Ethan’s P.O.V “Aaron has been found” The text on my phone read while I soon tossed it by my side when the door opened again and for a moment, I was ready to hurl the vase at whoever was at that door because I had thought that it was Nicholas. But when she stepped inside, my lips parted slowly as she stalked in looking tired and bedraggled. Her lashes swept up as her gaze met mine and in that moment, confusion swept my mind. The look in her eyes was inscrutable and a faltering smile formed on her face.“Junia” I called, getting up from the bed. I heard as she heaved a sigh before taking in a deep long breath. “Michaela…..” Her words trailed before a scoff left her lips.Just the mention of Michaela’s name caused the anger that had ebbed away, to surge inside of me again. My jaws clenched while I gripped her by the shoulders gently even though my grip around her was firm.“Why did you tell Nicholas about that event”She raised her head, staring deep into my eyes in a way that made m
Nicholas’s P.O.VI had barely gotten out of the hospital when I received a call from Pedro. As soon as I received that call, cold shivers ran down my spine because I knew that the only tangible reason behind him calling me was concerning Le Mort. I ignored the call, sliding my phone down my pocket. Was there a high chance that Lee Mort knew that something went wrong at the hospital?Did he make someone follow me? why was it starting to seem like he knew all my movements, all the people that I was meeting with? Now, this was going in a way that I didn’t expect.My phone rang again and this time, I was forced to answer the call. I pressed the phone to my ear and what I was welcomed with was a threat. “Le Mort wishes to know if you have a death wish”My fingers balled into fists as I squeezed my eyes shut in anger. “I am so tired of all of this” I mumbled before flicking my eyes open at the same time, forcing out a smile. “What do you mean? I didn’t mean to ignore the call, is anythi
Junia’s P.O.VI arrived at the entertainment company, taking in a deep breath and at the same time, praying that the CEO, Mark Walton, had changed his mind concerning terminating my contract.I even heard that he had offered millions of dollars just to sign Betty! That sly….. “I will convince him, he can’t just discard me because of a little scandal. I agree, it isn’t that little! How do I get out of this mess?” I muttered to myself, almost on the verge of tears.“If I seek help from my father, he would try to force me to get married to…..” My words trailed when the kiss with Ethan flashed through my head. In a fit of rage, I kicked the car because why in the world did thoughts about Ethan have to flash through my head? I was in the middle of a crisis, my career was at stake and yet he dared to interrupt through my memories?I cried, shaking my head. “I am going to be fine! I would find a way to convince Mark! I have done so many things in the past, I have always gotten what I wante
Ethan’s P.O.VI honked at Junia, disrupting the smug smile on her face as it transformed into a puzzled frown. Then slowly, her brows knitted in confusion and she approached the car with her arms behind her. Then she stopped, hesitating whether to enter the car or not! She even had no idea that I was the one in it. I lowered the car’s window, poking my head outside. “Junia” I called out to her while she remained in the same spot her lips parted slightly. Tilting her head to the side, she sauntered in my direction while I got out of the car. “Wait for a second, what are you doing here and how do you know that I am here? Shouldn’t you be at the hospital?” Her eyes peaked with curiosity. Even though she was trying to put on a bold font, I could see the glint of concern in her eyes. I pulled her into a tight hug while she attempted to wriggle free from me, I held on firmly to her, the earthly scent of her hair wafting through my nostrils, and the only thing that I wanted to do at th
Junia’s P.O.VEthan’s words lingered in my mind and the words that I had difficulties in deciphering became clearer to me when he led me towards the board room. I froze on the spot, stopping in my tracks as Aiden rushed towards us. “Where have you been? The directors have been waiting for you all along” He said and when his gaze clashed with mine, he darted his eyes back to Ethan. “What is she doing here?”At that moment, I attempted to remove my hands from Ethan’s but Ethan turned to look at me, his face beaming with a smile. “I want her to experience something. She has to witness the beginning of a new dawn”Aiden’s brows knitted and I could see the confusion that was evident on his face. “I don't get you but it is time for you to go inside, Theo and Dashiell are also present”I muttered under my breath, pulling Ethan towards me. “There is no reason for me to be there. I would just lurk around in your office”Aiden glanced at me and there was just something about Aiden that I didn
Ethan’s P.O.VMichaela blinked her eyes continuously before running her hands through her hair frustratedly. “What are you talking about? Why are you suddenly making mention of going to jail? Is it because the directors considered me to be the better candidate?”“You are jealous of your little sister so badly that you want me to end up in jail”My fingers squeezed into folds. How did she turn out to be this heartless? How could she be that brazen and how could she even stare at me right in the eyes when she knew that she was betraying me?No conscience!No Remorse!She was deplorable. It just didn’t make any sense that my sister whom I loved so much that I was willing to ignore her mistakes would do something like that to me. She scoffed. “Anyways, you have done a great job and it is now time for me to take over. I promise you that this company will be number one! I would take the company to heights that it has never reached before”Her words caused me to laugh as I leaned in the c
Junia’s P.O.VThe plan to remove Ethan from his position as the CEO was thwarted, and finally, Michaela was taken into custody. Who would ever believe that she would have done something as horrendous and despicable as that?Well, what was I expecting from the same person who didn’t only attempt to poison me but also had the temerity to poison her brother just because she wanted to take over his position?One by one, I watched as the directors left, leaving only Aiden, Ethan, and me.I watched as Ethan and Aiden conversed, and soon my mind strayed toward something that had occurred between Michaela and me at the board meeting.When Michaela locked eyes with me, something was alarming about the way she stared at me in a way that I found to be eerie.At that very moment, she mouthed. “Briella!”Why would Michaela suddenly mention Briella’s name at a meeting that wasn't even related to her? There was just something about the way that she talked which I didn't find to be only bothersome bu
Junia’s P.O.VI turned slowly, swinging my head in Aiden’s direction with my brows furrowing in confusion. At that moment, I wondered how long he had been listening to the conversation between me and Ethan since he wasn’t inside all along.Ethan arched a brow to the left, staring intently at him. “Is there anything wrong with that? Now that I think about it, you have been acting strange these days. Don’t forget that you told me that you didn’t want the position!”Aiden forced out a smile. “Really? Did I say that”Ethan exchanged fleeting glances with me before he shrugged as his shoulders slumped. “I don’t understand you anymore cousin. I have always wanted to give you this position and you declined numerous times. I don’t mean to be harsh but what exactly is your problem?”Aiden ran his hands through his hair, forcing out an awkward laughter. “There is nothing wrong. I was just out of it for a second, I wanted to do a jump scare…..” His words trailed before he finally said. “I guess t
