Neither Vince nor I minded the man acting so cold. I was sure he is quite disappointed that we didn't bake rubbish even though it looks like it."It's almost time, stop behaving like a baby and go get dressed" he said bluntly." Get dressed?" I was confused."My appointment is in thirty minutes," he said.I widened my eyes. I had totally forgotten about his appointment with Mike. Today was when we would know what was exactly wrong with him. "Stop feeling concerned when you are not the one dying?" Jason mocked me and he regretted it immediately because Vince talked."Die? Who is dying?" He asked."No one is dying. I am just making fun of your mommy" he replied immediately.Vince frowned, put his small hand in akimbo and the other hand pointed at his father."You always bully mommy. Have you forgotten that she's not only my mommy but also your wife? You told me that females should be treated right and yet you are breaking your own words. I am disappointed daddy" Vince said.Jason looked
Joe's POVBeing Violet's best friend came with a lot of problems. The girl was so foolish and always caring about other people but she did not know how to care about herself for my liking. Although a doctor must be compassionate , there must be a limit to it."Doctor Joe, " a sickly sweet voice called. It belonged to a male nurse, Derek. For some reason, he believed I was gay even though I have told him times without number that I wasn't interested in him."Boy, please, if you could stay away from me, I would greatly appreciate it" " You don't even know what I wanted to say...""What is it? " I made sure my voice was cold to show him that I was in no mood to entertain rubbish. But even this won't work on him, Derek was a pervert. "I have not seen you with that friend of yours, " he frowned as he mentioned the word friend. I knew he meant Violet because I don't have many friends. "Please talk properly, " I told him, "And Violet is a busy woman, she has a lot of kids to attend to, unl
Violet's POV"Where are the maids?" Jason asked me like I was just a common servant. I don't know how the maids issue was my business. I don't even think I know most of them. Each passing moment, I just got more embarrassed. Who was this woman? Why does he act so differently with this woman?Jason even introduced me as Vince's doctor and he didn't even mind if it was going to affect Vince's health. Well it's not as if he lied about me being Vince's doctor but then I don't know why it kinda hurt me. Maybe I wasn't treating only Vince but him also. I know that I needed to leave this place before I could embarrass myself. Then a phone call luckily saved me. I wouldn't have mind kissing the ass of this person that just called. "Excuse me," I said I have never walked so fast in my life. I went to my room and locked the door, falling to my feet. Tears escaped my eyes. This was not the life I wanted. Back there in the room I felt so unwanted. I also noticed that I wasn't the only one disp
After a while, I left Joe's house even though he didn't want me to leave. I don't want Jason to have my head on a platter.Immediately I got down, I received Joe's call."Why are you calling when I just left your house?" I asked, teasingly. " I just want to know if you have arrived," he said." Don't be a nosy one. Derek is asking after....." He hung up the phone before I could finish talking, making me laugh. I knew just the perfect way to get on his nerves right now. Joe always had a way of making me feel better, feeling confident.When I got in, I didn't see anyone at the living room but I heard voices at the dining room and I headed there.I should have just gone into my room silently without any of them noticing. The three of them had already started eating and it hurt my heart to see that they looked like a family, the perfect family of three. Willing myself to hide my tears, I wanted to sneak back to my room but then Vince raised his head and saw me."Mommy! I was waiting for y
"It's dad," he replied, his voice shaking. "His sickness has gotten worse. They need to do surgery right away. They had to move us away from that hospital because it got too serious for them to solve."I felt all the color drain from my face. I knew that Dad had been in poor health for a while, but I had not realized things had gotten this serious, I thought we still had time to look for a plan. I tried to push the panic aside and think clearly."Okay, where is he now? What hospital are they taking him to?""We are at St. Mary's. They are preparing him for surgery as we speak."I could hear Mom's loud crying at the background. I also felt like crying but there was nothing I could do."Okay, I'm on my way. I'll see you there."I hung up the phone and turned to Vince, who had been watching me with concern."Mom, why do you looking so sad?" He asked."My daddy is sick. They are doing surgery on him right now. I have to go to the hospital."I did not know why I was telling him, I knew he u
Jason's PovI came home because I received a phone call, apparently that stupid woman had disappeared and no one knew where she was. Vince had been crying nonstop and he was on the verge of breaking into a fever. He was saying something about someone sick. Because he was crying, I couldn't figure out what he was saying well. Work has been stressful due to the new project we had going on. I could feel the vein in my forehead throbbing as I took painkillers to reduce my pains. "This damn woman, when she comes back, I will definitely kill her this time," I growled.I had gone angrily to my study because I have so many things to do but not after I made Vince stopped crying. I promised him that I was going to look for his mommy. I have been calling the woman and she didn't even pick my calls. This was so tiring. I couldn't even concentrate well on my work because I was worried about her.It wasn't until past midnight that I heard a knock on the door of my study."Come in" I had thought i
Violet's PovI sat in the hospital waiting room, anxiously tapping my foot against the floor. My father had been checked by numerous doctors for hours. Meanwhile, I was waiting for the call from Jason to tell me that the payment for the surgery had been processed. But the call never came. Neither did any alert.My mind raced with worry. How would I pay for my father's surgery? Jason was my last hope, was he going to help me with this? He was so unpredictable. Tears welled up in my eyes as I thought about the possibility of losing my father.Suddenly, I saw a doctor walking towards me. My heart was racing as I stood up to meet him. "Excuse me, doctor," I said, my voice trembling with worry. "Is everything okay with my father?"The doctor gave me a reassuring smile. "Your father has prepared well, his surgery has been assigned for tomorrow " he said. "But there's been a change in his case. Another doctor has taken over.""Surgery? Assigned for tomorrow?" I was shocked by the sudden news,
Jason's Pov"What was that?" I pushed Rachel off me and asked. We were not really doing anything bad. Rachel had come for a visit and we were just chatting when she started freezing up. Afraid, I thought a symptom from her illness had hit her. It was too sudden. Seeing how she was shivering and freezing up, I held her to offer some warmth and comfort.As we sat there, I admit that I could not help but think of all the times we had been in this position before, but with different emotions at play. We had broken up a few months ago, but seeing her like this made me forget all the reasons why we had ended things.Before I knew it, she had shifted again, this time settling on my lap, her head resting against my chest. I could feel her body trembling, and I held her tighter, hoping to offer some relief.A few minutes passed in silence, with the only sound being her soft breathing. I couldn't help but feel a sense of peace wash over me, with her in my arms like this. It was like nothing ha
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
