SELENA

"Ma'am, we went ahead and held the interview like you told us. And we have already picked out the people that we are going to hire. You just need to go see them. They all have good portfolios and they will be a good addition to our design department," my assistant, a woman called Abigail told me.

I was in my office. I rubbed my temples. I was feeling quite drained. I had not had a good rest ever since Ariel got sick, and now that she was better, I had to rush to the company to take care of work.

I could not complain though, even when I had suffered through even tougher days. Back then, I was pregnant with Ariel and entertaining clients. There could be nothing harder than that really.

"Fine , you can ask all of them to come in. I'll see them," I said.

"You can give them another interview if you want to be sure that we have hired the right people, ma'am," Abigail told me.

I shook my head. "No, I don't need to do that. I trust you Abigail and I trust that you know how to do a

    JOLIE"Then how am I supposed to explain myself if you are not even going to believe me? Selena, I know that you hate me. And yes, you have every reason to hate me after the things that I did to you, but I am here because I really do need a job. I don't have any plans. What could I possibly do to you? Adam has left me with nothing. I know that he is begging to get back together with you. And I know that you have a daughter for him. You guys are the perfect family. Do you really think that I can do anything to come in between you guys?" I asked Selena. I made sure to make myself look as pitiful as possible. Lucian had warned me that I could not make my hate for Selena known. I had to act like I was very sorry. Besides, I was scared that Lucian was going to come for me if I ruined his plan, so I made sure to do as he told me. "Wait, how did you know that my daughter is Adam's?" Selena asked me. I lowered my head when I heard this and cursed under my breath. Lucian was the one who t

    SELENAI looked at Jolie, confused. Why was she asking me this? "I don't think it has anything to do with you if I am going to get back together with him or not," I said rudely. Jolie nodded her head and smiled sadly. "Yes. You are right about that. It has nothing to do with me if you are going to get back with him or not, but I just think that I should warn you. The past seven years of my life has been hell. I didn't want to let go because of my pride, but now that I am out of the marriage, I realise that I have been living in bondage all these while. Adam is not a good person. You should never get involved with him again" Jolie told me. "Once again, Jolie, you don't get to tell me what I can and can't do. How your marriage with Adam was like is none of my business. You wanted to get married by all means, and you got what you wanted. Whatever happened to you is your business. You can take it as karma for what you did to me!" I said hatefully. I did not mind that my words sounded

    ADAMI was shocked when I heard Ariel say this. I had no idea how I was supposed to answer her question. "Who....who told you this?" I asked her. My heart was beating fast against my chest. I did not want to tell Ariel the truth yet because her mother was not here. It was up to Selena how and when we were going to tell Ariel that I was her father. But, I also didn't want to lie to hurt her. I was really excited. Ariel smiled at me. It was the most beautiful I had ever seen in my life. She was just as beautiful as her mother. "Well, I overheard my mother talking with her friend since. She said that my daddy is in this city. She also said that my daddy is very handsome. You are the only man who has come to see me ever since we got here. So I think that you're my daddy," Ariel said to me. I had no idea what I was supposed to say. Ariel was very smart. I was proud that I had such a smart girl as my daughter. I was not by her side when she was born, but she was still very smart. "Wel

    I rolled my eyes, highly irritated. I was tired and I was definitely not in the mood to argue with this man. "I know I have been divorced two times. You don't need to remind me about it!" I snapped at my father. I walked over to my grandfather and took his arm. I helped him sit down on the couch,while I completely ignored my father. I knew that my father was angry, but I did not care. He brought this on himself. My grandfather was the one who raised me while my father was busy doing whatever. I was not going to show respect to a man who had never cared about me before. "Do you think that this is a joke, Adam?! Do you know that you're a laughing stock back at home?! Everyone knows that you've been married and divorced many times! No matter how rich you are or how great your company is, they will still see you as someone who can't keep a marriage! Do you know how that affects your mother and I?!" My father yelled at me. "I don't know why this would affect you, Philp. You already to

    ADAM"You...this is not over yet! You have a responsibility to fulfil as my son! I let you do whatever you want all these years, I am not going to let you do as you want anymore. You've already proven that you can't take care of your affairs on your own!" My father said. He walked out of my house angrily. I knew glk that this was not the end. I was going to hear from my father again. He was someone who would go extra miles just to get his own way. Anyway, I was going to be prepared when he came back. There was no way I would let him push me around . "Do you really have to be so cold to your father?" My grandfather finally spoke up. I sneered at him. "I thought that you were not going to say anything," I said. "Well, from the look of things, you were able to handle it. No matter what, that man is your father. You don't have to be so cold to him!" My grandfather said. "Well, he has never been a father. He can't just come demanding that I help him when he has always treated me ba

