Paige:A Second Chance Romance Forty five -Jace
Jace's POVI sat in my car patiently waiting for a man I have never even met, he texted in the wee hours of the morning asking me to meet him here alone and that he has vital information about Alvin, I know it was dumb of me to actually follow his orders without questions but right now I am as desperate as I can be,"I didn't think you would show up" I heard someone say from the passenger seat's window making me turn,"And you are?" I asked my guard fully up,"Exactly who you are looking for" he replied with a dark chuckle that suddenly made me feel quite uneasy,"That is not an answer" I threw at him trying to remain patient,"It wasn't meant to be" he smirked,"How did you even get my number?" I asked one of the numerous questions I had piled up,"You are really the wrong questions you know" he replied a sinister smile on his face that unnerved me,"Do not fucking play games with me" I lashed out anger slowly filling my bones,"Calm down son, it is just me" another voice spoke up t
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Prologue
Paige's POV Six Years AgoI couldn't hold back my tears as I realized that the only boy I let into my life would be the same person to break me,"You can't deny everything just like that, not after everything we have been through" I cried, trying to fight the truth that was staring at me,His lazy gaze fell on me slowly from where he stood a dark look in his eyes I had never seen before,"Well, watch me, Paige, and point of correction we have not been through anything together but it was fun playing with you though" he shot, I could feel my heart shattering into so many tiny pieces at his words,"We need to do something about this baby, our baby" I yelled, letting the tears stream down my face,"Your baby, not ours" he coldly retorted, crashing down on the sofa behind him as if the gravity of our situation weighed nothing on him," You are not really expecting me to kill our child, right?" I questioned already dreading his answer, he had already me

Paige's POV"Alex, time for breakfast or mummy is going to be late for work," I yelled out to my son from the kitchen as I tried to make something for breakfast,"I can't find my other shoe," he whined in response, not again,"Are you sure you dropped it properly?" I asked as I hurriedly put the few pancakes on the plates and prepared tea for Alex, It was no news to both of us that he didn't know how to keep his stuff properly and even if he did, he wouldn't remember where he put them,“Found it, Mum” he yelled back after a few minutes, earning a little chuckle from me,“Okay then, come down for breakfast” I replied,"I'm here, mum," he said from the door, making me look up from what I was doing with a small smile on my face,"Come sit and have your breakfast," I cooed, pulling out a chair for him; I was so going to be late for work; it's not something new anyway."Mum," Alex called out lowly, making me turn to him,"Is there a problem, love?"I asked concerned,"No...it's just tha
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Two-Paige
Paige's POV I tucked Alex into bed, kissing his cheeks and forehead before turning off the lights and leaving the door open, just in case he woke up later on. As I walked out, I sighed tiredly, running my hand through my hair. Today was really hectic, and I am very grateful to have actually made it through if the pounding of my head doesn't count as anything. After a quick shower, I put on a comfortable black shirt and loose shorts, the perfect fit for bed. I reviewed the work I had left unfinished since I had to pick Alex up from school, reminding me that I needed to hire a nanny to help me both physically and emotionally, it would reduce the eyes on me a little, I just hope she doesn't charge much. I don't think I can handle that right now, but at the same time, I can't keep enduring the harsh comments from people who were growing suspicious of my denial about my son. I woke up really late, realizing I was running behind schedule. I quickly showered and dressed in a professional p
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Three-Paige
Paige's POVGood news is I finally found a nanny, turns out the lady from the cafe actually took the job and she seems nice enough so I think Alex will love herNow that's off my list I have to find a way to finish the extra work I was given because Vanessa practically ditched work today I have to do everything all alone, it's already past 9, and I still have a lot to do, why on earth can't he just assign someone to help me, he is definitely doing this on purpose and it isn't fair.The office phone rang bringing me back to reality with a sigh I picked the call,"Can you bring me a cup of coffee, Miss Moretti" Grayson said through the phone, sounding just as tired as I am?"On my way" I said simply, as much as Grayson doesn't treat me so well I still tend to pity him or should I say care for him as an employee, he works his ass off day and night just to make sure his family is comfortable and happy, I found out few months ago that his wife is a cancer patient and is somewhere off in It
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Four-Jace
Jace's POV "Sir your meeting starts in 30 minutes" I heard someone say from the door, making me sit up from my seat as the bimbo on my laps fell to the ground due to her lack of warning,"Ok then, inform Jay and Brandon we will be leaving in 10 minutes" I said in a gruff voice, and she nodded before hurrying out, and now she just killed my mood,"Get up and get out" I told the bimbo that I don't know her name, no surprise there it's difficult remembering any of their names,"Wait, what?" She asked looking all confused and by the way, still on the ground, is she waiting for me to help her up or something because if she is, then she should get ready to clean the floors then,"You heard me" I said, facing the files in my table that needed my attention,"We haven't completed what we started" she said trying to sound sexy, but it just pissed me off the more,"Don't let me repeat myself, Janet" I said trying to keep my cool, though I was getting really impatient with her,"My name is Britt
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Five-Jace
Jace’s POV"You guys go ahead I am right behind you" I said to Brandon and Jay as we got to our destination,"Are you good?" Brandon asked noticing my new profound foul mood,"Yea" I shrugged him off, I sat in the car for a few minutes talking deep breaths while trying to clear my head before walking into the company,"Time to get this over with" I muttered as I got to the receptionist, she quickly directed to where the elevator was saying someone will be there to take me to the conference room, but I didn't miss the once over she gave me, well, most females look at me like walking sex god so nothing new there,"I'm Vanessa Sir, nice to meet you" an overly excited woman said as soon as the elevator door opened, I fought the urge to roll my eyes at her and just nodded saying she should lead the way,"Mr. Grayson will be with you shortly" I heard someone say from where I guess is the conference room, but that voice, it sounds.... familiar, the door opened before I could ask the lady in
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Six-Paige
Paige's POV"Paige, my office now" Grayson said over the phone, making me sigh, what's the problem now,"You called?" I said as I got to Grayson's office,"Take a seat" he said with a gloomy look that confirmed my suspicions, something was definitely wrong,I stared at the ground waiting for Grayson to say something, anything but instead the tension in the air just increased and so did my curiosity,"Uhm... Is something wrong?" I asked when I realized Grayson wasn't going to say anything,"You're fired" he finally whispered, not looking at me, but I didn't need him to speak any louder I heard him very loud and clear, I couldn't say anything, so I just stared, this can't be happening to me......not now just when I thought things were starting to get better,"I am sorry Paige, I really am, but my hands are tied" he said, making me scoff angrily,"Last I checked, the company was yours, your hands can't be tied you just want me out so badly" I said with so much bitterness in my tone, but

