M I C H A E L

It's been four hours since Emory left the house, and although I didn't want to admit it, I was worried.

I knew she was looking for every way to get back with Sebastian and it bothered me. How could i still love a woman who left me for another man all because he's richer?

How could I love a woman who doesn't love me the same?

When would I ever learn my lesson?

Emory and I have come from way back and she was the woman I genuinely loved. I was obsessed with her at some point, we did literally everything and anything together in college.

We were the power couple, but no one really knew what goes on behind closed doors. How much she shakes me for not being able to afford her needs, and how she's only sticking around with me because of the status I provide.

She wanted the rich life.

She didn't want me.

I was the leader of a small gang in school, known for being a troublemaker. We did some minor drug deals, and I had a few assault charges, but Emory wasn't fazed by any of that.

Michael is just as crazy if not crazier. Like what would it take for him to realize that he should just walk away while his hands are “clean” he got into deep and he should’ve realized it beforehand

  • Regretting Divorce: Return of my heiress Ex-Wife   140: Hell Breaks Loose

    E L L EThe long awaited day of Mikhail's new collections launch was finally here. I was giddy with excitement, knowing how much this meant for Mikhail, and whatever makes my man happy, makes me happy.It's been almost three months since the launch of his last collection and it was a huge success. Everyone was waiting for the new collection, and everyone wanted a piece. This was going to be my first time attending his events, and I wasn't just going as a guest, but as his girlfriend.What a dream come true. The event would be taking place at the hotel Mikhail had purchased, and had spent the past few months renovating. The grand opening would be after the event, and it was already filled with reporters and journalists from different magazines and newspapers.I was so proud of him, and I was going to be by his side.I was fresh out of the shower in my lush robe as Mikhail came into his huge bedroom, a large box in his hand and three women next to him.Apparently, I was going to be the

    E L L EMikhail grabbed Sebastian by the throat and slammed him against the wall, and a few people stopped their chatter to watch."Stay the fuck away from us," he growled, his voice dangerously low."Stop! Mikhail, don't do this!" I cried, pulling his arms, but he was too strong.Sebastian's lips were turning purple, and it seemed like Mikhail was really going to choke him."You'll never have her. She'll always be mine," Sebastian spat, his voice barely a whisper."You'll never have her. She will never belong to you. She's mine."Mikhail's hands were tightly wrapped around his throat, and Sebastian's eyes were wide."Let him go, Mikhail!" I pleaded. "Please. You're hurting him!"He wasn't listening to me, his focus was solely on Sebastian.I could tell that Sebastian was trying to struggle against him, but the lack of air was making him weaker."Stop!""I'll kill you, I swear to god," Mikhail hissed, squeezing his neck harder."Mikhail! Please, baby. Let him go," I pleaded, trying to

    E L L E Once I was in his room, I took off my shoes, undid the dress and cleaned off my make-up. I was in no mood to take a shower, so I went to his closet, looking for a shirt. I grabbed the first shirt I could find and wore it, climbing into bed. I closed my eyes, inhaling his scent and sighed, wondering how we ended up here. We were fine and everything was perfect and then Sebastian had to show up. Now, Mikhail's insecurities were getting the best of him and I didn't know how to make him see that he had nothing to worry about. I didn't see myself with Sebastian and I wasn't going to watch Mikhail get himself in trouble because of him. And now he has misinterpreted it as me trying to protect Sebastian because I still loved him, when the only thing I'm trying to do is avoid unnecessary drama and getting his ass in jail. Tonight was already a long night, the media are probably getting ready to post photos and articles about the incident, and this could definitely harm Mikhail's

    M I C H A E LI spent the night restlessly, unable to sleep. The sound of the heavy rain storm was a match with the anxiety and anger inside of me.Where do I start from here? How do I begin this battle? Surely, her lawyer must have been informed. It was going to cost a whole lot of money to win this case and even at that, the chances were most likely 20% if not lower.I had earlier on looked up the family of the victim and her father was one of the most influential candidates in the white house, he would definitely do anything to ensure his daughter's wellbeing.I was a father now, and I understood how it would feel to watch your daughter suffer for someone else's doing. I would kill anyone who would ever dare hurt Luna. He has pressed multiple charges against Emory and now, we are almost defenseless. I hated that I still didn't know what was going to happen next, I just wanted the night to be over as soon as possible so I could go to the police station and know exactly what was goi

