CHAPTER 56

LILY’S POV

After that passionate night Noah and I shared, I slipped out of his house early the following morning, careful not to wake him. I knew things between us might get awkward and I didn’t want to face it. By all accounts, last night wasn’t meant to happen. That was my hormones acting up and taking charge. I was sexually deprived and angry at the thought of Robert spending every night for the past nine years with Scarlett. Noah just happened to be there, at the right place and time, with the right charm, the right body, and those irresistible eyes and moves.

Fuck…I must say I was impressed with his love-making skills. I never expected it. He was one sweet irresistible man. He handled me with so much care like I was made of delicate glass and didn’t mind letting me dominate. From the way he made love to me, it was obvious he too was sexually deprived and kind of still hurting from his ex-wife abandoning him. I felt for him. I hope the moment will come when he’ll reali

    CHAPTER 57LILY’S POVAfraid we were been followed, I tightened my grip on my kids’ hands and quickened my steps, urging them to keep up. But when I glanced back and saw it was the bodyguards, I stopped.I deflated with a sigh of relief, scolding myself inwardly for letting my paranoia and fear get the better of me. I thought we were been followed by the same bad people who paid that driver to kill me. Nonetheless, there was no need to be afraid. The estate with its top-notch security services was one of the safest in the city. It was one of the few reasons I chose to come live here. Though expensive, it was worth every penny“You’re relieved of your duties,” I said to them in an unfriendly commanding tone, still brooding over how they didn’t believe me and let me in after I told them I was the owner of my house and the mother of my kids. “As you can see I’m their mother and I’m back so there is no need to play the tough guy around them anymore.”I thought they stayed back to continu

    CHAPTER 58LILY’S POVThe school hallway buzzed with loud giggles, animated chatters and hurried footsteps of children rushing to their various classrooms as I made my way in with my kids. But all that seemed to evaporate as I entered their classroom. The other kids stared at me like I was breaking a sacred rule, probably wondering why I was bringing Liam and Lila directly into the classroom instead of leaving them at the usual drop-off spot outside the school building like other parents. I also noticed some of them casting me curious, almost judgmental glances, saying some things in low voices amongst themselves I couldn’t quite make meaning of. But I couldn’t care less. I was here today on a mission and I’m not living until I accomplish it.Once Liam and Lila were settled in their seats, I leaned down and asked Liam where their class teacher was.“There, Mummy,” he said, pointing confidently toward a door with a sign above it that read Form Teacher’s Staff Room, just before the ex

Stay away from him!” Scarface’s voice sounded sharp and commanding as he and Hawk eyes matched forward, making the boy back away from Liam in fear the moment he saw them approaching.How did they manage to make it to this school? I thought I made it very clear to them that I didn’t want them around. Did they secretly follow us here? Anyway, I’ll deal with them later. For now, I needed to teach this bully how not to mess with my son.As the boy was about to turn and flee, he accidentally bumped into me. His steps faltered and he clumsily fell butt hard on the floor, staring at me like I was a ghost that suddenly appeared from nowhere.“Listen up, you worthless excuse for a bully,” I spat, my voice cutting through the air like a whip. “Let this be the first and last time you’ll ever bother my son again. Next time you try it, I don’t care if you are a kid or not, I’ll make sure you regret it. Do you see these two men behind you? They’re highly trained pr

    CHAPTER 60LILY’S POVAfter giving the two men a thorough look, I realized I certainly didn’t need help from people like them. They looked like rascals, dangerous ones at that. One had a thick cigarette caught between his stained teeth, polluting the air with the smoke and the other had bloodshot eyes like he hadn’t slept in days or was high on something. They even had grotesque tattoos scribbled carelessly on their faces and also had this dirty smirk as they looked at me that made my skin crawl in disgust.“No, thank you. I appreciate the offer, but I just called my husband. He’s on his way,” I said as politely as possible, masking the nervous tension rising in my chest and pretending to wait for someone.“Ooooh,” the one with a cigarette in his mouth said, feigning a playful shock as he glanced at the other one. “The hot chick is married.”“Certainly didn’t see that coming,” the one with bloodshot eyes replied, equally looking surprised. He licked his lips menacingly like a predato

