Violet's POVI opened my eyes slowly, not because I wanted to do so but I was having a throbbing headache. I couldn't even open my eyes without feeling so much pain. I held my head tightly and groaned in pain.Looking at the ceiling I knew I was at the hospital again. Why did I wake up at the hospital again? The pillow I laid my head on was soaked with my tears. I must have been crying from my sleep. The room was dark and I saw no one.I couldn't even recognize where I was and I tried to move but it seems that I was tied with a change. I screamed so loud as I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. What was happening to me… "Val! Stay calm," Jason's worried voice inquired before his face could come to view. Seeing him walk closer to me and hold me quickly, I stared at him confused as to why he was here."What are you..""You don't remember what happened?" He asked anxiously. Sitting upright on the hospital bed, I instantly feel my throat run dry. "Water. Please water" I said with a ho
Violet's POV "Yes," Donald acknowledged. I frowned. I knew that Clara wouldn't appreciate me questioning her fiance but I had to do this.I do not trust the fact that he didn't follow me there. Of all the hotels in town, why would he be at the same one I went to?"Jason said you were the one who called him. How did you know the room?" I asked him.I was making sure I wasn't sounding rude so that Clara wouldn't be angry. I didn't want her to see me as an ingrate but what I was doing was also for her own good."I saw you talking to Joe when you got inside the hotel," he said the truth.I quickly looked at Clara whom I expected to wear a frown but she didn't. "Why did you follow me then?" I asked, eager to know every little detail. Clara already knew that we met behind her. I just hope behind that calm face, there wasn't anger and doubt. " While you were rushing inside the hotel to meet with Joe, the cab driver came to me. He said you had mistakenly dropped your phone in the car and
Violet's POV "Yes, you do"Excited, Donald moved over to hug me but I stopped him quickly. "No, don't do that." "Oh, right""Why don't you go on out there and check ok Clara?" I say. "Something must be keeping her waiting."I just didn't want Donald and I to be left alone for too long. Just before Donald exited my room, I popped up the one question that had been in my head ever since. "Hey, Donald?""Yes?""What about Joe? Did anything happen to him?"It was weird that Donald didn't mention anything about Joe after he'd ended his story. "Joe actually got away," Donald says, resentment evident in his voice. "But don't worry, we're doing all we can to find him."I know Joe did wrong but I wouldn't want them hurting him, given the years we've spent together. I didn't say anything about that because defending Joe was outrightly a wrong idea now.The door to my room was slid open as Jason walked in with Clara who was carrying a basket filled with fruits. "Sorry I took so long," he sa
Jason POVIt was supposed to be a day like every other day. And as usual, I was just about heading home after a tiresome day at work when my phone began to vibrate against my office desk. "Who could it be?" Grabbing my phone out from behind my jeans back pocket, Violet's name displayed across the screen as I couldn't prevent a smile from creeping up my lips.I taped the green button."What? Do you miss me?" I teased. "Work just closed for the day so I'm on my way home.""Jason, it's me, Donald" came a deep masculine voice panting profusely. I furrowed my brow, confused. "Donald? Why do you have Violet's phone?""Something happened," he said.My head flew away, like it has his own separate body and I couldn't help but to feel fear. "What happened?" I asked in panick.Violet just recovered from her last accident, I don't think her body would take another. "She was almost raped by Joe--fortunately, I could stop him before this went too far. She'd passed out from shock and now I'm in
Clara's pov."Is that everything, Madam?" My wedding dress designer inquires. Going over our list one last time, I nod. "That's everything. Thank you for your time"Exiting the wedding boutique, I climbed onto my car; heading straight to work. It's been a month now and the wedding preparations were getting closer. After what had happened with Violet and Joe, I was very convinced that Donald truly loved me and not Violet. And that made me decide to come clean with Donald. Pulling out my phone, I put a call through to Donald. "Hello?""Yeah? Is everything alright, Clara?""Yeah. I'm actually on my way to work right now and I thought maybe we could have dinner later when I clock out?" I rambled on. Donald chuckled. "I would love that. Text me when you are done?"I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "Sure""Have a great day at work""You too"Hanging up, I focused my attention back towards the road. Now that I was going to finally tell Donald my biggest secret, I suddenly
Clara's POV My heart was beating so fast as I saw Donald fasten his eyes on me. I knew I had to prepare for the worst but yet I was very scared.I didn't know that one day I would be telling someone I love the most painful part of my life. I will try to tell Donald without adding emotions to it. The hatred I have for Camille was beyond imagination."You know Camille right?". I started from there." Are you talking about Camille of Dvelle's companies? " Donald asked.Camille is a public figure and to our family business, his family's business is the one seconding and that was the reason he hated our family. He always want to be at the topnotch."Yes," I replied."Okay?" "I was once in love with Camille." I start. "And honestly, I had thought it's one of the best moments in my life--until you came around, that is"I skipped knowing that I shouldn't have said that. "Just as I loved Camille, I could feel that he loved me as well" I continued. "We started of as friends so we had a lot
