Immediately we got into the car, Max took out his phone and made a call. “I want you to find any details regarding a woman called Mrs Iris, I don't know her last name. Just find out anything you can."

“Are you skeptical about her? Do you think she is lying?" I asked. Trina has fallen asleep, as soon as she has apologized.

“You know I don't trust anyone, especially someone who just managed to find my daughter. I know she brought her back and I'm grateful for that, but I just want to make sure everything she said was correct. The police will search for cameras around where she said she found Trina and we will know."

"I understand you, I'm not saying you are doing anything wrong. When it comes to Trina I want you to be sure. I want to be sure too.”

Max took Trina in his arms, looking at her with so much love. His eyes was sad. "If I had lost her I don't know what I would have done Selena. She is my shining light, both of you are. I don't want to ever loose any of you. Ever.”

    Days pass and it was filled with laughter and happiness. My days was filled with Max, Trina and Evergreen company. Taking over the company was easy than I thought it will be. People respected me, the board of directors were all agreeing, not that they had a choice. I was here to save them and earn them money.Daniel and Trina have not been seen even by the press. Since the press conference, the press had taken to following me and Max around and displaying every little detail of our relationship they could capture.My parents still call and berate me for whatever reason they think. It can be I wore something I'm not supposed to or I was seen with someone I'm not supposed to be see with.Max couldn't careless of what the press says and I wish I could be like him but I always want to be perfect for him and make sure he doesn't have anything to worry about.“Are you ready?" Max voice came from my room door.“Just a minute." I said.“I have something for you." Max walked in and opened a bo

    We turned and saw Trina and Daniel. I sighed, I was getting tired of their bark and no bite. So far I have won. I got the best husband, I've got a sweet girl I can call my own and now I have Evergreen. So them always talking and throwing insults was doing nothing for them because I discovered their words don't get to me anymore.Max face was no longer warm and easy. Now he was angry and barely containing it but I saw that he had not respond making me think he was giving me the chance to answer.“Well if there is anyone who is a gold digger, I think it is you Daniel. You better correct your wife.”Daniel face turned red with anger. "You…"But he was cut short by Max. “Don't even think about it. What ever you want to say don't."I could see Daniel swallow back his words. “June let's go.” He tried turning her away but she wouldn't listen. “I'm not going anywhere. Selena has destroyed my life. And she called herself my friend, what friend does that. Just so you know I'm coming for you, i

    I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face. I turned around and saw Max staring at me. I flushed, removing my gaze from his face, shying away from him.“Have you been staring at me?" I asked.“I woke up a while. Waiting for you to wake up or at least turn around so I can look at your beautiful face."I blushed again. This was so embarrassing, why do I always blush at what e says.“Hey don't be shy. I like watching you blush." Max said with a smile on his face.“Hey don't say that." I smacked him lightly.“Last night was amazing baby. I hope…” He stopped.I raised my eyebrows. "You hope what?”He lower his gaze. Looking at the everywhere but my face. "I hope you don't regret it.”I've never seen Max so uncertain of himself. "I don't regret it. I'm the one that said I love you. Remember?”Saying it again, I winced because now I remember he didn't say it back. "And you never said it back.”Max smiled now. His uncertainty vanished. “Say it again."“Hell no. You say it. I've said i

    Max's mother gave the woman a hard piercing stare. Well I was prepared for this too. People are not going to just see June's true colors. I wonder if everyone knew June lied about her pregnancy or how Daniel and her got married but I'm sure she was not going to tell the truth about the kind of person she was.“Yes I do. I'm now the owner of her company and her husband and I were in a relationship in the past. I'm sure you have seen the press conference." I replied.The woman narrowed her eyes on me. Shocked, I replied back. Hmm, so she thought I was going to shy away from that fact. Well she had another thing coming.“My daughter-in-law has answered your question. Does anybody have a question too." Silence followed that statement. I could see where Max got his authority streaks from.“Oh Heather, stop being dramatic.” Another woman said.Heather smiled, so did I. These women were strange and not that strange at the same time.“Now can we order?"We ordered what we wanted. And everyone

    Having this woman here was going against whatever contract she had signed. But why will she come here? Why will she risk showing her face to me or Max for that matter. She had five away her right of ever becoming a mother to Trina.I stared at her for so long, my driver asked me if I was alright. “What are you doing here? You are not supposed to be here?"She smiled bitterly. “I'm here to see my daughter."Was she drunk? I turned to my driver. "Call Max and tell him what is going on.” I turned back to her. "As for you. You don't have a daughter here. You remember don't you? Signing away that right for money. So go away now, before Max comes here because I don't know what he will do to you."“You can't drive me away. Max can't do anything to me or I'll tell the world how Trina was born."I saw red. Who was she to come into our life giving out threats.“You are not her mother then. A mother will not want to see her child hurt."“You are not her mother either, you just married her fath

