“I’ll pay you the one hundred million right now,” Charlotte said once she was sitting across from Matt in the unpopular restaurant he had picked out for them to meet.

There was no exchange of pleasantries between them, just straight to business. Charlotte started digging inside her bag for her phone to make the transfer, as she tried to hide her fear.

“You can stop that now,” he said quietly. “It’s too late for any of that.”

“What are you talking about…?”

Matt shrugged. “I don’t want your money anymore. I’m no longer interested.”

Charlotte’s lips trembled. Xavier had been right. You can never pay a blackmailer enough. As long as he still had proof, Charlotte would never be free from him no matter how much she promised or gave him.

“Then what do you want?” She stared to ask.

He reclined in the restaurant chair and smirked at her. “I love seeing you riled up. It turns me on.”

Charlotte bit her lips so she wouldn’t say something she would regret. Of all the people who could have be

    Xavier had his reservations about meeting Laura, but after seeing things from Jaden’s perspective, he was curious to get to the bottom of it. Why else would Laura want to meet him? Did she want him to invest in her brother's business? Why would anyone do something this extreme just to get him to invest? She had to know that there was no way in hell he would do that after the frustration she had put him through. No. It had to be something else. And that was what he planned to find out.After finding out this specific piece of information from his friend about Laura that would have saved him a lot of stress if he had just asked Private to run a check on her sooner, Xavier gave in and finally enlisted the help of his private detective. So far, Xavier had found out that his ex-wife was now one of the richest women in the country, had been temporarily engaged to the son of the ex-president and had kept her son hidden on purpose until recently. To say that Xavier was unimpressed would b

    It was just a stupid meeting with his ex-wife, so why was he so nervous? Xavier wondered, rubbing his sweaty palms on a handkerchief. “She’s in,” he heard Carlos say to Laura from outside. Xavier cleared his throat. This was it. He started to straighten his tie, but stopped mid-way and asked himself what the hell he was even doing. He adjusted himself in his chair that was now beginning to hurt in certain spots where it didn’t before. Sighing, he forced himself to stay still. He raised the mug of coffee to his lips, looking as poised as possible when Laura walked in. From an onlooker’s perspective, there was not a thing out of place with him. Laura stopped by the door and regarded him with a smile. Carlos stood watching him with the door open, silently assuring Xavier that he was there in case he needed anything. Laura, who hadn’t heard the sound of the door close turned around to face Carlos. “You may leave now,” she said, practically forcing him out of the room and pu

    Xavier frowned as he stood by the door, wondering if it would be wiser to walk through or stay back to listen to what his ex-wife had to say. This was what she wanted, to put him in a position where she would be the one to call the shots. She had what he wanted and she planned to use it to her advantage. Shutting his eyes with a sigh, he turned around and walked back to the seat he had just vacated. “Talk,” he said, looking straight at her. She smiled and relaxed in her seat. “Why are you so pressed? I just want us to be comfortable and free with each other while having this conversation. I don’t know why you’re acting like I’m the enemy.” Xavier blinked. The longer he stayed here listening to her bullshit, the more he was tempted to flip out. She was twisting everything on purpose so that he’d try to correct her like before and prolong this more than was necessary. “If the next thing you say isn’t related to what you planned to tell me today, not only will I call the guards

    “You must be mad,” Charlotte scoffed at Matt. She stood up, carried her bag and adjusted her sunglasses to leave the restaurant, but he was right beside her in a second and holding her hand. “You don’t want to cause a scene, do you?” He asked with a chilly voice that let her know he was not afraid to create one. “Be a good girl and sit down, will you?” If looks could kill, Matt would have been a dead man, but unfortunately, they couldn’t. With a heavy heart, Charlotte did as she was told and sat back down. “You’re way too sensitive. I was just playing with you but you had to take it seriously,” he said with a chuckle. “I wonder what the big deal is. You know I’ve always wanted you and now you’re single and free. You’ve always been such an uptight bitch.” Charlotte crossed her arms and stared straight at him with a serious face without saying a word. His hurtful words were the least of her problems right now. She had so much to lose and unfortunately, he had the power to ma

    Contrary to what Charlotte had imagined would happen, Xavier did not try to initiate conversation throughout the ride. He only asked her where she wanted him to drop her off and she told him. He didn’t even ask for a specific address and didn’t pressure her to tell him more when she only gave him the name of her estate and not even the road. The ride was uncomfortable to say the least, just like it was silent, with only the classical music he never played accompanying them on their journey. They were alone in the car, with Xavier driving, since he had instructed his men to leave them once they left the building, but he didn’t let that make him overstep the boundaries she had created. “We’re here,” he said when he drove into the estate. “You can tell me when to stop or where to go.” She nodded and looked out the window. This was not how she had hoped things would go. It was too early to meet him. She wasn’t ready yet, hadn’t had the transformation she planned to have befo

