Violet’s POV
“I… I’m sorry,” I heard Jason say. His voice reached my ears vaguely. “Vaguely” because my senses were at their lowest. The only prominent sound that filled my ears was that which escaped my lips as shaky breaths. My eyes were clouded with hot tears effortlessly streaming down my cheek already.This revelation felt so sudden. To put more accurately, it felt like a knife. Plunged right through my back. I felt betrayed; anguished; torn apart; heartbroken! How could they?!The same people I considered family never bothered to reveal the truth to me until today. What were they thinking when they saw me stuff myself with lies all these years? How did he feel watching me with arms crossed as I took care of a child I always thought to be someone else’s while grieving my loss? Did it feel like the movies? Was there popcorn to go with it?“ Violet…” Jason’s pleading voice again pierced through the turmoil in my head that ravaged my sense of reasoJason's POVI ran outside hating how Violet had sounded, I knew my grandfather had his reasons for keeping Vince away from us but I would be a fool to ignore the nagging voice in my head telling me he kept it to himself for way too long. The air outside was less stiff, not as clouded with choking emotions from hidden truth, yet somehow felt just as horrible. I searched round for a familiar figure, that lovely hair colour, but nothing. She either wasn’t here or if she were, she must be very good at staying invisible.‘Shit’ I cursed seeing and feeling nothing but air slapping my bothered face. How did she even move that fast?I rushed the final steps to my car and hopped into the trusty bentley. Slamming my head a few times against the steering wheel, I couldn’t help but hate myself even more for being so stupid, I should have suspected something. Argh! where could she have gone? The mansion? Worth a try. Slamming on the accelerator, I drove full speed
Jason POVI pulled out the now crumpled piece of paper that would solidify whatever Violet had explained because if I were in the boy’s shoes, I would most definitely not believe shit. As if expecting it, Vince grabbed the paper immediately it left my pocket and skipped up the stairs yelling.“I’d make sure to keep it safe!” he said, just before we heard the sure slam of a door.Once Vince was gone, it was too hard to ignore that we were both alone now. The hallway had become so quiet that I was certain if the keys currently poking my thighs were to drop, it would sound like a fucking earthquake was taking over the hallway.“Val, I’m so sorry. I should have suspected something, should have been more vigilant, checked on you, made sure you were okay after…” I trailed off, not entirely sure it was a memory she’d like to revisit. I swallowed every reason to shut up.“You wouldn’t have had to go through all of that, or at the very least, not alone.” I rambled on, the guilt I felt overshad
Third povFlash backsGrandpa Gomez's hands settled on his desk as he scanned the document before him. His private investigator had been investigating the murder and it had been staged by a rival family and company; The Porter Hughes family.Grandpa was lucky he had his spies and investigators everywhere, he'd have been arrested instantly."They are planning to frame you for his murder." His private investigator said.He glanced up at him with eyes hard as rocks.He knew The Hughes hated his guts and were ruthless but to try and pin a murder on him was going too far too fast.They'd always been in competition in business and other areas but murder? That was going too far."Why?" Grandpa Gomez asked, his face contouring into an angry frown."My guess is as good as yours. Business," the man answered with a shrug.He'd been working for Grandpa Gomez for a while now and he had to admit that the Clarksville were a more sophisticated bunch than his other clients."Of course, Damn fucking
Third povFlash back.Three decades ago.Mr. Gomez was doing his usual bouts in the factory when his manager walked up to him."Gomez!" He called, looking enthusiastic.Mr. Gomez turned to look at the manager with a faint smile and eagerness. He was always grateful to this kind man. "Yes, Manager Rio?" He gave his full attention to his manager."The owner of the factory is here." Manager Rio whispered into his ears.There was a nervous look on Mr. Gomez's face which he tried to conceal. Then he heard manager Rio's next words. "He's going round and supervising, I put in a good word for you, don't blow it." Manager Rio advised him. Gomez nodded in appreciation."Thank you manager, I'll do my best." Gomez smiled and went on to do his job as naturally as he possibly could.Everyone in the factory knew he was the best supervisor in the factory and everyone's favorites too. Gomez had been dreaming of a promotion for a while now. He was making good money but he was an insatiable man. He
Third povGomez was filled with anger as he pulled himself from the ground and dusted himself clean.The man that had attacked him had been gone for five minutes straight. He'd only been able to stand up noy"Bastards." He groaned as he discovered they had actually broken his leg. He limped down the stairs.He didn't have a choice now. He had to leave or they'd kill him. He knew that the Porter Hughes family weren't people to mess around with.He knew pursuing anything further from their daughter will lead to his demise. If they could send thugs after him, they could definitely erase him from the world with just a snap of their fingers.With his hand on his waist and his face to the sky, his eyes watered just a little bit. The thought of leaving his lover broke his heart into pieces. He felt like someone was ripping his heart out with a sickle.Gomez took a deep, shaky breath and wiped the tears that had escaped his eyes and then schooled his facial features into an impassive mask."I
Jason's povI was filled with mixed emotions as my grandfather finished telling his story. Not only was I speechless, I was conflicted emotionally.I didn't know what or how I was supposed to feel about his story. It was a sad one. One that got progressively worse as he continued.Before I had come here, I had concluded on my hatred for him. He'd hurt me and Violet so bad that it couldn't possibly be forgiven. But now that I had heard Grandpa's story, I felt sad for him. I still hated his guts but the fact that the love of his life had been stolen right from under his nose simply because he was poor broke me.I couldn't imagine losing Violet, I couldn't even imagine being without her. I wouldn't survive it and I wouldn't want to. It wasn't my story but I felt empathy for him and at the same time, a deep sadness took over me and I felt the urge to smash something in that instant.Why was I so angry on his behalf? I wondered. The man was a repulsive man and he'd put Violet and I throug
Violet's pov.I stared down at Vince's sleeping form. I still had not gotten used to the fact that I was his biological mother. Of course I'd always felt the connection between us was more than just stepmother and stepson but never in my wildest dream did I think I could possibly be his biological mother. I was still mad at my father, in fact the mention of his name got me annoyed.He had betrayed me in the worst way and I couldn't possibly find it in me to even want to look at him. I still couldn't remember anything that had happened that year and the notion pissed me off. It pissed me off to know that my father had known about everything but had kept his mouth shut about it. It was the worst kind of betrayal.How could they have taken my free will from me just like that? Grandpa Gomez, I understood. He wasn't exactly a good man and he wasn't under any obligation to inform me but for my father to have kept it a secret too was unforgivable.I stroked Vince's hair, as he breathed ev
Violet Pov"The both of you are so sweet but in a silly way." I said with laughter in my voice.Jason climbed up the stairs, meeting me halfway. He smirked at me as soon as he got to me and without any warning, lifted me up from underneath my leg and carried me bridal style.I yelped as he did but he only laughed at me."Jason put me down!" I giggled."No, can't do my love. This is the right way to carry a princess after all, besides we have to hurry up." He said and took the stairs two by two."Thanks so much Charles for looking after him." I said once we were outside.Since it was such short notice we couldn't find a babysitter but Charles had volunteered to look after Vince."Anytime besides you said you made apple pie and muffins."I rolled my eyes at him."It's not as good as mom's.""Of course it's not but I'll take it anyway."I glared at him before he closed the door against our faces.We were at the skating rink in less than ten minutes.The place was surprisingly more packe
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
