GREYSON S POV I had a good mind not to attend that blasted meeting because I knew just what exactly would happen the way going to humiliate my wife, if nothing else happened then that definitely would I was sure of it and that was more than enough to quench any desire to attend that meeting but from the looks of things my wife did not feel the same way and she insisted that we attend the meeting. "Your adopted family is going to be there,'' I said to her in case she had missed that part of the message. "Do you really want to be in the same room with my parents and the Walters at the same time?!" She was biting my bottom lip contemplatively as she looked at me and then bring her eyes before bringing her hands over to my chin again and it immediately clenched the moment he touched me despite the years that we have been together every time that we touched felt like the first and it's still since their electrifying feelings throughout my skin what's that was not what I was supposed to
Calista's POV I took a huge generous gulp of air as my fingers twist on my lap and I reached for my husband's fingers to get some reassurance but before I could even get close my husband stood at his full height and then he was shooting daggers at his parents with his eyes."what do you mean by A real woman I'm already married to one?" I felt my eyes moisten as I thought about his unconditional love for me even faced against his own parents but I will soon about to find out that it was not enough to fight everything. "What difference is there between her and a piece of lifeless little rock on the straight? Nothing, she can't give you a child! Can't you see that she is about to end the lineage of two families at the same time?!" His father back the team also standing up and shooting daggers at his son as with his eyes."You have to stop acting like a whipped fool and start acting like a king or I will find someone else will do it…" My husband's chest seemed to deflate as if somebo
CALISTA'S POV "What are you doing in our house you crazy b****?" It was a day after the meeting and I had to come to confront my adopted parents they have been watching TV before I walked in front of them marching in with a frown embedded on my face, and those were the first words that my adopted mother used to greet me at the moment she spotted me with her eyes but her underbelly head any candle at all to mine as I gript the bag that was in my arm so that I will not end up flinging it at them. "Tell me why did you do it?'' I demanded to know and then my voice was even cracking as I spoke but I couldn't care any less at this point because I was just so furious. "You could have chosen any other woman in the entire world and you had to choose Bella. You had to choose Bella."I repeated myself so that the impact of my words could reach their ears. Mr. Walter stood up and looked at me with an expression that seemed like it was holding back intense anger. "Look Calista I will overlook
GREYSON'S POV I was pacing around my bedroom sending several calls to my wife's phone but everything was getting sent to voicemail. I couldn't believe the text that she had sent me earlier. It just read; "I won't be coming home tonight, I'll be staying in a hotel." I couldn't believe it how could she just tell me that so easily as if there was no problem at all I knew that she was having the hardest time accepting this and I was not to be expecting her to accept it either I would have literally watched all the seas on earth evaporate before I would let another man touch her. How could I possibly expect her to sleep under the same roof knowing that I was going to be with her sister that night… But even still I was still feeling selfish and I wanted her to be here to at least know that she was safe and not trying anything crazy like that tonight when she tried to overdose herself on the drugs that my mother had given her. I knew what it was like to have those kinds of thoughts that
CALISTA'S POVThe next morning came with the sun spilling its rays into the room and I picked my head up from the pillow that was still drying for my tears I have been unable to sleep for most of the night and a few moments that I had gotten that tiredness had pushed me into slumberland it was just to the terrible nightmare of me going home and then my husband was standing at the door with all of my bags packed outside. I asked him why he did so and then he looked at me with a scornful expression on his face and said that he was now with a woman who would give him the child that he wanted then I saw Bella stepping out and she already had a big belly and I was just staring at him totally astounded when he then called a guard to talk me out of the palace and that was when I woke up screaming to the top of my lungs. After that, I didn't bother going to sleep but decided to contemplate on the situation that I had fallen into in the cruel hand of fate. My eyes glanced over to the clock
GREYSON'S POV I wanted to rush over to my wife so that she would not misunderstand this situation. The only reason why I've been on her sister's side was because it just wasn't hard to believe that I was actually on her side so that she would not throw a big tantrum. In fact, I was actually surprised that it had taken her this long to slap Bella. I had expected her to snap a long time ago. Like at the very moment when Bella had arrived introducing herself as the Bride that my family had been presented by the Walters, I saw her face was immediately drained of every drop of blood until she looked as if she had grown at least 30 years older in less than 3 seconds that it took her sister to walk into the same so shamelessly. I was also so shocked that I myself was finding it hard to look for the most suitable words to say at such awkward and embarrassing moments because if they were not feeling embarrassed I definitely was for them. This was literally a bride that I had rejected