    M I C H A E LThe next morning, I was all dressed up to go to the police station. My sister was going to watch after Luna while I went out.Luna was crying and whining as she reached her tiny hands up to me and the sight of her looking like that broke my heart.I would have stayed with her, but this was something urgent that couldn't wait."Come here, little baby," my sister cooed, reaching her hands out to take her, but Luna only cried louder.Dana was the only family I had who didn't give up on me because of my lifestyle. Surely, she wasn't in support of all I did in the past, but she was the one person I could rely on.She had her own daughter and had a stable job.But, the sight of my niece was enough to tell me that taking care of a child was no joke and it really wasn't. Luna was the cutest and prettiest baby, and her cries were louder than anything I have ever heard, and her tantrums were far worse.My mother has long disowned me, swearing that she never wants to be associated

    M I C H A E LI was standing in the company of one of the most influential men in the country.The man was powerful.The man was respected.I was able to pull a few strings and get him a meeting with me, and I was now facing him.He looked intimidating and strong, his gaze was cold and his features were sharp. He was dressed in an all-black suit and was staring straight ahead.His presence demanded attention."How many I help you, Mr. Man?" The term was disrespectful, but the last thing I wanted was to cause any problems when I needed his help.He was my only hope right now. The only man who had the power to get Emory out of the mess she had gotten herself into.Hopefully, it all works out like I have it planned or else I'd be fucked."It is a pleasure to meet you, sir. I'm Michael Carter""Michael Carter. Never heard of that name before. Who are you and why have you come here?""Mr. Jeremy, I came here to talk about the woman who you had thrown behind bars."He cocked an eyebrow. "I'v

    M I C H A E LI arrived at the cell the next day, another day of leaving a crying Luna at home with my sister.I was starting to think she has colic, but I wouldn't be surprised if she's reacting to the tension surrounding her.She has a lot of tension surrounding her. Something that definitely wasn't safe was a two weeks old. She doesn't deserve to be thrown into our mess. And Emory was no different. Luna deserves to have a mother who loves her unconditionally and not use her for her own dubious intentions.And now, I was going to be the bearer of bad news.The officers gave me the familiar judgemental glares as they searched me and led me to the cell.And there, Emory was lying on the small string bed, her hand covering her face.She seemed to be lost in her thoughts.I cleared my throat, and her eyes snapped open.When she saw me, she slowly stood up and came closer, wrapping her fingers around the bars.Emory has spent exactly on week in prison, and her face has completely changed

    E M O R YI was angry.I was pissed.It's been two days since Michael had the audacity to suggest I give up on the company for that man. Give up all I'd worked for. He had the nerve to come and rub it in my face.How was I supposed to survive without that company?Without my share of the profit, without the money?Was he seriously asking me to choose between my freedom and the company?And what would be the use of my freedom if I couldn't provide for myself? No one would want to employ someone who has jail records, and I wouldn't be surprised if people shied away from me because of my criminal record.So, if I lost the company, I lost the business and my reputation.My life was over.Everything was ruined.And he has the nerve to rub salt on the wound by telling me I could go to jail.Who the fuck does he think he is?Why does he keep meddling in my affairs?What did he want from me?Does he hate me that much and want me to suffer?What is his deal?I was pacing around the cell, wait

    E L L E"Oh my God." She mumbled."Look, nana, it's not what you think. I swear, we're not irresponsible. Yes, we're having a baby, but, we're in love. This was not a mistake. It's not something I regret.""Oh, sweetheart. Of course, you're not. I'm not angry, honey. Don't even think that.""Then what? What is it? Please say something, Nana.""Eleanor, this is the best surprise of the day. I thought I was going to get a marriage announcement, but this is an even bigger shock." She smiled widely, pulling me into her arms."Nana." I whispered, relief filling my heart."Oh, sweetie. My granddaughter is pregnant. That's such a wonderful surprise. This is the greatest news. A little baby. Don't ever think I'm disappointed in you, Elle. Because you're the most careful girl I've ever known, and if you are pregnant, I know you love that man too much to risk it all for him. You wouldn't put your baby at risk for anything. You're my brave, independent girl. I've raised you to be a strong woman,

    E L L E"You're right. He would definitely threaten you. I want him to see that the two of us are perfect for each other. We're in love, and he cannot say anything about that. We don't have to do things according to his wishes, because, we're doing things the right way. We're together and we're happy. He'll come around once he has gotten over the shock. It will be my surprise to them when we're back in the US, but for now, we're going to bask in our little happiness. Just the two of us.""You're absolutely right. But, I have to ask. Is that what you want? Do you want to get married?""I'm not in a rush, baby. We've only been dating for seven months, and having a baby was not planned. But, we're not doing anything wrong. It's not like I'm pregnant, and we're not together. We're in a serious relationship, and it's not a crime to have a baby out of wedlock.

