CALLUM I couldn't believe my eyes, Clara was right here in my hands. In front of me after three years. God I had her right where I wanted her but Leah had to butt in as usual. "What the hell was that all about back there?" She spoke breaking my inner monologue as she shut the door behind us. "What are you talking about?" I asked shrugging my shoulders. I couldn't care less about her feelings right now when I had something bigger in mind that I needed to deal with as soon as possible."Don't you dare pull that bullcrap with me. You know what the hell I'm talking about. That stunt you pulled back there with Clara in the presence of everyone. Don't you ever think that people are going to think that she is going to be a problem to us. Our relationship?! I was neglected back there." She yelled as I rolled my eyes.
"You are just worried that people will finally realize that I don't give a fuck about you and you have been imposing yourself on me. What? Can't handle that bad energy?" I taunted as she stormed towards me.
"Don't you dare take that tone with me. Or I promise you, I'll make you regret it. You are mine. Not Clara. Mine, so the sooner you get that in your head. The better for you. Do not cross me. I'll not allow myself to be played for a fool." She said as I replied,
"I don't have to keep any of those promises. Whatever deal you have over my father is between you and my father. Sure I'll get married to you if I must but trust me when I'm done, you will be the one begging for a divorce. Now leave me alone." I snapped as she took a step back breathing heavily as she tried to say some thing but my phone buzzed interrupting the moment.
"Leave I need to talk to whoever it is on the phone!" I said as she shook her head.
"I'm your fiancee. You don't need to keep secrets from me so go ahead and pick the call."
"Leah. Leave. Now!" I said calmly as she huffed and left leaving me alone as I sighed and answered the call, placing the phone on my eyes.
"Callum speaking." I said.
"I have found the address of the woman you sent me to look for. She stays in the city, works at SmartCo and is currently single. There is no man in the picture" It was the investigator that I had put on the job yesterday.
Damn he was efficient.
"I met her today but just for a few minutes. Thank you. Send me the address and I'll wire the money to your account. I may need your help further down the line so stay close by." I said as he accepted and ended the call.
My phone buzzed with the incoming text message from him as I read the address memorizing it before deleting it. I didn't want Leah snooping around not if I could do something to stop it.
Now I had to figure out many to make Clara pay for all the pains and suffering that she caused me.
****Three Hours Later****
I was in my office playing Candy Crush to pass time when the door was suddenly barged open and my father stormed in with my PA behind trying to stop him from distracting me.
"Excuse sir, I told you my boss is busy and shouldn't be disturbed." Lena said as I quickly spoke,
"Don't worry about it Lena. You should go. I'll take care of this." I said nodding my head as she hesitated a bit before leaving the office leaving us alone as she closed the door behind us.
"What's this I'm hearing about another woman in the picture? Have you forgotten all about Leah?" He yelled at me as I rolled my eyes.
"Did Leah send you here to threaten me or something. Because I don't see how my life is any of your business." I stated crossing my arms as he replied,
"It's my business when you start throwing it away carelessly. This isn't like you. You have a duty to fulfill. Why don't you fulfill it and stop all this stupid games that you are playing. Leah is a beautiful woman and she's perfect for you. I don't see why you should tied her down quickly. And now I'm hearing stories about a mere worker who was causing a rift between you and your fiancee. Get your business in order and get back on track or I'll have to do things my own way." He threatened as I scoffed,
"I'll never pretend to love someone I can't stand. You are the one that is forcing me into a marriage I do not want. You are the one trying to pull all the strings here. You are the one that's desperate for this to happen you are willing to lose sight of the fact that I'm your son and my happiness should matter to you."
"You are being ridiculous. What do you know about love that you think you can do this? Acting like a child?" He said waving his arms aside as I got furious and stood up.
"Leave my office immediately. Before I call security on you." I said as he looked at me and laughed.
"You wouldn't do that if I were you. One of us is going to win this fight and it's going to be me..just wait and see how soon enough I'll have you walking down that aisle getting married to Leah." He said as I rolled my eyes enraged at his priorities but there was nothing I could do.
I learned a long time to stop depending on my father because he was the one who was sure to disappoint me every single time.
"We will see how long that will last. Now leave. I won't say it again." I said as my father glared at me before storming out of the place more angrier than he had been when he walked in.

