Third-party POV

" Why are we here? Tell us what is so important that I had to leave my daughter's side." The woman in front of me asked in a demanding tone.

" I will explain it in a moment," I said calmly, fixing papers on my desk. " I asked you all to come, as there are a few more things to settle."

Deborah Brown raised her brow and glanced at the two men beside her. Mark Green was sitting relaxed with his legs crossed. Only Millicent's father seemed to feel uneasy here.

" What else do you need to settle? We answered all the questions honestly," Deborah was the one to speak again, and I could tell that this woman was in charge of this family. Too bad, because I did not like her.

" Chief Cleaveland, is there anything else we can do for you?" Mark Green asked, putting his hand on Deborah's arm. " Calm down, please. We all want justice."

I could not agree more with him.

" You all testified that you saw Miss Sandra Brown falling down the stairs. " I said, scanning the

    Millie's POV " A hidden camera?" I could not hide my hurt. Why would he do this? " Please, listen to me," Alex pleaded, but I was unsure if I wanted to hear what he had to say. I know you are mad at me." " Are you sure you know that?" My tone was sarcastic." I had no bad intentions," Alex ran his hand through his hair. This gesture made me turn on before, but now I could not look at him. I felt so relieved when I saw him in front of my cell. My knight in shining armour had come to save me again. I gave no thought to how he had managed to save me; I was glad I could go home safely with him. Alex was my rock after everything my family had done to me. He was the man I could always trust.But now, when all the emotions settled, I had to ask how he managed to get me out of the cell since my situation seemed hopeless. I was accused of a murder attempt. My whole family testified against me, and I had nothing to prove my innocence. And yet, Alex took me back home without any issues. That

    Alexander's POV My heart broke when I saw a taxi that took Millie away from me. When she left our apartment, I called after her, begging her to stay. I ran to the hall to find out the elevator door closing. I took the stairs, hoping I would catch Millie before she left the building, but I was too late. I caught a glimpse of her wavy hair in the back of a cab just driving away.After returning to the apartment, I trashed half of my living room. Everything here reminded me of her and the future I may have lost for good. Everything bore her touch and scent. Millie's absence was overwhelming. The woman of my life had left me, and I had no idea what to do now.She had every right to hate me because I could not muster the courage to be honest with her, as I should have from the start. I kept telling myself I had time to tell her the truth, but now the time was over. I tried to act like I always did in the business, keeping my head cool and considering the pros and cons. I kept finding exc

    Millie's POVWhen Gabrielle entered the room, I kept staring at my phone, unable to move. " Is he already begging you to come back to him?" She asked jokingly, but I had no strength to join her. Thinking about Alex was not on my list right now. I was still mad about all his secrets. He could keep them to himself for all I cared. " That is not funny, " I mumbled, and Gabrielle raised her brow. " Well, I did not press on you yesterday, but today, you need to tell me what is going on." I shrugged my arms. That was the point. What was happening? " Okay, you don't have to tell me yet, but we will return to that. What do you want for breakfast?" Gabrielle offered me a questioning look, heading towards her kitchen. " Look at this," I said, making her stop. " You phone? Sorry to break it for you, but I have seen it before." " I highly doubt that you have seen something like this before, " I replied, and now she was intrigued. " What is it?" " I just received two million dollars," I

    Alexander's POV" She caught the bait, " I smiled at John when he put the phone down. " She did, but I still think it is a bad idea," my friend gave me a side-eye, but I only waved my hand at him. " Let me remind you that it was your idea," I pointed out, and he gave me a nasty look. "That was not what I meant by helping her," John replied dryly, and I rolled my eyes. " Maybe, but it worked, and that's what matters. I knew Millie would not let such a thing slip. She is too honest for that." I knew exactly what to do when transferring money from the company account. Millie would never accept something she did not work for, and the amount was much higher. Of course, in my opinion, she deserved all the money in the world, but two million was enough to put her on edge. There was no way she would not try to get to the bottom of this. And that was what I was counting on.John shook his head, defeated. " I hope she would not get mad again. I thought you were going to win her back, not p

    Third party POV" Of course, I understand. No, that is not a problem. I hope we will have a chance to work again in the future." I hung up, gritting my teeth. What the hell was going on? It was the fifth phone call since morning, and it was only 11 am. I hit my desk with fury. This was not looking good. One by one our partners were calling to cancel their contracts with us. No matter how convincing I was, I could do nothing to make them change their decisions. Some of them worked with us for years and had no complain about our service. I could not think of a single reason that could suddenly change their minds. I pressed my temples, thinking about the solution, but I could not come up with any idea. The situation became dramatic, and I knew what I had to do. I grabbed my phone, dialling Brown's number. He would find out anyway, so I preferred him to hear it from me. " Hello," Brown picked up almost immediately. Judging by the sound in the background, he was back in the hospital with

