##Chapter 28

Hunger Strike

Michelle's POV

I freeze on the spot as I hear his voice behind me. ‘It can't be him! He shouldn't be!’ I screamed in my head as I turned around slowly.

‘What is he doing here?’ I mulled in my head blaming his bad timing as he switched on the light.

‘How could you do this to me, Michelle?’ I said inwardly, referring to myself as a third person.

“Good morning” I waved at him embarrassingly. “Morning? It's not morning yet” he chuckled softly, but his expression was still stiff.

“Oh… that's right” I nodded, not raising my head up. “You didn't show up for dinner” he said, which was more like a question.

‘Did he forget about the slap?’ I pondered because of his calm and indifferent look.

‘That is great, it works out for me well’ I giggled inwardly.

“Yes…. I slept off” I said slowly. “Alright… I will get the chefs for you. You should be properly and healthy” he said, taking out his phone from his pocket.

“You don't have to” I stopped him. “Why?” He asked.

Really?” I asked with my teeth gritted, and the driver nodded at me. “haha, Mr Houston can be so surprising. Let's go” I said with a fake smile which was obvious.I walked out of the car and I gave the driver a questioning look, making him take the lead. “This way, ma'am” he said, and I walked behind him.The whole building was so quiet and I suspected that only people of high standards would go to that hospital, and even the w

    ##Chapter 30Advice From My Friend Lucian's POV In the early hours of the day, the atmosphere was quiet, and the streets were sparsely populated. The soft light of the rising sun was casting long shadows, creating a peaceful ambiance.The sound of leaves rustling gently in the trees could be heard, and the chirping of birds greeting the morning, a few distant sounds of a few early risers starting their day echoed on the street.There is a sense of stillness and calmness that envelops the landscape before the hustle and bustle of daily life begins.The air was crisp and fresh, carrying it with the scent of dew on the grass or flowers in bloom. Shop shutters will still be closed, and the city's usual cacophony of traffic and activity has not yet fully commenced.I stood up from my chair, and left my study room. I didn't leave my study room till the night ran out.My face looked stressed, but it was a big deal to me. I went to take my bath and got dressed.I always leave the mansion be

    ##Chapter 31Ego Check Michelle's POV I sat patiently across from the doctor and we both stared at each other, waiting for my dear husband's arrival. Our eyes were filled with determination, and a crazy smirk was laced on my lips as I remembered what I requested her to do.Few minutes ago,“Tell him to come down here, that I am throwing a tantrum,” I whispered, and she widened her eyes, looking at me like some crazy woman.“I can't do that when you are perfectly fine” she shook her head at me, trying to act like a professional. “Why can't you? I might end up destroying the entire place if you don't” I said, with a cunning smirk.“What? But___” she was saying, but I cut in. “I will make sure this doesn't affect your career” I said, as I scrutinized her with my eyes.I knew she was a career woman just by looking. She was at work that early to attend to me impromptu. She is probably married with kids, but still meets up with the appointment even though she wasn't aware before, and with

I wanted to get angry, but seeing her alive and healthy was enough to soften my heart.I asked the doctor, trying to confirm that she was fine, while I failed to notice her angry face. I was more shocked with her next move, telling the doctor to excuse us, while I was confused. ‘Why did she fake?’ I thought, feeling with her actions.She walked closer to me, and I was forced to ask her why she was doing that, but her reaction made me dumbfounded as I blamed myself.‘She didn't like it!’ I mulled in my head, remembering that

I am so ashamed of myself for wanting more.The atmosphere inside the car was so quiet and was so awkward even for me. When he asked about the appointment we have, I was hoping for a great conversation, but it failed..After some time, we got to Whitney's company and I became nervous. That was the first time I will officially report to the position. I was grateful that Lucian was around, I swallowed nervously as I looked at the tall building in front me, but then I figured something out, and I decided to take the lobby instead of the basement. I wanted to make a grand entrance, and make sure nobody dared to disrespect me. Also, I wanted to make it to some articles with Lucian. It's been so long since I saw Dell, my Ex-fiance. I wanted to bother him and his dirty girlfriend a little bit.“We a

