Violet's POVI tried regaining my breath as Jason had choked me terribly. Staring at Rachel who had an innocent look on her face only made me angry. She was a liar, pretender and wouldn't stop at anything just for her selfish reason. It was hard believing that she would separate the siblings just for her to achieve her aim. Wondering how Clara would be feeling now, she really loved her brother and only wanted the best for him.Rachel was slowly eliminating everyone just to get Jason. I wish I could just disappear from everything that was happening. I paced around the room thinking of a way to expose her evil deeds. At least if not for me but for Clara's sake. I wouldn't want her to be at variance with her brother again. If care wasn't taken, Rachel would do something worse and might even get Vince out of the way. I knew I had to find a way to expose Rachel soon so that I would be free from Jason. I don't know if it's obsession or he just loves to see me unhappy. He should have kn
The day went by fast as usual as I headed back home very tired. Vince was already home and ran to give me an embrace upon my arrival. Of everything in this house, this was the only person that gave me solace. "How are you, baby?” I asked him as I threw lots of kisses on his face making him giggle. "I'm not a baby anymore, mommy. I'll be turning five soon," He said with a pout.I laughed at him. He must have learnt that with his friends."If you are not a baby, what then are you?" I asked him, smiling." I'm a big man mommy and I'm here to protect you," he said firmly.He even showed me his arm, that he was growing muscles and I couldn't help burst into laughter.I noticed someone's shadow and I raised my head only to see Rachel scowling at me. I was honestly not in the mood for her attitude this evening, so I ignored her presence. But not Vince."Momma, that aunty looks scary. Why does dad keep her in the house?" He asked, pointing at Rachel." You little brat!" Rachel cursed, fumin
Narrator's POV As Jason was at the office talking to his best friend, his mind wasn't at rest and he already told his personal assistant to find someone who will trace Violet to wherever she's taking the money to. He knew if she escaped before he got home, he would need to start looking for her.He wasn't concerned about the money but about her leaving. He couldn't even concentrate on his friend that he was talking to. He was so happy to see his friend but the news he got about Violet's withdrawal got him destabilized. Jason was still contemplating on her whereabouts when his spy told him Violet went home. He immediately canceled all his meetings and gave instructions to Alex before he headed home. His friend wanted to follow him but he had told him he could handle it. His friend knew every single detail about Violet but he didn't want him to meet her now.He couldn't believe that what he heard from the person was true. How will she withdraw money and just head home? He was in so
Jason's POVI groaned for the hundredth time, dropping the pile of paper which I was holding. “What's up?” Ben asked. Ben was a new investor in my company, fortunately, we had few things in common so we blended together almost becoming like friends. “Family issues,” I simply replied, earning a chuckle from him. “Who doesn't have family issues, it's like a phase of one's life,” Ben replied with a laugh, making me force a smile. “Are you still on about your forced wife?” I asked him, earning a scowl for a response. Unlike me that forced a woman to marry me, Ben was my opposite. He was forced into his marriage, he has avoided his new wife as far as he could. He says he would never accept her as his wife. “Maybe you should just give her a try,” I suggested. Ben was about to reply to me when my table phone rang."What?" I asked my secretary.I've been quite harsh to everyone around me for days now. Even Alex, who knows how to do his job well, annoys me these days. How would I not
Jason's POVI angrily stared at Rachel who was fuming. What was wrong with her and why would she talk to me like that?“And what's that supposed to mean, Rachel?” I asked her with a raised eyebrow. "Violet is my legal wife, are you questioning my actions in my home?” I asked her angrily as her demeanor started to soften.“I didn't mean it that way…” Rachel started stuttering. “I meant why didn't you come up to rest,” she said, changing the narratives. Glaring at her for a long time. “This shouldn't repeat itself, I don't appreciate being questioned in my own home,” I said before angrily storming out.Rachel had ruined my mood and the whole atmosphere. All through my bath, I couldn't get Violet's image off my head.“What's all this about?” I asked myself. I felt strange, trying to shake off the feeling seemed almost impossible. Putting on a lighter outfit, I went back downstairs to meet Violet feeding Vince. I moved closer to them and gave a little frown. Violet saw me and chuckl
Jason's POVI rushed home immediately after the meeting ended, I needed all the rest I could get. Honestly, that wasn't the main reason but I couldn't agree with myself. Getting home, I noticed she hadn't arrived from work. Hissing internally, I went to my room and changed into something casual. I had something to tell her but she seems not to be back from work. Deciding to take a stroll around the compound, I got to the dining section only to see a mini-dinner set ready. I stared confused at the sight in my presence. “I am sorry,” I read out from the sticky paper on the table.I knew I wasn't angry with Violet before going. Even if I was, I was sure that she wouldn't do this. One she can't cook, two she wouldn't even apologize to me. "Who could have done this and what's this about?” I asked myself internally. Dropping the sticky note, I noticed Rachel's presence and I turned to her. “I am sorry, Jason. You know I wouldn't do anything to upset you,” Rachel said, reaching out to
Violet's POVVince and I sat in the dining room as Jadon served us our meals. “Thank you,” I appreciated his gestures. Taking a few spoons, I couldn't deny how the meal tasted great. “Are you sure the chef didn't help you with any of this?” I asked him with a raised eyebrow, earning hearty laughter from him. “Are you saying I lack culinary skills, I just don't have time to. I am such a good cook.” Jason said, making me smile at him. “The food is splendid!” I praised."Of course it was cooked by me, not by someone else," he said with pride.I knew he was talking to me and I raised my nose at him. " Must you insult me?" I asked glaring at him. " I didn't mention any name, " he chuckled with a mocking look.I gritted my teeth at him."Mommy, don't worry, you are the best," Vince said to me. The room was silent again as we munched our food. But the arrival of Rachel stirred an emotion in me but I ignored her. “You didn't invite me to eat, seriously Jason!” she said with a fake sm
Jason's POVI dragged her to a nearby room as I held her mouth, motioning her to be quiet. After noticing she was ready to listen, I removed my hands which I placed on her mouth."Are you crazy?” Violet asked with wide eyes as she gazed everywhere. “Why did you drag me like that? What’s up with the room?” She asked not even allowing me to answer her first question.“Yes, I am crazy,” I told her as she rolled her eyes angrily. “I want to take you elsewhere, the party is boring,” I told her. Lately, I had this feeling of taking her everywhere with me. It was slowly becoming an obsession. Trying to rectify the mistake, I had decided to stay distant but the kiss made me realize I wasn’t doing myself anything good. I needed Violet.You can call it lust or whatever. Maybe after the sex, I will stop thinking about her. My mind was occupied with her thoughts and it became more than alarming. I stared at her lips as she argued back and forth with me. For some reason, she seems angry with
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