Callista's POV I felt a sudden bitter taste rise up to the tip of my tongue and my stomach twisted up like knots being roughly tied together when Bella said that. The only thought that kept ringing in my mind was that it was a huge disgusting lie that couldn't possibly be true.My husband was unfortunately impotent, a professional doctor had told us this information after going through a certified test. He couldn't father a child so who was the father of the baby that Bella claimed was in her womb? I was about to raise my voice instantly to tell her to prove that she was truly pregnant at all but that was when she brought out the results and showed it off proudly as if it were a trophy. The results passed through the hands of my adopted parents and then my in-laws and they were nodding their heads smiling from ear-to-ear saying that finally, their son had slept with a real woman as though I was a pitiful caricature of a woman. Then I was broken out of my thoughts by his fingers s
"Honestly I was surprised to see you," Leon said to me and I looked at him across the table of the cafe that we were sitting at and then I held the coffee cup in my hand gripping it as if my life depended on the ceramic piece. I couldn't believe that I was going to be having this conversation with him right now it wasn't something that I wanted to share with anybody but Leon was a close friend all the way from childhood and we are we connected before I married my husband so I felt like he was somebody that I could trust with this more than anybody else. But of course, trust was something that had been broken by him before when he had kissed to my sister Bella, but then yes have passed since that incident and it was because of that betrayal that had married my husband and discovered that I love him more so he had actually done me a favor but the truth was that I have to still be cautious. "Look Leon I know that you are a very busy man and I don't want to bother you with this but…
Epilogue Calista pov "Kids don't get so close to the water!" "Don't worry Mom, we aren't that close!" I eased my back into my reclining chair with a groan. "Gosh, they can be so stubborn at times... I wonder who they take it from," I said looking at my husband and he smiled back at me his eyes sparkling through his sunglasses. "Come on, sweetheart, you know they take it from the both of us." "Actually..." I was about to deny it and then just resigned to my fate trying to enjoy the sun at the beach, my eyes straight over to the beach as I saw my three children friends playing together and the sight alone was enough to make my heart immediately bubble-up with joy. When I was much younger I remembered Bella and her parents getting ready for the beach but I was never allowed to come with them on the rare occasion that I was actually allowed to come along. It was just to be their maid. I honestly thought that I would never have a family of my own. I sighed, this was going to mak
Calista povI was really planning to wait for the police but that was until I heard the cry of my children coming from inside the warehouse that I had traced Bella's phone to. Unable to hold myself back anymore I decided to enter inside of the warehouse through a back entrance. I had actually been familiar with this place before when I had first married my husband, however the business here had eventually collapsed and it was abandoned so I knew a secret entrance in the back way.The place was now so abandoned that trees were even going around it and it looked like a miniature wood, this proves to be in my advantage eventually because when I went to the back I was able to pick up a dead branch and then when I saw some thugs that wear circulating around the place probably as good as I was able to knock both of them cold with the branch that I had the second one proved to be a bit of a problem so I had to hit him a couple of times but when I checked out he was still breathing.My throat
Grey povAt my very last breath I told my brother to leave because I was not going to tolerate any of his nonsense anymore however instead of shutting up right there I'm turning around while he stroke his head what he just said to is something I could not bring out of my head he then said that there was no need for me to be in denial that Calista had never been satisfied by me and so she went over to see a real man that could do it.And that was indeed the last straw that broke the camel's back the next thing that happened was that I instantly zoomed over my office until I was standing right in front of him and before he could even blink his eyes I grabbed him and pulled it up squeeze his neck so tight that he could barely even breathe and he was kicking his legs about but I just kept on squeezing him my mind was telling me that if I just put in a little more effort his oxygen supply will be completely cut off and then he will just die.Revenge that had been driving me for what felt l
