When Sasha and I arrived home that evening after walking around all day, we put up an act pretending to be at odds. And just as expected Gina appeared to be loving the show meanwhile I was almost dying from laughter on the inside. Oh, how easy it was to fool her.

At least I was thankful that I had a friend now, some one to confide in. Ever since that day I haven't set my eyes on Ruth. I suddenly remembered that I had purchased a car that day, along with my belongings that were forgotten. I knew I would have to go back for them sooner or later, but first I must prepare my mind.

I walked into the room with a yawn but was however forced to pause mid air upon finding Cameron sprawled across the bed. He eyed me distastefully before proceeding to question my whereabouts, "where have you been?" In that deep husky tone that let me know he's about to snap.

I was at the verge of panic until it hit me that he was present this morning when Gina asked me to show Sasha around.

    I was shocked when he moved closer to me cradling my sobbing form, this caused me to cease crying and look up and him but Cameron's attention was directed elsewhere as he slowly rubbed my back. "I didn't mean to be harsh but the truth is I'm the one who got you into this mess." He admitted with a sigh, "if we weren't married neither of those women would be after you. While he wasn't wrong, I have never for once blamed him. I wanted to tell him that it was fine and we would eventually pull through this but it seemed like he wasn't done talking yet. "I'd hate myself if something happened to you."That took me by surprise and even caused my heart to skip a bit, not only was he worried about me he was also admitting it to my face. I couldn't help but notice that he seems a bit off today, but I'm not complaining it seems to be a good thing rather. "And I'm not saying this because I'm in love with you or anything." His voiced filled the air once, and I chuckled barely holding myself bac

    "What would I ever do without you?" Cameron exclaimed, it felt as though he was exaggerating. I couldn't seem to understand the source of his happiness, yet I pretended to be happy with him. Done swinging me around I was released back to my position while he stared at me with a huge grin. "Why are you so excited anyway?" I couldn't believe he had forgotten our moment together, honestly it left me slightly pissed but still I felt relieved that the story turned out to be false. I don't know what I would've done if it were to be true. "You do not seem to understand the gravity of the situation at hand." Cameron spoke, "with the accusations levelled against me, no doubt my reputation would go down in smoke except you have saved me from that harsh fate."He seemed really grateful, I could tell the smile on his face was genuine. "So what will you do next?""Prove my innocence of cause!"Just as I had expected him to respond, "I would love to stay back and hear more about how you plan to a

    The room was in disarray but it didn't take long for everyone to get into position. I saw a middle aged woman approach, joining us on the high table, and even though I was sitting down on Cameron's lap that didn't deter her from winking at him. I turned my face to the front pretending not to notice. Soon they commenced filming, she questioned Cameron about his recent scandal, he seemed eager to accept the question but what I didn't know was that he would push me to the war front."My wife here can explain what happened that night." He said with a proud smirk on his face, suddenly everyone's attention was focused on me. I froze momentarily trying to piece my thoughts together. Nervous as I was I knew I had to do this, in order to prove his innocence. I won't leave my husband alone to the wolves, so I wiped my sweaty palms against the skirt I had on preparing myself to speak. "We we're together that night.. at home." My voice was barely audible. The woman appeared confused as if she

    Just when I thought he was finally going to bring down his walls and open up to me, he turned his face away leaving me feeling disappointed. But I chose not to voice out my thoughts, with a man like Cameron taking baby steps is what is needed. A week ago we weren't here, surely by the next one we'll be somewhere different. Without saying a word to me he kickstarted the engine zooming off in an instant. I couldn't help but notice that all through the ride he appeared troubled, it made want to give him a hug but I kept still. Suddenly a honk from the side caused me to jump in my seat, placing a hand over my beating heart. I shot my gaze outside the window to see where the commotion had emerged from. To my surprise it was no other than Cecilia, chilling in a sports red car that I found to appear oddly familiar. Upon putting pieces together I was struck with disbelief, surely that could not be my car right?She rolled down her sunglasses blowing Cameron a kiss. He had a not so welcomin

    “And why shouldn’t I?” I stepped forward with my chest pushed forward as if say that I wasn’t intimidated when in reality I was trembling on the inside. “If you and your husband are being stalked by his crazy ex, I’m sure you would be curious and eventually go to do some digging.” There was no reason to hide that I had done my homework on her, didn’t she do the same thing? I trailed my eyes towards Cameron and found him staring at me in amazement.He must probably be wondering where I had gotten the courage from, I’m used to being bullied by his mother and sister anyway. I could just endure waiting for it to be over, except this time I’m not dealing with his family member but rather an ex girlfriend.Unable to take it anymore I watched as she charged toward me, but I was one step ahead of her, quick to dodge and grab her ponytail from behind. She ended up missing a step, I found that to be the perfect opportunity and let go of my hold. This caused her to fall flat on her face, smacki