    E L L EMikhail and I sat in the doctor's office, anxiously waiting for the test results. We had decided to come to the hospital two days ago, to run a test just to confirm the pregnancy.We were both very eager to find out the details.I was so happy, but Mikhail was ecstatic.He had been talking about the baby all night.I couldn't believe the news had made him so excited. I had just been scared for nothing.I knew Mikhail was a man who loved and wanted a family, but seeing the joy in his eyes was the best feeling.Avery and Giovanna were equally excited about the baby, literally already talking about names and colors for the nursery.It was a great feeling, seeing that the people who were closest to us were happy."Are you okay, sweetheart?" Mikhail asked, his hands massaging mine."I'm great. Are you okay?""Of course. I've never been better.""Me neither. I'm so excited.""Good."

    S E B A S T I A N"Partially. It's not the only reason, but yeah. It's because of her. I can't move on. She was the one for me. The one I've always wanted, and no one has ever been able to compare. Even though I know, that's not fair, and she has moved on. I don't know how to move on, without her. Every time I close my eyes, I see her. All I want is her. And no one else.""With all you've said, I think the first thing you need to do is forgive yourself for making a mistake. You've lived with the consequences for so long, and you can't seem to get over it, but the only way you're going to feel better, is if you stop beating yourself up. You were a victim of circumstances, and you didn't have a choice. It wasn't your fault. And no matter how much you beat yourself up for it, it's not going to change the past. We are humans, and learn from our mistakes.""How do I do that? How do I forgive myself, and accept the fact that it wasn't my fault when it's really my fault? I didn't trust her.

    S E B A S T I A NI stood in front of the mirror the next morning, staring at my reflection. I was putting on a black suit pants and a white shirt. Two buttons open.I looked good, but I was feeling so sick.So sick, just thinking about going to a therapist and talking about my problems, which were caused by my own hands, to another person.A fucking stranger.But, I had promised Mom that I would go.So, I had to.After all, she was right.I had nothing left. If this was the only option, I had to take it.Fuck.What the fuck would a therapist understand? How do they do these things? Do I just sit there and tell her what happened?How could this possibly help me?But, I was doing this for myself. For Elle. Because I loved her, and it was time for me to stop living in denial.She had moved on, and I had to do the same.Even though it was the last thing I wanted, and the only thing I feared.I was a wreck.She was the one who could save me, the only one.But, she wasn't going to.And t

    S E B A S T I A NI sat in the mini art studio I had in my house, admiring my works. Her face, it was everywhere. Perfectly drawn and carved by me, for the past few months, I've had at least eight pictures of her drawn, painted, and carved.She was the only one I could draw, think or talk about, the only person who was constantly on my mind.I stared at my latest painting.It was a portrait of her.In my arms.Smiling.Happily.Like she used to, when she fell in love with me.I wanted her to look at me like she used to, to touch me, to let me touch her, and most importantly, I wanted her to smile at me the way she was smiling in my picture.This was the closest I felt to her, the closest I felt to her presence. She was all around me. The only way to see her.The only way to feel her.But it wasn't the same.I would give anything just to hear her voice one last time.One last chance.To see her.Touch her.Hold her.But she hated me.She didn't want anything to do with me.

    L A N AThe rage that has been building up in my body for the past few weeks was the highest I had ever felt it. The only time I had felt anything even close to this was the night Mikhail broke up with me.It was as if all my senses were heightened to their max, all attempts to get Mikhail back to myself was proving futile.Not only has Elle made it difficult for me, now they were out of the country to God knows where. I was livid, literally going berserk trying to find out which country they had led to, but there was literally no traces of them. No single trace. I had my resources try to track their every move, but the fact that I was running out of options was slowly driving me crazy. I didn't know how much longer I could go without Mikhail in my life.How much longer I had to watch him be with someone who isn't me."You know they aren't going to be there forever, right? They are going to come back and you can perfectly snatch Mikhail back. Why don't you just wait it out?" I heard

    E L L EMy nerves were literally high up the roof when Mikhail walked into the room with a big smile on his face, oblivious to the news that would change everything."Hey, beautiful," he greeted me, kissing my lips."Hey, baby," I smiled nervously."What are you doing?" He said, walking into the room and removing his shoes."Uh, nothing much. Just relaxing.""Hmmm." He stared at me for a while, probably noticing the tension in my face."Are you okay?" He cupped my cheeks, looking into my eyes. I fidgeted, unable to keep eye contact for too long. My gaze fell on the floor."Is there something wrong?""N-no. Nothing's wrong. Everything is great.""You're acting strange. Come on, talk to me. You can tell me anything."I swallowed hard, staring into his eyes."Mikhail, I need to tell you something, and I'm scared.