Grey's pov Even when I was keeping an expressionless face everything inside of me was telling me to brush this woman's head against the side of the wall but it's that I was somehow able to keep myself and I remembered everything that Calista had told me about how I was always losing my temper but this was a lot for a man to bare and when she finally said that the children beautiful twins that Calista were not actually mine. I was ready to squash her skull at this point then Calista came forward with her hands planted on her hips and then she asked Bella what was the source of that horrible accusation that was when she presented the contents of the envelope stating that it was a DNA result between me and the children and then she said that it was more than enough proof to show that I was not the father of them. I took the envelope and I looked at the contents then after I was done doing so I really began to shred the paper up as if it was nothing and so it this woman was nothing mo
Calista povThe fury that was coming out of him right now could be felt from a mile away and I thought that I was going to suffocate by just looking at him I have seen my husband angry before ulcer of many of the times does anger was directed at me but I had never seen him this furious this bloodthirsty and I knew that stiff look in his eyes he wasn't joking at all when he said that he was going to kill both his twin brother and Bella. But I just couldn't let that happen because nobody would even care about the crimes that have been committed behind the closed door if he killed them rather the only thing that will be advertised on was the murder that everyone was going to witness because I seriously doubt it when he said that he was going to murder them even if they were in a public place or not with the way his eyes were burning with fury which was exactly why I could not let him go.I tried to tell him that they were definitely going to get what's coming to them and then we began t
Calista pov The drive back to the palace was not as quiet as the one into my father's house because as soon as we were far enough from my father's house Gray asked me what my plan was after we had gotten all the information we needed on Bella, and she eventually got the punishment that she deserved.I was looking out the window screen at that moment when he asked the question trying to ignore him but I decided that if I didn't answer him he was just going to keep talking about it throughout the entire ride back to the palace so admitted to him that I was going to have a simple life with my kids and raise them alone he almost packed abruptly if it wasn't for observation that we were in a busy road then his eyes were over to me as he asked me what I meant by that. I looked at him straight in the eyes and told him that I meant every single word that I said and I seriously doubted that it needed any kind of explanation.His voice suddenly rose not in anger but it was definitely rising, h
Calista povI really miss to the days that I see my children all the time at least I didn't have to wait for literally weeks before I could look at them it could be a handful at times but when I didn't see them like this always feel anxious it was only the fact that they were under the care of their grandfather that made me able to sleep at night if not I would have been so troubled if they were actually in this Palace with Bella next door.After realizing that this woman was actually capable of poisoning her own son it would be no surprise to me at all if she attempted the same thing on my children and I was not going to let her get the chance to do something so horrible.While we were leaving the palace Grey said that we should take one of his less more conspicuous cars and that he was going to drive I really didn't care who drove as long as we got to see my children then when we8 approaching the car he went ahead of me and open the door to the front seat I just passed him by and we
Calista pov "I'm going to see my children today," I told Grey. He responded by his face contouring up with confusion though I don't understand what was so perplexing about what I just said. I had come to his room with the intention of taking his laundry to wash while I was actually there to tell him that I was going to see my children that very day. There was also another reason why I came here but this was one I was telling him about for now.He have been looking at me so expectantly the moment I walked in as if he was expecting me to jump right into the bed with him I could even see how he was intentionally closing on the way to attract me so I intentionally kept my eyes away from him but the time I was actually looking at him he seemed so frustrated but I was ignoring him."Don't you think it will be better if we visit the kids together?" He said suggestively and I mused on his idea then after a couple of seconds I shook my head negatively showing that I was not interested in tha
Calista pov The next day did not go exactly how as we planned it it was almost as if we have forgotten that the nanny was supposed to take care of the son because that was the worst timing possible the child fell sick, meaning that she was not allowed to leave his side for the entire day as he was not going to school so she would have to cater for his needs the whole day.The night before I had actually given her my number in the living room so that we will be able to communicate without meeting each other physically and avoiding the situation where I have to hide in the wardrobe from Bella she called me and it seemed as if she was about to burst into tears when she confessed that the child had suddenly fallen ill and she had to take care of him for the whole day.Just like that the time that I have been relying on since last night after she was shouted at by Bella but then I asked her to explain exactly what Bella did as usual she was a little hesitant but this time it was easier fo