    By time we got home I was exhausted, headed for the bed to crash but unknown to me Cameron had other plans. He snuck up on me from behind, lifting me off the ground as he swung my tiny frame around the room vigorously.Caught by surprise I couldn’t help but scream, except this did nothing to deter him. I was starting to feel dizzy when I felt him place me on the ground. From the expression on his face I could tell that he was excited, and I failed to understand the source of his happiness. Was it truly because I stood up to Cecilia back there?“You’re probably wondering why.” He said breaking the silence. “I’ve never met someone who could make Cecilia lose her ability to speak, but you did it so effortlessly it’s amazing.” Pausing for a moment, I could see his eyes roam through my body. “I didn’t peg you to be the type.”Somehow those words managed to upset me deeply, “is it because I let your mother and sister walk over me is that why you think I’m a pushover?”I saw his expression s

    I watched her hands go up as if she’d hit me again, this caused me to close my eyes waiting for the harsh sting of her palm on my cheek but it never came. Instead, I felt a presence before me, like an armor protecting me from danger, Cameron was standing there holding his mother’s hand up in the air.The reaction on her face was so priceless that I almost could not keep myself from bursting into a laughing fit but I told myself to hold it in, not wanting to create more problems.“And what do you think you’re doing?” Gina asked with anger blazing in her eyes.“I should be the one asking you that.” His deep tone travelled along the corridor, “what do you think you’re doing to my wife?”Thank god his back was hidden from me if not he’d see me blushing like a fool right now. Her confused expression soon transformed into a wicked smile as she parted her lips to speak, “I’m only teaching her what’s right and how to be a proper lady so she doesn’t go out there one day and put mud on our nam

    “I would like to have a word with you Avery.” Gina’s words sliced through the air as soon as breakfast was over. “And don’t worry, there shall be no violence.” She assured directed towards Cameron who looked like he wanted to say something. In the end that shut him up, although I felt reluctant, curiosity took the larger part of me.Eventually I ended up following her to the kitchen trailing in after her. My heart skipped a beat as I watched her lock the door. What would be her reason for doing that? Does she plan to murder me without anyone noticing? Several thoughts skittered across my mind.Gina seemed to notice my unease and said, “I’m sorry that I make you feel uncomfortable.”I couldn’t believe my ears, is she apologizing to me right now? I noticed that she did appear remorseful, unlike the wicked expression she usually carries around. But still that doesn’t prove anything, she could be a great actor for all I know.“I wanted my son to get married to someone who’d make up for h

    “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you.” She said in a broken tone drawing closer to me but I took a step back.“I was going to tell you truth when everything is settled, believe me Avery I didn’t mean to hurt you this way.”But I couldn’t get myself to believe her a second time, “you were aware that I couldn’t remember anything yet you chose to lie to me.” I felt so betrayed that I couldn’t get myself to look at her, I had my suspicions at first but after she saved me I chose to trust her. I can’t believe her father was responsible and she knew all this while and chose to keep it from me. Just like Cameron did, why do they all protect their fathers even though they’re not good people?“I never lied to you, yes my father is guilty but he didn’t do it alone. Colton is his accomplice, you can’t absorb him of blame.”I turned to Colton who seemed to be enjoying the situation at hand, before I could get the words out he beat me to it, saying, “I did covet your father’s company an

    Despite’s Kylie’s warning I find myself wanting to go with him, though I can tell he’s up to something, how else would I find out if I don’t pretend to play along? But Kylie is holding my arm preventing me from a taking a step forward, “don’t do this.” She pleads in a desperate tone, seeming anxious.I turn to Colton, “can she come along?” No doubt with her presence I would feel more safe but before Colton can utter a word Kylie refuses.“I’m not going anywhere near him,” she spat venomously, “even now my skin is crawling in disgust, let’s go Avery. It’s no use listening to him.”But even though I’d like to hear him out, after all I’ve only listened to one side of the story.“It’s not surprising that you act this way,” Colton says, “did you have fun feeding her lies? What? Afraid that I’d expose them?”“What lies?” I ask Kylie but she doesn’t respond, there’s a bitter look on her face as she avoids my gaze. It’s clear she’s keeping something from me. “I can explain,” she finally say

    For the longest time possible, I restrained myself from looking back. However, it soon became unbearable, and I was forced to retract my decision much to my dismay. When I turned around Cameron was no longer behind me. I don’t know why, but this made me upset. I had no strength in me to move further.With my heart rapidly, I leaned against the wall, hoping to catch a break. I spotted two couples walking down the sideways hand in hand, jealousy clouded my vision as I struggle to look awayWhy am I so thirsty for his love? I honestly don’t understand it.I had to gather all my strength to say those words to him and right now I’m the one who is in pain although he didn’t seem to take it too well either I know a man like him won’t be heartbroken for long after all doesn’t he have a mistress back at home?Images of them in bed flash through my brain, and I could not bear the hurt. I crouched down holding on to my racing heart threatening to explode. Suddenly I found myself regretting my de

