroy the backbone first, or keep it at bay, before attacking the main enemy. Georgia hadn’t bothered with Belinda when she made her first strike by having an affair with Syrus, because she knew that they
Vivian’s POVI had no intention to shed tears, but I could hardly believe what just happened.Georgia was pregnant…for Syrus.We are divorced now, I understand, but that did not make it any less hurtful. I felt my heart shattering into a million pieces. The same woman that Syrus had an affair with, that caused me to divorce him, is now pregnant for him. So they have truly been in a relationship all this time. It wasn’t a new gist, but somehow, I had thought and hoped that it was all a lie. I watched Syrus as he read through the pregnancy result, and from the look on his face, Georgia was truly pregnant. I also noticed the look Georgia gave me; scornful and triumphant, and my heart broke.“It is a good thing your lawyer is here, Syrus, so that he knows that things are legal now,” Georgia said, breaking the silence.Syrus’s lawyer, Davis, stretched his neck and took a look at the result, and he shook his head. “Should we sit down and make things legal?” Georgia asked. “Wait, what?” Sy
Georgia’s POVThe shock on everyone’s faces gave Georgia more joy than she ever anticipated.“What…what are you talking about?” Syrus stuttered, utterly stunned.All Syrus’s pomposity and pride deflated, and it was evident in his voice. Georgia absolutely liked that, because it also gave her the chance to walk through all of them into the living room. While they looked at her in shock, she glanced around the living room. Georgia could not deny that it was cozy and luxurious.“So this is the place Syrus got for Vivian,” Georgia said to herself spitefully. Hatred, anger, and bitterness towards Vivian bubbled to the surface, and Georgia had to force herself not to scream. Every time she tried to make Vivian pay, things ended up being in her favor. Syrus had not spent a dime on Georgia ever since she met him; well, aside the first time when they had that wild and abrupt affair, and she only money she got from Syrus was giving her money when he wanted to leave the hotel, which Georgia had
Syrus’s POVSyrus and Davis arrived at the apartment he rented for her. The apartment was not just empty, but it was locked, so Syrus and Davis had to stand outside, which Syrus felt extremely embarrassed as he kept muttering under his breath. Davis kept checking his wristwatch and stomping his foot, waiting impatiently.“Did you call her to ensure that she was home?” Davis asked Syrus, trying not to sound as impatient as he was actually feeling.Syrus threw Davis a warning look. “I am just asking, Mr. Vale, because I do have a court case in less than two hours that I actually need to prepare for,” Davis said.He knew that he was standing on thin ice with Syrus, and his best job was actually on the line, so he needed to act accordingly, but at the same time, he had a very important court case to attend to. When he had taken the contract to Syrus, he had expected that Syrus would just collect the contract, take it to Vivian, have her sign it and bring it back to him, but instead, Syr
Vivian's Pov"Bullshit!" I cursed from the bottom of my chest as I watched the TV. The news channel headlined "Top actress and supermodel Goergia see linking arms with CEO of Vale Tech - Syrus Vale." I threw the coffee mug I was holding shattering the television. I had seen these reports before, but this one hurt more.That good for nothing husband promised to come home for my birthday, yet here he was, not just late, but fooling around with another woman, not just any woman but his ex-fiance to boot. I was the one who married him in the end, but it never felt like Syrus left her behind.I looked at the dinner table, still set with candles and the meal I spent hours making. The cake I baked sat there, untouched, its frosting melting. My hand shook as I picked up my phone and saw a message. It was a photo from Georgia. She rested her head on Syrus’s shoulder while he smiled, a smile I hadn’t seen in years.My breath caught in my throat. I felt stupid for holding onto hope. My frie...