    CHAPTER 61LILY’S POV ~This was exactly what landed Allison, my cellmate in prison – she killed a drunkard who tried to force himself on her by ruining his balls and marring him beyond recognition with a screwdriver. Being faced with a similar situation now, I couldn’t blame her. In fact, she did a great job giving that monster the death punishment he deserved. And I was prepared to do the same to these two filthy bastards. ~The only problem now was that I had no weapon on me to kill them; no gun, no knife or even pepper spray and I wasn’t on heels. Heels were deadly weapons especially when used on the neck or head. I could have easily improvised with it but I was on a pair of white sneakers I had managed to find while scrambling for things to wear at Noah’s place.In this type of situation, close hand-to-hand combat wasn’t advisable. They had the number advantage and were tall and like thrice my size. Even if it were possible, I wasn’t so skilled at it. I could only throw a few pu

It sounded familiar.“What?” Bloodshot eyes asked confusedly as he left me and focused his attention towards the sound source. The other one who had his hands pressing down on me did the same.Seizing that opportunity, I gathered what was left of me and sought refuge by the side of the car. Looking ahead, I was able to make out Noah’s imposing silhouette from the shadows. He had this ferocious look on his face like an Alpha beast on the brink of going feral. Tightly clutched in his hand was a spiked metal bar, radiating a deadly determination that could send shivers down one’s spine. I wished we could just find a way to escape. I didn’t want him getting involved with these scoundrels for fear of them hurting him. If that happens, it’ll be all my fault and I won’t be able to forgive myself.“Let me guess, pretty boy,” Bloodshot Eyes sneer

    CHAPTER 62LILY’S POVNoah’s car was just a short distance ahead. We didn’t have to run much. As we hastily got in and fastened our seatbelts, he started the engine and drove off like one possessed with the desperate need to survive.For several minutes, we drove in silence, the both of us replaying the horror of what just happened in our heads though I was affected more as I was still in shock. I still couldn’t believe I almost got raped by two high rascals in a lonely street. Just the thought of what could have happened if Noah hadn’t arrived made icy shivers run through me, leaving me shaken and battered on the inside.I felt so ashamed that I found it hard to meet Noah’s eyes. Though I could feel his concerned, pitying gaze flicker toward me every so often as he drove. He was also checking his side mirror repeatedly to make sure no one was following us.I looked out the window to distract myself and seek serenity but my attempt was futile despite the beautiful sights and structur

If I had just followed the main road and waited through the traffic, I wouldn’t have crossed paths with those bastards. Now look what they’ve done to me.

Nonetheless, I struggled past the barrier, desperate to make my point known. Desperate to let out all that was eating me alive on the inside though my voice was shaking and unsteady.“Ever since we met, all I have done is drag you into my mess. You suspended Cassandra, one of the company’s important workers because of me. You risked your life twice now to save me.

    CHAPTER 73 ROBERT’S POV~ As I tucked my phone back into my suit pocket and headed back inside, I saw that Frank had the lady all tied up and immobilized as if she were some dangerous criminal. As my gaze settled on her, I couldn’t help but ask, “Scarlett is dead. She committed suicide last night. Tell me, did you have a hand in her doing this?” ~Frank gasped from where he was standing beside the lady, his features distorting from intense shock on hearing that. “Scarlett is dead?” He stared at me with wide eyes and a slacked jaw, saying the words like one learning to talk. But I didn’t pay attention to him as all my attention was focused on the lady. I wanted to hear from her because, from the way I was seeing it, she just might be responsible for Scarlett taking her own life.She was shocked too, even more than Frank.“Don’t lie to me or else I’ll kill you here with my bare hands,” I threatened in an attempt to make her spill the truth.“No…!” She blurted out, grimacing in bewild

Blinking repeatedly, I brought the phone down from my ear and checked the screen to make sure I was speaking with the right person. And yes I was, Raphael Walsh – the same man Scarlett left for me, Jake’s biological father.“This is some serious talk, Raphael,” I said as I brought the phone back to my ear. “Are you being serious right now or is this some trick…?Did Scarlett tell you to do this so she can escape me and what’s coming for her? I know she’s there with you. Pass the fucking phone to her or else I swear I’ll come over there and make you regret it.” Anger lit up my tone as I vented my frustration on him.“I’m serious, Robert,” he said, his voice heavy and trembling, as if he was on the verge of tears. “I’m telling you the truth.