    “I knew you would call me back sooner or later. It was only a matter of time,” Laura said with a smirk as she sat down opposite Xavier in his conference room. “I just hoped it would have been somewhere else and not here with all your guards.” “What do you plan to do with the pictures?” Xavier asked immediately after she sat down, going straight to the reason he had asked her to come. She didn’t appear discomposed by the question at all. “I just sent them to you, to show you what you were dealing with,” she said with a shrug. “Why?” “I just wanted you to know that your wife is not the angel you think she is. If she can have an affair with a man married to her own sister…” Xavier chuckled drily. “Why are you so obsessed with me? Why won’t you just let me move on? What’s your business with who I choose to be with? So if I decide to be with a pornst@r tomorrow, you’ll send me all the clips of her work?” Laura glared at him. This was clearly not the reaction she had been

    Charlotte paced around her room as she held her phone to her ear, waiting for the only person she could talk to at that moment to answer the phone. It rang twice and went to voicemail, but that was expected. Private had an official call line, but he rarely used it because of the type of job he did. It was just there to let him know who was calling and then he would call the person back with a new line. “Charlotte,” his deep warm voice greeted when she answered the unknown number. “Hi,” she greeted, now unsure what to say now that she had his attention. “How are you doing?” “I’m alright, and you?” He asked politely. “I’m great,” she said in a tight voice that showed she was anything but. There was silence. “I assume you didn’t just call me to ask me how I’m doing,” he said wisely. “Go ahead, I’m listening.” Charlotte sighed. How was she even supposed to start? She knew keeping people’s secrets was his job, but so was revealing the secrets of others to those who

    “I got you some presents,” Kate said with a smile when she stepped into Charlotte’s new house. “Thanks,” Charlotte muttered politely and took the bag her sister offered her, without looking at her face. She carried the rest of her luggage into the room next to hers and remained idle in the living room while Kate made herself at home in the room. Charlotte didn’t know how to react now that her sister was here and she was being nice. She had never forgiven herself for the stupid mistake she had made that had broken her family and her tight relationship with her sister and she didn’t think she or anyone else would ever be able to move past it. The Tv was on as it had been for a while, showing the cartoon she and Xavier had laughed at during their honeymoon. It was just a coincidence that it was the channel showing, Charlotte convinced herself. “This place is so big and it looks expensive,” Kate said, appearing in the living room and looking around. “I suppose getting married to

    “It’s time for bed, Caleb. Let’s go,” Charlotte told Caleb with her arms crossed over her chest, giving him no room to argue. “Just let me win this game…” he argued absently, more focused on the game he was playing on his iPad. “You’ve spent your extra fifteen minutes,” she said, taking the device out of his grasp. He frowned, but conceded in the end. “Fine.” As Charlotte tucked him into bed, she couldn’t imagine how the times had changed. It had been six months since Laura had been taken away, her parents had been released and since she had started running her own business. Caleb had started therapy again, and it had definitely worked. These days, he spoke so often and did whatever he wanted to do that it was hard to believe he had been the same mute boy from months ago. He had just turned four, but the topic of his birth mother never came up fortunately. He seemed to blend right in, just as sweet and annoying as any other four year old boy. “I love you mommy,” he wh

    When Charlotte saw Jonah being led out by a prison ward officer, she froze and started to wonder what she had been so scared about. He looked nothing like he did before. He had slimmed down to an almost unrecognizable state and his face looked like he had permanently lost the ability to smile. He walked with the slouch of someone that had given up on life in general. Charlotte doubted that whatever he was going through had happened in that prison in such a short time. “You can wait for me,” Charlotte whispered to Carlos who reluctantly left her side when he understood. “Hi,” Jonah said when he was sitting opposite her. He tried to smile, but it ended up looking like a grimace. He couldn’t meet her eyes. “Hi,” she said simply. She couldn’t let him see she pitied him. “How have you been?” He managed to ask. “You look good.” She couldn’t say the same for him. “Why did you call me here, Jonah?” “Straight to the point like always, huh?” He said with something she suspec

    Xavier could only relax comfortably when they were back on the jet and on their way back to California. He could finally let himself be convinced that his dream had been nothing more than that. It hadn’t been a sign of anything, because it had gone on perfectly with no dramatic appearances from anyone. Unfortunately, the thought of one day running into Laura again came often to him and disoriented him. However, he always pushed that possibility away to the back of his mind. He had run a background check on the psych ward Don had placed her and from his research, it was a very exclusive place, so her chances of leaving were lower than zero. It was like a madhouse for wealthy people to drop off their family members who had lost it through drug use of whatever means. Their security was so prioritized that it was practically impossible to get in or get out unless the very owner of the establishment permitted. There was also no possible way Laura could bribe anyone there. It was afte