10CALLUMThe day finally got to an end as I made my way back home when I caught sight of Clara standing in the bus stop definitely waiting for the next bus to get in. I stopped my car in front of her as she looked up and stepped back realizing it was me."Get in, we need to talk." I said as she shook her head."No, I have nothing to say to you." She said shaking her head as I said"Trust me, you don't want me to cause a commotion here. Now get in quietly and maybe I'll give you a chance to explain why you betrayed me." I threatened this time around as she finally gave in and entered the car putting on the seatbelt as well."What were you doing there?" I asked as she sighed replying."My car engine isn't good. I tried to start it but it didn't start so now it's hunking down at my workplace until I can scramble up some money to take it to the mechanic." She explained herself as I nodded my head and drove heading straight to a restaurant."Where are you taking me?" She asked as I replie

11CLARAHe dropped me in front of my house and drove off, as I made my way inside.Flora was watching TV when she looked upwards to see me."You are late!" She stated as I winced remembering that I had forgotten to call her and warn her that Callum had taken me out, derailed me for the next three hours."I'm sorry. I got taken against my wish. Callum found me." I said collapsing beside her as she turned to look at me with surprise."Are you alright? Do we need to call the police or file a restraining order?" She asked as I shook my head."The police would gladly take his side. Besides it's my turn to repay the debt I owe him. As long as I make him happy, then I have nothing to worry about." I said as Flora frowned. Not liking that answer one bit."And what kind of happiness does that entails exactly? You can't give him money, he is wealthy than you." She pointed out as I wondered if it was safe to spill the beans then realized that she was the only one that I had in my corner after c

12CALLUMThe rest of the day was quite exciting to me after what had happened in the meeting. I had purposely done that to rile Clara up and it was fun.I was definitely going to do this again but first I needed a way to get rid of Leah. She had been too clingy with me especially when we go out thereby giving everyone the false impression that we are together.I don't want to break it up only because my father will demand an explanation and get rid of whatever he thinks is causing me to have double mind and that's Clara at the moment.And also I don't want to do anything that would put me in the prime light.Now I was in my Limousine (my car was still in repairs ) being taken to my father's mansion because he had demanded an audience with me and didn't want to reschedule it.I tried to think of what he could possibly want to discuss with me and my mind kept on going to the fact that he might want to push up the wedding a bit.I already knew my stance on that and I was going to step d

13 CLARA This week had been shitty towards me, not only did we partner with Callum and his company which meant that I got to see Leah all the time and suffer her bullying, my kids fell sick, and were admitted to the hospital. Apparently there was a kind of bug that was going in the school and my kids were unfortunate to catch it.I sighed as I stared at them sleeping in their respective beds. Since they were twins and didn't like being apart, the doctor conceded and set another bed in it, saying it would be easier for him to check on both of them at the same time without mixing them up because they looked identical.I thanked him for his kindness but he waved me off saying that I looked like I needed a break and it was the least he could do for me at this point.I guess, I really needed to work on my appearance if a doctor was pointing out that I looked terrible.I hadn't been able to sleep well this past few days because I had picked up some extra shifts and worked overtime in or

14Callum POVI was furious when I realized that Clara hadn't been to work for the past three days as Kennedy has another PA following him about doing his work. At first I thought he had fired Clara until he told me that she was on sick leave.Now this seemed very familiar after all Clara always had a kink for running away when she gets overwhelmed.But it would be her last regret of she indeed ran away. I'll find her and deal with her.Dialing her phone number I paced around my office waiting for it to connect and it did, as Clara spoke.It seemed that she didn't care about who was the one who had all the cards and she was feisty. Something that I didn't know I had missed all this while because she had been meek and mellow and never putting up a fight when I needed her to do something that I realized that I had missed this part of her.This side of her that refused to be put down no matter what and would always find a way to make it work for her.Luckily I was able to get the address

15CLARAI headed back to my kid's ward with Callum behind my back silent and not saying a word to me. But I didn't have time to think about it, after all who knew what he was thinking now.The door opened as I walked inside as Flora was reading a magazine still watching over the boys but raised her head up when she noticed movement.Her eyes froze in fear as it widened even more when she realized who had walked in after me."Clara....what's going on?" She asked standing up as I shook my head slowly."He searched for me here. Don't worry about it, just ignore him." I said as she looked back at him and looked at me before nodding her head."Wait, this are your sons. But that lady there told me it's hers?!" Callum shouted pointing at Flora when he finally realized where he remembered the kids from.Definitely seeing why the doctor has mistaken him for their father, after all he and Damon bears strong resemblance to each other as well, although I'm not yet certain of their relationship.

