"I'm sorry Mr Leighton But I have to terminate the contract too, this company seems like it's crumbling to dust and I don't want to incur a loss," Mr Templeton said and just like their other three investors, he too got up from his seat and without giving the Leightons a chance to speak, walked out of the conference room.
Eric Leighton sighed in frustration while Lord Leighton just gave Kaden a murderous look saying,
"My company is crumbling to dust all because you were more focused on saving your wife rather than making sure that everything is running smoothly!"
"Grandfather it's nothing like---"
" Don't you dare talk back at me!" Lord leighton commanded and Kaden lowered his head, going completely mute, " investors have withdrawn all because of you! We are facing many losses, our finances have decreased by 30 percent all because you didn't focus on what's important!
from today onwa
Kaden pressed his back against the hospital wall and slowly sat on the floor looking dejected.He rested his elbows on his knees while his hands covered his face.He felt defeated and lost, he didn't know why all of this was suddenly happening to his wife.Could it be that she was going through danger because of him? He had a lot of enemies and perhaps maybe they were doing this to get their revenge on him."What the fuck did you do to my sister?!" he heard a voice say, and immediately knew who it belonged to, Veronica."You b*stard!" Veronica knelt next to him, fisted his bloody shirt in her hands and started shaking him violently, " You promised to keep her safe and to protect her but now she's fighting for her life in there all because of you -- you jerk!" She let go of his shirt and repeatedly hit his chest but Kaden didn't fight back, he just lowered his head in guilt and sadness."Baby calmed down," Jeremy pried the crazy woman a
"Will you tell me now what's wrong with my wife?" Kaden asked once he, Aiden and Veronica sat in the doctor's office,"Well I have both good news and bad news which one you want to hear first?" The doctor askedKaden and Veronica looked at each other then back at the doctor,"Start with the bad news," he said taking a deep breath and preparing himself."Well the bad news is that your wife is traumatized and getting normal sleep without having nightmares will be very hard for her and worse off is that we can't give her any sleeping pills because they might cause some damage. So the only way to get her out of it is by constantly supporting, comforting and assuring her and doing lots of things that will destruct her mind from all the events she went through."Kaden silently let our a soft sigh of relief, it wasn't as bad as he thought, he was going to be a present husband in her life and make sure he helps her out of the trauma."And the
"Police?" Kaden asked looking at the many police officers that were waiting for them outside the hospital building,"The police? What are they doing here? Did they come for my sister?" Veronica asked looking like she was panicking,"Relax sister in law, they won't take Mel away, she didn't do anything wrong," he assured looking at Mel then at the police officers," Yeah Mel is innocent she doesn't have a single crime bone in her body," Aiden tried to lighten the mood but it was a wrong time,"Good evening Mr Leighton," one of the cops said stepping closer to him,"We just wanted to ask Mrs Leighton a few questions regarding what happened at the residence,""I'm sorry but as you can see, She is sleeping right now, and the doctors advised her plenty of rest due to her condition," Kaden looked at Mel who was soundly sleeping,"Yes sure sir, we will come back tomorrow morning." The officer U-turned and he and his colleagues left the h
Two weeks later.Things were going from bad to worse,The company's sells were now down by hundred percent and all their investors had withdrawn from the company due to the fake news that circulated all over social media about the Leightons being involved with illegal dealings and also stealing other people's business ideas and no one on the market wanted to do business with them.Not only this but for some unknown reason, they found themselves in a lot of debts and their company and house was going to get mortgaged, in short the Leightons were ruined!Kaden sat in his office looking at the many papers In front of him, he didn't know what to do and how to save their family business."There is nothing else we can do bro it's over," Brandon said looking dejected, " we've lost everything!""No we just can't lose like this, I'm sure there is a way we can recover it all," he said looking through the papers again hoping that a miracle would pop up
Melissa sat in the living room with Aiden both of them quietly watching tv even though their minds wasn't in it.It was the day of the Auction, Kaden and Brandon had gone to the company to put everything in order and pack up their things while Aiden stayed back not in the mood to see how they were going to lose their company and go on the streets.Melissa was even more devasted, she was blaming herself for everything because all the problems started happening when she moved in with them.If she never got together with Kaden then maybe their company would still be standing and maybe grandfather wouldn't be on life support right now.While deep in thought, the loud buzzing of her phone grabbed her attention, she looked at the phone and it was a text from an unknown number,Unknown: if you are with people right now, go somewhere private. I want to talk to you.
" The auction will start in the next forty five minutes, it will be wise if we go now," the man Mr Delvin said, his voice laced with excitement."Yeah! I also want to go there as soon as possible so I can get front role seats and see how the Leightons will be humiliated!" The annoying lady said clapping her hands at the end." Good luck Mel, see you in court!" Mandy patted Melissa's head and laughed in a loud harsh way that made Melissa's heart burn with anger and hatred.She clenched her fists in pain and through teary eyes, watched as her enemies Happily and proudly left the house.Once they were gone, she unclenched her fist and lay on the floor crying her eyes out.She felt devasted and hopeless, everything was all over for her, she couldn't even go home now because the way home was already blocked by the police, and with the way her phone was shattered into pieces, she couldn't even call her husband and ask for his help."Why am I so st
Aiden checked on his phone to see the time and it was only two hours left for the auction to start. He sighed tears brimming in his eyes."We will lose it all in just two hours," he said looking at the seat next to him only to find it empty.'Huh, I thought she was sitting right here,'" Mel?" he call but there was no response."Did I zone out for that long that she went upstairs or something?" he asked himself getting off the couch and stretching his limbs.He started by checking the kitchen to see if she was having a snack but she wasn't there," She's probably sleeping, let me not disturb her or else she will lash out on me,"He went back into the living room and sat on the couch fixing his eyes on the TV again until he dozed off.An hour and half later, he woke up checked the time and only thirty minutes was left for the auction.Wanting someone to talk to about the incoming trouble, Aiden decided to go upstairs to c
"You really do love me?" Kaden asked caressing her cheek lovingly."Yes I love you with all my -----" he crushed his lips on hers cutting her off and she in turn kissed him back with her arms wrapped around his neck pulling him closer, both of them drowning in the sweet heartily missed kiss.The last time they kissed and actually had any physical contact was two weeks ago, three days before the incident with Anderson but now that everything was fixed, Melissa was in the mood for something more than just a kiss."I think we should go now, it looks like they won't stop for a while," she heard her father in law's voice followed by a few yeahs and footsteps disappearing." I love you so much," Kaden whispered to her through the kiss and this only made her few even more aroused,She wanted him to touch her everywhere and to bury himself deep inside.She wanted him to pleasure her in the best ways possible and with the dirty thoughts i
