Xavier's POV Kitara and I stared at each other in utter disbelief.. From where had all these begin? Had I been so uninterested in my wife's life that I missed a lot happening with her? Our shocked state were interrupted as the door pushed opened and someone walked in. Immediately, I had rose from my seat and my sight traveled to the short entrance hall of the office as I expected the face of Almyra as the one that had walked in. However, "Good evening, everyone.", when the lady whose voice echoed and had marched further into the room, the light in my eyes dimmed with disappointment as she was not any where like the Almyra I so badly wanted to talk to. I frowned, a puzzled expression growing on my face.Who was this now and where the hell was Almyra Stone? Where was my wife?The lady continued, "Um, I'm sorry but Miss Stone won't be available for any visitors right now as she is very tired from having attended the fundraiser.""Miss. Almyra sends her apology however and specifical
Almyra's POV I was just getting done with one of my important works when the door was pushed open and my pa walked into the office. He reached closer as he informed, saying, "Sorry for the disturbance, ma'am, someone is here to see you." "Who?" I asked even though I was aware it was Xavier as my secretary had informed me of his coming to the company. "Ma'am, your meeting with Mr Farrell, he's the one that had come to meet you.." Jane my secretary, who stood patiently behind me was the one who spoke next in a calm tone. "Oh.." I only said, gazing at the document then gestured with the flickering of my fingers and the nodding of my head, "Let him in." Just as he reached out to open the door, "Xavier," I heard Kitara's voice rang from the other side. The man finally opened the door as I found Xavier looking at his side in the direction where Kitara was.. In a second, she was by his side, as she looked at him with a smile yet a serious gaze. She muttered something to him which un
Xavier's POVHow dare she? I walked out of her office, seething with anger as the security escorted us outside the building on the strict order of Almyra! The humiliation! My mood darkened further in displeasure, as I reached the parking lot, when I finally took notice of the person following me aside from my secretary. "The nerve of that girl, Almyra! I'm going to teach her a lesson!" She cursed angrily. "Kitara, no!" I interjected and with a firm warning, I continued, "You will stay out of Almyra's way.. " She stared at me, surprised flashed in her eyes as she gasped, "What?" "You heard me. "I replied, nodding my head simply, now looking unenthusiastic to even tolerate anyone at the moment. The only thing that seemed to resonate with me at the moment was Almyra. And I was either bothered about her or wishing to make amends with her! "If you know what's good for you, just stay away, okay?" I added lastly and turned around, continuing my walk towards my car. I felt her
Almyra's POVDespite trying my very best to not bother myself with anything concerning Xavier, I couldn't help but get moodier and moodier by the seconds. My heart shattered as I realized again that he had never been a good guy to me. Even not so long ago, after the huge disagreement unfolds, I could see his leniency towards Kitara. But then his annoyance with me when I had casted them out of my office, deeply enraged the hell out of me! How could he?Just then, the door open and Malum walked in. He paused, finding the sad look in my eyes as he drew closer to me immediately,"What's wrong?" He asked, leaning on the table, the space beside me. His concerns for me were indeed evident. I sighed and informed, "They showed up.." "So?" He urged me to keep narrating.as I went on anyway, "He is still the same jerk as usual, lenient with Kitara and aggressive towards me. " I found myself breaking down as tears filled my eyes and my sight becoming quite blurry with the water that had gath
Xavier's POV"She had an accident?" I exclaimed, still overcome by surprise. My talk with my driver still continued however. Ben went on, sitting behind the steering wheel as he drove me back home, "Yes, Mr. Farrell. The night the accident occurred, she begged for your presence and I had also informed you that I wasn't healthy enough at that moment, expecting you'd be there for your wife. However unfortunately, you had chosen to take Miss Anderson out of the country for her last surgery instead. No offense but Miss Anderson already has your mom ready to take care of her, Miss Stone on the other hand needed you but you never showed up. "He said and I felt unbelievably shocked than ever. "Your relationship with Miss Stone was cool at first, everything was alright but then your attitude changed the moment she lost her baby. It was as if you wanted her just for the baby and only seemed to wanting to blame her constantly for losing it !" Ben seemed interested in continuing and
Almyra's POV,"Xavier.." I called out in my intoxicated state as I realized the face of the person who had caught me was a stranger. I felt a sharp pang in my chest as I slowly straightened myself and quickly withdrew away from the man's hold. My gaze wandered everywhere else in the place I was, not sparing a single glance at the person before me while I searched for Xavier. I was sure it was him I sighted.. or had my brain and vision decided to play tricks on me?"Hello.." the stranger muttered as he waved his hand to get my attention, which I think worked as I stared at him this time. However, in the next few seconds, my attention drifted to my thoughts as more questions ran through my mind. My Feelings for Xavier were beginning to get out of hand, and I knew could one day be the ruin of me. I was so caught up in my thoughts about him that I hadn't realized walking away from the man who had saved me from my fall and didn't give a thank you. But by the time I realized, I was i
Almyra's POV, My mouth hung open, dumbfounded and taken aback by Xavier's words. 'Really, he didn't sign it?' were the words my eyes spoke for me as I stared at his eyes, seriously astounded. Isn't that what he wanted, to be out of his life? "I did sign it.. and I never asked you to leave, Almyra.." he said, his words stunning me even more as if he actually heard the words in my head. "Almyra," He called out again. "Okay so what?" I lashed out, glaring at me, "I wanted the divorce, I fulfilled my own parts of the formalities to annul whatever union we ever shared, whatever you do has nothing to do with me anymore!" "Almyra, you can leave me.." He uttered next, surprising me but I had responded back, " I already did!" Xavier let out a chuckle suddenly, causing me to crease my brows in a mix of surprise, and frustration. I kept glaring at him, real hard this time! In the silence that had set in upon his chuckle that seemed to boil my blood so much at his nonchala
ALMYRA'S POV. "What do you mean by no Keith?" I responded after it looked like the deal was going to collapse. Yeah it was on the brink of collapsing anyways. "Quantrum Spheres would not be partnering with this company." Keith gaze was still set on the file in which he held in his hand. Keith was one hell of a stubborn dude, well, he would listen to me his sister and….. "This deal is going to take is worldwide, I mean we are both a popular company but trust me, we would soar high if we could get this deal done." I was jolted out of my thoughts as Xavier spoke. "Well, your company could do that on their own and Quantrum Spheres would also do that on their own." Keith replied almost immediately, setting his gaze on Xavier who sanl slowly into his chair. I cleared my throat a little before I spoke, "The estimated amount in which our company would be getting annually would be?" I looked at Xavier's secretary as I spoke, at least breaking the silence. "The estimated amount annually