Paige's POVMum has been crying non-stop since we got back, I have tried everything but she won't even let me into her room, she dashed off immediately her shock wore off without saying a word, we had to take her home since she didn't know her way around and insisted she would not be going back into the office for any meeting,"How are you feeling ?" Lisa asked after a moment of silence, luckily she called right in time so I just vented out to her,"My feelings right now are not my priority, besides how am I expected to feel, he hurt my mother not me so that question should be directed at her" I answered like I was stating facts,"You know that's not true, he is your father, whom you never met or talked to even for one day, and twenty-one years later you coincidentally meet him while searching for your son, his grandchild, I know you should feel some sort of anger and resentment but is there no curiosity to want to hear his side of the story, to want to get to know him, you know to fi

Paige's POV"Paige, please you have to understand it was a mistake"Jace repeated for the umpteenth time since the incident the day before,"You know I don't really care right, nothing about your life is my business, I just want to find my child and take care of my children together, I have nothing to say to you" I lied in a monotone voice pulling my box out from my room, to be honest, I have not been able to get the incident out of my head, the child is the same age with the twins meaning he actually cheated on me before that day, so he rejected his children because of another woman, everything is clearer now,"Please don't say that Paige, it's your business, it has always been your business" he pleaded trying to help with my box,"I would appreciate it if you would let me," I said pulling the box out of his reach,"Paige please, you have to understand I didn't hurt you intentionally" he kept on begging,"Who said you hurt me?, look you can do all of this for whoever is interested to