She turned out to be the vice president's daughter. I was a little bit surprised because I thought her father would be the country's president.“Ma'am, I-I am … sorry” he said with a shaky voice, and his daughter's face was as good as the ghost.“Sorry? Why should you be sorry?” I asked, acting clueless of the situation. “I-I…” he wanted to talk, but he couldn't finish his words.“Probably because you are power drunk? So as your daughter. You oppress people in a company that is not even yours!” I flared.“You!” I faced his daughter, and she jerked up. “What's your name?” I asked angrily. “Cindy” she said in a low tone because she was very embarrassed. “Cindy? Which department?” I asked, and she couldn't answer. “Wow! You don't even work here, so you come to this company and boss people around like it'

She used to be dumb and obedient, but she was going beyond everyone's expectations.‘I won't let her get away with this!’ I screamed inwardly.“I am surprised, that crazy girl is becoming something else” my mom said angrily.“She must be out of her mind because of Lucian's support!” I exclaimed, knowing he was her backbone.“That's insane! How could you even make such a mistake of letting her catch you with that bastard!” Mom yelled at me. “I didn't know she would be there, I didn't know how she got the information” I explained, trying to make sure I didn't get blamed for that.“What? You don't know she will be there? You can't wait for just a day, Sharon! Just a night! You let your horniness get in the way!” She yelled.Mom knew about the affair between me and Dell.

These can't be found in my office” Mom shook her head vigorously. “She won't target you that soon, she needs people in the company. She won't fish all of us out, at least not yet” Dad said, and mom reasoned.“What can we do to stop that from happening?” Mom asked, and Dad shook his head at her.“For now… she would be untouchable because of Lucian, and she didn't have a dirty past, she can't be hunted that easily” Dad said, then realization hits me.“I have a way,” I said, interrupting the two. Mom gave me a cold glare, but dad was willing to hear me out.“What is that?” Dad asked. “Coming from someone that put us in trouble?” She scoffed at me angrily.“Trust me o

I am too busy to explain the situation to her.“Babe,” she called. “Huh?” I turned to her. “Why are they after her?” She asked slowly. “After whom?” I acted ignorant.“You know what I'm talking about, Harry,” she slapped my arm. “It was just an accident, the driver was probably drunk. C'mon, baby, don't think too much,” I replied with a forced smile.“I'm not thinking too much here, and don't take me for a fool, Harry. What's happening? You all seem like you know what's going on, and you, my husband-to-be, refuse to tell me what the problem is.”“You guys are scaring me,” she hissed angrily. “What are you saying, darling?” I dropped my phone and pulled her closer. “It's her family's struggles.

I watched Lucian's car retreating back, thinking of how shocked she would be.“What just happened?” I mumbled, and Darren breath heavily. “Trust me Ella, we will take care of this.” “C'mon, let's leave this place” he held my hand and placed his other hand on my waist to support me while walking.“Okay” I nodded subconsciously as I followed him to the car. The silence inside the car made him worried that he checked up on me almost every second. I reached out to my phone, trying to call Michelle, but Darren was quick to understand my intention. “Ella stop. He will take care of her.”Not too long,We arrived at his mansion and I was confused because we didn't plan on going there, also that was my first time v

I looked up, my heart leaping into my throat as I saw my wife, oblivious to the danger, stepping out into the street. A car, a blur of metal and headlights, hurtled towards her, with terrible intentions.“Michelle?” Time seemed to slow down. I was paralyzed for a split second, my mind screaming at me to act, to move, to do something.“Michelle!” Then, a surge of adrenaline took over, propelling me forward with a force I didn't know I possessed. I lunged, reaching out with all my might, grabbing her arm just as the car wanted to hit her.We tumbled to the pavement, the impact jarring my body. I held her tight, my heart pounding against my ribs. My eyes scanned her face, searching for any sign of injury. “Are you okay, michelle?” I panicked more, seeing how quiet she was.