Clara's POVThe following day, I open my eyes slowly just to be blinded by the sun rays.Groaning, I climbed down from the bed to close the window blind. Returning back to the bed, I sit on top; admiring Donald's sleeping face until my phone rings, interrupting the moment. I moved out of the bedroom to answer it; it was Jessincth. "Yes, Jessincth?""I don't mean to disturb you ma'am but there is a Mr. Camille here to see you"I stilled. What was Camille doing at my office?. I know we were supposed to meet today but he didn't text me the time and place. "Thank you for informing me, I'll be there soon""Okay, ma'am"Camille, what on earth are you thinking? In haste, I sprint back into my room to see Donald wide awake. "Where were you?""I had a phone call"He taps the bed. "Well, if you're done, come back to bed"I let out a soft laugh, approaching him to place a light kiss on his lips. "As much as that offer sounds tempting, I have to get to work. The phone call earlier was because
Jason's povThe next day while I was at work, I instantly put a call through to Dexter. "Have you found Joe yet?""Not yet"Disappointed, my voice sounded more rough than expected. "You said you would have found him by morning!""Chill man, I'm not the one that helped him escape"I exhaled deeply. "You're right. I'm sorry. I'm busted really desperate to find him""And we will. Remember who I am, right?. I'm Dexter, the computer genius that owes you his life"I let out a soft laugh. "Saying you 'owe me your life' is a bit of a stretch, isn't it?""Well, it's true""Alright. Just let me know when you find any leads, okay?""Sure"Hanging up, I threw myself down into work to get Joe out of my head. I also suppressed the urge to call Violet and ask how she was doing. I didn't want her to feel pressured by my concerns. "Is everything alright, Sir" Alex asked. "Something seems to be bothering you""It's nothing. I just didn't sleep well last night so in quite uptight this morning""Do you
Violet’s POVWaking up knowing your best friend is dead feels like a whole part of you has been taken and you just feel numb and in denial.I've spent the last forty two hours convincing myself that a miracle would happen and Clara would come back to us, smiling and hugging me again.My entire world shattered the day Rachel put a bullet into Clara’s chest, hitting her far too close to her heart, no chance of survival, what the doctor said and it’s been replaying in my head for hours.The agony in my chest feels like a thousand knives, each one deeper and more excruciating than the last every breath I take is a cruel reminder that she no longer takes any at all and it was all my fault.Her absence is a gaping wound that nothing can heal. The memories, once a source of joy, now feel like a cruel joke played by time. I remember the warmth of her smile, the sparkle in her eyes, and the way her laughter could light up even the darkest of days especially when I’d come to her about Jason .
Jason 's POVI was on edge. Violet had been kidnapped for the third time. I don't even know when those people would stop.I already had a team working on finding her location while I tried to calm the fuck down, which isn’t working out for me.Pacing around, I finally got informed that they had found her location. When it came to my wife, my rational thinking was considered non-existent and I quickly rushed over to the location.I went into the small building which looked like a closed down bakery on the outside but was very different on the inside.I went in alone and followed the sounds of people talking in the distance.My feet led me into a room with not so much lighting but I could see two figures standing opposite the door.Camille and Rachel . I fucking knew it.They noticed I had arrived “Ah Jason welcome, we’ve been waiting for you y’know? Took you long enough.” He said while relaxing his elbows on a table nearby.I quickly observed the room and noticed a small door in som
Rachel 's POV“Why would you do something as insensible as this?!” Camille asked the boys who helped us kidnap Violet and her best friend, who was also my ex boyfriend's sister.“When the task was given to you, I asked of only Violet . Not anyone else. Can't you all do a clean job?” Camille continued his scolding. The boys shuddered in fear, honestly I didn't know why Camille was behaving this way. His reaction was annoying, I was happy to get Violet. Clara was a bonus, that bitch never liked me even when I was dating her brother. “They were together boss, it would be unprofessional on our path to take only one of them sir. The other one would have raised an alarm immediately and it wouldn't be this outcome sir.” one of the boys which I assumed to be the leader said. “Bullshit!” Camille retorted angrily. “Calm down Cam, their reasons are factual. Besides this is a bonus for us, Clara was always an obstacle on my part.” I said to him.Not that I forgot the escapades between Camil