16DAMONIt was a hectic day at work as I battled three meetings in succession trying to get the investors on my end but it was successful as I got the deal.This certainly called for some celebratory dinner later on..and I knew where exactly to spend it.Leaning heavily on my chair I reached for my phone that was on the table and dial Kaden's number, my best friend and allowed it to ring before he picked up."Hey, what's up?" He said as I grinned and said,"Guess who just sealed the Baker'sCash deal with Mr Koel." I said as Kaden replied,"No freaking way, man. You were able to convince him..that guy is like Lucifer's incarnate, getting him to agree to anything is impossible." Kaden said genuinely shocked and surprised at the same time."Well not impossible anymore since I did it. Besides I told you that I would be able to pull this off. Which means you owe me dinner." I said as Kaden groaned."Come on man, you are ripping me off, you just love eating my money don't you?!" He said as

17CALLUM The car ride was silent as Clara refused to talk to me at all, just focused on resting. I knew she wasn't sleeping but I didn't want to peruse for information at this point. She was exhausted and she needed rest. Now I could see why she was overworking herself to the bone and skipping work. She needed to be there for the kids which brought me back to my next problem. I knew that she had kids....well that's how we met, but I didn't account for them in the equation. I don't like unnecessary baggage and although they were cute and all, they were the literal reminder that Clara wasn't mine just as the kids wasn't mine.And I had to play my cards well to get on their good side because if I did, then Clara would have no choice but to be mine.But I had no idea what to do. Should I call for help in this case? Not that I had any options that would help me out with this. So I decided to do what I did best, putting the problem aside for the mean time and focusing on the one at hand.

I don't know what reason she was trying to say but I let her be.Clara and Flora had left the house to get some of the things they claimed were important while I stayed with the children. I kept looking at them and watching them speak and play.Being around children was cool, that is something I had no time to do. It would be fun if the children were your own. I know the feeling I'm getting now, I don't know how I am supposed to announce that I am a father."You know that I cannot stop you but you have to make your decision." One told the other.They sounded so brilliant and so cool. I loved this, not the rascal ones.I was busy but their conversation made me want to hop in."So children, what are you all talking about?" I tried hard to keep a calm voice."We're playing a hide and seek game." One of them answered."Wow

You have to listen to me." I tried to speak to her.I know how much effort I'll need to put into making Clara listen to me."You want me to call down and my children are being kidnapped. You don't even know who." She shouted."I can explain what happened." I held her hands."Explaining won't bring back my children. I need you to tell me where my children went."

Chapter 83LEAH'S POV"Clara would stay." Callum announced it.When I heard this sentence, I could not move an inch. I wondered where all my help was going, I really thought that Callum would let Clara go. I hated that he still kept Clara even when she was willing to go.I hated that and tried to hold myself. I didn't want to throw myself at him and rant. I had displayed my love enough to Callum and he doesn't see any reason for me displaying it.I got so upset when I heard that Callum chooses Clara over me. I don't see any excuse for him to choose Clara over me.I was rich, my dad had the best company and he could run that, I was beautiful.Clara was nothing but a piece of shit. I just hated her.I left the house in pain when he made this decision."Fine." I clenched my lips and left the house.It was clear that I was not wanted there for some reasons that I don't know.

"What's happening to you?" I asked her."I...I don't...." She kept stammering.I was thinking too much. I can't see her this way. She was so down, she looked like she had been running away from someone."Speak to me. What's going on?" I asked herClara was unable to talk. I was confused about what to do.The up part of her shirt was torn and it revealed her breast.I took her inside and tried to make her sit. When I was sure that she had sat down I rushed to lock the door.She did not talk so I don't know if anyone was after her. I checked the room and made sure that the children were inside.I don't want them to see their mother like this. Alex would begin to get emotional and Kelvin would ask me questions that I would not answer."What is it Clara?" I brought her close."I don't know what is happening Flora.

When I got a call from the police that they found someone I know, I quickly knew that it would be Clara. She would never learn but try to do it in a better way.Getting to the scene I was already ashamed seeing her lie on the floor like a homeless human. I could not even say a word, I just stood there. It was after some minutes that I ordered the ambulance to arrive and take her to the hospital.When she was brought back from the hospital. The questions I asked and the answers I got were two different things. I didn't even know what to say to her.I left her for the meantime because I was too upset to get rubbish for an answer. Clara was suspended from work after what she had done."First it was a woman. Bringing a woman to my company to tell people that I don't pay her and now she is sleeping on the road." I murmured.What was all these for? If she wa

Chapter 79CLARA'S POVI was done with explaining how I got to the room. Of course there was no cool explanation for that. Callum just kept forcing me to speak and I kept saying that I had nothing to say.It was obvious I had nothing to say. I mean was he expecting me to tell him that Leah took me there? Although he would believe it I say it but Leah has her own way of manipulating Callum to do his will but in a way that will please her.I got to my room praying silently that he does not come back for the trail to make me talk. I had stayed indoors until I heard him leaving the house to work.I was excited but I didn't show it because he might come but once I begin to jump. So, I stayed happy and kept myself cool."Oh Clara you just escaped the last thing that would have put you into trouble." I said to myself and gave myself a sigh of relief.I remembered everything that happened but I was not sure about Leah attacking me. I know I say someone like her, what if that was Becky?I swea