    Millie's POV. I was job hunting again. I could not rely on the money I received. Maybe it was a mistake, and I would have to return them. In the last months, I stopped believing in my luck. There was always something that would turn the events against me. I scanned the offers, and nothing seemed interesting, but I had to start somewhere. My laptop pinged, announcing the new email. Maybe one of the companies I applied to decided to give me a chance. My breathing sped up when I noticed it was from Foster Inc., and my mood instantly dropped. That was the moment. They checked everything, and I had to give the money back. I clicked on the email with my shaking hand. I read it carefully once and then again. The CEO really wanted to meet with me. I could barely imagine how such a busy man could find time for some irrelevant conversation. My hands were still shaking when I typed a reply. Well, I guess I was going to talk to one of the most powerful people in this country. I

    Third-party POV The conversation with Mark left me completely drained. This man seemed to be the perfect tool for my revenge, and was found useless. It felt like a sign from the gods when I met him a couple months ago. His being Millie's boyfriend was an excellent opportunity to come after her. When I met Gabrielle, I knew I had found a perfect woman. She was utterly smitten with my charm, obedient, ready to fulfil my every need. That was the woman I could keep by my side. She was in love with me, and I used it to the fullest. Gabrielle was beautiful and intelligent, she looked good by my side. With her law education, she could keep up with the conversation. Gabrielle was like a perfect accessory; all my lawyer colleagues praised me for finding such a woman. Our relationship seemed perfect, and I could not ask for more, at least for now. Of course, she sometimes brought up the marriage, but until now, I could devise perfect excuses to keep her on a leash. I was not ready

    Millie's POV The closer to Friday, the more anxious I was. I could not explain that, but I felt this day would change my life. I still hold on to the idea of asking Mr Foster to give me a chance to work for him, but at times it seemed inappropriate. Maybe I should stick to my original plan and consider my small business. Probably, I would have to leave town as my family would find a way to sabotage it somehow. Maybe moving out would be the best for me. The new place seemed great for a fresh start. I would miss Gabrielle, but I am sure she would understand my decision. I thought about Alex. He kept invading my thoughts more and more often during those last days. I did not want to admit it, but I missed him. Even with my friend's support, I felt that something was missing. Last night, I had a dream that left me with an aching pain in my core. Alex's hands were exploring my body. Goosebumps covered my skin, and I shivered in pleasure. His smooth fingers were dancing aro

    Millie's POV " You kidnapped me?" I asked, stretching my hands. " Why?" " Why?" My father glanced at me in disbelief as if I should know the answer. " You destroyed my life!" " I destroyed your life?" I was genuinely curious. What have I done this time? Why do they always blame me for their misfortune? " Your mother and sister are in prison." " My mother died many years ago, if you don't remember. Deborah is only your wife. She has nothing to do with me. Neither does Sandra," I added, glancing at Mark, whose hands balled. My face still hurt, and I did not want to feel another slap. " My wife raised you, and you only were ungrateful," my father's voice was cold. I could not believe his words. " She hated me, and you know that very well, but you never cared." This time, my voice raised. I could not believe what he was saying. How could I miss that my father was this delusional? " That is why you send them to prison?" This time, Mark spoke. " They sent themselve

    Millie's POV I stretched my arms, relaxing the muscles. The last two weeks were crazy, but it was fun craziness. I was initially reluctant when Alex offered me a position in his company, but now, I was slowly changing my mind. This place offered me more than I could expect. The projects were demanding, and I loved it. I was coming back home exhausted, but I could not be happier. Of course, at first, some of the workers were giving me side-eye, but it was nothing I hadn't experienced before. This field is male-dominated, and they often struggle with women's presence. It is even worse when the woman is in charge because what can she know. It took me a while to prove to them that I was something more than just a pretty face, and I knew my job. Since then, our work has gone smoothly. I was also glad that Brian kept his word, and most of my father's ex-employees found new jobs in his growing company. Some decided to try their luck in other fields, and I could not stop them fro

    Alexander's POV " Well, that sounds promising," I smiled, listening to the report. One of the lawyers I hired told me about the progress of Millie's family case. Deborah and Sandra tried to make the judge believe they were innocent but failed after the record from Sandra's interrogation was presented. After presenting this proof, nothing they said mattered. Now, both women waited for the final verdict. I still tried to process how they could do all this because of a trust fund. It was beyond my imagination how someone could be so cruel. But, now, they would get what they deserved. I could not feel pity for them, not for what they did to my wife. " Thank you for the info. Keep me updated," I said before hanging up. My thoughts returned to my agreement with Millie. She agreed to a probation period in the company. For the next six months, she will take care of some of my projects to figure out how she feels about working together. I could not ask for more and was obliged to follo