Catherine's POV I stood in front of his house contemplating my next actions ignoring the rain pouring heavily on me, I knew the damage I had caused but I had no other option,"You should come in or you will catch a cold, he is in his room by the way "Cindy his secretary advised from the front door, she seemed to have noticed I had been standing out here for quite some time now, It wasn't much of a surprise meeting her here since he had not been in the office for some days,"Thank you, I will be in shortly" I replied nervously, she nodded before heading back inside, I took a few deep breaths before following suit making sure to take off my wet shoes before going in.I stood in front of his room door prepping myself before I finally knocked, I waited for a few minutes without a reply then I took the bold step of going in,"What are you doing here?" He spoke up harshly his voice echoing in the dark room startling me a little,"And I don't remember asking you to come in," he said again
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Forty one-Jace
Jace's POV"Mum really wants you to visit, you have not come to see her since that day" Jay started as we discussed over a bottle of drink,"I will be there tomorrow before I travel" I informed him taking a sip of my drink,"Travel?" Jay asked confused, apparently he had gone MIA since our last conversation and decided to pop into my house in the middle of the day requesting that we discuss,"Yes, Paige and I need to go to New Zealand" I explained,"Don't tell me you guys are going on honeymoon before you even get engaged" He joked earning a shove from me,"It's nothing of that kind, I don't even see Paige wanting to date me anytime from now not to think about marriage so get your mind out of the gutter" I replied rolling my eyes,"I know you want that" he suddenly said his tone becoming serious,"Want what?" I asked feigning innocence,"Oh please, everyone sees the way you look at her, the longing is very evident" he scoffed," I messed up big time, it's not so easy to just act like
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Fourty-Paige
Paige's POV"Alex, are you okay?" I asked frantic looking around his body for any sign of blood,"I'm fine Mummy but I am scared" he said in a shaky voice trying to pull me closer to him, I pulled him closer placing a kiss on his forehead. Glancing around everyone looked quite shaken up by the sudden gunshot but no one looked injured,"Who got shot?" Jace finally spoke up springing to action, he picked up his phone probably calling the police or maybe an ambulance but I couldn't take my eyes off the broken window by the side, the person knew exactly where everyone was and it didn't look like a missed shot,"Mr.Thomas??" Lisa suddenly called out in a shaken voice making everyone turn to him,"I'm really sorry, Paige" he muttered as blood pooled from his mouth, that was when I noticed his bloody left hand clutched to his stomach like his life depended on it,"Fuck, call an ambulance Jace" I cursed out, he can't die, he is supposed to help me find my child,"I know you hurt me but you do
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Thirty nine -Paige
Paige's POV"What does that even mean?" Lisa asked this time around like she read my mind,"The twins turn seven this year right?" he asked although it seemed like he already had his answer,"Yes, why?" I answered skeptically ignoring the sudden fear that gripped me,"The person who contracted me six years ago reached out to me last night, he wants him dead at all cost" he said as my insides dropped at the thought,"Are you trying to say my grandchild is going to be murdered?" Mum asked in horror,"Yes ma'am" he answered staring at the ground like it could open up and swallow him,"What do you mean by the person who contracted you six years ago?" I asked his words replaying in my head, nothing seemed to be making sense right now, nothing seemed to be adding up and I didn't like it one bit,"I know I don't deserve any forgiveness of any kind but I am willing to work for it, anything at all I would do to make it up" he answered getting me angrier,"I would advise you to drop this forgiv

Paige's POVI cannot continue like this, I have to get to the bottom of this, everything in me knows this is more than a dream,"Mummy" Alex called out walking into my room,"Are you okay?" I questioned turning to face him,"I am fine" he answered laying beside me and burying his face in my neck,"Are you sure?" I asked again, he had this look that I couldn't exactly ignore,"Something is off" he finally blurted after a moment of silence,"What do you mean?" I asked pulling him closer," I keep having this weird dream, maybe it's just me" he replied sounding tired,"Talk to mummy" I pressed on,"I keep seeing another me" he answered shocking me,"Another you" I muttered more to myself than to him, I knew it was more than a dream, something was not adding up.~~~~~~~~~"Paige, Paige, Paige" Jace called out with so much urgency in his voice I actually got scared,"In here" I replied from Alex's room where I was able to put him to sleep,"Someone is here to see you," he said as he walked
Paige:A Second Chance Romance Thirty seven-Jace
Jace's POVPaige has not been herself since the day I woke her up from the bad dream she had, she won't tell anyone what the dream was about, but she wouldn't stop crying,"Dinner is ready, are you coming down or should I send your food up for you?" I asked from her door watching her emotionless face as she stared blankly at the wall the same position she had been since morning, the same routine since that dream, cry,sleep and stare, everyone is getting worried,"I am not hungry" she replied not taking her eyes off the wall like she is waiting for someone to come out from it,"You have to eat something" I pushed on,"I will later" she replied faintly, I could see the tears in her eyes just waiting to be let out, why can't she just talk to someone,"Paige, please stop doing this yourself, talk to me or talk to Lisa or better still talk to your mum, please just talk to someone at least, you are going to fall sick at this rate" I said softly slowly walking into the room, she turned to st