    ADAMMy grandfather looked away guiltily when I asked him this. But I was not going to drop the topic. If he knew that Selena was pregnant, then he should have told me about it! Why did he keep it away from me?!"Grandfather What were you thinking? Do you know how much time in her life I have missed thanks to you?! You could have just told me! If I had known that Selena was pregnant with my child back then I...." My grandfather did not let me finish what I was saying. "And what would you have done if you had known that she was pregnant with your child? Would you not have kicked her away coldly?! You were convinced that she cheated on you back then and nothing anyone said was able to change your mind. You should have thought about this before you made a foolish decision back then. Selena was hurt by your actions and if she didn't want to tell you about her baby, then she has every right to keep it away from you!" My grandfather told me. I really hated the fact that he kept reminding

    "Ariel how about we..." I was about to say something to my daughter when I heard someone call out my name. "Selena!" I turned to see the person who called me once. I frowned when I saw his face. It was Adam's father. Philip. What was this man doing here?!He had always hated me. He hated the fact that I was married to his son and he made sure to make my life hell in the years I was married to Adam. He and his wife did not even bother to come to the wedding. What was he doing here?I knew that the man hated me, and I felt the same way towards him. I did not think that a person like him was fit to be a father at all. I didn't see him after the divorce, who knew I was going to run into him here? He did not even live in this city, so what was he doing here?!"I see you are back. You are such a cunning woman. Since my son already divorced you, then you should leave him alone. Why the hell are you still showing up around him? Do you think that you still have a chance to be with him?! As

    SELENA"You....do you really think that you're doing yourself a favour by acting like this?" He asked me angrily. I didn't want to hear anything else that Philp had to say. I was about to leave with Ariel when I saw Lucian approaching us. I frowned when I saw him. Why was he always everywhere I was? It was starting to get a bit suspicious. What was he even doing here, anyway? Lucian had a big smile as he walked over to us. Ariel was the first person that he acknowledged. "Ariel...how have you been?" Lucian asked her. Lucian had visited her a lot when she was in the hospital and they had both become good friends. Ariel seemed really happy to see him. "I am fine! How are you doing, Lucian?! You said you would come to see me after I left the hospital, but I didn't see you. You don't want to see me again?" Ariel asked as she pouted. Lucian laughed and shook his head, "no. Of course not. It's just that I have been busy. But I'll definitely come to see you from now on. You don't hav

    SELENAI looked up at Adam, "where is Lucian?" I remembered that he was the one who saved me. Adam patted my hand, "Don't worry about it. He is fine. You just have to make sure that you are fine. That person did not do anything to you right? Did you see his face?"I shook my head at this. I had a feeling that Adam was trying to change the topic. What happened?!"I did not get to see his face. He was wearing a mask and I could not see what he looked like..." I let my voice trail off when I said this. "Don't worry, I am going to find the person who did this to you. Don't you worry," Adam assured me. I nodded my head. "But...I remember that he said something about the person who had asked him to kidnap me. He said that it's not someone that I can afford to provoke. Anyway, I could tell from his tone that it was a man. There aren't a lot of men who hate me" I looked at Adam when I said this. I did not want him to think that I was accusing his father, but there was no other person I c

    SELENAI was really scared, I had no idea what the man was going to do to me. He was standing outside, and I had thought about escaping, but I knew that I could not get away from him fast enough. I would just be putting myself in more danger if I decided to run away. I just decided to pray that whoever decided to kidnap me was not doing it because he wanted me dead . I just hoped that Adam would realise that I was missing and he would come running to help me. We had argued before I was kidnapped. What if he thought that I was angry and that was why I didn't want to see him?And my daughter, Ariel, I was really worried about her. I wondered what she was doing now and if she was fine. The door was pushed open just and the masked man walked in again. He walked over to me and untied me. Then, he pulled me up and started to drag me away. "Hey, where are you taking me?" I asked him. He scoffed at me. "You don't get to ask me any questions. Just come with me and do as I tell you if y

    I had no idea how long I had been awake for. I thought the person who kidnapped me would come see me soon, but I had been waiting for quite some time and yet no one had come into the small room. "Hey, is there anyone out there?! Can you please let me go? I am someone with a lot of money. I can change your life. Please....please just let me go and I will pay you right?" I begged. The door was pushed open and a man walked in angrily. He was wearing a mask and so I could not see what he looked like. "Shut the heck up or else you are going to get it from me. What the heck are you making a mess for?" He yelled at me. Even though I was really scared, I tried my best to act like it was all fine. "Who sent you to me?! You have to let me go now or else you are just going to regret it!"" I yelled. The person walked over to me and he raised his hand at me, as if he was going to hit me. My heart was beating fast against my chest but the slap that I was expecting, did not come. "You had be

