Ryan’s POVI woke up early and went to wait outside Charlottes room for when she woke up. I gathered that she would not have had a good night sleep, so I planed on leaving her to wake up on her own. Then Grace came out of her room and walked over to me grinning.“What are you standing around for stud?”“I am waiting for Charlotte to wake up”“Want to wait in my room?” She winked at me.“My job is to keep Charlotte safe, so I would prefer to stand here and wait for her to wake up”“Do you like her?”“What do you mean?”“Do you fancy her?”“What? No, we are friends, and she is with my boss”“Is she though?”“Yes, she is, she is just angry at him and that is fully understandable as I am also angry at him”“You are a big sweetheart” She chuckled “I will be back soon, I need to grab some clothes for her to wear” She gave me a small wave as she went back to her room.I had to admit she was cute in a crazy kind of way.It did not take her long to come back carrying a big bag. She placed it o
Charlotte's POVWe bought the tests that Ryan chose and headed back to the car.“I hope you need to pee” Grace giggled “I am so excited for you”“Lets just get back to your place first” I told her. I was not sure how I felt about the whole thing yet. As soon as we got back Grace dragged me back to my room and pushed me into, the bathroom.“We will wait out here” she told me as she shut the doorI glared at the closed door for a few minutes before finally walking towards the toilet and opening the package to read the instructions. So, from the look of it I just needed to pee on the stick and wait. I pulled out the first test and pissed on it like it said, I then put in on the vanity to wait. I swear that three minutes lasted for eternity. I kept glancing at my phone waiting for the time to be up. Finally, the three minutes were up, and I walked over the check the test. I stood frozen as I looked at it, I quickly pulled out the instructions to check that I was reading it right. I left t
Jack’s POVAfter we had breakfast, we headed over to Phillips warehouses. It was time for his staff to know that they had new bosses effective immediately. I was expecting more fight, but it turns out he paid his staff shit and treated them even worse. Most of them were happy that I was taking over. Grant had the job of moving all of Phillips and Gavins houses and bank accounts into Charlottes name. Once that was done, she can choose what she wants to do with them. Thankfully since I was so busy I did not have time to dwell on the fact that Charlotte was not waiting for me at home.By the end of the weekend, Charlotte was not the proud owner of eleven cars, five houses and six million dollars. I was looking forward to letting her know when I saw her next, what would hopefully be on Monday in the office. I had a meeting with Zac and 9am and I am hoping that Ryan and Charlotte will come to the office with him.“Shall we grab dinner while we are out?” Lance asked.“Yeah, I suppose so” I
Grant’s POVI groaned as I stretched my back, I had not sat for this long behind a computer for years. I had spent the last few hours going though and finding all the bank accounts, properties and cars that were in Phillips and Gavins names and moving them all into Charlottes. The wife who I discovered was called Rose sent me a picture of her sat on a nice beach somewhere. I assumed she was fine and moving on with her life. I also kept a close eye on Jane as I did not trust that girl not to come back and cause trouble. Since she had left Phillips, she had been begging the husband to take her back, I felt bad for her when he sent her away. It turned out that he had now moved on with his secretory. She was now currently living on the streets. Part of me felt bad for her and wanted to help, the other part of me decided that she brought this on herself and can suffer.I needed to go and see Doc, he told me he wanted to find another job and get back to helping people. I needed to go and ta
Charlotte’s POV“I am fine with that” Jack smiled at me and then offered me a pastry.“Thanks” I mumbled as I took one.“I got coffee too” He went to hand me one and I quickly moved away from his desk “What?” She asked looking around shocked.“Um, I don’t drink coffee anymore” I tried to explain.“Since when? You had a coffee on Friday”“Since Saturday morning” I mumbled “When will Grant be here? I have finished my work, so I would like to go talk to Hannah now” I smiled at him, I wanted to know why this bitch tried to seduce my man. She must have known that he would reject her, so what was her aim?“I will call him now” Jack picked up his phone and called Grant.“I need you at the office now” He hung up without saying anything else.“That was rather rude” I mumbled.He looked at me in shock “Your right, I have been a bit stressed these last couple of days”“Was that Grants fault?” I asked looking him right in the eyes.“No” He admitted “It was due to my own actions”“Then don’t take
Ryan’s POVThe whole time I was in Jack’s office I was on edge, waiting for him to blow up at me for hitting him. I eves dropped on his conversation with Zac thinking maybe he was going to give him my job and fire me. Only he was offering him a job as Charlottes driver, I guess I did still have a job. Once Zac left, I waited for him to call me over. I was wrong yet again as he called Charlotte over instead and started telling her that he had Hannah in the cells, and he had kept her alive for Charlotte. Honestly my head was swimming right now as I watch Charlotte set rules in place for her going to see Hannah. I was impressed when Jack agreed, and I got to go with her. Yes baby, I was going to have a very interesting afternoon.Then Jack offered her a coffee, I was about to step in myself and quickly take it away. Thankfully Charlotte managed to get away herself.Jack then called Grant and Charlotte went back to her desk to wait, now he was going to call me over and tell me this job wi
Jack’s POVAfter Charlotte left, I slumped in my chair, now I just had to wait and see what happens. I did not understand why she would want to cameras and stuff disabled. Was she scared that we were lying to her about me getting drugged? I hated waiting, I wanted to leave and go home so I was there when she was finished with Hannah. But I knew that was a bad idea and I needed to be patient and wait for Charlotte to come to me.Warren came and sat in the seat opposite me “What do you think she will ask Hannah?”“I have no idea and that’s what worries me” I sighed.“Lance told me that she said something that shocked both Ryan and Grant that stopped walking in shock”“Does he know what she said?”“No, they were too far away” “Fuck I hate waiting” I growled.“You are not the only one, we all want her to come back home” Warren told me as he stood up and went back to the door.I groaned I needed something to keep me distracted. I opened the internet browser and started to search for roman
Charlotte’s POVI looked at Grant in shock “How did you?” I was starting to panic, would the others figure it out so quickly?“Oh my god, am right” He looked at Ryan “You’re a sly dog how long have you known?”“Not long, I found out the same time as Charlotte”“And that was?”“Saturday morning” I sighed “It was Grace who figured it out when I vomited after smelling coffee”“Shit, so no more coffee for you” he laughed.“Well not for the moment no, but please don’t tell Jack. I want to wait and let him know on Christmas morning”“You should go get a little jumpsuit and wrap it up for him”“That’s such a good idea” I smiled at him, I could get it embroidered with something like ‘Heir to the King’ I laughed.“Ok you have to do that” Ryan told me.“I will, but right now we should probably get back to the office before he has a mental breakdown” I laughed. I could just imagine how much he was stressing, wondering if I would come back.“You going to tell him what she told you?” Ryan asked as