    We woke the next morning with things on our mind. I wasn't scared of Kelly and the fact that she could take Trina. Nobody or judge could grant that woman custody, so we were safe but I was scared of the people who could use her to harm us, especially me. People like June, like Daniel and enemies of Max.I saw Max in the kitchen as I came down to grab some water. His face was marked with worry and I was sad for him. I know Trina does not know who her mother is, Max didn't tell her because it was not easy telling a four year old the woman who gave birth to her gave her away and wanted nothing to do with her, so it was understandable he didn't tell her. But now that same woman was here and she still wanted nothing to do with Trina, she wanted money and payback.Payback for what, that I don't know. Max had said their relationship, if you could call what they had a relationship. He had said it was a one night stand and she appeared with a baby and convinced him for a DNA. But what if there

    I was still dumbstruck, it was an honor to be this child mother. She was sweet, happy and bold. I went to her and gathered her in my arms.“Yes you can honey. It's an honor to be your mother."“I love you mummy."“I love you too."“What about me?" Max asked moving towards us. He took us in his arms.“I love you too daddy."“I love my girls."The oven beep and we let go. “I need to check that. Trina we have something to tell you."“Really?"“We are going to Grandma's house and we will spend the next few days there."“I love Grandma. She makes the best spaghetti ever."“My daughter has so much love in her."I shook my head at Max. “And we love her for that."“Selena I need to tell you something.""Is something wrong?”"No not really.”"Okay, just give me a second.” I sliced a piece of the cake we made and gave Trina a plate and then we told Mrs Rolly to stay with her.We up to my empty room.

    As I asked him the question, his expression changed. He smiled at me and gave me a peck on the cheek. He went to his mother and did the same. It was as if he wanted to ignore what happened, and he didn't want to worry us but I was not going to have none of it.He will tell me what went wrong. "You don't have to pretend you didn't hear the question I just asked.” Max looked at me with a solemn expression. “I'm just tired. Is Trina back from school?”“Yes she is, Mrs Rolly picked her up but she is taking a nap now. I ask again, what happened, what does Kelly want and why did she meet up with June?”Max growled loudly, as if answering that question was going to make him angry again. This just shows I was right that whatever happened was bad.“Kelly wants me to pay her every month." “Did she say why she is making such ridiculous claims?" Max's mother asked."She is angry I abandoned her. That giving birth to my heir warrants payments not just a single pay out. She also says if I don't,

    EPILOGUEFour Years Later“You look beautiful, love, but Trina's impatience to see you is going to make Mrs Rolly have more gray hair.” I laughed, “I'm almost done." Max grabbed me by the waist and just kept on looking at me.“You know I am not done, you have to let me go.” I said, seeing he was not letting go."What's remaining? Your jewelry?”"Yes.”"I can help with that.” He took the jewelry box he had bought last week for this specific function and put it round my neck.I was putting on a white flowing gown, my neck and shoulders were not covered and the scar of the gunshot wound was still visible.Thinking about that kidnapping sent a shiver down my spine. “Are you cold?" “No, I just remember what happened to give me this scar."Max's face changed, Heather told me how Max almost gave up and he went over the edge. The months that went by after that were so bad. I was in the hospital for two months because I fell into a coma. Waking up and I was told June died, after she shot me

    I regained consciousness to find myself tied to a chair. I still felt dizzy from whatever was used to make me lose consciousness in the first place and had a blasting headache. I shook my head to clear my head.I looked around and it was like I was in an empty warehouse. My life couldn't have felt anything less that good right now. I can't believe I've been kidnapped, in my current emotional state.I hadn't the faintest idea why I was…wherever I was. It seemed ridiculous that I would be anyone’s personal ransom bait, and I couldn’t see how anyone would know where I was at the moment I was taken. But to somebody, it must have been quite a work. I wondered what my abductor could want from me, I tried thinking about any possible person that could hate me enough to kidnap me and the only set of people that came to mind was June and Daniel and I did not think they had the guts to do this.There was a gag converting my mouth, catching sight of the camera on the wall across from me for the

    “You are lying. You are a liar, I don't believe anything you say." I screamed at him, my body shaking. Why will he hurt me like this? “I’ve loved you Max and you lie to me. Why?”"Please Selena, I'm not lying. I swear I'm not.” He moved from where he was to take my hand and I swatted him away."Don't touch me. Don't touch me, you have no right to. You kept quiet about so many things, you knew I worked at your company but you said nothing…” tears dropped from my eyes as I remembered the remaining things he had just said.“You…” I tried to continue but my throat closed up, anger and the sob trying to break out didn't help."I know I lied, please I know that but baby I couldn't tell you. I was afraid, afraid if I told you I've seen you for years before we got married you wouldn't want anything to do with me. That you will be wary, so I pretended to be a stranger, I pretended to not show I am in love with you but…”I couldn't take any more of his explanation. “Stop!! Just stop. I don't ca