    LUCIAN"Do you really think that Selena would be touched if you do these things for her?" Jolie asked me. I glared at her with a menacing look on my face. "What did you say?" Jolie scoffed and looked at me straight in the eye. "Do you really think that she cares for you? You are doing so many things to break her and Adam up but even if they break up, what are the chances that she will get together with you? Think about this carefully. You are just like me, Lucian. Selena and Adam don't care about both of us. You are just wasting your time with her!" Jolie snapped at her. "Shut up! Shut up right now!" I yelled. What I hated the most was being reminded of the fact that despite being in Selena's life for a long time, she had never really looked at me. She was always running after Adam no matter what he did to her. That really drove me mad. She scoffed when I said this. "Oh please. You know that you're just wasting your time with her and that is why you're mad at me! I am not the

    LUCIAN "What do you mean she's not been here all day? She is your CEO for crying out loud. Are you telling me that not a single one of you thought about calling her and finding out where she is?" I yelled at Selena's assistant. I had come to her office to see her because I wanted to talk to her but I was told that she had not come in to work today, and I was really worried when I heard that. I knew she was a woman who cared about her work a lot. There was no way that she would stay away without a word. The assistant looked away from me guiltily. "I.....I called her and she didn't pick up. I assumed that she didn't want to come in today because she's been working really hard...." "You know that she would never stay away from work on purpose...you...." I wanted to go scolding the assistant, but I stopped myself. It wasn't as if it would help me find Selena. Finding out where she was and making sure that she was fine was the first thing in my mind. I brought out my phone and calle

    SELENA"My father is a man who only understands the language of violence. I have tried to talk to him several times over the years, but he just refuses to listen to me. I want to speak to him in the language he understands!" Adam told me. I shook my head. He really was not willing to be reasonable. "Do you think that just because he is my father I am going to let him get away with doing whatever he wants? I have already washed my hands off him and my mother. I know that she is never going to leave him. But I am not going to let him act the way he wants under my roof. Ariel was in that house yesterday. What do you think would have happened if she had seen him slap my mother yesterday? I just want to be a good father? " Adam asked me. I shook my head. I felt like Adam did not understand any of the words that I had been saying to him from the beginning. He was just doing whatever he wanted and using Ariel as an excuse. "It seems you didn't listen to any of the things I have been sayi

    I was sitting on the ground as I watched Adam pull Selena away. I was boiling in anger just watching them go. All of this was that woman's fault. She was the one who caused this. Adam wasn't that kind of person before! Ever since she came into his life ...I was upset just thinking about it! I wanted to get rid of her! "Someone....someone help..." I heard Philip call from inside the office. I rushed inside to help him and I gasped when I saw how beaten up he was! Adam was crazy! He was fucking crazy! "Call.....call the ambulance!" He said. .I nodded my head and started to make the call. ....Janet rushed to the hospital as soon as I called her and told her the situation. She was there in less than ten minutes. "What....what happened to him?" She asked me as she rushed to me. I eyed the older woman in front of me. I felt like she was also to blame for this. She and Selena were the cause of this situation. Adam hit his father because ha wanted to stand up for her. She was s

    "You want me to leave? I am sorry, but I didn't do that. I am not going to leave. You are quick at using your fists on defenseless women and children right? Well, since you like violence so much, I figured you would like it when you're the one on the receiving end. What do you think?" I asked. My father started to move away from me. "Adam, I don't know what your mother told you, but I know that you can't just listen to one side of the story. She..." I did not want to hear whatever excuse he had. I punched my father hard. He fell to the ground in no time. Time had really taken a toll on him and he was not as strong as he was in the past. It was better for me ..he had picked on me when I was a weak defenseless kid and I would do the same to him. "Adam! I am your father! How dare you treat me like this?" He yelled at me. I kicked my father, without a single care for our father son relationship. "It's exactly because I am your son. Where do you think I learned from this?! It's fro

    SELENA Ariel and I went back home together the next day. Because she was not willing to part with her father just yet, Adam drove with us back home. They even played some more before he had to leave. I felt awkward around Adam and I did not know how I was supposed to act. We had sex the previous night ..did that mean we were together? We did not get a chance to talk about it because Ariel had come knocking and we had to make ourselves presentable. I was tired of running away from Adam. I knew I loved him, I would never love another man the way I loved him In fact, I would never fall for anyone else. If I didn't get together with Adam, I would stay single for the rest of my life. I knew that he was really putting in effort to change and to be a better man for our daughter. I didn't want to keep running away from him when he was doing so much. I walked out with him when he was done playing with Ariel. I thought Adam was going to talk about what happened between us last night