    Millie's POV I brushed my hand over Alex's bare chest. It was so lovely to be together again. We spent a lazy morning, leaving bed only to get snacks or drinks. I wished this day could last forever. " Gabrielle's physio is going great," I said, placing my head on Alex's chest and listening to his steady heartbeat. " Brian is helping her every day. They became inseparable," my husband replied, playing with my hair. He was right. Since Gabrielle was discharged from the hospital and returned to the lake house, Brian spent almost all his free time there. He enjoyed helping my friend with her therapy. Aside from that, they spent a lot of time talking, laughing, and watching movies. I could tell Gabrielle was getting attracted to Brian, even if she called it friendship. I knew she was careful after Michael's betrayal. When I cursed Gabrielle's ex-boyfriend, Alex only smiled mischievously and mumbled about karma. I only hoped that this karma would hit him hard. This man deserved not

    Third-party POV **Warning-sex scene*** I thought about Gabrielle. And how lucky I was that it was over. This accident was a blessing. Now, I could focus on things that really mattered. My career was blooming. The cases I worked on made me more and more respected in our circle. Everyone knew I was fearless, always ready to fight until the blood was drawn, no matter whose blood it was. I turned around to look at the woman peacefully sleeping by my side. She was a stunning beauty and had a position that could help me a lot in the future. I moved my hand across her full breast and squeezed her nip*ple, which hardened under my touch. My di*k responded to that immediately. She was a great lover, always willing to fulfil my needs. No wonder when her husband was too busy to appreciate what he had. I could use that instead. " Hmm...," Monic mumbles softly. " Ready for more? " With you, I am always ready. How much time do we have left?" Monic glanced at the fancy clock hanging

    Millie's POVI watched as Gabrielle sighed, preparing for another physio session. It had been two weeks since she started, but there had been no results. " Do I really have to go there? After each session, I feel exhausted but there is no improvement, " she whined as I helped her to dress. It became our daily routine, and I could only roll my eyes when she was not looking. We both knew how this conversation was going to end. " Yes, you have to go. The result won't happen by themselves. If you want to walk again, you must bite your teeth and let them do their job." Gabrielle's head lowered. " What if I never walk again? What is the point of all of that? We both know this may never happen." This was the part I hated the most. I was scared that one day, my friend would lose her whole hope and give up. " It will happen," I whispered, hoping my voice would not break. " How can you be so sure about that?" Gabrielle looked me straight in the eyes. " I do not know!" My voice betrayed me

    Third-party POV" Is it all you got?" Deborah Brown leaned in her chair and smiled. " Is this not enough?" I replied, mimicking her movements. " You show me a video where I walk with my daughter. Since when has that been enough to keep me here? I thought you were a professional. I feel disappointed." My hands balled, but I confined my anger quickly. It was not my first rodeo, and I dealt with people like her all the time. " Do not spoil everything. I am just warming up." I pressed the button, and another video started. This time, it was a recording from the parking lot. "Does it look familiar?" Deborah Brown glanced at the screen, but her face remained emotionless. " Seriously? This one is even better than the last one. Some people in masks and a random car." I smiled gently. This was going to be interesting. " The car is not just a random car. It belongs to Millicent Brown. Isn't she, by any chance, your stepdaughter?" Mrs Brown shrugged her arms. " Maybe. What does that have

    Alexander's POVI ran into Adam's office practically but couldn't care less. Nothing else mattered since he told me there was a chance to find out who had damaged my wife's car. " Someone is eager to discover the truth," Chief Cleaveland greeted me with a soft smile, utterly unfazed by my intrusion." Did you find anything?" I asked, shaking his hand. " Anything is not the word I would use. I think I know everything already," Adam replied, returning to his chair. I sat on mine, breathing deeply. " Out of form?" he joked, but I could only think about what he had discovered, so I raised my eyebrow. " Okay, okay, jokes aside," Adam said, fixing his glasses on his nose and turning his attention to the computer on his desk. " It took me a while to put my hands on the record from the carpark. The owner of the building was pretty adamant about keeping them secret." " Was he involved?" I asked, surprised. What could this person have against Millie? " No, I think he is just against police

    Third-party POV" It is over. We ran out of money. Any day now, people will start banging at our doors, asking about their paychecks. I can pay them this month, but then nothing will be left for us."I looked at my husband. This man was supposed to be my ticket to a comfortable, luxurious life, but everything has gone downhill. It was not how I imagined my life after years of poverty. " Is there nothing you can do?" I asked, fixing my gold bracelet. I have always loved jewellery and promised myself that one day I would have tons of it. And I kept my promise. Brown has been spoiling me with it since we met, and I was not ready to give up on that. "There is nothing we can do. I do not have new projects, and without them, there will be no income. I am sure you understand that!" His voice rose, and my eyes darkened. I did not like how he said 'we'. There was no 'we' until he got back on his feet, but I was not going to tell him that now. For now, he had to believe I was still the same l