Violet 's POVI sat among everyone deciding whether I was ready to do this. I felt my hands sweaty from being too anxious and I had to take deep breaths to calm myself down.This was one of the things I hated, I didn’t like to address people. This was one of the reasons why this position was not right for me. I can barely speak in the presence of a lot of people, it was not just my thing.I knew Charles was very capable. He was outspoken and capable. Besides this was what he had always wanted. “Good morning ma'am,” they greeted as they all walked in. I wasn’t used to this but I tried, I liked to be free. I wanted to be free. Maybe I could tell them not to address me as ma’am.“Good morning everyone. As you must know I am the heir of the Shakesmen property.” I said, introducing myself.I never imagined myself to be in this position a few years back. I had always thought I was going to continue living my normal life. Though it pained me that I could not live with my family. I did not
Violet 's POVJason had just gotten back from work and I welcomed him. He looked hungry. I reached out to kiss him and what he did next shocked me. His right hand, firmly gripped on my hips this time, he pulled me closer as he sucked on my neck area. Using his left hand, he shut the door behind us and locked it rapidly. "Jason ," I called slowly as what he was doing to me was really messing my head up."I miss us baby," he groaned.This time as I was pinned by the wall, he devoured my upper lips and then my lower lips. He did this interchangeably. Soon as I was filled with pleasure, I wanted more and decided to kiss him back the way I wanted.I entangled my tongue with his as I proceeded to use my hands to tease his cock area. I felt him moaning in my mouth which made me feel satisfied.After continuously sucking and devouring each other's lips, I decided to spice up the moment by going naked.I struggled to remove my shirt because he refused to free my lips from his. When he noti
Rachel 's POVI hit the steering wheel angrily!“F**k! This shouldn't have happened.” I muttered to myself. Despite all my tries, it seems Violet just always slips off at the time of death. I was only smart enough this time to have escaped, else I would have also been arrested. The only mistake Violet was making was thinking I was going to back down. I would never back down, I have to kill that wench!Right now I was on the lookout, I had to be careful else I will end up behind bars. The only person that could help me was someone with affluence and power. My parents would never agree to help me. In fact my father, when he heard that I was involved in the case again, had decided to disown me. My mother was mad at me but she was still considerate unlike my father. All these was no one else's fault aside from that bi*ch called Violet. I won't relent until I see her buried six feet to the ground.I also hated Jason with passion. After all I've done for him, he still chose to betray
Jason 's POVViolet walked towards my direction with a smile. The smile that makes my heart flutter whenever I see it. There was just this thing that she does to me, I couldn't explain it. There was a party organized for Violet 's welcome back. Few of the Hughes family were there. They were people we don't even know but they were kind enough and happy to receive Violet .Kaitlyn and her family were still in jail awaiting the court's order. Evidence had already shown that they were guilty of all crime charges. Now no one was going to bother my woman anymore.“Congratulations my love or should I say CEO.” I said, giving her a quick kiss. "I just hope you won't leave me now that it happened that you are far wealthier than me?" I asked playfully “Don't be silly, besides I told you I don't want to be the CEO,” she said.I stared at her with a frown, why would she not want to?“You know that I would stand by you whenever you need help, you don't have to be bothered about it.” I said to
Jason 's POV“Who are you?” someone in the board meeting asked. We had arrived earlier but we had to wait for the right time to strike. I had spoken to Violet a day before and told her all of our plans. Though, I wasn’t going to involve her too much with talking. I had made those plans ahead, I made sure they weren’t going to have to question her right. This was the least she deserved after suffering for years. Those evil doers had stripped her off her right. They didn’t allow her to enjoy her time with her family and now they also didn’t want her to enjoy her wealth. I wasn’t going to allow that Everyone's eyes were on us as we made our presence in the room.I knew they weren’t expecting us. In fact, they had forgotten about us when they got the documents. Their focus changed and that was exactly what we wanted. If their focus still remained on us, it wouldn’t have been easy to get some of the evidence we got today. “We are here to introduce the real heir of this company to you
Narrator's POV Violet and Jason had started receiving threats from unknown numbers about the whole issue. At first Violet was scared but Jason had told her not to be. They increased their security system and kept the evidence in a safe place. They were still pondering on what to do but Jason had gone to see Hughes' private lawyer and told him about the case. They had agreed to keep everything low for now and strike when the evil doers were not expecting it. Rachel on the other hand has agreed to work with Summer and Kaitlyn . She had craved for revenge and there couldn't be any better opportunity than this. Rachel didn't even bother to think things through, all she wanted was for Violet to be dead. Her life had turned miserable all thanks to that bitch and this was her final chance for revenge. She agreed immediately and they all devised a plan to get into Jason ’s house. Rachel knew Violet was gullible enough to accept her pleas if she begged so she went to Jason ’s