    CHAPTER 71ROBERT’S POV~ I resisted Frank, swinging my elbow back as it connected with the side of his face. I tightened my grip on the poor thing’s neck and she gasped desperately for air that was fast eluding her system, her skin turning scarlet red like a swollen tomato. I wanted to squeeze the living breath out of her and watch her die that slow painful I wanted. ~But in the wake of the moment, I remembered Frank’s words and realized I was letting anger cloud my judgment. I wasn’t a bloody murderer like her and will never be.With a disgustingly defiant expression on my face, I released my grip on her neck and looked away from her pale face with a conflicted heart. She cradled her neck and coughed violently to regain her lost breath, looking at me like I was a monster straight out of the pit of hell. But I was only a monster she made. Before she killed my grandpa, I don’t think she bothered to conduct a background check on him to know the kind of family he came from. If she di

    CHAPTER 70 ROBERT’S POV ~ I wasn’t thinking clearly. An unquenchable rage filled every part of me, driving my thoughts and control. In a swift move, I grabbed the knife from the floor and aimed for her left breast where her heart lay, right where she had stabbed my grandpa twenty times. ~ Frank came from behind to restrain me just in time before the tip of the blade could connect with the woman’s chest. Skillfully, like one trained to do so, he held my right arm where I held the blade and twisted my fingers a little in a way that made the blade fall off, and kicked it under the bed. The woman’s eyes bulged, as though they were about to fall out from their sockets, her face etched with the terrific expression of someone watching their life flash before them. Paralyzed by fear, she gasped and panted like one having a panic attack. Instinctively, she began cowering back until she reached the edge of the bed without knowing and tumbled off, hitting the floor with a hard cras

    CHAPTER 69ROBERT’S POV“Grab a knife and cut the remaining ropes restraining that woman,” I ordered Frank with a firm tone. “We can’t be holding her here against her will when she has a life out there to live.” I turned and started making my way down the hallway to leave. I wanted to leave immediately for the hospital Lily’s mum was admitted. There wasn’t enough time as I still had other important business matters to attend to before the end of the day. But Frank said something that stopped me.“Boss, I can’t let her go,” he said a bit hesitatingly, his voice carrying a note of apprehension as if something bad was going to happen if he let her go.My brows pinched in bafflement as I stopped in my tracks and turned to look at him. “Why?”“If we do, she won’t think twice about going to the police to report us,” he explained.My brows furrowed even more as I looked away in deep thought. Frank was right. I didn’t even think of that. What do I do about this now? I had already too much o

    CHAPTER 68 ROBERT’S POV ~ I shot Frank a furious glare and slashed out a sharp breath, not saying anything. I returned my attention to Lily and took off the small sack bag covering her face only for my jaw to drop on seeing her. ~ “Please I’m sorry…” she pleaded desperately with eyes that were red and swollen from too much crying and dishevelled hair that plastered on her face due to sweat. “Spare my life… Don’t kill me…I didn’t mean to do it…” My brows furrowed deeply in confusion as I stared at her, scrutinizing every inch of her features. After giving her a thorough look, I concluded that the woman shivering and whimpering before me wasn’t Lily but someone else. Though she shared some sort of resemblance with Lily especially in terms of facial structure as they both had a delicate heart-shaped face that could easily fit into the cup of my hands, she was anything unlike Lily. The Lily I knew, my Lily had thick ebony black hair that always tumbled carelessly along her ba

    CHAPTER 67ROBERT’S POVThe noisy buzzing of my phone disrupted my sleep as I groaned loudly in frustration upon waking up. I usually switch off my phone before going to bed to avoid disturbances such as this. But last night I was so tired and forgot to do that. Now my sleep was ruined, and it wasn’t even 7 a.m. yet.Who could be calling at such early hours of the morning? I just hoped it wasn’t Carrey. At this point, I don’t think I can take any more devastating news of the company losing another client or learning we’d gone lower in the ad agency rankings.Blindly, I reached across the bed for my phone which was on top of the nightstand, knocking down a few things as I did. Not bothering to check the caller ID, I answered the call and with a frustrated, sleep-deprived tone asked, “What is it?...”“Boss I finally found her!” Frank’s overexcited voice boomed through the phone speaker.“What?...” My eyes widened, the drowsiness in them suddenly vanishing like it was never there.

I wanted to hurt him back. To retaliate most brutally. I wanted him to feel the tremendous amount of pain his betrayal had caused me. But in the wake of the moment, I realized I couldn’t do it. No matter how much I wanted to, how badly I wanted to force myself to grab the figurine and get this over with, I just couldn’t. I was helpless against him. The memory of all he had done for me, the good times we shared with my kids lit up in my mind, engulfing that dark thought. All I could manage to do was push him away which seemed easy because he wasn’t using much effort to hold me back.