    ##Chapter 104 Hit-and-run Michelle's POV. “Oh.” In an embarrassing move, I took a step back and tried to ask for Lucian's support Lucian, but he had already pulled away. 'Snitch!’ I screamed in my head with an awkward smile. “Oh? What if we are actually up to something? He is my boyfriend already!” “And also my boyfriend is not stupid and inconsiderate that would ask for such things here!” I smiled slightly when she yelled at me, knowing that I was merely trying to hide the fact that I was not purposefully accusing the man. I remained silent because I knew she might lose it if she found out that I thought that of her, and she was furious. I muttered, "I am sorry." She reprimanded me, saying, "You should apologize to my boyfriend, not me," and I laughed at her. "You are now becoming more mature." "I apologize, Mr. Stewart, for misinterpreting you." He was embarrassed by the entire situation, but my friend wasn't, so I bowed a little. She learned from me. How could she possibly

    ##Chapter 103 In Public Place Michelle's POV It's been a week and my husband has been constantly staying home with me. Working from home was cool, but I couldn't help thinking about Sharon's suspicious move. I stood beside the window thinking about the company, and how quiet everything was. “It's disturbing,” I muttered, referring to the silence. Not within the house, but the shareholders are being obedient as well, which was suspicious to Me. My father was still struggling to prove innocent as they kept adjourning the trial. I didn't care to even attend the trials because I knew it would only make me hate him more. I couldn't bring myself to forgive him after everything he did to me. “Wifey?” Lucian hugged me from behind, and kissed my neck softly. “Hubby” I moaned. “Why are they so quiet?” He asked, rubbing my belly softly. “I don't know, hubby. I'm just worried” I mumbled. “Worried? Why are you worried, my queen?” He looked at me. “I can't say, I think some

It was as if I were trapped in a silent film, watching the world go by in black and white, while my own heart was a broken record, stuck on the same melancholic tune. The air itself felt heavy, pressing down on me like a physical weight.“Sharon!” “Leave me alone!” I screamed, not believing what I faced. A little boy fuvked me till day br

Birds chirp merrily, and a gentle breeze rustles through the leaves, carrying the scent of blooming flowers. Lucian crossed his legs and read the magazines leisurely on the sofa and closed the bed.“It's a beautiful morning” I grunt lazily as I crawled towards him. “Morning baby” he dropped the magazine he was reading. He carried me up, and placed me on his lap.“How was your night?” He asked seductively, reminding me of what we had last night as he rubbed his hand softly on my belly. “Thanks to you.” I giggled, placing my head on his chest. “Are you feeling any pain?” He asked. “No, I'm not feeling pain, I'm still in my first trimester, what’s the rush?” I replied lazily. “Huh? I can't wait to become a father!” He smiled brightly, kissing my belly. “Dad love you so much, grow healthy, don't stress mommy” he said, rubbing my tummy. “You are being an extre

    ##Chapter 100The BarSharon's POV Late at night,Standing in front of the mirror, I can feel the excitement bubbling inside me. I slide into a sleek black dress that skims my body like a second skin. The fabric is soft and luxurious, and it clings to my curves in all the right places, making me feel both powerful and feminine. The dress has an off-the-shoulder design, exposing my shoulders and cleavage, adding a subtle hint of sensuality.As I twirl in front of the mirror, the hemline dances just above my knees, giving a playful glimpse of my legs. I choose a pair of bold red heels that elevate my stature and add a pop of color to my ensemble. With each step, I can feel the confidence radiating from me, and I know I’m ready to turn heads.“Dell would definitely fall for this” I muttered, as I finished off my look with a touch of smoky eye makeup and a soft, inviting fragrance that lingered in the air. Tonight, I’m not just wearing a dress; I’m embodying a vibe, ready to enchant the

We drove to a quiet villa which was purchased by my boss last year. “What are we doing here?” I asked, but he didn't answer me until we got to the doorstep. “Go meet your lover” he motioned me to go in, which I wasn't prepared for. “What? You mean—” “Yes, she's inside. Don't forget our agreement, you are getting married soon” he reminded me. “Of course” I nodded in agreement. He smiled, “turn off your phone, you have a day off today” then left the villa. The knot in my stomach tightened as I adjusted the collar of my shirt for the tenth time. My palms were slick with sweat, and I could feel my heart hammering against my ribs. I twisted the doorknob, and walked in carefully barely making a sound. But then I spotted a lady in a loose dress with her hair down sitting on the couch. “Elena” I mumbled beneath