    I can feel the pain in his voice, his messy appearance further adds to my strain. I want to embrace him and say all is fine but I can’t seem to move my feet, deep down I’m still upset but I find myself feeling bad for him.What is this called? No idea.“Say something Avery.” Cameron nudges me back to life.My eyes trail up as I draw in a deep sigh, “honestly I don’t know what to say, my heads a mess right now. I want you to leave me alone at the same time I don’t.” I say truthfully even though my heart is racing rapidly, I crave for him to be closer. As if reading my thoughts, Cameron steps forward closing the space between us. He gazes upon me softly, In that moment my world goes still and it feels like there’s only two of us under the vast sky. A tear rolls down my cheek and he wipes it off causing me to shudder, but I don’t push him away secretly enjoying it. Even though my face shows no hint of happiness, because my heart is heavy. “I didn’t realize it back then but what I did

    I don't know why but my first instinct was to run, immediately I laid my eyes on him I descended into a hot chase. I could hear my name being yelled from a distance yet I did not care to look behind.Why am I even running? It's not like I've done anything wrong. In this case I'm the victim, the assailant is his father. If so, what does that make him?I don't know, but I wish there was a way I could find out.Right now I feel lost and confused, I don’t know who or what to believe. Is Kylie telling the truth? Did Cameron really treat me that way? If truly he doesn’t love me why is he running behind me looking like a mess.Though I don’t dare to turn back I feel his eyes on my back, I know he is chasing after me. A part of me wants to stop and confront him on what I’ve heard and another part wants to keep running, too ashamed to face him. Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my knees causing me to slip and fall, it doesn’t take seconds for Cameron to catch up to me. “Are you okay?” He quest

    Finally everything made sense, no wonder Colton is so eager to find me. He must be under so much tension right now, I can’t imagine what would happen if the documents eventually falls into his hands. That would give him enough shares to overthrow Cameron, and I don’t want to see that happen. “But the thing is, no one knows where the documents are.” Kylie said breaking me from my thoughts. “Perhaps the old Avery might have an idea not you.” She sighed tiredly and I couldn’t help but agree. We’re just as clueless as Colton in this situation, neither of us knows where to begin search from.“You mentioned those shares have been untouched for a while now, honestly I don’t think the old Avery would know.” I say, “wasn’t I maid in the past? If I knew I had so much money lying around, why would I choose to serve others?”She turned her face away from me and scoffed, “I know you well Avery, there’s nothing you wouldn’t do for that man. I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that you knew but dec

    “I don’t think it’s just for you to accuse him like that.”Even though I couldn’t remember, I had a feeling that Cameron wasn’t that bad. I couldn’t resist the urge to defend him. Didn’t I hate him a while ago? What’s happening now. She drew in a deep sigh, “you’re so stupid Avery I can’t believe we are friends.”“Says you,” I rolled my eyes, “I don’t even know who you are, do you think it’s right to accuse my husband in such a manner.”“I’m only trying to help you, what don’t you understand!”“Well if you’re trying to help me stop accusing him without having concrete evidence.”She paused for a moment rolling her eyes through me, “I can tell you don’t believe me, but look into your heart, the memories are in there somewhere.”“I don’t care about those darn memories!” I screamed out loud. Right now the only person I want to see is him, even though he’s one of the reasons why I’m miserable. It feels like only he can alleviate my pain right now.“Listen to me woman!” Kylie grabs my s

    Jake drove us to a fancy hotel in town, as the car came to a halt I alighted ready to walk in when I saw the words CMN boldly written ahead. Turning to face Kylie, “isn’t it Cameron’s?”She smiled back at me and replied, “indeed it is but it won’t be for long.”However that was the least of my concerns right now, even after learning that Colton robbed my family of everything we owned, reclaiming the stolen properties was the last thing on my mind right now. What I desire is to lock him behind bars forever. “Don’t you think it’s risky staying here? What if he finds me? Also I have no money, I can’t afford a place like this.” Pausing to look at her, “and I don’t think you can either.”I only took out little from what Cecilia had given me, the rest was carefully tucked away underneath the bed. Who knew that the motel would catch fire and everything would burn to ashes, now I’m cashless with two mouths to feed. Going to the bank isn’t even an option when I can barely remember my own d

    Just as I was preparing to attack I heard a commotion outside which created a distraction as both men craned their neck to the direction the sound had emerged from while the woman continued to focus of the babies, I couldn’t help but notice how tender and soft she was with them.She didn’t look as bad as the other two, I made a mental note to say a word of gratitude when I finally made it out of here. “Go check what’s happening.” Chubby said to skinny who seemed a bit reluctant but eventually turned walking towards the exit.As the man walked away, he turned to face me, I could see the warning in his eyes. “Don’t you dare attempt anything funny, now tell me where you have hidden the documents.”As I opened my mouth to speak there was a loud bang resembling a gun shot, he quickly scurried to the ground for safety while the woman hid away in a corner. There came another shot, I knew I couldn’t just seat still and wait for them to get to me. Without much effort I easy broke away from t