    “Xavier, wake up! Wake up!” The sound of the female voice calling out to him sounded so distant at first, but the hand violently shaking his shoulders brought him back to consciousness. He was breathing fast, as his eyes got accustomed to the light around him, his chest heaving rapidly. “Are you okay?” Charlotte asked him, peering into his eyes as she touched the sides of his face. He could see the fear in her eyes as she studied him. “Charlotte,” he whispered, holding her arms and wrapping her in a tight hug. She was alive, here in front of him. “You’re alive.” “Yeah,” she said uncertainly, hugging him back. “Did anyone kill me?” She asked with a chuckle. He finally pulled out of the hug and glanced around. They were still in the jet, on their way to Orlando. He had just had a bad dream. “Where’s Caleb?” He asked. “Right here,” she said, pointing at a part of the jet where a small makeshift bed had been made for Caleb to lie on. “Is everything okay?” “Yeah,

    After bidding Kate and her family goodbye, Xavier and Kate had to take the journey back, while consoling Caleb, who couldn’t understand why the twins had to leave without him. It was a Saturday, and for the first time in such a long time, Xavier had a free day. They all decided to spend the day together, to make up for Caleb’s friends leaving. Charlotte was extremely happy. She chatted and laughed all the way to the four seasons Orlando, where they decided to spend the day with their son, since he had seen a video about it online and wouldn’t shut up about going there. She held Caleb’s shoulders during takeoff in Xavier’s private jet, more to distract herself than him. No matter how often she rode in the jet, she still got jittery when they had to go anywhere in it. She had made an appointment with Dr Anna that morning and she couldn’t wait to finally carry out the surgery the week after. “Are we really going to Orlando?” Caleb asked, peering out of the window of the jet.

    The ride home was mostly silent, with Xavier at the backseat, pondering on all that had happened that day while Carlos drove them home, shooting glances at his boss from time to time. “How was your break?” Xavier asked all of a sudden and Carlos cleared his throat. “Great. Thanks again for it. I really needed it,” he said with a smile. “How did it feel to have an actual conversation with her after so long?” Carlos sighed. “Not as bad as I thought. I actually feel better. Thanks for advising me to do it. We cleared some things out. She was mature about it and that’s that.” Xavier nodded and looked out the window at the trees that were zooming past. He remembered when Carlos had come to him for help when having to see Kate after the history they had was threatening to drive him insane. He had advised him to take a break, and then discuss with her when he was ready. It seemed to have worked. Carlos looked like himself again. It had been weird to find out that there had been a

    “When will you come back, daddy?” Caleb’s little voice came over the phone and Xavier smiled. He could picture his son standing next to Charlotte and holding the phone to his ear with both his hands. “I’ll be there this night, I promise,” he replied. From the corner of his eye, he saw Private trying to get his attention. “Take care of mom for me, okay? I’ll see you soon.” “Bye daddy,” Caleb said and Xavier nodded before he ended the call. “What’s up?” He asked Private. “She’s causing a scene, boss. She’s yelling at everyone and she even pushed her brother and broke a glass on the doctor’s head when he tried to sedate her,” Private told him. There was an urgency in his private investigator’s voice as he reported to him, but there was also a hint of amusement in his tone. Xavier rolled his eyes and walked past him toward the ward he had left to answer his wife’s call. “Why was there glass next to her in the first place?” He asked no one in particular when he enterrés t

    “My daddy used to beat my mommy before that woman took me and told she’s my real mommy,” Caleb explained the best way he could. “He told me he’s not my real daddy and that my mommy sold me to him.” “Wait, wait,” Charlotte told him. She had no idea what he was talking about and the more he spoke, the more confused she became. None of what he was saying made any sense. At this point, he was just throwing the words ‘mommy’ and ‘daddy’ around. “Laura, the woman that brought you to us, she’s your mommy, isn’t she?” She asked him slowly, hoping his answers would make sense to her this time. He shook his head. “That’s what she told me and then she brought me here after,” he said. “So you had other parents before she came?” She asked and he nodded. When Charlotte realized he wouldn’t give her an understandable answer, she decided to stop asking him so that he wouldn’t confuse her more. Since Xavier had gone out to find answers, this one might be one of them. She would ask him wh

    “Mommy!” Caleb squealed when he saw Charlotte and ran up to her. She carried him up and enveloped him in a tight hug. She was still not used to him calling her ‘mommy’, but hearing it was so natural and calming. Whenever she was with him, she secretly hoped something would happen to Laura or that she would say she didn’t want him again. She didn’t think she would be able to move on if he had to leave to go back to his real mother. “Did you miss me?” She asked, tickling his tummy. “Uh huh,” he replied, laughing and trying to get her hand away from him. Charlotte kissed him on the forehead and carefully set him back on his feet. She held his small hand and allowed him to lead her into the house. She had been in a sour mood after the meeting with her parents, but just a few minutes with Caleb had softened her up. Kate looked at her and smiled. With a playful frown, she nudged Caleb and asked him why he didn’t notice her. He started to laugh. “What did you do today while we were g