    We watched her sleep for a few minutes before we left to go to our own room, holding hands. Today has been perfect, from the good news that Max gave me of Stella not being in cahoot with Daniel and June to the best dinner date.“She’s perfect, very perfect.” I said to Max because it has truly been."I know I tell you everyday, but you raised an angel.”“I know, I'm so proud of her. She is just four going five in some months and she has a good head on her shoulders. I'm happy she was drawn to you immediately and you are perfect Selena. You are good for her.”I smiled at him, happy she did too and happy he sees me this way. “Well, it's good her crazy mother left. Do you still keep track of her?"The situation with Heather was still fresh in my mind. Especially how June wanted to use her against me, it was with planning and all we prevented her from meeting Trina again after she almost gave me a heart attack when she met Trina at school. "Always, until I'm sure she is not going to cause

    He raised his head as he stepped out of the elevator and looked at me with a wide smile. I walked up to him and gave him a big kiss, not caring about the audience then I hugged him.His eyes were filled with love as he stared at me and took my bag to hold it. We walked out of my company building, thankfully there were less paparazzi as the day went by.We waited for the car to come around and we entered into his car with a driver at the driver's seat.“How was your day? Was there any trouble?" He asked, taking my hands in his as he caressed them.“It was good, just too much workload. Then you gave me the news. Ehe… about that, I'm just glad she is clean and not in cahoot with them. She was down today and I asked what happened, so I could help.”My train of thoughts stopped and I got distracted by his eyes, as he gave me his undivided attention. He noticed and a smirk appeared on his face.I know even if he wanted me to go back to my everyday life, he was still worried about me. That's

    “Let him in. I guess, what he has to say is important." Stella left my office to let him in.He entered my office, looking every bit angry but trying to hide it. "Good morning Mrs Stone. I see you are back to the company, you were gone for a while.”"Well Mr Oliver, my husband and I had things to take care of. I'm sure you can understand that.” I'm not above using my husband to make someone afraid and that purpose was achieved because he tried to mask his shocked face."I know that, I'm sorry for the things that have happened to your family.”I took his fake apology at face value and nodded in understanding. “Is there an important issue you came here to tell me?"I asked him, he needed to leave and go back to his work. “No… I just wanted to see you, I'll go back to my work now.”I could tell he would have said more if I hadn't mentioned Max. He always wants to try and put me in my place, but this time he couldn't. The fear of my husband is always something I will use.After he left,

    The day started as every other day but the difference was I was going back to my company today.I woke up to an empty bed. Max wasn't beside me, I panicked until I heard the shower running. He was getting ready earlier than usual, since I married him he hasn't left tge house without us getting ready together.I heard the shower turned off and he stepped out of the bathroom. “Oh you are awake. I hope I didn't wake you up?"“No you didn't, I just woke up and I couldn't find you. Are you in a hurry? You got up earlier than normal.” I stretched to check my phone on the nightstand close to my bed and the time read six in the morning.“I know this isn't normal but I have a meeting as early as eight and I want to go in first before having this meeting. It's important." Max shouts from the wardrobe.“Oh okay. I just wanted to tell you that I'm going to work today. I know you will like that.” I stood up from the bed, walking to see him still in his towel as he looked for what to wear.He heard

    He lightly opened the door as he entered our room, I turned my head to the other side of the bed trying to hide from.I know he is worried but I can’t seem to stop feeling like everything has been my fault. I needed to get back to work but I was scared. There were videos of me being surrounded by the group of women and the comments were not pretty.“I know you are not sleeping.” Max says, his voice low and sad.“I just…I can’t get out of this feeling Max. it feels like my life is crashing and everything is my fault.” Max sighs deeply and walks to where I was laying on the bed, I moved to make more room for him. “I'm trying Selena. I'm trying to give you space, but at the same time I don't want you to hide your feelings from me. I'm the last person you should do that to.” He took a deep breath again as he continued."You have me Selena, I will tell you that every time. Nothing will make me blame you for something that is not your fault and you were not able to stop. I love you and I

    I crumbled to my knees, my hands over my face trying to ignore the shouts from the women. My heart still beating so fast, that's when I felt someone touch me, removing my hands from where it was.It was Max, “Max," I say softly. “They hate me. I shouldn't have come."“Shh, shh, shh. You are okay, everything is okay. We are going home now." He lifted me up in his arms, my face in his neck, stopping my eyes from meeting anyone's.We got into the vehicle my arms wrapped around Max so tight I was afraid he might suffocate but I could not let him go. That's when I remembered, “Trina."“What did you say love." “Trina, where is she? Oh my God did something happen to her?" The last time I saw her she was with Max's mother and Mrs Rolly.“She is fine, she's with my mother and Mrs Rolly. Although she is worried, they all are but I told them you are fine. We will meet at home and they will all smother you with love."“I'm sorry I made today end, they just kept saying things and I tried to tell
